But why is the second prince following him around and blatantly flirting with him? _______ A long arm that looked muscular, even with it being fully clothed, reached out above him. "Is this the one you want?" A familiar voice asked, sending shivers down Adrien's spine. It's the guy from the bookstore! Adrien nodded his head to answer the guy's question, forgetting that he probably wasn't in the best of position to be seen. "Ye-yeah." Long, thick fingers wrapped around the spine of the book, swiftly pulling it down from the top shelf. "Understanding Economics?" The guy read the title out loud. "Mr. James' class?" "Yes." The guy, who was standing close to Adrien, basically caging him in between his chest and the bookcase, handed him the book. The guy then reached up one more time and grabbed a green-colored book. "I suggest reading this one if you haven't taken the assessment yet." Adrien took the book from him. "Thank you." A deep voice rumbled from behind him as the guy laughed. He then took a step back, releasing Adrien from his confinement. "Try that again, but to my face this time."

EXCERPT: "I am not your wife." His humorless smile taunted me. "Our marriage certificate says otherwise." "I don't remember getting married to you, or ever getting involved with you." His fingers dragged down to my jawline, brushing over the skin with feather-like touches. "That's alright. I'll remember for both of us." "I don't want to be with you." Tears filled my eyes against my will. "Where's my family?" "I'm right here, Dahlia. I am your family now. It doesn't matter that you don't remember now. I'll remember for the both of us." . . . He says I chose him. I don't remember why. The last thing I expected after waking up from a nine-month-long coma was a man attached to my side, claiming to be my husband. But there he was. Calm, infuriatingly composed, so sure of himself, and dangerously good at making me believe we were something real. All I have are vague pieces of a night I can't forget and a man I'm not sure I can trust. Maybe he's my ruin. Maybe he's my salvation. Either way, he claims I'm his forever. *** She doesn't remember the night she chose me. One impulsive night in Vegas tied us together forever. One I could never forget. Now she looks at me like I'm a stranger. Maybe I am. The smartest, most selfless thing to do would be letting her go, letting her find her way back to me, but I'm not as selfless. I'm as selfish as they come, and this time, I wasn't letting her slip through my fingers; not to fate, not to fear, and not even to death. This time, I was going to take her heart, too.

(trigger warning. This book contains mature themes) ****** "I can't..." she gasped between broken moans, her voice trembling somewhere between pain and pleasure. Every thrust seemed to blur the line between surrender and defiance. Then she whispered a name between her sweet cries ...it wasn’t mine. I froze. A slow, humorless smile curved my lips as the sound of his name filled the space between us. “Raph…” she breathed. I leaned in, my mouth brushing her ear. Feeling her tremble from touch until my teeth nibbled her earlobes hard enough to make her whimper and her fold to clench around my fingers. “Wrong name, Lynn.” I hissed, withdrawing from the warmth of her insides. I felt her body tense. She clawed at my shoulders, a desperate plea in every touch. “Don’t…” she whimpered. Those jade-like eyes unravelled me that moment. I could feel the ache in my trousers. A troublesome little viper. A cruel smile traced my lips hiding my emotions. “You called the wrong name,” I murmured, my voice low, dangerous. “And bad girls deserve to be punished.” Her glossy eyes met mine... so full of confusion, want, and power she didn’t yet understand. If she only knew how close I was to breaking. Because the only name she should be calling… was mine. Lucien. I craved it as badly as the air I breathe. ****** For better or for worse, till death do us part. That was their vows at the altar, but her husband broke them first.. He claims an open marriage is the solution to their childless marriage and that it's to protect her own interests. But all Braelyn sees is a prison built from guilt and lies. One heartbroken night, she stumbles into a karaoke bar and into the arms of Lucien. A man shrouded in mystery, rebellion, and danger. His very presence tells her to run but it also gives her the solace she craved. She never expected to see him again after she ran, forgetting his sinful existence, but life wasn't done making a joke out of her. Lucien isn't just any man, but one who can destroy everything she believes in. The man she was never meant to meet. Her husband's uncle The black sheep of the Volkov dynasty. A man whose desire will ruin her. Lucien knows she can't be his, but he was never a man who respected social norms. He doesn't care about anything but her every sin and touch. All he wants… is her, no matter how sinful it gets.

When Clover Walsh first moves to Ceder, a small town surrounded by woods, he wants nothing to do with Jackson Hemming, the weird kid with absolutely no personal space boundaries. Jackson follows Clover around school all day, even following him home! Clover’s pretty sure he has even caught him sitting outside of his window at night. Surely a normal person would find themselves very distraught if some giant 6'5 kid was following them around all day. Right? So why is Clover, despite his best efforts not to, finding himself growing more and more attracted to Jackson with each passing day? "Mate." Upcoming alpha Jackson Hemming had often heard that word thrown around during the 18 years he’d spent in his pack. Whenever it was annoyingly brought up Jackson always scoffed and left the room. Could you imagine it? The vicious Jackson Hemming with a mate! Yeah right... However, all of that changed the night he met Clover.

For centuries, the kingdoms feared the night the moon would begin to die—its light fading until only a thin, trembling glow remained. Under that dying moon, a curse was said to awaken: a power capable of destroying kingdoms… or saving them. I never wanted to be part of that prophecy. I never wanted power, destiny, or bloodshed. But the night I crossed paths with the creature hidden behind the curse—eyes sharp as the night itself, presence colder than shadows—I felt my world shift. He wasn’t the monster the legends promised. He was something far more dangerous. Bound by a secret that could shatter everything, I am forced to walk the thin line between fear and fate, hunted by those who want the curse destroyed… and those who want it unleashed. Now, under the veil of the dying moon, I must decide whether to run from my destiny— or embrace the darkness that has been waiting for me all along.

But when a mission goes sideways and she’s taken by James Carrizo, the infamous, unhinged king of Italy’s underworld, her life fractures in ways she never saw coming.

Trapped in his domain, Alya becomes a bargaining chip in a war she never agreed to play. But she’s no pawn. Every attempt to break her only sharpens her edge, and every twisted exchange between them tightens a thread neither of them meant to pull. And somewhere between the violence, the obsession, and the power struggles, she starts to uncover the truth behind her father’s silence, and the real reason James wanted her alive. In a world where betrayal is currency and desire is a weapon, Alya must decide who the real enemy is… before she becomes the next casualty.

Now eight years later, when an accident lands Artis in the hospital and Ethan at her bedside, old feelings resurface quickly and so do the doubts that tore them apart. He remembers the way things ended. She remembers the hurt. Neither of them is sure if the timing is finally right, or if history is about to repeat itself. Told through dual perspectives and timelines, Christmas Lights traces the fragile line between first love and second chances. Artis and Ethan must decide whether the bond they once shared can survive the truth of who they’ve become. +++ Hii, Kai here. So "Christmas Lights" is a pretty atypical book (especially on Webnovel) because each chapter only has a maximum of 100 words. But you are in for a ride because less words = more emotions pumped into them. This is a work I am very proud of and wrote during a difficult period in life. Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. I've been writing professionally for 10 years and now I'm on Webnovel to practice consistency. I'm not that good with writing blurbs but I can assure you that my writing is great. It'll be wonderful if you decide to give me and my books a chance. If you liked the story, consider adding the book to your library and leaving a review. You can also contact me via my socials.

Yeri was once a succubus, a powerful and irresistible seductress who fed on desire. Now reborn as a stunning young woman in the modern world, she must navigate the confusing collision of her human innocence and her demonic memories. One night, fate leads her into the path of Shin Keir, a dangerously magnetic and notorious CEO known for getting everything he wants—except peace. Their accidental encounter sparks an intense, uncontrollable passion, and a single night together changes everything. *** Excerpt: The dream had returned. Same eerie forest. Same surreal woman in the crimson dress. But this time, the setting had changed slightly. She now stood at the edge of a cliff made of jagged, glowing red rocks that resembled oversized rubies. Scarlet butterflies floated around her like living embers. A thick fog blanketed the area like some forbidden realm between worlds. She turned to him, her smile soft, sweet—and somehow tragic. She was heartbreakingly beautiful, ethereal yet forlorn, like a love story written in fading ink. Shin had tried to call out, but the wind swallowed his voice. As he stepped forward, the woman mouthed something. He couldn't hear her. Then, in a horrifying instant, her body tilted, and she plummeted off the cliff. The despair that followed wasn't just a feeling—it was a full-body, soul-tearing scream that never made it past his throat. Without hesitation, Shin leapt after her. He awoke convulsing, drenched in cold sweat. His eyes gleamed with a strange madness, a devil struggling behind the polished CEO exterior. *** Disclaimer- Places and characters are all works of fiction.
