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.

Beauty became a Sin. Desire became their weapon. Survival turned into rebellion. Lila was born into a world that penalized beauty, particularly among girls such as herself. In a house that disguised abuse as discipline, with a door locked when she had no say, Lila early on learned the cost of being beautiful. A cost paid in broken pieces, marks, and silence. But men were not just looking for her beauty. It was that which obsessed them. What made them destroy? What made them claim? When Viktor—a Russian crime lord whose past is drenched in blood—is around her, he doesn’t desire her for the same reasons that other men do. He wants control over her agony. He wants to remake it. To make her his. Love never flourishes in confinement. And Lila did not get this far in being someone's pretty thing. When lust becomes knotted with fury, and obsession with vulnerability, Lila finds a dark power inside herself: the power of seduction, manipulation, hunting. But the further she goes, the more she questions? Is beauty her curse? Or her deadliest weapon? And if love is another prison… can she burn it down before it consumes everything!

Ex: I started the shower and then looked to her and ordered her “Take off your clothes.” She almost snapped her neck with how quickly she turned her head to face me. “Excuse me?” “You heard me, Take. Off. Your. Clothes. Princess.” She looked at me dumbfounded, she couldn’t believe I was asking her to do this. The sheer audacity of me. She’s rich. Ha. “No, absolutely not.” She narrowed her eyes at me and lifted her lip a little, showing part of her fang. It was a warning glare. “I’m not a patient man. Strip or I will strip you of your clothes.” As I spoke those words, a sense of thrill shot through me. He’s seen plenty of women naked. But his enemy’s daughter. Stripping her of her dignity, forcing her to humiliate herself. My wolf purred inside. “I will not.” Odette stood firm in her stance. “I will only tolerate so much disobedience.” I growled at her, I moved quickly, closing the distance between us in an instance. I grabbed her sleeve and tore it off her. She jerked back covering her arm with her hand. I moved closer to her. Ripping off another shred of her dress. She screamed “Stop it. Don’t touch me. Dog.” She napped. I snarled “Call me a dog one more time princess and see how I punish you.” “D.O.G. DOG” She said firm and slow. That was the last straw for me. I shoved her into the bathroom mirror, cracking the glass. Odette winced and moaned from the pain. But refused to break. I grabbed the front of her dress and ripped it off her body. Exposing her soft, flawless, milky white flesh. She scrambled trying to cover herself and limit the exposure of her undergarments. But there weren’t enough hands to cover her curves. “You’re a bastard.” Odette bit out at him. “I’m not actually, I am the Alpha King, the strongest and most powerful Alpha there’s ever been.” I was getting tired of the disrespect. “Keep feeding that ego of yours, maybe one day it’ll be a reality.” She hissed back. I grabbed her by the throat and lifted her off the ground. She thrashed and squirmed in my grip. But I held firm. Getting in close I whisper in her ear “Watch your little whore mouth. Before I shove something in it to keep it busy.” She shuddered. With one hand holding her, I used my free hand to rip the bra off her chest. Exposing her breasts.
