Sofia05
"The thin line between love and hate slowly disappeared when he felt her touch." Being the first born child and next in line to take over after his father, Desmond Fedorov was bound to his duties. After losing an important person in her life, Elsa dreaded the thought of losing another family member. In order to ensure the safety of the two powerful Mafia families, Elsa Marino and Desmond Federov were forced into an arranged marriage. Getting involved with a Marino was not even the last thing Desmond wanted but he had no other choice. He swore to never cross a line with his arranged wife. He wanted to be married to her only on the vows they had taken. Elsa also had no expectations from the marriage. Love was not something she expected of her new husband. She knew she would be his wife only in name. But with the growing tension and chemistry between them, how long will they manage to keep their hands off each other? With new secrets unfolding itself and the looming danger threatening to tear them apart, will the couple ever find love and peace? …… Excerpt: Desmond wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer. "Let me go—" Elsa tried to push him away. He tightened his grip around her waist. "Didn't you say I could touch you anywhere I want? I am your husband after all." He gently grabbed her chin. She jerked her face to the other side and scoffed. "You wish. You are my husband only in name, remember? You want nothing from this marriage and neither do I." Keeping quiet for a while, Desmond shook his head. "I changed my mind." She frowned. "I want many things from this marriage.” He brushed the corner of her lips with his thumb. “And that includes you." …… (This is the first book of the Mafia hate and love series.)

"The missing ingredient is a test subject with Royal Blood..." Raven Kyzer, a Commoner boy, grew up in an orphanage along with his twin sister, after losing their mother at a young age, having never met their father. After being discovered to possess Royal blood, the twins are abducted by the Church of Persona. Raven is used as a test subject in an ancient form of Forbidden Magic, known as the Homunculus Ritual, while his sister goes missing in the clutches of the church. The Homunculus Ritual is conducted to turn Raven into a powerful but mindless Monster, a loyal weapon for the church with no sense of free will...but something goes wrong, the ritual fails to destroy Raven's mind and he escapes the clutches of the church. Furious at being turned into a Monster, Raven swears revenge against the church, determined to make them pay for what they did to him, as well as to rescue his sister from their clutches. But there's only so much he can do by himself, even with the new powers he gained through the Homunculus Ritual...that's when he has a fateful encounter with the nation's most wanted criminals, a group known as The Irregulars, who, like Raven, have their own reasons to despise and go after the church, as well as the corrupt Nobility that oppresses the Commoners.

The Power of +1 [Progression Fantasy, LitRPG about Money]

For more chapters and discussion about +1, please support me on my Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/coffeetimewriting Theo Sterling, a ruthlessly ambitious corporate climber, is violently ejected from his career and finds himself facing the poverty he desperately fears. With only $2,000 between him and the streets, a mysterious mental breakdown leaves him with an impossible gift, the power to grant any object a permanent "+1" enhancement. Driven by his gnawing terror of failure, Theo begins methodically exploiting his unique ability, with the aim of becoming a billionaire. From enhancing basic knives for quick cash (and cutting ethical corners when necessary), to optimizing high-value bicycles for substantial profit, he relentlessly seeks ways to maximize the return on each precious enhancement. Navigating a mundane world with his special power, Theo readily pushes ethics aside, believing ruthlessness is the only path to the almighty profit. As he dives headfirst into more questionable and morally grey endeavours, his bank account swells, but does this solitary climb built on calculated risks lead only to an isolating peak? Or is there a heavier, unseen cost to Theo’s singular pursuit of money? What to Expect: - Money, lots of it, it's all about money! - Progression Fantasy, tracking Theo's path to becoming a billionaire, or die trying - Low fantasy, ability to enhance items with +1, and the ingenious ways of using this to make money - LitRPG used to track profit and losses using a ledger, the measure of wealth and success - Ethics and Morals... nah not really. Theo is as grey as it gets. May come into play later, but only after getting rich, ridiculously rich - 4-5k words per chapter (or more sometimes) Schedule - Daily release (1.5-2k words). Bigger chapters will be split over multiple days. Patreon - story is posted on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/coffeetimewriting
