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.

Crumbling Facades
Kill me" he said."Do it" My knife was pressed against his throat. Beads of sweat rolled down his neck,though he tried not to let his fear show, I could smell it miles away. He was scared, so so scared. His legs had given up, his breaths were shallow, akin to mine. I could, oh I really could end it right here, but something in me said otherwise, there was something that stopped me from doing so. - EIRA KNIGHTLEY - Eira was sure that she didn't deserve peace and prosperity, not after the sins she has comitted. But when she was given a chance of experiencing serenity, she was certain it was just an illusion. And when she thought she had figured out everything, a man whom she wasn't supposed to be acknowledged by, was now intrigued by her.

Tulips in the dark
Dr. Elara Voss has spent her career inside the minds of killers. As a criminal psychologist, she prides herself on recognizing patterns of obsession, control, and desire long before they spiral into violence. But when a single red tulip appears in her apartment-followed by another, and another-Elara finds herself caught in a game she cannot profile her way out of. Someone is watching her. Someone who knows her secrets, her habits, her fears. Someone patient enough to leave no trace except flowers and a thread of white. When a chance encounter at a café introduces her to a man unlike any she has ever met-charismatic, commanding, and far too interested-Elara doesn't realize she has stepped into the very shadow she's been chasing. He is not just a stranger. He is the Don of a ruthless empire, and he has already claimed her in silence. Drawn into his world of power and danger, Elara struggles to tell the difference between fear and fascination, predator and protector. The deeper she investigates, the more her own mind betrays her-because what terrifies her most is not that he's watching... but that she wants him to.
Shadowbound Hearts
Elara Vance (22) exchanged one prison for another. After years of quiet endurance, the desperate night she fought back and killed her abusive father landed her in Blackwell Penitentiary. Out of place, fragile, and marked by trauma, she craves the anonymity of the stone walls-but anonymity is a luxury Blackwell doesn't afford. The man who truly runs this world of steel and concrete is Asher 'Reyes' Thorne (27). He's an incarcerated crime lord, a kingpin serving multiple life sentences for calculated murders, whose influence flows like a cold current through every cell block. When Asher sees Elara-the quiet, defiant woman with fire in her eyes, jailed for justifiable violence-he doesn't see a victim; he sees a kindred spirit he intends to own. Their relationship begins as a terrifying contract: Asher offers her absolute protection from the brutality of the guards and the cruelty of the inmates. In return, she owes him only her attention. But in the confined, suffocating space of Blackwell, proximity is poison. Their tense, transactional meetings-whispered words across the common room, charged silence in the visiting booths-quickly ignite into a desperate, forbidden need. Elara begins to chip away at the monster, discovering the strategic intelligence and fierce loyalty beneath the calculated darkness. Asher, in turn, finds his iron control shattered by the fragile defiance of the one person he can't truly cage. Shadowbound Hearts is the story of two souls defined by violence, finding dangerous comfort in the one place they are most exposed. In a place where freedom is impossible, they must decide if their forbidden love is the ultimate act of rebellion, or the final, irreversible surrender to the shadows.
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.
