Introduction

Hey, my gorgeous sinners! This is your Author Lavz.

I live in my own gloriously delusional world, where my friends have learned that the only way to shut me up is to make me write these fucked-up stories. And honestly? Best decision ever. Now I get to pour all my twisted thoughts into words and ruin your sanity while I’m at it.

Welcome to the BLOODSTAINED VERSE. 

Yeah, you read that right. If the name didn’t clue you in, I will. They’re fucked up. Beyond repair. And they’ll mess with your mind just like they’re messing with mine.

The characters? Oh, they’re not just mad and crazy. Those words are too less for them. They’re walking, talking disasters wrapped in sin and chaos—and I fucking love every second of it.

I don’t write fairy tales, and my characters aren’t saints. So, at some point, you’re gonna question their choices. Trust me, I do too. evil laugh. 

So, if you’re here for morally pure, holier-than-thou heroes and heroines… honey, this is your cue to leave before shit gets too dark. Because I’ll tell you right now—no one talks shit about my characters. They’re the LOML. Period.

English is not my first language. But I work my ass off to give you the best version possible.

And listen up— If I ever disappear halfway through this madness, just know I didn’t abandon you, babes. Either life decided to fuck me harder than the MMC in my book, or I’m buried under the crushing weight of reality, but don’t worry, I always come back.

[And please do your research on this if you’re planning to read. Don’t come crying to me later like, “WTF? Did he rape her?” Nope. You’ve been warned.]

If even one of these triggers makes you uncomfortable, this is your last chance to exit. Because trust me—I mean the trigger warnings.

This is a DARK ROMANCE. So expect all the fucked-up, twisted, and sinful stuff that comes with it.

No other woman drama. No cheating. So breathe easy, babes. You’re safe here. 💋

And plagiarism? Don’t even think about it.

You know that feeling when you pour your heart into a school project, and some sneaky classmate steals it and claims it as their own? Yeah, I’ve been there. And it sucks. So, please respect my efforts.

Plot? Check.

Toe-curling smut? Double check.

A wild ride that’ll leave you breathless? Fuck yes.

Buckle up, darlings—you won’t be disappointed. Love ya!

To the world, Shanaya Oberoi is untouchable—grace, beauty, and innocence wrapped in perfection. But to Abhimanyu Raisinghania, she’s an obsession waiting to be claimed.

Fake dating her? Just the beginning. Marrying her? That’s the endgame.

But Shanaya isn’t who she seems. Beneath the elegance lies Elena Williams—a queen of shadows. And while Abhimanyu is falling deeper, something else lurks in the darkness. Watching. Waiting.

What happens when a man obsessed with control falls for a woman who thrives in chaos?

Will love blind him… or will her truth—and the shadow lurking in the darkness—destroy them both?
