In a world where the night is not a sanctuary, but a slaughterhouse, the Moon is a god of execution. While the common people hide behind the "Silver Seals," a ancient race of monsters known as Kebaruke—born from a forbidden alchemical accident—stalk the shadows. But they have one fatal weakness: the very moonlight that guides them also burns them into white ash. Oolka was a simple girl until the night the Upper Sun Kebaruke decimated her village, leaving only her and her brother, Kgreko, alive. But Kgreko has changed. His hair has split into shades of purple and black, and a hunger grows within him that only blood can satisfy. To save his soul, Oolka must allow a cold-hearted Master to bind her brother’s jaw with a Steel Prayer Seal and teach her the forgotten Arts of the blade. Carrying the mysterious Triangle Mark of the legendary first slayer, Yortaka, Oolka joins the Hankure—an elite group of warriors hunting the King of Kebaruke, Izan. Alongside a wild boy raised by foxes and a girl obsessed with the speed of Heaven, Oolka must navigate a path of fire and frost. But as Izan grows desperate—slowly turning human due to a traitor’s injections—he unleashes his ultimate weapon: Ailiska, the 8-eyed King of the First Era, and Oolka's own blood-ancestor. In a world where the moon is a weapon and history is a lie, Oolka must master the First Art before the rotating castle of the enemy crushes the last of the human spirit.

Traumatized Female Lead. I repeat a traumatized female lead. After the death of her mother, Aria Dawson is left shattered. Her estranged father suddenly steps in, pretending he wants to take care of her in her weakest moment. But all of it is a lie. He only takes her in to replace her stepsister in an arranged marriage a deal made to save his collapsing company. And the groom she’s being thrown to is the rumored ugly womanzier, Adrian Sterling, the young Master of the sterling family, a man no one has ever seen before. On the other side, Adrian is also forced into the marriage by his grandfather. From the moment he hears Aria agreed to it, he develops a harsh hatred for her. In his eyes, she must be cheap and desperate to marry a stranger for benefits. He refuses to look at her, speak to her, or treat her like a wife. But he doesn't know Aria is not just quiet she is traumatized to the core. Nightmares, fear, and the weight of her mother’s death follow her everywhere. And as time passes, the truth begins to crack through Adrian’s coldness. He starts to notice her trembling hands, her silent tears, the way she flinches at loud sounds, and slowly realizes she never wanted this marriage either. She’s not cheap. She’s not scheming. She’s broken… and he was breaking her even more. With time Adrian finds himself falling in love, slowly and against his own will. And when danger from her past resurfaces threatening to destroy her completely, Adrian becomes the only shield she has left. He doesn’t understand it at first. Why he gets furious seeing her cry. Why the idea of losing her makes his chest tighten painfully. All he knows is that for the first time… protecting her feels like the only thing that matters.

Hyperthymesia. Those with this condition can remember every detail of their lives from something as significant as the world’s turning point to something as small and as insignificant as a minor fleeting thought. They cannot forget and their thirst for knowledge allows them to be considered genius in some senses. Legend has it that Ji Yushi was this kind of genius. In addition, it was said that he was gay and very beautiful. As soon as the news that he was going to support Tianqiong’s seventh squad broke out, it sent everyone buzzing. Everyone knew that the captain of the seventh squad, Song Qinglan, was a hoodlum and deeply homophobic. He not only relied on his super-powerful abilities to become the dark horse on the battlefield in less than two years, but he also hates it when those at the top forces a flower vase* into his squad. Sure enough, Song Qinglan announced in front of everyone, “Useful? Us brothers are going out there working ourselves to the bone, we don’t need a little genius who can only speedread quantum waves!” Later. The squad was forced into a dire situation during their mission. That beautiful little genius calmly continued, every gunfire hitting the mark, his fighting power peaking. Song Qinglan begged in front of everyone, “Adviser Ji, stay.” In the end, he added, “I’ll work myself to the bone for you.” ***** Ji Yushi had a secret. He would often be awake at night, suffering from memory overload and recurring nightmares. There was only one thing that could let him fall asleep peacefully. And that was Song Qinglan. *Flower vase: Someone who only looks pretty but can’t amount to much ****************** This novel is not mine but I just love it too much wuwuwu

In Dwarkam, people are not born equal. Some are born Halocrats, wrapped in power and worship. Some are born Gutterborn, taught to keep their heads down and their mouths shut. Zane Atlas was a Gutterborn. Eighteen years old. Hungry. Beaten. Invisible. The world taught him one rule early: Filth shouldn’t look up. When the Golden Slab descended from the sky, it gave power to those who caressed it. Most gained skills. Some gained status. Many gained hope. Zane gained something else. Something that was never meant to awaken. Something that watches before it judges. Something that acts only when survival is at stake. [ Conflux System ] It does not reward obedience. It grows through choices. And it can merge anything Zane owns… including his body, his instincts, and his will to survive. Now Zane walks a thin line between staying alive and being discovered. Between obeying a world that hates him and becoming something it must erase. The churches are watching. The crowns are stirring. The monsters are waking. And Zane is learning one terrifying truth: Sometimes, being chosen is worse than being powerless. ——— ——— ——— Support Me - ko-fi.com/khyaal Join My Discord For Reference Arts and much more - https://discord.gg/zmUcswM2N5

In a world where kingdoms fight for power, resources are scarce, and monsters terrorize forests, swamps, and forgotten lands, survival is a dangerous game. Humans, elves, dwarves, vampires, and werewolves coexist amid ancient wars, deep inequalities, and scars that never truly heal. Akel is a young mercenary of few words, known for his red eyes and an ability that defies the ordinary. Reserved and distrustful, he carries a dark past that he would rather keep buried, revealing only what is necessary to move forward. In cities where danger lurks in every shadow, no one can hide everything forever. As monsters and men struggle for power and survival, Akel will have to face not only external enemies, but also the dark secrets threatening to consume him from within. In a world where a blade alone is not enough to guarantee survival, the true challenge will be discovering who to trust and how far he is willing to go to survive.

When the sky tore open, they descended from the heavens like angels. They descended in silence—radiant, merciless, inevitable. One by one, every human on Earth was taken. No explanations. No mercy. No resistance that mattered. Entire cities vanished overnight, lifted into blinding light as if humanity were nothing more than livestock being harvested. Everyone was taken. Everyone except Marion. He does not know why or how he managed to escape. He only knows that moments after the last human vanished, the Earth itself began to die. Oceans boiled. Continents fractured. The sky burned. And as the planet that birthed him shattered into ash, Marion escaped alone into the cold abyss of space. Now he drifts through a universe that feels far too vast—and far too deliberate. Fate did not make a mistake. Marion was spared. Abandoned. Tested. In a cosmos ruled by incomprehensible beings obsessed with purity, evolution, and divine order, Marion begins a journey through ruined worlds, failed creations, and civilizations that were judged… and erased. Because everyone is searching for something. Not faith. Not goodness. Perfection. And Marion is no different.

Apart from the world humans live in, there used to be another world. Everyone in that world lived in perfect peace and aside that, they all possessed a supernatural object called an onyx and with it they able to manifest supernatural abilities. Though different- whether powerful or weak, rich or poor- they accepted their differences and lived together in perfect peace. Well, not until a ruler from a different world far beyond the human world and the second world planned to destroy the peace the two world lived in and rule them all together in order to prove his superiority over everyone and that there was no other being as powerful and mighty as he is. He attacked the second world first since it was in that world where supernatural beings lived. At first he tried to make them surrender to him and accept his leadership over them but they refused to do so and fought against him which made him delighted and also fought back. Many lives were lost during that war which lasted over 400 years. Others were taken into captive and at a point it felt like all hope was lost. Well, not until a prophecy about Kimado's defeat was revealed. Not more than 5 years later, someone managed to escape from that world into the human world with something that changed the fate and lives of humans. Now, it was up to the humans to make the prophecy come true.

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! Note: The novel is a gritty version of the typical hunter/awakener novels with a beast twist, which I hope you will enjoy Discord Server: https://discord.gg/c34nURr72W P.S.

“The Eternal Throne” is not a tale of salvation… it’s a record of blood written across a world tearing apart. When the Drift strikes, the earth does not just swallow cities—it shatters faith, silences the skies, and unleashes the beasts of chaos from the fractures of creation. Amid the ruins rises a young man marked by the four elements, and every power he awakens bleeds away a piece of his humanity. Here, magic comes at no free cost. Every victory demands memory, every battle closes with a wound that never heals, and every step toward the throne is paid for in blood. By his side stand allies as dangerous as his enemies: a shadow carrying a deadly secret, a foreign light revealing the darkness… and facing them are Demon Emperors who seek not dominion—but to rewrite creation itself. This is an epic where: Swords are blessed in blood, and spells are cast amid falling bones. Love is tested as faces vanish from memory. Heroism asks the ultimate question: do you deserve to survive if you lose yourself in the process? “The Eternal Throne” is a story of a world slaughtered to endure, and heroes who do not triumph—they pay the ultimate price. The only question remains: how much blood must be spilled to deserve to survive?

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.

A secret long buried now claws its way into the light, threatening to unravel everything she thought she knew about her blood, her family… and herself. As deception coils around her and every truth turns to ash, Grace must face a haunting choice: protect the lie that keeps her kingdom safe, or uncover the truth that could destroy it— and her along with it.

#VillainDad #CuteProtagonist #Ghosts #Misunderstanding #Transmigration #SmartMC Mira realized two things the moment she woke up in the body of a nameless orphan in a fantasy novel: 1. She is a disposable "shrimp" destined to die in the crossfire of the main characters. 2. She is the only person in this world who can see the screaming, terrifying ghosts that haunt every corner of the empire. Tortured by the wails of the dead, Mira finds only one source of silence: Duke Kaelus von Nacht. Known as the "Dark Lord" and the "Emperor's Sword," Kaelus is a man so ruthless and soaked in bloodlust that even the ghosts are terrified to go near him. To the world, he is a monster. But to Mira, he is a walking, talking pair of noise-canceling headphones. Desperate for a good night's sleep, Mira clings to him, acting like a naive, affectionate child to secure her place by his side. She succeeds, but she miscalculated. Kaelus didn't adopt her out of kindness. He needed a disposable child to act as 'live bait' for the assassins targeting him. Now named Seraphina, she must navigate a deadly game of survival. She thinks she is using him as a ghost shield. He thinks she is a fearless prodigy who loves him. As Seraphina munches on poison berries and naps through ambushes to avoid seeing spirits, the cold-blooded Duke starts to ask the wrong questions. "Why does she only sleep when I am holding her?" "Why does she stare into space with such disdain?" "Is it possible... that I am a good father?" Spoiler: He is not. But he’s about to destroy an entire kingdom because someone woke her up. --- ### Excerpt "Your Highness, the Archduke," the aide whispered, trembling hard to cover his laughter from bursting out. "The child... she is clinging to your leg again." Kaelus looked down. The tiny creature known as Seraphina was attached to his calf like a barnacle, drooling on his pristine military trousers. "She is fearless," Kaelus murmured, misinterpreting her desperate need for his ghost-repelling aura as familial affection. "The assassins are approaching, yet she seeks comfort only in the eye of the storm. She is the perfect bait." Seraphina, currently trying to avoid eye contact with a headless ghost hovering three feet away, squeezed her eyes shut. 'Just don't move. If I let go, the headless guy will ask me where his nose is again.' "Sir," the aide hesitated. "She's... eating your cloak." "Let her eat," Kaelus commanded, drawing his sword. "Whatever she wants, she gets. Except for freedom."
