In a world built on ancient traditions of pomp and gold everything is but a show. Or nearly everything. Political marriages and names telling more than they should are ever-present.
But so is death and betrayal.
Aurelienne is being married to a son of a rival dynasty. At least that is what her mother thinks before poison drips into Aurelienne's wine and she falls backwards into the darkness...

Till Death Do Us Part
In the dark heart of wizarding aristocracy, love is the cruelest curse of all. Aurelia Black was once the shame of her bloodline-a supposed Squib destined to fade into obscurity. Now, she's the prodigy who saved Hogwarts, cloak in power, poise, and poisonous expectations. Her reward? A betrothal to her former friend turned bitter rival: Ominis Gaunt. Cold, cutting, and hellbent on escaping his family's legacy, Ominis has vowed to disappear after graduation. But when Aurelia discovers his plan, she proposed a dangerous compromise: she'll help him fake his death and disappear from his family for good-if he plays the devoted diance long enough to protect her reputation. What follows is a venom-laced charade of stolen glances and seething hatred, set against a background of opulent galas, glittering lies, and the weight of expectations. Fated to be enemies. Forced to be partners out of necessity. This is not a love story. (Slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers, angst, dark wizarding elite, arranged marriage) Told from Aurelia Black's POVComplete
The Heir Apparent - a historical why choose, rh, poly, MMF, spicy romance ✅
Distant descendant to the throne, Anevay was raised in a rural town where all she did was dream of life in the city, a life she knew she would never have. On the eve of her wedding to a man thirty-five years her senior, the kingdom is thrown into upheaval after a failed coup left her uncle, the king, and her cousins dead. And leaving Anevay herself... the heir apparent. She found herself torn away from the only world she'd ever known, and thrust into a position she was always told she would never hold. Queen. Palace life had none of the thrills of the city she'd dreamed about. But it did have several intriguing-and frustratingly handsome-men there, meant to assist her in her new duties as ruler. Riven, her guard, a headstrong and reckless man whose thirst for blood hid a softer, kinder side. Tolliver, her political mentor, an arrogant curmudgeon bent on making her feel a fool at every turn. Casimir, her personal palace physician, someone meant to know every secret of her body. And Penn, an ambassador from an exotic land she'd never even heard of, a devilishly good-looking and sensual man who always seemed to find a reason to be near. She was meant to be fixing the damage of the attempted coup, bringing her people back to the glory they'd once known, yet the lure of these men around her proves too strong to fight. But enemies abounded, threatening not only the relationships between Anevay and the men she was beginning to love, but the success of her kingdom, and her very life... * HEA. No triggers. Some swords cross (in all the ways that swords can cross), others do not. If you don't want to wait for new chapters, this book is available to purchase on your favorite retailers.Complete

When You Came
A little sneak peak of the story: He then reach my sweet spot and bit it harshly but the pleasure was overpowering the pain. My hands now moved to his hair and to his back, touching him. His hands were at the hem of my shirt and he slowly slid into them, he was caressing my stomach while attacking my sweet spot. He slowly pulled back and left me whimpering. He looked at me with eyes full of lust, I'm sure mine were the same. "Noah..." I begged. "Baby, I want to make you feel good." He said in a low husking voice. God that just made my lady bits do a little dance. I was stunned and just looked at him and slightly nodded. ❤ Aurelia dreaded going on the family trip to South Korea with her family for Christmas.

From afar, he looked so mysterious but once he opened his mouth and turned out to be an arrogant asshole, Aurelia had no choice but to dismiss him. But what happens when they meet again in Seoul?
