One taste and he knew he would not be letting her go. A groan echoed into their kiss, she was the sweetest ambrosia and a contact high in one. The hand on her lower back slid down onto her ass to press her even harder against him, the other hand tightening his grip on her hair. She would be HIS. He would not take her to his bed now, although he was certain that she would have let him. He would even not take her that night. Soon, and when he did, it would be for eternity. He now knew.

Kissing Anna had been a choice that Adriel had been happy to make, but once he’d started, stopping was going to be another matter. The female called to a part of his soul which until that moment had remained untapped. A siren’s song that he was helpless to resist, not that he wanted to in the least.

He groaned deep, a rumbling one in his chest even, but Anna softly moaned at their kiss. She was almost putty in the male’s arms at that point. His tightening hold on her made her hands on his shirt tighten into a fists around the soft and expensive fabric. She pulled back against him, which elicited another groan mixed with a growl and she found herself lifted quickly off the floor by just the hand that had been on her ass, but had slid lower to be under it. Without thought, her long, shapely legs wrapped around his waist as he carried her to somewhere.

It seemed like only a few steps and she felt something firm under her ass that he sat her on and his hand that had been carrying her joined his other one in her hair. Their kiss broke and he gently pulled her back slightly from him. Their eyes met and she fought to slow both her pulse and her breath. Her legs were still around him and she wasn’t releasing him, but then again he wasn’t seeming to want to be released.

“You are a dangerous temptation, mia piccola bellezza.” His voice hoarse, his forehead was almost touching hers. AdrieL’s voice wasn't reproachful, instead it was filled with a desire his expression fully mirrored. He was having to keep his hands in those golden strands of silk to keep her pulled back lest he get lost in another kiss with her again. A Grigori. Of all the beings to have in his arms, wrapping herself around him the way he wanted to wrap her up in him, this was not what he could have anticipated.

Suddenly Anna felt unsure of what was transpiring between them. The undeniable attraction, the growing passion, the connection that seemed to transcend logic all had been pushed aside when his lips met hers, but he now was bringing that forward. She knew his words were not a rejection, she could tell from his whole demeanor that he was fighting with himself the same way that she was internally warring, and that scared her a little.

“I may be dangerous, Adriel, but you scare me a little.” Her voice was soft, a little hoarse as well. At the same time that her hands were slowly releasing his shirt, her teeth caught the corner of her lower lip while she looked up at him through lowered lashes.

Their foreheads came together with the softest of touches and Adriel could have sworn there was an actual spark that passed between them. Not one like static electricity, but one of a soul deep connection being established. “There should be nothing about me that scares you, mia bella.” One hand left her hair, coming forward to cup the side of her face and hold it tenderly. “Unless it is the same thing that makes you so dangerous to me. What is between us is unexpected and strong, as well as unexpected. Angels mate only once….” He let the statement hang there and saw the gentle movement of her throat as she swallowed. He’d been right about what she had meant. “I promise to be most gentle with your heart, my dear one.” His thumb swept over her cheek, his expression softening and his eyes tender as he took her in. HIS female. HIS Grigori. HIS.

After the last year, she had wanted to run from anything feeling like it could lead to a relationship; instead she was sitting there looking into the eyes of a man that had just told in no uncertain terms that she was his mate. That alone should terrify her. Instead that almost calmed Anna. First, it meant that what she was feeling wasn’t insanity. Second, she knew how most beings were with their mates.

“Mate?” Her voice barely more than a whisper, Anna had to ask. She had to make sure she was not misunderstanding.

Couple of the interior concept arts I've done for work. I'm working on dark fantsy\middlepunk RPG project called Distortion, it's supposed to be released in the early access somewhere in 2025. g-a-p.games/ The smithy was especially fun one to make as it required to do a deepdive into Medieval forgery in a very short term. Now I know stuff about wire drawing, different types of hammers and anvils, carpenter tools, chainmail creation and many more x)

Author and WIP Introduction

My Name is J. Lynnell I am a nonbinary author of color. I mainly write Science Fiction/Fantasy stories with the general rating being 18+. I have been writing for almost 2 decades now, and I also have poems published in The Midnight Collection Vol. 2 Dark Harvest. Which you can read CHRYSANTHEMUM: a hanahaki inspired poem of the acceptance and death of unrequited love {CW: Contemplation of suicide, Death}, UNTITLED IN DEATH: a poem dedicated to the beauty of nature and in death we return to the earth {CW: Death}, and the third poem COMPROMISE: a poem on the inevitable end that awaits us all {CW: Death}.

My About Me can be found HERE

I can also be found of Twitter and Instagram

I am also available for commissions if someone wants and I've started an ART TAG that I will update with my artwork.

(I'll have an updated list of tags here at a later date)

On to my projects:

Dark Fantsy + Romance: Adult A story set against the backdrop of a centuries old conflict between those without magic, Vampyres, and those with magic, Fae. This Dark And Divine Place is the first book in it's series that introduces us to Rashka, sister to Empress Ivette Ananulli and her husband Emperor Seung Ananulli, of the last Great Vampyre Empire that is not fully under the Consul's control. When an entire clan is murdered in the dead of night the Counsul is called to convene. Along the way Rashka is mistaken for her sister and taken, with little hope of her survival none of the Counsul members wish to waste time nor their resources to find her. Except for the Fae representatives, who offer up one of their own to search for her.

Note: This story is an enemies to lovers slow burn with explicit sexual content. It's also not a "will they?" story but a "how did they?" one. This series was started well after I had started trying to draft the Cursed Children and I decided I should tell the parents story before the children's.

{Full WIP Intro} {Series Intro} {WIP Page} {Characters}

*MILD SPOILERS FOR TDADP*

Dark (Urban) Fantasy: Adult The passing of several years find Rashka and Bahram with a growing family, and the knowledge that they each made a bargain— a selfish bargain. Ones that they decided to keep from their children including their eldest. Reign, who's life is not only coveted by darker forces that linger behind false companionship, but also set with a bounty for being the outcome of her parents' forbidden union. Unknown to her, as Reign finds herself having to reap the retribution of her parents actions, her own siblings are forced to take their own punishments in their search to free her from her own prison.

Note: This is the sequel series to TDADP, it takes place several years after the first series and spans a good length of time into a "modern" age. It's told from a multi pov of each of the children, with the main story following Reign and the other siblings each getting a story f their own that ties in. The stories of the children in of themselves are much darker than TDADP .

{Full WIP Intro} {Series Intro} {WIP Page} {Characters}

Dystopian/Cyberpunk: Adult She has to remember who she is. Not what the night terrors trick her into believing. Her name is Alexia Volkova, she fluctuates between the high rise of city life among the neon lights and towers made of reflective glass, and the slums of a worn down remodeled complex paid for in cash with no name on the lease. That's how it's always been, the terrors signaling the oncoming lapse in her suppressants. The need for more comes with the involvement in a mass murder in more than one location across the sectors of New Haven and a run in with the lead investigator.

Note: This idea is as old as TDADP and one that reddit had called a "Resident-Evil-knock-off" {derogatory} so I named the main love interest Leon because I could. A story told by very unreliable narrators and very morally grey characters.

{Full WIP Intro} {Series Intro} {WIP Page} {Characters}

Urban Fantasy: Adult Their bloodlines came with rules, a set of laws they must abide by set by their founders— first of their name— written into their very bones. To be honored and upheld. Savina Starling had obeyed those laws until now, when the greatest law to her was broken. Songbirds shall not murder other Songbirds. With the sacrifice of her family she not only returned to claim a throne that was not hers by law, but to take vengeance with the help of the devil by her side.

Note: This was born from an idea where a cult misinterprets a blood sacrifice and that the person who's blood is spilled on a summoning sigil is the one bound to the demon it summons, and if the idea had a baby with my disappointment at the staleness of some of my once upon a time favorite monster/demon/human stories.

{Full WIP Intro} {Series Intro} {WIP Page} {Characters}

Paranormal Mystery + Romance: Adult Hector Del Bosque an up and coming opera lead ready to star in his first headlining show after the success of his first role becomes a suspect for the murder of his on (and off) stage lover and costar. With the show put to a halt as the understudies are all scared off from taking the leading role. Enter one peculiar lead, Evelynn Delacroix Desbois, her too wide eyes seems to stare through Hector— through most things even as she takes the stage to practice, haunting is what comes to mind. Different than the dutiful servant and almost bodyguard, Reyes, that hovers around her when not talking to staff. Haunting and stubborn against the onslaught of threats.

Note: This honestly was supposed to be POTO inspired and sorta is but not really. It also has a poly relationship as the main romance. Though not the only work I have listed that has a poly romance as the main one.

{Full WIP Intro} {WIP Page} {Characters}

Fantasy: Adult There was power to be had in a name and that is why Brooke Vale chose his carefully, that was the deal after all. His uncle let him flee with his life his own if he never uttered his given name to anyone. Years have passed and the sprawling forest surrounding the once thriving kingdom has taken over as a deadly setting to a cruel tyranny. When old faces come to beg for Brooke to challenge his cousin for the throne he not-so-politely declines. The kingdom of Treyalla had done without him for twelve years what is another sixty more? His only answer is to find the rightful prince, the heir to the king his own very own parents usurped the throne from. Their only lead? Is within that very forest where the old gods slumber and their guide is a girl all too willing to keep their secrets.

Note: This story has been a long one in the making and while nothing it down solid it is a series that is either going to be a trilogy with each book following a different set of characters all woven together or just like Godly Ruins.

{Full WIP Intro} {Series Intro} {WIP Page} {Characters}

The following are WIPs that are not at the forefront of my current projects but still there (any that are tba/coming soon are ones that I just don't have a coherent plot to go with):

Our Multiple Lives Told Through A Single Set Of Eyes: When a woman takes a job as a companion to an elderly man his interests are stories and although skeptical of the new hire he asks her for a story unlike any other. And what better story can she tell of a young woman and the devil she married, sold her soul to, and escaped. A devil that is still hunting down his missing bride.

What Awaits Us In The Dark Of The Sea: The daughter of a merchant upon the news of her betrothal to a man she never met, a betrothal that had been set in stone after tragedy struck her family, decides that the very waters that had claimed not only her father's vast fortune just weeks earlier but her mother and oldest sister's lives when she was a child could have her too. Only she awakens soaked on the beach with a circle of small rings branded on her thigh. A claiming of the creatures that drown men and women. But it vanishes as if it was nothing more than her imagination the very day her intended knocks on the doors to have her hand.

Untitled haunted painting: a couple move into a house in a small town, beautiful even the portrait of the original owners remains on the mantle in the grand room. Even as eyes follow the couple as they go about their lives.

Untitled possible thief story: (more to come)

Fall With Me/Rise For You (duology): When the fiancée of the village's local priest finds a wounded angel in the rafters she keeps it her own secret and what starts as an uneasy friendship turns into an affair

Untitled Circus novel: (coming soon)

Untitled mafia novel: An "FBI" agent that is bought by the mafia covers up a witnesses murder as the local serial killer's work and the killer isn't happy. So unhappy that the agent's new wife becomes a target.

Untitled shadow monster novel: (TBA it's my I support women's wrongs novel)
