For twenty years, Selina believed herself to be a simple outcast – a human girl plagued by unusually sharp senses and a phantom 'static' in her mind. Raised in the isolation of the Grey Thicket, she lived by one strict rule: never let anyone see her eyes glow silver under the moonlight. But isolation cannot hide a bloodline. When her sanctuary is breached by Finn, the Blackwood Pack’s most lethal enforcer, he brings with him the scent of cedar, falling rain, and imminent death. Tasked by a usurper to hunt down the lost heir, Finn’s lethal mission comes to a violently abrupt halt when their eyes meet – triggering a white-hot fated mate bond that neither can deny. Suddenly, the man sent to claim her head becomes the only shield between Selina and an army of ruthless trackers. Thrust into a brutal world of shifting loyalties, Selina must navigate the treacherous Dead Zone and the deadly politics of the Blackwood Peaks. As her dormant 'Silver Spark' awakens, she finds herself torn between two immensely powerful men: Finn, her fiercely protective fated mate with blood on his hands, and Malakai, the dangerous Rogue King who communicates through telepathic frost and shares her deepest traumas. With her mother's murderer sitting on the throne and civil war brewing, Selina must master her Alpha command, choose her true mate, and unleash the feral beast within to reclaim her crown.

Arnav Singh Raizada built empires, crushed competitors, and never let anything slip past his control. Until one ordinary afternoon, when a quiet, stubborn girl walked into his world—and something inside him snapped into focus. Khushi Kumari Gupta is not looking for danger. She only wants a stable job, a predictable life, and enough distance from the chaos she grew up in. But the moment she crosses paths with the man who owns half of Delhi, her life tilts off its axis. What begins as curiosity turns into fixation. Arnav’s rules start breaking one by one. He wants her near. He wants her dependent. And when wanting is not enough—he buys the company she works for just to pull her into his world. Khushi tries to resist the magnetic pull between them, but she is drawn deeper into his intensity.

Aurora Waters was overwhelmed with despair when she faced the truth about her family. She had been born into a family of villains. Even worse, her family had an unhealthy obsession with faking their identities. They took “Fake it till you make it” so seriously that it usually ended with them getting killed! Her oldest brother pretended to be a CEO just to mess with the female lead, but that backfired when the male lead showed up and threw him out. Her second brother? He was an obsessive lover who pretended to be a wealthy second-generation heir—until the real heir ended his life. Her third sister? She faked being an heiress to manipulate the second male lead but ended up being killed by him. Her fourth sister? She faked an illness to attract the third male lead’s attention, only to die from a real one. Her mother? She put on a facade of being a kind and loving mom but ultimately met her end at the hands of the male lead. Her father? He pretended to be a powerful tycoon but lost his job and was drowned by the second male lead. And Aurora? She planned to impersonate the daughter of the richest man alive, but if things went the way they always did in her family, she’d probably meet her end by accidentally falling down the stairs.

That’s walking money! What Aurora didn't expect, though, was that she would end up becoming one of the technology big shots herself, in the end.

"The masterminds are cooler than heroes," I mutter as I stare at the chess pieces before me. It is easier to be the one who sits in the shadows and moves the pieces, likewise deciding the flow of the game. Heroes will foolishly sacrifice their lives for the good cause and villains will sacrifice the world for their own gain, but masterminds will use both the heroes and villains to their own benefit. Why, you ask? Well, that's because I've lost my life once while trying to be a hero so, I don't want that anymore. I'd rather be a mastermind who molds the world as per my convenience and live peacefully. Because, why not? *** [Defender of Divine Glory says you are the hope of this world.] What? [Goddess of Wisdom believes that you will be the one to save the world.] Wait, what?! [Propose the Grand Duke the idea of a fake marriage.] And, why would I do that?! [Stop the assassination of Prince Eric.] Why would I save him?! [The candidates for the throne are:... Who will you choose?] Ah! I give up... It seems like a curse that anyone who wishes for a slacker life in Isekai will have to go through the most troublesome things. In my past life, I died because of one rookie mistake but after being transmigrated in the world of fantasy I've gotten an opportunity to start afresh, but unlike the protagonists who look for their love and glory, I'd rather make money and live a life of a slacker. I have magic, I have power and I have money, what else do I need? Well, that was the plan but this damn system is getting on my nerves. I mean who in their sane mind would want to mess with the complicated royal family and political affairs? But that's not all though. I've also become the saviour of this world. Things just can't be anymore worse! Besides, the penalty of failing this quest is... [Failure: Destruction of the World.] It seems like if I screw up in selecting the right person then the destruction that is going to befall the world won't be stopped. If I speak of my reward then it's this vague thing. [Reward: Fulfillment of any wish.] "If that's the case then, I'd rather choose the person who would be the best fit for the throne." And that's how I decided that I would become the Kingmaker.

[ADULT CONTENT WARNING: Explicit intimacy and mature relationship themes. 18+ only.] Seven years together. Two years married. To the world, Alexander Montclair is the perfect husband gentle, patient, and calm. A man who never raises his voice and believes love should be quiet and understanding. But behind closed doors, his silence speaks louder than anger. In our marriage, his family comes before everything. His mother’s wishes dictate our lives, while my own needs are expected to wait. Every compromise, every apology, every sacrifice, it’s always me who gives in. The only time I feel chosen is in our intimacy moment, when desire briefly drowns out duty and that's when he listens to me instead of his family’s voice. But sex moments can’t hold a marriage together. This is not a story about cruelty or violence. It’s about emotional neglect, quiet obedience, and the slow ache of realizing that love without choice will eventually break you. After seven years of loving him, I must decide: Remain the husband who is always second or finally choose myself.

Time isn’t just an idea it’s essential. Without it, nothing finds its place; nothing can be measured or remembered. There’s no history without time, no hope without its passing. Life moves like a clock that may seem out of sync, yet somehow keeps perfect time. Every great story lives within time, defined by moments that matter, each affecting what comes next. And for Korra and Asami, their story was written the same way. For those willing and with the powers to support, welcome to my Patreon. patreon.com/Eva_Dragon
