Isaac_King_2965
Captain Seraphine has spent her life learning how to survive the sea, but she never expected the ocean to lead her to the truth about her missing father. When her father’s abandoned ship is discovered drifting alone, Seraphine refuses to believe he is dead. Armed with his mysterious blueprints and determined to uncover what happened, she sets sail across the Seven Seas, following a trail that leads toward forbidden waters where sailors fear to go. Then her net catches something no ordinary captain could ever expect—a wounded merman named Rowan. Seraphine should have left him to the sea. Instead, she saves him. Rowan knows the ocean’s secrets, but he cannot tell her everything. His people have their own laws, enemies, and secrets, and Seraphine’s search for her father may uncover something that could put both the human world and the underwater kingdom in danger. As storms rise and ancient powers begin to move, Seraphine finds herself drawn closer to the mysterious merman who may hold the answers she has been searching for. But falling in love with Rowan could cost her far more than her heart. With sirens hunting, forbidden waters waiting, and the truth about her father getting closer, Seraphine must decide how far she is willing to go for the man she loves and the answers she has spent years seeking. **In a world where humans and merfolk were never meant to trust each other, can love survive the curse of the sea—or will uncovering the truth unleash something neither of them can control?

Ashes Under Neon Lights

In the frozen shadows of Moscow’s underworld, power is inherited through blood — and love is a liability. Artyom Sokolov was born rare. A rare Omega in a world ruled by dominance, hierarchy, and ruthless tradition. In Russia’s elite mafia society, rare Omegas are not cherished — they are bargained, controlled, or hidden. To his father, Artyom is not a son but a complication. An inconvenience that threatens political alliances and legacy. When Sergei Sokolov remarries and begins quietly stripping Artyom of his inheritance, it becomes clear: blood does not guarantee loyalty. But one reckless night changes everything. Viktor Volkov — heir to the most powerful and wealthiest mafia empire in the world — is not an Alpha. He is an Emigen. A genetic anomaly above dominance. Rare. Untouchable. Impossible to control. The Volkov empire commands oil fields, private armies, and governments alike. Their name is spoken carefully — if at all. And Viktor, raised to rule with cold precision, has never allowed instinct to outweigh strategy. Until Artyom. What begins as a single night of shared vulnerability ignites something neither of them can ignore — a biological pull that shakes centuries of hierarchy. When Artyom’s father is attacked and rival factions move to ignite a mafia war, one truth becomes dangerously clear: The fastest way to break an Emigen… is to target the rare Omega he cannot walk away from. Dragged into the heart of the Volkov empire, Artyom must navigate political betrayal, power struggles, and the terrifying realization that he is no longer unwanted — he is valuable. Desired. Claimed. As enemies close in and loyalty fractures from within, Viktor is forced to choose between control and instinct. Between empire and bond. Because in a world where dominance defines worth, loving a rare Omega is both a weakness… and the beginning of a dynasty.
