Sterne: Origins
Every empire begins before anyone is watching.

Sterne: Monica
Some bonds are chosen. Others are recognized.
In 2009, Monica Vale enters Julian Sterne’s world of precision and proximity, believing she understands power through observation.
Monica is a deliberate reshaping — not conquest or fantasy, but the quiet recognition of a dynamic built on consent, restraint, and the clarity of being fully seen.

Two x Three
Three women. One fracture point. No clean exit.
In 2024, three women — Ingrid, Nora, Sasha — cross paths in a series of charged, unexpected moments that none of them planned and none of them can quite leave alone.
Two x Three is a sapphic novel about adult desire, negotiated connection, and what it takes to stay when leaving would be simpler.

Sterne: Valerie
Some encounters are inevitable. Others are irreversible.
In 2024, flight attendant Valerie Mitchell meets Julian Sterne — the beginning of a descent into rituals of service and surrender.
Valerie explores vulnerability colliding with control — not a traditional romance, but a psychologically charged story of possession, devotion, and the cost of wanting to be claimed.
