A dark royal enemies-to-lovers romance

Laura was sent to the royal estate to refine her ballroom technique-at least, that's what they told her. But from the moment she arrives, the halls feel too quiet, the air too heavy, and her instincts whisper that something isn't right.

Then she sees him.

Matteo. Cold. Beautiful. Dangerous.
A man she vaguely remembers... and desperately wishes she didn't.

Their first lesson is laced with tension. His stare lingers too long. His words cut deep. And when the truth clicks into place-when she remembers why she knows him-Laura realizes she's not just dancing with a stranger.

She's dancing with a monster only she remembers.

But secrets don't stay buried in velvet halls. And the deeper she's pulled into his orbit, the harder it becomes to tell whether he's her enemy... or the only one who truly sees her.

"Darling." He smirked and eyed my lips. "Promises can be broken." "I don't break promises," I aimed to assure. "I know because I know you." He stretched his palm to caress my chin and this time, I didn't flinch. "How?" I croaked. "Because I've watched you." His hand moved to brush my hair away from my face. "I know about your schedule, when you sleep, how you like your tea, how you interact with strangers, even down to the kind of shampoo you use." He is a stalker, get away from him! My subconscious screamed at me Instead of me to do that, I did the opposite by asking. "Why, do you know all these?" He simply chuckled and inched his face closer, we stared into each other's eyes for what felt like a decade before he shifted to my ear and whispered. "Because you are my mate." ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Tanya Marie Andre. A female writer who has read many werewolf books but never believed them to be real. Diego Dante Domino.

THE PROMISE OF US by Treasuredwords
21 parts Ongoing Mature
The Promise of Us A forbidden romance simmering beneath years of loyalty, longing, and unspoken desire. Description: For most of my life, Matteo was untouchable - the man who raised me when the world fell apart. He kept his distance, followed the rules, and hid behind the promise he made to my grandfather. But I'm not a child anymore. And the way he looks at me now? It's not the way a guardian looks at a girl he's sworn to protect. It's the way a man looks at a woman he's trying hard not to want. In our sleepy Italian town filled with gossip and old ghosts, desire becomes a dangerous secret. The more I push, the more he pulls away - until one night, everything changes. One look. One touch. One kiss we can't take back. But Matteo isn't the only one with secrets. My mother's past holds truths that could destroy the fragile world we've built. And when a rival from Matteo's life threatens both his heart and his business, I'll have to decide if love is worth the risk of losing everything - including him. The Promise of Us is a slow-burn, age-gap romance full of heat, heartbreak, and the kind of tension that doesn't let go. If you love protective men, forbidden kisses, and heroines who choose their own path, this is your next obsession.

"It's not even a marriage." He moved like a storm, pinning her to the wall with just his presence. "You're right," he murmured, fingers trailing up her waist. "This isn't love. This is power.

She has lived her whole life paralyzed by fear-literally. Tonic immobility traps her body whenever terror strikes, leaving her vulnerable in the moments she needs her strength most. But nothing could prepare her for the night she opens her eyes to find a stranger in her bedroom-a shadow from the darkness, a man who has always lived by danger and never by emotion. Yet something in her silence, in the way she trembles but doesn't run, awakens something unfamiliar in him. Love. Curiosity. Possession. What begins as a nightmare soon becomes a dangerous dance between hunter and prey, where fear feels like passion and danger tastes like desire. She's fighting her own body while he's fighting the one thing he never believed in: his heart. In the end, can love bloom between a man who was never meant to feel, and a girl who was never meant to survive him? This story is a work of fiction. All rights reserved.
