Fighting her instincts to protect her freedom
Unlike most werewolves Ariel isn't looking forward to meeting her mate. To her, mating would mean giving up her most important possession: her freedom, and she's not about to let that happen. Instead, she wants to spend her life travelling, having adventures and never having to answer to anyone. However, since nobody can outrun fate forever, she does meet her mate and then her heart is torn. Her free spirit and her instincts collide, and while she tries to find the right answer, she travels, meets new friends, paints passionately... and find herself in the middle of a war between packs. The enemy hides its name while it leads a veiled war against her pack. As the war intensifies, Ariel's courage will be tested.Zakończone
Business And Hopelessness
"Your hair is full of snow," He chuckled as he looked at her, reaching out to push a strand of hair behind her ear. Some snow successfully fell off her, but he didn't withdraw his hand. He cupped her cheek, wiping away a few snowflakes from it. She was frozen, staring at him like a deer caught in headlights, her heart pounding in her chest. Then, raising his other hand, he cupped her cheeks fully. His eyes began to trace every inch of her face; her eyes, her cheeks, her nose, before his gaze dropped to her lips. Her heart skipped a beat as she tried to keep herself together. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Seventeen-year-old Valentina Barron doesn't have the most ideal home life. Her family has financial problems, her mother is hospitalized, they had to move to a small apartment from their decent-sized family home... You get the point. She thinks life is unfair and horrible. Due to certain conditions, Valentina gets a scholarship at the most prestigious school in her hometown, but it doesn't make things easier, maybe even the opposite. She has to keep her grades high to satisfy her parents while attempting to scrape some money for breakfast since all of it goes to pay rent and hospital bills. Then one day, she has enough and tries to steal from the school's wealthiest girl, Odette Wraith, to make life simpler. It obviously doesn't go according to her plans, and she ends up tangled in some shady answer sheet-selling business at the school, where she meets the bane of her existence, who shows her that life isn't all about sadness; Luca Lennox.Zakończone

Heirs And Hunters
"Every step you take away from me only drives you closer to the brink of my madness. You belong to me, Winter. Any alternative reality or illusion you hope for- I will destroy them until your very existence is entwined with mine." -𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐞 Eighteen-year-old Winter has always been a quiet shadow, a shy spy avoiding the perils of the spotlight. But when she's tasked with stalking five powerful Heirs, her carefully crafted invisibility shatters. Her mission is clear: erase their scandals, track their every move, and never draw attention. Yet, when she crosses paths with Ivan Arcane-the ruthless heir to one of the world's most powerful empires-everything changes. At first, Ivan saw her as dull and dependent, an insignificant watcher in the crowd. A beautiful doll to be kept locked and safe somewhere- an innocence belonging nowhere near him or his world. But when she makes one fatal mistake, he uncovers the sharp, wild mind she's concealed beneath fragile masks of pink and purples. Now, Ivan is obsessed, determined to dismantle her defenses and claim her as his own. And In a world where power rules, Winter is no longer the Hunter in the game -she's Ivan's fixation, a prey to a predator and he'll stop at nothing to change the very narrative of the fairy tale so the villain gets the girl in the end.

The Chase (Enhypen X Hearts2Hearts au)
They were raised as weapons - seven boys and eight girls forged in the same underground hell, trained to be shadows, tools, killers. When the system burned, they split: ENHYPEN chose the law. Hearts2Hearts chose the underworld. Now, years later, they're on opposite sides of the same war - cops and criminals, brothers and sisters, ghosts chasing each other through bloodstained streets. But this isn't about justice. It's about power. Revenge. And the scars they left on each other. Because in this city, nothing runs deeper than family - except the wounds they gave each other.

Back For You ✔︎
❝ Maybe I was meant to come back for you. ❞ We're all used to hearing the typical stories of two people falling in love - they get through life together and wind up with a happy ending. There are endless books, movies, and even real life stories about those love stories. But what about the ones that don't last? What about the stories about two people finding each other and falling head over heels, but they weren't meant to be? Because not everyone who falls in love end up together. Reality isn't always so good, and fair, to everyone. Not every ending is a clichè fairytale ending. Not everyone is that lucky. Ariel Winter and Aiden Maddon are one of the unlucky ones. • • • 「 A UNIVERSITY ROMANCE 」 「 COMPLETE 」 DISCLAIMER: This is the first book I wrote after five years of not writing, so it's not my best work. I've grown and learned since then so this story has lots of flaws. If you are looking for better writing, check out my newer books!Zakończone

Her Royal Charming
"When are you going to realize people are never going to love you Adira?" The words were said with a sneer to add insult to injury. I say nothing and let my gaze drop to the floor. "Glad you know your place in the world." --------- "Happily Ever After's aren't a guarantee in life." -Adira Quinn ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Adira Quinn is no ordinary Cinderella archetype. If she was an accurate representation of Cinderella, not even Disney couldn't put a positive spin on this. A dead father, a mother who abandoned her, a wicked step-father and his three conniving daughters are all problems she has to encounter on a normal basis. Now enter Derrick Wilder, resident hearththorb and her problems increased tenfold.Zakończone
