The Affinity of Fate

Snow bites deeper than steel, and cages leave scars no eyes can see. Q97 is not a boy with a name—he is a number, an experiment carved from cruelty in the underground labs of vampires. In a world where hybrids are treated as disposable tools, his only hope is escape. Guided by the secret writings of those who came before him, he follows a path dug by rabbits and buried in whispers, chasing freedom through tunnels that lead toward human lands. But freedom has a price: the moment he crosses the border, he can never return. Never again to the castle’s red spires. Never again to the rose garden. Never again to the one vampire who gave him warmth when the world froze him numb. Sir Draven—the quiet gardener with golden eyes who carved clumsy little sculptures of ice just for him. Roses that melted by morning. A kindness that should not have existed. A memory Q97 cannot take with him, yet cannot leave behind. This is not a story of quick love or easy salvation. It is a slow journey of survival, longing, and fragile bonds that burn against the cold. A tale for those who believe that even in the darkest experiments, even under cages and snow, a single rose can bloom. ***** This is a slowburn, character-driven story. If you love emotional depth, healing & growing arcs, and found-family themes, this is for you. Stick around past chapter 10, that's when the heart of the story begins to unfold. Warning: mpreg, almost all male experiments have wombs. Please proceed with caution if you are uncomfortable. Romance will start when MC is older, Thank you ^^

A celebrated author, a sharp-minded teacher, and one of the most elusive underground hackers in the cyber realm, she hides behind a calm smile, her secrets buried deep beneath code and firewalls. But one night in City X shatters her carefully built peace. A book signing, a few too many drinks, a stranger cloaked in charm and danger... and the next morning, a blank memory, fragments of a signature, a hotel room, and a man she can’t forget. Back in City C, she expects to move on, until a knock on her door changes everything. “I’m your husband,” he says. He’s younger, commanding, and far too dangerous to be ordinary. A soldier in a classified military division, one that operates in the shadows of reality, where enhanced beings and forbidden science blur the line between man and monster. Bound by a marriage contract, they’re pulled into a world of covert missions, genetic experiments, and an ancient organization determined to control the evolution of mankind. She’s a hacker who steals secrets. He’s a soldier sworn to protect them.

He unzipped his jeans, shoving them down. His cock sprang free... thick, veined, at least eight inches, head glistening. I stared, mouth watering. "Wow, Ren… it's huge." "All for you since you said you can handle me." He stroked it once. "Now, bend over the desk." I turned, ass up, gripping both sides of the desk. He rubbed the tip against my clit. "Ready?" "Yes, fuck me!" ★★★ I've always liked him since I was eighteen. Lorenzo Morano... my brother's best friend, and the CEO of Morano's Holdings.

Now, I'm twenty-four, interning at his company and worst of all, staying alone with him in his penthouse for my last semester break just as my brother has suggested. But I'm no longer a teenager... and I want him to see me the way I've always wanted. I want to feel the heat of his perfect body against mine, and experience what it would be like to be his. I'm done playing the nice innocent girl he once knew. I'm going to break the rules and seduce him first. Because if I don't, I'll never forgive myself. And once I do… will he give in despite our age gap and forbidden love?

The Mafia’s Fifth Wife

At twenty-three, Liana Verretti’s world ends twice—First, when she walks in on her longtime boyfriend tangled in bed with her own sister. And second, when her parents tell her the only way to pay their crushing debt is to sell her into marriage with Cassian Romano, the notorious mafia heir rumored to have murdered his previous four wives. Liana resisted. She begged. She screamed. Until her mother slapped her and said, “We raised you, Liana. It’s time you repay us.” Heartbroken and numb, Liana stopped fighting. If dying was her only escape, then so be it. After all, what’s left to fear when the people you love have already killed you inside? And so, she became the fifth bride of the man everyone feared. On her wedding night, when the bedroom door creaked open, Liana froze. A tall, impossibly handsome man stood in the shadows—broad shoulders, cold eyes, and a presence like a storm waiting to break. Her lips trembled as she whispered, “So… the infamous murderer has a handsome son?” The man’s gaze darkened; a smirk ghosted across his lips. “Son?” His voice was low, dangerous, and almost amused. “You wound me, Mrs. Romano.” He took a step closer, his scent—smoke and danger—curling around her. “It’s not every day my wife calls me a murderer to my face.” Liana’s breath hitched. This was no stranger. This was her husband. The man she was sold to. The man everyone said would kill her next. But as his eyes lingered on her, something in his gaze burned—not cruelty, but possession. She thought she was marrying death. She didn’t expect death to want to keep her alive.

A Saint And A Sinner

Note: I'll be posting this story on https://www.royalroad.com/profile/820403/fictions and Dreame App “You shouldn’t be out here tonight.” The words weren’t a warning—they were a vow. Vincent Moretti’s voice was low, steady, carrying the weight of a man used to bending the world to his will. To Jennifer Lawrence, it felt like both a shield and a cage. At twenty-three, Jennifer has only ever known survival. Abandoned to an orphanage, dropped out of school at seventeen, she grew up with no family, no future, and no way out. The streets became her battlefield, and the night her cruelest master. Selling pieces of herself kept her alive, but it hollowed her—leaving a woman who aches for love yet no longer believes she deserves it. Vincent, thirty-four, has everything except peace. A billionaire built on discipline and ruthlessness, his empire gleams while his heart fractures. A bitter divorce threatens not only his fortune but the legacy his family name was built on. And then—in the middle of a storm—he meets Jennifer. Not as a client, but as a man whose brokenness recognizes her own. Their worlds should never touch. His is a golden cage of wealth and expectation; hers, a shadowed fight for dignity. But the spark between them is too fierce to ignore—dangerous, consuming, forbidden. Society will condemn it. His name could be destroyed. And her past might ruin them both. Yet in the ashes of what they’ve lost, love may be the only thing powerful enough to save them…or burn them alive.
