[𝗥𝗘𝗜𝗚𝗡: 𝗕𝗢𝗢𝗞 𝗢𝗡𝗘] There's only one word to describe Silas Westbrook. Cruel. He's wanted me dead for years, ever since the day we met on the roof. Thankfully I survived the attempt on my life that day, now years later I'm alive and being shipped away by my mother and her husband to the no private academy he attends. Silas made a promise that he'll be the reason I drop out. One thing about Westbrooks? They don't make mindless threats. They make promises.

"You're going to let me fuck you like a good girl?" he asks and leans down, "Because you are, aren't you? A good girl?" . . . Elena Amoretto has always been smitten by the one and only, Ares Aetos. For three years, she's adored him from afar. Admiring the god of war and falling deeper into her obsession. While Ares can't seem to stand her. Where she's infatuated with him, he merely acknowledges her existence. While being the center of the spotlight herself. As the front woman of the rising band Icarus, Elena has to face the world while struggling with anxiety. To make matters worse, Ares is the drummer of the band rivaling hers, Dopamine. And just as fate would have it, his band and hers are touring together. She's supposed to hate him. But how could she? When all she does is drown in the blue of his eyes and willingly dies at the ruthless hands of Ares? The god of war who brings her down on her knees while she blissfully falls into his melancholy.

Running from hell isnʼt easy. Especially when someoneʼs dragging you back down into it. Belligerent, brash and always in shades of black, Freya is hardly a lady.

Freya hates his crudity and possessiveness, but she canʼt deny the way her breath hitches at his rough touch, the deep timbre of his voice, and his dark, heated gaze. Torren hates her disobedience, her recklessness, and her chaos. To him, sheʼs only something to be tamed. And after he slips a ring on her hand, snatching away her future, she makes only one vow---to become his biggest torment.

He brings me closer to his face and I freeze when his thumb slides down the side of my neck. It startles me, causing my heart to thrash restlessly against my ribcage. "Consider yourself hired." Head tilted, he looks at me closely. "You just signed your life away to me. I hope it was worth it." •••

She's been one of us. But when on New Year's Eve, she brings along a stranger. A stranger she's been preaching to us, for years. I finally get to meet her. Zara Lincoln. Penelope's dear baby sister. Off-limits. Like a moth to a flame, I crave her honey rose and vanilla scent. That Stygian black hair flowing behind her, those feminine curves, big-ass thighs. So fragile, breakable and shackled by the cuffs of her protective family. Too bad, they introduced the precious princess to the big bad wolf. Poor Zara. THE RELUCTANT MUSE - 𝗭𝗔𝗥𝗔 --- I've always been insecure of myself, for years. Being the youngest in the family, protected by everyone and having a wall of people surrounding me. Recently lost weight and still carry all my curves, so when I was invited to my sister's friend's New Year party - I was sweating. There I met him, the dark and brooding presence. Val Lawrence. I wish I would've declined and sat at home binging on Netflix that night. He's always so towering and huge. He's built like a building, which adds to the menacing persona. Always watched me, rarely talked and his heated eyes set me up on fire. They all warned me to stay away, but what could I do? None of them saw anything. He made sure I was the only witness to his wrath and cruelty. Only me. ---- More chapters coming soon. This story is a work of pure fiction and no copyright claims.

The Wildest Mikaelson... The Happy Homicidal Maniac... The Willy Fox... The Worst of the Worst... All names used to describe the youngest Mikaelson brother. Throughout his long life, Kol fancied himself the black sheep of the family, believing that his siblings considered him more of a nuisance than a brother. When Kol woke up after being daggered a century, he couldn't wait to leave Mystic Falls and his siblings behind. What Kol hadn't expected was to find an annoying young woman living in his older brother's house; even less did he expect said woman to possess a magic so fascinating that he simply couldn't leave until he'd found out what hid behind those innocent blue eyes.
