"Forgive me, my soul," he said, knowing it was probably the last time he would see the love of his life. *** Simply put, King Agust was the devil in plain clothes. A raging Lycan with an unwavering desire to wipe out werewolves, he was the ultimate danger to a race whose only mistake was sharing the same blood as that of his father— a werewolf alpha who ruined him and left him consumed by hatred. Like a mad king, Agust waged relentless wars to drive them into hiding. Until he met Park. Ruler of Kiyoto, the last standing werewolf pack, Alpha Park was everything Agust despised yet could not ignore; fearless, defiant, powerful, and unforgiving, with a deep hatred for the Lycan king. So much so that when he learned they were mates, Park rejected Agust on the very day they met. And Agust… took it as a challenge. But when his Lycan army attacked Kiyoto without his approval, Agust burned them all, triggering a revolution. In the middle of that revolution, an enemy with a familiar face arose, threatening everything Agust held dear. Even then, the only thing Agust cared for was the one man who made him weak in the knees. Alpha Park. Would Agust win both wars?

[WARNING: R19+ CONTENT] I didn’t survive a boardroom of sharks just to be eaten by a wolf in the middle of nowhere. …But I am being eaten the wrong way... In my last life, I was Lexianna: ice-cold CEO, competitor-crusher, pineapple addict who ruled with a platinum card and zero mercy—until my husband choked the life out of me for the fortune and his side piece. Death was inconvenient. Waking up as a poisoned white fox demoness at the bottom of a cliff? That’s just rude. Now I’m leaking a scent that screams ‘pineapple piña colada heat,’ cursed to lactate like it’s my new side hustle, and the only antidote is the essence of the demonic realm’s most feral demon wolf who can’t stop sniffing me. He needs my ‘product.’ I need his cure. It’s the filthiest merger I’ve ever negotiated. Poison to reverse. Heat to tame. Empire to conquer. If these demons want a taste of my pineapple special, they’ll learn to kneel first. Care to watch me turn this nightmare into world domination? **** If you’re looking for a female lead who treats her harem like a high-stakes alliance and isn't afraid to tell a Demon King to go fuck himself if he’s doing a bad job. Lexianna is a CEO who demands perfection. She’s extremely picky about her males; if they aren’t drop-dead gorgeous and carrying the kind of heavy-duty assets required to neutralize her poison, she’s not interested. This is her world; the demonic beast kings are just the employees.

“So I can summon Heroines and Villainesses, but I just have to create them myself? Seems easy enough!” Max lived for one thing and one thing only: a good story. Novels were the only escape in his mundane life. However, all the light novels and manhwas he read had the same problem: Ruining female characters. In all these novels, the powerful heroines and terrifying villainesses were always reduced to one-dimensional trophies obsessed with the MC. They had no goals or purpose of their own. When Max discovered Awakener Supreme, he thought it would be different. It started out promising; a dark fantasy, detailed, consistent world building, a complex magic system and interesting characters. But everything went downhill pretty fast. To please the fans, the dark tone vanished, and the fierce female cast was reduced to shallow fan service. In a burst of anger, Max confronted the lead writer, criticizing him for ruining female characters, and claiming he could do a much better job at creating heroines and villainesses. He never expected the universe to take him at his word. Max suddenly wakes up inside the world of Awakener Supreme, and was given the chance to back up what he had claimed in the form of a unique class. ⸢ You have awakened your Class ⸥ ⸢ Class: Architect - You can create heroines and villainesses and make them your Summons ⸥ ⸢ Class Group: Summoner ⸥ Was Max all talk? Or can he truly create more powerful and consistent heroines and villainesses to help him survive the grim world of Awakener Supreme?

Faelyn died at twenty-seven because a deer went feral and decided she was the enemy. Waking up in a world where drop-dead gorgeous men turn into leopards and panthers should've been a fantasy come true. Except two rival chiefs are fighting over her like she's the last meal on earth, and a system named "Puffball" won't stop laughing at her predicament. One minute she's wrangling zoo animals, the next she's stuck between two beast clans forced to build their villages around the only surviving water source after a brutal drought. Cooperation or extinction: nature's cruelest group project. The problem? She's the fated mate of both chiefs.

Then Puffball grants her one invasive gift: the ability to hear their unfiltered thoughts. ~Roshan's brain: "She smiled at me! Time to hunt ten rabbits and start building a nursery..."~ ~Nyx's brain: "That spotted idiot touched her hand again. Truce or not, I'm going to..."~ Using zookeeper instincts and the world's most unhinged spoiler system, Faelyn has to survive beastworld politics, food shortages, jealous rivals, and two apex predators who can't share. She's just trying to keep everyone alive, stop a clan war, and not become dinner. But when both alphas start thinking about forever and cubs, Faelyn realizes survival isn't her only problem. It's why Puffball keeps giggling every time she insists she's only choosing one mate. The real question is: Can she survive what they're really thinking about her?

Content Warning: Contains mature themes that may be unsuitable for underaged readers. Excerpt Ragnar finally looked up. His eyes roamed her face, then dropped lower and lingered just a second too long. “Careful, princess. Keep taunting me like that and I’ll start thinking you like our nightly sparring.” “And if I did?” Her voice was soft now. Almost playful. “Would you stop pretending that you don't like it when I challenge you?” He rose from his seat slowly until he stood toe to toe with her. “Tell me something, Circe.” She tilted her chin up. “What?” “If I kissed you right now… Would you slap me, stab me, or kiss me back?” Her breath hitched. “That depends.” “On?” “How good the kiss is.” A pause. Something hummed between them, something neither of them dared name. Ragnar’s gaze dropped to her mouth. “Do you want me to find out?” She smiled, slow and wicked. “Make it worth the risk.” **** She was forced to marry the man who led the attack on her people.

[WARNING: MATURE EXPLICIT CONTENT R18] [LOTS OF SMUTS! NO NETORARE! NO YURI] [STRONG NETORI AND SMART MC] Rex Rexilion was a scumbag piece of shit—and he knew it. He was a bully. A serial heartbreaker. A man who laughed at consequences and crushed others for fun. When death finally claimed him, Rex expected hell. Instead, he woke up in another world. A cruel, lawless fantasy realm where heroes are hypocrites, gods are bored, and morality is just another currency. Before Rex could even process his reincarnation, a system appeared before his eyes to help him get stronger through his desire. [Desire Authority System Activated.] [Objective: Harvest desire from all womens you can get.] The rules were simple and ridiculous: the deeper the desire of MILFs, GILFs, and, VIRGINS, the stronger Rex would become. All of his strength, skills, titles, even fate itself would bend to him as long as he continued indulging in temptation. To Rex, it sounded less like a curse and more like a joke. A joke he was very willing to play along with. Armed with shameless charm, villainous intelligence, and a system that grew stronger the more morally questionable his actions became, Rex carved a path of chaos through kingdoms and noble houses alike. Seduction replaced swords. Manipulation replaced honor. And laughter followed wherever disasters unfolded. Heroes hunted him. Churches condemned him. Empires whispered his name with fear and fascination. Yet Rex never pretended to be a savior. “Villain?” he would scoff. “No. I’m just honest about my desires.” As wars ignited over affection and alliances collapsed over whispered promises, Rex Rexilion rose, not as a hero, but as something far more dangerous: A villain who understands desire better than gods. In this world, righteousness will fall. And Rex will laugh as it burns. ---------------------------- What to expect: No NTR, No Yuri, No Yandere/Tsundere, A lot of Netori where MC steals someone's girl, pure villain MC, and LARGE harem MC is not a simp as well Tags: R-18 | Mature | Adult | Smut | Large | Impregnation | Harem | Ecchi | Hentai | NSFW | Netori | Blowjob |Anal | Sex | Threesome | Foursome | Moresome | Hardcore | Feet | Thicc | Milf | Gilf | Virgin | Choking | Out doors | Humiliation | Nymph| Bdsm | Fetish | Every Fantasy Creature | Action | Handsome MC | Overpowered and Smart MC | Pure Villain | Comedy | Dark | and many more...

Alex didn’t ask for a second life. But he’s definitely not complaining. In a world where women outnumber men, and loneliness is far more common than love, he finds himself surrounded by attention and affection he never had before. Warm smiles. Lingering touches. Quiet moments that slowly turn into something more. A slow life. A comfortable life. The kind of life Alex once dreamed of back on Earth. One where bonds grow naturally…and nothing is rushed. At least, that’s how it starts. Because beneath the soft moments and growing connections, something in this world feels… off. And the deeper he gets involved... The harder it becomes to walk away. After all… The goddess who brought him here didn’t do it out of kindness. She had a reason. And it’s not one she’s willing to tell him. ------------------->-

[WARNING: MATURE EXPLICIT CONTENT R18] [LOTS OF SMUTS! NO NETORARE! NO YURI] [STRONG NETORI AND SMART MC] Mike Hawk was a menace, wearing his reputation like a finely tailored suit. But that name? It was the latest in a long line of aliases—the final one he would ever require. Before adopting the name Mike Hawk, he was known as El Sombra, a figure of dread in the blood-soaked alleys of Cardera—a shadow draining cartels dry before dawn. Prior to that, he operated under the alias Jin Mao in the underground markets of Suhen—a man whose cruelty was executed with such precision that powerful individuals not only lost their thrones but also their lives. They forgot they had ever occupied one. Before those identities, there was yet another name, another country, and yet another government left grappling with a cold case and the quiet shame of being outmaneuvered by one man wielding no army and showing no mercy. Caught. Jailed. Released. Renamed. Repeated. Until the United States of Erosyne buried him so deep that they believed it was permanent. But it wasn’t. Five years later, he emerged—leaner, quieter, and far more dangerous than anything they had ever contained. He required one final name. Something pristine. Something that no database on earth would ever recognize. Mike Hawk. The moment his boots hit Erosyne's pavement, reality glitched. [Dominance Authority System — Initialized.] [Objective: Claim desire from every woman who crosses your path.] The deeper the longing—housewives, girlfriends, sheltered girls who had never encountered a man like him—the stronger he became. Power, wealth, and influence followed him, as luck itself seemed to bend in his favor. Mike didn't call it a blessing. He called it leverage. Armed with the cold intelligence of a man who had outmaneuvered governments across four continents and navigated a system that rewarded every boundary he crossed, Mike Hawk didn’t start over. He simply resumed. Seduction replaced aggression. Patience replaced recklessness. And wherever he walked, desire followed like a shadow that belonged to someone else. Crime lords sensed their empires eroding from unseen sources. Politicians burdened by secrets became anxious without understanding the cause. Women who had dedicated years to constructing barriers found themselves unexpectedly unlocking doors. Yet Mike never pretended to be anything apart from what he was. "Rehabilitated?" he'd smirk. "I've been running circles around empires since before this country knew my name. Prison just gave me time to think of more fucked up things I could do soon." As fortunes crumbled under whispered promises and women who seemingly had it all surrendered willingly, Mike Hawk emerged—not as a redemption arc nor as a cautionary tale. But as a phenomenon, Erosyne had never been forewarned about: 'A phantom with a hundred pasts and one very deliberate future.' Every country thought they had seen the last of him. The United States of Erosyne doesn't even know it's already his. ---------------------------- What to expect: No NTR, No Yuri, No Yandere/Tsundere, A lot of Netori where MC steals someone's girl, PURE EVIL MC, and LARGE harem MC is not a simp as well Tags: R-18 | Mature | Adult | Smut | Large | Impregnation | Harem | Ecchi | Hentai | NSFW | Netori | Blowjob | Anal | Sex | Threesome | Foursome | Moresome | Hardcore | Feet | Thicc | Milf | Gilf | Virgin | Choking | Out doors | Humiliation | Nymph| Bdsm | Fetish | Blackmail| Action | Handsome MC | Overpowered and Smart MC | Pure Villain | Comedy | Dark | and many more...

This is a fanfiction based on the anime Classroom of the Elite. While the characters and setting are inspired by the original work, the story and plot are entirely my own creation. Significant changes have been made to the original story, including the absence of Ayanokoji and the introduction of a new White Room-trained protagonist. All ideas, scenarios, and character developments are original and written by me. Shirogane Rei, a highly trained White Room student, transfers to Class D of Advanced Nurturing High School a chaotic class known for its weakness and disorder. Armed with intelligence, charisma, and the ability to manipulate emotions with deadly precision, Rei turns romance, desire, and even sensuality into instruments of control. Every interaction, every whispered touch, and every seductive glance is calculated, designed to test the limits of human emotion and dominance. As she orchestrates chaos and manipulates her classmates for observation, Rei discovers something unexpected: emotions she never experienced, connections she never anticipated, and a dangerous allure that may even threaten her own control. A psychological, erotic, and manipulative journey into desire, power, and the fine line between love and domination.

She was never chosen to save the world — she was forged to survive it. Etani is a half-fae assassin who understands the rules of survival: power is taken, mercy is punished, and every victory has a cost. She was never meant to be a heroine — only a weapon. When fate drags her from the shadows into the heart of political and divine conflict, Etani is stripped of her power, betrayed by courts and gods alike, and forced into leadership she never wanted. Each battle reshapes her. Each choice costs her something she cannot replace. As assassinations give way to crowns, and kingdoms become bargaining chips for gods, Etani must navigate brutal power struggles, shifting alliances, and enemies who would rather break her than kill her. Survival demands sacrifice. Power demands blood. And destiny does not care who it destroys along the way. This is a dark epic fantasy of ruthless survival, morally complex choices, and a female lead who does not seek redemption — only control over the chaos determined to consume her. For readers who enjoy dark fantasy, morally grey protagonists, and stories where power is both weapon and curse, Etani is a completed 12-book saga of transformation, vengeance, and the thin line between predator and prey.

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.
