WARNING: MATURE CONTENT THIS STORY CONTAINS MENTIONS OF BDSM THEMES AND MATURE LANGUAGE. READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED. 18+ ONLY Nyx Everharts had only known submission as pain, degradation, and suffering. Forced into servitude by Severin Volkov, a cruel Dom who twisted the meaning of control, she barely escaped with her life-collapsing at the doorstep of a club she thought would be her salvation. Raphael Devereux never expected to find a broken submissive at his feet. As a respected Dom with strict rules and an unwavering sense of responsibility, he saw the terror in her eyes, the scars of her past, and knew one thing-she needed protection. But more than that, she needed to unlearn everything she thought she knew about submission. Taking her under his wing, Raphael teaches Nyx the true meaning of a D/s relationship-where trust, communication, and consent reign supreme. But as he slowly breaks down her walls, igniting desires she never thought she could feel again, an old threat lingers in the shadows. Her past isn't done with her yet. Severin Volkov is coming back for what he believes is his. As Nyx rediscovers her own strength and the beauty of surrender, she must decide-will she submit out of fear, or will she choose submission as power? In a world where pleasure and pain dance on a delicate edge, can love truly be the ultimate form of control?

THE CROWN OF WATERS

Noel Vallis, a young boy born into the noble Vallis family, has always lived in the shadow of expectations. As the heir to a powerful estate, his life seems destined to follow a strict path, but Noel has always felt out of place. Raised in a world of discipline and secrets, he yearns for something more—something that doesn’t conform to the rigid rules of his family. When Noel discovers his mysterious connection to the ancient koi pond on his family’s estate, he unwittingly awakens a dormant power tied to his bloodline. Magic surges within him, but it’s a power that cannot be controlled. A dark crystal refuses to react, and Noel is left questioning his place in the Vallis legacy. His only confidant, Ethen—his childhood friend and the son of his nanny—reveals that Noel is not just any heir, but the true heir to an ancient, magical legacy tied to the very land itself. The Vallis family’s secrets have been hidden for centuries, lost during the Empire Unification War. No heir has appeared in over 300 years, and Duke Vallis, Noel’s father, remains unaware of the true history that binds their family to an ancient seal—the Throne of Waters. This seal lies within the koi pond, a place that has always comforted Noel, but now holds a deeper meaning. It is a key to immense, untapped power, and only Noel, as the true heir, can unlock it. With the help of Ethen, Noel begins a journey of self-discovery and magical awakening. But the power within him comes with a price. As he grows stronger, he must confront his fears, his painful past, and the dark secrets of the Vallis family. The road ahead is fraught with danger, and Noel must learn to master the magic that flows through his veins, all while protecting his family’s legacy from those who seek to control it for their own gain.
