Where The Moon Never Sleeps
Luna and Sera are cousins. Very close indeed. Sera inherits a manor. Lone and isolated. Deep in the woods. As they reach, Sera is charmed subtly by someone lingering there. But should she really trust what's beyond her comprehension? Is it a quick thrill or something she can't escape.
OBSESSION'S DESIGN
One look was all it took. Luna never noticed the man watching her from the shadows of that hospital corridor-but he saw everything. The way she smiled at the nurse, the fear in her eyes when she entered the exam room, the soft kindness in her voice. In that moment, he decided: she would be his. But Luna's world crumbled when the results came back. A rare, life-threatening condition. One chance of survival-a bone marrow transplant from a donor who refused to help. Desperate, Luna searched for answers, unaware that every road led back to him. The illness. The rejection. Even the donor file "accidentally" left behind. All of it was his design. Because he didn't want to save her. He wanted to own her. As Luna fights to survive, she discovers the truth: she isn't dying. She was never sick. And the only thing growing inside her... are his children. She thought she needed a cure. What she really needs-is to escape. ---Complete
