"Tethered"
He thought the worst day of his life was when he destroyed everything.
He was wrong.
Dragged into a marriage he never wanted, Auren is bound to the man who ruined his life - a husband whose obsession runs deeper than love and sharper than hate.
Every day feels like a gilded prison: kisses that burn, promises that choke, and a wedding ring that feels more like chains.
He can't escape.
He can't forgive.
But most terrifying of all...
He's not sure he can resist.
In this twisted game of power, love, and betrayal, the question isn't who will break first - but who will still be standing when the strings finally snap.

Chase the Villian
Two childhood friends. One turned golden boy loved by all, shining on the court and in the classroom. The other became a shadow dangerous, sharp-edged, and unapologetically cruel. Years later, college brings them back into each other's orbit. But nothing is the same. Not the stolen glances, not the late-night silences, and definitely not the way one of them now feels like the beginning of a war. What begins as a slow unraveling soon spirals into something darker. Secrets claw their way to the surface. Loyalty turns to obsession. Love becomes a game of power, punishment, and possession. This isn't a story of soft touches or sweet confessions. It's about chasing the villain, even when you know he'll ruin you. Especially when you want him to. Some stories aren't written to be safe. Some are written to hurt and still, you beg for more.
CHAINS OF DESIRE (b×b)✓
Every story has a villain. And we grow up believing villains never win. That they are punished, destroyed. But when the villain wins... then??? . . This book has no fairytale, no happy ending... only a dark love story twisted with obsession, running, caging, torturing, and everything that drags you into the shadows. The description isn't nice I know. I was too lost inside the prologue I didn't even get time to shape these words. But if you want to read about love turned into chains, about obsession about torture then read this story. And after you read the prologue... if you want to write a description for me you can. I'll add it🤞🏻Complete

The silent crown
In a kingdom where Omegas are bartered like coin, peace is sealed not with ink-but with vows. When Prince Caelan, the last jewel of a fallen realm, is forced into an arranged marriage, he knows survival means silence. Gentle, obedient, and bowed beneath the weight of his crown, he endures every cold glance and cruel word with lowered eyes. His new husband, King Alaric, does not hide his hatred. To him, Caelan is nothing but a chain around his neck, a reminder of conquest and compromise. Their union is a political noose-never love. But within palace walls, silence speaks louder than rage. As plots coil in shadows and loyalties fracture, Alaric begins to see that his quiet, suffering Omega is far more dangerous-and far more precious-than he ever imagined. A crown won in blood. A marriage forged in hate. And an Omega who refuses to break.

𝐈'𝐦 𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮." He was the man she once loved-the same man who now wants to break her. To him, she's a liar. A traitor. A woman who sold her soul and shattered his trust. So he forces a ring onto her finger, not out of love-but punishment. What he doesn't see is the girl beneath the guilt: broken beyond repair, hollowed by choices she never wanted to make. She hides it all behind clumsy laughter and sunshiny smiles, hoping he'll never notice the tremble beneath her touch. But behind his cruelty is a storm even he can't control. And buried in her silence is a secret that could ruin them both. In a world where hate is easier than love, will their masks fall before their hearts do? What will happen when he will know the truth? Will he leave her or regret every word he spilts on her?

Any fantasy? Dark-" The words caught in my throat the moment I realized what I had almost asked. A man I had nearly killed minutes ago. The knife resting between us spun lazily over the hard surface of the car hood, metallic sound slicing through the silence after every turn. Seven rounds of truth. Seven times it had stopped at him. Not me.Him. Rain-heavy clouds crowded the sky above us while distant thunder rolled across the empty highway. He leaned back against the car as if none of this bothered him. As if the blade wound on his thigh wasn't still bleeding beneath his dark clothes. "Darkest?" he repeated slowly, a smirk tugging at one corner of his lips. My fingers tightened unconsciously around the handle of my knife.He noticed. Of course he did. "Going rough under a storm like this," he said without hesitation, his gaze lifting toward the dark sky around us. "Where she sounds wilder than the rain falling on us and-" . . "And-?" I asked before I could stop myself. His eyes returned to mine this time. Completely. "And... seven rounds." The way he said it-calm, shameless, certain-made heat crawl beneath my skin despite the cold wind brushing against us. "Why specific to seven?" The question slipped out instantly. . . His gaze darkened with amusement. "Mm..." A sharp hiss left his lips as he pressed his palm harder against the blade wound on his left thigh-the same wound I had carved there moments ago. . . His brows lifted teasingly before he winked. "Why?" His voice dropped lower. "You want more? Ten?" . . "Go to hell." . . The next second, my back pressed against the hard surface of the car hood while he stood over me, trapping me beneath him. . . "Why seven?" he whispered against my ear, his voice almost drowned beneath the storm. "From 06:55 PM till 11:56 PM..." His grip tightened slightly against my nape. "You said 'I hate you' seven times, Petal." . . "That's why." . . "And this time-the rain approved me" [ STUDENT PROFESSOR DARK ROMANCE]
