As a nobleman’s bastard, Elain lived with her aunt’s family, the Blythmors, without carrying her father’s surname and was always referred to as a ‘distant relative.’ In exchange for food and a roof over her head, she was required to live by certain rules: keep a low profile, keep the truth of her birth a secret, and never cause trouble for the Blythmors. Avoiding trouble came easy for her… Until one rainy night, when she met a wounded stranger and tended to him in a cottage where she was alone. What she thought would be a one-time encounter soon became something she was not prepared for. Attending the ball at Greyford Manor, the estate of the nation’s wealthiest family, was a dream come true for Elain. But she soon realized that trouble had come looking for her, clad in a dashing suit and armed with devious silver eyes. - “Looks like someone has lost her way.” Elain nearly yelped as the voice came from behind her. Her eyes widened the moment she realised who it was. She lowered her head at once, offering a bow as her heart faltered in her chest. “I would have offered to show you the estate myself, had you expressed the desire for a tour,” he said, watching her with silver eyes gleaming in the shadows. It made him look more sinister, like a devious being waiting for the perfect prey. The rumours came back to her about the Greyfords not being human, and a shiver ran down her spine. She was alone with him, far from the others. “I apologise if I have taken such liberties,” she replied, straightening her back, though her gaze remained lowered. “My apologies, milord.” She could feel his stare on her, yet she didn’t dare lift her eyes. “I shall return inside—” “Are you acting so tame now that you know who I am?” Elain resisted the urge to mutter a curse under her breath, the sort she only ever allowed herself in secret moments of frustration. Why could he not simply leave her be? Did he truly take such pleasure in provoking her? “If I have offended you during our previous encounters, then I offer my sincerest apologies, Mr. Greyford. I hope you won’t take it to heart.” “Look at me when you speak to me, Lady Elain.” Warning: Mature content.

Hesa and his crew, Thirteen, rose to fame on social media thanks to their adrenaline-pumping horror exploration content. In pursuit of a new thrill, they decided to explore an abandoned villa that had long been left to decay. From the very beginning, Hesa was haunted by an ominous feeling-but curiosity clouded his judgment. During the exploration, Hesa encountered a mysterious figure who delivered a vague warning. It was then that he realized the villa wasn't just an old, empty building-it was a time trap, imprisoning vengeance and darkness. One by one, members of Thirteen began to experience strange events, as the secrets of the villa slowly unraveled a dark past that was never meant to be awakened. Now, Hesa must choose: walk away and leave the puzzle unsolved, or stay-and face the terror that has long awaited their arrival. "In that villa, they weren't the ones hunting ghosts.

In the ancient village of Amari, the forest is alive—and it watches. Spirits walk quietly among humans, choosing hosts not for strength, nor for goodness, but for necessity. Most are gentle. Some are wise. One, however, has not appeared in decades: the Leopard. When seventeen-year-old Princess Zaina survives an attack that should have killed her, the impossible begins to stir. Her senses sharpen. Her movements become faster, quieter. Her eyes glow in the dark. And in her dreams, she runs through the forest on four powerful legs. The elders know immediately: the Leopard has returned. But fear spreads faster than awe. The Leopard is not a symbol of protection—it is a symbol of power no one can control. The last host nearly destroyed Amari, and the villagers swore it would never rise again. Zaina is told to kneel, to obey, to suppress her gift. But the Leopard does not submit easily—and neither does she. As outsiders encroach on the sacred forest, threatening both humans and spirits, Zaina must learn to control her growing power before it consumes her. Every choice risks everything she loves, and every mistake blurs the line between girl and beast. In a world where balance is law and power is feared, Zaina must decide whether to bow—or to stand and let the Leopard walk openly once more.

Jaipur everyman's 10M crit hacks transform Karna from abandoned sutaputra to dharma's ultimate apex, respectfully honoring gods while forging legend anew.

Her father has been dead ever since she was born, and her mother disappeared without leaving a trace. In desperate times, as she grew old, she decided to bring her father back to life. But she had no idea where her father was. So, with nothing else to use, she thought of just recreating him through reincarnation.
