CONTENT WARNING: /This novel contains mature themes, explicit sexual content, strong language, and adult situations. Reader discretion is advised./ --- She ran from the devil who raised her… And married the one who wore a crown. After her parents’ tragic death, Lydia Andreyevna’s life became a nightmare. Stripped of her name, inheritance, and freedom by her uncle—Lord Alexander—she was treated like property and promised to a Count four times her age. Desperate to escape, she fled into the cold night… and straight into blood. A stranger. Wounded. Beautiful. Terrifying. She should’ve left him. But she didn’t. She touched him once—and fate branded her forever. Her uncle caught her the next morning. Her escape failed. But when she begged Queen Olga for protection, the Queen offered her a deadly bargain: Marry the masked Grand Duke of Zolotaria. The king’s hunting dog. The butcher of the East. The devil in a crown. The man feared by kings. The heir to the throne. The same man she once saved. Ivan Romanov. They say he bathes in blood. That he kills without blinking. That he conquered kingdoms with a smile behind a mask. That no one sees his face—and lives. Some call him the devil. Others call him Death’s favorite son. But behind the mask is the same man she found dying in the dark. The same voice that haunted her dreams. The same hands she once held. Now, he’s her husband. Her jailer. Her obsession. She doesn’t know if she’s his prisoner, or his weakness. Cold and untouchable, Ivan doesn’t share his bed. Doesn’t share his secrets. But she sees it—the hunger in his eyes. The pain in his silence. The way he looks at her like she’s the only thing keeping his demons at bay. She should fear him. She should hate him. But the moment she dares to take off his mask… it’s already too late. Because Ivan wants her—her fire, her body, her heart. And in his world, what he wants, he keeps. Even if it means burning down the kingdom. She thought she was running from hell. She ended up in his bed. And the most dangerous thing of all? She doesn’t want to leave. ___________________________________ Just a Heads-Up: The spicy stuff doesn't happen right away. It begins from chapter 28. This story takes its time setting the mood and building the connection first—trust the slow burn!

Title: Kasarinlan Note: This is a fantasy story infused with Philippine history, set in an alternate world. Tagline: "Freedom, Unity, Peace, The three symbols a nation needs to fight against foreign oppression. But what happens when those who embody and deliver these qualities clash in their methods and beliefs on how to protect the nation they are meant to safeguard?" Plot: For over 500 years, the powerful nation of Spain has colonized the Philippines, treating it as one of its colonies. Due to countless failures and defeats of Filipino heroes and revolutionaries, the people gradually lost the courage to reclaim their homeland from the colonizers. With hope fading, Filipinos eventually surrendered and accepted Spanish rule over their nation. Over the centuries, Spanish governance grew increasingly cruel toward the country's citizens, dividing Filipino society into two classes: Honorary Spaniards or "Hilaw" (as the Spanish call them): These are Filipinos who abandoned their Filipino identity to become "adopted childre ton of Spain" in exchange for certain privileges in the country. Low-Class Citizens or "Indio" (as the Spanish call them): These are Filipinos from poor families, stripped of numerous privileges and rights in their own land. Due to their low social status, they are often oppressed, abused, and unable to defend themselves in any court or legal system in the country.

'Try not to fall into my hands,' she sneered. 'People like you never seem to live very long.' In the waning period of the Chengde era, eight-year-old Bai Ruoyao watches her mother sacrifice herself in a poisoned plot meant for her father, the Minister of War. In an instant the sheltered, tomboy life she has known falls apart as she learns the cost of power and status. She begins a long journey in this slice of life novel, navigating the world of nobles and generals, politics and household schemes. Five years later, she returns to a capital ruled by fear, where the young emperor sits beneath the shadow of a ruthless regent; noble families scheme, marry, and die in silence. The women who found their strength in the rigidity of the system succumb to its treachery, but others may just become the blade that severs it. She vows not to trust anyone but her marriage to Ding Yifeng, the ruthless heir of the northern marquisate, threatens to break down the walls she once put up. It began as an alliance of necessity, or did it? From caged mansions to border plains, Ink and Blood traces over two decades of vengeance, tragic love and betrayal: a tale of those who learned to rule a world built to silence them, and of the chime that sounds each time history begins again.

From overworked corporate slave to… the fat niece of a future villain? At twenty-three, my life ended in the most ironic way possible—drowning in a lake while reading an online romance novel. When I woke up, I wasn’t just alive—I was inside that very novel. And worse, not as the princess or the healer or even the tragic maid. No. I woke up as Seraphine Agro, the silver-haired, chubby niece of the story’s main villain, Duke Tayler Agro—the man who would one day summon a famine, experiment on peasants, and get publicly executed. Awesome. Now I’m stuck in a half-collapsed mansion with stale soup, a broken “Duke” father who’s too kind for his own good, and an entire kingdom collapsing into plague and hunger. And to make things worse, the hero of the story—the dangerously handsome knight Sir Alex Canva—is on his way to inspect our lands. I know the plot. I know who dies. And I’m not planning to go quietly. Armed with sarcasm, stubbornness, and a questionable diet, I’m rewriting destiny—one disastrous choice at a time.

The fjord lay calm, its surface like polished glass, reflecting the leaden clouds hanging in the sky. Flocks of ravens circled back and forth, heralding the bitter northern winds soon to sweep southward. This was the very first scene the protagonist beheld after traveling through time to ninth-century Scandinavia. He had become nothing more than an ordinary self-sufficient farmer, with only a barren, desolate wheat field to his name. For centuries, the glory of the Roman Empire had crumbled into dust. The world lay shattered, kings waged endless wars against one another, and in this turbulent, dark Middle Ages, his first task was simply to survive—then, somehow, to find a way to end the chaos… ..........

I gave stern orders for no one to disturb me for the entirety of the day." her austere voice rang out. "I... I know my princess... please forgive me... I... I did not mean to disturb you but... this is something very important." "Let's have it then." replied Angelica closing the book she had been reading as she laid eyes on the maid. The maid gulped, the fear evident in her eyes, she did not know how Angelica would react to the severely bad news she had brought with her, however, one thing was sure, Angelica would not react lightly at all. "My... m...y prince...ss the..." said the maid, causing Angelica to sigh in annoyance, rolling her eyes, she had better things to do than sit here listening to the maid's mumbling. "Yes, say it." said Angelica giving the maid a hand. "My princess, the crowned prince has returned." said the maid. "Oh... well that's nice... I guess I will see him later, or better yet tomorrow. There is no rush, I am sure he is swarmed by crowds at the moment." replied Angelica lazily, she really had no intention of moving from this spot. "But my princess... ther— " "Oh, you're right, it would be unacceptable if I did not come out to greet him, rumours would certainly ensue and the kingdom would be in serious hysteria as they always are." replied Angelica annoyed. "Yes, you are right, I should go and welcome him back home." said Angelica as she stood up and yawned. "My princess... that is not all, there is something else..." said the maid. "And what is that?" asked Angelica as the maid's eyes darted around the room, she did not know what to do, or how best to put this. "My princess... the... the crowned prince has truly returned but..." said the maid with a prolonged pause. "But what?" asked Angelica, her senses tingling, she had a inking that there was something wrong from the maid's strange behaviour. "But his highness..." paused the maid. "Out with it now!" said Angelica sternly. "His highness has returned with a strange woman and the rumours claim that she is his new wife!" spat out the maid as Angelica suddenly felt lightheaded and she fell back down on the chair. "My princess!" cried the maid as she rushed to her. "This is some sort of farce." said Angelica as the maid proceeded quickly to fan her with a cloth. "No my princess... it is true." replied the maid. "This is impossible. Ian must be mad, I am going to see this display of stupidity for myself!" said Angelica hotly, quickly rising up and storming out of the room as the poor maid followed behind her. ||||

'MICHAEL KINGSTON' The very name resonated with a multitude of meanings, each as potent and distinct as the individuals who uttered it. To some, he was the towering figure of a great general in the United States Army, a master strategist who shaped the battlefields of his time. To others, he was a beacon, a leader who inspired and guided the masses. In the world of commerce, Michael Kingston was spoken of in hushed, awestruck tones – the greatest businessman the world had ever witnessed. He was a paradox, a man who embodied both the gentle virtues of righteousness and kindness, and the stark, unwavering force of ruthlessness when the occasion demanded. Respect and fear walked hand-in-hand in his wake. Such was his influence that, for much of the 20th century, the trajectory of the world itself seemed to bend to his will. This is the extraordinary life of the Mighty Michael Kingston. Note: Real life historical politicians, actors and actresses will be included in the story.

Di Benua Ruyin, lima Kekaisaran raksasa saling berdiri seperti pilar dunia, namun kedamaian di antara mereka bertahan hanya karena satu tempat: Balai Pagoda Roh, pusat diplomasi, perdagangan, dan hukum internasional tempat semua Kekaisaran wajib tunduk pada aturan bersama. Balai Pagoda Roh dipimpin oleh seorang wanita misterius, Wa’imeng’er, tokoh yang dianggap sebagai penjaga kestabilan benua. Tidak ada yang mengetahui masa lalunya, usianya, atau kekuatan sejatinya—yang jelas, selama ia duduk di puncak pagoda, tidak ada Kekaisaran yang berani memulai perang. Namun ketenangan panjang itu retak ketika Kekaisaran Tianlong jatuh ke tangan Kaisar baru: Xuyu Wansyi, penguasa kejam yang memerintahkan penarikan pajak besar saat rakyat terpuruk oleh bencana. Penolakan rakyat pada malam itu berakhir menjadi tragedi pembantaian yang mengguncang seluruh benua. Sementara dunia bergejolak, di sebuah desa kecil yang jauh dari hiruk pikuk kekuasaan, seorang anak laki-laki bernama Wu Yan tumbuh tanpa mengetahui siapa dirinya sebenarnya. Ia dibesarkan oleh seorang pria asing yang suatu hari menghilang, meninggalkan satu pesan: “Jika kau ingin mengetahui siapa orang tuamu… jadilah kuat. Kuat hingga dunia memandangmu.” Pesan itu menjadi awal perjalanan Wu Yan menjelajahi dunia yang tak pernah ia kenal—dunia penuh Kekaisaran serakah, sekte kuno, monster roh raksasa, dan kekuatan tersembunyi yang bangkit dari zaman purba. Dalam perjalanannya ia bertemu seorang gadis ceria yang menyembunyikan identitasnya sebagai putri dari salah satu Kekaisaran besar. Gadis itu menjadi cahaya dalam langkah Wu Yan, tanpa ia tahu bahwa takdir mereka akan diuji dengan cara yang tak terduga. Saat Balai Pagoda Roh terguncang, Kekaisaran saling mengincar, dan sembilan monster roh kuno mulai bergeser dari tidurnya, Wu Yan berdiri di tengah pusaran sejarah—membawa rahasia besar yang bahkan ia sendiri belum menyadarinya. Di dunia yang menuju kehancuran, hanya mereka yang memiliki tekad dan kekuatanlah yang mampu menentukan masa depan Benua Ruyin.
