ARIA

I was traded like I didn’t matter. My father sold me to a monster everyone was afraid of.
But I’m not going down without a fight. I refused to be a victim anymore. Not of my father and not of the man the whole city is afraid of.
So when I walked into the devil’s den, I made him a deal- I’ll work for my freedom. I needed a chance at life.
Kieran Volkov is older. Dangerous. And famous for his murderous ways and unmerciful character. But he looks at me like I’m made of glass and then touches me like he wants to break me. 
He says he doesn’t want me. But his control frays every time someone else even breathes in my direction. 
He gave me what I wanted. A place to stay and a job to earn, but he took my freedom in return. 
Now, he owns me. I am his to protect, punish and keep hidden.
But not in the way I want to be.
He says I’m too young for him and his unrealistic control is the thing I want to murder.
Because I know it’s not my age that scares him. It’s how much he wants me.

But I am as stubborn as him, and the most dangerous thing I’ve ever done… is make a man like him lose control.


KIERAN 

I don’t deal with women and children. I don’t touch the innocent.
And I sure as hell don’t lose control.

But when a drunk man throws his nineteen-year-old daughter at my feet to pay off a debt, something in me shifts.
I send her back. Or at least—I try to. Then she storms into my office. Proud. Angry. Desperate.
And for the first time in years, I make a mistake.

I let her stay.

She says she wants to work off her father’s debt. But she doesn’t know what my world is. She doesn’t understand the rules. And she doesn’t see the way I watch her… the way I shouldn’t. The way she plays with my control and brings out the animalistic side of me to the surface, I had tried so hard to keep under control.

She’s too young. Too untouched. Too off-limits.

And yet I’m breaking every rule I made to keep her safe from men like me.

This is my first book on Webnovel, but not the first time I've bled my soul into words and written a story which will always remain close to my heart like the others. 


I write Dark Romances, Bully Romance, Arranged Marriage, Mafia Romance, Enemies to lovers etc. My stories are the kind that makes your heart clench, that makes you ache, that makes you question what love really means when it comes with chains, scars, and stolen moments.


If you like morally grey men who obsesses over their women, will unlive anyone who touched her, forbidden passion, and heroines who feel real and flawed, soft and fierce, broken yet strong, then you're in the right place.


This story is a forbidden, age-gap, with dangerous world that the Hero belongs to.


He's powerful, controlled, and dangerous in ways everyone is afraid of him. 


 She's too young. Too innocent. Off-limits in every way…


You'll find over the top obsession, lust, devotion, angst… and love that defies reason.


It's messy. It's wrong. It's addictive.


This book contains mature themes (18+), including explicit sexual content, a significant age gap, power imbalance, and emotional intensity.


Please read responsibly and only if you're comfortable with dark, morally ambiguous romances.


If this is your kind of chaos, then welcome aboard and be ready for the rollercoaster ride. 


We're about to dive deep. And then will soar to the skies.


A dark romance author, a swiftie and a fan of everything with love and happy endings! 🎀💓
