There was a man outside her gate.
Dark, Silent, Watching.
*Inspired by a terrifying dream I had, decided to turn it into a dark romance.
*Its a dark romance because it starts off a little wild , as in the way they meet, the conditions of their story are hugely impacted by the first chapter and it's obviously an unsavoury first meet. Her reactions are based on nothing but her own inhibitions, desires and choices and these circumstances.
Let me be clear, she has choices, this is not a CNC book, it's just a dark romance, romance being the key word.

The Rajpoot's Obsession
A dark romance story. ......... The alley reeked of damp stone and shadows. Her breaths came in sharp, ragged gasps, her heart slamming against her ribs like a desperate drum. She ran, but every step was predicted, every move hunted. And then he was there. Before she could scream, his body slammed into hers, pressing her against the cold wall. The night wrapped around them, but she felt the heat radiating off him like fire. His eyes...dark, endless, merciless...pierced through her, stripping every layer of defiance bare. "Don't... ever... run from me again," he growled, low and vicious, a predator savoring the hunt. "You belong to me. you are mine. only fucking mine" "Who said?I am not yours. " she protested. he chuckled and whispered "Said the way you breathe when I am this close to you. said the way you stare at my lips and said the way you are not pushing me now when I am not even holding you tightly." "You are my obsession....and when a mafia is obsessed with something it's so dangerous my rose...."

But by night, all that control narrows down to one obsession: Juliette. Locked away in his world, she quickly learns that chains don't always rattle and cages aren't always made of steel.

Silas doesn't just want to own her body; he wants to unravel her mind, to make her crave the touch she swore she'd never welcome. Every kiss tastes like sin. Every order drags her deeper into his dangerous obsession. The man who should terrify her makes her tremble for all the wrong reasons, and the line between hate and hunger blurs until she can't tell the difference. She should fight him. She should run. But the longer she stays, the more Juliette wonders if escape is the last thing she truly wants. Because Silas isn't just her captor. He's the dark secret she's terrified to need.

Twisted Desire I 🔞I ☑️ Completed
Disclaimer This isn't your standard dark romance. No forced marriage. No Italian or Russian sounding names. No instant love. No twenty-something virgin waiting to be "corrupted." And it contains an actual story line, that makes it interesting to read, with plot twists and turns. I can't stand "dark" male characters who are just shallow and arrogant with a leather jacket, so mine isn't. When he gets dark, it's genuinely unsettling, not sexy cosplay. A real redemption arc actually requires something worth redeeming, and this story doesn't shy away from that. I want you torn between wanting to kiss him or wanting to call the authorities. Dan is complicated, not because he recites cringy lines about his "darkness," but because he's built from more than clichés. If you roll your eyes every time a brooding man whispers "Can you handle all my demons?" and if you are looking for a storyline that it's more than girls meet boy - kidnap - love then welcome. You're in the right place. Now on the book: Dan is a ruthless mafia boss. Lilly is a kind strong girl who found herself in the wrong place at the wrong time. After she witnessed too much he decides to kidnap her. What begins as a game of power and punishment quickly spirals into obsession, blurring the line between desire and control. As secrets, betrayals, and other forces close in, captor and captive must confront a chilling question: is it love or just some kind of twisted desire?
