Bound by the Sea
The sea gave her freedom. The sea took it away. Lyriana of the Coral Court has always belonged to the ocean-fierce, wild, and untamable. But when her mother, the Sea Queen, orders her to marry a prince she doesn't love, Lyriana flees her kingdom in search of her own destiny. She dreams of freedom beyond duty and thrones, but freedom comes with a price. Caught in a storm above the reef, Lyriana is trapped in a fisherman's net and dragged aboard the Sea Serpent, a pirate ship commanded by Captain Rowan Blackthorn-a man known across kingdoms for chasing legends, not obeying laws. Fierce, clever, and haunted by secrets of his own, Rowan sees in Lyriana not a monster to fear but a mystery to claim. Imprisoned far from the water that gives her life, Lyriana must fight to survive among men who see her as treasure, a weapon, or a curse. But as she learns more about Rowan, she discovers he's searching for something deeper than gold-something the sea itself may have hidden. As their worlds collide, old myths rise again. Curses stir beneath the waves. A power older than both sea and sky begins to awaken. Torn between hatred and a strange pull toward her captor, Lyriana faces an impossible choice: Escape back to the sea and abandon everything she's begun to feel... or risk her heart-and her freedom-to uncover the truth about the tides that bind them. Because some bonds aren't made by chains. They're made by the sea.
BLOOD AND LACE
BLOOD AND LACE "He said I was his salvation. I never knew salvation could feel like a cage." She was a poor girl who wanted freedom. He was a mafia boss who wanted her. When their worlds collided, love stopped being a fairytale... and became a weapon. ------- ️ STORY WARNING This story contains themes of dark romance, possession, violence, and emotional obsession. It's not your typical love story - it's a tale of passion that blurs the line between devotion and destruction. Read at your own risk. ------- INTRODUCTION They say love can save you. They never said it could destroy you too. I was just an ordinary girl - broke, tired, and invisible. The kind of person the world forgets. Until the night I saw something I wasn't supposed to see. A murder. A secret. A man with eyes like midnight and a voice that could both ruin and worship you. Adrian Velasco. The name everyone feared to whisper. The heir to the Velasco syndicate - cold, ruthless, untouchable. He should've killed me. But instead... he took me. Locked me in a mansion made of marble and lies. Called me his. He said it was to keep me safe. He said I belonged to him. And somewhere between his cruelty and his care, I forgot how to live without him. Because when a devil loves you, something even the devil feared
These Vengeful vows
They were promised to each other before they could even speak. Heir to an empire. Daughter of a legacy. Bound by a deal neither of them asked for. She's learned to live with the panic that shadows her nights, the anxiety that claws at her chest when the world becomes too much. He's learned to bury the ghosts of his past under power, wealth, and a name that opens every door. But the marriage contract changes everything. One bed. One future. No escape. And just when they begin to see beyond the walls they've built around themselves, a message arrives: I know who killed your mother. The sender? A man the groom once called brother. Someone who lost eight years of his life while he walked free. Someone who wants revenge, not just on him, but on the family that destroyed everything. Lies will surface. Loyalties will shatter. And in the middle of it all, two broken souls will have to decide if they can trust each other... or if love is just another trap waiting to break them.

The covenant is ancient. The god is hungry. This season, Ama is chosen. But Ama doesn't drown. A stranger who is scarred, silent, and speaking a language she has never heard pulls her from the water. He will not explain why he saved her. He will not tell her what he's running from. And she cannot ask, because the river took her voice as payment for the life it was denied. Now she is cursed. Voiceless. Hunted by something older than the dust they run on. And the only person standing between her and the water's teeth is a man whose hands know how to save... and how to destroy. ♦ 𝗗𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗔𝗳𝗿𝗼-𝗳𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗸𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲❟ 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗰❟ 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝘁 ♦ 𝗗𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗢𝗩 - 𝗮 𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗴𝗶𝗿𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗵𝗮𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿 ♦ 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗕𝗼𝗻𝗲❟ 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝘀𝗵❟ 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗻 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝘀𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝘜𝘱𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘚𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘺 · 𝘛𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘥𝘢𝘺 · 𝘛𝘩𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘥𝘢𝘺 ⚠️ CONTENT WARNING: violence, sexual content, grief, spiritual horror, themes of sacrifice.

Blood in the Water: Shadows Beneath the Waves
Erythéa, daughter of Poseidon, was born to rule the tides and the creatures that inhabit the ocean's depths. Her song echoes among the waves, and her power is young, just like her. Ashmodan, heir to Beelzebub and to a mortal who gave him life at the cost of his own, carries within him the weight of two natures: infernal blood and the human heart. Since childhood, fate has intertwined them-but also separated them. An ancient law forbids their union, leaving their story silent and their intimacy lacking. When Erythéa is presumed dead, swallowed by the very sea that consecrated her, Ashmodan refuses to accept the end. Between forgotten kingdoms, dangerous pacts, and enemies rising from the darkness, he will face gods and monsters to bring her back. But not alone. With the help of the Ascension of Hell, Ashmodan will traverse the world to find his way. ㅤⵗ𖥔゚。 ׄ ꒡છ𑄾̲︭︪ꜝ . ! ꕮ͠ ﹒໑ ׄ ꒡⦙𑇡͜ᩙ౾᷎֪ڲ﹒ꜝ . ! ﹒✿ 🌊.
