The Thin Lines Between Us: A Possessive Bully Romance

"Are you kidding me? I get jealous the second somebody else even looks in your direction! Do you think that's because I just want to fuck you?" He demanded. Then he paused, staring at me in that way of his that made me want to crawl out of my skin. "I can't do this anymore," he exclaimed, his mouth wide open, his eyes bigger than saucers. He looked like he wanted to scream. And he might as well have, for what he said next. "I'm in love with you, Rina. I have been for months. That's the reason I can't leave you alone, because I can't get you out of my head!" Tropes: Enemies to lover, bully romance, second chance romance. Written from dual points of view in two different time periods. Trigger warning for brief discussions of child abuse, self-harm, suicide, and dubious consent. 10 years ago, Rina was a foster child placed with a new family in Wellsprings, a wealthy suburb of Washington, D.C.. Prior to the start of her senior year, Rina stumbles upon the captain of the football team, Easton Clarke, shooting steroids before practice. Handsome but an asshole, Rina vows to avoid Easton at all costs. The only problem? He doesn't want to leave her alone. Easton Clarke knows the only way to win his father's approval is to perform on the field. If Rina rats him out for steroid use, his chances of playing college football--and of his father finally being proud of him--will be ruined. Intent on making sure Rina keeps her mouth shut, Easton vows to make her life at Wellsprings as isolated as possible. That is, until Easton realizes he can't get the mysterious new girl out of his head. As fall progresses into winter and secrets begin to come to light, Easton will do anything to keep the girl who could ruin his life to himself. When he goes too far, though, he risks losing everything.

The Last Aetherwyn: Mated to the Alpha Prince

“You think you can win this, Alpha?” Isaldora’s voice was like glass — smooth, sharp, unyielding. “I’ll sever this bond, and when I do, you’ll crawl back to whatever empty life you had before me.” Kaelith’s mouth curved, not in amusement but in longing. “There was no life before you.” Her eyes narrowed, the flicker of the bond tugging at her chest like a chain she refused to acknowledge. “I will ruin you.” He stepped closer, slow enough for her to feel the weight of his presence. “Then do it. Every second you spend trying only ties you tighter to me.” Her lips parted in something between a scoff and a breath. “I feel nothing for you.” “You can deny it all you like,” Kaelith said, his voice low, steady as he pulled her closer, “but this bond doesn’t care what you think.” Her lips parted to reply, but his hand rose — brushing a loose strand of hair behind her ear, his fingers grazing her skin, giving her shivers. “I’m not here to trap you,” he murmured, his voice a deep, steady heat. “I’m here because every time you push me away, I feel you pulling me back.” She hated the way her breath hitched. Hated the way his scent made her pulse drum in her ears. “I will ruin you,” she whispered, softer now, as if testing him. Kaelith’s lips curved — not into a smirk, but something, warmer. “Then ruin me,” he said, his thumb brushing the edge of her jaw. “But don’t walk away after.” Isaldora Vaneese Aetherwyn was royalty among witches — her family’s dominion stretching over vampires, werewolves, and beings older than legend. Until the night her coven was slaughtered. She should have died with them. Instead, she became the last of her line — the most powerful of them all — bound by a blood oath to avenge her family. Six years have passed, and vengeance is all she has left… Until she meets him. Kaelith Duskbane — heir to the Duskhowl Pack — is everything she despises: dominant, relentless, dangerously handsome, and her enemy. A prince known for his coldness, who has been waiting for a mate he thought long dead. Now that he’s found her, he refuses to let her go and would do anything to keep her. She’s the last witch of an ancient royal bloodline, sworn to vengeance. He’s the ruthless Alpha Prince who refuses to let his fated mate go. Isaldora swears she will break the bond. Kaelith swears he will make her stay. But while they circle each other in a dangerous dance of dominance and desire, threats older and darker than either of them has thought are beginning to threaten whatever they believed…

The Devil's Personal Maid

Amelia’s back hit the cold wall, his hand pressed beside her head. His eyes, dark and unreadable, locked onto hers. “You’re not afraid of me,” he said quietly, almost in disbelief.

The banished Luna's secret:three alphas. One hidden wolf. A past.

“I, Alpha Alexander of Black moon Pack, reject Vanessa as my mate and wife. A weak wolfless woman shouldn’t be the Luna of this pack, right? So I chose her sister, Mira, as my fated mate.” Those were the words that shattered her. In front of the entire pack, Vanessa was rejected, stripped of her title, and replaced by her own sister while her best friend supported her sister. The man she was forced to marry… the man she grew to love… humiliated her with a smile. Her sister smirked. Her best friend watched in excitement. They all knew her secret—Vanessa had never shifted. And now, they used it to destroy her. Thrown out like a traitor, she was banished and left to die in the forest. But death didn’t come. Alpha Gerald did. He saved her from rogue wolves. He gave her shelter. But in return, he asked for something she wasn’t ready to give—her truth. Vanessa promised herself never to trust again, but Gerald wasn’t like the others. He didn’t see her as weak. He saw something no one else ever did. Then his fated mate returned… and Vanessa’s secret was exposed once again. Broken. Betrayed. She ran—this time, not from fear, but toward answers. Toward power. Toward the truth about who she really was. She carries the blood of something ancient. And her fate is tied to three Alphas—one who betrayed her, one who saved her, and one who’s yet to come. They want her loyalty. Her love. Her life. But she’s no longer the wolfless girl they rejected. She’s the storm they never saw coming.
