"You think I chose this?" he growled, voice low and rough against her ear. "I was sent to destroy you, Aurelia. But I marked you instead. You're mine now—and there's no undoing that." Aurelia's world shattered the day her mother and brother died. Moving to a new city was supposed to be a fresh start, but it only led her into the arms of a monster. Abaddon Black is cruel, untouchable, and devastatingly magnetic. Everyone fears him. No one dares cross him. And somehow, he's chosen her. What begins as blackmail becomes something darker, something that feels a lot like obsession. She hates him. She wants him. And when he finally saves her from a nightmare she never saw coming, she learns the truth: he was never just a boy. He’s a vampire—ancient, powerful, and bound to her by blood. She is his mate! Worse, her own father betrayed her to the very creatures who killed her family. Now, trapped between a dark love and a twisted legacy, Aurelia must face who she truly is and what it means to be Abaddon’s girl.

Della's dad was her best friend and her hero, until she decides to marry a man that does not meet his family standards in any way. With his marriage, career, and side hustle all being threatened at the same time, he makes a desperate attempt to "fix" the situation and he winds up opening a magical can of worms, that leads to secrets being revealed, and all kinds of magical mischief, and even a little naughty fun.

A girl navigates a world she doesn't understand with only her soulmate to guide her through the perils of a foreign land. She meets him while free falling to planet Earth and has to gain his favour in order to save the entire planet from a fate worse than death! She tries her best to do everything she is told but eventually realises she has to use her own skills in order to create a world that is better for everyone..................................................................... "Once upon a time there was a girl. A very special girl with abilities no human being should have..... Chapter 1 'Most people's jobs are easy. The worst that can happen if you fail is you get fired, right? But on my first day I was told that if I failed in my duties, even just once, the world would end. I probably should have asked more questions at the time, but I was distracted by a pretty face.' The ticking of the click made the room feel emptier than it was. The clunky ticks and tocks echoed around the circular hall, bouncing off sleek walls and plastic enclosures. Those plastic screens were nine inches thick but reflected like sleek polished glass. Whether that shield of plastic was designed to keep him inside or keep everyone else out had never been explained to Maika. "You just sit and watch him," she had been told. That was the sum of her responsibilities. The entire explanation. "Sit in the outer ring. Use your enhanced focus. Don't take your eyes away from him for a second." "Him... Eigen."

I ordered an incubus online, but when the package arrived, there were two of them. One was gentle and obedient, the other was hot-tempered and unpredictable. I immediately messaged customer service to ask if they'd sent the wrong one—I had only ordered the gentle kind. The reply came cheerfully. "Congratulations, you've unlocked the hidden variant! This model is a bit special—buy one, get one free!" Wait… what? I remembered hearing people say that raising an incubus is like raising a puppy, only better—they keep you warm at night and don't shed. Well, if that's true, whether I had one or two made no difference. So I ended up paying the price of one and getting two—what a steal! Or so I thought… until I went to feed them. That's when I realized I was the cookie in the middle of a sandwich. Apparently, "keeping me warm at night" was a strenuous activity.

Berbeda dari gadis kebanyakan, dia terbilang unik. Hidupnya tidak ada kata repot. Apa yang ingin dia lakukan, akan dilakukan. Apa yang tidak, tentu tidak akan dilakukan. Disaat teman seusianya sibuk mempercantik diri dengan berbagai brand dan merek skincare, dia tidak. Dia lebih memilih mengoleksi berbagai macam makanan dan cemilan untuk perut rampingnya. Iya, sekalipun ia memiliki porsi makan yang cukup banyak dan berbagai cemilan yang selalu dia stok, tubuhnya tidak gemuk, bahkan cenderung kurus. "Ehe... Makan aja banyak, badan kering kerontang!" begitulah ungkapan yang sering dia dengar dari teman-temannya. Tapi dia tidak pernah ambil pusing, dia justru bangga dan akan menjawab "Banyak yang mau jadi aku, makan banyak tapi badan tetap kurus". Bukan hanya banyak makan tapi tubuh kurus yang menjadi karakteristiknya, kulitnya yang gelap cenderung coklat juga sering menjadi bahan ledekan teman-temannya. "Minum susu putih, biar putihan dikit kau", "Suntik putih dulu kau, biar gak hitam". Saat pernyataan-pernyataan seperti itu dia dengar, dia hanya diam. Sesekali mungkin dia akan menanggapi dengan nada sedikit bercanda "Kalian buta ya, kulitku ini coklat muda. Hitam dari mana coba?" Meski dalam hati, tentu dia merasa tidak percaya diri. Standar kecantikan 'memiliki kulit putih' membuatnya merasa tidak cantik. Tapi sebenarnya dia manis, hm.. tidak-tidak, kata manis bukan penghibur untuk mereka yang memiliki kulit dengan tona gelap. Dia benar-benar manis, di mata orang yang tepat. Dan lagi, bukan dia tidak berusaha untuk memiliki kulit yang cerah, bahkan mencoba cara instan dia pun pernah.

In my tenth year of marriage, my old childhood friend, Joshua Sears, posts a photo on social media. Both Joshua and my wife, Sabrina Lawson, are hugging his son, Andy Sears, and my daughter, Tiana Jenkins, in it. The four of them look very close to each other. The caption accompanying the post says, "Blessed to have the perfect son and daughter." I leave a comment below the post, saying, "Looking good together." A few seconds later, the post is deleted. The next morning, Sabrina rushes home and yells at me. "Ashton Jenkins! Joshua was finally feeling better for once. Why did you have to trigger him again?" Tiana shoves me hard and snaps in an accusatory tone, "It's all your fault that Andy's crying now!" I take out a copy of the divorce agreement and slam it down before them. "Yes, it's all my fault. That's why I'm stepping out of the picture now. Then, the four of you can form the wholesome family you've always wanted."
