Dimitri Iannone Fidanzata

Masks and Deceit

Caspian inched closer until his lips were mere inches away from Davina's, reeling her in to close the nonexistent gap between their mouths. "Have you ever been kissed, Dimitri?" He asked. Before Davina could lose control after Caspian's cold lips lightly grazed hers, she pushed him away and hurriedly stood up. "My Lord, this is highly unethical!" Her real voice nearly slipped out amid the chaos. "What's unethical about this?" Caspian's face lifted to form an innocent yet devilish smile, he seemed to be enjoying the reaction he got out of her. Flustered, Davina turned her back to him and took deep breaths before speaking more composedly. "We are both men and it wasn't ethical of you to try and... kiss me." The last bit came out as a whisper blown away by the wind. Caspian's chuckle echoed through the woods as he stood up from the bench and faced Davina with a smug look on his face. "Tell me, Dimitri, was I really trying to kiss a man just now?" "W-what do you mean?" Davina stumbled backward as she stared at Caspian in shock and disbelief, unsure of what to do to save herself from that situation. "Let me rephrase my question." Caspian delicately grazed Davina's cheeks with the back of his hand. "Are you really a man?" ***** With a bounty on her head and the need for a place to stay, Davina snuck into the castle of Lendorr, posing as a man in the royal army. Luckily for her, she was able to get away with her ruse easily that is, until she met the mysterious Lord Caspian. She is tasked with being one of his guards all while trying to avoid getting caught by the man who made it his life's mission to ruin her plan. Through a twisted game of deceit, Davina is forced to make a grave choice between Love and the REAL reason why she snuck into the castle.

Dangerous Attraction

Dual point of view! ······· Isabelle Baudelaire. Noble Princess, the third child and only daughter of Duke Florentin Baudelaire, with the title of Countess. 22 years old. Dimitri Delacroix. Noble Prince, Duke of the Delacroix Duchy, only son of the retired Duchess Genevieve Delacroix that came to be after her one-night stand with Marquis Olivier Carpentier. 26 years old. Two free-spirited people, with lots of bad rumors on their backs. She is the most hated noble Lady in the Kingdom, for being overbearing and straightforward in a Royal society where women are condemned for such. But possessing a secret that could make her get under the spotlight of not only her Kingdom but the world. All of that because she's the writer of the most famous fantasy-romance series of books in the world, under a male alias. While he's the biggest fan of her books, without having the slightest idea of who she actually is. Before her mother died because of an incurable disease when she was a child, her mother, late Duchess Adelaide and Dimitri's mother were best friends from childhood, but after that tragedy, their Houses lost contact. However, they didn't have memories of each other anymore. Until they met again when Duke Baudelaire and the retired Duchess Delacroix contacted each other, and Isabelle's father invited them to spend the winter season in their manor at Desmoulins, the Royal Capital. Little did they know what that would cause... Right from the beginning, Isabelle and Dimitri hated each other. There was no helping them out, they were bound to loathe each other to death. That is... if the dangerous attraction they also felt for one another wasn't stronger than that. ······· IMPORTANT!!! It's a dark historical fictional romance, so be aware that this novel has lots of triggers. Such as cursing, life threats, deaths, torture, manipulation, psychological abuse, and mention of sexual activities. If you are underaged or sensitive to those, I suggest that you think carefully before getting into the story. The novel won't be so long compared to the others I'm still writing.

The Omega Concubine

*This is NOT your typical werewolf story* “This is how the palace works, Miss Maridawn. If you can’t become the King’s favorite, you will be living in isolation for the rest of your life.” “I can prove that I will become his favorite, Dimitri. No, I will become his Empress." “An omega empress,” he muses. “That will make you a history in the making. I’m looking forward to it.” -------------------------------------------------------------- Omegas are now at the brink of extinction and because of their rarity, the Alpha king declared all omegas must become his concubines for the rest of their lives. Maridawn was a proud alpha of an elite wolf pack, the Silverfang family—or so she thought. Her life changed when she experienced her first heat that caused alphas to go wild, thus losing her alpha status in a blink of an eye. Now, as the king's omega concubine, Maridawn has to reach to the top to become the king's favorite or accept her fate to live in the confinements of the palace. Will she be able to get the king's recognition and experience the taste of belonging in the palace? This is a story of a chained omega yearning for freedom in the palace full of mysteries and whether she chooses love for a man whom she can't have or the other who is her fated mate? ===================== Hi there, folks! Glad that you reach the end part of the blurb. Just giving you a heads up, this is an omegaverse story in the guise of a werewolf setting. So even if we have wolves there, they aren't as prominent as the omegaverse system. Don't forget to leave comments, gifts or even power stones! I would be happy to hear my readers' thoughts.
