A world hidden from ordinary eyes, where darkness masks desire and revenge lurks behind every shadow. An arrogant, dominant vampire with secrets beyond imagination crosses paths with an unsuspecting mortal whose unique occupation draws her into his deadly orbit. Suspense, mystery, and forbidden attraction ignite as hidden identities collide, and a thirst for revenge threatens to consume them both.

Chapter 1 The Stranger in the Night

The night had a way of swallowing the city whole, turning streets into veins of shadow and secrets. I walked quickly, heels clicking against cobblestone as the wind whipped around me, carrying whispers I couldn't quite understand.

I had always been drawn to the unusual in my line of work. My occupation ,a midnight archivist for rare occult texts wasn't normal, but it had its perks. Among them: rare discoveries, strange visitors, and occasionally, a brush with the supernatural.

But tonight felt different.

A presence lingered behind me, subtle at first, almost polite. And then, unmistakable ,a shadow that moved with intent, deliberate and silent.

I turned.

And froze.

He was there. Leaning casually against the corner of the alleyway, yet every inch of him radiated control. Dominant. Arrogant. Terrifyingly... attractive.

His eyes, dark as the void, fixed on me with a knowing hunger. Not just curiosity, but something deeper, something older.

"You shouldn't be out here alone," he said, his voice smooth, low, with a musical danger that vibrated in my chest.

"I'm not afraid," I replied, forcing confidence I didn't feel.

A slow, predatory smile curved his lips. "No... I can tell. But that doesn't mean danger won't find you."

Something in the air shifted. I couldn't place it ,fear? Desire? The thrill of knowing he was no ordinary man?

"You... aren't human," I said before I could stop myself.

He chuckled softly, a sound that made my skin prickle and my heart race. "You're observant. But careful. Some truths are better left undiscovered."

And yet, I couldn't step back. Something magnetic pulled me forward, closer to the edge of the alley, closer to him, closer to... the unknown.

That night, I realized life as I knew it was ending. And the darkness waiting to consume me was far more alive than I had ever imagined.

Trigger/Content Warning: This story contains mature themes and explicit content intended for adult audiences(18+). Reader discretion is advised.

It is intense, raw and messy, and explores the darker side of desire. ***** "Take off your dress, Meadow." "Why?" "Because your ex is watching," he said, leaning back into his seat. "And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.
