When her past relationship is dragged into the spotlight and she’s publicly accused of being the killer of her ex, the world expects her to fight. But Elara is hollowed out, her fire replaced by a cold, haunting silence. Instead of clearing her name, she simply stops caring. Letting her new manager handle it all. ​Isla Matthews. Known in the industry as "The Fixer". She is the woman you hire when the fire is too big to put out. She comes into Elara’s life as her new manager with a single objective: scrub the scandal and resurrect the star. ​Isla has one rule: No feelings attached. She’s disciplined, logical, and detached. But one look at the broken, defiant Elara turns her world into complete nonsense. The attraction is immediate and dangerous. As Isla works to piece Elara’s reputation back together, she finds herself wanting her. Something that could ruin her entirely. ​But the "Fall from Grace" wasn't an accident. As they get closer, Elara begins to uncover the jagged truth behind her ruin. It wasn't just bad luck or a former manager’s greed, it was a calculated hit. ​When the mask finally falls, Elara must decide, and if Isla is part of the world that betrayed her, can their "relationship" survive the truth? Because Isla Matthews may not just be fixing the disaster. She may be part of it.

Who says a eunuch can’t fall in love? In the noble courts of Valemont, everyone seems to agree that he cannot. Theodore von Virchow is the duke’s second son. A decorated war hero. A man of quiet authority whose cold composure makes even seasoned nobles uneasy. And he is devastatingly handsome. Tall, broad-shouldered, and sinfully good-looking, Theodore looks like a man carved by the gods themselves. Many whisper that such beauty is a cruel waste on a eunuch. With a single declaration, Theodore placed himself beyond the expectations of marriage, heirs, and romantic pursuits. Society accepted it without question. The court pitied him. The women stopped pursuing him. And life quietly moved on. Everyone accepted the truth. Everyone… except Everetta Whitmore. For thirteen years, Everetta has loved exactly one man. While society calls her foolish and her parents attempt to marry her off to more suitable lords, she refuses every offer placed before her. Because Everetta Whitmore does not believe love should be so easily abandoned. And if Theodore von Virchow truly is a eunuch? Then she intends to find out exactly what a eunuch ‘can’ do. Everetta begins a relentless pursuit that shocks the entire court. From scandalous masquerade balls to suspiciously convenient accidents in gardens, libraries, and moonlit balconies, she repeatedly throws herself into Theodore’s path with reckless determination. She bumps into him. Provokes him. Tempts him. And every time he tries to escape her, she only chases harder. Until one evening, Theodore finally snaps. “You are chasing a man who cannot give you anything,” he says coldly. “Have you no dignity?” Everetta only smiles. “Dignity?” she says sweetly. “If I cared about dignity, I wouldn’t be in love with you.” But Theodore von Virchow is a man who keeps his distance from the world, guarding himself behind silence and restraint. Least of all does he want the stubborn woman who refuses to leave him alone anywhere near his carefully ordered life. Yet the more Everetta chases him, the more impossible it becomes for him to ignore her. Because chasing a man who insists he cannot love her might ruin her reputation… but Everetta has never been afraid of scandal. … A scandalous historical romance about obsession, forbidden desire, and the relentless woman determined to prove that even a eunuch cannot escape love forever.

The story begins. Ian thought he was just a little wizard with a small talent [cheat ability], who could become stronger through hard work. However... As the story unfolds, he gradually starts to realize that the teachers he’s been following to learn magic are either once-renowned powerhouses or characters mentioned in various legendary tales. “Standing before you is the noble apostle of the Shifting Illusions, the common spokesperson of the Old Ones, and the designated successor of the founders of Hogwarts!” “What? The noseless freak wants to stir up trouble? He must not have heard of my original spells, which are even recorded on the famous wizard collection cards in Chocolate Frogs!” “The Dumbledore Summoning Charm!” “The Dumbledore Berserk Charm!” Ian chants the "Expecto Patronum" spell. Suddenly, silver-white threads burst forth and converge, forming the figure that had caused a certain professor to live his entire life trapped in guilt, standing protectively in front of him.

Power is not found through some arbitrary system, sacred teaching, or the tedious crawling through dungeons with unknown beasts or opponents lurking around every corner. Nor is it the ability to harvest the best fruit of the land - no matter if the fruit is a dragon, beast, or weapon. Courage, Wisdom, Friendship, and Love were the Four Souls needed to forge the Shikon Jewel in Inuyasha's mythos if one wanted to be righteous. Corruption of either part of the souls created Magatsuhi and Naraku, and the same can be said for the Lord of the Western Lands, Sesshomaru. But, how true is that when we know little about his past or him for that matter? Do you truly believe his story ended in the Final Act simply because he defeated Meido Zangetsuha and obtained Bakusaiga? Or, is there untapped power beyond his father's trials? What must be learned in order to truly rule the House of Inu?

Viola was once the pride of her pack, destined to rise above everyone on the day she received her wolf. Instead, that day marked her fall. She had been the villain in countless stories, untouchable and adored by the Alpha heir, until the night her wolf was supposed to awaken, and fate played its cruelest joke. She fell to the lowest rank in her pack, rejected by her sworn mate. Stripped of status, strength, and even her wolf, she was forced to live a life worse than that of an omega. Imprisoned and alone, Viola’s only hope of escape lay in finding her wolf, or her fated mate. Only, a dark past kept her powers dormant… and her fated mate didn’t want her. Sebastian Kade is powerful, ruthless, and chained to a past he refuses to release. Viola Linden does not belong in his world, and he wants her gone. Fate, however, disagrees. This fragile, stubborn girl refuses to leave his orbit. He does not believe in love. He does not want her. He has already lost too much. An Alpha who swore off weakness, hardened by loss and haunted by a prophecy that feels more like a curse, Sebastian is certain he will never allow another woman into his life. But the Moon Goddess is rarely kind. Viola carries something ancient within her, something dangerous, something powerful enough to defy him. Hate twists into desire. Desire ignites into fierce passion. And passion threatens to become love. But when Sebastian discovers what Viola truly carries within her, will it save him… or destroy everything he’s built? ~~~ WARNING: MATURE CONTENT! #Slow burn #Spicy #Morally Gray ML #Adventure #Angst

"I told you." He murmurs, his hand trailing over my ankle, and slowly upwards my exposed thigh. "I said you would always be mine." His smooth, velvety voice deepens my fear and trepidation. What part of that wasn't clear enough to you? Tell me, Chayanne." He adds, caressing my cheek as his finger finds its way into my core. I let out a broken sob. "Please. . . Please Kael." The amused smile that plays on his lips tells me there would be no mercy. The last thing I remember is completing my wedding and heading home in a car with my newlywed husband. But I had woken up and found myself naked and tied to a small iron bed. The exact same place it had all begun. And with a man who shouldn't be here. A man whose deep obsession with me clings like fastened shackles. When I entered into a fetish relationship with my bodyguard three years ago, I had an inkling I was playing with fire. But I had pushed it aside, thinking it would only scald at most. What I never saw was his deep obsession with me. I thought it was over when I got him locked up at an asylum. I thought I had successfully escaped him. But now I am back where it all began. Trapped once again in his psychotic obsession.
