Some stories begin before the journey. Others start halfway through.
Onyx Brown is a 24-year-old high school orchestra director running from a past he can't quite escape. Betrayal, addiction, and the ghosts of those who left him behind still haunt his nights. By day, he teaches music with grace and focus. But by night, the silence swells-and everything he's tried to bury rises to the surface.
Some nights, he goes out-not for a hookup, but for something real. He's searching for love. For someone to see his worth, even when he can't. What he doesn't expect is to fall for a man he's never heard of. A man who doesn't even know if he can return the feeling.
A man who is just as broken as him.
But something about him-the quiet intensity, the sadness in his eyes-makes Onyx fall anyway. Because deep down, the man doesn't scare him.
He understands what it means to live with pain. And maybe, just maybe, he's the one person who might understand Onyx too.

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒚 𝑮𝒊𝒓𝒍'𝒔 𝑷𝒂𝒊𝒅 𝑨𝒄𝒕𝒐𝒓
**𝑺𝒉𝒆 𝒌𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒔 𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒎𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒚. He kills people for power. One dare will change everything.** Twenty-two-year-old Auriella Martinez lives for the nights-the parties, the drinks, the dares that pay just enough to forget the bruises her father leaves behind. With her long black hair, blue eyes, and reckless smile, she's the life of every party, the girl who never says no to a challenge. But behind the laughter and the liquor, she's drowning in secrets she can never tell. Then comes the dare that breaks all the rules: kiss Austin Blackwood for a hundred dollars. Austin is everything Auriella should avoid-wealthy, dangerous, and wrapped in shadows darker than the tattoos covering his skin. As a high-ranking member of a secret mafia organization, he's a man who takes what he wants and destroys what gets in his way. He's never let anyone close. Never cared about anyone. Until he tastes the party girl's lips and decides she's his. Now Austin is showing up everywhere-her café, her cheer practice, her favorite bars-watching her with eyes that promise possession and protection in equal measure. He sees the bruises she tries to hide, the pain beneath her smile, and he wants to save her from it all. Even if she doesn't want to be saved. Even if saving her means destroying everything in his path. But Auriella isn't looking for a savior. She's not looking for love. She's just trying to survive until she can escape the prison her home has become. The last thing she needs is a gorgeous, obsessive mafia man who looks at her like she's something worth killing for. As Austin's world of violence and power collides with Auriella's world of parties and pretend, the line between protection and possession begins to blur. Because Austin doesn't just want to save her-he wants to own her, body and soul. And he always gets what he wants. Even if it destroys them both. ---

HeArTlESs BuT YoUrS Book 1
⚠️ Content Warning This story is not for everyone. It explores dark emotions, trauma, abuse, and complicated relationships. Some scenes may be disturbing or emotionally heavy. It's about love, guilt, loss, and the painful ways people learn to forgive. If you're looking for something light, this isn't it. But if you want to feel something real - keep reading. When scandal strips me of my name, I'm sent away to a fog-covered mansion in the hills - a place meant to bury noise, not memories. My father calls it redemption. I call it exile. But the mansion isn't silent. It watches. It listens. And inside it waits Yahir, the boy who once hated me - and now can't seem to look away. Some loves ruin you quietly, like frost seeping through glass. Others devour you whole. As I try to rebuild what's left of me, the world keeps shifting around us: Freed and Volkan, trapped in a cycle of love and violence they can't escape. Ashar and Laith, bound by loyalty and ghosts of the past. And me - trying not to fall for the one person I was never meant to live with. Because love here isn't soft. It's punishment dressed as tenderness. And some wounds refuse to heal, no matter how far you run.

18+ content with sexuality and domestic violence and traumatizing experience _________________________ Life is not like a movie where we are born into a rich and perfect family, where our childhood feels like a fairy tale and everything we wish for magically appears in our hands. In films, parents never argue with us, never refuse us anything. Life flows smoothly, almost unreal. In those stories, when we become teenagers, we begin to "live." We go to night outs at friends' houses, attend loud house parties, wander into clubs, and return home late at night without anyone stopping us. We drive our own cars, free and fearless. One evening, we take the person we love on a long drive, the road stretching endlessly ahead of us. Under a sky scattered with countless stars, we stop the car somewhere quiet. The world becomes silent except for the sound of our breathing. We look at the person beside us, kiss them, and fall deeper in love in that moment. Years pass, and eventually we marry that same person. After all, we were always perfect in this imaginary story-so of course our parents approve without hesitation. After the wedding, we travel the world together, exploring new countries and chasing sunsets, living a life that seems endlessly joyful. Then one day, we decide it's time for a child. We imagine a small home far away from the chaos of cities, somewhere surrounded by nature. A garden blooms outside the house, and vegetables grow in the little farm we cultivate with our own hands. Every morning before leaving for work, we share a gentle kiss. And one day, many years later, we imagine ourselves growing old together, lying side by side on the same bed, taking our final breaths in each other's presence. But that is only what humans hope for - a beautiful, comforting illusionConcluída
