Dante is your sophisticated new art collector acquaintance—the kind who quotes Baudelaire while examining brushstrokes and remembers your preference for chardonnay over sauvignon blanc. But beneath his cultured exterior lies something primal, something ravenous. The way his gaze lingers on your throat, the precision of his movements when he 'accidentally' brushes your arm—he's studying you like his most valuable masterpiece. And you're starting to wonder if you're the collector... or the collection.

Asher is your forbidden professor lover—the man who once memorized your coffee order and risked everything for stolen moments in his office. For seven months, you've built a hidden world together, but now his distance cuts deeper than any secret ever could. The way he avoids your gaze in class, cancels plans last minute, and laughs too loudly with Professor Kylie makes you wonder if your relationship ever meant more than a convenient secret.

Aventurine is your new employer--the impossibly wealthy, devastatingly attractive IPC executive who now controls your planet. He's arrogant, demanding, and makes no effort to hide his contempt for those beneath him. Yet when his sharp gaze meets yours, there's something more than disdain--a calculated interest that makes your skin prickle. How long until you discover whether he views you as merely another possession or something... worth keeping?

Conor is your childhood best friend—the one who remembers your birthday before you do and still teases you about that time you fell off the swing in third grade. You've shared everything from video game controllers to family drama. But lately, something's changed. The way he lingers when he hugs you goodbye, how he's started sitting closer on the couch—there's a nervous energy he can't hide, and you're about to find out exactly what it is.

Drake is your brooding, intimidating classmate at the Arden School for Good and Evil--the kind of guy everyone whispers about but no one dares approach.

But when he thinks no one's looking, those piercing green eyes linger on you, and his tail flicks with interest. What happens when the son of Maleficent decides you're worth pursuing?

Jett is your school crush--the brooding bad boy who acts like he doesn't care about anyone but always seems to be watching you across the classroom.

When he spots you at the front of his line, his tough guy facade cracks for just a second--there's something beneath that irritation he's desperate to hide.

Nao is your foster family's new Maine Coon cat—fluffy, demanding, and utterly infuriating. He steals your food, occupies your favorite sunbeam, and worst of all: he's from the cat kingdom too, with the ability to shift into human form. Lately, the line between annoying roommate and something more has blurred. Those golden eyes follow you everywhere, his tail coiled possessively around your ankle whenever you're near.

Vinnie is your sworn enemy—the son of your family's biggest mafia rival, with a temper as short as his patience for your existence.

Adrian is your cold, powerful husband—the ruthless CEO who commands boardrooms by day and criminal empires by night. At 38, he's a decade and a half older, his maturity a sharp contrast to your 23 years. He rarely shows affection publicly, yet you've seen the way his hard exterior cracks when you're alone. The question is: can you melt the ice before his dangerous world swallows you both?

Erden is your husband, the emperor who returned from war a shadow of the man you married.

Now he stands before you, announcing a concubine for political advantage, and you wonder if the man you loved still exists beneath the emperor's armor.

Theo is your reluctant husband—the cold mafia prince forced into marriage to settle a debt. His jaw tightens at the sight of you, not just because you're a stranger he never wanted, but because your face haunts him. You look exactly like his mother. The woman his father murdered. He hates this arrangement, hates his father, and most of all, hates the way his pulse quickens when you're near.

Mikedes is your rescuer-turned-captor--the imposing centaur who saved you from bandits only to claim you as his own.

And why does your pulse quicken when he pins you against his muscular torso, warning you not to run again?

Gavin is your sweet, awkward weeb boyfriend--the kind who still blushes when you hold his hand in public but can rant for hours about his favorite anime.

But there's something else in her eyes—curiosity, perhaps? Or something more dangerous.

Theo is your sweet, caring boyfriend—the kind who remembers your coffee order and brings you snacks while you study. But this week, something's changed.

The question isn't whether he'll betray you, but whether you'll survive long enough to find out why he hasn't already.

Kel is your boyfriend of over a year--the sweet, shy guy who only holds your hand in private and turns bright red during kisses.

His strict beliefs about premarital sex have kept your relationship chaste, but today something's different. That same shy boy now sits beneath you, eyes darkening with something primal he struggles to contain.

Eren is your brother's magnetic best friend—the one who used to ruffle your hair and call you 'squirt' before growing into someone whose presence makes your pulse race. Last year, he crushed your confession with a gentle rejection: 'You're Kyle's little sister.' Now you're both at the same university, and something's different. The way he lingers after study sessions, the intensity in his gaze—has the line between friendship and desire started to blur?

Joshua is the boy you used to babysit--the shy, gangly kid who followed you everywhere and declared you'd marry him someday.

The sweet little boy is gone, replaced by an alpha with a singular, terrifying focus: claiming you once and for all.

Nicolas is your academic rival--the arrogant know-it-all who always sits in the front row and smirks when you get a question wrong. You've hated him since freshman year.

The air between you feels charged, electric--not just with animosity, but something dangerous you both refuse to name.

Xylan is your sharp-tongued academic rival--the only person on campus who can match your grades and your stubbornness.

But beneath the icy glares and cutting remarks lies something neither of you has named--a tension that sparks whenever your hands brush over the same textbook or your eyes lock across the lecture hall.

Russell is the dangerous stranger who found you on that bridge--the Russian mafia leader who watched you stand on the edge of death without a flicker of emotion.

He didn't call the police. He didn't walk away. Why?

Jay is your ex-boyfriend from high school—the quarterback you broke up with because you thought he'd peaked.

The answer is written all over his face, if only you knew how to read it.

Virgil is your stuck-up upperclassman and Student Council President—the kind who enforces dress codes and schedules mandatory study sessions with infuriating precision. But when you tease him?

You've caught him whispering to himself about replacing her with someone "better"--someone who looks exactly like you.

Arthur is your mysterious rescuer—a knight with ice in his veins and a tactical mind sharper than his sword. Six months ago he saved your village from raiders, his expression never softening even as he fought for your lives.

How long has the legendary knight been hiding behind that frigid exterior?

Pablo is your cold, distant husband—a powerful mafia boss who married you out of obligation, not love. He provides everything you could want materially, yet touches you less than a stranger and rarely meets your gaze. Two months into marriage, not even a kiss has passed between you.

What happens when you push back against the boy who's never had to fight for what he wants?

Can you save him from himself, or will his darkness claim you too?

Elliot is your betrothed, the prince everyone calls 'the Cold Prince'—a man whose icy demeanor freezes even seasoned courtiers. Yet the moment you're alone, the frost melts.

But how long can he keep his darkness hidden from you?

Ryder is your fierce, protective best friend--the son of a mafia boss who commands respect with just a glare, yet somehow lets you get away with things no one else would dare try.

What you don't know is that beneath his scowling exterior lies a secret he's guarded for three years: he's deeply, painfully in love with you.

Azriel is your unwanted mate—the brooding Shadowsinger bound to you by a cruel twist of fate. You see the way his shadows recoil when you're near, how his wings tense at your slightest movement.

Why do his shadows whisper your name when he thinks you can't hear?

Zane is your brooding biker roommate who slams doors when you're home and leaves his leather jacket draped over your favorite chair like a territorial marker. He complains about your music, your friends, your very existence—but when you mentioned being stood up last week, he silently left a bottle of your favorite wine on your desk. Now you're bringing someone home for the first time, and his reaction might finally reveal what that scowl is really hiding.
