The roads were covered in white fluffy snow as the yellow street lamps lit the dark street. The source of light illuminated the girl's peerless countenance, enhancing her features yet making her seem ghostly.
Her violet eyes were void of any emotions as she gazed at the mansion in front of her. It was the place she once called home yet there wasn't a hint of excitement upon returning to this seemingly comfortable abode.
The youngest daughter of the Lazvane family, one of the four ruling families in S country has returned...
------
Hesperia eyed the handsome man lying beside with her brows furrowed, why was he here? Why are they naked? No, why is he alive?
"Honey, you're awake."
"...what did you call me?"
He was the only one who could make a crack in her expression...well usually not in a positive way.
What are the hidden secrets of the four families? What would happen if an icy heart meets a blazing flame?

His Ruthless Temptation
I saw her long before she saw me. She didn't know then that her fate had already been sealed, that every step she took was drawing her closer to me. Closer to what she would become. There was something in her-something fragile, something wild. A fear she tried to hide, wrapped in defiance and confidence. It was intoxicating, watching her, knowing that no one else could see what I saw. No one else could feel the pull like I did. The slow, deliberate unraveling of her world as it would soon be tethered to mine. I felt my heart beat once, hard and fast. It was the only signal I needed. She would be mine-not in some fleeting, hollow way. No. I would strip away every shield, every defense, until she was laid bare, body and soul. And when she looked at me for the first time, I knew. She was already mine. A. Trigger Warning ⚠️: This story contains intense and graphic content, exploring dark and disturbing themes that may be triggering for some readers.

Drenched in Betrayal
His voice was hoarse as he whispered against my ear, "Shh, love. Stop being so irresistible. I want to give you something." He pulled his fingers out of my pants, leaving me empty and frustrated. My eyes snapped to his instantly, a soft whimper escaping my lips. He took out a small, velvet box from his pocket, holding it out to me silently. Curiosity piqued, I opened it to reveal a pair of delicate gold anklets, tiny diamonds and rubies scattered along the chain. I looked up at him questioningly, but he just smiled softly, taking my left foot gently in his hand. He wrapped one anklet around my left ankle, securing it with a gentle click. Then he picked up my right foot, his touch reverent. "Fuck, love," he murmured, "You look even more beautiful with these." He leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to my left ankle, right above the anklet. I gasped, he smiled against my skin before kissing my right ankle as well. "Perfect." he whispered. ⚬──────────✧──────────⚬ Aarohi Arora, a soft-spoken, seemingly fragile girl with quiet strength buried deep within her.
