Vanessa Thorne has spent years bearing the weight of her father's alleged betrayal, condemned to serve as a slave within the very pack that once welcomed her family. Scorned and outcast, she endures each day as penance for sins that were never her own. But fate has other plans. When the moon goddess herself intervenes, Vanessa discovers she is bound not to one mate, but to three—Kade, the commanding Alpha, and his brothers Maddox and Rowan. This divine proclamation comes with a dire warning: a prophecy that forbids the rejection of fated mates, threatening catastrophic affliction upon anyone who dares defy the goddess's will. Now Vanessa finds herself caught between three powerful wolves who must accept the daughter of a traitor as their destined mate, while she must navigate the treacherous waters of a bond she never asked for with men who have every reason to despise what she represents. As old wounds fester and pack politics threaten to tear them apart, Vanessa and her three mates must decide whether they'll submit to destiny or risk the goddess's wrath. But in a world where loyalty is everything and her father's shadow looms large, the greatest question remains: can love truly bloom from the ashes of betrayal, or will the prophecy itself become the very affliction it warned against?

For Perseus and Gemini, "Oh, for the love of God, will you shut up already!" might've not been the most conventional opening line for their romantic first encounter or their 'love at first sight' origin story, then again; not all happily-ever-afters has to start with any of those things. Sometimes, a shot at forever starts with a spark of irritation, a truck-load of confusion, a dash of frustration, and a whole lot of attitude!

Katherine Blaire has worked six grueling years to rise to the top of the banking world of Manhattan. Confident, voluptuous, and ambitious, she's nearly within reach of the promotion that will help to finance the college education of her autistic brother. She needs but one account- the account of Anthony Marvin, arguably the most influential and dangerous man in New York. Anthony "Tony" Marvin doesn't just own hotels and nightclubs. He controls both legitimate and underground empires as the heir of the most notorious mafia family in the city. Tony is ruthless, heartbreakingly handsome, and untouchable until Katherine enters his club with the business plan and with an unwavering refusal to back away from him. When Tony offers Katherine something she cannot refuse —a night with him in exchange for the contract —she storms out, humiliated and outraged. But Tony is interested in the woman who had the strength to say no to him, and Katherine finds herself drawn into a dangerous game of power struggle, desire, and growing love. As their relationship grows stronger, Tony's father, the ruthless mafia kingpin Thomas Marvin, will do whatever it takes to eliminate what he sees as his son's greatest weakness. Surrounded by enemies and with Katherine's entire family in danger, she and Tony must decide if their love is worth risking everything — including their lives. In a world in which love is the ultimate vulnerability, can a banker and a mafia prince redefine the rules of power?

(trigger warning. This book contains mature themes) ****** "I can't..." she gasped between broken moans, her voice trembling somewhere between pain and pleasure. Every thrust seemed to blur the line between surrender and defiance. Then she whispered a name between her sweet cries ...it wasn’t mine. I froze. A slow, humorless smile curved my lips as the sound of his name filled the space between us. “Raph…” she breathed. I leaned in, my mouth brushing her ear. Feeling her tremble from touch until my teeth nibbled her earlobes hard enough to make her whimper and her fold to clench around my fingers. “Wrong name, Lynn.” I hissed, withdrawing from the warmth of her insides. I felt her body tense. She clawed at my shoulders, a desperate plea in every touch. “Don’t…” she whimpered. Those jade-like eyes unravelled me that moment. I could feel the ache in my trousers. A troublesome little viper. A cruel smile traced my lips hiding my emotions. “You called the wrong name,” I murmured, my voice low, dangerous. “And bad girls deserve to be punished.” Her glossy eyes met mine... so full of confusion, want, and power she didn’t yet understand. If she only knew how close I was to breaking. Because the only name she should be calling… was mine. Lucien. I craved it as badly as the air I breathe. ****** For better or for worse, till death do us part. That was their vows at the altar, but her husband broke them first..

She never expected to see him again after she ran, forgetting his sinful existence, but life wasn't done making a joke out of her. Lucien isn't just any man, but one who can destroy everything she believes in. The man she was never meant to meet. Her husband's uncle The black sheep of the Volkov dynasty. A man whose desire will ruin her. Lucien knows she can't be his, but he was never a man who respected social norms. He doesn't care about anything but her every sin and touch. All he wants… is her, no matter how sinful it gets.

He was once the Empire’s strongest weapon. Now he is kept. Watched. Tracked. Waited for. General Kairen Aethel commanded armies with his presence alone. He did not beg. He did not break. Until the Vahn Dynasty took everything from him with a single signature. No battlefield. No warning. Just a contract. A ring locked onto his finger. A marriage ordered, not offered. A future decided without consent. To delay the inevitable, rebellion forces him into hiding. At Obsidian University, Kairen becomes Kai Stryker—a quiet lecturer with a false name and a very real deadline. He searches for a way out. For proof. For anything that could shatter the contract and burn the empire that made him property. Instead, he finds someone who makes the noise in his head go quiet. Near this man, Kairen can breathe. Think. Exist without pain. Too easily. Because resistance begins to feel wrong. Distance begins to hurt. And the outside world starts to feel empty without him. When the truth finally surfaces, the question will not be whether Kairen was deceived. The question is this: Will he kill the man who remade his world— Or burn the empire down so they never have to be separated? Empires can fall. Worlds can burn. As long as Kairen stays.

The masks are gone. The consequences remain. In the aftermath of Between Masks, Noah Wellin and Atlas Sterlins are no longer protected by secrecy. What surfaced between them did not bring freedom—it drew attention. From families who built empires on silence. From a world where legacy is currency and reputation is law. What began as obsession has become necessity. What started as desire has evolved into addiction—and in their world, addiction is a weapon. Noah must decide what survives when identity collides with expectation. Atlas learns that dominance means nothing when the rules are written by forces far older and far colder than either of them. Old-money alliances tighten. Private threats take shape. Every choice now carries weight. Love, once hidden, becomes a vulnerability. Intimacy turns into leverage. Power is no longer inherited—it is negotiated. What binds them now is not just want. It’s risk. It’s ruin. Because in an elite world that punishes exposure, being seen means one thing: you either control the narrative, or the narrative controls you. After the Masks Fell continues the story of Between Masks, diving deeper into obsession, family control, and the cost of visibility in a world built on silence. This is not a romance about discovery. It is about what happens when powerful families notice. When they intervene. When love stops being freedom and becomes a liability that must be managed. Some masks fall. Others are removed for you. For readers drawn to dark romance, elite family power struggles, obsessive love, dangerous intimacy, LGBTQ+ relationships, and stories where desire is both salvation and destruction.
