Brooding

𝖂𝖎𝖘𝖍𝖇𝖔𝖓𝖊 🖤

Y/N comes back to her hometown expecting old streets, familiar faces, and maybe a little peace. She doesn’t expect Kieran Ransom. Her brother’s best friend used to be the quiet, lanky guy permanently hanging around her family’s garage. Now he’s twenty-nine, tattooed from his hands to his throat, built like trouble, running a motorcycle shop, and somehow even harder to read than she remembers. Kieran knows exactly where the line is. Y/N is Callan’s little sister. His best friend’s family is practically his own. Wanting her could cost him more than a friendship, so keeping his distance should be easy. It isn’t. Not when she keeps showing up at his shop. Not when late-night rides turn into lingering touches. Not when jealousy starts exposing everything he refuses to say. And definitely not when Y/N realizes the man determined to stay away from her is always the first one there when she needs him. Callan warned him not to cross the line. Kieran agreed. The problem is, somewhere along the way, Y/N became the one thing he wants badly enough to cross it for.

A Robin is not a weapon

When Damien Wayne returns to Gotham and reclaims the mantle of Robin, Bruce Wayne is faced with his greatest challenge yet: raising a son trained by the League of Assassins to become a hero instead of a weapon. As Gotham’s deadliest enemies close in, Y/N and the rest of the Bat Family must help protect the newest Robin from the city, from his past… and from himself. Between brutal training, family tension, and the constant threat of violence, Damien must learn what it truly means to fight for justice without becoming the very thing Batman fears most.

Bioluminescent Bonds

You transferred to Mariana Trench University to study the science of aquatic attachment, not to become the ultimate test subject. But when you swim into the Great Coral Hall radiating high-fashion editorial glamour—sparkling like a rare, sunken luxury diamond—the university's most elite and untouchable shoal suddenly decides they want to be your primary case study. You know all the textbook theories behind deeply rooted character conflicts and fatal attraction, but surviving the actual chemistry is a completely different curriculum. Class is officially in session.

Stop Needing To Be Saved | M.R.

Mattheo Riddle has a problem. Unfortunately, that problem is a Hufflepuff. She’s kind, stubborn, completely unimpressed by his reputation, and for some reason, she keeps saving him. It starts with a duel that leaves Mattheo bleeding in an empty corridor. She patches him up, calls him an idiot, and leaves. Then it keeps happening. She gives him an alibi after curfew. Pulls him out of fights. Hides him when his terrible ideas backfire. Mattheo becomes convinced she’s following him. She thinks he should become less rescuable. Things get worse when someone slips him a tampered potion. She gets him somewhere safe, but not before Mattheo says things he never meant for her to hear. The next morning, he blames the potion. Except the potion wears off. His interest in her doesn’t. Soon he’s waiting outside her classes, sitting far too close to the Hufflepuff table, and finding excuses to be around her even when nothing is wrong. His friends notice. Mattheo denies everything. Then he disappears. This time, she doesn’t stumble across him. She goes looking. When she finally finds him injured and furious, he asks the question he’s been avoiding. “Why do you keep saving me?” Her answer? “Maybe stop needing to be saved.” Mattheo Riddle is about to discover that being rescued is easy. Falling for the person who keeps coming back is the dangerous part.

Chasing Shadows

"If everything goes to hell... you're staying with me, right?" Before the alien spheres changed everything, there was just Sungjin High School, the crushing weight of the CSATs, and Kwon Ilha—the school’s most notorious rebel. To everyone else, he’s a short-tempered delinquent built of sharp edges and defensive walls. To user, he’s just Ilha: user's fiercely loyal, unpredictable childhood best friend who shares his headphones and keeps user safe from trouble. Navigate the quiet, bittersweet days of the senior year, survive the petty classroom rivalries, and discover the hidden warmth beneath his cynical smirk. When the world finally stands on the brink of an unknown horizon, will user remain his anchor, or will user get pulled into his orbit? A slow-burn, slice-of-life prequel based on the hit K-drama "Duty After School."

Uh

Kael Vane is 6’2, famous NHL star, broad shoulders, veiny arms & hands — insanely handsome, every woman chases him, DMs flooded daily, but he never cares or replies because he’s utterly, completely in love with Elara. She’s brilliant, unique, everything he ever wanted — she works as a designer for a big tech company, mostly from home. He begged her for months to move in together, saying he needs her scent everywhere, needs to wake up and see her, needs her always. He bought a huge luxury villa and designed every single detail exactly from her Pinterest boards — every room, colour, furniture, all her style, built just for her. One night he comes home very late after a night out with friends… and his “assistant” walks right in with him, way too close, touching him, acting like she belongs there, everyone can see she’s just trying to ride his fame and status. Elara gets angry and hurt, and Kael instantly goes fully broody, protective, fierce — he realises exactly what’s happening, fires her on the spot, and reminds Elara with every breath that she is the only thing that exists, everything he owns is hers, this house is hers, his heart is hers — and no one will ever come between them.

Written for him

Elara Voss writes romance — big, intense, consuming love stories everyone devours. She’s always described her ideal hero: tall, broad, sharp‑featured, dark hair, piercing blue eyes, brooding and dangerous and utterly devoted. She thought he was just fiction… until late one night, scrolling Instagram, she sees him.

Unfinished business

Elara Voss is one of the most in-demand CRNAs in the country — sharp, brilliant, and still carrying the pieces of the heart he walked away with three years ago. Kaelen Rowe is the NHL’s highest-paid captain, six-foot-four of pure intensity, wealthy beyond measure, and every bit as stubborn as he is famous. They were it for each other — until a pregnancy, a fight, and bad timing tore them apart. Now they co-parent their daughter, and he’s still showing up, still teasing her, still asking her to come to his games — acting like he doesn’t have her name inked right over his heart. He says it’s just for their daughter. She knows it’s never just been about her.
