She thought she had finally escaped the shadows of her family’s dark legacy, but all that changes when Luca Vitale steps into her life. His arrival is anything but accidental. Luca, enigmatic and magnetic, is tied to a world that Sophia desperately wants to forget—a world of power, betrayal, and bloodshed that her family rules from the shadows.

Entwined by Dusk

"You were mine the moment you tried to understand me, Dimitri-every thought, every breath, bound to me. And no matter how hard you fight it; you'll always crave the darkness I pulled you into." The world watched in collective disbelief as the notorious serial killer, Thanatos, walked into a police station one cool September morning and surrendered. The infamous murderer, whose body count had surpassed a hundred, had brought nations to their knees with fear, causing parents to hold their children closer and cities to lock their doors at night. His sudden surrender was met with a mixture of shock and relief. Finally, the nightmare was over-or so the world thought. But the man known as Thanatos, Kian Orlov, did not speak a word following his arrest. His silence was deafening, leaving investigators grasping at straws and the media scrambling for answers. With no confession and no clues, the case threatened to crumble, a shadow of its former terror lingering just beneath the surface. The authorities were desperate, knowing that without answers, the fear could easily return. In a last-ditch effort to crack the case, they called upon the world's most renowned criminal psychologist, Dimitri Romano. Known for his ability to delve into the darkest minds and emerge with the truth, Dimitri had faced monsters of all kinds-but never had he encountered a case like this, nor a man like Kian. A criminal and a psychologist. A love story full of possession and power, pain and anguish, infatuation and passion. The borderline between reality and fantasy, between good and evil. What is their love if not forbidden? In the shadows of obsession and sin, their bond is as dangerous as it is inescapable.

LUNAS DE ACERO

Bajo el cielo triple de Eclípsion, donde las lunas Zorya, Nocturne y Umbría vigilan como diosas caprichosas, la guerra no se libra en campos de batalla, sino en los Coliseos de Sangre. Aquí, los guerreros Marcados—seres con runas que conceden poderes divinos—luchan no por gloria personal, sino por el destino de naciones enteras. Pero tras los combates, un secreto putrefacto se esconde: las runas son cadenas, los coliseos son jaulas... y los dragones que custodian las arenas no son guardianes, sino carceleros. Ryn, un joven Marcado con una runa indescifrable y sueños de dragones que le susurran verdades ajenas, solo quiere sobrevivir. Pero cuando desata sin control su Furia Lunar—un poder que drena la luz de las lunas para convertirlo en un demonio veloz—, atrae la atención de Malakar, un nigromante que esgrima una guadaña tallada con huesos de dragón. Malakar no busca gobernar Eclípsion: quiere destruir las tres lunas y liberar al Dios Devorador, una entidad que promete "purificar" el mundo... a costa de toda vida. Junto a Lira (una estratega fugitiva con sangre de autócrata), Torin (un gigante que carga un martillo y un pasado oscuro) y Veyra (una invocadora obsesionada con vengar a su hermano devorado por dragones), Ryn descubrirá que su runa es la llave de una profecía olvidada: el último Marcado capaz de domar dragones. Mientras Malakar resurge guerreros muertos como Espectros de Ébano y las Casas Autócratas tejen tramas milenarias, el grupo deberá descifrar mentiras ancestrales: - ¿Por qué los dragones atacan solo a los desertores? - ¿Fue Kaelion, el legendario fugitivo, un héroe... o un traidor? - ¿Y por qué la runa de Ryn arde con el mismo brillo que los ojos de Ignavus, el dragón cicatrizado que los sigue como un espectro? En arenas donde la arena se mezcla con sangre antigua, Lunas de Acero es una carrera contra el eclipse que amenaza con engullir a Eclípsion. Entre combates frenéticos donde los poderes lunares chocan contra la necromancia, alianzas traicioneras y dragones cuyos rugidos resuenan como maldiciones, Ryn y sus amigos lucharán no solo por la libertad, sino por reescribir las reglas de un juego que lleva milenios manipulando a la humanidad. ¿Podrá un Marcado sin destino romper las cadenas de un mundo donde hasta las lunas son mentiras? El primer paso es sobrevivir... pero el último será volar. ¿Qué encontrarás aquí? - Batallas épicas con poderes basados en las fases lunares. - Dragones que son tan enigmáticos como letales. - Misterios que se desentrañan entre golpes y diálogos ágiles. - Amistad y traición, donde cada aliado guarda un secreto que podría cambiar el rumbo de la guerra. - Un villano que no busca el poder, sino el fin de todo lo que ama. Lunas de Acero es una oda a los perdedores que se atreven a alzar la vista... ¡y a morder la mano de los dioses que los esclavizan!

His to Break, His to Keep

My hands trembled, my pulse a frantic drumbeat against my ribs as Liam Romano slid the ring onto my finger. White gold. Flawless diamonds. Cold and unfeeling—just like the man who now owned me. For most, a wedding ring symbolized love, devotion, a future built on choice. For me, it was a prison. A silent contract that stripped away my name, my freedom, my very identity. Emily Carter no longer existed. I was Emily Romano now. A pawn in a game played by ruthless men. A caged bird with no escape. I should have run when I had the chance. Now, as the most powerful figures of the New York and Chicago Famiglias watched in chilling silence, escape was nothing more than a distant dream. There were no second chances. No mercy. In our world, a marriage didn’t end unless a body hit the ground—and I knew whose body that would be if I dared to run. This wasn’t love. This was war. A treaty forged in blood. A fragile truce between two criminal empires standing at the edge of destruction. The Bratva were circling like vultures, waiting for a weakness, a reason to strike. And I? I was the peace offering, the price my father had paid to keep our family standing. I should be thankful. That’s what they told me. That’s what my father drilled into my head, over and over again. But gratitude didn’t make the chains any lighter. "You may kiss the bride." The priest’s voice shattered the silence. I forced myself to lift my gaze. Liam’s dark, calculating eyes met mine, void of warmth, void of hesitation. His face, cold and unreadable, gave away nothing. He was a man who had never known fear. A man who didn’t bend, didn’t break. And now, I belonged to him. The world watched, waiting for a sign of weakness. A crack in my mask. I wouldn’t give them one. But Liam? Liam saw through it all. His fingers tightened around mine—a warning, a promise. Then he moved. His lips crashed against mine, not soft, not tender—a kiss of possession. Of dominance. A silent vow that sealed my fate. My body stiffened under his touch, but I didn’t pull away. Because I knew what he was telling me without saying a word. You are mine. And in that moment, I realized something terrifying. I was his to keep. And his to break.

The Queen of the Reluctant Mafia

“Tsk, Spener… you thought I came all the way here to grant your wish?” I asked my voice husky and cold. His eyes flashed with fear and I could sense dread in his eyes as he shook his head in terror. “Please…. one more chance” he sobbed as the tears rolled down his eyes and I burst into laughter. Of course, I could be a little bit of a psychopath when the sun goes down. Las Vegas is a city that never sleeps, much like Leonardo "Leo" DeLuca, heir to one of the most powerful mafia families in the country. Cold-hearted and ruthless, Leo is a man feared by many and trusted by few. His only focus is maintaining his empire—until his father, Don Vito, presents him with an ultimatum: marry within a year or lose everything to his illegitimate half-brother, Marco.   Enter Isla Romano, Leo’s new assistant. Strong-willed, intelligent, and desperate to escape her financial burdens, Isla becomes the perfect candidate for his proposal—a marriage in name only. She agrees, believing she can handle a man like Leo. But as they navigate their dangerous arrangement, she begins to see the cracks in his armor.   As Leo lets Isla in, his past resurfaces—old enemies, long-buried secrets, and a woman from his past, Sophia LaRosa, who refuses to let go. Marco, fueled by hatred, seizes the opportunity to strike, aligning himself with dangerous rivals to overthrow Leo.   When betrayals come from the people closest to them, Leo and Isla must fight for survival—not just for their empire, but for each other.   But in a world where love is a weakness and power is everything, can they defy the odds? Or will the ghosts of the past destroy them both?

BROKEN ROSES

Those who crossed him were dealt with swiftly and severely, never to be seen again.
