“Bed,” he said, narrowing his eyes, “NOW.”

“Or what?” I challenged. “What are you gonna do?”

He smiled. “How do you feel about being tied down?”

I drew back then. “Okay, valid point.”

I then stepped over to the bed.

He just shoved me down, making me yelp when I collapsed down.

He dropped to his knees, caught the back of my calves, and pulled me forward, spreading me open for him.

“Whoa!” I said then, struggling as his breath heated me. “Mouth does NOT go there. You can’t do that.”

He just smiled, lowering himself. “Or what?”

*****

I never thought that I would fall for someone like him. I never thought I'd live like this with him. I'd never have fallen with a crime boss like he was.

On my knees, below him, submitting to him... it felt like something I'd never do.

And he... he kidnapped me, he took me and wouldn't let me leave, and when he said I could go...

I stayed.

Something was wrong with me; something was wrong with the fact that I loved what he did to me.

Games, games, games. I loved the games. I loved the pain. I loved the feeling of his skin on mine.

I'd truly fallen for a criminal.

“I love you, Clary.”

No, this isn’t right.

Things were different here.

Things that weren’t supposed to be different.

How could a girl like me be of interest of a guy like... him? How could it be possible?

The girls on the train watch his every movement, the women on the streets holding up their phones when he walks by... he could have every girl he wants, and he chose... me?

There had to be a catch! There had to be.

And there was.

Now I’d been standing here for... ages, holding this dagger in my hand, and staring down at the body lying beneath me.

What have I become?

“Clary,” Jace said.

Oh, he’s calling me. It’s time to go.

Though I don’t know where.

*****

Jace and Clary had overcome many things, living in the same institute, encountering each other in the hallways, and finally kissing under the leaves of the garden.

But who expected that the most wanted criminal... Valentine Morgenstern happened to be Jace’s father? And of course, his son, Sebastian was also Jace’s brother.

No, this isn’t right, is it?

Or maybe it is.

"That's not... oh... oh, Jesus."

How to date a vampire?

I'll tell you!

You'll need to give him hugs, daily, and also... other things.

Oh, and blood. He needs blood.

How do I know?

My boyfriend's a vampire! Or at least I think.

He's very dark and brooding, but... I notice he loves sweet things. Why doesn't everyone else know that?

His blood is his coffee, he loves dumping sugar in it.

It's odd, but I don't judge! I can just get him chocolate.

So how to date a vampire?

Good question, I'm still learning.

Maya Quinn is a nineteen-year-old scholar at her favorite university in Colorado. Although, she also works hard at her desk in a publishing company miles from her school. While cute, kind, and vulnerable, Maya works hard at her desk, and her closed-off coworker, Kai, sits across from her, quiet as hard shadows cross his face. Things took an unexpected turn when Kai expressed his love for her, and she was left staring at him as his lips lay inches from hers, wondering what lay behind those cold eyes.

Vampire or not,

She couldn't resist him if she tried.

“Paris...?” I whispered as I entered the dark room, heart pounding at the menacing silence. “Paris? Are you in here?”

All my ears met were silence, and I was about to exit—to look somewhere else…

But I was shoved against the wall, crying out, though it was muffled by a hand.

“Shhh...” Paris murmured, voice low, “don’t scream.”

What was he doing?

But it only took a moment before I felt his hand slip in between my thighs, and I clenched.

He always knew I liked that. Goddamn it.

“I’m going to take you tonight,” he whispered in my ear, still covering my mouth as warmth pooled in my belly. “I’m going to take you and make you mine, will you let me?”

I nodded numbly, heart pounding.

“Good,” he responded. “Now I’m going to take my hand away, and you’re going to be a good girl and be quiet.”

I nodded.

And he took his hand away from my mouth, little whimpers escaping my lips while he kept stroking me.

He leaned forward, Me closing my eyes while I waited for the kiss, but he only whispered, “Let the games begin. Do you want to see who will win this game?”

I knew he was talking about who would climax first, but I still nodded despite me never doing this before.

“Say it aloud like a good girl.”

I winced as he kept stroking ever-so-gently. “Yes, please.”

*****

Riley Princes was a nineteen-year-old girl; a senior in high school and the graduating class of 2023.

But that’s when it all fell apart.

Years earlier, when Riley was ten, her father had been brutally murdered, which the police named manslaughter by a mugger.

But that was far from what happened.

When Riley turned eighteen, her best friend, Bella Swans was found murdered in an alleyway, and as her senior year passed, she was unhealthily determined to find the killer.

Until he came.

Paris Lucan, the boy she never even acknowledged came into her life, determined to break her habits.

She was going to get herself killed.

But despite Riley struggling to place if he was the killer, there was an even bigger secret he was hiding.

That he was the mafia king of California.

And even when he wanted to save her from the murderer, there was something else they both wanted.

And they weren’t sure how long it could hold back.

For Riley had a new obsession, another unhealthy determination that she couldn’t control.

Paris Lucan.

“I’m sorry, I can’t let you leave, but I need you to trust me. Our lives depend on it.”

Lily Bron was a sophomore in high school in the year 2000, living the average lifestyle of a teen girl. Though as the school year went on, things started becoming strange and unfamiliar, and it wasn’t until the fateful day on which she met the stuck-up Jason Marrow that her whole life fell apart.

It was then, in her most sensitive state, that Jason showed and guided her unwillingly out of her childhood home, and into the world that wasn’t supposed to exist; a world of demons, werewolves, and angels, and Jason turned out to be one of them, along with Lily. When everything was taken from her in such a short amount of time, Lily realized that someone she knew who was long lost in her memories needed her to fulfill his plan of destroying the human race. And she was the key to the dark magic he needed.

When all her childhood memories were fake, she found there was someone who had been searching for her for over six hundred years; someone who was grieving the loss of her and would not stop until she was found.

The same teenage man who vowed to protect her from her fate, Jason Marrow.

“Drip, Drip, Drip,” Mason said in her ear, his touch burning her skin like acid. “So red. So sweet, but yet so bitter.”

She winced when he ran the tip of the blade over the already open cut. “Stop....”

“Now,” he said quietly, though menacingly, “are you going to come willingly? Or will I have to kill everyone in this room and have you watch?”

She opened her eyes, finding the school empty.

But there’s... no one.

Then a voice entered her ears. “Let her go, you bastard.”

Malachi.

NOW THAT YOU’RE HERE,

YOU’RE NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE

“Everywhere you go, I’ll be there. Every place when you think you’re alone, I’ll be in the shadows...

The spark that no one else had ever seen.

I know you, Winter Evans, and I don’t intend to let you go.

Don’t be afraid, Snowflake,

Because you’re mine now.

And there’s nothing you can do about it.”

A heart of ice and a desire for blood... A city of frost and an ocean of red...

What if your dreams came to life... and you were left with nothing except for him?

Stained lips on her frosty skin...

Winter Evans fell in love with a vampire, and now he wouldn’t let her go.

“Love can be dangerous, Ray. And we both know,

YOU CRAVE DANGER.”

Dark… evil… demented…

That’s what Raven Magicae fell for…

The exact definition of monster.

In her nightmares, she’d dream of him standing over piles of dead bodies… eyes so dark they looked black… and he’d be smiling as his victim’s blood trailed from his lips… staining them a bitter red…

When he looked to her for the first time, she knew from the beginning that he wasn’t normal.

His eyes held no mercy.

Not even for her.

And now that Malachi had her life twined between his fingers…

All her nightmares would come true.

But deep inside the monster… was there a light…? Or was his soul completely covered in shadows?

She knew he was her captor… a monster… but she couldn’t control herself…

And she had to remind herself of who he really was…

But who was hereally?

Crap.

I can’t believe he caught me staring again…

He has that smile… The one that dared me to escape him…

I should hate him. He’s a liar, murderer…

I don’t trust him.

Yet some part of me… wants to…

And he knows.

He’s crazy.

Completely insane.

And I don’t know how to rid myself of him… because every time I run… He catches me…

I tried to fight him once, I did... but I lost... He only pressed me to him so I couldn't move.

But that's when I felt his heat... his fire... and every time he touches me, my defenses fall…

And he's well aware of it.

And he'd do it over and over... until I'd let him lead me back.

"How can I trust you?"

"You'll have to learn."

Isabella Magaroth was just a child when her new family arrived, though her tale was quite different than anyone could've ever imagined. Four years after her father's death, Isabella encountered the prince of the lands, Blake, and forced herself to shy away despite him clearly being interested in her health.

In every tale, she had been made a maid, but in this tale, cruel unspeakable things happened in her household, and Blake vowed to his father that he would get her out at the right time; for if it was even a minute later, Isabella would've been murdered.

The moment Ella followed Blake into the forest, she wandered into a new world that—even in the medieval times—was considered unreal; a world of witches and angels, magic and sorcery, and Prince Blake was the center of it all.

For she had fallen for one of the fallen.
