FBI Special Agent Katherine "Kat" is unbreakable—until she's not.  At thirty, with her family's curse of early menopause looming like a death sentence and her boyfriend walking out without a backward glance, the badge is all she has left. Justice is her religion, the law her gospel.  Then a blind date turns into a bloodbath.  A man is gunned down mid-conversation, and Kat gives chase to the phantom shooter through rain-slicked streets. He escapes like smoke, but the truth crashes down harder: he's the God of Destruction—the mythic killer the government has hunted for decades, the shadow who eradicates the untouchable criminals the system protects.  Kat swears she'll drag him into cuffs and end the legend.  Every pursuit brings her closer. Every near-miss ignites something darker. He sees the hypocrisy in her oath; she glimpses the justice in his chaos. Stolen glances turn to heated touches. Chases become charged games of cat and mouse.  She's supposed to destroy him.  He's supposed to be her downfall.  But when the hunter falls for the hunted, the only question left is:  Will she lock him away... or burn her world down to stand by his side?

But when obsession burns hotter than reason, will they rise together, or be left in gilded ashes? Excerpt from book: Ezra leaned closer, his voice low enough to scorch. ‘Tell me to stop.’ Harlem’s breath hitched; annoyed at him, annoyed at herself, annoyed at the way her pulse betrayed her.

Xavier's husky voice drifted from the shadows of the cell, making every cell in Asher's body ignite—right down to his peaking nipples. Asher managed to stand his ground, refusing to break even though the crushing weight of Xavier's pheromones threatened to pull him under. "In your damn dreams. I am straight," he declared.

Except Alex. So her mercy slowly began to feel like belonging. ***** It's Omegaverse, where Female Alpha's has a dick.

Claimed by the One They Fear is a dark fantasy romance about a woman who survives the one place no human should—and the ancient force that spares her. Elara crosses the forbidden forest by accident, a place whispered about in fear and sealed by generations of warning. It is ruled by Kaelreth—an immortal presence kingdoms appease with silence and sacrifice. He is not a god, not a king, but something far worse: a living boundary between humanity and ruin. She should not have survived him. Yet the forest does not devour her. Kaelreth does not kill her. And that mercy becomes its own danger. As Elara is drawn back into the forest, she uncovers a truth no one dares speak: the land is sentient, ancient laws are breaking, and her presence has awakened forces that hunger for possession, not peace. Kaelreth, bound to protect what terrifies the world, finds his control unraveling as fascination turns to restraint, and restraint begins to fail. Their connection is forbidden, unequal, and volatile—desire tangled with fear, intimacy edged with threat. To claim Elara may save the forest or destroy it. To walk away may cost them both everything. In a world where love is not gentle and power always demands a price, Claimed by the One They Fear asks: What happens when the monster chooses you—and you choose back?

I'm Julie Michael, I'm 18 I went with my father to a luxurious restaurant in New York, but I never left with him. On a lower floor of a world that doesn’t exist on any map, I discovered the truth: I wasn’t abandoned by accident. I was sold to Robert Cross, a billionaire who buys people for the joy of breaking them. But I refuse to break under his hands. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - "You bought my body, but you will not buy my submission," Julie spat. Robert leaned in, his voice a dark hiss: "Commodities don't need to like their masters, Julie... It’s enough that I took a liking to you and bought you, sweetheart." ______________ Julie stomped the floor with her foot, and agitation was clear in the tone of her voice, which rose slightly as she pointed at my face: "You ran your thumb over your lip! You're hinting to me... hinting that I kissed you!" My composure didn't budge; instead, I tilted my head to the side and looked at her with a gaze shrouded in mischief, then said with utter simplicity: "And what is the problem with that? It was just a kiss." Adult content only Dark Romance Twisted

At nineteen, Roslyn has her life carefully mapped out in the quiet hill station where she lives with her sister-in-law Diana and two adoring nieces. She's sworn to stay far away from the mafia world that destroyed Diana's family and claimed everyone she loved. It's a simple promise: no criminals, no dangerous men, no connections to her only brother Lirio who now took over her father's mafia empire. Roslyn made a promise she intends to keep—no matter the cost she'd never fall for a killer. Then one moved in next door—all dark eyes and dangerous smiles, claiming to be a friendly stranger. Augustus's lying. He's the Apex. And he's hiding in her backyard. Fresh from winning the Blood Gauntlet and claiming the title of Apex—the deadliest young assassin in a generation—he's supposed to be lying low, healing, and staying invisible while every crime family in the hemisphere hunts him for the ultimate prize: a favour from the Mafia Lord himself. Instead, he's stealing roses from her garden to leave on her window, pillow, in between notebooks. And slowly, dangerously, becoming part of her world. She tries to hate him. He makes it impossible. Rose thinks he's an arrogant intruder who's trying to steal even her niece and nephew's affection. He thinks she's a naïve dreamer playing at normalcy while danger circles closer than she realizes.

And when they discover its heirs are still alive—the last surviving ones to a legacy of power—they'll finish what they started. Two people trying to escape their fates. One impossible choice. He can return to his world and protect her from afar. Or he can stay and risk everything—his title, his life, and the fragile promise Rose made to the family she has left. In a story where loving the wrong person can get you killed and trust is a luxury neither can afford, Rose and the Augustus(Apex) must decide: Is love worth dying for? Or is survival worth living without it?

I’m your average girl—well, *was*—who spends most of her days buried in CEO romance novels. Yeah, I know, *so cliche*, right? But hey, we all have our guilty pleasures. So, what about work, you ask? Well, my job made it easy to read the day away as long as I got my tasks done by the end of the day. Sounds perfect, right? Simple, right? Well, that's because I was a librarian. *Past tense.* Why? Because some arrogant, narcissistic jerk gets me fired. Why? Apparently, I didn’t notice him walking up to the counter because I was too busy getting lost in my latest book. Now, you’d think any *normal* person would just tap me on the shoulder and say, “Excuse me.” But no, this guy *decides* to get me fired. Rude? Oh, you bet. But that’s not even the worst part. Oh, no. The real problem started when I decided to get my revenge. That’s when I got tangled up with him… in more ways than one. Now, not only am I working for this narcissistic jerk, but I’m doing it undercover. Why? Because apparently, he has an issue with women working for him... especially when things get *too close* in the sheets. (Yeah, you *get* where this is going.) So, I’m pretending to be a man. Why? Because I need the job. It’s high-paying, and it’s my ticket out of my miserable, *pathetic* life. I mean, revenge is great and all, but I’ve got bills to pay. Money’s my new love, and there’s no way I’m letting some petty rivalry get in the way of it. The tricky part? Balancing my need for cash with the fear of being exposed. I’ve got two huge secrets: one, I’m the woman who shared the sheets with him. And two? I’m a woman, disguised as a man, and praying every day that my cover doesn’t blow. One wrong move, and my entire life—my job, my reputation, my *revenge*—could come crashing down. So, yeah, no pressure. But hey, what’s life without a little drama, right? Right."

I listened to the potential buyers in the hallway as they inspected the females in the other cells. There weren't enough beastmen to go around. In a world where females outnumbered the males twenty to one, the idea that these nine males were sharing one female between them instead of each taking twenty as their own was odd. Unheard of, really. Unless the female was of unparalleled beauty, then... no, I still didn't get it. Tags: reverse-harem, primitive world, beast world, bxb, bxg, gxg
