EXCERPT "Do you know what I love about you, Stella?" he whispered, his voice low and dangerous as his eyes darkened with desire. Before she could respond, Simon leaned closer, his breath warm against her neck. Slowly, his fangs emerged, glinting in the dim light. His fingers traced a path along her skin, slipping beneath the fabric of her shirt, sending a shiver through her. "Those pure, innocent doe eyes of yours," he murmured, his voice almost tender, "the way they plead with me, like you think you can stop me." Panic flared in her chest, and she pressed against his firm body, trying to push him away. "Sir, please... I am married. This is wrong—it’s a sin to go after a married woman." His response was a low, rumbling chuckle that sent chills down her spine. It wasn’t just the sound of it; it was the darkness behind it. The amusement in his laughter terrified her. "And I am a sinner, my little fish," he replied, his voice dripping with menace as his eyes flashed with hunger, before sinking his fangs in her neck.

"I would rather die than birth a monster's child." She spat. This drew out a low derisive chuckle from the tall figure standing in front of her. He grabs her jaw firmly, forcing her to look into his eyes. His other hand secures her wrists tightly above her head. The wall meets her spine because of how pinned she is against it. Lips hovering close to hers, he whispers, "Not only are you going to carry my child and birth it. I am going to keep you buried under me for as long as I wish. Making sure my cock is the only thing that you know and remember. Ruining you for anyone else like I did before. Shattered into a million pieces by her sixth heartbreak, Gweneth gave herself to alcohol and a reckless one night stand with a stranger. The stranger happens to be none other than the cold, charismatic Calyx Lamont—her highschool bully and a spawn of the devil. He is someone that she had given her all to run away from. A man that she had swore to never encounter again. One month later, Gweneth is faced with the dreadful realization of a pregnancy. As well as an ironclad contract from Calyx Lamont to be his contract wife and birth the baby—all against her wishes.

"Please, I have to go home." That's what I told the man in front of me. I begged him to let me go, but in my heart, I pray he never will.  How crazy is that? How can I feel safer with a stranger I've just met than the man who was supposed to love me until death? Why does he look at me like I'm the most beautiful thing in the world? Does he see the bruises? Is that why he's doing this? I should've never left the house, but I couldn't let him win. Not this time, but I hadn't counted on this. "He'll never hurt you again." I want to believe those words, but I don't know if I can. What if I'm going crazy? What if it's all a dream, and I wake up in the nightmare that's my life? I shouldn't trust him, but gods, why does his voice affect me like this? Why does he smell like lightning storms and heather? "Nefretiri? Do you know what a mate is?" No, he didn't just say that! Life isn't supposed to be this dark. That's what Nefretiri Jordans believed until her world came crumbling down. Her marriage was now a game of slave and master, and she would never win. Not when her husband was cruel enough to bring his mistresses to the house and act like Nefra was nothing more than a servant. She wants to run, but she can't. He'll never let her go, especially not with their new daughter. So, she has no choice but to live in hell and do her best to stay sane. Unfortunately, that line of sanity suddenly breaks when Ricky goes too far, and Nefra makes a stupid choice. After all, it's just a cake. Who cared about that?  Fate has a cruel sense of humor, and Nefra quickly learns that nothing is by chance. So, what started as a painful but necessary trip to the store turned into an unexpected adventure.  After all, she never put mate on her shopping list. Not that it mattered to Ivan. The Alpha of the Sebryanny Kinzhal pack from Colorado who's slowly coming back from a year of hell. All he wanted was to find peace and figure out what he was supposed to do with his life. The moon goddess had an answer, and she set him up to find the one thing he needed to be saved.  So, when Nefra crashed into his truck and he saw her, Ivan knew she was his destiny. Unfortunately for him, she's not on board and seems to belong to someone else. If Ivan wants Nefretiri to be his, he'll need to do more than earn her trust. Dark secrets are waiting to devour both of them, and more than one enemy is watching in the shadows to claim what both unknowingly hold.  Somehow, they must get past their pain to find each other and build something neither believed was possible again. Finally, it's time to put the cards on the table and bet it all. If they win, their lives will be more than either of them could ever dream, but if they lose, the darkness will destroy more than one life.

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss. A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage. But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her.

My family sold me to a monster to settle their debts. The whole country knows the rumors. Nicholas Sterling is a hideous, reclusive beast who shuns the light, a man whose face was ruined in a fire and whose heart was twisted by cruelty. They say he buys beautiful things—especially women—just to break them. I was delivered to his cliffside manor with nothing but the clothes on my back and a heart full of dread, a sacrificial lamb to keep my sister alive. I expected a grotesque tyrant. I was not prepared for him. A man with the face of a fallen angel and the presence of a king. His eyes aren't cruel; they're haunted by a grief so deep it steals my breath. His touch isn't violent; it’s a question that terrifies me even more. He calls me his wife. He gives me the run of his castle. But he also watches me with an intensity that feels like possession. And the one rule he gives me is the most chilling of all: Never go into the west wing. But in a house built on lies, how can I resist? The truth is waiting behind that door. And it’s more beautiful, and more terrible, than any beast.

Check Out: I Am Not A Pro Fourteen years ago, the youngest daughter of the legendary Sunaina family disappeared. A tragedy, a mystery. A family drama big enough to make an entire mansion run out of tissues. The Sunaina family searched everywhere for their lost child. And after 14 long years...They finally found her. The only problem? They expected a cute little daughter who would run into their arms crying. Instead, they found Maya. -------★★------ Maya is an orphan living quietly in a small rented house in the countryside. She has no money. No powerful background no legendary bloodline. At least, that's what she thinks. She has no idea her birth certificate is basically a hidden treasure map. She is just trying to survive her ordinary life. Unfortunately... The universe looked at her peaceful existence and said: "That seems too easy. Let's add some chaos." ---------- One day at school, Maya meets Mahi Sunaina—the terrifyingly influential head of the Sunaina family. Everything seems normal. Until Maya notices the bracelet on Mahi's hand. Her only thought was: "I think I am doomed." Wait a minute... why does this feel like a suspiciously important plot device? And just like that...Her quiet life ends. 'Congratulations, Maya.' You have unlocked the 'Secret Rich Family Daughter' achievement. Rewards include: - Confused relatives. - Endless family drama. - And absolutely no peaceful days. ---------- The Sunaina family finally gets their missing daughter back. But they soon realize something terrifying. The little girl they lost 14 years ago is gone. The person standing before them is someone completely different. Maya is intelligent, she is suspicious of everyone. Her trust level is lower than a villain's chance of staying dead after a dramatic final battle. The family wanted their daughter back. They got a mystery instead. _________ This world may look like a beautiful romance fantasy. A world filled with destiny, miracles, and characters who somehow always meet at the perfect dramatic moment. But Maya knows the truth, She knows how this story ends. So, she has one simple response: "No." -------- From now on, everyone is a piece on the board. Family members? Potential allies. Enemies? Potential problems. People with suspicious smiles? Definitely problems. -------- Maya doesn't want to be a hero. Unfortunately, fate has other plans. And fate has never learned that forcing a stubborn person into a story usually creates a bigger disaster. ★★ Note : Attention, dear readers. Before you start searching for romance, love triangles, or a collection of handsome characters fighting for Maya's attention... Please stop. The romance department has been permanently closed. The harem application form has been lost, rejected and permanently deleted. Please do not send requests; she is already busy managing disasters. Tag: Female MC Schedule: 1–2 Chapters / Week Chapter Length: 3500–4500 words ------ Warning: Maya is not a hero. She is not a perfect angel who forgives everyone after one emotional speech. She is not the kind of protagonist who sees someone crying and immediately says, "Don't worry, I will save you!" Her first thought is more likely: "How is this my problem?" She is cynical, complicated, and definitely not a walking sunshine generator. She may even make you ask: "Am I supposed to support her plan or call someone?" If you want a sweet protagonist who helps everyone in trouble... This is probably not your cup of tea. But if you want to watch a girl with a complicated past challenge destiny, family drama, and the ridiculous rules of a fantasy world... Welcome. The chaos begins here. ★★★★ I am a new writer, so please forgive any spelling or grammar mistakes. I am still learning, improving, and trying to make this story better with every chapter. Writing a story is easy...Until grammar appears as the final boss. I hope you enjoy the chaos.

Violet Evergarden x Attack on Titan. Year 850. The Colossal Titan appeared and shattered the gate of Trost District. A combined force of the garrison and cadets was deployed to buy time for the evacuation of the remaining civilians. Trost District was eventually reclaimed after the heroic operation led by Commander Pixis. Yet behind the official story recorded in military reports, faint whispers spread of the appearance of a mysterious girl, people called her 'The Battle Angel'. In the final moments of the evacuation, she suddenly appeared, fearlessly striking down Titans despite lacking proper ODM Gear. But the rumors never grew widespread. That very day, the public’s attention was seized by a revelation far more shocking: a cadet named Eren Yeager possessed the power to transform into a Titan. While the public was consumed by debates over whether this power was a threat or a new hope, the Survey Corps moved quietly in the shadows. They uncovered an unregistered ODM Gear, traces believed to be connected to that mysterious girl. Violet Evergarden character belongs to Kana Akatsuki. All characters from Attack on Titan belong to Hajime Isayama.

Ethan leaves a comment on a livestream and doesn’t think much of it afterward, because there are too many people watching and too much noise for anything he says to matter for long. Out of thousands of messages, she remembers his. Not what he said, but his name. Raina doesn’t believe in coincidences because, in her experience, people leave and people forget, and she learned early on that most things don’t stay unless you make them stay. When she recognizes Ethan again after years, she does not rely on chance. She creates the conditions for them to meet again. A job request is made. A meeting follows. Then another, arranged in a way that feels natural enough not to question. Everything appears normal on the surface, and that is exactly why Ethan doesn’t question it, even when something in him quietly tells him he should. He tells himself he is overthinking, that she is simply kind, and that the way she shows up exactly when he needs her is nothing more than timing. But the closer she gets, the harder it becomes for him to separate his daily life from her presence in it. Because Raina doesn’t chase. She keeps. And once you matter to her, distance is no longer something that remains an option.
