His Terms, My Surrender: Unfinished Surrender
Girl PowerDark RomanceMafiaSecond ChanceWeak to StrongForgiveness
Five years ago, Sofia walked away, vowing never to look back. She built a life of her own—one filled with freedom, color, and the one person who truly matters: her daughter, Martha. A little girl who only knows her father through a screen. FaceTime calls filled with awkward silences, a man who feels more like a shadow than a parent.
But now, Theo Rodriguez is here. In the flesh.
For the first time, Martha will see her father face-to-face.
For the first time, Sofia will have to confront the man who once owned her body and nearly broke her soul.
Theo says he’s here for their daughter, but Sofia knows better. He has always played by his own rules—dangerous, possessive, and unwilling to let go.
She thought she had escaped his grasp.
She thought the past was behind her.
But when an ominous message arrives—You think this story is over?—Sofia realizes some devils never truly let go.
And Theo Rodriguez might be the only man who can keep her and Martha safe.
But at what cost?
Will she surrender to him again… or finally break free?

Chapter: Chapter Fifty TwoIt didn’t take long.Barely a few minutes passed before the sound of fast footsteps echoed through the back lot. Heavy, furious, wild. Camilla stood up quickly, her eyes flicking toward the corner.Theo appeared.His chest was rising and falling fast, like he had sprinted the entire way. His hair was a mess, his face pale, his eyes wide with something between rage and pure terror.The moment he saw me—His expression cracked.Not into sadness.Not into fear.But something darker.“Sofia!” he shouted, storming toward me.I barely had time to stand—Camilla’s hands were still on my back—before Theo reached us.He didn't slow down, didn't hesitate. The raw, violent shock of seeing his face contorted by something so cold hit me before his hand did.He grabbed my throat with a speed and ferocity that stole my breath instantly. His fingers dug deep into the sides of my neck, cutting off my air and pinning me against the cold brick wall behind me.“How could you, Sofia? How could you!”The wo

Chapter: Chapter Fifty OneArzhel’s eyebrows pulled together the moment he saw my face. Camilla stepped closer, her eyes scanning me like she was trying to understand why I looked like I had been ripped open.“Sofia… what happened?” Camilla asked, her voice soft but urgent. “Why are you on the ground? Where’s Martha? Where—”I couldn’t speak.My throat felt tight, my chest crushed. I lifted a shaking hand, pointing in the direction the car had disappeared. My finger barely stayed steady. My whole body felt weak, like my bones couldn’t hold me up anymore.Arzhel turned his head sharply, following where I pointed. “What is it? Sofia—talk to us. What happened?”I opened my mouth, but the words broke apart before they came out.“Mar…” My breath trembled. “Mar—tha…”Camilla’s eyes widened immediately, her hand flying to her mouth. “Where is she? Sofia—where is Martha?”“She—she—” My breath hitched, my voice barely a whisper. “They… took her.”Everything inside me spun. My vision blurred. The world tilted.Camilla gr

Chapter: Chapter FiftyI held Martha’s small hand tightly, my fingers curled around hers as if letting go for even a second would shatter everything. She was talking softly to her bear, swinging our connected hands back and forth, completely unaware of the storm brewing inside me. I kept my face calm, my smile gentle, my voice steady—every expression carefully measured, every word chosen like it mattered more than breathing.Theo thought I was scared.He thought I was following.He thought he was in control.But he didn’t know the truth. He didn’t know how long I’d been planning this. How many nights I sat awake, staring at the ceiling with panic twisting in my chest, realizing that the only way to protect my daughter was to disappear. Not temporarily. Not halfway.Completely.And the only way to disappear… was to make Theo believe I was choosing him first.We slipped out of the line slowly, almost casually, right as Theo’s phone rang. He turned his back to answer it without thinking, without suspicion, ass

Chapter: Chapter forty nineThe day finally arrived.Two weeks had passed since the chaos, two weeks of planning, waiting, and keeping everything tight. Every detail had been checked and double-checked. My private jet was ready on the tarmac, engines humming quietly in the cool morning air, a symbol of escape and safety.Martha bounced beside me, small hand gripping mine tightly. Her excitement made me smile despite the knot in my chest. She had no idea how heavy this move was for me—or for Sofia.“Daddy,” she said, eyes wide, “Mommy is coming too?”I glanced at Sofia, who was standing near the luggage, her face carefully neutral. I could see the tension in her jaw, the way she shifted from foot to foot. This wasn’t just a trip for fun. Every step, every move, was for her safety—and for Martha’s.“Yes,” I said gently, squeezing Martha’s hand. “Mommy is joining us.”Martha’s face lit up. “Yay! I can’t wait!” She giggled, spinning a little before planting herself back by my side.Sofia’s expression softened for a

Chapter: Chapter forty eightSofia guided Camilla deeper into the living room, their voices dropping to low whispers the moment the door shut behind them. I watched them for a second—just long enough to make sure Camilla wasn’t about to lunge back at me again.But I didn’t follow.I didn’t care enough to listen.Their voices were muffled anyway—soft, shaky, full of whatever excuses, panic, or nonsense they wanted to spill out. Camilla’s trembling tone. Sofia’s calming one. Two people trying to clean up the mess they created.I had better things to do.I had bigger problems than whatever they were whispering about behind a closed door.I glanced back toward the hallway. Martha’s door was cracked open, her small face peeking out, eyes wide and worried.I lifted a hand, motioning gently.“It’s okay, Marth,” I said softly. “Stay inside. I’m coming.”She nodded and slipped back into her room.Good.The last thing she needed was more chaos.I turned away from the living room—away from the fading murmurs of Sofia and Ca

Chapter: Chapter forty sevenI walked down the hall, each step heavier than the last.All that anger… all that noise… and underneath it, the only thing that mattered was the small, quiet sob coming from Martha’s room.I stopped at her door.For a second, I just stood there, hand on the frame, letting the guilt settle thick in my chest. Then I pushed the door open slowly.She was on the bed, knees pulled to her chest, face buried in her hands. Her shoulders shook with every quiet cry.“Marth,” I said softly.She flinched at my voice.That hurt more than anything Sofia had said.I stepped inside, careful, slow, like approaching something fragile.“Hey,” I murmured, kneeling beside the bed. “Look at me.”She didn’t.So I tried again, gentler.“Martha… I’m sorry.”Her crying slowed—just a little—but she still didn’t lift her head.I let out a breath, rubbing a hand over my face.“I shouldn’t have shouted at you,” I said, voice low, honest. “You didn’t deserve that. None of this is your fault.”She sniffled.I reached

Chapter: Chapter one hundred and forty sixTheo’s POVEvening came too soon.Sofia was already ready, baby Martha bundled up in her arms. The sight of them by the door, prepared to leave, made something in my chest tighten. I wasn’t the type to dwell on emotions, but this—this was different.I couldn’t believe this was happening. I couldn’t believe I wouldn’t get to watch my daughter grow.I might miss her first babbling, the first time she sits up, the moment she learns to crawl, her first steps—every milestone, every little thing that parents are supposed to witness. I might miss all of it.And the worst part? I had no one to blame but myself.Sofia adjusted Martha’s blanket, making sure she was warm. She hadn’t said much since we got back from the hospital. She barely looked at me unless necessary, keeping her focus on Martha. I understood why. I hadn’t given her much reason to believe in me—to believe in us.But now, with them standing at the door, ready to leave, I felt something close to desperation clawing at my chest.

Chapter: Chapter one hundred and forty fiveThe next morning, I woke up feeling like a stranger in my own life. The weight in my chest hadn’t lifted. It was still there, heavy and suffocating, but I had to keep moving. I couldn't afford to stop.I dragged myself out of bed, my body aching as I made my way to the bathroom. The shower water hit my skin like a cold reminder of everything I was leaving behind. I let it run over me, trying to wash away the exhaustion, the pain, the fear. It didn't help.Once I was done, I dressed quickly. A simple outfit, nothing too fancy. I didn’t have the energy for anything else.The hospital. I had to get Martha. She was strong now. No longer in the NICU. She was ready to leave.I picked up my phone and called a cab. I couldn’t drive, not with the way my hands were shaking. The thought of Theo following me made my stomach tighten, but there was nothing I could do. He was a part of this now.I heard a knock on the door just as I was finishing up. I opened it to see him standing there.He didn’t

A life away from the blood, the lies, and the war that had shaped every part of me.It was what I wanted.Wasn’t it?I looked down at my hands, my fingers still curled into fists. I forced them to relax.I should have been relieved. The contract was over. The chains that had bound me to him were gone. I could walk away, take Martha, and never look back.But instead of relief, all I felt was… empty.I lifted my eyes to him. His expression was blank, but I knew him well enough to see what he wasn’t saying.He meant it this time. He was letting me go.No more fights. No more power plays. No more waiting for him to change the rules.I swallowed, my throat tight.This was it. The moment I had fought for, the moment I had dreamed of.So why did it feel like my chest was caving in?I forced myself to speak. “You really set everything up.”His nod was almost imperceptible. “You and Martha will have everything you need.”I hesitated. “And you?”He exhaled

Chapter: Chapter one hundred and forty threeThree Days LaterThe air was thick with grief. The cemetery was silent except for the occasional rustle of wind through the trees, the distant sound of birds chirping—too peaceful for a day like this.Two graves.Two names carved into stone.Martha Rodriguez.Javier Vargas.One was my mother. The other was the man I had killed.Sofia stood beside me, dressed in black, her face unreadable. She hadn’t spoken much since I told her we would be burying them together, giving her father the funeral he had been denied. I wasn’t sure how she felt about it.Maybe she didn’t know either.She had barely looked at me since that night in the NICU. Since I had finally let her go.I glanced down at the caskets. One was polished mahogany, sleek and expensive—exactly what my mother would have wanted. The other was simpler, darker, almost as if it carried the weight of the sins attached to it.Javier Vargas had died a traitor. A man I had buried in secrecy.Now, he was finally being laid to rest.Sofia

Chapter: Chapter one hundred and forty twoOne Week LaterMartha was still in the NICU. She was stronger than she had been, her tiny body fighting every single day, but she was still so fragile.Sofia never left her side.She sat in the recliner beside the incubator, eyes locked on our daughter. Her body was still recovering, her movements slow and careful, but she didn’t seem to care. The doctors and nurses had to remind her to rest, to eat, but she only did so reluctantly, as if every second away from Martha was a second wasted.And me?I stood just outside the room, watching.I had been inside, had held Martha once under Sofia’s insistent gaze, but I still couldn’t shake the fear that gripped me whenever I looked at her.She was so small. Too small.What if I wasn’t enough?What if I failed her, the same way I had failed Javier?The guilt sat heavy in my chest, an anchor I couldn’t shake.“Rodriguez.”I stiffened at the voice behind me and turned to see Dr. Reyes watching me with a knowing expression.

She still moved slowly, but there was determination in her every action.And today, she was ready.I had done everything to delay this moment. Avoided every conversation about when she could see the baby. But the doctor had given his approval this morning, and there was no stopping her now.Me?I hadn’t even gone to the NICU.I told myself it was because Sofia should see the baby first. That she should have that moment before anyone else.But deep down, I knew the truth.I couldn’t bring myself to face the child.Because what story could I tell them?That they were born from violence? That their existence was a cruel twist of fate? That the first breath they took in this world was surrounded by tragedy?I didn’t even know the baby’s gender.Sofia didn’t notice my hesitation.

Tempting The Graves Brothers
First-Person POVFamilial BondBullyPlayboyPossessiveForbidden LoveSecret LoveHate to Love
Two brothers. One house. A million ways for everything to go wrong.
Khione Kay wanted one thing: a quiet sleepover at her best friend’s house. She didn't expect the shadows of the Graves estate to be so suffocating—or for him to be waiting in them.
Noah Graves. Her best friend’s older brother. The boy who has been a thorn in her side since she was ten. He’s dangerous, arrogant, and famous for the rotating door of girls he brings home every night. Khione knows she should hate him—and for years, she succeeded. But hate and desire are two sides of the same coin, and one night of friction finally causes a spark.
In a cold bathroom, with blood on her temple and a secret burning between them, the line is crossed. A single mistake changes the game, and now Khione is drowning in guilt.
Just as the walls start closing in, Zion Graves—the kind, protective younger brother—steps in. He offers the safety Noah destroys, but his presence only makes the lie heavier. Caught between the brother who breaks her and the brother who wants to save her, Khione is playing a losing hand.
How long can she keep the secret before the Graves brothers tear her world apart?

Chapter: Chapter Thirty Eight“How old are you, then?” Zion asked, leaning forward with genuine curiosity.“I am twenty-one,” Peach replied, before adding a playful wink toward Noah.“Though I like to tease him because I am technically the older one. Just a teeny, tiny bit.”“Oh, so you are the same age as Noah,” Zion noted.“I am three months older, actually,” she giggled. “I an a January baby and he is a March baby. “Noah leaned closer to her ear, but his voice was loud enough for the whole table to hear. “Age doesn’t matter when we’re in bed baby,” he murmured, his tone unnecessarily dark and suggestive.I felt my stomach turn as I rolled my eyes so hard it actually hurt. The sheer arrogance in his voice made me want to scream, but I kept my eyes on my plate wishing I could disappear.“Khione is older than me ,too,” Zion added glancing at me with a sweet, proud smile of his. “But for us, it’s only a month. She’s a June baby—which is this month—and I am July.”Peach clapped her hands togther, her green eyes spa

Chapter: Chapter Thirty Seven“I am going to hop in the shower,” I murmured, still feeling the faint ache in my bones from yesterday. I stayed under the hot spray for a long as possible, trying to wash away the lingering fog of the tequila and the sharp, piercing guilt that felt like a permanent weight in my chest. When I stepped out, I grabbed one of Zion’s oversized t-shirt from his drawer, the fabric smelling comfortingly of him.Zion was dressed by the time I finished, and together we headed out of his room for breakfast. As we stepped into the hallway, a rich, savory aroma hit me instantly.“Hmmm, what smells so good?” I asked, my stomach letting an expectant growl. It’s probably Mrs. Graves cooking.We made our way downstairs, but as I rounded the corner into the kitchen, I froze. It wasn’t Mrs. Graves standing by the stove. It was the blonde girl had seen Noah with.Up close, I finally caught her full face. Her features strikingly similar to mine—the same jawline and high cheekbones—but she was arguably pre

Chapter: Chapter Thirty SixZion didn’t hesitate anymore. His hands moved with a rough, primal urgency as he stripped me bare, tossing my bra and panties to the floor without taking his eyes off me. He crawled between my thighs, spreading my legs wide and looking up at me with dark, predatory hunger.“This is going to hurt a little, love,” he rasped, his voice sounding like gravel. Then, he shoved himself in me.I let out a guttural moan as a sharp, tearing ripped through my center, making my head screech. I gripped the headboard, my back arching off the bed as the air left my lungs. Zion paused for a heartbeat, letting me take the weight of him as he sank all the way in. I lifted my head, panting, and saw a smear of blooding staining his dick. The reality hit me harder than the tequila—Zion was officially my first.As the initial sting began to melt into a heavy, throbbing heat, he started to move. His thrust grew faster and harder, and the pain quickly buried under the wave of friction that made me grasp. Fuc

I was just catching my breath when a sharp knock sounded on the door. I opened it and Xalia was standing there, her expression shifting from party mode, to genuine concern.“Khi, you okay?” She asked, stepping inside and closing the door behind her.“Yeah, I am,” I snapped, a little too quickly. “Why wouldn’t I be?”She didn’t buy it for a second. “You sure?”I let out a long sigh. “No, I am not,” I admitted, leaning against the sink. “Zion keeps talking about the Harvard dream—us going to Harvard together—when I am basically going to San Bernardino Valley College. It’s right here. Graduation is like what, a month? Then we move to college. What then?

Chapter: Chapter Thirty FourIt was Saturday—finally, a day away from school. I didn’t just sleep in; I practically hibernated, finally waking up around 12pm. My body felt heavy with a week worth of exhaustion, the kind that sleep alone couldn’t fix.I spent the afternoon in a slow blur. I showered, pulled my hair in a messy pony tail, and curled up to the couch to lose myself in some Netflix. Time had a way of moving fast when you ignoring it. Before I knew it, the sun was dipping low and Tovar’s party was approaching. He said it was just a “small crowd” the usual crowd, so I wasn’t expecting anything crazy. No need to dress so high and mighty.I kept it simple. I picked out a short floral gown that was light and airy, did a bit of natural makeup, and called it a day. It was cute, comfy, and most importantly—easy.A familiar honk sounded from the driveway. I grabbed my purse and headed out. There was Zion, leaning against his car effortless in a casual shirt and jeans. And of course, in his hand was yet another

But now, the double date was only two hours away. Mom was already at work for her usual shift, leaving the house quiet and empty.I sighed and looked at my phone. A text from Xalia popped up: “God, you don’t know how long I have been waiting for this! Look pretty tonight, okay? I want us to look so good that people trip over their own feet watching us.” She followed it up with something a bit nasty and suggestive about me and Zion, but I didn't reply. I wasn't in the mood for her jokes.I headed into the shower to wash away the stress of the week. Once I was out, I walked over to the chair where the shopping bags sat. I hadn’t removed them from there since yesterday.I pulled out the outfit Zion said his mom had picked for me.It was stunning. The look was a bold, deep red that felt sleek and edgy. It had a structured strapless corset top that hugged
