Marina Bianchi built her life on distance. From her father. From his world. From the kind of power that leaves blood in its wake.
She designs spaces that feel safe. Clean. Controlled. Untouchable. Until a single project pulls her back into the shadows she thought she left behind.
Rowan Carter is supposed to be ordinary.
A quiet presence behind a bakery counter. Steady. Observant. Safe in a way nothing in her life has ever been.
But nothing about him is accidental.
And nothing about their connection is harmless.
Because while Marina is being drawn back into a world she refuses to belong to-
Rowan is already inside it.
Watching.
Waiting.
And when the truth comes out, it won't just break her trust. It will destroy everything she thought was real.
Some love is collateral.
Some choices burn everything down.

"Previously known as... Scarletstroke: Girl assassin" * No hesitation * No killing of children * No killing of innocent people * No emotions * And defenitely, NO falling in love ~ Those are the main rules code named Scarletstroke, former assassin Scarlett Gonzales lives by. She is a highly-trained, highly-precise and highly-dangerous killer who considers herself the same as any other businesswoman, doing 'just her job' and convincing herself that she is dealing with 'just her target' rather than a person. She succeeds in contract killing better than any known assassin that ever existed and successfully ignores all feelings or emotions, knowing that they tend to make the "job" not go as planned. So when a new contract comes in and the mark is a certain gang leader that caught Scarlett's eye, she couldn't resist venturing deeper into a world filled with illegal activities on a personal mission to find out why he has a price on his head. Although, what she finds in that world isn't quite what she expected. Now, torn between duty and passion, Scarlett must decide if she pulls the trigger or if she becomes the target herself? Who knows, maybe he might be the answer to her deepest desires. Because her next target: Cayden Carlisle. +++ The culprit took in a deep, calming breath. "You may as well shoot me now, but just know that I am still going to kiss you." By the time he grabbed her waist with one hand and her wrist, connecting to the hand holding the gun, with the other... she was lost. Completely gone. She never stood a chance. His smell, his mouth, his soft growling noises. They were more than enough to disarm her. "I finally figured something out about you." He whispered, pulling her closer, trying to meld every part of her to him. "You display all your emotions through body language. In this case, your hand is betraying your mask." Every word of his was chosen for maximum impact. No wasted syllables, no extra breaths. Just facts.Cerita Lengkap

Strength and Sensuality [Completed]
A modern Pride and Prejudice story. Only sexier. Mira is a refugee, starting a new life far from home. She has to deal with her troubled past, her son, and her enigmatic boss, while her only weapon is her killer sense of humor. It's a slow-building love-hate story, with a strong female lead; two control freak lawyers, fighting for dominance, in denial of their feelings; an alpha discovering his submissive side; lots of humor and humanism. ~73K words ~~~ Warnings: - Mild language. Characters talk like white-collar workers usually do in real life. - Chapter 43 has mild sexual content. It isn't very graphic, it's emotional, rather, but if you don't want to read about it, just skip it.

It has the ability to convey the emotions stirred within the characters to the depth of readers heart!" The Graphomania Awards "I am beyond impressed with this work. The characters feel real; three-dimensional. The narration does not feel forced in any way, it flows as it reads." The Dream Awards "Some books lead with suspense and cliffhangers that even if you don't want to continue the book you do so just to sate your curiosity. But then a rare gem like this comes along and without any cheap tricks it pulls in, you just continue and keep reading it and you may not even know when you reach the end."

Only a useless degree, unmedicated anxiety disorder, and a penchant for burnout.

Life in NYC is more complicated than a small town girl could have imagined. And it would seem the universe still has a few tricks up its sleeve. Ellie finds herself torn between two worlds.

𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐀𝚰𝐍
𝐁𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐌 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐒 #𝟏 ─────── 𝐕𝚰𝐕𝚰𝐄𝐍𝐍𝐄 𝐉𝐔𝐒𝐓𝚰𝐍𝐄 is described as perfection incarnate: poised, dutiful, and untouchable. For her twenty years among the earth, she has spent it all behind silk curtains and walls of stone, slowly built to enter a marriage that has been arranged since she was younger than five years old. Beneath her pristine exterior, was to be found someone who wanted to be more than a priceless jewel - and more so a desire, a curiosity. 𝐄𝐕𝐑𝐄𝐍 𝐎𝐁𝐒𝚰𝐃𝚰𝐀𝐍 wasn't meant to love someone else - his life was built to control, to command, and to stand beside her by expectation. However, the moment his piercing stare met with his bride, the rules that he so carefully built for himself crumbled within seconds. Possession was no longer a word that was whispered between business and family - it was intensified, personal, unavoidable. Every single interaction between 𝐕𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐍𝐄 and 𝐄𝐕𝐑𝐄𝐍 was a game, a challenge. Every conversation between them was a dance between resistance and desire. 𝐄𝐕𝐑𝐄𝐍 wants her not only by his side, but intertwined in his mind, his soul, and his world. Every small, careless act around her was a whispered promise. Between the depths of desire and duty, an irresistible love begins to bloom - a love that possesses, devours, and consumes; leaving nothing but their souls in its wake. #1 - emotionalslowburn | 03.07.2026 #2 - emotionaltension | 02.02.2026 #2 - polaropposites | 04.18.2026 #5 - 19thcentury | 03.31.2026 #5 - angstyromance | 05.26.2026 started :: 01.25.2026 ended :: 06.19.2026Cerita Lengkap
Leave a Trace
"What do you say," his voice begins in my ear. I feel his breath tickle my skin. I shiver. "That you and I slip out of here, hmm? We can go to the supply closet down the hall. I'm sure I can get the key." An audible gasp escapes my lips and I spin around to face him. He's close. He's so close. His blue-green eyes peer into mine, dark with an emotion that I'm not sure I've seen in a man before. I'm pressed against my desk and he's right in front of me. I can feel his minty breath fanning my lips. "Or," he starts, moving closer to me. "You could let me take you on a date." Say something, Belle! "There's not a chance in hell that I'll go out with you." I hiss. "Back away from me before I file harassment charges." I put my hands on his strong chest to push him, but he reaches out and grabs me around the ribs, his thumbs nestled under my breasts. He pulls me flush against his chest, his muscular chest pressed against mine. "Are you sure you don't want to go out with me, Rosie?" He murmurs. I feel my skin boiling in pleasure at his touch and I close my eyes, letting out a strangled breath. He smells so good. And then the bell rings, and my eyes fly open. His signature smirk is on his lips as he backs up. "Think about it, baby girl." He winks at me and saunters out of my classroom. What the hell? _____ Rosabelle Caldwell is the strictest teacher in West Valley High School. She's known for sending kids out with referrals, giving the hardest tests, and not letting people think of touching their cell phones.

She is a star and I would become an astronomer for her and I would study for the rest of my life and I would bleed, sweat and cry day and night just so I can understand her beauty.

I ask, swinging my feel a little. He shakes his head shyly, his mouth not moving at all. Geez! Why do I want to hear this dude talk so much? "Okay, that's fine. I can give you a nickname." I offer happily. He looks up from his book, raising his eyebrows. I just stare for a moment. He has nice eyes. Pretty brown chocolate orbs. They remind me so much of....... "Teddy." He shakes his head immediately, frowning. "What, why not? You remind me of my old teddy bear. He was a good listener and he didn't talk much..... just like you." I say softly, tilting my head. He continues to shake his head. I fold my arms, leaning back in my seat. "Yeah, it's definitely sticking. Teddy.....It has a nice ring to it, yeah?" He sighs, the first sound I have ever heard him make. "No." . . . *Jordan* Teddy!? Seriously!? She gave me a fucking NICKNAME!? What the hell does this girl want!?

Don't get close to people or they'll end up getting hurt. That's my mindset. I've been through enough of that. This girl doesn't belong in my world anyway.

He tucked my hair behind my ear. I wasn't the drunk one here, but the way he gazed at me with his deep eyes was enough to make me. I blinked my eyes at him and shook my head, trying to clear the fog in it. The fact that I was laying over him, with our chest pressed together and his hand on my waist wasn't helping either. "I-I... I don't think that's a good idea," I whispered, finally getting my voice back. "Why?" He looked at me intensely. "Is it because of your boyfriend?" "No." "Then what's the problem?" His thumb lightly creased my back from where my top had gotten up, making me quiver. "Why can't you stay?" "I..." "Don't you trust me, Lexi?" "Of course I do, I just..." I moved a little to get off him, but in a swift motion, he flipped us on the bed with him on the top this time. Gasping in surprise, my eyes grew big and I put my hands on his strong biceps. He put his forearm on either side of my face, leaning on them. I rubbed my thighs together which were between his legs. I was trapped between him and the bed. My breath hitched as he leaned in until our noses touched. "You just what?" My entire body heated as I felt his muscular chest pressed against mine. I bit my lip and tried to control my stupid hormones, but it made it worse when Noah's gaze went to my lips. I saw his Adam's apple bob as he continued to stare at my lips.
