mystery

Dominant Omega celebrity Althea Vale wakes up with severe amnesia, only to be confronted by her stunning, ice cold Alpha CEO wife, Haven Hartwell. Haven claims their two year marriage was a cold, calculated "corporate contract" necessitated by Althea's own tyrannical past. Terrified of the monster she used to be, Althea sets out to investigate, armed with a chaotic pinboard, a loyal Golden Retriever, and her confusingly potent pheromones. She quickly discovers two truths: Haven is intensely, secretly devoted to her and the CEO's corporate shield is built on far more profound secrets than just a broken heart. Now, Althea must use her sassy, amnesiac charm to shatter Haven’s emotional control and uncover the truth of their shared past, before her powerful wife's concealed life and the true identity of the woman Althea used to be ruin them both.

They call him Ghost. A name whispered in fear across warzones, black markets, and underworld circles. To the world, he's a phantom—a faceless mercenary who leaves no trace but bodies in his wake. To his enemies, he’s a death sentence. To his brothers-in-arms in Graveyard, he’s family. But to himself... he's a haunted man searching for a past stolen in gunfire and smoke. After a flawless mission deep in the Eastern Province, Ghost returns to the hidden forest base he's called home for sixteen years. Yet the victory is short-lived. His foster father, the commander delivers an unexpected order: "That was your last mission." Now, Ghost—real name Miles Sterling—must step out of the shadows of war and into a world he’s never known. Guided only by a scarred letter, a fading memory, and the voice of a woman he hasn’t seen since the day everything was taken from him. But war forged more than his body and name. Behind the mask, behind the scars, Miles has another secret. One he’s kept hidden even from his brothers in arms. He’s not just a weapon. He’s a ghost with a fortune—a hidden empire he built in silence, across borders and black markets, forged in strategy and blood. A man of many names, and many shadows. Beneath the bullets, tattoos, and silence lies a truth buried in ashes. And Ghost is about to dig it up—one letter, one enemy, one memory at a time.

What happens when you realize that your entire life was fake and you aren't really the person you always believed yourself to be? And now you are stuck in a mysterious and dangerous world where everyone wants you dead, the only thing you have is a terrifying reputation and high intelligence. Allen wakes up in the body of a fearsome and ruthless crown prince in another world. He is considered extremely strong and naturally has countless enemies who want him dead. But soon he realizes three things: First that due to a previous injury, he cannot use his powers properly. Second that his transmigration in this world was not a coincidence, it was pre planned and that he is nothing more than a pawn in the mastermind's grand plan. Third that even though his family rules the entire continent, the outside world is much more vast and he is just a small fish in the big ocean. He must identify and outsmart those hiding in the shadows, uncover forgotten secrets regarding his own past life, navigate through dangerous politics against fellow schemers, explore and conquer this cruel and mysterious world, maintain sanity and deal with internal conflict, while also recovering the original body’s strength. Events overview: Ch 1-12: Initial reputation building, identifying hidden enemies, dominating some fights while also facing a few near death experiences Ch 13-18: Huge lore drops, world building and plot twists (this is where the entire story changes imo) Ch 19-28: High stakes War Ch 29-32: More lore drops and reveals about the outside world and power system. Ch 33-49: Enemy continent's royal family infiltration with a fake identity, schemes, manipulation, politics, and rise from nothing (Slave to king, actually logical and not at all easy) Ch 50-75: Battle of wits with the cunning major antagonist of the second arc, multiple near death experiences, layered schemes and final high stakes war Ch 75-Current: Answers to all the mysteries, lore drops and future planning A few points: The first major arc has been finished (ch 28) and has a pretty satisfactory climax imo. The second major arc has also been finished (ch 29-75) and I'll publish the remaining chapters soon. Trust me, there are insane reveals and shift of tides, and the climax is absolute cinema The MC is not naive, he is intelligent, manipulative and ruthless, but not actually evil. This isn't all about power flex; there are multiple intelligent characters, and the MC is forced to use his brain in various situations. Side characters are not there just for the sake of it; most side characters are complex and get proper development before the major arc ends (ch 28). The villain has a proper backstory and goal, and isn't just there to be a stepping stone for the MC. I have added quite some lore drops and emotional scenes after chapter 10. The intro and first 5 chapters may feel a bit generic, but it gets better and better from the 6th chapter onwards. One warning though, this is a dark and cruel world, and there are a lot of violent and terrifying scenes and body horror in this novel. Initial writing may be a bit weak, but I've fixed most of the previous issues in the current chapters The second major arc (Ch 29 onwards) is especially for those who don't want the MC to start at the top and dominate every fight with pure strength. As in that arc the MC leaves his home continent and starts from nothing (no resources, loyal people, identity, nothing). He conquers the other continent using his brain, through layered schemes and manipulation. But it still has fights and aura moments as the MC hates getting looked down upon. This is not AI slop, the whole story and dialogues have been written by me The MC is OP, but he also struggles in some fights (I haven't given him any plot armor, and the fights feel logical), and also gets outsmarted by others sometimes, there are more intelligent characters than him. The MC is not one of those who will spare his enemies whatsoever. Lmk your feedback

Hidden away from the outside world, a group of children with extraordinary abilities were raised within an isolated castle on a desolate mountainside. ​Among them stand a peculiar pair of twins—bound by a rebellious spirit and armed with a rare, formidable power. When they are deployed on their very first mission beyond the castle walls, they quickly realize the world outside is far from what they were led to believe. The mission meant to test them will unravel everything, dragging to light dark secrets they wish they had never discovered.

He was sealed for six centuries for a crime he cannot remember. When Leylin awakens, the world he knew is gone. The gods who feared him are dead. The enemies who betrayed him are dust. And the girl who once reached his heart survives only as a fading legend. But one thing endured,the hunger. Leylin walks a world that has forgotten why it feared him…and reminds it. One city at a time.One god at a time.One sin at a time. This is not a hero’s return. This is the rise of something far worse. The Monarch of Sin has come back to finish what the heavens started.

Yuuta Konuari was the weakest, most average guy on Earth. Barely scraping through college. Working a part-time job. Growing up in a quiet orphanage with no family to call his own. Life was simple. Predictable. Lonely. Then fate played a cruel game. One night, he dreamed of a woman. A stunning, powerful Dragon Queen from another world and he slept with her. The dream felt so real that he woke breathless, but he convinced himself it was nothing. Just his lonely mind playing tricks. He forgot about it. He moved on. He continued living in silence for Five year. Until she showed up in his room. Erza, the Dragon Queen, crossed worlds to find him. She brought a child with silver hair, tiny wings, and red eyes that looked exactly like his. A little girl who called him "Papa." She gives him one year. One year to prove himself worthy of being her mate. One year before she kills him for tainting the royal bloodline. Yuuta should be terrified. He is terrified. But he has never had a family before. And Elena with her wagging tail, her boundless curiosity, and her absolute certainty that Papa can fix anything has already claimed his heart. On the surface, this is a story about a mortal man who somehow won the heart of an ice queen. A slice-of-life romance about cooking, dancing, and learning to be a family. It is warm. It is tender. It is the kind of story that makes you believe love can conquer anything. It is not. Beneath the surface, something else lurks. A secret buried in Yuuta's blood. A past he was forced to forget. A truth that connects him to the very monsters hunting them. The scars on his back are not from childhood accidents. The nightmares that wake him screaming are not random. And the woman who swore to kill him is beginning to realize that the mortal she despises is not the villain she imagined. He is the victim. The forgotten son. The boy who was never meant to exist. As enemies close in from both worlds, Yuuta must uncover the truth of his origin before it destroys everything he loves. He does not have magic. He does not have power. He has only his hands, his heart, and the stubborn refusal to let go. He doesn't need to be a hero. He just needs to hold on. But holding on may cost him everything.

Jasmine received "shocking" news: she had to marry the Dragon Ghost as his wife. But in exchange, after the marriage, she would inherit the entire estate, subjects, and territory of her husband. Jasmine was overjoyed: "Is there such a sweet deal in this world?" On the wedding day, she dressed up sharply and stepped into the magnificent cathedral, casting an affectionate glance toward her future partner. And then she saw... a Dragon Egg. The majestic Dragon Ghost was nowhere to be seen; there was only an egg lying there all by itself. Inventory of assets: A dilapidated castle, with drafty winds blowing in from all directions. Subjects: Three hundred skin-and-bone slaves who, at first glance, looked like walking skeletons about to collapse from hunger. Territory: A dead land spanning ten thousand square kilometers around the Dragon Valley, so desolate that "dogs eat stones and chickens eat pebbles." Jasmine knew she had fallen for the scam of the century, but unfortunately, the knights who escorted Jasmine here had long since "whipped their horses and vanished," running away a long time ago. An old butler, so aged he could barely walk, tremblingly stepped forward, waiting for the new Lord's instructions: "My Lord..." Jasmine held the "egg-husband" in her arms, and her rational nerves snapped: "I have land and people, could I really let myself starve to death?" Putting words into action, Jasmine rolled up her sleeves and officially embarked on the path of tilling the soil to get rich. Many years later. A strange town suddenly appeared on the mainland, rumored to be obscenely wealthy. From that place flowed exquisite fabrics, pure white porcelain, and sparkling jewelry... Anyone who had ever set foot there could not help but exclaim in amazement, while wandering poets competed to compose poems praising that prosperity until their throats were sore. A certain greedy King became overcome with avarice and brought a massive army, intending to seize the town for his own. The result? They were treated to the sight of a giant dragon descending from the sky to "pay them a visit."

He wanted a girlfriend. He got an eternal nightmare. It started with a download.

I thought I was just an ordinary young man. I was wrong. Espers are real. Astral entities exist. And ever since that “accident,” the world has been falling apart. They say everything’s fine. They’re lying. Now I’m caught in the middle of it… with her. And nothing feels real anymore. Because this world… was never whole.

Kael used to be part of the “Special Army” that defended the world against “monsters.” Fourteen years ago, unknown portals that looked like black holes started to appear all around the world. After the first monster attack, humans gained extraordinary powers. Having learned their lesson, they went and attacked the monsters first before they could strike. Kael was part of the first group of “Extraordinary Humans,” who later called themselves the “Special Army.” He spent the next seven years fighting for peace. He also found the meaning of his life when the person he secretly loved also loved him back. Everything was going well… until they entered an S-Class Dungeon and his special ability was revealed to everyone. A gift of immortality, also known as “Athanasia.” He never could have guessed that his lover, the very person who gave meaning to his life, would be the same person who would take it from him. His lover killed his comrades in front of him one by one, demanding the gift. Kael gave it up willingly, but his lover still killed him in the end. Just when his lover thought he had died, Kael miraculously survived. Seven years later, his lover became the leader of the biggest and most influential guild in the world. Kael planned to live his life in hiding and live peacefully. But he never could have thought that his ex-lover was still obsessed with the “gift,” going as far as hunting each of Kael’s relatives and friends just to get his hands on the “elixir.” Now, Kael is bent on exacting revenge and stopping this monster from being loose. He will do whatever it takes. He can go as far as getting close to his ex-lover’s younger brother and using him for revenge.

What are the chances an orphan goes from scrubbing floors to becoming a Duchess in forty-eight hours? 100%— I would know because it happened to me. Only I wish I had a choice. Because the man I'm supposed to call "father," Baron Tobias Fletcher, sold me off like livestock the moment he found me. Nineteen years of wondering where I came from, and this is how it ends? Not with a family. Not with answers. With a wedding contract and a husband who never removes his mask. The Duke of Wellspring. Nevan Wilder. Every fiancée before me? Dead. Mad. Or gone — vanished like they never existed. They say he kills his brides the night they see what's underneath. So shame on me for thinking meeting my father would finally end my misery. And shame on me twice because when the Duke took my hand in that ballroom, his touch ice-cold and impossibly gentle, I didn't feel fear. I felt something worse. I felt safe. Now I'm trapped in his estate, married to a man the whole kingdom fears, and the more I uncover, the less anything makes sense. Because if Nevan truly kills his brides, why is he trying so desperately to keep me alive? And whatever he's hiding beneath that mask? It's not the thing I should be afraid of.

War is Life in the Great Tree village, Zune. Casualties is to be expected as battles break out almost everyday against the opposing village Fon. Monsters roam this world leaving very little civilized lands. While this war against the two villages has been raging for hundreds of years. Every boy is raised for that purpose. Given no name and taken from their Nurturer at the age 8, and trained until they are 13. Once they have completed this they go through “The Naming” Ceremony. Which names and titles are given too them, as they are added to the ranks of the army. Hunter is an elite title given too the most loyal and talented men in the village. They work in small groups spending most of the time outside of the village and camps. They specialize in recon, tracking, trapping, and killing monsters. At least that’s what The Officials will say. This world called Noon has so much to offer if it wasn’t for the other village. War propaganda is spread across the village. Everyone must do their part to keep their way of life safe. But is this way the right way? Classism, sexism, deceit, corruption, all within the reasoning of The Officials.

Ethan Crowe walked out of prison after seven years with nothing to his name and nowhere to belong. The world he returned to was unrecognisable. Gates had torn open across the globe, monsters roamed beyond human control, and society now revolved around the Titled - people chosen by mysterious voices and granted supernatural powers that made them heroes, weapons, and rulers all at once. Ethan wasn’t one of them. Not at first. Lost, angry, and with no future worth chasing, Ethan was barely surviving when a voice finally spoke to him. "Your Title is… Lord Of Beasts." But something about his awakening was wrong. Instead of gaining power in the real world like every other Titled, Ethan awakened a System tied to the Tower Of Beasts - a brutal, game-like world he can only enter while asleep. Inside the Tower, Ethan must fight for survival against monstrous creatures, earning power through a system of skills, evolution, and beasts. As for the beasts he acquires there? They persist beyond his dreams... Registered as an E Rank Titled with only D Rank potential, Ethan should have been insignificant. Yet the Lord of Beasts cannot be measured by ordinary standards. As Ethan grows stronger at an impossible rate, his existence begins to ripple outward - drawing the attention of elite Titled, criminal syndicates, and forces lurking behind the Gates themselves. His past refuses to stay buried, his beasts grow more dangerous, and the truth behind his Title hints at something far more terrifying than anyone realises. In a world ruled by power, Ethan Crowe starts at the bottom. But as the Lord of Beasts, it’s only a matter of time before he climbs to the top!
