“ Aaah.“ Steamed left his mouth as breathed he out. He kept letting out deep breaths over and over again for a long period of time. During this entire time, he hands didn't touch Estelle at all. He couldn't. If he did, he wasn't sure he would be able to control himself anymore. Time went by. It was slow and agonizing for Adrian as a certain part of throbbed in arousal. He hadn't f*cked a woman for a long time. But even so. He wasn't easily triggered like this. Adrian felt Estelle move again. He shifted uncomfortably. He was afraid of the next thing she would do. Then, it happened. Her hands, slow, dangerous and deliberate wrapped around his waist like a serpent. Adrian stilled before letting

Trigger Warning Hello Lovely Readers, This book may contain content that might be triggering for some. It is a dark romance with degradation, BDSM that doesn’t contain consent within the dynamic (I know, not something I typically have in my book). There are many instances where consent is very dubious and there is kidnapping. Because what fun is writing dark romance without hitting those tropes? I will add to anyone worried, this one does have a HEA because I’m a sucker for that happily ever after and I couldn’t imagine not giving Cass her happy ending.

Iris's POV I swallowed, my throat felt raw. The taste of him was still on my tongue, whiskey and something darker, something alpha. My own scent was everywhere, too: sweet, the unmistakable musk of an omega in heat. I was lying against his chest on the study sofa. Rafael's hair was a mess, his lips slightly swollen from kissing me, from biting me. The heat had eased, the sharpest edge of it, anyway, the unbearable burning that had driven me down those stairs

The one who could burn him alive and kiss the wound better. You stuck through the silence, the pain, the almosts, and the push-pulls. And when I was on the edge of giving up, you were the reason I didn’t. So here I am. Still writing. Still pushing. Still pouring my soul into every word because you deserve that. Dark romance isn’t everyone’s thing. But if it’s yours, then you get it. You get how love can be painful and beautiful. How obsession can look like devotion. How the line between “I need you” and “I might destroy you” can be so, so thin.

Slow and soft and entirely unhurried, the kind of kiss that had nothing to prove and everything to give. When it ended, I settled back against his chest without a word. His arms tightened around me, and I closed my eyes, finding the steady beat of his heart under my ear and letting it do what it had been doing all night. Neither of us said anything else. We simply held each other in the quiet dark of the apartment and let sleep come gently, finally safe inside the truth of what we both felt. The sound hit before I was fully awake. A crash so loud and so violent that I was sitting upright before my eyes had even properly opened, my heart already slamming against my ribs with the particular ur

I don’t even have the time to think about it because sleep has found a match in the gentle rhythm of my breathing. “Next time you tease me like that again, you won’t be able to walk for days.” I smile through the aftershocks and the lull of sleep. “Promises.” And darkness pulls me under. DAMIAN She’s curled into me, soft and warm, and her breathing slow but uneven. The rain has eased into a quiet drizzle now, tapping the windows like a lullaby. The storm may have passed, but the one I unleashed inside her…fuck.

Last night was wonderful. I finally slept with Soul and oh wow! He wasn't as good as Dean or Holden but it was still intense and he was so soft and romantic. Rose petals all over the bed, candles everywhere and fizzy grape juice--a pregnant craving--with chocolate covered strawberries! It's as though he read my mind, followed my heart and was making up for all the shit I'd been through over the past few months. In the middle of the night, I'd also woken up to fluttery kicks in my stomach!

Something about him made me uneasy, like I’d seen him before but couldn’t remember when or where. The way he moved—it felt too familiar. I forced myself to approach, clearing my throat. "Can I help you find something?" He turned slowly, and for the first time, I saw his face clearly. His eyes were dark, intense, piercing through me in a way that made my breath catch. There was a stillness about him, like a predator waiting for the right moment. He was handsome, but in a dangerous, unsettling way. “No,” he said, his voice low and smooth, sending a shiver down my spine. “Just browsing.”

Rion suggests. That earns a laugh from her, but the sound is low and humorless. She tilts her head, and shadows leak from her skin, curling like smoke before retreating back inside. "I’m afraid the Alpha and I aren’t exactly… compatible. My magic is darkness—chaos and decay. Your Alpha here," she jerks her chin toward me, "is pure light. He would absorb my power the same way he absorbed Eris’ chaos and trapped Khaíros."
