Désirée suffers from a strange affliction a pathological optimism under an authoritarian regime,
where last names dictate destiny and free will is nothing but a mask for control.
She believes in merit, in effort rewarded, though the system rewards only bloodlines.
Her parents gave her a name; now she dreams of giving it meaning at St. Saints Institute.
But ideals fray when survival demands imitation and when love tests conviction.
He is everything she despises, yet everything she cannot ignore. Across the city, Ana Maria dances through parties, fine food, and red shoes that gleam like sin.
Shiny, chunky red shoes She has everything - except roots. Or perhaps she has too many.
In a city built on lies and luxury, even faith is for sale. How do you stay true to yourself when even truth has a price tag?

Marked In Fire
She wanted freedom. He wanted forever. Neither was ready for the fire they would unleash together. They say love is meant to heal, to soothe, to bring peace. But what happens when love becomes the very reason you burn? vamika rai had spent her entire life living in borrowed choices-an obedient daughter, a silent listener, a girl who bent until she forgot the sound of her own defiance. Until one night, when her world snapped. And standing at the edge of her breaking point-she said yes to a man she should've run from. Reyansh Raghuvanshi. A name spoken in hushed tones. The kind of man whose silence feels heavier than screams. To the world, he is control-power wrapped in devotion, a believer of Mahadev whose every vow is carved from steel. But behind that calm lies a darkness no one dares to touch. A man carrying sins he never confessed, pain he never shared, and a love that doesn't bloom-it consumes. He doesn't fall in love. He claims. And when he wanted her, he didn't ask. He took. Their marriage was not a choice-it was a storm. A forced collision between her rebellion and his obsession, between her disbelief and his faith, between her fire and his shadows. She swore she would destroy every wall he built. He vowed she would never escape them. Yet beneath her trembling silence, there is another woman no one knows. A woman forged in secrets, veiled behind obedience. A woman whose fire runs deeper, darker, older. And when she awakens-every truth they buried will rise with her. This is not the story of a perfect love. It is the story of two broken souls tied by fate, bound by choices they never wanted to make. A tale of power, pain, and passion-where devotion becomes possession, and every scar tells a secret. Because sometimes, love doesn't come to save you. It comes to mark you. And once marked in fire-there's no turning back.

Oath in the Smoke
"I will obey you. Serve you. Heal for you. Die for you-if that's what you want. I'll be loyal only to you until the day you decide I'm no longer useful," she said. The firelight danced across his physique as his face stayed still. "I could make you do all those things as we speak." Lord Varric's voice was laced with threat. "You could," Silvia said clutching her hands to fists, "but not ever without a fight." ------------------------- When Silvia's village is burned, the survivors are dragged to the war camp of Lord Varric - a ruthless warlord whose name is spoken like a curse. She appears broken and obedient, but her eyes are sharp, her mind unyielding. His men are forbidden from touching the enslaved women of her village-not out of mercy, but because they are coin to be sold. Yet they do not listen. Desperate to protect what's left of her people, Silvia breaks free from her binds one night to tell the lord himself, only to be struck down before Varric's eyes. She survives through the power of her healing - and learns quickly that his men's crimes don't seem to sway him. With nothing left to offer in return for her villages protection, Silvia pledges herself - her body, her gift, her loyalty - to the man who destroyed everything she loved. An oath of loyalty, fear and unshakable resolve. Lord Varric accepts, not out of compassion, but calculation, keeping her close as a weapon, a healer, and a mind to sharp to waste. Yet even under his cold command, Silvia refuses to break. And behind her quiet defiance, Varric finds himself torn - driven to crush it, yet unable to look away from it. A dark fantasy romance of war, loyalty, and the perilous line between ruin and desire. #1 lord ~ 29.07.25 #1 forbiddenlove ~ 23.08.25 #7 hatelove ~ 03.09.25 #1 powers ~ 04.09.25 #1 enslavement ~ 28.09.25 #1 enemiestolovers ~09.10.25 #2 medieval ~ 03.11.25 #1 enemies ~ 20.11.25 #1 middleages ~ 17.04.2026 #9 darkfantasy ~ 16.07.2026 #3 fantasy ~ 19.07.2026Abgeschlossene Geschichte

Beneath The Facade
Celestia Hawthorne appears to be nothing more than a shy, nerdy girl at school, ridiculed by her classmates and ignored by most. Her baggy school uniform and reserved demeanor hide a truth no one suspects-Celestia is the daughter of one of the wealthiest families in the country. At home, she is the epitome of elegance and luxury: a fashionista who despises her drab uniform and a confident individual who commands her household with grace and precision. Her dual life becomes even more complicated when a catastrophic fire at school forces the students, teachers, and even the principal to take refuge in her family's grand estate. Suddenly, Celestia's carefully constructed facade begins to crumble as her classmates catch glimpses of the life she's been hiding. The story unfolds as Celestia grapples with the challenges of balancing her true self with the expectations of those around her. Her secret boyfriend, Sebastian Montclair, a charming and flirty heir she met at a gala when they were five plays a pivotal role in helping Celestia embrace who she truly is. As her classmates and teachers slowly realize Celestia is more than the quiet girl they underestimated, jealousy and admiration collide. Amid lavish dinners, interactions with her loyal household staff, and tender moments with Sebastian, Celestia must navigate the tension between authenticity and the demands of her social circle. Will Celestia's confidence and love for fashion shine through despite the judgment of those who once belittled her? And can she bridge the gap between the two lives she's been living to define her own identity? This story is a tale of self-discovery, love, and courage in the face of societal expectations, proving that true strength lies in embracing who you are, no matter what others think.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
