He was a shadow on the street. She was the only one who noticed.
Night doesn't belong anywhere - not in the alley he sleeps in, not in the legacy he ran from. With one eye and a name that could set cities on fire, he disappears into shadows to keep the world safe from what he might become.
Then Eira stops.
She doesn't ask questions. Doesn't pry. Just takes him. Not just to her apartment - but into her rhythm, her warmth, her world.
What begins as a silent arrangement slowly cracks open into something deeper - a slow unraveling of walls, secrets, a past and the kind of closeness neither of them expected.
He says he doesn't feel anything.
But he watches her like he'd burn the world if someone touched her.
And she's starting to believe him.

The serpent
Genre: Dark Romance • Mafia • Enemies to Lovers • Slow Burn • Psychological Thriller Tone: Moody, intimate, and cinematic - think danger and desire intertwined. Set in Italy's criminal underworld, where every secret costs blood and every touch burns. ⸻ In a city where loyalty is death and love is the ultimate weakness, two killers must decide what they're willing to destroy-and who they're willing to save. She came to end his life. He might be the one to save hers. Setting Modern-day Naples, Italy. The world of The Serpent is drenched in shadows-grand villas on the Amalfi coast hiding brutal empires. The air smells of salt, smoke, and secrets. It's both beautiful and dangerous: marble halls with blood beneath the floorboards. Main Characters: Lilith Haynes - 17. An assassin-for-hire known for her silence and precision. She's covered in tattoos-each one marking a kill or a memory-and bears a scar across her back, a souvenir from escaping her abusive father. Outwardly composed, inwardly fractured, Lilith uses violence as control. She hides a deep capacity for love behind a wall of ice and sarcasm. Her code: Don't get attached. Don't get caught. Don't feel. But Cameron Nikolai will unravel all three. Cameron Nikolai - 18. Mafia don of the Nikolai Syndicate. Of mixed Italian and Russian descent, Cameron is a paradox-brutal and calculating in business, but deeply loyal to those he protects. His empire was built on revenge after his family's slaughter years ago. He's charming, strategic, and dangerous; he laughs easily but trusts no one.Lengkap

Rowan knows more than he should. About her past. About her revenge. About a ring that could burn kingdoms to ash. And with every fight, every sarcastic barb, and every secret half-spilled, Eira starts to wonder who is really holding the chain. Enemies. Prisoner and captor. Hunter and hunted. But what happens when fire meets storm-and neither is willing to break?

Addicted (GxG)
Briar felt her world crumbling as her father was offered a job in the States, promising double the salary and benefits that would greatly help the family. But none of that changed the fact that Briar would be leaving her life in London behind-her friends, family, and all the memories. Briar was the typical teacher's pet-never had a detention, always turned in homework on time, and never talked back. But that didn't win her any popularity in high school, and now, she dreaded making new friends at a new school. Arden was the complete opposite-having dropped out of high school years ago, she had terrible attendance, was always late, and did sloppy work despite being fairly smart. She never put in the effort and was constantly causing trouble. If she hadn't left on her own, she likely would've been expelled. When their paths cross at a party one night, Briar, who's never had a drop of alcohol or met anyone as reckless as Arden, finds herself thrown into a world she's never known. Arden, with her wild, self-centered attitude, challenges everything Briar thought she knew about life, leaving her conflicted and unsure of what to do next.
