Some wounds beg to be reopened. Some lovers don't want to be saved.
Isadora Morales has spent years trying to rebuild her life-piece by shattered piece. She has a stable job, a steady relationship with Nico, and a carefully constructed mask that keeps the past buried.
But when Viktor, the ex-Dom who once owned her body and mind, resurfaces without warning, Isadora's carefully mended world begins to unravel.
She's loyal to Nico. She's healed. She's safe.
But safe doesn't make her ache. Safe doesn't make her burn.
Viktor was never gentle-but he made her feel alive. And now he's back, watching, waiting, pulling her into a twisted dance of pleasure, punishment, and possession.
As the lines between love and control blur, Isadora must choose between the man who gave her stability... and the one who broke her so beautifully, she still dreams of bleeding.
Ruin Me Gently is a dark romance of obsession, submission, and the brutal power of desire. For readers who crave broken hearts, dangerous men, and women who dare to fall apart on their own terms.

HER REPLACED GROOM
"You ruined me," I confess, my voice a rasp against her skin. "I can't fucking breathe without you. I can't think. I can't exist." My fingers trail down, skimming the curve of her hip. "And it's killing me." She trembles but doesn't push me away. Her silence is my undoing. I slam my hand against the wall beside her, caging her in, my breath ragged. "You want me to walk away? Tell me. Say it, and I will." Her lips part, but no words come. I let out a sharp, bitter laugh. "You can't, can you?" I tilt her chin up again, forcing her to meet my gaze. "Because you're just as ruined as I am." And then I kiss her. Hard. Desperate. A collision of everything we've denied ourselves. Because no matter how much I fought it, no matter how much I wanted to hate her- She's mine. And I'll burn down the whole damn world before I let her go.

She Called Me Dandelion
She wasn't looking for salvation- just survival. But when Dani steps into Amadora Quintero's world, survival begins to look a lot like surrender. This is a story of restraint stretched thin, humiliation turned intimate, and desire that bites only to lick the wound. -♥*♥- Dani is a traveler turned reluctant nanny after her world is upended. Drifting from place to place her whole life, she's learned to survive off scraps of kindness and the lessons strangers leave behind. But when she takes a job in the home of Amadora Quintero, a sharp-tongued prosecutor and single mother with a daughter as fiery as she is, Dani finds herself in uncharted territory. Amadora has built her career on control: in the courtroom, in her home, and within herself. But since Dani's arrival, restraint has begun to feel less like strength and more like a chain she's itching to break. Dani isn't sure if she's stepping into safety or surrender, and Amadora isn't sure if she wants to protect the girl... or ruin her. (Full Synopsis + warnings inside)

He watched her long before he ever touched her. Back when she lived next door - soft, curious, unaware - she thought his silence meant safety. She didn't know restraint could be more dangerous than desire. He was older. Controlled. A man built on rules he never broke. Until her. One moment shattered everything - a line crossed, a truth exposed - and then time pulled them apart, leaving questions, guilt, and an obsession that refused to die. Years pass. Lives change. But obsession does not age quietly. When fate brings them together again, the power has shifted. He is no longer just a man with secrets - he is a CEO feared and respected, a master of control. She is no longer the girl next door - she is his assistant, standing inches away from the past she never healed from. A secret marriage binds them - not with love, but with silence, tension, and unspoken rules. Every interaction becomes a psychological game. Every look carries history. Every touch feels like punishment... and craving. She tries to survive him with logic. Her heart whispers resistance. Her body remembers too much. This is not a story of comfort or easy redemption. It unfolds in phases - obsession, separation, longing, control - shifting between emotional intimacy, psychological warfare, and dangerous desire. Some chapters burn slow. Some chapters burn dark. Some don't burn at all - they cut. Because this is not just about wanting someone. It's about being claimed before you understand the cost. And when the past finally collides with the present, she must decide: Will she break free from the man who has shaped her in silence... Or surrender to the darkness that has always known her name? 🔞 18+ Only Dark Romance • Psychological Obsession • Morally Grey Slow Burn • Multiple Timelines • Forbidden Desire New chapter - Sunday and Wednesday ( per week )Complete

In Lilah's words - "I love you for many things. But I never told you that, and now I guess, I never will. Unless I can find some way to reach you. Some way to get a message in a bottle to arrive at the edge of your ocean. Is this what this story is? One long love letter to you?
