A master of shadows and secrets, she moves flawlessly through a world where people are mere pieces on a chessboard. Then he appears - a quiet enigma wrapped in vulnerability, submitting with a fragility that unsettles her. But beneath his silence, something dark stirs-an unspoken power that defies control.
Drawn into a dangerous dance of dominance and surrender, the line between hunter and prey blurs. Whispers of past betrayals, hidden scars, and buried truths ripple beneath their connection, threatening to unravel everything.
In a world where trust is a weapon and love a risk, what happens when the masks fall and all that's left is raw, unguarded truth? Sometimes, the most shattering revelations come from the quietest voices.

𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎 𝒃𝒐𝒚 | mattheo riddle
He shows up in her dreams time and time again, the pretty boy with scars on his face and sparkling eyes one could never forget... but he was never supposed to be real. He was supposed to be a fragment of her imagination. Well that's what Jaya Levine thought anyway. Her disbelief in the existence of this mystery boy was brutally proven wrong, when he made an appearance at Hogwarts... and from the moment she was introduced to him, her heart shattered into a million pieces. Hatred. That's what she felt towards him, that's what she felt towards Mattheo Marvolo Riddle, son of the Dark Lord... and so she swore to herself that her detestation towards him would never change. He would always be a player. A manipulator. A cigarette addict. A major red flag. Someone she would want to stay well away from. Turns out, that's a lot harder than it looks.Complete
Crown of Shadows
She is elegant, strong, and carries a past no one knows-a childhood shadowed by loss, heartbreak, and sacrifices that shaped her into a woman both graceful and guarded. He is a prince, cold and untouchable to the world, carrying secrets of his own, a life dictated by duty, rules, and the crown he never chose. When their paths cross, the world outside stops making sense. She doesn't know he's royalty, and he hides behind a mask of distance, but neither can ignore the pull growing between them. In a palace of whispers, hidden agendas, and family intrigues, every glance, every touch, and every unspoken word becomes a battlefield of desire and restraint. As past wounds resurface, old secrets threaten to destroy them, and everyone around them seems to have an opinion about what love should be, can two hearts that have known pain and sacrifice find their way to each other? Or will the shadows of their pasts keep them apart forever? A story of slow-burning romance, royal intrigue, hidden identities, and love that fights its way through every obstacle.
Ashes of the Vow
An assassin with secrets. A man with scars. Love was never supposed to be part of the deal. "We can't," he said, his voice rough but final. The rejection was a physical blow. Humiliation, hot and sharp, washed over me, followed immediately by a fury so intense it blurred my vision. I released his jacket like it was on fire, snatching my hand back from his chest. Of course. Of course. I shoved open the van door, the metal screeching in protest. I practically fell out into the garage, needing to put distance between us, needing to breathe air he hadn't just stolen from my lungs. "Thorn-" he began, his voice following me out. I spun around, cutting him off. The words came out laced with a venom I didn't entirely feel, a weapon to match the hurt. "Don't. Just... don't." I was furious. Furious at him for starting it. Furious at him for stopping. But most of all, I was furious at myself. Furious for wanting it. For leaning in. For letting him make me feel, for one stupid second, like I was cared for. When Thorn-an elite assassin with too many secrets-collapses on the doorstep of Ash Penbrook, she expects death, not rescue. Ash is a powerful businessman with his own scars and a vendetta against the same organization Thorn once served. Forced into an uneasy alliance, their world becomes a battlefield of ambushes, betrayals, and buried truths. Survival draws them closer, but trust is dangerous-and love even more so. As enemies close in, both must decide: are they each other's salvation...or the final weapon that will destroy them?
Vows of Obsession

The moment his eyes found hers, the rules shattered. He didn't care about boundaries, bloodlines, or the cost of breaking her world part. He wants her Completely. Dangerously. Obsessively. And she knew from the very first day. He wasn't the kind of man you can escape. Because Once a predator marks his prey... It's already too late.
SHADOW BETWEEN US
Megan's life was simple: avoid love, dodge the past, and never, ever open the wrong door. But when a chance encounter pulls her into a world of shimmering wealth and whispered danger, 'simple' becomes a thing of the past-and survival takes a dark, seductive twist. Her new reality? Glittering parties where secrets outnumber the champagne flutes, shady deals that demand blind loyalty, and a man who smiles like trouble and kisses like salvation. But Megan knows better than to trust anything-or anyone-that feels too good to be true. Especially when the skeletons in her closet are rattling louder than ever. Now she's walking a tightrope between the life she's built and the risks she can't resist. Every choice is a gamble, every moment a carefully balanced lie. Because in this game, one wrong move doesn't just cost you love-it costs you everything. Sharp, sexy, and crackling with tension, Megan's story is a masterclass in playing with fire. But here's the thing about fire-it burns. And Megan is about to find out just how muchComplete

He is not a hero. He doesn't save-he claims. She lives in silence, carrying truths she never learned how to speak. She knows better than to trust fire... yet she keeps stepping closer. In a world built on silence and unspoken rules, their paths cross where they shouldn't. He offers safety wrapped in dominance. She offers loyalty without realizing its cost. The deeper she falls, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Because fire doesn't warm forever. And shadows remember everything. His Fire, Her Shadow is a slow-burning dark romance filled with tension, emotional intensity, and a love that blurs the line between want and need. What begins as control turns into obsession. What feels like protection becomes possession. And love-when it finally appears-demands a price. Once chosen, never released. 🔞 18+ | Dark Romance | Possessive MMC | Secrets & Control
