Marked by a demon’s curse and hunted by bounty hunters, kingdoms, and ancient forces alike, Dot only has one goal: find the man responsible for destroying everything he loved… and make him suffer. But the deeper he goes, the more he realizes the truth — the power inside him isn’t just a curse. It might be the key to ending the world… or saving what’s left of it. In a brutal land where knights fall, gods awaken, and no one is innocent, one broken boy will either become the greatest monster of his age… or the last hope against it. The Redman Game has begun.

In a world ruled by emotions and madness, the coldest mind holds all the cards. But the Witch’s scent growing on him may attract far worse than assassins… A dark, calculating isekai where death is merely another tool for the ultimate strategist.

MAGICLAND is a sprawling fantasy world that balances delicately between the vibrancy of life and the growing shadow of darkness. This universe is home to a remarkable diversity of races, including elves, demons, humans, demihumans, and dwarves, among others. It combines elements of medieval and modern technology, magic and fantastic creatures. The world is made up of five main continents that are in constant conflict, mainly due to demonic influence. After a century of peace achieved through heroic sacrifices, an ancient evil once again threatens stability. In this work, we will focus our attention on the prestigious Arcanum Bellator Academy. The ARCANUM BELLATOR ACADEMY is an institution located in the City of Valoria, on the continent of AETHORIA (the human continent), within the defenses of Fort Dawnshield. Founded 80 years ago by Queen Elara Dawnshield I, its mission is to prepare elite warriors in the fusion of martial skills and arcane knowledge, with the aim of facing future demonic threats. Our protagonist is Phantsin Dawnfire. Phantsin is a 13-year-old boy who was orphaned at the age of 5, after the murder of his parents, both renowned Dawnblades knight-mages, in a demonic ambush. He and his little sister, Flower, were taken in by the enigmatic noble Master Seamo. Since then, he has enjoyed a comfortable and privileged life, although marked by trauma and the urgent need to become strong. Phantsin hides a grave secret: within him resides a purple fire, a form of forbidden magic linked to the Void (the energy of the Great Demon). His greatest fear is being discovered, since the Inquisition would condemn him to death. His main motivation is to protect his sister Flower, the only family he has left. Throughout this narrative, we will explore dramas, conflicts, friendships, romances, confrontations, investigations, betrayals, comic moments and plot twists. Likewise, NSFW topics will be discussed in a subtle and respectful way. This journey does not seek the acquisition of power, but rather learning control over it and understanding its purpose. In the Arcanum Bellator, Phantsin will be seen as an outcast: a child prodigy surrounded by older, more experienced students, both in magic and political matters. You will face feelings of resentment, admiration, and immense pressure to perform at the highest level. His innate talent will clash with a structured teaching approach by instructors who fear his unpredictable fire. Its central conflict is internal: revenge versus protection. Will he transform into a weapon of pure destruction or learn to use his fire as a constructive and protective force, truly honoring his parents' legacy?

Warning: This book contains a large number of very hot adult scenes!(18+ ONLY) *PLEASE DON'T READ IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO INTENSE INTIMATE SCENES* "Say you're ours." Nicholas's hand tightened around my throat....not choking, just holding, reminding me who owned every breath I took. His silver eyes burned into mine, relentless and demanding. "Say it, Lilith." "I'm yours," I whispered, and the words tasted like surrender and salvation all at once. "Louder." Sebastian's voice was dark silk behind me, his massive body pressed against my back, his hands bruising my hips. "We want to hear you scream it." Before I could answer, Lucian slammed into me from behind, filling me so completely I saw stars. The stretch, the fullness, the overwhelming sensation of being claimed....it stole every thought from my mind. "I'm....." I tried to speak, but then Nicholas was lifting my leg, positioning himself, and suddenly he was pushing inside me from the front, and I was being taken by both of them at once. Too much. Too full. Too intense. "Breathe," Nicholas commanded against my lips, but breathing was impossible when they were both moving, finding a rhythm that had me trembling violently between them. "I'm yours!" The confession finally tore from my throat as Lucian's mouth found that sensitive spot on my neck, teeth scraping, threatening to mark me permanently. "I'm yours, I'm yours, I'm yours...." "Good girl," all three of them growled in unison. "Now prove it." Lilith Thorne is drowning. Her father, Beta of Shadowmere Pack....was murdered six months ago. Her mother overdosed on wolfsbane and lies comatose. Her boyfriend found his true mate and threw her away like garbage. And she's wolfless.....a reject in wolf society, unable to shift, worthless and invisible. With eviction looming and hospital bills crushing her, Lilith makes a desperate choice: enter the Rite, an ancient ritual where unmated Alphas can claim women for one night in exchange for gold. But she's not paired with just any Alphas. She's chosen by Lucian, Nicholas, and Sebastian Blackwood.....the Cursed Alpha Kings. Triplets cursed by the Moon Goddess to find their true mate before they turn 26, or lose themselves to their wolves forever. They have three months left. What starts as a transaction becomes an obsession. The moment they touch her, their curse quiets. Their wolves recognize something in her. And they can't let her go. But Lilith is not what she seems. She's the last daughter of the most powerful witch bloodline in existence, her magic suppressed since birth. And when that magic awakens, it will change everything. When she finally learns the truth....that breaking their curse means taking it upon herself....Lilith makes a choice that will change everything. She sacrifices herself to save them, dying in their arms while they scream her name. But death isn't the end. It's only the beginning. And when she rises from the ashes, marked by death and wielding powers she never imagined, she won't be the same broken girl who walked into the Rite. She'll be something far more dangerous. Their mate. Their queen. Their salvation. Or their destruction. Part 1: THE CLAIMING How far would you fall for three kings who worship you like a religion and claim you like a conquest? Part 2: THE RESURRECTION How dark would you become to reclaim what death stole from you? The Mating Ritual is a dark paranormal romance featuring possessive alphas, intense sexual content, a strong but broken heroine discovering her power, found family, fated mates, and a love so consuming it transcends death itself.

Previously, it was called Reincarnated as a Supernatural Horror Entity. Jack, a content creator for mystery, horror, and conspiracy stories, died and was reborn as a formless ghost. He acquired the system-panel like ability to get stronger. He could earn new supernatural traits. And he could even evolve and gain new incarnations. The problem was... he was now in an alternate Earth. The one that was still in the Industrial Revolution Era. The one with cursed steam engines, monster-infested sea exploration, mysterious pirates, supernatural powers, mythical creatures, demonic entities, and completely different geography. Jack had to adapt and survive. Thus, the legends of the Circle of Jacks appeared in that world. Transcendent incarnations of Jack made their impacts in this new world... o Jack Mystery, the mysterious specter, o Judge Jack, the rakshasa of judgement, o Jack Night, the steamrune engineer and treasure hunter, o Racer Jack, the kamaitachi speedster vigilante, and o Jack Lantern, the devil puppet who decided to be a bizarre puppeteer.
