Cyra Aveline Berkeley and Adrian Hugo were bound by a marriage that conceals more than it reveals. Both teeter on the edge of madness and sadism, and in their union, there are only whispers of what has been done, and promises of what is yet to come.
She was scandalous, cruel and disobedient - an exquisite storm no man could command.
He was the shadow who dared to tame her, and the predator who savored the fight.
But both Adrian and Cyra are prisoners of their own secrets; bloodied histories they cannot confess, sins that whisper in the dark, truths that, if unveiled, would destroy everything they pretend to be, truths so vile they would shatter the empires they wore like crowns.
They are dangerous and merciless - two flames drawn together by obsession and depravity.
But, the closer you look, the less you trust anything that you see, and the more you start to realise that... something is terrifyingly wrong.

My Boyfriend's Billionaire Daddy
"You have no idea how many times I've imagined this." She whispered as her lips crashed down on his. Hearing her say those words nearly made him cum in his boxer briefs. He'd had so many beautiful, sexy women, but Cyra turned him on more than any of them. There were a hundred reasons why he shouldn't be doing exactly what he was doing and yet it felt so perfectly right. Logan tried to let Cyra control the speed that they were going as he continued to kiss her passionately. He didn't want to take things too fast. But she was rubbing her tight little pussy back and forth across his cock, and although there were three layers of fabric between them, she was doing it in such a way that made it impossible for him to think of anything else. His hands gripped her waist, as he took a slow, deep breath. Fuck if she didn't stop he was going to bend her over the table and fuck her right there and he was trying to take things slow with her. Or relatively slow. If she'd been his new personal assistant she already would have been on her knees sucking him off. ------ When Cyra goes to work for the business that her father owns with his business partner, who happens to be her boyfriend's father, she thinks she's in for the most boring summer before college ever. But then the one man she shouldn't look twice at catches her eye and she realizes that she's caught his as well, and the summer gets hotter than she ever expected it to be. ⚠️THIS STORY HAS EXPLICIT SCENES AND MATURE CONTENT.

NEVER EVER (Charlotte's story)
He let out a slight shrug, "Putting you to death was not what I was pointing towards. After all, it is merely the mouth that talks." I shivered, as I blinked naïvely, "Humph! A-And are there methods to silence this alone?" I huffed. He snapped his arrogant, coldly-heated gaze in my direction, and my insides clenched, as I noticed his deep, powerful ocean orbs snap down to my... lips. He then snapped his gaze away, fixing his right wrist watch as his deep, authoritative voice came: "Many, trust me." ~~~~~~~~ Fate has a weird hobby of slamming us right in the face about things we so took for granted. My name is Charlotte Thorne. Never claimed to be special, never cared about that. I grew up behind the pages of my books and in the different worlds of my love and romance novels. The world, as I knew it, consisted of my humble yet happy family, my studies, hobbies, friends and a potential perfect love story I was supposed to live. Now what happens when the world, as I knew it, turns out to be mostly a lie I've lived in for a long time? I conclude a simple golden rule: Love is pure, illogical crap. And so, long story short: with my nëw rules, a strict vow, a new family, fresh job, and on top of all those, a cold and arrogant Rickard Ellington Conway as my employer, guess I have a whole lot to deal with in this fresh new world of mine ─which'll get rather interesting... Book I of the Charlotte's Story Series. Trigger Warning: This story may contain scenes/content of violence, vulgar language, etc. that might be triggering to some audience.

She Called Me Dandelion

Drifting from place to place her whole life, she's learned to survive off scraps of kindness and the lessons strangers leave behind. But when she takes a job in the home of Amadora Quintero, a sharp-tongued prosecutor and single mother with a daughter as fiery as she is, Dani finds herself in uncharted territory. Amadora has built her career on control: in the courtroom, in her home, and within herself. But since Dani's arrival, restraint has begun to feel less like strength and more like a chain she's itching to break. Dani isn't sure if she's stepping into safety or surrender, and Amadora isn't sure if she wants to protect the girl... or ruin her. (Full Synopsis + warnings inside)
