"What are you thinking about?" "I'm thinking about a guy." Jun Mo stopped in the middle of a deep kiss and sighed. His lips began to form a smile, but his fierce glare said otherwise. Possessiveness and jealousy spread across his sculpted face. "Will you tell me his name?" His easygoing and languid voice reached her ears. "Why?" "So that I can kill him."

“I swear it! I swear on the name of the Allfather, I will murder all of you! Rip you to shreds and feast on your insides. Can you hear me!? And his ravens will witness me conquer the North while you roll in your graves. Your stay in the underworld will not be a joyous one.” Ragnar’s nails sank deep into his skin, causing a wound that blended perfectly with the hole of the ripped-out eye. ᛖᚡᛖᚱᛚᚨᛋᛏᛁᚾᚷ ᚹᚨᚱ× ᚨ ᛋᚨᚷᚨ ᚠᚱᛟᛗ ᛏᚺᛖ ᚾᛟᚱᛏᚺ Ragnar was born with a rare mutation that gave him two magic types instead of one. Unfortunately, his mana pool was laughably small. He couldn't even tell when he was using magic; it would activate on its own without any visible changes besides leaving him incredibly tired a few seconds after his mana pool was completely depleted. Just as he was close to becoming an adult and his twelfth winter started, his village was attacked, his best friend betrayed him, and his father died. 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.

"His father taught him to never yield. The heavens taught him otherwise. Gen is the son of the Invincible Immortal Jiang, raised on absolute power and absolute pride. In a world where cultivators command reality through the six Wheels of Destiny, Gen's unbreakable will made him a prodigy—and a fool." "When celestial enforcers descend to punish humanity's arrogance, Gen's world of security shatters in a single day. Cast into a desperate five-year mission to prevent annihilation, he charges forward like the arrogant genius he's always been—turning allies into enemies, pushing his closest friend Liang into the arms of the corrupt Dark Wheels, and treating the end of the world as his personal proving ground." "A duel with A being that should have killed him. A betrayal that cuts deeper than any blade. A defeat so complete it cracks his soul in ways cultivation cannot heal. For the first time in his life, Gen can't fight his way out."

Viola was once the pride of her pack, destined to rise above everyone on the day she received her wolf. Instead, that day marked her fall. She had been the villain in countless stories, untouchable and adored by the Alpha heir, until the night her wolf was supposed to awaken, and fate played its cruelest joke. She fell to the lowest rank in her pack, rejected by her sworn mate. Stripped of status, strength, and even her wolf, she was forced to live a life worse than that of an omega. Imprisoned and alone, Viola’s only hope of escape lay in finding her wolf, or her fated mate. Only, a dark past kept her powers dormant… and her fated mate didn’t want her. Sebastian Kade is powerful, ruthless, and chained to a past he refuses to release. Viola Linden does not belong in his world, and he wants her gone. Fate, however, disagrees. This fragile, stubborn girl refuses to leave his orbit. He does not believe in love. He does not want her. He has already lost too much. An Alpha who swore off weakness, hardened by loss and haunted by a prophecy that feels more like a curse, Sebastian is certain he will never allow another woman into his life. But the Moon Goddess is rarely kind. Viola carries something ancient within her, something dangerous, something powerful enough to defy him. Hate twists into desire. Desire ignites into fierce passion. And passion threatens to become love. But when Sebastian discovers what Viola truly carries within her, will it save him… or destroy everything he’s built? ~~~ WARNING: MATURE CONTENT! #Slow burn #Spicy #Morally Gray ML #Adventure #Angst Discord server: https://discord.gg/VMM9DXw3yP

WARNING: ITS A 18+ BOOK Heena stretched on the warm sand, sipping coconut water. Finally, peace. No scheming heroines, no brooding male leads—just her and the ocean. “HEENA! MOTHER! I FOUND YOU!” Her eye twitched. Not now. Floating above the beach was a golden lion with sparkling wings. “System 547,” she said, gritting her teeth. “I’m on vacation.” “But the worlds are collapsing! Male leads are going crazy! Villainesses are dying! White lotus heroines are ruining everything!” “Not my problem.” “You’re the Black Lotus! Only you can fix this!” “Exactly why I deserve a vacation.” “No rules! Slap them, seduce them, team up with the villainess—anything!” Heena sipped her coconut. “If I say yes, triple points, rare items from every world, and six months vacation after.” “Done! Anything!” the lion shouted, tail wagging. Heena stood, brushing sand off. “Fine. Show me these broken male leads.” Her smirk was dangerous. . . . The portal threw Heena onto cold marble floors. Her head spun as чуж memories flooded in. Empress Celeste Ravencourt. Five husbands. A dying empire. “Great,” Heena muttered. “I’m the villain.” A tiny golden lion appeared beside her. “Welcome to World 12! You’re married to five powerful men who all hate you. They’re meeting tonight to poison you and crown the heroine instead.” “Let me guess,” Heena sighed. “White lotus?” “Lady Seraphina. Sweet, kind, system-backed. They’re all in love with her.” Heena rubbed her temples. The body was weak, starved, exhausted. No wonder Celeste died so easily. “Fine,” she said, pulling off the heavy jewelry. “That empress is dead. I’m not.” She chose a simple dark dress, tied her hair up, and met her reflection. The sadness vanished. Confidence took its place. At dinner, five men waited—cold, powerful, deadly handsome. Warriors, priests, generals, spies. Every one of them wanted her gone. Wine was poured into her glass. Poisoned. Obvious. They watched her closely. Heena lifted the glass, smiling lightly. “To new beginnings.” She drank it all. The silence cracked. Nothing happened. Their faces changed—shock, fear, disbelief. Heena leaned back, calm and smiling. “Now,” she said softly, “which one of you thought killing me would be that easy?” AUTHORS NOTE: Thank you so much for all the support!

The Legend of Jack the Colossal Born human in a world of Titans. Destined to become a legend among giants. In an age when the blood of the ancient Greek gods still courses through the veins of towering beings, strength is the law, power is the measure of worth, and weakness is a sin that cannot be forgiven. And then there is Jack. Born with the body of an ordinary human in a world ruled by colossal descendants of the Titans, Jack is an abomination in the eyes of his kind. He possesses neither their towering stature nor their monstrous strength. To the Colossals, he is less than nothing. To his own bloodline, he is a disgrace. Only his mother sees him as something worth loving. But when his own family tears her away from him, Jack loses the last person who ever made him feel he belonged. Stripped of his home, his family, and the only love he has ever known, the nameless boy is left with nothing but a heart full of grief and a world that wishes he had never been born. Until fate casts him into another realm. A world beyond the reach of the ancient Titans. A land where monstrous beasts roam untamed, where the strong carve their names into history, and where even the weakest soul can rise beyond the limits of its birth. For the first time, Jack discovers that his human body is not the curse he once believed it to be. In this strange new world, he finds the strength to survive, the courage to fight, and companions who see him as more than the weakness written into his blood. He earns a name. He finds a purpose. And slowly, the boy whom giants once trampled beneath their feet begins to become something even they might fear. But the past has a long memory. As Jack's legend grows, the world that cast him aside draws ever closer. The wounds of his childhood remain unhealed, and the family that stole everything from him may soon learn what their cruelty has created. Now, caught between the world that broke him and the world that gave him a reason to live, Jack must make a choice. Will he return to the land of the Titans and bring his former family to its knees? Or will he risk everything he has gained to protect the only home that has ever truly accepted him? Some legends are born from the blood of gods. Others are forged by a human heart that refuses to kneel before them.

History remembers heroes. The wizarding world remembers the boy who lived — Harry Potter — the wizard who defeated Lord Voldemort and ended the darkest war in magical history. For years after the war, peace returned to the ancient halls of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Students laughed in its corridors, magic echoed through its classrooms, and the world slowly began to heal. But history has a strange habit. It never truly stays in the past. Because legends leave shadows behind. And sometimes those shadows fall upon the next generation. For Albus Severus Potter — the son of the greatest wizard of his age — the world is not a story of victory. It is a story of expectation. Of whispers in hallways. Of a name that feels heavier every year. But when Albus forms an unlikely friendship with Scorpius Malfoy, the son of a family once feared throughout the wizarding world, something begins to change. Together they will discover a secret buried deep within the magical world. A secret that should have remained forgotten. A secret capable of breaking the most powerful force in existence: Time itself. And when time begins to fracture… The past, present, and future will collide. Because some mistakes cannot be undone. And some legacies refuse to die. ---
