> "He loved her like a storm. She loved him like a lie."
Talia Vexx has spent her entire life running-from the bloodstained legacy of her family, from the eyes that have watched her every move, from the fire buried deep in her own soul. She was trained to be a weapon. Designed to destroy the man she was never meant to love.
Lucien Saint is a billionaire mafia heir with a dark academic edge, colder than marble and twice as sharp. He stalks in shadows, bleeds control, and doesn't believe in love... until her. Until the girl who shouldn't exist walks into his world with secrets that could tear everything apart.
Their love is toxic. Forbidden. Addictive.
And doomed.
Because someone is pulling the strings behind them both.
Someone who wants her dead, and him destroyed.
And when blood spills and truths shatter, only one thing is certain:
> You can't build a future in a temple made of glass.

LOVER GIRL
He said she was "different." Turns out, he told all of them that. Adina was never soft-just quiet about the storm building inside her. When she falls for Ethan, it feels like more than love... it feels like survival. But behind his charm hides a trail of lies, cheating, and recycled "I love you's" whispered into too many ears. Including her best friend's. This isn't a story about a girl getting heartbroken. This is about what happens after. After the DMs from other women. After the betrayal that cuts deeper than a man ever could. After Adina decides she's done being the one who hurts in silence. With blood-red heels and a playlist of revenge, Adina rises-not to forgive, but to conquer. Because soft was a setup. And now? She's writing the ending herself. 💔 Toxic Love 🔥 Street-Smart Black Princess Energy 🎭 Dual POV • Flashbacks • Confrontations 🖤 For fans of raw, messy, unforgettable romanceLengkap

the greatest show
She was born under a blood moon. Her first cry split the veil between worlds and summoned something ancient-something velvet-wrapped and bone-bound. Lucien Ravewood heard her scream before she had a name. He's been watching ever since. He was her imaginary friend. Her monster in the closet. The shadow no one dared name. Now the circus has arrived. The tent breathes. The ropes creak. The velvet sighs. And Lucien is no longer imagined. He's real. He's waiting. And he's hers-not by choice, but by curse. Beneath the crimson stripes and bone-laced lace, the Nightshade Clan runs a mafia empire built on silence, ritual, and possession. The performers are enforcers. The audience is prey. And the Ghost Train doesn't move through space-it moves through memory. This is not a love story. It's a haunting. A slow-burn descent into obsession, fate, and surrender. No spice. No safety. Just velvet-draped madness and a mate bond older than breath. Lucien doesn't seduce. He stalks. He speaks in riddles. He watches from mirrors that shouldn't reflect him. And when he finally speaks, it's not to woo-it's to remind her: > "You summoned me with your first scream. > You've been mine ever since." Welcome to The Greatest Show. You're not watching. You're inside it. And it's already rewriting your soul.Lengkap

His Innocent Obsession
I felt him before I saw him. The air shifted, heavy and electric, and then he was there - filling the doorway of my shop like he owned it. Like he owned me. His eyes dragged over me slowly, deliberately, until my skin burned. I told myself to look away, to breathe, to move - but my body betrayed me. Lucien stepped closer, the scent of smoke and danger clinging to him. He reached out, brushing a single petal from my shoulder, his fingers grazing my skin as if testing how easily I'd break. "You hide behind flowers," he murmured, voice low enough to curl around my spine. "But I see the truth. You're trembling for me." My lips parted, but no words came. My pulse thundered, my knees weak, and still I couldn't step back. He leaned in, his breath warm against my ear. "You don't know it yet, Dahlia," he whispered, "but you're already mine." Dahlia Hart lives a quiet life running her late father's flower shop a haven of color and calm in a world she keeps at arm's length. But one night changes everything.
