Chasing the Eunuch

Who says a eunuch can’t fall in love? In the noble courts of Valemont, everyone seems to agree that he cannot. Theodore von Virchow is the duke’s second son. A decorated war hero. A man of quiet authority whose cold composure makes even seasoned nobles uneasy. And he is devastatingly handsome. Tall, broad-shouldered, and sinfully good-looking, Theodore looks like a man carved by the gods themselves. Many whisper that such beauty is a cruel waste on a eunuch. With a single declaration, Theodore placed himself beyond the expectations of marriage, heirs, and romantic pursuits. Society accepted it without question. The court pitied him. The women stopped pursuing him. And life quietly moved on. Everyone accepted the truth. Everyone… except Everetta Whitmore. For thirteen years, Everetta has loved exactly one man. While society calls her foolish and her parents attempt to marry her off to more suitable lords, she refuses every offer placed before her. Because Everetta Whitmore does not believe love should be so easily abandoned. And if Theodore von Virchow truly is a eunuch? Then she intends to find out exactly what a eunuch ‘can’ do. Everetta begins a relentless pursuit that shocks the entire court. From scandalous masquerade balls to suspiciously convenient accidents in gardens, libraries, and moonlit balconies, she repeatedly throws herself into Theodore’s path with reckless determination. She bumps into him. Provokes him. Tempts him. And every time he tries to escape her, she only chases harder. Until one evening, Theodore finally snaps. “You are chasing a man who cannot give you anything,” he says coldly. “Have you no dignity?” Everetta only smiles. “Dignity?” she says sweetly. “If I cared about dignity, I wouldn’t be in love with you.” But Theodore von Virchow is a man who keeps his distance from the world, guarding himself behind silence and restraint. Least of all does he want the stubborn woman who refuses to leave him alone anywhere near his carefully ordered life. Yet the more Everetta chases him, the more impossible it becomes for him to ignore her. Because chasing a man who insists he cannot love her might ruin her reputation… but Everetta has never been afraid of scandal. … A scandalous historical romance about obsession, forbidden desire, and the relentless woman determined to prove that even a eunuch cannot escape love forever.

Layers of the paradise

Mitzie thought she was an ordinary seventeen-year-old student—until one strange encounter changed her life. After meeting a mysterious boy named Amons Kling, Mitzie suddenly loses consciousness and awakens inside a brutal prison known as the G.G.G. facility. Surrounded by strangers and forced into deadly games, she discovers that G.G.G. is not simply a prison. It is an experiment designed to find extraordinary individuals capable of reaching somewhere no ordinary human can enter. Their first game is Color Rush, a deadly competition where players must collect nine different color cards while fighting against one another. Each victory grants another color, but every defeat means elimination. Mitzie possesses an apparently unimpressive ability: Danger Sense, a Closis that gives her an electric warning roughly five seconds before danger occurs. It doesn't reveal what the danger is or where it will come from. To survive, she must rely on her intelligence, hand-to-hand combat skills, weapon mastery, and ability to interpret the warning before it's too late. But as the games continue, Mitzie discovers that the players possess a mysterious energy known as Zeal, which can awaken supernatural abilities within the human body. Meanwhile, figures such as the enigmatic Fox and the suspicious Kling seem to know far more about G.G.G. than they should. Eventually, Mitzie learns the terrifying truth: G.G.G. was never the final destination. The organization behind the experiment is searching for someone capable of entering Layer Paradise, a mysterious world beyond the boundaries of ordinary reality. A normal human body cannot enter it, forcing the organization to find individuals capable of transcending their physical limitations. Paradise is divided into seven layers, each more dangerous and mysterious than the last. Within them lie impossible treasures, powerful artifacts, beings beyond human comprehension, and secrets capable of changing the known world. The higher Mitzie travels, the stronger her enemies become—and the more she realizes that the powers she once considered extraordinary may only be the beginning. Her journey begins with a simple goal: Survive G.G.G. But eventually, she will have to ask a much bigger question: What is waiting for her at the seventh layer of Paradise?

Claimed by the Vengeful Alpha

Love. Hate. Revenge. Before she was the High Alpha's daughter, Maya was an orphan named Penelope—and Marcus Keenan was the boy who gave her his locket and promised to marry her... until she was torn from him. Taken by High Alpha Vilhelm, everyone, including Marcus, was told she died. Years later, Marcus returns from the recent war a hero—now Alpha Keenan—with power, lands, and the right to choose any woman as his mate. He takes Maya—the same girl who made his life miserable before he left. He doesn't recognize her as Penelope with the locket long gone. To him, she is cruel, two-faced, and an expert at manipulation. What he doesn't know is that Maya's cruelty was forced, a mask she wore to both protect him and survive. Now trapped in a marriage born of revenge, she must decide. Stay silent and play the part, or reveal who she truly is…before it’s too late. —— Excerpt “This marriage is fake,” Maya said. She should be happy but why did it hurt so much? “Fake?” Keenan frowned and closed the gap between them. He wrapped a palm around her neck, and Maya gasped but no sound left her throat. “Is this another ploy to escape me?” “Isn’t it fake?” Maya whispered, holding his hand, trying to ease his grip. It was getting hard to breathe. Her voice betrayed her, too hopeful even to her own ears. He stared with such hatred, yet a part of her didn’t want it to be fake. Keenan threw his head back and laughed, yet his grip on her neck never wavered. “Woman, surely this must be a joke. You think I would orchestrate a fake marriage with you?” He leaned closer, eyes locked on hers. “You undermine my hatred. I want you bound to me forever. I want you to hate every moment of your life and I will be right here to make sure of it. You can never escape me.” Keenan released her neck. She dropped to the floor, rubbing her throat as she finally drew a full breath. “Fake marriage? Don’t be ridiculous. Even your father couldn’t get you away from me.”
