survival

He needed to stop, this wasn’t why he’d followed her. He had only wanted to finally speak with her about their arrangement. But his body wouldn’t let him– her flushed face sent ripples of hot need coursing right through him. A moan escaped her, shattering what little self control he maintained. —————— Six years ago, Gabrielle walked away from Edward Harrington with nothing but a broken heart and a secret growing inside her. Now she’s back— not for love, not for forgiveness, but because she has run out of choices. With a daughter to protect, a mother slipping away, and poverty closing in, Gabrielle steps into a world she no longer recognizes: Edward’s world. A world of wealth, power, quiet cruelty, and memories that refuse to stay buried. Edward is no longer the boy who once loved her. He is colder. Sharper. Untouchable. And he knows exactly how much power he holds. As past desire collides with present resentment, Gabrielle must survive a house where she doesn’t belong, a society that judges her at a glance, and a man who wants control more than reconciliation. But the most dangerous truth of all? Their past never ended. And their daughter is standing right between them. Love. Power. Humiliation. Desire. Revenge. In the Harrington estate, nothing is gentle—and nothing is free.

A reclusive high school loner is isekai'd to a fantasy RPG world with his class. While others grab flashy cheats, he gets the "useless" leftovers and vows to live in peaceful solitude. But his broken skill combos make him absurdly OP, and the world refuses to leave him alone: monsters attack, classmates fail spectacularly, and gorgeous girls—adventurers, nobles, beastkin—keep throwing themselves at him, building an unstoppable harem. Haruka denies it all ("I'm a loner, damn it!"), yet he conquers dungeons, builds empires, and reluctantly dives into explicit, steamy entanglements. Hilarious wish-fulfillment where isolation is impossible and success is overwhelming. (18+ only – explicit harem sex scenes, adult content.)

When democracies fell, politicians and presidents succumbed to ambition. Some were assassinated, others betrayed their nations for ephemeral power. From the chaos rose the 24 Empires, ruled by sovereigns that the world came to call the Celestial Sovereigns. There are no more countries, only territories shaped by the will of these beings. Each empire dictates its law, its faith, and its war. Amid fragile alliances and hidden conflicts, humanity survives under thrones raised on ruins. Now, on this board of gods and mortals, the battle for the true destiny of the world is about to begin. This story is originally written in Portuguese and is being translated into English. I appreciate your understanding and feedback to keep the story faithful to its original version.

In a world overrun by monstrous creatures and dark entities, humanity is forced to fight back. A renowned organization discovers a way to eliminate these threats—by harnessing their essences and cores, they develop advanced weapons and systems that awaken extraordinary abilities and skills in carefully chosen individuals. As the world evolves and technology advances, many of these dark entities can blend into society, making them nearly impossible to detect until it’s too late. Ezekiel is chosen to wield the Sorcerer System, granting him the power to control magic. Alongside him are his squad, each awakened with their own unique systems, combining their abilities to take on deadly missions. Together, they face formidable enemies, navigate a society where danger could come from anywhere, and uncover hidden conspiracies that threaten humanity itself.

Kiera has spent her life as an interstellar Cinderella. Trapped in a forgotten town where ordinary humans scrape by, unaware of the powerful beings living among them. Abused by her stepmother, starved by her stepsisters, and stripped of even the most basic human dignity, Kiera dreams of only one thing: escape. And answers. Especially about her father’s sudden, mysterious death. Her fate changes the night she meets a strange old woman at one of her stepmother’s lavish parties. By dawn, Kiera receives an impossible letter, an admission and full scholarship to the Academy of Hervlish Cenox Emris (AHCE). The name is foreign. The school, hidden deep within the mountains, is something she has never heard of. Even stranger, the recommendation comes from someone she doesn’t recognize. With nothing left to lose, Kiera accepts. As a human, this is her one chance to sever ties with her past and start anew. But AHCE is no sanctuary. It is a school ruled by monsters, immortals with perfect smiles, sharpened instincts, and hearts that no longer beat. From the moment she steps inside, Kiera realizes she hasn’t escaped hell… she’s walked straight into it. To survive, she must hide what she is. To uncover the truth, she must awaken what was sealed within her. And to live, she must outwit creatures far older, and far crueler, than herself. Especially him. The charming, infuriating student who bullies her with a glib tongue and a predatory gaze. His skin is cold as ice. His heartbeat nonexistent. And yet, he watches her as if she were the only thing keeping him alive. Because her blood is pure. And her past is anything but human. In a world where love is dangerous, secrets are lethal, and immortals never let go of what they desire… "Are you willing to bet your life?"

Born from the depths of the Bottomless Abyss, forsaking all that came before. In the endless carnage and destruction, I ascended the blood-drenched throne, crowned by the wails of the damned and the agony of the slain!

Operating under the alias "Aron Dark," he must balance a rivalry-turned-partnership with Neal Caffrey while secretly building his own criminal empire to dismantle the threats waiting in the show’s future.

Synopsis: SLOTH: COSMI-NAPPER Leo Vance, the self-proclaimed "Grand Master of Elegant Sloth," has perfected his life philosophy: total comfort and minimal effort. Yet, when a catastrophic cosmic flicker destabilizes all reality, Leo's accidental nap activates the Dream Weaver Protocol, forcing the reluctant slacker to become the multiverse's most unlikely savior. Leo's power is Cosmic Inertia (Ultimate Sloth), which stabilizes reality only when he achieves absolute stillness. This forces him into an agonizing paradox: his heroism demands he rest, while his conscience demands he act. He must now hunt the lost Lumina Seeds—the keys to stability—which are hidden behind psychological trials. Tasked with commanding his chaotic genius is Astrid Laura, the hyper-efficient Systems Analyst who believes only in quantifiable logic. Their constant, high-friction sparring fuels a rapid-fire enemies-to-lovers dynamic, where their verbal warfare becomes their greatest psychological defense. Joined by a loyal muscle, a cryptic seer, and a chaos wizard, the team must confront the systematic corruption of the Whisper King—an entity that feeds on fear and uses betrayal to sabotage the team's deepest bonds. To win, Leo must sacrifice the core philosophical lie of his life, push his power toward the terrifying Zeroness, and confront the chilling prophecy that success will demand a final, absolute betrayal by the one person he needs most: Astrid. Sometimes, saving reality is less about smashing enemies, and more about strategically falling asleep on the job.
