Looking for fantasy (also open to paranormal, contemporary) enemies to lovers slow burn but with a lot of tangiable sexual tension romance

Hi! ^(I know there are a lot of posts similar to this but somehow I still can't find what I'm looking for. O)^(ne reason is that sometimes I'm not exactly sure that those recs somewhere else fit all of that what I want, so I don't even start with the books (time is precious, peeps.)**********)

So I'm interested in fantasy(prefered one)/paranormal/(and even contemporary) enemies to lovers slow burn but with a lot of tangiable sexual tension romance where the plot plays also a reasonably large part, but the romance has the stage. I love series and I lose interest really fast if the couple gets together soon (the thing I enjoy is the tension and pining, not the happy ending... but I definitely want to get to the happy ending in the end otherwise it's too depressing).

I absolutely adored ACOTAR and recently I read Kulti (although it is a sports romance and even though they didn't make any moves towards the other until the very end, you could still feel the tension or even arousal in almost every scene, ^(for example when the male had to close his eyes tightly and take his time when they did a nude photoshoot, or when the male told the female to stop talking about sex, or when the male came really close to the female from behind to take a cup and the female struggled to speak and so on.... this is what I love :D)).

Also, the male should be somehow a badass: an alfa male, a royal... I love stories where the badass dark heros bring out their good side for their heroins but still be dominant. In addition, there definitely can be explicit scenes.
