Some therapy heals. Some therapy possesses.

When ambitious psychology student Elira Vaughn is selected for an elite mentorship under the elusive Dr. Cassian Rhys, she believes her future is finally in reach. But Dr. Rhys isn't just a brilliant therapist-he's a puppeteer of the mind, known for manipulating desire and trauma into a kind of devotion.

As their sessions spiral from professional to erotic, Elira realises Cassian's methods go far beyond academic curiosity. 

They call him a genius. A healer. A monster. Healing is only skin-deep. Control cuts deeper.All Rights Reserved

WICKED THINGS by Shoki018

Genre: Dark Romance/Psychological Drama Summary: Zariah (17, turning 18) is a brilliant but emotionally scarred sculptor from the south sent to Marae Institute, an elite boarding art school known for producing prodigies and hiding scandals. Haunted by a childhood accident, the recent suicide of her best friend and the death of her Mom, she arrives guarded, mute, and numb. Her only therapy is her clay where she shapes all the screams she can't say. Then she meets Elián Wolfe a 19-year-old painter, infamous, secretive and dangerously magnetic. He's on his final warning from Marae after being expelled from his last school. Rumors follow him: one girl swallowed pills after being with him, another disappeared. His hobby is to paint in the basement, alone always in red. He notices her before anyone else, watches her when she thinks she's invisible and he tells her, "Your hands are beautiful when they're shaking." When Zariah finally sees the painting Elián has been working on, it's her, broken and naked, covered in words from her personal journal. She realizes he's been inside her room, reading her diary, stealing her nightmares. But she doesn't run... Instead, she adds the final touch to the painting: Her own blood.

Speak of the Devil by tirorights

Zara Reyes is a prison therapist. Matteo De Rossi is a mafia heir with a body count. She's supposed to stay detached. He's not supposed to care. Neither of them follows the rules. When Zara is assigned to Halworth Correctional Facility, she expects the usual-cold stares, heavy files, and men too far gone to reach. She doesn't expect him. Matteo is the kind of man they warn you about: dangerous, intelligent, and still terrifyingly charming while cuffed to a table. But as sessions turn into something messier, darker, and more intimate than either of them intended, Zara finds herself pulled into a world of secrets, power plays, and bloodstained loyalty. He sees her. She can't look away. And in a place where even the walls have ears, falling for the devil might be the last mistake she ever makes. Perfect for fans of morally gray men, forbidden romance, and slow-burn tension that turns lethal.
