Whatthesmut3
Some men wear crowns. Others wear masks.
Lady Selene Abbadon has spent her entire life as a pawn in a game she never agreed to play. Promised to a future she dreads and bound by the expectations of a noble family, she has only one chance to flee before her freedom is stolen forever.
Then, on the night of the Beaumont Ball, a stranger appears.
Hidden behind the mask of a raven, Lord Taeha Boem is as alluring as he is dangerous-a man whispered about in legends, feared by kings, and followed by shadows. One dance. One stolen touch. One lingering look. That is all it takes to unravel everything Selene thought she wanted.
The moment she disappears into the night, Taeha follows.
What begins as a desperate escape soon becomes a haunting game of pursuit through moonlit forests, forgotten castles, and secrets buried beneath centuries of blood and betrayal. As ancient powers stir and enemies close in, Selene discovers that the greatest danger may not be the monsters lurking in the dark...
...but the man who looks at her as though she was written into his destiny long before they ever met.
Because some obsessions are not born.
They are remembered.
And some love stories do not ask for permission.
They simply consume.
