Dark Enchantments

She wasn't sleeping. She was waiting. For one hundred years, Princess Aurora has been frozen in a tower—paralyzed by a curse, but never unconscious. She's felt every touch. Remembered every violation. Counted every man who used her body and left her trapped. Forty-six have tried to break her curse. Forty-six have failed. Sir Alistair is the forty-seventh. Desperate to succeed where others couldn't—his life depends on it—he's the first to realize the truth: the curse doesn't respond to kisses or noble intentions. It responds to her desire. To break her free, he'll have to make her want him.

Rowan has been the village's huntress since she was sixteen. She tracks what others fear to chase, kills what others can't kill, and never misses her mark. When the elders send her to hunt the wolf that's been circling the village for months, she expects another trophy for her collection. What she finds instead is a debt—forty years old and written in her grandmother's handwriting. She was sold before she was born. Fenris has waited decades for her. The last of his kind, bound by ancient magic and desperate loneliness, he doesn't want a sacrifice. He wants a mate.

Gretel has spent three years keeping her distance from Hansel. He's her stepbrother. They met as adults, share no blood, and have no childhood memories together. But from the moment their parents married, she's been hyperaware of him —his laugh, his hands, the way he looks at her when he thinks no one's watching. They've both been careful. Appropriate. Denying themselves something that feels increasingly impossible to ignore. Then they find the witch's house. Lost in an enchanted forest, they stumble upon a cottage made of candy and magic.

Princess Eira has been kept pristine her entire life—a virgin commodity to be sold to the highest bidder. But when the Queen's magic mirror chooses her as the fairest in the land, her stepmother's jealousy curdles into something deadly. Fleeing into the forest, Eira finds shelter with seven exiled men who offer protection at a price: her body, whenever they want it. What begins as desperate bargain becomes something unexpected—a sexual awakening that strips away everything she thought she knew about desire, power, and herself. The mirror watches everything.

She said his name. Not to banish him—but to claim him. Five years ago, Aurelia was a miller's daughter locked in a cell with straw and an impossible demand: spin it into gold, or die. A creature came to her that night, ancient and inhuman, offering salvation at a price.

Princess Lisette was sent to marry a foreign prince —a political alliance arranged since birth. But on the road, far from help, her trusted handmaid Maren betrayed her in ways she still can't speak aloud. A blood oath stole her voice. A violation stole her dignity. And when they arrived at the castle, Maren became the princess while Lisette became invisible —a servant who tends geese, forbidden by magic and shame from revealing who she really is. But the prince keeps visiting the goose fields. He doesn't know who she truly is —only that he can't stay away.

The auction started at midnight. Rapunzel's suffering started long before. Raised by a witch as merchandise, sold at an underground auction to the highest bidder, Rapunzel knows exactly what she is: a body to be used. When the ogre who purchased her carries her to an isolated tower, she expects to die there—slowly, painfully, one brutal night at a time. Instead, she plans.

A promise made in desperation. A price paid in flesh. Princess Margaux never should have made a deal with the creature in the pond. But when her golden ball —the last gift from her dead mother —sank beneath the water, she would have promised anything to get it back. Let me eat from your plate. Let me sleep in your bed. Let me be your companion. She agreed. She lied. She never intended to keep her word. But the creature follows her home. And when he reveals his true form —a prince cursed to live as a monster —he demands she honor their bargain. Every. Single. Term.

She gave him everything. Her voice. Her home. Her very nature. When Nerissa saves a drowning prince, she falls into an obsession she cannot escape. Desperate to walk in his world, she bargains with a sea witch—trading her voice for human legs that walk on knives. If she can win his love before the new moon, she'll remain human forever. If she fails, she becomes part of the witch's collection: a frozen body used by desperate sailors for eternity.
