Independently published Safe Word | N. von Wolf

She enters Obsidian as Scarlett - masked, poised, and desperate to reclaim the parts of herself a cruel man once shattered. He is Ghost, a dom whose control masks a darker history he's spent years keeping buried. In the shadows, they find something raw: hunger without shame, pain without punishment. But behind the velvet and steel, real lives begin to stir. By day, they're strangers. At night, they come undone. Neither knows who the other truly is - until the past clawing at their heels threatens to strip them bare. When the masks fall, what's left might be too broken to survive it. Safe Word is a dark contemporary romance about trauma, obsession, and the fine line between control and surrender. Behind the mask, a haunted author meets a woman on the run - where consent is ritual, desire is dangerous, and the past bleeds into pleasure.
