In the gilded halls of the Corvane estate, Lady Evelina Corvane lives a life of duty. Bound by bloodlines, politics, and an unyielding father, she is expected to marry for power, not passion. To love freely is a luxury she has never been permitted.
Then comes Lord Lucien Morvain-the scandal-ridden noble whispered about in every drawing room. He is dangerous, magnetic, and already promised to another. Evelina knows that even a glance in his direction could destroy her reputation... yet she cannot look away.
What begins as stolen glances in candlelit chapels and secret words at masked balls soon spirals into a desire neither can resist. But their union is forbidden, their families' fragile alliances resting on Evelina's obedience and Lucien's silence.
To surrender to temptation is to risk ruin.
To resist it may break them both.
In a world where honor is currency and betrayal lurks behind every velvet curtain, Evelina and Lucien must decide: will they defy society for a love that could consume them-or be torn apart by the shadows that bind them?

SEX AND SINS (The Alpha's Forbidden Claim)
WARNING: MATURE CONTENT. RATED 18+. 90% STEAMY Selene never expected the thick darkness her life was about to plunge into. A young, new-adult wolf raised under the strict expectations of her aging father and the proud legacy of her ancestors, she's lived by every rule-rules meant to keep her from losing to the rival dynasty threatening to claim the throne from her family, the prestigious Ravencrofts. But the one person she thought would protect her shatters her instead. Her father's cold, public humiliation cuts deeper than any enemy's blade, all because of the one flaw she can't control-her heat. It surges too often, too powerfully, even outside mating season... and now it's a curse she can't escape. Broken and burning for release, Selene seeks reckless oblivion in the city's most dangerous den of demons-a forbidden club dripping with sin and shadow. There, she collides with a sinfully irresistible stranger drawn to the wild, unrestrained heat she can't hide. One night is all it takes for him to brand himself into her body and soul-a night of decadent, breathless pleasure she'll never forget. But when the haze fades, Selene learns the devastating truth. The man who consumed her? Her older sister's Alpha husband. He's already tasted her. He wants more. And he'll stop at nothing-no law, no loyalty, no taboo-to claim her completely. Now Selene is caught in a storm of forbidden desire, torn between resisting the man who could ruin her and surrendering to the sinful pull that could destroy them both. Because the only thing more dangerous than his touch... is how much she wants it.

Ashes Of Vow And Solace
Her anchor. Her solace. Her Husband. He is the stillness in her whirlwind. Nikolai Adrian Petrov, the supreme head of the wicked Bratva brotherhood in Russia, a notorious strategist of the Cosa Nostra, and an emotionally detached, and manipulative lawyer. Everyone envied him for the power he held, and the mystery that clung to him like a second skin. Behind closed doors, he built empires from shadows, orchestrating chaos. He embraces twisted and cunning behavior. He wore control like a tailored suit. Some said he had no heart. Others believed he buried it long ago beneath layers of logic and ice. No one dares and want to cross paths with him; it's a cold embrace of oblivion. The grave they won't escape. His life. His haven. His Wife. She is the calm in his chaos. Svetlana Katerina D'Bianchi, a former successful super model and a hobbyist artist. She's an alluring and decisive woman. She makes her own rules, makes her own way and makes no apologies. She knows what she wants and how to tame it, when to work the angles and when to work her curves. Yet, all of that was cruelly snatched from her by her devious husband. · · ─ ·𖥸· ─ · · They married not for love, but for reasons unclear, Two lives intertwined, yet distant, sincere. No passion, no warmth, no promises spoken, Just quiet routines and hearts left broken. But time, like the seasons, has its own way, And where there was nothing, something began to stay. A bond slowly grew, soft and undefined, Love blossomed, though hesitant, hard to find. Then fate turned cruel, its hand so cold, Shattering what once had begun to unfold. Blame took root where once hope had bloomed, And silent hearts in bitterness loomed. Years passed in shadows, both trapped in their grief, Wounds left untended, no relief. Until a whisper came, with quiet despair-A truth so fragile, a truth laid bare. Time, once endless, now runs thin, Can love survive, or is this the end?

"𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩, 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚." Olivia groaned and crossed her arms, standing her ground. "Don't tell me what to do. You're not my dad." Amusement filled Santino's gaze as he stood up, abandoning the papers he desperately needed to read and sign. Yet, all that was forgotten as her bewitching lips protruded. "I might not be your dad but," a midnight lock of hair was pinned behind her ear, "I can be your papi." Shuddering, her body drew closer to him, betraying her mind. "You're sick." Taking the nape of her neck, Santino leaned down, his lips brushing against her ear. "Yet you still dream about my touch, don't you, principessa?" ❦ When Santino Adriano discovers that the Bratva has betrayed their neutrality by secretly working with his family's enemies, he's determined to send a brutal message that cannot be ignored. His target? The Bratva kingpin's sister, Olivia Morozov-a sheltered girl who knows little to nothing about the dark underworld her family controls, having been shielded from the darker truths of her family's empire her entire life. Fresh out of boarding school and blissfully oblivious to the power struggle boiling beneath her feet, Olivia is suddenly whisked away from everything she's ever known and thrust into a world where loyalty is weaponised and power is the ultimate prize. As secrets and long-buried lies unravel around her, she realises she's caught in a game where the unrelenting fight for power holds more value than human lives-including her own. Santino is cold, calculating, and relentless - everything Olivia should fear. Yet, she is intrigued by by his deadly nature. The line between fear and attraction is thin, and like a moth to a flame, she seeks him out, unafraid of the burn it may cause. She's never known anyone like him-an older, dangerous man who makes her question everything she thought she knew about desire. Olivia just didn't expect her captor to be so handsome.

HIS TESORO✅ [The Sinister Series]
"No-please-don't do this!" Seraphina sobbed, her voice cracking as she clung to her eldest brother's wrist. "I-I'll be good. I'll do whatever you say, just don't-" A sharp crack echoed through the room as his palm struck her cheek, sending her crashing to the marble floor. Pain exploded across her skin, but it was nothing compared to the terror clawing at her chest. From above, his voice was cold. Unmoved. "You will marry him." She shook her head wildly, crawling backward until her spine hit the wall. "He's a monster," she whispered, her breath shuddering. "He's not human. Please, don't make me do this. I'll die." Her second brother crouched in front of her, grabbing her chin roughly, forcing her to look at him. His lips curled, eyes void of warmth. "Then die." Her breath hitched. "But you will die as his wife." The door behind them creaked open. Heavy footsteps. Her father stepped inside, his expression unreadable. "Lock her in this room," he ordered. "She will not step out until her wedding day." Sera thrashed as hands seized her, dragging her toward the massive iron doors. "No! Please-Father, please!" But he didn't even look at her. The last thing she saw before the door slammed shut was her brothers standing side by side, indifferent as she was thrown into a fate worse than death. Then darkness. And the only thing left was the suffocating truth. She was a sacrifice. A bride to the Sinister, a devil himself. #A STANDALONE BOOKConcluída
