Love is just a word but why does it hurt so much when it's not there? Its been centuries since I last saw her, since I last heard her voice. Since I last saw her eyes which held promises of life time in them, the memories like a shard of glass piercing my heart anew. Life is no longer the same, as the whole world feels darker now. I am haunted by her memories and guilt consume me anytime I think of her. What could I have done differently? Was I not strong enough to protect her? The questions haunt me leaving me no solace. I am the prince of the vampires. A title that feels like a cruel joke. I am a broken soul who no longer sees any joy in living forever, for what is eternity without the one you love? . I am the man who lost his soulmate to the cruel arms of death. I am Rasmus and I am utterly lost. Untill I met her, Isabelle. Her very presence inspired emotions in me I tought were long lost in the sands of time. But I am confused, is she my salvation? Or am i forever condemned to chase after the shadows of my past? ******************************* Join my discord. Let's interact https://discord.gg/GURD83wweY

Two professionals. One fracture. And the slow collapse of the walls they built to survive. Lucas Marlowe built his life around control. In a world of corporate image and crisis strategy, he knows how to stay untouchable—disciplined, invisible, invulnerable. Emily Verrill, poised and unflinching, has learned how to stay ahead by never letting anyone close. They don’t chase power. They endure it. When they’re assigned to a delicate, high-stakes case together, it begins like any other job: calculated, distant, seamless. But structure becomes tension. Tension becomes pull. And somewhere in the quiet—beneath ritual, ritual, ritual—something begins to crack. This isn’t a romance born from spark. It’s a slow surrender built on silence, misread glances, and the ache of wanting what neither of them will admit. For readers who crave restraint, unraveling, and the sharp edge of emotional precision—this is a story of dominance, submission, and the long road to intimacy.

But as she watches him stand beside another, hand resting on the waist of the woman he’s meant to be with, she wonders if she was always destined to be the outsider. "You knew," she says, voice barely above a whisper. "You knew how I felt." His jaw tightens, but he doesn’t deny it. He never does. "It wouldn’t have changed anything," he finally says. She laughs bitterly. "I know." Loving him was always impossible. He belonged to someone else. To his family’s expectations. To a future where Elaine had no place. "Forget whatever you think you feel," he tells her, voice firm, but there’s something unspoken in his eyes—something that makes it hurt even more. "It will never happen." And yet, his gaze lingers, just for a second too long. Then there’s her best friend—the one who stands beside her when the world turns its back. The one who sees her pain without asking.

She wants to move forward. But some loves are impossible to forget. Some wounds never truly heal. And some desires, no matter how forbidden, refuse to die. _____ "loving him best decision i ever made" Elaine "you are my world"

Theo Sterling, a ruthlessly ambitious corporate climber, is violently ejected from his career and finds himself facing the poverty he desperately fears. With only $2,000 between him and the streets, a mysterious mental breakdown leaves him with an impossible gift, the power to grant any object a permanent "+1" enhancement. Driven by his gnawing terror of failure, Theo begins methodically exploiting his unique ability, with the aim of becoming a billionaire. From enhancing basic knives for quick cash (and cutting ethical corners when necessary), to optimizing high-value bicycles for substantial profit, he relentlessly seeks ways to maximize the return on each precious enhancement. Navigating a mundane world with his special power, Theo readily pushes ethics aside, believing ruthlessness is the only path to the almighty profit. As he dives headfirst into more questionable and morally grey endeavours, his bank account swells, but does this solitary climb built on calculated risks lead only to an isolating peak? Or is there a heavier, unseen cost to Theo’s singular pursuit of money? What to Expect: - Money, lots of it, it's all about money! - Progression Fantasy, tracking Theo's path to becoming a billionaire, or die trying - Low fantasy, ability to enhance items with +1, and the ingenious ways of using this to make money - LitRPG used to track profit and losses using a ledger, the measure of wealth and success - Ethics and Morals... nah not really.
