Outlawed Desires: Beyond the Chains

Asher Carter has spent his entire life hiding his true self. In Eldermire—a town ruled by the iron grip of the Council of Purity—being different is dangerous, and some kinds of love are a crime that can cost you everything. Orphaned young and raised under the council’s suffocating laws, Asher has learned that survival means keeping his head down. By day, he works as a waiter at The Gilded Spoon, an elite café where the town’s powerful gather. By night, he dreams of a life where he doesn’t have to pretend. Then there’s Malcolm Hayes—the mayor’s son. Wealthy, charming, and engaged to the daughter of a high-ranking council member, he is everything Asher can never have. To the world, Malcolm is the perfect heir to Eldermire’s legacy of purity. But beneath the polished facade, he's living a life that isn't truly his—while being irresistibly drawn to the quiet waiter he just can't stop thinking about. One moment, they were just two men living separate lives. The next, they are fugitives. Hunted by a town that sees their love as an abomination, Asher and Malcolm’s only hope is to escape beyond Eldermire’s borders—to a place where love isn’t punished. But running won’t be easy. In a world where their love is forbidden and betrayal is inevitable, the question isn’t just whether they can escape—but whether their love is strong enough to survive. --- Trigger Warning: This story explores dark and intense themes.

Beyond the Gilded Cage

In the city of Lippershey, where shadows danced like specters and darkness reigned supreme, a fragile soul was about to be consumed by the very evil that lurked within its walls. Madeline, a beautiful and compassionate young girl, was sold into bondage to Lord Damien, a man whose wealth and influence were matched only by his ruthless ambition. As she left behind the only life she had ever known, Madeline's heart was shattered into a million pieces, like delicate glass dropped onto unforgiving stone. The memories of her family, her friends, and her freedom were all that remained, echoes of a life that was slowly fading into oblivion. Lord Damien's estate loomed before her, a monolith of opulence and excess, its grandeur a cruel mockery of the despair that lurked within its walls. As Madeline stepped across its threshold, she felt the weight of her chains settle heavy upon her shoulders, the cold metal a bitter reminder of her newfound status as a slave. But Madeline was not one to be broken easily. A spark of defiance still flickered within her, a flame that burned brighter with every passing moment. She vowed to survive, to endure the unimaginable horrors that lay ahead, and to one day escape the clutches of the monster who now held her captive. Yet, as she gazed into the dark, unfathomable eyes of Lord Damien, Madeline felt an icy dread creep over her. For in those eyes, she saw a glimmer of something far more sinister, something that threatened to consume her very soul. And then, there was Evan Wilhelm, the mafia prince's ruthless rival, who watched from the shadows, his eyes fixed upon Madeline with an unnerving intensity. His presence seemed to whisper a haunting promise: her fate was already sealed, and her future was shrouded in an impenetrable darkness. As the doors to her prison closed behind her, Madeline realized that she was trapped in a living nightmare, with no escape from the horrors that awaited her. And in that moment, she knew that she was doomed to become a pawn in a deadly game of power and deception, where the stakes were her very life.
