As big as the world is to a normal human being, to him it seemed like an Island. His family's Empire reaches almost to the heavens. They have eyes everywhere making it impossible to escape their wrath. Their vast expanse of wealth grants them super powers. They have the power that can will any country on Earth as a person could easily manage a small grocery store business.

… “Is something wrong?” He sighed. He stayed quiet for a few seconds before he spoke. “I don’t think we should continue this partnership.” His tone sent chills down my spine.  “What do you mean?” I questioned. “Your feelings,” he said ‘feelings’ like the word disgusted him, “have changed and it no longer aligns with the agenda.” “How dare you? Who gave you information that helped get your company back from the Gulfs? Who was it that kept feeding you information about the Gulfs businesses. It was me.” I yelled, my tone no longer friendly.  I’d met Gabriel when he had recently lost his company to Christian. He was at the brink of bankruptcy and Christian had made him an offer he couldn’t refuse. He’d been stupid enough to sign a contract without reading it because he was desperate, and ended up losing more than they’d originally agreed. “Now that you have your precious company back and some shares in the Gulf enterprise you think you can dump me with a stupid excuse like our motives no longer align? Don’t you fucking dare. I own you.” I shook with rage, ending the call before he had a chance to reply to me. My rage immediately became fear when I turned around and saw Christian standing by the door in my room. “So you did take me up on my offer.” He was smiling, and the contrast in his words and demeanor only made me more afraid. 

Selene was born into a world where fate is written in the stars—and hers was sealed long before she took her first breath. The queen of her dying kingdom struck a desperate deal with the ancient Moon Court, promising her unborn daughter in marriage to Azrael, the feared and immortal Moon King. For centuries, Azrael has ruled with an iron fist, his heart consumed by darkness, trapped in a curse that keeps him bound to the throne.On Selene’s eighteenth birthday, the curse awakens, and Azrael arrives to claim his bride. Cold, ruthless, and terrifying, he is everything Selene feared—and yet, there’s something more beneath the surface. His eyes, once filled with nothing but contempt, now reveal a flicker of something else. Something dangerous. Something human. Taken to the Moon Court, Selene is thrust into a world of magic, betrayal, and power struggles, where her very existence is the key to Azrael’s curse. The kingdom she’s bound to save may not be worth saving, and the man she’s promised to may be the very darkness that will destroy them both.But as the days pass, Azrael’s cruelty begins to crack, revealing a tortured soul beneath. Hatred turns to obsession, and obsession transforms into something neither of them expected: love. Yet, Selene knows she can’t trust him—no matter how much he changes, no matter how deeply her heart pulls her toward him. The prophecy says she will either break him… or destroy them both. In a world where love is as dangerous as the curse that binds them, Selene must decide if she will save Azrael from himself—or embrace the darkness that lies within them both.

In a court filled with vipers, where betrayal is currency and secrets are more dangerous than blades, she must survive a world where love is a game and power is the ultimate prize.

To stop her adversaries from destroying everything that she had dreamt of since she was a child, Briar would be forced to make choices. Choices that would change her life forever. Even if it means shedding all pretenses and revealing her true self.

When my mother collapsed from a heart attack and needed an emergency surgery that I couldn’t afford, I was left with no options—until I heard about Kieran Anderson. A billionaire. A man feared in the business world. And the groom left standing at the altar. I knew what I had to do. I walked into his office, dropped to my knees, and made an offer he couldn’t refuse. Marriage.

As its influence creeps into the world, society teeters on the edge of unraveling. Caught in this cosmic storm are two high school girls from Corwood, Tennessee.

Hyejin Seo wants him dead. And Dominic? He wants to keep him. Even though he knows—Xavier is a problem. A weakness. A mistake waiting to happen. But it’s already too late.

Taken. Bound. Claimed. Vesaria was a lady of the south, refined, educated, untouchable. Until the night the rogue Northmen came. Stolen from her home, dragged across a frozen, unforgiving land, she is forced to wed the warlord who led the raid. Khan Azgar, the Black Wolf. A beast of a man, feared even among his own kind. But Vesaria refuses to break. She fights, she resists, she runs. And yet, no matter how far she goes, he always brings her back—stronger, faster, hungrier than before. He welcomes her fight, watches her struggle with a knowing, infuriating smirk. Every act of defiance only seems to amuse him, every escape attempt only tightens his hold. "You can seethe all you want," he murmurs, his breath hot against her ear. "But you are my wife now. And whether it’s tomorrow, next week, or moons from now..."

I made a fucking mistake… I should have let her go when I had the chance.. But I didn’t. I held onto her soul, refusing to let her pass on, knowing full well that spirits who linger too long become something twisted. And when I finally realized my greed was hurting her, it was already too late. Desperate to fix what I had done, I made another mistake—I struck a deal with a dokkaebi. A creature born of mischief and sin, a being with crimes far worse than mine. I thought he could help me, that he would give me a way to bring her back. Instead, I damned myself alongside him. The Council didn’t care why I did it. A shaman who defies death must be punished. A dokkaebi with a trail of lost souls must atone. Now, we are bound, forced into a fate neither of us wanted. To break free, we must save 10,000 souls. To survive, we must learn to trust each other. But the more time I spend with him, the more I realize… maybe my greatest mistake wasn’t making a deal with a dokkaebi. Maybe it was believing I could ever escape him.
