The Devil's Bargain was simple: Lucien would give Elara fame, fortune, and a passion that consumed her-if she gave herself completely to him. Every masterpiece she painted would carry his mark, every success tighten his hold, and every desire she felt would bind her closer to him. It was a choice, not a command, and in saying yes, she risked losing herself entirely-to love, to obsession, or to damnation.

Fated
"Lucien kissed me as if he was starving, as if he was desperate, as if he was a sinner, and my lips held the keys to his salvation. His hands snaked under his coat, exploring my body like he was on a mission, like my skin had the answer to all of his questions, his desires, his prayers." Obsessed with her neighbour across the hall, Nova spends close to three months watching his every move. Incredibly attractive, dark, and mysterious, Lucien is the perfect man for a harmless crush. It isn't until Nova is attacked one day that she discovers that there is so much more to her neighbour and that maybe, she was right about him all along. Lucien has been watching her for just as long, obsessing over her every move, scaring away every guy that even breathed the same air as her. In this mutual obsession, dark romantacy short story, both Nova and Lucien have to decide: surrender to their fate or fight it every step of the way.Complete
Crown of Obsession
After winning a singing competition, Elara boards a flight home-only to be pulled through a mirror during a sudden eclipse. She awakens in a medieval forest, bleeding from an arrow shot by a hunting king. King Lucien takes her into his palace to heal, but what begins as fascination with her haunting voice quickly turns into a dangerous obsession. To him, she is no longer a guest-she is his muse, his siren, his possession. And in a world where kings take what they desire, Elara soon learns that the most perilous prison is not the castle walls...but the heart of a man who refuses to let her go.
The Devil's Redemption
Once feared as a tyrant, Lucienne ruled with fire and darkness - until love forced her to face the one enemy she could never conquer: herself. At her side stands Elara, gentle yet unyielding, guiding her toward a redemption both dangerous and fragile. The Devil's Redemption is a tale of love in its fiercest and tenderest forms - of power transformed, of shadows softened, and of the eternal struggle between who we were and who we choose to become. For some, love destroys. For others, it redeems. For Lucienne, it does both.
CONVINCE THE DEVIL
She thought she could escape the darkness. But when fate bound her to him-the man they call the Devil-she learned that some chains are made of desire, not steel. He is powerful, dangerous, and untouchable. Yet beneath his ruthless mask hides a past carved with scars and secrets. Drawn into his world, she must decide if loving him will be her greatest sin-or her only salvation. In a battle between temptation and redemption, how far will she go to convince the Devil he's worthy of love
Deewangi 🔥
She never believed in love, not the way others did. For Maya, love was just a word people used to decorate their wounds. She was strong, independent, and determined to live life on her own terms-away from the shackles of unnecessary emotions. But for Tabish, love was not just a word. It was his madness, his weakness, his strength-all bound in one name: Maya. From the very first glance, she became his obsession. The world faded, people disappeared, and his entire existence circled only around her. She tried to run. He refused to let go. She hated his presence. He craved her silence. She wanted distance. He crossed every limit. This was not love... this was Deewangi. And sometimes, deewangi destroys everything in its path.
MY DEAD BROTHER
💀Some ghosts just won't let me be ... *** "Do you want to kiss me?" Lucien asked, licking his lips like he knew exactly what he was doing. Asshole. "I... I..." I hesitated, lowering my head, trying to remember how to breathe. "What?" he teased, lifting my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. "You what?" His lips brushed mine, soft enough to make my heart stop, cruel enough to make me want more. "Y... you're my brother," I finally croaked."This is wrong." He smirked, voice rough with sin. "Nothing was ever right about us, Pretty devil. One more sin won't change anything." And then he kissed me. My Dead Brother - a story of love that shouldn't exist, secrets buried in ashes, and a girl haunted by an adopted brother who refused to stay dead. ✨ Trigger warning ⚠️ * Graphic murder. * Organ trafficking. * Smutt. * Violence. * Cursing and use of sensitive language. ... Read at your own risk 😉😘. A simple rule, don't be rude or write mean comments if you don't like it then don't read it.
Beautiful Ruin
She ran from blood. He smelled it. Now he thinks fate gift-wrapped her just for him. Elara escaped a life built on violence. Running was her only choice, and freedom was her dream. Instead, she found a new kind of danger. Leo feels like salvation, the kind of man who would burn the world before letting it take her from him. There is something in his silence, in the way he looks at her, that feels both safe and terrifying. He does not want her fear. He wants the pieces of her she has kept buried, the ones that still remember what it means to be alive. But Leo is not the only one watching. Something moves in the dark around her, something that knows what she truly is. In this story, not all monsters want to hurt you. Some want to love you and never let you go.
The Blackthorn Syndicate
I can't pinpoint the exact moment when I knew my fixation had turned into an obsession. All I knew was, I was never going to let her go. I might have taken her as collateral, to make sure her father did exactly what I wanted but things had changed. She was mine now.
