A future on her own terms, a name of her own to make, and absolutely no intention of letting anyone else decide what she wants. Then her family makes a decision for her. An alliance with the Azers. One marriage. And one man she would never have chosen for herself. Aydan Kade Azer. He's arrogant, infuriating, and far too used to getting what he wants. She's stubborn, sharp-tongued, and has never been good at doing what she's told. They don't trust each other. They don't understand each other. And neither is willing to make this marriage anything less than a battlefield. But an alliance is never just about two people. And the closer Anastasia gets to Kade, the more she begins to realise that some things are far more complicated than they seem. They were never supposed to fall for each other. Then again, they were never supposed to choose each other, either.

𝐃𝐲𝐧𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐎𝐟 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐍𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 - 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐎𝐧𝐞 🪷 ───༺𖤓༻─── In ancient Kemet, where gods still shape fate, two powerful souls are destined to collide. 𝐙𝐚𝐡𝐫𝐚, the Pharaoh's radiant and feared daughter, is worshipped as the Gem of Egypt, a woman claimed by the very light of Ra. Beautiful, untouchable, and dangerous to desire, she has never bowed to anyone-mortal or divine. She embodies the strength of a goddess, unknowing of her full potential. 𝐈𝐤𝐚𝐮𝐡𝐨𝐫 is her opposite: a rising Tahtib warrior of brutal, inhuman strength, rumored to carry the shadowed power of Anubis. Born from dust and battle, he is disciplined, deadly, and utterly unafraid of the crown. Coming from a background of dark untold secrets, yet to be unveiled.. When Ikauhor conquers the arena with godlike ferocity, the Pharaoh commands him to take on a forbidden duty: 𝐆𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐙𝐚𝐡𝐫𝐚 Their hatred is immediate. Their attraction is undeniable. Their souls, ancient echoes of sun and shadow, recognize each other before their minds do, bound by a forgotten pact between Ra and Anubis. Zahra sees Ikauhor as a threat to divine order. Ikauhor sees her as a sun-blessed tyrant who could burn the world or him. Yet prophecy whispers of a union strong enough to restore balance or plunge Egypt into chaos. Bound by duty and drawn by fate, Zahra and Ikauhor must face a truth more dangerous than war: their connection is not merely forbidden, it is cosmic, volatile, and powerful enough to shake an empire. ───༺𖤓༻───

Vulnerability has always been a liability... ⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘ ⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘ ⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘ ⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘ At MAKIS, violence isn't a crime. It's the law. Brutality isn't something they learned. It's inherited.

She knows the rules, and exactly what happens when they're broken. She doesn't care. Because breaking rules and breaking people come naturally to her.

Until a failed operation leaves her injured, and she's forced to step away from the only life she's ever known to recover. Ondrea doesn't stay away for long. She returns to the field by stealing a contract, taking the academy's private jet, and killing an unauthorized target without any permission. In a cruel twist of fate... Nikolai Ivanov enters the picture, changing the game entirely with his cynical beliefs.

But Nikolai is hiding a dangerous truth... he is secretly placed inside MAKIS under vengeful, concealed motives.

"The Mob Boss and His Enemy's Daughter" Natalia Gambino was raised to obey. As the daughter of Vito Gambino-the most feared mob boss in the world-every part of her life was his to control. Her clothes. Her hair. Even the man she'd marry. That man was Luca Castellano, her father's most trusted ally and underboss. Every time she looked at him, disgust twisted in her stomach. It was never supposed to be him. He'd only been obsessed with her long before she was old enough to understand it. But obedience had never been a choice-only a rule. Then, at her own wedding reception, a man with blood on his cufflinks and a smile that didn't belong in a church... storms in with guns blazing and a threat that shatters everything she thought she knew. Is this finally her chance to escape the man who's owned her life? ...Or is she just trading one master for another? ---- "Look at you..." he murmured, his breath warm against my neck. My body betrayed me, trembling as his hand traced lower, slow and deliberate. "...never forget who you belong to, Natalia." I swallowed, my voice barely a whisper. "I won't." His grip tightened, his voice dropping into something darker. I hated the way my body reacted to him-like it didn't remember fear. He leaned back, unfazed, a slow smirk pulling at his mouth. "Then prove it." ---- - book 2 of "The Prodigy" series (can be read as a standalone)

What a terrible thing it is to find comfort in the mouth of the wolf. Brash-mouthed and steel-spined, the first thing Calista learns about the Ninth Circle is that everyone is hiding something. Raised far beyond its walls, she arrives with nothing but a bloodline too deep to cut out. A burning bullet in the chamber, Elikai was raised among sealed doors, inherited grudges, and the certainty that some bloodlines are better left buried. Until the dead begin to stir. He watches her move the way a blade watches a throat―patient, faithful, predatorial. If she had half a thought, she would have left him alone. Every instinct she possesses tells her to run. But every answer she needs seems to require moving closer. And for reasons unknown, he lets her. The trouble with wolves, however, is that they rarely arrive looking hungry. By the time they bare their teeth, youʼre already reaching for their heart. ▬▬ ⋆ enemies to lovers ⋆ dark romance ⋆ secret society ⋆ slowburn Extended Description inside. © 2026 asiaalvarez

𝐍𝐄𝐗𝐔𝐌'𝐒 𝐆𝐔𝐈𝐃𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐎𝐓𝐀𝐋 𝐑𝐔𝐈𝐍 𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱 She's the city's top model. Seen by everyone. Known by no one. She survives by keeping her past sealed tight- every bruise, every secret, every ugly truth locked behind elegance and restraint. Her life is a performance, and she never misses a step. Until she slips... ...and falls straight into the orbit of the man she was taught to despise most. One reckless act- done under the guise of a false persona- sets something irreversible in motion. A line is crossed. A fire is sparked. And the illusion of distance between them shatters. That night leaves her with a hangover, and a realization she can't escape. You don't have to die to go to hell. Some men bring it right to you. He is power without conscience. A presence felt more than seen. The devil everyone fears. She is a mess dressed in designer. A voice that refuses to be silenced. The angel everyone envies. Logic says they should never align. That their worlds, their loyalties, and their sins are fundamentally opposed. Nexum says there couldn't be a better fit. 𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱 𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐒𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧 @xplicitlyvenus 2025, all rights reserved
