Eternal Embers
Illustrator Isabelle Montrose arrives in Valmont’s rain-soaked quarter, sketchbook in hand but ideas elusive beneath the amber glow of Café de Minuit. One evening, architect Alexander Vale seeks shelter under the same streetlamp, crimson umbrella in hand. His measured gaze meets her restless creativity, and a silent bond forms as raindrops dance on cobblestones.
As Isabelle’s graphic-novel deadline approaches, self-doubt claws at her confidence; Alexander, torn between family expectations and his passion for design, struggles in silence. A misread glance threatens to sever their fragile connection, forcing both to confront fear and longing.
In lavender-tinted twilight and beneath flickering lanterns, Isabelle and Alexander choose vulnerability over solitude. Together, they discover that true art—and true love—arises when two hearts light each other’s darkest moments.

The Alpha Prince's Obsession
She dragged a bleeding stranger off the streets of East London when she was twelve years old. She cleaned his wounds, fed him cheap soup, and told him to stop acting like royalty before she threw him back outside. By morning, he was gone without a trace.
She forgot about him.
He never forgot about her.
Eirlys Whitmore grew up learning how to survive on scholarship money, secondhand coats, and stubbornness alone. Brilliant and emotionally guarded, she has spent her entire life keeping people at a careful distance. When she earns early acceptance into the prestigious Blackthorn Dominion University at sixteen, she believes it is purely the result of her own hard work.
She has no idea the Crown Alpha of the Virellion Dominion pulled every string to put her there.
Kaevrix Noctharis Virellion is not supposed to exist in her world. He is ancient, powerful, and feared across an entire supernatural dominion that hides itself beneath human society. He rejected five fated mates, abandoned royal duties, and spent years quietly watching over a human girl from London shadows she never noticed. To everyone else, he is untouchable. But something about her sharp mouth and complete indifference to danger broke through every wall he was raised to build.
When he enrolls beside her under a false identity as a calm, glasses-wearing student named Kae, she has no reason to suspect anything. He is simply the quiet, slightly unnerving boy who always sits too close.
She has no idea he has already decided she belongs to him.
And he has no idea she is the one person alive who will refuse to let him get away with it.

My Father’s Enemy, My Obsession
He is the man her father wants erased.
She is the only woman who can bring him to his knees.
In neon-soaked New York City, power isn’t inherited—it’s stolen.
Twenty-three-year-old Ava Moretti was born into one of Manhattan’s most feared real-estate dynasties, raised to preserve its empire—not question it. Invisible, controlled, untouchable… until she slips into an illegal underground auction hidden beneath a luxury skyscraper.
That’s where she meets him.
Damian Kade—ruthless tech billionaire, the “Silicon King,” and her family’s greatest enemy. A man who doesn’t lose, doesn’t beg, and doesn’t spare mercy.
When a violent deal spirals into chaos, Damian drags her into the shadows and kisses her—hard, commanding, forbidden—just to keep her alive.
He doesn’t know she’s a Moretti.
She doesn’t know he’s the man her father has spent a decade trying to destroy.
What begins as a secret client arrangement quickly turns into obsession. In public, they are enemies whose names should never be spoken in the same room. In private, they are ruin—ripped silk, bruised lips, and truths neither of them were ever meant to survive.
“I should walk away from you,” Damian whispers against her skin.
“But I don’t believe in should.”
But love in their world is never safe.
When an attack on Ava’s family is traced back to Kade Industries, she’s forced into an impossible choice: expose the man she loves… or protect him and risk watching her entire bloodline burn.
He is the empire her father wants destroyed.
She is the key to his downfall.
In a city built on betrayal and blood, love is the most dangerous crime of all.
How far will you go for the one person you were never meant to survive?

THE ALPHA WORE A CROWN AND SECRETS
A princess vanishes. A kingdom can't afford the truth. And the only person who can take her place is the brother who was never supposed to exist in the shadows she left behind.
Prince Caelan Vayne is an Alpha with a secret that could shatter him — his strength is suppressed, his designation hidden, his entire identity a carefully maintained performance. When his sister disappears days before her royal wedding, his father makes the impossible ask: put on her dress, cross the border south, and become her. Just long enough to save the alliance. Just long enough to find her.
He doesn't expect Crown Prince Damien Solaris.
Cold. Commanding. The kind of man who fills a room without trying. Damien is everything a southern crown prince is supposed to be — except for one thing. Beneath the iron composure and the perfect Alpha facade, he's hiding a designation that would cost him his crown, his empire, and everything he's spent his life building.
Two people. Two impossible secrets. One contract marriage that was supposed to keep them at arm's length.
It doesn't.
Because living under the same roof does something to carefully constructed walls. Shared suppressants become shared trust. Midnight investigations become something neither of them can name. And the cold, professional distance of a contract slowly, devastatingly becomes the one place either of them has ever felt safe.
But someone arranged the princess's disappearance. Someone inside these very palace walls wants this alliance — and everything it protects — reduced to ash.
They'll have to find the truth before it finds them first.
The Alpha Wore a Crown and Secrets is a slow-burn ABO royalty romance about two people who agreed to a temporary arrangement — and discovered that the heart doesn't honor expiration dates.

MR BODYGUARD, DON'T LOVE ME!
Verssa Yanng, at a youthful nineteen years of age, boasts an undeniable allure, his striking visage, height six feet in stature, lean yet sturdy. His attractiveness is undeniable; he possesses a universally pleasing look that captivates from every angle. By the tender age of eighteen, Vers had already ascended to the summit of the fashion world as a coveted Top Super Model, dominating the runways of fashion weeks across nearly all continents.
At nineteen, his cameo appearance in a movie unexpectedly seized the spotlight, with the supporting role eclipsing even the film's protagonist. Yet, the rosy facade of fame conceals its thorns. Beneath the dazzle lay the shadows of terror: malevolent letters, corrosive threats, and the persistent nocturnal intrusion of rabid fans knocking on his apartment door. Vers recalls having relocated over five times due to the relentless leakage of his whereabouts to his fanatic followers.
One night, after a midnight shoot, Vers almost get kidnaped by a group that blocked his car and forcibly pulled him out. An escape landed him in a hospital bed, where he awoke to the presence of a mysterious figure in black. Gale Anderson, a former war veteran turned professional bodyguard, now stands as a sentinel for Vers. A very quiet and mysterious man, handsome yet frigid. His countenance rarely betrays emotion, six feet and five inches tall. His broad hands lifted Vers's slight frame with ease that rendered him akin to a mere child in his grasp.
His aura is shrouded in enigma, withholding the identity of his employer, yet his mission remains unwavering: to keep Vers safe by any means necessary. For Vers, unfortunately, it's like a living nightmare; his freedom was robbed as his watchful bodyguard trailed him incessantly, even to the restroom.

THE SHADOW WITHIN HER (The shadow Queen Of Aetheria)
The moment our magic touched, something shifted.
My shadows didn’t fight his light this time. They reached for it instead, curling around the gold like they belonged there.
“Lyra,” Kaelen said quietly, closer than I expected, “don’t force it.”
“I’m not,” I whispered.
That was the problem.
I wasn’t controlling it at all.
The connection deepened—raw, seamless, alive—threading through me like it had always been there. No resistance, balance.
Just power.
His gaze locked on mine, sharp with something I couldn’t ignore.
“You feel that too,” I said.
“Yes.”
The answer came instantly.
And it unsettled me.
Because if he felt it too… then this wasn’t just my power.
It was something else.
Something neither of us understood.
And for the first time since my magic awakened—I wasn’t sure if it made me stronger… or more dangerous.
----
Lyra Vale never asked for power.
But when the crystal chose her, something ancient awakened—shadow magic thought to be dead for centuries.
Feared. Forbidden. Alive inside her.
Sent to the Royal Magic Academy under strict control, Lyra is told to suppress it. To become safe.
But her magic refuses to be controlled.
It grows.
Prince Kaelen is the only one strong enough to counter it—his light magic the perfect balance to her shadows. He was meant to contain her.
Instead, he becomes the only thing keeping her grounded.
But something is wrong inside the Academy.
Students are losing control. Hidden forces are moving beneath the surface. And someone is always watching Lyra.
The truth is worse than rebellion or dark magic.
Lyra was never meant to control the shadows.
She was meant to awaken them.
And when the truth comes out, she won’t just choose between light and darkness—
She’ll decide who she becomes.

The Rebel's Obsession: Redemption
“I'd do it,” a voice interrupted. “I'd kiss her.”
Laughter cut short like a needle across a vinyl. Heads turned. Eyes widened. There he was— leaning against the auditorium doorway, dressed in all leather black, clutching a helmet, exuding that dangerous calm was—

STOLEN BY THE DON
He was a man made of sins.
She was the one mistake he couldn’t undo.
Luca Romano — the ruthless Don of the Romano crime family — has lived in the shadows for years, drowning in blood, money, and women. But beneath the armor of power lies a ghost he can’t escape: Serena, the girl who once saved his broken soul before vanishing without a trace.
Decades later, when Luca sees her again in a supermarket — the same eyes, the same delicate face — he loses control. Within hours, she’s in his mansion, locked away, his lost angel finally returned to him.
But she isn’t Serena.
She’s Sienna, Serena’s twin sister — the one thrown away, forgotten, and left to survive the streets.
Unlike her gentle twin, Sienna bites back. She curses him, fights him, and makes him question the monster he’s become.
“You think you own me, Don?” she spits.
“No, dolcezza,” he murmurs, pressing his thumb against her jaw. “I think I finally found the one woman who could destroy me.”
What begins as a twisted act of obsession turns into a war between them — a battle of wills, lust, and long-buried secrets. Because the more Luca learns about the woman he’s captured, the more he realizes:
He might have stolen the wrong twin, but he’s finally met his match.
And when the real Serena returns — sweet, innocent, and hiding a darkness he never imagined — Luca will discover the cruelest truth of all:
The angel he adored was a lie… and the devil he stole might be the only one who can save him.
“I thought you were my redemption,” he says.
“No,” she whispers. “I’m your reckoning.”

Frequently Asked Questions
I went into 'Beneath the Shadows' expecting a standard missing-person thriller, but it subverted that almost immediately. The narrative splits between the desperate search and these weirdly tranquil flashbacks to the couple's past, which somehow made the present feel even more claustrophobic. It's less about action and more about psychological erosion—the way doubt and grief warp every memory.
What stuck with me was the ending. Without spoiling, it’s divisive. I’ve seen some readers hate it for being ambiguous, but I think that ambiguity is the point. It refuses a clean resolution, which leaves you unsettled in a way a neat twist wouldn’t. If you need every thread tied up, maybe skip it, but if you like a thriller that lingers in your head for days, chewing over the possibilities, it’s absolutely worth your time.
