I uphold Goblin law, but for her, I'll break it. Even if it costs me my Empire.
SABRINA

As a xenoarchaeologist I’m ready for the expedition of lifetime; to find out the secrets of the ancient Goblin empire. Going rogue on a wild hunch, I stumble upon a civilization so advanced it makes others appear primitive. But nothing in my academic arsenal prepares me for what is to come.

Condemned as a trespasser, I face the savage justice of the Goblin King, an alien whose brutal charm is as frightening as he is tempting. The Goblin Credo demands my death but when he chooses to makes me his bride instead, I need more than my studies to get out of this bind.

 

ZAREK

Hidden in the vastness of the universe for centuries, my empire now wallows in mundanity. My court demands I take a bride but the options are… beneath me. So, when a human female breaches my carefully concealed kingdom, she stirs more than my curiosity.

Duty demands I kill her. But what’s the rush? As pressures mount and loyalties waver, I find my rule tested. Choosing Sabrina reshapes the foundations of my empire as I’m bound by duty, but captivated by desire.

Abducted by the Ruthless Royal

The series

Full series details →

Across galaxies ruled by brutal kings and dark fates, a pulse beats with something fiercer than conquest—desire. Abducted by the Ruthless Royal spins a seductive web of alien royalty, fated mates, and the unrelenting clash between freedom and fate. In each standalone installment, a fierce human heroine is stolen away—claimed not just as a captive, but as a catalyst to a ruler’s downfall...or redemption.

Read full series description

These aren’t stories of delicate diplomacy. They unfold in primal worlds where instinct and power rule, where monstrous kings possess claws, scales, or shadows—and where love isn’t sweet, but scorching, tangled in dominance, resistance, and the slow unraveling of armor both physical and emotional. From venomous Naga princes to deadly Wraith monarchs cloaked in darkness, each encounter is its own tempest—unpredictable, steamy, and charged with tension.

The series excels in blending science fiction and dark fantasy romance, leaning into the delicious danger of forbidden attraction and the gritty nuances of survival among predators. It doesn’t shy away from intensity, yet it finds unexpected tenderness in the most alien of hearts. The emotional payoff is as thrilling as the battles, and every abduction feels less like theft and more like a storm long overdue.

Perfect for readers who crave possessive anti-heroes, slow-burn tension, and immersive, high-stakes worlds, this series delivers heat, heart, and a wild ride through the stars—where surrender doesn’t mean weakness, and love is the most ruthless force of all.
