After his father's death and his best friend's betrayal, Ragnar swore he would murder everyone involved in the plot that took everything from him and then force them to watch from the afterlife as he achieved their dream of taking over the North.

Suits: The Win Rate System Waking up in the body of a Harvard Law student with a gamified "System" was a second chance Scott Roden didn't expect. While Mike Ross relies on a photographic memory and fraud, Scott relies on a Win Rate Calculator and a Blackmail Archive to dominate the legal world. Rejected by Harvey Specter, Scott chooses a different path: turning the overlooked Louis Litt into a legend and proving that in a firm of gamblers, the man who calculates the odds always wins.

An ancient prophecy once said that … When the Crown falls from the sky, and blood flows beneath the thorns, the Heir without memory shall walk among the ashes. The Shield will rise before the King, for no throne survives without protection. The Quill shall sing what time has erased, and its words will carve the paths. The Sword will be born from ancient fire, a dragon marked to slay the Crown. The Arrow shall aim at the broken horizon, and foresee the war before it erupts. The Grace shall touch the world’s wounds, but cannot heal them all. If the Sword hesitates, if the fire refuses to obey the blood, then the Six Marks shall unite. And the world shall be judged. Note from the Author: This biography is temporary and will be updated soon. This is my very first book, so I kindly ask for your understanding and patience. I promise the story and writing will improve over time, and I hope you’ll enjoy the journey as it grows.

I knew this story. I had read it years ago—the tale of two extraordinary princesses, Seraphina and Ariella, and Prince Alexander of Eldoria. I knew who would fall in love. I knew who would betray whom. And I knew the love triangle would end in tragedy. What I didn't know was that one day, I would wake up inside that very story. Now I'm Elysia, a princess of Astoria with a strange ability to communicate with magical creatures. Unfortunately, I have no memory of my life as Elysia—and the world I'm living in isn't following the story I remember. Alexander is no longer the prince I once knew from the novel. He's making choices of his own, and somehow I've become tangled in his plans to hunt Aetheron, the feared King of Monsters. Then I meet Lord Killian Ravenscroft. He's intelligent, mysterious, and far too interested in the things I don't understand about this world. And somehow, the man who should be my greatest enemy becomes the one person I can't stop thinking about. The more I try to change the story, the more it changes around me. Alexander wants me to stay. The King of Monsters wants something from me. And I? I've already chosen the one man I was never supposed to love. My prince. My weredragon. But if I know how this story ends, why has everything already gone wrong? And this time, I'm the one who might not survive the ending.

[Hidebound Older Man VS Two-Faced Heiress: Daddy-Type + Seductress + An Old House on Fire] Everyone in Aethelgard says, a man should marry a woman from the West Family. The eldest daughter of the West Family is gentle and virtuous, a sought-after prize in high society. On the eve of her engagement. Her fiancé cheated on her. Willow West, having played the good girl for so long, decides she's done pretending. Fueled by alcohol, she finds a handsome man. Just one wall away from the scumbag ex and his mistress. The next day, she wakes up to her world collapsing. She had slept with the circle's famous 'older man'—Aiden Pierce, her dear uncle's best friend. Her impression of Aiden Pierce wasn't very good. Years ago, when she was having her first romance, she had tried to sneak a kiss with her young boyfriend, only for Aiden Pierce to report her to her uncle before their lips could even meet. The Aiden Pierce of today is even more dull—celibate and restrained, with everyone from his secretary to his assistant being male, and zero romantic scandals to his name. He's nothing short of a hidebound traditionalist! Willow West wants to escape. Aiden Pierce's well-defined hand grips her chin. "Miss West, a man's virtue is still virtue. You must take responsibility for me." * Aiden Pierce, who had practiced self-restraint for thirty years, was captured by Willow West—a woman gentle and demure in public, yet passionate and daring in private. Everyone thought Willow West was a good girl. Only Aiden Pierce knew that behind closed doors, the young woman not only smoked and drank but was also a cool, badass biker. * The assistant has recently noticed a change in the workaholic President Pierce. Not only is he hitting the gym three times a week, but his style has also shifted from uniform high-end suits to a different streetwear brand for every day of the week. His once stern and unsmiling face now frequently breaks into a smile. Even his eternally unchanged screensaver has been replaced. It's now a picture of a sexy, wavy-haired beauty in a black biker suit, holding a cigarette and sitting on a motorcycle!
