anti-hero dark fantasy forgiveness love pain redemption romance war

They say there is a thin line between love and hate.

Born into a world of brutality and injustice, Elena Starks knows better than to believe it. Her country of Nyrma is engulfed in a civil war fought between two very different nations-Nyrmans and Sariyans. Superiors and subordinates.

As a Sariyan, Elena has never experienced true freedom, and she dreams of a brighter future. But a swift attack of the merciless enemy results in a devastating tragedy. Hopeless and traumatized, Elena is captured and taken to a grim place called Obsidian where she catches the eye of the enigmatic Commander Damien Crane.

The dangerous Nyrman could hurt her in unspeakable ways, but-to Elena's great surprise-he doesn't. For some mysterious reason, he shows her mercy and treats her with unexpected kindness while all the other prisoners suffer under his command.

Elena knows she can't trust this merciless tyrant, but his persistent gentle conduct doesn't leave her indifferent. As Damien slowly works his way in, Elena lets down her guard and begins questioning everything she knows. They are a captor and captive, power and helplessness...ying and yang. So different, and yet the same. Can love grow in the midst of hell?

To practice sword fighting for fun, and to be with the one she loved, Theo. But of course, that was something that could never happen. Theo was just a guard, someone her father would never allow her to marry. Adira thought that being forbidden to marry Theo would be the worst thing to happen to her. But oh, how wrong she was. In the blink of an eye, her world is turned upside down. She is kidnapped by an embittered mercenary with a thirst for revenge and his peculiar sidekick, taken away from her home and used as leverage for the man's wishes. All is dark and she sees no hope. But she is not alone. [ Highest Rank #619 in Fantasy ]

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One by RKSHobbs

Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.

Painfully yours by TheBigBreakfastClub

"But l'm already hurt." I breathed down his neck. My cheeks touching his. He sighed down my neck as I continued feeling his soft skin with my face. My eyes closed, feeling his hands grip my frame. My lips trembled with fear and tears streamed down my cheeks "When it comes to fighting me, you never give up, you find more strength than you think you have. And I really .... He kisses down my neck and lightly bites my earlobe ......really enjoy breaking down your little attempts for salvation. And I'm going to break every single thing inside of you until I please. I'm not done robbing you of your innocence. You're mine." As he slowly spoke into my ear, blood rushed from the top to the bottom of my body. My heart ached and my chest ached.
