"Once debilitated, always tainted." Malina is the heart of the story; Spinelia is just the echo no one hears. Systematically isolated by her former friend Malina, Spinelia loses her boyfriend, her best friend, and her sense of reality all in the wake of her grandmother's death. Caught between a medical diagnosis of paranoia and the terrifying certainty that she is being hunted, Spinelia must survive the "throe of a Spinel”. Is she a victim of a grand design, or is she simply losing her mind?

A king who loved his people. A husband who swore to protect his family. A man willing to sacrifice everything—even his humanity. King Elandor of Kaelon has everything a man could desire: a realm that worships him, a wife who touches his very soul, and a future bathed in light. Yet in the shadows of his own city, strings are being pulled. Not against his realm—against his heart. When darkness strikes, Elandor faces a choice no man should ever have to make: Accept. Or become. There is a way to grow stronger than his pain. A way to crawl into the bodies of his enemies, hollow them from within, steal their strengths. A way to become immortal—yet the more he takes, the less remains of the king he once was. The Beast Within is the story of a man caught between love and damnation—and the discovery that the greatest monster is not the enemy, but what we become to defeat him.

Armed with his newfound power, Kriel begins a relentless journey to free himself from the chains of destiny, shattering every law, faction, and power that dares to stand in his way. In a world where strength dictates survival, he will carve his name into existence as the harbinger of chaos facing. His ultimate goal? To transcend the very forces that shaped the world—and rewrite it on his terms rising to the pinnacle of all existence.

“You’ve poisoned my tea.” His voice is molten silk, low and deliberate, as he stirs the cup with agonizing slowness. Each rotation of the spoon sends a shiver racing down my spine. I grip the table’s edge until my knuckles bleach white, heart hammering so violently I’m sure he can hear it. My breath catches—sharp, ragged—while his golden eyes pin me in place, never once wavering. He lifts the cup. Takes a slow, deliberate sip. Then another. The bitter poison must scorch his tongue, yet he doesn’t flinch. He savors it. Savors me watching him do it. “I don’t… I don’t know what you mean…” The lie tastes filthier than the toxin itself—thick, cloying, useless. Beyond the archway, naked omegas sway in glistening, hypnotic circles under flickering torchlight, bodies oiled and gleaming, every movement an invitation. I stare at them desperately, begging him to look anywhere else. Why does his attention burn hottest on the one tiny rebellion I dared? He sets the cup down. Silent. Final. Then he rises. Three measured strides. That’s all it takes for him to close the distance. His gloved hand captures my chin—firm yet maddeningly gentle—tilting my face up to his. I try to jerk away. His grip tightens just enough to remind me who holds the power. Before I can draw another breath, his mouth crashes over mine. My eyes fly open on a choked gasp. That’s when the arrogant devil lets the poisoned tea flood from his lips into mine—hot, bitter, intimate. It spills over my tongue in a slow, claiming rush, laced with the dark heat of him, the faint metallic edge of danger. I choke, thrash my head, but his fingers lock me in place, forcing me to swallow every sinful drop he feeds me. His tongue brushes mine once—deliberate, teasing—as the last of the poison slides down my throat. He pulls back barely an inch. Just enough to drag the tip of his tongue along his lower lip, licking away the final trace of toxin while he watches me shudder. My chest heaves, lungs burning, tears stinging the corners of my eyes. My body trembles uncontrollably—fear, fury, and something far more treacherous coiling low in my belly. “Now tell me, Princess…” His smirk is soft, wicked, victorious. His thumb strokes the edge of my swollen lower lip, smearing the last damp trace of tea. “How do we survive your poison when it tastes this sweet on your tongue?” What happens when the man you swore to destroy becomes the only one who can steal your breath? When the devil you loathe turns into the god who owns your every shiver? When you finally bite the forbidden fruit… and discover it was always meant to ruin you?

Valeria wakes up as Elise, a villainess destined to freeze to death in a ruined farmhouse. Her only assets? A crumbling estate, a pack of starving, broken beastmen husbands who hate her, and a magical Library inside her head. The world thinks she is a useless noblewoman. They’re wrong. She is a Librarian. And she knows how to organize chaos. Using ancient knowledge to farm in the dead of winter, alchemy to heal the incurable, and engineering to build a fortress, she intends to turn this frozen wasteland into a sanctuary. Her husbands were once kings—a Tiger General, a Dragon Strategist, a Shark Assassin, a Phoenix Artisan, and a Wolf Prince. The Empire broke them. She will fix them. And if anyone tries to take them back? Well, she has a ballista for that.

The world ended once—quietly, in fire and forgotten gods. In the ruins of Bhūtala, three broken youths survive a battle they were never meant to win. Abhi, Aryan, and Ahaan are ordinary—wounded, defeated, and powerless—yet something ancient has begun to stir within them. Long before cities fell and skies burned, divine knowledge shaped the fate of worlds. That knowledge was buried. Sealed. Lost to time. Now, echoes of it are awakening. As remnants of advanced technology clash with forgotten myth, the three are drawn into a war that predates humanity itself—one where gods fade, civilizations collapse, and power demands a price. Guided by a shadowed mentor and hunted by forces that should not exist, they must grow stronger or be erased from history. Ancient weapons. Lost battles. Three destinies converging toward a single, inevitable truth. This is not a story of heroes born strong. It is the story of survivors who must rise—or be consumed by the aeons that came before them. Aeons Nirvana is a myth-forged science fantasy saga of progression, sacrifice, and the rebirth of legends.

Their leader — enigmatic, dangerous, and driven by something deeper than conquest — leaves a trail of havoc wherever he goes. But this isn’t just a story of rebellion. It’s a story of purpose. Of fate. Of whether the stars themselves can be bent to one man’s will. TARTARUSIOS blends high-stakes action with mystery and mythic undertones. The ship is more than metal — it’s legend. The crew, more than criminals — they’re chosen. And as their journey unfolds, the question remains: will they reach their goal, or will destiny rewrite their course?

When death is just the beginning of a worse story... Marcus Reeves, a burnt-out 28-year-old IT worker, dies in a truck accident and reincarnates as Caelan Ashborne—the forgotten bastard son of Duke Valorian in a cultivation fantasy world. But this isn't just any world—it's from a webnovel Marcus read, and he knows exactly how this story ends. In two years, his mother Elara dies of illness. Three months later, he's murdered by his half-brother. Both deaths are footnoted in a single line: "unmourned and unremarked." Refused to accept this fate, Caelan discovers he has the Apex Sovereign System—a power that lets him grow stronger through combat, achievement, and bonds with others. Dual cultivation with trusted partners accelerates growth exponentially. There's just one problem: the only person Caelan truly trusts, the only one who's ever loved him unconditionally, is Elara—his mother. As political schemes intensify and assassination attempts begin, Caelan faces an impossible choice. Traditional cultivation won't make him strong enough fast enough to change their fates. But crossing the ultimate taboo—becoming his mother's lover to save her life through forbidden dual cultivation—will make them outcasts even among outcasts. From forgotten bastard to rising power, Caelan must: Master the cultivation system before his enemies master him Navigate deadly family politics where siblings murder for favor Build a faction from the estate's other forgotten children Steal away his half-sister from a cruel arranged marriage Face the novel's "heroic" protagonist who's destined to win Make impossible choices between morality and survival In a world where power is everything and family means nothing, Caelan will forge his own path—even if it means rewriting the very story he's trapped in. Love. Power. Taboo. Survival. Some destinies are worth breaking. Some bonds are worth any price.
