When demonic forces and demon hunters become involved, Sia realizes that her sister’s grudge is more than a family matter, it's part of something far greater.

Every ten years, the vampires descend into the smog-choked Underworld to claim their Tithe — one human from every household, bound by an ancient blood pact that buys another decade of fragile peace. In the Middle and Upper Districts, the Selection is an honour. In the Lower District, it is a gamble. Because for the desperate, it is the only way out. A chance to trade a life for enough gold to save those left behind. Luenna never wanted anything to do with the Spire Lords of the Upperworld. But with debt closing in and survival slipping through her fingers, she makes the unthinkable choice by offering herself. She expects servitude. Obedience. To disappear. What she does not expect was him. A predator who finds the treaty tedious and the ceremony beneath him. A creature of marble-cold beauty, with a tongue sharper than his fangs. He should have no interest in a voluntary offering from the Lower District. And yet, with a careless smirk that promises ruin, he breaks protocol to claim her. "Rules are for those who lack the power to break them. And you, Lune… you look like you'd make a very entertaining mess." Dragged into the dazzling, vicious world above, Luenna is bound to a master who defies every horror story she has ever known. He is arrogant, merciless, and infuriatingly charming. He mocks her sacrifice, tests her defiance, and treats her like something dangerously precious. Yet he would unmake the world before letting another soul touch her. She should fear him. She does. But when she finally reaches for a blade to end him, he kisses her with the soul-crushing weight of a thousand years of obsession. "Go on," he murmurs against her lips. "Fight me. Run. Hate me until it devours you." His voice softens then, just enough to ruin her. "In the end… you still chose this world. And I am what it gives you." --×-- >> Tags: [tragedy • vampire • fated love • sweet • narcissist • romance • possessive • comedy • fantasy] >> Word count per chapter: 1.5k ~ 1.8k

Cryptera Chain Signals is a specialized cryptocurrency recovery and blockchain forensics firm dedicated to helping victims reclaim lost or stolen digital assets. Operating as a trusted agency in the crypto space, the company focuses on advanced crypto fund recovery, digital fraud investigation, and precise blockchain analysis to restore funds taken through scams, hacks, phishing attacks, fake investment platforms, and other fraudulent schemes. With 28 years of experience in digital forensics, Cryptera Chain Signals (often abbreviated as CCS) positions itself as a leader in the field, particularly in 2026, where billions are lost annually to crypto-related crimes. The firm was founded on principles of transparency, confidentiality, and realistic client expectations, aiming to rebuild trust in the cryptocurrency ecosystem by providing professional, intelligence-driven solutions. Their core service revolves around a comprehensive, step-by-step recovery process. It begins with an initial consultation—often including a free intake or assessment—where clients provide details such as transaction records, wallet addresses, communications with scammers, and any relevant evidence. The team then conducts thorough investigations using sophisticated blockchain forensics tools to trace stolen funds. This includes analyzing transaction flows, identifying patterns across wallets, and employing their proprietary Multi-Layer Wallet Attribution system. Unlike basic tracing methods that fail against mixers, cross-chain bridges, or laundering techniques, this advanced approach creates persistent "fingerprints" of wallets based on behavioral and technical markers, enabling tracking even in complex cases. Once funds are located, Cryptera Chain Signals takes swift recovery actions. They collaborate directly with cryptocurrency exchanges to request asset freezes, preventing scammers from cashing out. In many instances, they prepare detailed forensic reports that support legal proceedings, guide clients on reporting to law enforcement, and assist with any necessary claims. This partnership-driven strategy has led to notable successes, such as recovering millions in Bitcoin from phishing campaigns, fake platforms, and bridge exploits by linking addresses to identifiable exchange accounts or consistent patterns. The company emphasizes education alongside recovery, explaining concepts like UTXO management in Bitcoin or ERC-20 transfers to help clients understand the process and why quick action is critical. They highlight real-world impact through documented cases, including high recovery rates in sophisticated scenarios previously deemed untraceable. Clients praise Cryptera Chain Signals for its secure, evidence-based methods—never requiring sensitive keys or seed phrases—and its focus on professionalism. Contactable via their website (crypterachainsignals.com) or email ([email protected]), the firm continues to stand out as a go-to expert for those seeking to regain financial security after crypto losses.

"Sometimes, life changes in the quietest moments... but maybe these changes are destined for your destiny."

A generic Isekai story with no other redeeming qualities. Death is often the end of all things, a stop to the train known as life. That is common sense. But what if it wasn't?

An ancient curse from Japan’s ancient times had afflicted one crime boss named Sora Hashimoto, a rich-style gangster dressed in black formal clothes with a group of SWAT-style gangsters called the Black Feathers. Because of it, they were infected by a curse-afflicted zombie virus that forced them not only kidnap and kill people but also drink their blood. No one knows how to stop this curse, as records of techniques to do so were now lost forever. However, not all hope is lost because one young Japanese-Cambodian man named Rathanak Murakami, who was from Yokohama, will help the gang curb their bloody urges by taking the suffering himself so that no one else will need to suffer under them. This was possible because Rathanak, a son of businesspeople working in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, had a spirit of immortality when he was 1o years old. But this decision would spring a friendship between Rathanak and Sora and his gang, and even, an opportunity to stop this curse from causing more damage, death, and destruction to everyone and society, as well as stopping a centuries-old demon mage that was responsible for the curse.

Power built the Murad empire. Blood secured it. Betrayal nearly destroyed it. Across India, New York, and beyond, Sohan Kadeon Murad reigns as one of the most feared men in the underworld. CEO of eight global empires and supreme leader of the Obsidian Triad, he rules with calculated brutality. His enemies vanish. His name commands silence. Yet even the darkest king had a weakness. His wife, Riyana. And their only daughter— Lilith Mahira Baneva. Born as the final heir. The true owner of everything. When greed consumes Sohan’s own cousins, a carefully orchestrated attack shatters the Murad family. A truck collision meant to eliminate Riyana and six-year-old Lilith leaves Riyana missing and presumed dead. Lilith survives—but her mind does not. Sohan unleashes hell on those responsible, wiping out bloodlines in a storm of vengeance before being imprisoned for ten years. His final command to his eight sons: No war among yourselves. Protect your sister. Keep her away from the darkness. While the brothers rise into powerful men—ruthless, disciplined, and loyal—Lilith grows up in a mental asylum, her brilliant mind trapped in the innocence of a child. Unknown to her brothers, someone close ensures she never heals, poisoning her recovery with damaging medication to keep her fragile… and unfit to rule. At sixteen, she returns home. Beautiful. Quiet. Mischievous. Broken. The empire legally belongs to her—but the world sees only a shattered girl holding pieces of herself together. Then comes the man powerful enough to rival the Murads. The feared leader of The Dominion Apex—half Russian, half American, Indian by blood. A king among kings. Cold. Strategic. Merciless. During a high-stakes alliance meeting, a single moment changes everything. He sees Lilith Mahira Baneva. And instead of weakness, he sees something no one else dares to look for. He takes her. What begins as possession slowly shifts into something far more dangerous—an obsession neither of them expected. In her silence, he finds calm. In his darkness, she finds protection. But beneath the fragile surface of the shattered heiress lies something waiting. Healing. Memory. Power. Will Lilith Mahira Baneva rise to reclaim the empire written in her blood? Will the ruthless king fall for the girl the world underestimated? Or will secrets, betrayal, and war tear apart what remains of the Murad legacy? In a world ruled by monsters, the most dangerous throne belongs to a broken queen.

[Recently, while writing a fresh chapter I realised I may be writing a scene which may trigger a few people. It is a torture scene. I tried to make it as less descriptive as possible, walking around it instead of making it too descriptive. The specific scene is in Chapter 17 and 18- avoid these chapters if you don't like too intense stuffs. But I will still like to leave a warning :) ALSO, while writing if I find that I have to write more scenes like that involving torture, war, Gore, I may update the list of chapters to avoid]

He was stolen before he could be named. Experimented on before he could walk. And somewhere in the shadows — an enemy has been watching him ever since. Xavier didn't choose this life. He didn't choose the prophecy, the power, or the war closing in around him. What he did choose — what he chooses every single day — are the ideals his father gave him: that love is worth dying for, and that protecting others is reason enough to keep standing. But the force hunting Xavier's world has been preparing for decades. Patient. Methodical. Always smiling. Its ambition doesn't stop at conquest or empire — it reaches for godhood itself, for the power to rewrite reality and remake the world in the image of one man's vision. A world where only the worthy survive. Where he alone decides what worthy means. One boy carrying his father's ideals. One genius who believes his vision justifies every cost. And between them — a question that cuts deeper than any blade: Is Xavier a hero because fate decided he would be? Or because he chose to be, despite everything it costs him? The Superior Rebirth is a dark fantasy epic about heroism, love, sacrifice, and the difference between the destiny you're handed and the one you carve out yourself — set against the smoke and ambition of an industrial age where power is the only currency that matters. This is not a story about becoming powerful. It is a story about becoming worthy of the people who believed in you. ------------------------------------------------- Support my book on other Sites :) : Wattpad: https://www.wattpad.com/story/368678204-the-superior-rebirth-a-hero%27s-awakening Royal Road: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/86403/the-superior-rebirth-a-heros-awakening Scribblehub: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/1111001/the-superior-rebirth-a-heros-awakening

This is a Warhammer 40,000 fan-made story. While some timeline elements have been slightly adjusted for narrative purposes, the tone and spirit remain unmistakably Warhammer. Expect references to memes, historical events, and chaos-fueled absurdity woven into the drama of this universe. Li Feng, an ordinary college student studying in the US, thought he was just driving home with his quiet, gentle girlfriend Empress. But in the blink of an eye, a roaring warp vortex tore open before them and dragged Li Feng across reality itself, hurling him straight into the grim darkness of the forty-first millennium. And then came the real shock. His girlfriend was never human to begin with. She was a fragment of the Emperor’s soul, wandering the mortal world in disguise! ……… Stranded on a barren, war-torn planet with nothing but panic in his lungs, Li Feng found himself surrounded by a mob of bloodthirsty orks. Just when he was certain he was about to become green-skinned minced meat, a glowing panel materialized in front of him. A system? In the Warhammer universe? Maybe... just maybe... things were about to get interesting. -------------------------------- 70 advanced chapters are now available on Patreon!

An ordinary guy, first love, a happy family — Ray Evans had everything one could dream of. He created the "Crimson Devils" to protect those he held dear. But the world is cruel to those who try to hold onto happiness for too long. 237 chapters. 56 of them — about how paradise is built. And 181 — about how it burns. "Tragedy and the Birth of the Devil" is not just a revenge story. It's about the price a person pays when they refuse to give up, even when giving up is the only reasonable option. Welcome to a world where love is poison, family is a cult, and death is far from the worst ending. My name is Dea Evans. This is the story of the person who meant everything to me—my brother, Ray. It all began long before I was born, when he met a girl named Lily. Ray wasn't your typical hero: overweight, sick, with a black eye and a broken destiny. Lily wasn't looking for a prince either—she was just trying to survive after her parents' death and save her family. But together, they found what they were searching for: love, support, and hope. However, the world is cruel. Especially to those who dare to be happy. This story is about how something new rises from the ashes of tragedy. About how wounded souls find each other. And about how family isn't always those who share your blood. Sometimes, it's those who are willing to die for you.
