In the cursed town of Eldhollow, silence is survival ..and blood is the price. Every year, one soul is sacrificed to keep the Devil's pact alive. Azrael, bound by fire and runes since childhood, is the reluctant executioner, delivering names chosen by the elders into the Hollowing's depths. But when Lilith ... a girl marked not by magic, but by memory ...follows him into the forest, the pact begins to unravel.
She was there the night Azrael was bound. Hidden in the trees with her father, watching the flames consume a boy who never screamed. For years, she's watched him from the shadows, reading the town's secrets, tracing the Devil's whispers, and listening to Azrael's cries as he returns from each kill. Now, the forest calls her by name.
As the altar cracks and ancient hunger stirs beneath the roots, Lilith must confront the truth: her father's disappearance, her connection to the pact, and the terrifying possibility that the Devil isn't just watching her...
He may be her blood.
The Devil's Favorite is a dark fantasy romance steeped in horror, grief, and forbidden legacy ... where love is dangerous, silence is deadly, and the forest remembers everything.

The spark and storm
They called her *witch* before they ever saw her power. On the night her village turned to flame, sixteen-year-old **Maya** watched her mother unleash a storm of crystal and fire to save them both. Now hunted and exiled, Maya flees into the forbidden **Blackwood Forest**-a place whispered to be alive, where spirits of light drift between the trees and ancient gods still dream beneath the soil. But something in the forest is watching her. Something old enough to remember her bloodline. And when it speaks her name, the world itself trembles. Bound by prophecy and shadow, Maya must uncover the truth of her family's power-the *Crystalborn*-a lineage once sworn to guard the earth's heart from the darkness below. Yet with every step deeper into the forest, that darkness awakens...and it knows her name. As the boundary between magic and madness thins, Maya will have to decide what she's willing to become to protect what remains of her world. Because some destinies are not chosen. They are awakened.

Power that binds love
💀📖 "Power That Binds Love" - A Dark Romantic Fantasy What happens when a soul cursed by Heaven catches the attention of Hell? Athena Vivalda is numb. Not broken. Not grieving. Just... void. She walks the earth with no dreams, no attachments, no care for the living or the dead - and certainly no faith in God. But one strange encounter sets her spiraling into a world that blurs the line between myth and damnation. Enter Azarel Dearil - a figure whispered about in ancient tongues. He isn't here to redeem her. He isn't here to destroy her. He wants her to feel. And that makes him dangerous. "You want death, Athena. I want to give you something worse." Because if she falls in love, she dies - not in body, but in everlasting guilt, tormented beyond hell itself. "Firstly, I'm not going against him, neither do I believe in him. He may have created me, but what gives him the right to demand I worship him?" "He's not the hero humans see him to be. He's the writer - he decides who gets to be the villain or the hero.".................................... 💔 "Fall in love, and you die." But death would be too easy for Athena Vivalda. Her curse promises something far worse - a life haunted by guilt, a soul trapped between Heaven and Hell. She's rich. Untouchable. Emotionless by design. Until he appears. Azarel Dearil - mysterious, magnetic, possibly the Devil himself - doesn't come to save. He comes to awaken everything she's buried. He offers her a deal: no contracts, no strings. Just one meeting a week. But the more they talk, the more she starts to feel... And the more she feels, the closer she is to destruction. God watches. Hell waits. And love might be the deadliest sin of all. 🔥 A dark fantasy romance about defiance, damnation, and a desire strong enough to burn Heaven down. Perfect for fans of forbidden love, morally grey characters, and slow-burn tension that explodes.Complete

The Hollow Throne - Book 1 : Beneath the Veil
He was sent to kill a threat. He brought her back instead. Now the Veil is shifting-and something buried is starting to wake. Nimya was supposed to be collateral. A mortal girl, found near a supernatural breach and marked by a scent not quite human. Commander Ryn of the Sentinarchs-god-born, oath-bound, and feared even by his own-should've followed protocol. Instead, he dragged her across the Veil. Now bound to a divine soldier she doesn't trust, Nimya finds herself trapped inside the Sanctum-a sacred fortress of rituals, relics, and bloodlines that see her as a threat. But something else sees her too. When Ryn touched her, the Veil stirred. Something ancient is watching from the other side. Something chained beneath the world-restless, patient, and searching for someone. As divine politics fracture and the Sanctum begins to turn, Nimya must survive a realm built to reject her... and a bond that was never meant to form. Because if the Veil falls, what's trapped beneath it won't stay buried. And gods will burn before it stops looking.Complete

He was a man of power, feared and worshipped in the same breath, ruling over the world of shadows where morality was a myth and sin was the only language spoken. Love? That was for the weak. He didn't do love. He didn't believe in innocence. Until her. She was untouched by the darkness he thrived in-a vision of purity, a forbidden fruit he had no right to crave. But the devil had never been one to deny himself temptation. And she... she was his greatest one. She should have run. He told her to. Instead, she stayed, unaware that the moment she stepped into his world, she became his. His to ruin. His to cherish. His purest sin. And now, even if heaven came calling-he'd rather burn than let her go.
