betrayal

{A/N: Hey Guys, Thanks for clicking on my work! Just wanted to clarify that an average chapter for the WN is 2000-3500 words, and the average word count for WebNovel chapters is 1000-1050. Please bear that in mind when you see a low chapter count :) Thanks!} He mastered science. Now he must rewrite magic. When Kael Arin, a scientist from Earth, awakens in a world ruled by Aether, he brings with him the one thing this realm has never known: reason. Gifted with the mysterious Aether Codex, a System that translates scientific understanding into magical power, Kael enters Aetherion Academy, where bloodlines define worth, and knowledge is bound by superstition. As a commoner surrounded by noble heirs, Kael’s logic-driven magic defies the very foundation of the arcane world, a world where emotion is power and tradition is law. His arrival at Aetherion Academy marks the first ripple in an age-old balance, drawing the eyes of those who would control him… and those who would destroy him. Guided by curiosity and haunted by the whispers of the Aether Codex, a System that should not exist, Kael’s pursuit of understanding begins to uncover truths long buried by history and faith alike. But knowledge stirs more than enlightenment. Beyond the walls of the Academy, forces long dormant begin to awaken. Whispers of war echo across the continents, and shadows move beneath the surface of creation itself. In a realm where magic is born of passion, one man’s logic may be the spark that reignites the end of the world.

Bloodbound Souls: Every Time We Love, the World Ends Every time we fall in love… one of us dies. And the world begins again. She has no memory of him. But the moment their eyes meet, her heart reacts like it has loved him for a lifetime. He looks at her the way a survivor looks at a disaster he has already lived through. Not with hatred. Not even with anger. With exhaustion. Because he remembers everything. He remembers every life where they met. Every life where they fell in love. Every life where the world paid the price. He says she loved him once. He says she betrayed him. He says she killed him. And the terrifying part is… something inside her heart believes him. Bound by matching scars neither of them can explain, they are drawn together by a connection that feels less like fate and more like a curse. The closer they grow, the more fragments of a forgotten past begin to surface — memories of war, sacrifice, betrayal, and a love powerful enough to shake the foundations of reality. But their reunion is not an accident. Someone is watching them. Someone who remembers every timeline where their love began… and how each one ended in catastrophe. Because long ago, in the very first world that ever existed, their love awakened something ancient — a power so overwhelming that reality itself began to collapse. To save existence, the universe created a cruel solution. A cycle. Every time they come too close… one of them dies. And the world resets. Again. And again. And again. But now something is changing. The cycle is breaking. Memories are returning. The force that kept them apart is weakening. And for the first time in countless lifetimes, the choice may finally be theirs. Save the world… or choose each other and watch reality burn. Because some souls are not meant to live happily ever after. Some souls are meant to destroy the world together. And every time they fall in love… the world ends.

Her childhood was forged in shadows, and she was sharpened into a weapon, trained to be a ghost, a killer—an instrument of vengeance. The target: a decorated general who brought down her family. But fate doesn't follow orders. Just as Lara was about to execute her long-planned mission, everything spiraled out of control. A military convoy intercepted her escape route—escorting none other than the general himself. And then came the moment that changed everything. A blinding crash. Screeching tires. Her body was thrown like a ragdoll, then darkness. She had a fleeting recollection of another world, another lifetime where kings ruled the land with an iron fist. But she woke up, and twelve long months had passed.  She did not know where she was or who she was. She remembered nothing. They told her different names. A child with trembling hope whispered, “Mommy, your name is Moira Torres.” Her doctor insisted, “Your admission slip says Larissa Reyes.” A hardened general leaned close and commanded, “Remember who you are. Remember your mission.” Then another general—dangerously calm, incredibly familiar—looked at her as if she mattered and asked, “Can I call you Lara?” The name unlocked something buried deep in her soul. Lara Norse Kromwel. Daughter of General Odin Norse. Empress of the First Empire. But the man who watched her most closely dismissed it with cold certainty. “This is the 21st century,” he said. “What nonsense are you spouting? What Empress? You are my woman. You can only be mine!"

Karl always dreamed of becoming the greatest Magi… but reality slapped him hard. Weak spells, zero combat talents, and a magic rank so low even goblins would laugh at him.

Until one day, everything changed. Karl receives a mysterious offer to join Guild C—a secretive team of High class Magi. Nobody knows why they want someone as "useless" as him. but Karl accepts. And the moment he steps into Guild C, his whole life flips. Treacherous dungeons, cursed monsters, concealed conspiracies, ancient truths… and a power inside Karl that not even he knew existed.

“I hear you would do anything for the right price. If that's the case, then I would like to hire you. How much would you charge?” - Daniel Park, aka Fenrir, knew his reckless decision to earn money would bite him in the ass one day. He just did not expect it to happen so soon. After finally running away from the mafia, all Daniel needed to do was repay his debt to the ‘Den.’ Once he did, he and his brother would be free to live their lives. What he failed to account for was the obsession of the Alpha who had been obsessed with him from a young age. Daniel might have escaped the Den, but he was never able to run away from it. At least, not while the Young Master still had a hold on him. __________ “See, I told you that we are made for each other. No matter where you run and no matter what you do, you will always come back to me. After all, you became an omega because of me, and I became an alpha for your sake.” Young Master Ivan’s sinful voice sounded like melted lust. There was no reasoning with an alpha in rut. In the end, no matter how much Daniel suffered and how far he tried to run, he was bound by the dark obsession of an alpha standing at the top of the food chain. He never had a choice to run in the first place. __________ R18, Smut, Omegaverse, BL, Yaoi, Possessive, Alpha, Dark, BDSM…I don’t want to tag more…

"It seems your other mates caught your scent and are here for you," Edris said quietly as he slipped into his pants, his voice calm but his eyes unreadable. Suddenly shy, I pushed myself upright and moved to stand, instinctively trying to give him space, trying to create distance before questions could form. I had barely taken a step when their presence filled the space. "Going somewhere, mate?" Ronan's voice stopped me in my tracks. My cheeks burned instantly with embarrassment. "No," I said too quickly. "I was not running. I was just trying to give you guys some privacy." Kael stepped closer, slow and deliberate, his fingers already working at the buckle of his belt. "Are you afraid?" "Me? Afraid?" I scoffed, forcing a casual laugh. "No way." I looked away, pretending confidence while my body betrayed me completely. "Really?" Kael murmured. "Because you look like you're shy and wanted to run, mate." "Let her be, she is tired," Edris said in my defense. "Really, brother? You pretend you don't want her when we're together, and then claim her for yourself the moment we are not looking," Kael replied, teasing but tense. Edris's gaze darkened as Kael and Ronan moved closer. "She is mine," Edris mutters, low, tense, as he watches. Kael grins, "She is our mate too. All of us." ---- As the only surviving heir of the Alpha King, Selena Blackthorn thought she had the perfect life. A loving father. A caring Mate. A rare bloodline passed down to her by her family. But she was wrong. After her father’s sudden death, Selena places her trust, her power, and her heart in the hands of the man she believes is her fated Mate. On their wedding day, beneath the Blood Moon, he repays her devotion by rejecting her, shattering their bond, and pushing her from a mountain to her death. She should have stayed dead. Instead, Selena awakens two weeks before the wedding ceremony, reborn with her memories intact and her long-silent wolf finally awake. The truth unravels quickly. The man she loved is her murderer. Her adopted sister is his true mate and accomplice. The life Selena believed was destiny was nothing more than a carefully constructed lie. This time, she is not the obedient Luna they expect. Drawn by a pull she cannot deny, fate leads Selena into the path of three rogue triplets—warriors exiled as boys for a crime they never committed. They are dangerous. Relentless. Untamed. And when the bond snaps into place, it is not gentle. It consumes her. Only then does Selena uncover the truth that has long been buried. The rejection was false. The bond was never real. The triplets are her true mates. Bound by destiny and sharpened by exile, the triplet helps Selena uncover the conspiracy that destroyed her family, stole her crown, and nearly erased her existence. Together, they will burn through lies, bloodlines, and false kings to reclaim what was always hers. This time, Selena will not be used. She will not be silenced. And she will not die quietly. Betrayed by One, Bound to Three is a dark fantasy romance of rebirth, body-positive power, false bonds, fated mates, and a queen who rises from betrayal to claim her throne on her own terms. ---- Trigger Warning: This story contains mature themes intended for adult audiences only.

The Moon Goddess made a mistake— or maybe this was a curse just like everyone says it is. But I always knew deep down that I was never meant to be theirs. They belonged to her. To my twin sister, Chalice, who was sweet. Perfect. Worshipped by the entire pack… and pure venom behind closed doors. The three brothers— Zevran, Kael, and Caelum— hate me with a fire that burns hotter than the bond tying us together. And I know because I see it in their eyes… I feel it in the way their burning touch lingers a second too long. They despise me. Just like everyone else does. But they want me. And no matter how much I try to stay away, the mate bond keeps dragging me back into their world of heat, power, hatred and danger. Maybe, I should leave… I know. But fate plays a cruel game. And as truths unravel and secrets come to light, the triplets— the ones who once despised me— now see me for who I am. Now, they want me— unabashedly. But by the time they realize this, it is a little too late. I’ve been broken by them a little too much. And I am done being anyone’s pawn. ~*~ “We want you, Leilani… we always have. Always would. Please take this as our way of saying sorry. For everything, for not believing you… for letting our judgements be clouded by…” Caelum said softly, his voice trailing off, his breath warm and ticklish against my fingers that he brought up to his lips as his other hand found the warm spot between my thighs. My eyes snagged on his full lips— pink and inviting; But they’d been kissed by another. And I don’t do leftovers. I sighed exasperatedly, shaking my head to rid myself of this pitiful sight and clenching my legs together to force his hands out. He didn’t budge. “No.” I said sharply, my voice coming out stronger than I expected especially with their bodies pressed against mine, and their lips creating sparks across my body. “I’m done. Go back to Chalice… she suits you more than I ever did.” Kael’s voice vibrated through my body as he pressed himself flush against me. His brothers Caelum and Zevran leaned in too, their lips on the shell of my ears, one’s fingers grazing over my taut nipple. “I’ll burn the world, Leilani,” he growled, his voice deep. Threatening. “I’ll burn the entire world, if that’s what it takes to win you back.” “Then I'd like to see you after the world’s been successfully burnt down. Maybe then we’ll have this conversation.” I answered, and with that, I pushed their hands away and leapt off the cupboard. And as I walked out of the kitchen, I felt their eyes drilling holes into my back, hotter than a thousand lasers all at once. But I didn’t falter. I didn’t turn around. I was the monster they’d made.

"When celestial enforcers descend to punish humanity's arrogance, Gen's world of security shatters in a single day.

For the first time in his life, Gen can't fight his way out." "In a genre where emotionless MCs dominate, one story asks a different question: What happens when a cultivator actually breaks—and discovers that true power lies not in never yielding, but in knowing what is worth letting go?"

Corinne was never the princess, just her stand-in, sent to marry Alpha Barrett Locke and end a war. The crown was fake, the vows were lies, but the mate bond that snapped into place the night he marked her was brutally real. He knew she wasn’t the real bride. He claimed her anyway. When the true princess returned, he locked Corinne away to bury the scandal. She escaped carrying his child. Six years later, she returns, not as a decoy, but a self-made powerhouse with an empire of her own and a five-year-old son who has Barrett's eyes. She came for revenge. He sees his mate, his heir, and the bond that never died. This time, he’ll destroy anything to keep them both. One deception started the war between them. One child will finish it.

“You need a wife.” She said. “What makes you think that you are cut out to be my wife?” Oliver asked. The smug smile on his lips was the only indication that he didn’t find her suggestion offensive. “I am not like any of the other women you’ve been with before, Mr. Morton.” Seductively, she let her fingers draw patterns across his chest. “Ms. Sophia, are you aware that you’re playing a dangerous game?” He asked, capturing her fingers that were busily tickling the five o’clock shadow along his jawline. “I am.” But really, was she? But this was not the time to back out now. To second-guess herself. “But are you brave enough to play my game?” She dared, looking him directly in the eyes. Without giving him time to react, she kissed him. Damn! She knew she should stop. This man was her enemy, but her body wouldn’t let her. She missed this. Being wanted. Being desired. Being... No! Not love. This was not love. Oliver saw her as an object. A beautiful woman to conquer, nothing more. And she should feel the same way. No! She could not fall back into his charms. Armed with this realization, she busily let her other hand wander off until she felt it. The hard, metallic weapon that he put aside. Grabbing it, she immediately placed it on his temple, mimicking his action earlier. Then, she gradually pulled her lips away. “Are you gonna kill me now?” The great Mafia Don asked, but she could not see any trace of fear in his eyes as he stared at her. Only curiosity. “No, as I said, I’m not like the woman you’re used to. I know what I want, and I get it.” She said confidently, while slightly pushing her body harder against his. Damn! Her body still responded the same way to him, just as she remembered it. “And what do you want, Ms. Sophia?” He asked, lifting his hand to cradle her chin gently against his fingers. But he never attempted to remove the gun she had placed threateningly against his temple. The most feared man in the city just sat quietly, watching her. “As I said, marry me?” *** Amelia Clarke might have been the curvy, nerdy girl who was constantly bullied and mocked by everyone, but she still won the heart of the Quarterback King. Oliver Lambert. But her happily ever after came to an end too soon. After four years of keeping their love affair a secret, she finally discovered that Oliver was not the man she thought he was. It turned out that he was the heir of the Morton Group and the next Mafia Don. Moreover, he was already engaged to a famous heiress. Now, Oliver’s father, the current Mafia Don, wanted her out of the picture. And he would do anything to finish the job. Leave Oliver, or he would make her and her family’s lives miserable. Give up the custody of her child, or the child would not see the light of day. Amelia tried to seek Oliver’s help, but the misunderstanding between them, plus Maximus manipulations, had already caused irreparable damage to their relationship. Left desperate and with no other option, she tried to run away with her family so she could protect her child. But the accident happened, taking the lives of her parents and unborn child. But was it really an accident? Left with nothing but a broken heart, she moved away. What started with love eventually turned to hate. What was once a promise of forever became a hunger for revenge. For six years, she lived with only one thing on her mind. To make her ex and his family pay. Motivated by vengeance, she returned as a completely different person. Amelia Clarke was dead. The chubby nerd was no more. In her place, Sophia Maddison was born. A supermodel and a promising entrepreneur. Her first agenda. Infiltrate the Morton’s business. Seduce the new Mafia Don. Oliver Morton. Marry him. Then, take everything that mattered to him. His business, his family, and even his child. *** [Warning: Mature steamy content, moderate violence, and some inappropriate language] COVER PHOTO - Credit to the owner.
