“I want you to be my submissive.” If homicide detective Cassandra Pratt had to describe Havenfield in three words, they would be ‘small,’ ‘inconspicuous,’ and ‘boring.’ But when a series of gruesome murders shatter the town's peace, Cass is thrust into a hunt for a killer with no identity. Stumbling upon a vampire was never part of the plan, but Uriel Serpov has never been one to follow plans. Uriel is infuriating, enigmatic, and undeniably attractive. Worst of all, he knows Cass’s darkest secret—the very one that keeps her isolated from the rest of the town. Behind his sharp smile and smoldering eyes, Uriel harbors secrets of his own, and now Cass’s only hope of solving the serial murders lies through him. The line between duty and desire quickly blurs. Will Cass solve the case? Or will the heat between them consume her? Additionally tags: slow burn, bd//sm, power play

Hell is empty and all the devils are here. Shakespeare – [The Tempest] As a form of punishment for mistakenly killing an innocent civilian, Song Zhuyu, a priest and part-time exorcist, found himself exiled to the distant shores of Shenci Island, hundreds of miles away from his hometown and the only city he had ever known his whole life. However, unbeknownst to anyone, he harbored a secret agenda— to hunt down the culprit who had turned his life upside down. Fully prepared for meeting danger at every turn, what he encountered instead was a beautiful, serene island, albeit with two strange ironclad rules: First, do not climb the hill after 1 AM. Second, do not interact with Rui Ye. On the first night of his stay, Song Zhuyu broke two of the taboos, only to discover that the infamous Rui Ye was nothing like he had expected. “I am cursed,” the blind, beautiful man told him with a wistful smile. “If you associate yourself with me, the curse will haunt you too.” In response, Song Zhuyu’s lips hooked into a careless smile, “I don’t think you have to worry about that. I, myself, am cursed as well. What’s the big deal about adding another one?” But as inexplicable deaths began to plague the island, Song Zhuyu realized that the island, including the helpless and soft-hearted Rui Ye he had come to know, held a far darker secret than he could've ever imagined. In a race against time, he must navigate the treacherous waters of deceit and betrayal to unravel the island’s sinister truth and achieve his goal before it's too late. *** Pretty, flirtatious yet heartless priest gong x blind, mysterious and cursed shou Additional tags: gong/seme/top protagonist, action, mystery, suspense, horror, psychological, thriller, dark elements, angel and demons, slow romance, murder, crime, beautiful protagonist, older love interest, 1 vs 1, dubcon, supernatural creatures, exorcism, tragedy, past plays a big part Find me on: Instagram: delanasiwarka Discord server: bit.ly/delanadiscord

But his help comes at a price. From struggling teachers and disillusioned leaders to everyday people on the brink of collapse, Kaelen whispers into the darkness of their souls, guiding them toward victory—but at the cost of their integrity. Each story in "Dark Threads" explores the fine line between right and wrong, as characters confront corrupt authority figures, societal systems stacked against them, and their own inner demons.

In "Shadows of Authority," Jenna Holbrook, a dedicated teacher, is on the verge of losing everything to a corrupt superintendent. When Kaelen offers her the chance to expose him using morally questionable methods, Jenna is forced to choose between fighting clean and winning dirty. In other tales, a disillusioned investigator, a compromised journalist, and a betrayed business owner all find themselves drawn to Kaelen’s irresistible logic, tempted to cross ethical lines they once swore to uphold. Each must grapple with the price of power and the lengths they’re willing to go to claim it.
