Deception

A dark romance where obsession and manipulation blur the lines between power and desire.

Scarlett never expected her new job to come with a familiar face one she'd hoped to forget. The woman in the tailored blazer, cold eyes gleaming beneath the strobe lights of a Miami nightclub, now stands at the helm of Scarlett's career: Her new boss.

What begins as a seemingly professional dynamic quickly spirals into something far more dangerous. Beneath the surface of polite smiles and sharp instructions lies a twisted game one neither of them fully controls. As tension simmers and boundaries dissolve, Scarlett finds herself tangled in a seductive web where nothing is as it truly seems.

Is it obsession... or all a deception?

Scarlett is about to learn just how deadly blurred lines can become. Especially when her past comes into playAll Rights Reserved

Luminous Obsession: Book One by LeooSznn

He watches her. He follows her. He knows her every move. To him, she isn't just a woman-she's the obsession, the one light in a world he'll burn down to possess. Livia Vale never wanted to be seen this closely. But the stranger who shadows her isn't a stranger anymore-he's in her life, her thoughts, her veins. Every warning sign tells her to run, yet every stolen glance pulls her deeper into his orbit. ⚠️ This novel contains themes of psychological control, obsession, and morally complex relationships intended for mature audiences. As his devotion twists into control and his love bleeds into obsession, she's forced to confront the truth: some cages are built not from iron, but from desire. In a game of predator and prey, can she resist the darkness that craves her-or will she surrender to a passion that was never meant to set her free?

Until You Break by Mnemosynic_Psychora

Until You Break He was supposed to heal her. Instead, he made her his obsession. When Evelyn Hart walks into Dr. Adrian Blackwell's office, she's desperate for someone to put her back together. He's brilliant, composed, and impossibly charming-the kind of man who seems to see straight through her defenses. For the first time, she feels understood. Safe. Seen. But safety comes with a price. Adrian doesn't just want to fix Eve-he wants to shape her, mold her, own her. And the closer she draws to him, the more the lines between doctor and patient blur into something intoxicating... and terrifying. Eve knows she should run. Adrian swears he'll never let her go. In this twisted tale of love and control, healing turns to hunger, desire turns to obsession- and everyone breaks, eventually.

"If it's you, you will find a girl who's much better than me. One who will be much more helpful to you. Of course, the company..." His eyes were shining clearly even in the smoke. "All I want is you." He gently swept the back of her hand with his fingertips. She tried to avoid his touch, but he grabbed her wrist and refused to let go. "I've spent a lot of time on this wedding. I took you to an important gathering of acquaintances, and I put a lot of effort into finding a wedding gift and a new house for newlyweds. You've wasted the time of both our families and mine." "So... what do you want me to do?" "Who knows. What should you do?" He inhaled the cigar deeply and exhaled a thick smoke again. As the smoke rolled in, clear tears formed around her eyes. He gently wiped the corners of her eyes. The moment he first met her, he muttered as he stared at her neat face, which made his heart stop. "If you don't like it that much, I can't help it either. We have no choice but to find an agreement." "An agreement...?" "There's something that needs to be gone, right?"

[ON HOLD] An age gap dark romance. She wasn't afraid of his darkness; she craved it - and he let her crawl inside, knowing she'd never find the way out. • ✧ • Her obsession started innocently enough. A glance, a spark - nothing more than an attraction at first. But as days turned into weeks, and weeks into months, she couldn't escape him. He was everywhere. In her thoughts. In her dreams. And she couldn't stop herself from wanting more. He didn't make it easy, though. Cold, distant, and guarded - he kept her at arm's length. Yet, the pull between them grew stronger. Every glance, every subtle touch, sent a shock of electricity through her. And though he fought against it, something in him, too, started to stir - a feeling he wasn't willing to acknowledge. But there was a secret. One she couldn't yet uncover. He was hiding something. Something dark. And somewhere in the world, as she lost herself in him, someone was killing people, one by one - a faceless killer, leaving no trace behind. The name? No one knows, but they call 'The Phantom.' As the mystery deepened, she couldn't help but wonder... Was she falling for a man who could destroy her, or was she already lost in his web, unaware of the danger lurking just beyond the surface?

Heavens Gate by WriterMolly2021

She's undercover. She thinks she's in control. She couldn't be more wrong. Detective Callie Hart has made a name for herself as the NYPD's most fearless undercover agent. Her next target? Reneè Rapp-gorgeous, untouchable, and rumored to run the city's most dangerous criminal empire from behind the velvet curtain of her exclusive nightclub. Callie goes in posing as a broke bartender looking for a second chance. Reneè hires her. But here's the thing: Reneè already knows who she is. Instead of exposing her, Reneè keeps her close. Flirting. Testing. Manipulating. Every glance is a game. Every touch, a threat. And the deeper Callie gets, the harder it is to tell who's playing who. When a fellow officer turns up dead-executed with a message meant for her-Callie is forced to choose: finish the mission and risk losing herself, or fall for the woman she was sent to destroy.
