Six months ago, she walked away.
From the shadows, the blood, and the name that once struck fear.

Now she is Zoya-a woman living quietly in a small town, far from the chaos she once called home. She spends her mornings surrounded by the smell of coffee and fresh bread, her evenings in silence, convincing herself that the past no longer belongs to her.

But peace is fragile. And ghosts have long memories.

When her old life comes knocking, it isn't just her survival at stake anymore-it's her heart. Drawn once again into a world of power, betrayal, and hidden enemies, she must decide: will she keep running from who she was... or embrace the fire that made her Black in the first place?

*Can be read as a standalone but recommended to first read book 1 titled Mission- Forbidden Love*

Live For It by LyEr7107

He seemed like the devil. He was evil. Cruel. She was always portrayed as a weapon. A tool. An occasional use. One wrong turn -literally- and everything changes. What happens when she finally decides to stand up for herself? The once known 'shy' assassin is now a runaway killer. Will she be able to protect the people she loves while fighting for her title? That arrogant and dangerous man, Zion Armani, who has a past trailing to hers...They meet again. Forgiveness is a difficult concept. Two broken souls from two different sides. Many failed attempts, many murderous frenzies, and many unretrievable mistakes. Her concept of life is far-fetched compared to others, one of the many things that makes her so human and so real, even if she was taught to refuse it. Could she battle the wars in the underground world while an addicting man fought against her? A chase? Not necessarily. Will she find a reason to keep going? Will Zhara Di Maggio find something --or someone-- to believe in? Will the Golden Raven prove her fate wrong and find her own reason to live? ~~~ Zion Armani, even the darkest hide from his shadows. Zhara Di Maggio, the only brightness left. "You know how to live, you're just too scared to do it."

Black Veil by suryaisis111

Raine Alder, a skilled assassin with no past, is a man who kills without hesitation. Cold, precise, and haunted by shadows, he takes on a mission to eliminate a dangerous cult leader. But when he infiltrates the organization, he meets Lucian Graves-the enigmatic, bloodstained ruler of the cult known as Black Veil. Lucian isn't just another target. He is terrifyingly beautiful, dangerously intelligent, and utterly obsessed with Raine from the moment he lays eyes on him. Instead of killing him, Lucian decides to claim him. Trapped in a mansion filled with horrors-where the walls bleed secrets and the servants whisper prayers to something far worse than gods-Raine finds himself tangled in a deadly game of power, lust, and madness. He should hate Lucian. He should kill him. But he doesn't. Lucian's darkness calls to him. His touch is both punishment and pleasure. His love is violent, possessive, and absolute. As enemies hunt them and the cult descends into chaos, Raine and Lucian must fight for survival. In the end, Raine will have to choose: escape Lucian's grasp or fall into his abyss forever. And Raine has never been one to run.

Splintered Illusion by groovygia

BEWARE: the writing in this is from when I was younger, and is extremely cringey and cliche. I advise you not to read this because the writing in this is no longer a representation of my writing, and I think reflects very poorly on me. Instead, I'd love it if you tried out my newer book, which is in my opinion, much better than this. Just a suggestion, but either way, it's your choice. You've been warned. They strived to make their love perfect. To make their love into an illusion of what could've been perfection. But they were beaten and bruised. And so was their love.

Sorrow | 18+ by brocolisoeur

A tale of two sorrowful souls who crossed paths due to a trivial coincidence. His eyes will forever ravish her, his lips will leave eternal marks and one word will haunt her until she dies. She has learnt to be quiet and sweet. He has learnt to dominate and kill. She is trying to find herself from the depths of distray. He is planning to destroy what is needed for power. Falling in love will be too dangerous, too alluring. And in the end it will hurt. Breathing should be effortless, loving should be painless. What does a girl who has learned neither? When you find home in the arms of a killer, to whom you cannot tell your secrets, without risking yourself. And why would you risk anything for a man who believes bullets can fix a broken heart.
