She was sold to survive. He was bred to fight. And the woman training her might be royalty-or something far more dangerous.

Amara never asked to be part of the pit. But when she's thrown into an alien arena where blood is currency and desire is weaponized, she learns fast: trust no one, feel nothing, and fight harder than anyone else.

Except Orien bleeds for her.
And Soryn watches her like she's already hers.

Wounded warriors, forbidden touches, and secrets buried beneath the sand-Amara is caught between two fighters bound by a past she doesn't understand and a future she might not survive. But when Orien calls her k'vethi and Soryn kisses her with the weight of a kingdom, Amara realizes the rules of the pit were never meant to protect her.

They were meant to break her.

Empire of Scars by lynnbliss1245
8 parts Ongoing Mature
**She saves lives. He takes them.** Amara Jensen has survived poverty, her parents' addictions, and raising twelve siblings while fighting her way through medical school. She's learned the hard way that men leave, love destroys, and trust is a death sentence. Then a stranger pulls her from a dark alley where thugs left her broken and bleeding-and she can't forget his haunted eyes or the way he made her feel safe for the first time in her life. Cassian Vitale doesn't do relationships. The mafia boss built his empire on fear and control, inheriting power at seventeen through blood and violence. At twenty-nine, he trusts no one, feels nothing, and rules his city with absolute authority. Until he hears her scream. Until he can't stop coming back. Until she becomes the one thing he'll burn the world down to protect. One night. One brutal attack. One impossible connection between a struggling medical student and the most dangerous man in the city. But when jealous rivals strike, buried trauma resurfaces, and an unexpected pregnancy binds them together, Amara faces an impossible choice: Can she trust the dark protector who makes her feel whole? Or will loving Cassian Vitale cost her everything she's fought so hard to build? **Sometimes the monster is the hero. Sometimes safety comes with blood on its hands. Sometimes love means surrendering to the one person who terrifies you most.** *A dark mafia romance about two shattered souls finding healing in each other's broken pieces.*

I felt the bed dip as he sat down on the other side but I focused solely on my task until I was done. "This is a pillow barrier. Meaning, you don't breach this side of the pillows." I instructed, my voice firm. "What if I don't want anything between us?" Phoenix said in a husky voice, and I risked a glance. Bad choice. His eyes were dark and his gaze was on my lips, to my chest, then back to my lips. "Eyes up here, buddy." I snapped the third time his eyes went down to my chest. All he did was turn off the lights. When it was dark, he whispered," Can't I admire what is mine?" I had no answer, and turned on my side. He sighed. Despite taking two naps today, I was out cold the minute my head hit my pillow. I could only hope that in the morning, the pillow barrier was still there. ***** Adira has a secret, one she would do anything to protect. She's built barriers around her heart, so strong that only the most powerful force could break them down. Adira was an Alpha's daughter, 19 years old, and didn't want a mate. She was too focused on figuring out what her deadly secret meant for her and those she loved. When she discovered her mate was Alpha Phoenix, she was sure the Moon Goddess was trying to punish her. As truths unfold and loyalty is put to the test, her secret comes to light. Those she loves and the ones who would hurt her without a second thought find out, and she finds out a certain Twin has her in his sights. Will she open up to Phoenix? Will he break down her walls? Or will they both drown in truth's untold? (The first book in the Hybrid Series.) #4 in Werewolf #4 in Possessive mate *You may cry, laugh, smile, curse and/or experience mood swings while reading* * Warning: Not as cliche as it first seems:)*

"Trespassing in a commoners home is 1 year in prison...2 if you're discovered to be a thief. The laws on Crex are pretty strict... but to trespass into the palace?" She let out a low whistle. "That's pretty bad." Great. Neo thought, this was just what he needed. Not only was he currently being humiliated by wearing this movement restricting collar, but now he was currently being sassed by a Vaulkarian female that should be in bed and resting. ~~~ Neo Adranni is a charming, puns ahoy kind of guy. In fact, he's not just any guy. He's secretly a prince from planet Valaria who ran away in search for something greater, and so far he thinks he's got it. The life as a thief has been WAY more exhilarating then sitting around in a palace learning proper etiquette. (And of course it's always nice being Vaulkarian, the most gorgeous of humanoid aliens, especially when your in the mood for a quick bump in the night.) Jacquelyn Wake, a small servant girl with a lot of tricks up her sleeves. She's adored by the Queen of Crex, so much so that she's even considered to be the adopted daughter. She works to earn her keep, to help in any way she can if there's a job to be done, against the Queen's wishes might I add. However, despite all this, there has always been something... off about her. She's always watching. Always listening. And always seems to be in the right place at the right time... A true tale of love that only just barely SCRATCHES the surface of what is to come for the galaxy. After all this is just BOOK 1 "Sometimes... Love is worth dying for."

Never in my life had I imagined that I would be kidnapped.

NO! REMOVE IT PLEASE!! AHHH I DID AS YOU ASKED ME TOO YO- AHHHHH " I pleaded, begged, cried, but nothing worked in front of them. They are not human; They are monsters, my monsters who never miss a single opportunity to remind me who they are. _______________________________________________________ I thought They would stop If I resist, I thought They would give up If I say No, I thought They would leave me alone If I didn't let them have their way. But I was wrong. They will never stop, never give up, never leave me alone, not until they have me, my body, my mind, my soul, but even if they had it all, I doubt they will let me go. It's like I am his new favorite game which he loves playing because he knows he will always win. It's like I am his new building block, which he loves building only to destroy a second later.

Rejecting the Alpha by Vielle_
49 parts Complete Mature
Kylie survived the brutal destruction of her pack only to discover her cold alpha mate was the one responsible for the brutal slaughter of her family and pack mates. She can't forgive and she won't forget. Kylie cooperates with his demands while she searches for a way to free the remaining survivors and herself. Success teaches her just how complicated mate bonds can be and gives her the chance to choose her own fate. "Screw the mate bond. If I went for his throat while he was driving in human form, I might be able to kill him right now, and if I didn't succeed, the resulting accident might. I leapt for the front seat, powerful jaw ready to rip out his throat as he had ripped out my family's to take my revenge. Without even taking his left hand off the wheel, he blocked me by getting his right forearm between my jaws. I bit down as hard as I could, wishing to break his bones and sever the limb. Worse, I felt the tingles of our first contact where violence had connected us. The iron of his blood mingled with the other scents around me." (This is a dark story, but not the stereotypical one where she falls in love with her captor. This is the story of escape from a toxic relationship and finding healthy love.) MATURE content including violence, dubious consent, intimacy, and mature and other possibility upsetting themes like threats of suicide and miscarriage. Not intended for the 18- crowd, sorry. #1 in Protective (10/23/21, 02/02/22) #1 in Pack (10/24/21)
