She was floating.. no, hanging! On what?! She struggled to get back on her feet but was pulled into something so.. hard and warm. And It smelt so damn good... She tried looking back to see what was holding her but the 'thing' wasn't having it. She looked down to see a very large pair of strong and hairy arms, wrapped around her torso, sending jolts of unexpected pleasure to her nether region. "Let me go, you dumb brute!!" She screamed, squirming in his arms, trying to slip out of his unyielding grip but stopped when she realized his grip was getting tighter. "What is this?! Tell him I do not want him! I reject mphh..." Her words were cut off by one of the men surrounding her. "I'll only release you so long as you promise to listen to 'us'." The man holding her said. Who were the 'us' he mentioned? They were none other than the three sons of the Alpha. And I... Who was suddenly caught by them, was an Omega. They wanted to talk, huh? Well, so be it. There was only so much an Omega like her could do anyway. "Fine," she said, relaxing her stance. "But you have to give me some space. Please," "Not a chance, princess," he said, his face bearing a smug that made her sigh in annoyance. "Fine," she said and he relaxed his grip on her, giving her a chance to at least stand to her feet. As soon as she stood firmly on her feet, she looked up at all three of them and the most crazy thing happened. She heard her wolf purr in her mind. 'MATE' What? ************ Bethany Sage. Your average everyday Omega, had never really liked her average, mediocre life. She loved the peace but had always been one to love more.. She had been envious of Audrey-The Beta's beloved and only daughter-whom everyone envisions to be the future Luna of Black River Pack.

But of course, Selene-The Moon Goddess-has never been one to do things the normal way.. including assigning a mate..or mates..

When Elara Myles is found dead on the shore of Crescent Lake—her body drained of warmth and tinted blue—those who loved her are left shattered and suspicious. Her former lover, Alec Rowan, discovers a strange pattern in his old photographs: a blue silhouette haunting Elara long before her death. Her best friend, Mara Hale, carries the guilt of ignoring Elara’s growing fear of cold whispers and shadowy visits before dawn. As Alec and Mara investigate, eerie phenomena begin to follow them—mist that moves like thought, voices calling their names, and the same blue fingerprint that marked Elara now appearing on Alec’s skin. They unravel a chilling local legend of The Blue Widow, a sorrow-fed entity that claims the lonely before sunrise. Elara wasn’t the first victim. Alec has already been chosen as the next. Now Alec and Mara must face the truth behind Elara’s death and the creature stalking them—before the blue light of dawn comes for them too.

Born as the fourth prince of a decaying empire, Wu An was raised to be brilliant, polite—and irrelevant. Cast aside by his brothers and ignored by his warlord father, he wore his mask well: the quiet scholar, the forgotten son. But when a strange light drags him from his modern world into a twisted imperial court filled with ancient rites and fractured thrones, he awakens in a body shaped for power—and vengeance. To survive the throne room is to master the battlefield. To win the war is to become a monster. When war erupts in the north, Wu An unleashes a brutal campaign of subterfuge and slaughter. But beneath every victory lies something far more terrifying—visions of monks with bone-bead rosaries, scriptures written in blood, and gods that do not belong to this world. At the heart of the empire is a secret buried in ink and ash, and behind every smile in the capital, a knife waits.

Alex didn't die saving a cat or a child. He died protecting a limited edition strategy novel from a mugger. To him, logistics were life, and people were just inefficient variables. So, when he wakes up as Count Valerius Vermillion—the despised, love-struck villain of the trashy romance novel The Saintess’s Rose—he isn't despairing over his exile. He is relieved. Banished to the "Hinterlands of Nibelung," a forest teeming with monsters and ancient ruins, the original Valerius was supposed to die a pathetic, off-screen death. But Alex sees something else. He sees a land untouched by the incompetence of the romance protagonist. He sees resources. He sees a foundation. Armed with a [Sovereign System] that sells blueprints instead of potions, Alex ignores the original plot entirely. The Hero Prince is fighting duels? Alex is digging trenches. The Saintess is crying about destiny? Alex is smelting iron. The Kingdom calls him a reject? Alex calls them targets. By the time the main characters realize the "Villain" is still alive, he won't just have a cabin in the woods. He will have a fortress of iron and blood that threatens to swallow their fairy tale whole.

Lucien Klein never meant to fall for Kaius Oziel. It just happened one day in college and lingered long even after they graduated, a slow burning ache he never quite managed to shake. It wasn’t serious at first, just a harmless crush, until he just found himself drawn to him every single day. Lucien longed and hoped that one day somehow, Kaius will finally see him. Yet hope is a dangerous thing and longing breeds heartbreak. Kaius’s heart already belongs to Julian, his long-term boyfriend and Lucien knows he is nothing more than a shadow at the edge of their story. Every day was pretty much the same for Lucien until one night changed everything. A night that led into a messy cycle of love, one that clings to betrayal and toxic devotion and one that endures in self-sacrificing, hopeful longing. On the evening of his birthday, Lucien makes a simple, devastating wish: to be chosen, just once, by the boy he’s always loved. Caught between aching hope and shattering reality, Lucien Klein must finally decide whether surrender means losing the only love he’s ever wanted, or saving the only person he still can: himself.

“The boogeyman of Outer Gods, protector of Earth, humanity’s last stand—Miratheris’s son has returned.” I was drowning in sloth. The color of life had drained from my eyes, leaving only shades of grey. Doing anything felt like punishment. Looking for a job? A laughable idea. I did everything I could to stay disconnected from reality. Gambling. Drinking. Even suicidal stunts. Anything to escape the numbness that clawed at my mind for even a second. But everything comes at a cost. I abandoned my family. Broke the heart of the only woman who ever loved me. And wasted every damn day like it didn’t matter. I became the kind of man society throws out with the trash. But life didn’t spare me. Not even when I hit rock bottom. Deceived, shackled, and sold into another world— I spent the rest of my days as a slave. Forced to fight monsters ripped straight out of myth. At the very end, all I could do… was wish. Just one more chance. One shot to make things right. … Born a prodigy, Ashen Hart moved through life like a golden boy. What others worked for, he mastered with ease. At first, it felt like a blessing. The validation, pride, and accomplishment felt sweet. But even honey spoils when you’re drowning in it. The more success he tasted, the more hollow it all became. And when a mysterious power awakened within him, letting him see moments into the future— The world lost all color. And then all meaning… Nothing could surprise him. Nothing could move him. He spiraled. Ashen threw it all away—ambition, love, purpose— and embraced the slow death of apathy. But fate wasn’t done with him. Kidnapped by a shadowy organization and forced into a hidden war, he learned the brutal truth: he wasn’t special. He was fodder. Cannon meat to delay the inevitable. But somewhere, buried beneath sloth and cynicism, the genius stirred. The apathy rotted away. And Ashen Hart, the failure, became Ashen Hart, the wretched. The unkillable. From a discarded pawn to the final hope of mankind. And when it was over—when even the gods had fallen— he was left alone. At his dying breath, the Earth’s spirit, Miratheris, answered his plea. She rewound time, giving him one last shot. But not without a price. She kept his memories intact… and delayed their return just enough so his younger self could bear the weight. Ashen’s second life begins now— and the monsters, both within and beyond, are about to learn what regret truly feels like. ═══⟲══════⟲══════⟲═══ This book was previously titled The Second Coming of Tranquility (TSCOT).

As the story progresses, he will unlock and master multiple affinities, each adding a unique blend to his path.

Julia’s life has always been ordinary — until her father falls gravely ill with kidney failure, leaving her desperate and out of options. To save him, she assumes the identity of a wealthy heiress, stepping into the glittering, ruthless world of high society.

A hidden pregnancy threatens to upend everything, while group pampering, high-stakes drama, and social scandals push them to their limits. Alan will stop at nothing to win her back at all costs, and Julia must choose between protecting her secret, saving her father, and surrendering to a love that could consume them both.

Charles Kosonen walked into a hidden bar one night expecting nothing but a good drink. He had only visited on one of his random whims — something to spice up his endlessly boring days as a man born with everything, yet utterly dissatisfied with everything. He quickly found a seat at the bar. Then he noticed a beautiful girl lingering by the stage, chatting with the band like she was their singer. Beautiful, she was, with those brilliant blue eyes, deep as sapphire, and her long black hair flowing carelessly down her back. But in the world he lived in, beauty was always in abundance, and for a pair of eyes so used to gems, even a shining jewel could start to lose its luster. The corner of his mouth lifted into a faint smirk. He'd come for the drinks, as one of his business partners had praised when recommending this place. The singing was merely an extra. Or so he thought. The moment the liquid in his crystal-clear glass touched his lips was when the girl took the stage. The moment the cold sip slid down his throat was when her lips parted. And then she sang. The glass froze in his hand. If an angel could sing, why would she choose to descend into this hidden bar, of all places? The song wasn't a particularly popular one. The band behind her was just C-class amateur. And yet, with her voice alone, she took the song, polished it into a gemstone, and made it hers. He looked around the room. It wasn't just him, but every single man present there that night had their eyes glued to her, their face a mesmerized expression. A decision was made. He would have her under his wing, no matter what it cost.
