Two years ago, the virus came - and the world broke.
Seventeen-year-old Aria Vale survived when almost everyone her age died. What emerged from the virus is something no one can control. She can absorb pain and protect those she loves, but she can also inflict it - and with a touch, she can shatter bones like glass. Every heartbeat is a risk. Every touch could be lethal.
Alone, hunted, and untouchable, she should have nothing to hold on to. Then she meets a ragtag group of survivors - broken, haunted, and alive. Among them is Jace, nineteen, a fierce and cautious survivor who sees her as a danger he cannot trust. But as they fight to survive together, the line between hatred and something deeper begins to blur.
In a world where power decides life and death, Aria must learn to control the storm inside her... before it destroys everything she has left - and everyone she's come to call family.

Bound By His Shadow ( The Vincolo Series - Season 1)
CURRENTLY UNDER EDITING!! ________________________ I never believed in MONSTERS until I met him. Men like him don't walk in the light. They are not mentioned by name, their DEEDS are not chronicled, but their HANDIWORK is all around. It began with that one night. At the time, I thought nothing of it. I didn't know that was the night everything would change. The first time I entered his DOMAIN, it was an accident, I had no idea what I was stepping into. But the second time, however, was intentional. I returned for a job-nothing personal, just BUSSINESS. Something I could easily leave behind when it was over. Oh how naive I was !! His world is not the one you can walk into and out of unscathed. It is built on unspoken agreements, lies that run too deep, and truths too dangerous for most to handle. And every moment spent here pulls me deeper into his orbit. I thought I could keep my distance instead I found myself getting closer to him, much closer than I'd ever planned or wanted to be but close enough to almost forget what he really is and that's the problem because deep down inside me still lies this knowledge of how it ends. If he knew why exactly I am here he would not hesitate for a second before putting a bullet through my head! Walk away now while you can ? I Can't! Somewhere along this twisted path of fate and fate's cruel jokes about control and power over others' lives, the ILLUSION began creeping into my mind. That somehow I had CONTROL over everything. That somehow I was PLAYING the game! But no! Never once I ever was the PLAYER but only just a PAWN in this game called BLOOD AND THRONE!! ____________________ ⚠️ WARNING This book contains mature themes and strong language.
Ruined Softly
It started with a moan behind closed doors. It ended with her blindfolded, wrecked, and begging for more. Aria was the quiet assistant. The good girl. Until the night Roman Hayes caught her touching herself - not to porn, not to fantasy... but to the sound of her boss fucking someone else. He didn't fire her. He offered her a choice: Enter his world. No strings. No shame. No one can know. Now she's crawling through velvet hallways in stilettos, learning what it means to be owned, worshipped, and ruined by a man who swore he'd never love again. She calls him Sir - but nothing feels casual about the way he touches her. Nothing feels safe about how fast she's falling. He said it was just an arrangement. She said she could handle it. But obsession doesn't play by the rules. And when softness ruins a man like Roman... there's no going back.Complete

This time, (Y/n) is in control. With a mysterious space at her command and a body reborn in beauty and strength, she won't be the villainess waiting for death. She will be the storm that rewrites the game. She was meant to die as the villainess-but now the world and its men will kneel at (Y/n)'s feet. ~~~ PS: -This story is originally mine. -Credits to the owners of the images and songs used. -Please don't copy or plagiarize.

[1] Apocalypse: Third Rebirth
What would you do when four men come into your life and completely turn it upside down?... All I wanted to do was hide away on my ranch with no one to bother me, but apparently, they had different plans. Luckily for them, this was not my first zombie apocalypse. If they learn to listen, we might just get out of this with our lives. If not, maybe I would finally be able to rest in peace. Li Dai Lu was born and raised Canadian in her first life. This meant that she was taught how to share, how to put others first and to keep the peace as much as she could. However, that all backfired in a spectacular way. Reborn in a new time and place, Li Dai Lu did her best to protect all those that she could from the zombies that were wiping out the human race. Unfortunately for her, those she rescued were not as grateful as they should have been. Killed by the very people she saved, she held her breath and waited for the calm, peacefulness of death. But the Fates were not too accommodating and our heroine woke up in her third life, a year before the zombie apocalypse. This time she would live life on her own terms, and to those that disagreed... well, she would have a few words for them. With four men at her side, she will shed the cloak of civility and become who she was truly meant to be. WARNING!!! This will turn into a Reverse Harem. Mature Content and Vulgar Language on board, and Rage Bait at the start.Complete
