In the heart of Makati's gleaming towers and designer boutiques, Julius "Jules" Santillian III is the epitome of success: a sharp, impeccably dressed wealth advisor with a taste for the finer things - and a secret darker than his tailored suits.

Beneath the velvet exterior lies a man who sees the world as a game of control, where power is currency and morality is just another transaction. In a city obsessed with status and appearance, Jules navigates the cutthroat corridors of privilege, testing the limits of charm, influence, and violence - all with the calm precision of a killer whose touch is as soft as velvet but just as lethal.All Rights Reserved

COMPLETED✔️ What follows is a violent clash of worlds, where elegance is destroyed by brutality and innocence is trapped by a darkness far deeper and more dangerous than anything she imagined. Her dream of becoming the greatest ballerina, praised by her parents and supported by a loving friend was once the perfect vision of her life. But fate with its cold indifference doesn't follow the paths we choose. Instead it controls our lives. In one sudden turn her world is flipped upside down and she meets a man who is nothing like the one she dreamed of. He is ruthless, consumed by his own ego, a mystery to all who encounter him. His abilities are beyond comparison, his morals fractured and ambiguous, and his true intentions buried beneath a veil of darkness. Where once she believed her life was guided by passion and elegance, she now finds herself thrust into a world governed by dominance and brutality, where survival no longer hinges on talent or grace but on submission to a far more unforgiving force.

Her family is broken, she's growing apart from her only friend, and it's been a while since she's stopped dreaming about anything better. She embarks on a trip to Latin America, joining a retreat she hopes will mend her dwindling friendship and escape her miserable day-to-day life. Bad turns to worse, and her hopes are shattered when she is kidnapped by a cartel. While her life is miraculously spared, she's kept captive by a daunting and narcissistic drug lord, Pablo. As his obsession with her grows, so do his favors and promises. Sarah soon finds herself in a gilded cage, living a life more lavish than anything she's ever imagined. But all that glitters isn't gold, and this luxury has a price. If Sarah wants to escape the violent, treacherous, and cocaine-fueled world of cartels, she'll have to fight the demons that keep her captive, as well as the monsters in her head, armed with nothing but a dry sense of humor and a fragile strength. But as she and Pablo both know- it's a long journey home when you don't have any home to go to. _____________________ DTOD is marked as mature for strong language, drug use, violence (and also dark humor) and the occasional steam/smut.

Elysian Heat (GreatInn) by Boys_in_Bloom

Welcome to Elysian Tower-Bangkok's most exclusive high-rise, where wealth whispers through marble halls and scandal rides the private elevator. Inn Sarin, heir to a global fashion empire, arrives with vintage Louis Vuitton trunks, a personal stylist, and a mouth that doesn't know how to whisper. He's dramatic, fabulous, and very much not here to make friends-especially not with the smug, unreadable man next door. Great Sapol is a private equity investor with a penthouse and a past no one dares ask about. He's the kind of man who can silence a room with a glance-and turn up the heat with just one smirk. When these two impossibly rich men become next-door neighbors, sparks fly-through walls, elevators, and very quickly, bedsheets. What starts as mutual attraction spirals into stolen glances, playful power struggles, and nights neither of them are ready to talk about. With four other dangerously attractive couples already living under the same roof-including old flames, scandalous brunches, and more than one midnight skinny dip-the question isn't if Great and Inn will fall for each other. It's how much heat the Tower can handle before someone gets marked for good.
