A Rose for Damien

"Till death do us part." ****** Rosetta Black lost all hope when her fiancé together with her bestfriend were shot right before her, on her wedding day. She disappeared for three years without a trace only to return with a new identity. Rose, just Rose. Damien Pierce is the CEO of Pierce Corp at day and a Mafia boss at night. One night, he meets a defiant waitress at a club he owns, and every night he comes back not for the drinks, but for her. She was never meant to be his. But now that she has caught his attention… He won’t let her go. ***** EXCERPT “You think you can walk away?” His voice was a dangerous whisper, close enough to burn. “Walking is too slow, I'll run... away from your madness.” She met his gaze, steady, but her heart was a hurricane. “You don’t get to decide.” He stepped in, stealing the space between them. “Not anymore.” Her breath hitched. “Then what... are you going to claim me? Like some prize?” He laughed darkly, maniacally and threateningly. “No. I’m going to make you want me. Make you need me. Until you can’t remember why you ever tried to leave.” Her hands trembled, but she didn’t pull away. “And if I fight?” His eyes blazed. “Then I’ll break you. Piece by piece. Because you belong to me.” She swallowed the fire threatening to spill out. “I’m not yours.” “Not yet.” His lips brushed her ear. “But soon enough, you will be.” ****** Rose: "I ran from death. And he gave me a new name–his." Damien: "She was never mine to take. So I claimed her by force."

Midnight Heiress: Bound by Blood and Moonlight

Midnight Heiress: Bound by Blood and Moonlight A vampire heiress in hiding. A human she was never meant to love. And a fate written in blood and moonlight. Midnight Ashton lives a life built on control. As the composed and powerful head of a rising company in Thailand, she is admired for her authority, feared for her precision, and known for her calm distance from the world. To everyone else, she is human—brilliant, untouchable, and alone. But Midnight carries a truth buried in blood. She is the last heir to a fallen vampire throne, hiding from the uncle who murdered her parents and stole her birthright. Bound by secrecy and survival, Midnight suppresses her true nature, believing that power kept hidden is power that can still protect. Then she meets Amara—a warm, ordinary woman whose presence unsettles everything Midnight has built. Drawn together by fate and an unexplainable pull, their bond deepens into a love that feels older than memory itself. As Midnight struggles to keep her secrets, her powers begin to awaken on their own—responding not to danger, but to recognition. A living shield moves without command. Wind and earth obey her emotions. And somewhere unseen, an ancient guardian watches over them both. As Morvane, the ruthless vampire king, closes in—obsessed with Midnight’s defiance and intrigued by the invisible force protecting her—the balance begins to fracture. Midnight’s power evolves. Her shield listens. Her blood remembers. And Amara begins to notice the impossible. Between love and truth, protection and honesty, Midnight faces an inevitable choice: to continue hiding behind her armor… or to risk everything by revealing who she truly is. Because some destinies cannot remain hidden. And when blood, moonlight, and love align— fate finally looks back.

REBIRTH : Chasing The Limelight

Elara’s first life crashed hard. Cruel tricks ruined her name, broke her dreams, and turned the whole entertainment world against her. Friends betrayed her. Lovers sold her out. Everyone she trusted stabbed her in the back. The pain piled up until she felt trapped with no way out. One night, she couldn’t take it anymore. She walked to the river and ended it all in the cold, quiet water. Later, proof came out. Messages. Recordings. Everything showed she had been framed. People posted apologies online. But it was too late. She was already gone. The universe, though, clearly has a twisted sense of humor. Because somehow, Elara came back. She woke up in her own past, every awful memory still sharp in her head. Right then she made a promise she would never break: protect her gentle grandfather no matter what, and never let anyone push her to that dark place again. This time she steps into the entertainment world with her head high. She trains harder, sings better, fights smarter. The same people who once crushed her? Now they get to feel the pressure. Love? Not happening. Her heart is locked tight. But why is it that as she rises and shines brighter, handsome, powerful men start circling her—guys who never even glanced at her in her previous life were now hovering around her. The actor smiled at her during a press interview, leaned closer, and said softly, “We should have dinner sometime.” The footballer sent flowers so big they blocked her room door. The surgeon she met at a charity event checked her pulse and then forgot to let go of her wrist. The singer she collaborated with kept calling her name during rehearsals, as if the mic could not hear him well enough. Elara stared at the ceiling that night and sighed. She only wanted to sing. Why did everyone look like they wanted to adopt her, date her, or both? But the worst one came after the concert. The lights had just gone off. Her ears were still ringing. Sweat clung to her neck. She had barely stepped backstage when a shadow blocked her path. She looked up. The CEO of the greatest company in Aurelia stood there. The same man who once said her voice was “not worth investing in.” The same man who did not even know her name before rebirth. Now he held her wrist lightly, but firmly. “Let’s talk,” he said. Elara blinked. “About… sponsorship?” “No,” he replied calmly. “About marriage.” Her brain froze. “…What?” “I will give you everything,” he continued, as if asking for a glass of water. “Resources. Protection. Freedom to sing. Become my wife.” Elara stared at him, her mouth open, her thoughts running in circles. This was not how it was supposed to be. Why was the world now skipping steps? NB: This story takes place in a fictional world. Aurelia is a country. Solmere, Veston, and Starfall City are the three capital cities of Aurelia. Other cities, such as Lorien and Crelou, are smaller cities.
