Summary
Lady Sloane Mairi never entered the Quadrant or bonded a dragon. Instead, she’s spent the last decade exasperating her aristocratic guardians, who expect her to do little besides mind her manners, smile pretty, and marry well. So when a politically-advantageous betrothal is finally secured, Sloane figures an arranged marriage will at least grant her some autonomy. After all, how hard is it to handle a husband?As it turns out, pretty damn hard, because the broad shoulders waiting at the end of the aisle belong to Colonel Dain Aetos, a jaded officer who gave everything to the war effort...and is decidedly Not Amused to find himself bringing home a tempestuous heiress.
Bound by law for the next four months, the couple merely has to endure their handfasting and they are free to part ways. But past wounds want healing, unexpected bonds demand forging, and blistering chemistry promises to set their plans aflame.
****
(Or, the arranged marriage, post-war, grumpy-gremlin AU in which Sloane is the feisty aristocrat who never went to Basgiath and Dain is the decorated war hero who is barely holding it together)

Summary
You are married to Naoya Zenin for what you can provide, not who you are.
Calm, obedient, and observant, you adapt to the expectations placed upon you with unsettling ease. The will that binds you together promises succession and legacy—but nothing about love.
Control defines your marriage. Silence fills most of it.
And yet, in the moments where bodies meet and masks fracture, something dangerous begins to take root—especially in him.
A slow-burn dark romance featuring power imbalance, emotional detachment, and intimacy as the only shared language.
Update schedule: Tuesdays and Fridays.
Some chapters—particularly those that lean into intimacy or psychological tension—may take longer to complete. I appreciate your patience as I give them the attention they require.Bookmarked by Veroque

Summary
Clara, 28, is over the grind. Her old job sucked the joy out of her life—now she wants something simple, satisfying, and maybe a little bit fun. When her best friend Violet suggests Morning Glory Milking Farm, Clara jumps at the chance.
The only problem? Her new job is awakening a lot of long-dormant desires. Cambric Creek is open-minded, the monster men are hot, and Clara’s ready for a little indulgence.
She finds her groove—and more than a few admirers. Soon, she’s the face of a bold new offshoot: Midnight Milking Cabaret, where Clara gets to milk clients her way, under the stage lights, with an audience that can’t take their eyes off her.
But no one watches her like Brogan.
The brooding, old-money minotaur has been obsessed since their first session. Clara’s hunger, her spark, her unapologetic lust—they’re driving him wild. She craves freedom; he promises worship. And when the time is right, he plans to claim what’s his....too bad she despises him, they don't get along, are constantly at odds.
