Steamy. Chaotic. Enemies to lovers. Drama. Family units. Stalking. Mental health. 

This office romance will make you, break you, and you'll most certainly feel all of the feels.

*****

Eleanour Blake (or Nora to her friends) is the epitome of a Girl Boss. Having worked her way up to one of the top roles in the London corporate scene, falling for a uni lecturer, Seb, and settling down, Nora has got everything figured out.
That's until Seb is no longer the 'nice boy' she thought he was, and Dominic Vale rocks her world.
The dark horse of the firm, the man with many secrets, and the type of person she should stay away from.
That's until her world gets turned upside down, leaving her lost, betrayed, and craving one thing.
HIM.

𝐍𝐀𝐎𝐌𝐈 It was bad enough working in a bakery with karens, but being an assistant is probably worse. Working at Cyber Tech is like highschool all over again. Gossiping girls who point and laugh. I just have to navigate my way through the waters of office politics. If only it were that simple. But amidst the chaos, I seem to have caught the eye of the enigmatic Rhys, a wealthy tycoon with a thirst for power and, what seems, a hidden longing for me. But I'm only here for the money. I just have to pay my rent, and I'll be fine. I'm determined not to succumb to the allure of my boss. But what happens when my heart and desires have a mind of their own? As our daily interactions blur the lines between professional and personal, I wrestle with my conflicting emotions. Can I resist the attraction surging through my veins? Or will my reckless heart beat against all logic? 𝐑𝐇𝐘𝐒 Naomi is more than just an infatuation; she is a desire that consumes my every thought. From the moment I laid eyes on her at the bakery, I knew she was meant to be mine. Willing to fight for what I want, I hire Naomi as my personal assistant, vowing to keep her safe and make her mine. But nothing is ever easy. As our worlds collide and past secrets unravel, we soon learn that nothing worth having comes without a fight. Can Naomi overcome her doubts and fears? Will Rhys prove himself worthy of her love? Only time will tell. {𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐔𝐀𝐆𝐄} This story has 18+ scenes, but I know most of you probably aren't 18, so enjoy.
Terms of Desire ni pooh_bani_parwati
21 parte Ongoing Mature
She met her boss the same way some people fall in love - loudly, recklessly, and with a crash. A fiery street-side argument with a smug stranger should've been the end of it. But when Arya Diwan walked into her new job - late, flustered, and fuming - only to find him seated at the head of the boardroom table, she knew this job wouldn't just challenge her résumé. Sahir Nanda is cold-blooded brilliance in a tailored suit. As the ruthless MD of a corporate empire, he doesn't tolerate mistakes - or backtalk. And yet, Arya does both. Constantly. Boldly. And somehow, irresistibly. What begins as a war of words and ego, turns into something far messier: stolen glances, breathless silences, and a chemistry neither of them has the power to ignore. But with power plays, buried pasts, and a two-week ultimatum hanging over them, desire was never supposed to get this personal. In a world of power suits and power moves, what happens when the person you were hired to impress becomes the one you can't seem to forget? Can desire stay professional? Or will their fire consume everything - including their hearts?

One drunken kiss was supposed to be a forgettable mistake. But when Victoria shows up for her new job, the man behind the desk-with icy blue eyes and a dangerously sharp jawline-is the same stranger she kissed on a rooftop. Jackson. Cold. Intimidating. Ruthless. And now... her boss. As his personal secretary, Victoria is drawn into a world she never expected-where tension burns hotter than professionalism and the line between power and desire gets blurrier by the day. He's a bully in a suit, commanding her with a single glance, pushing her limits, and making her question everything she thought she wanted. She should quit. She should run. But something about him-the danger in his voice, the way he dominates every room, the softness he hides behind harsh words-pulls her in deeper. She's submissive by nature, but being under his control isn't just about work-it's about surrendering to something darker, more irresistible. Can she handle working for the man who owns her body, breaks her pride, and may very well shatter her heart? A gripping strangers-to-lovers romance that blends power, obsession, and the forbidden thrill of falling for the one man she should avoid.

Damian Blackwood is a man who has everything-wealth, power, and an unshakable reputation as a ruthless CEO. Love? He never believed in it. To him, emotions were distractions, and relationships were nothing more than business transactions. But everything changes one morning when he accidentally spills coffee on a stranger at a café. Ella Carter, with her soft eyes and warm smile, isn't like the people he's used to. She doesn't fawn over his status or try to impress him. Instead, she simply cleans the mess, gives him a polite nod, and walks away-leaving him utterly captivated. For fifteen days, Damian returns to the café at the same time, just to see her from afar. He doesn't know why. He doesn't even know her name. But something about her makes his carefully controlled world feel unsteady. Then fate takes control. Ella walks into Blackwood Enterprises for an interview, only to realize the man from the café-the one who had been haunting her thoughts-is her new boss. Damian is thrilled but keeps his emotions locked away, offering her the job with a professional mask. As they spend more time together, the tension between them grows. Damian finds himself breaking his own rules, drawn to the warmth and kindness Ella brings into his cold, calculated world. Ella, in turn, sees glimpses of the man beneath the powerful CEO-one who's afraid to love, but even more afraid of losing her. Will Damian finally let go of his fears and embrace the love he never believed in? Or will his hesitation cost him the one thing he never knew he needed? A heartfelt, slow-burn romance about fate, unexpected love, and the power of simple moments that change everything.

Allison Waters has her entire high school life planned out-perfect grades, student council presidency, and absolutely no distractions. That is, until the school's biggest slacker, Nikolai Anderson, is suddenly forced to work with her. Nikolai is everything Allison can't stand-lazy, irresponsible, and far too smug for his good. He seems to enjoy annoying her at every opportunity, turning every interaction into a game of wits. But when their teachers decide that Nikolai needs to mature, he's assigned to help plan the Valentine's Day dance alongside Allison. Now, they're stuck together-choosing decorations, managing budgets, and spending way too much time in each other's presence. At first, Allison is convinced it's going to be a nightmare. But as they're forced to work side by side, she starts to see a different side of Nikolai-one that's funny, kind, and surprisingly thoughtful. Before she knows it, she doesn't hate his presence as much as she thought. Maybe she even enjoys it. But just as things begin to shift, rumors start spreading-ones that make Allison question everything she thought she knew about Nikolai. Betrayal stings, and suddenly, the growing connection between them shatters. With the Valentine's dance approaching and the truth finally coming to light, will Allison be able to let go of her pride and admit how she feels?
