Dominic St. Claire never expected to fall in love. Melody Harrington never expected a chance encounter at a bar to change her life. But in a town haunted by fear and secrets, some people are not who they seem - and some shades of red mean more than love.

An original, consuming slow-burn romantic series following Elara Leviathan's compelling inner dialogue. Love is not the center of this universe, but it is what brought Elara back to life. 'Sins Bleed Indigo' is not just a tale of love but an epic fantasy of family, union, and the heartbreaks of war. In a world where gods speak with their creation and realms bleed into one another, Elara is born with a soul too luminous for the shadows-and too fractured for the light. She is a healer of quiet strength-she's controlled by her mortal emotions while haunted with a realm torn by secrets, soul cycles, and ancient power. When immortal Orion, cruelly beautiful, and bound to the Underdark itself-rips Elara from her life, he claims it is destiny. He calls it love. But what he gives her is not salvation-it's a curse. Torn from everything she knows, Elara is thrust into a war of realms where truth is a weapon, and affection is a game the gods have mastered. As Orion pulls her deeper into his orbit, Elara begins to unravel the terrifying purpose behind her making... and the role she was never meant to play. But love, even divine, cannot bend a soul that longs to be free. Will Elara choose a different path? Will the demi-god who swore he would never kneel be left reaching for a mortal heart that no longer beats for him? A haunting fantasy of betrayal, rebirth, and the agony of love that may or may not last. -Disclaimer- I own all characters in the plot, do not copy without permission.

His hand shifts under my sweater cuff, sliding up to my forearm. ''Tell me you don't feel it.'' I brush my fingers over his collarbones, just above the worn edge of his shirt. Beneath it, I feel the faint shift of muscle, the stutter in his breathing. He kisses me hot and hard. Like a collapse, His hands slide under my clothes to my neck and my hair where they make fists. My scalp prickles. He lets me taste a future with him, to feel it in the thrust of his tongue and bite of his teeth. I'm panting, and aching, and still, we know this won't change anything. Still, he kisses me bruised. 𝙝𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠𝙨 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙨𝙪𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙨𝙝𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠𝙨 𝙨𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙚𝙨𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙚𝙨 𝙞𝙩 BOOK ONE C O N T A I N S : ❤︎ sexual/mature content ❤︎ violence/abuse/trauma ❤︎ flawed characters (and development) Copyright © 2018-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).

Here she is. I can see the slope of her spine through that thin shirt. She's made of angles I ache to smooth with a hand, but I'd use my lips if she asked. I brush her knuckles with mine. Her skin is cold, but she flips her palm for more contact. I lace our fingers. It's enough to make her look at me. As those kaleidoscopic eyes meet mine, I hold my breath. Then she sets her lips just under my jaw. It rips the air from my lungs. It's the softest thing I've ever felt. "What was that for," I breathe. She pulls back, lashes damp, and whispers, "You're the kind of person that should be kissed." 𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 BOOK TWO C O N T A I N S : ❤︎ mature content ❤︎ romance & friendship ❤︎ yearning Copyright © 2021-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).
