He won her in a bidding war. She expected chains. Instead, he offered chaos, and something dangerously close to freedom. Anastasia was raised in the temple, carved from childhood with sacred runes. Each one a blood-soaked tribute to the gods she never chose. A weapon, a symbol, a prize passed from hand to hand, a body to be used and sold. When the temples auction her off, she’s prepared to survive whatever comes next. She’s not prepared for him. Malvor, the God of Chaos, is all smirks and swagger, crowned in mischief and dressed like temptation itself. But beneath the theatrics is a being hiding his own scars. Some emotional, some eternal. He doesn’t want obedience. He wants fire, challenge and most dangerous of all her. And Anastasia? She’s done playing the part of the willing doll. She’s dangerous, defiant, and not afraid to bite the hand that tries to claim her. Now, caught in a realm where illusions have teeth and gods play games with mortal lives, the only thing more reckless than trusting Malvor… is falling for him. This isn’t a love story. It’s healing wrapped in heat. It’s trauma, chaos, and slow, aching desire. It starts with a woman who was never meant to survive. But did. And came back sharper.

On hiatus for a week or two to prepare the final act!! --- Tao Hua's life is fucking miserable, and that misery somehow earns him the title of "Village Disgrace." In order to cope with the awful treatment, he often retreats into words untold, dictated by the flip of a page. These worlds leave him with the dream of escaping this piece of shit town. To his utter dismay, his wish comes true, but not in the way all those fairytales promised. His saviour is a man he becomes enthralled with and whom he names “Lord No-Name.” This male lead is a touchy man with many faces. And for lack of a better word, Tao Hua can’t decide if he’s either the story’s love interest or villain. But the two share a common sentiment. This prince, alike Tao Hua, is also fucking miserable. But arguably worse! And instead of coping like a normal fucking person, he does the opposite. He doesn't escape. He doesn't cope. He just tries to fight against the already fated truth of his demise. 0/10, worst prince ever written. Misery aside, this fateful encounter will force Tao Hua to make a choice, leaving him with only one question: "What was one mean-spirited beast to a town of people who despise a beauty's entire existence?" ──── ୨୧ ──── Beauty and the Thief is a slow-burn, stop to smell the roses, type of novel. That being said, the roses are beautiful, and upon closer observation they’re less floral than once thought. It follows the POV of Tao Hua, as he tries to navigate his new life in a place that actually values him, and the prince of this story’s mood swings. ──── ୨୧ ──── !!!!Disclaimer!!!! EXTREMELY SLOW PACED! Character driven, before plot! This story borrows the premise of Beauty and the Beast, by Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont, relying heavily on the trope while also twisting it to smithereens. The beast element is exchanged for a power dynamic, and the curse differs from the original story. The narration borders on sarcastic and self-aware, while also targeting deeper topics. It often breaks the fourth wall as a stylistic choice. A lot of the work will be edited over time, but the bones will remain the same. ──── ୨୧ ──── There are occasional illustrations littered throughout the novel drawn by me (slowly commissioning to get others done), usually found in the comments! !!CREDIT!! Cover Art by @Sayoto (VGen) Illustrations by me (@meowssey) and zaza (@zazhah) (Both commissioned artists are amazing to work with and I highly recommend their work!)

MY LOVE FROM HELL Synopsis She has no name. No family. No past. For as long as she can remember, she has lived on the streets—feeding from wastebins, sleeping under broken bridges, surviving on scraps the world discarded. Invisible. Unwanted. Forgotten. But the shadows have never forgotten her. Strange eyes follow her in the dark. Whispers crawl into her dreams. And on the night she is almost killed in an alley, a dangerously beautiful stranger appears — cold, commanding, and inhuman. He calls her Celestia. He claims he is her protector. Lucien is powerful, mysterious, and terrifyingly calm. He takes her into a mansion that feels alive and introduces her to beings that are far from human — demon hybrids, a higher vampire, creatures born of darkness. She should run. But she doesn’t. Because for the first time in her life, someone is protecting her. Soon, her nightmares become real. Witches gather in secret covens. Dark angels descend. Higher demons hunt her. She learns a truth that shatters everything: She carries angelic pure blood — a sacred, celestial essence powerful enough to grant dark forces access to Heaven itself if sacrificed. She is not a nobody. She is the key to a war between realms. And the most devastating truth of all? The man she is falling in love with… The man who saved her… The man who swore to protect her… Is the Prince of Hell. Now caught between Heaven and Hell, hunted by witches and demons, rejected by angels, and betrayed by destiny, she must choose who she truly is. A weapon. A sacrifice. Or the girl who dares to love the devil. Because in a war between light and darkness, love may be the most dangerous sin of all. warning:Mature content! Beware!!!

In order to stay alive, Wade—who, through sheer misfortune, ended up as the lord of the Sein Dungeon—had no choice but to turn his domain into the ultimate hellscape: A gate that can’t be opened from this side, A treasure chest that triggers a teleportation, A grueling three-hundred-sixty-five-kilometer trek from the spawn point to the boss room with not a single rest stop, Monster knights with giant bows stationed on both sides of a precarious narrow bridge, Treacherous ambushers lying in wait around blind corners, A revolting latrine-poison pit you’re forced to sample, and a maze of hidden paths… And that’s only the beginning. Within these depths lurk masters like Isshin Ashina, the Crucible Knight, the Fiery Golden Lion, the Blue-Eyed White Dragon, the Scourge Legion, and more—each ready to gift you with “pleasant surprises.” From the Flaming Sword and Wavemother Sickle, to the Bow Swift-Slash Katana, the Oath of Gold and Stone, and Flame, grant me strength—the rewards are as unique as they are tempting, making it impossible to stay mad for long.

"This is a world-first story. The history is the story. Stay with it." The world has ended before. Not in myth. Not in metaphor. It ended completely — gods unmade reality reaching for something they were never meant to hold, and existence corrected itself the only way it knows how. It took fifty thousand years to forget. Another hundred thousand to rebuild. It is about to happen again. This is not one story. It is many — stitched together across millennia, told through the eyes of those who lived inside a world that carries its own wounds forward. A nameless being waking in a summoning circle, learning what it means to exist. A woman who hesitated when she should have fought, and traded a year of her life for knowledge that is quietly unmaking her. A girl in an apothecary being handed a promise she doesn't yet understand. They do not know each other. Not exactly. But the world remembers. It always remembers. Stay long enough and you will see how the threads connect — how every choice echoes, how every name given in love becomes a weight carried forward, how the pattern emerging beneath the history is not a mystery to be solved but a wound that never fully closed. Knowledge is the weapon. History is the scar. And somewhere in the silence between chapters — You will realize you already care.

If you have a problem and no one else can help, pray those Dogs are not your last hope.

Transmigrating as a peerless young master of the Immortal World’s most terrifying clan should have been the ultimate jackpot. Instead, Ye Yun wakes up to a cruel truth: he is nothing more than a scripted villain. A stepping stone carefully prepared for the “chosen ones.” Destined to be humiliated, stripped of everything, and discarded so that countless protagonists can rise. But he refuses to accept that role. With the full weight of the Immortal World’s most feared clan behind him, Ye Yun awakens the Ultimate Villain System. From this moment on, he will hunt the protagonists, plunder their luck, crush their destinies, and rewrite the entire script on his own terms. In a world designed for heroes to win… the greatest villain is about to take everything.

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.
