Gods Among Men - Season 1

Ancient protectors. Modern tyrants. A city caught in the crossfire. In 2026, power is measured in military might and tech—until the earth splits open. Tade, a seventeen-year-old caught in the chaos, awakens the Ayanfe, legendary guardians from the ancient kingdom of Ile-Ominira, who have been dormant for 500 years. But the legends were lies. The Ayanfe haven't returned to save humanity; they’ve come to rule it. Led by the iron-fisted Ile and his fanatical Sons of the Earth, these ancient gods view modern Lagos as a kingdom to be reclaimed by force. As skyscrapers crumble under Ile’s terraforming power, the modern world’s defences prove useless. The government, paralysed by the arrival of beings that defy every law of science, can only watch as the city's streets become a divine battlefield. Trapped in a world that no longer makes sense, Tade’s only hope lies in a fragile alliance with three rogue Ayanfe who refuse to follow Ile’s tyranny: Ina: The master of the Eternal Flame. Omi: The guardian of the tides. Irin: The unbreakable spirit of metal and war. Together, they must stand against the Sons of the Earth in a desperate bid to save Lagos. In a clash between primitive gods and a modern world pushed to the brink, Tade will learn that when the earth rises, the only choice is to fight or be buried. The Awakening has begun. Will you bow or will you burn? [Release Schedule] MASS RELEASE: 3 Chapters on Monday (Launch Day)! DAILY UPDATES: 18:00 WAT / 01:00 CST **Don't miss the Awakening. Add to your Library now!**

[Mature Content R18+] [Slow-Burn Dark Romance] Two days before my wedding, my fiancé told me he would marry my twin sister, because it was her dying wish. My family, his family, everyone dear to me, turned me into a villain for being defiant. The decision was final. The bride had changed. They forced me into a golden cage, waiting for my turn to be another substitute. Then he came. The man who should have been my enemy offered his hand. Led us into one wild night. "Be my wife. Six years. Let's have a contract for exactly that long." "You lost your mind. You promised-" "And I'll give you five years. You can be free. Do whatever you want with the Kingston name. I promised that." "Wh... what?" "But you must promise me, you will be back, and let's live like we burn for each other in that last year." "Rafael... what are you planning to?" "Get things back to their right place." I was tired of being anyone's pawn. So, I play my own game. Five years later, I am back. Revenge is an understatement. The price for my suffering is due. My children keep asking for their father. They'll meet him soon, but there's a problem:  I’m not sure who the real father is. "Viona... I never stop loving you. Tell me they are my flesh, right? I want you back. I want us back." My ex-fiancé shamelessly pleaded before me. "They are mine. The four of them are mine." And there he was, my contracted husband declared with a glare that was ready to burn the whole society down. This should be a simple game of power. But love always meddles between the players. ====== Author's Note: This Novel is a character-driven plot with slow-burn smut. Every character has their own motivation and is layered.

The Mafia Lord's Secret Lover

Evelyn Walters was the perfect heiress, until one reckless night with her father’s greatest enemy ruined everything. Pregnant, disgraced, and cast out of the Walters family, she left with nothing but her unborn child. Years later, she's survived. But as a single mother, the life she built was fragile until the man from her past discovered the truth. Now he wants her and his son. But how can Evelyn trust the father of her child... when he's also the enemy of the man who raised her? **** Excerpt: "B-Boss... the woman you slept with that night... she wasn't the supermodel the company just signed," Dylan stammered, his voice trembling. Axel's brow furrowed even further. He tried digging through the hazy, alcohol-soaked memories of that night.  Of course, he remembered the party. He remembered the whiskey. But the woman? Nope. His brain served up a blank slate. "Who was she?" Dylan swallowed. "The first daughter of William Walters." "Cough! Cough!" Axel coughed violently, his face turning red and eyes wide with shock. He never thought that woman would end up in his bed.  --- Curiosity won, as always. Evelyn grabbed the remote and hit the power button. The screen lit up, and her jaw dropped. Her eyes went wide, as if the Grim Reaper himself had just stepped out of the TV to ask for her phone number. “What the…? Why does my personal source of misery pop up the second I turn this thing on?” Because there he was, Axel Knight, gliding out of his luxury car like some corporate deity on his way to a business banquet. Evelyn scrambled for the remote to turn it off, but of course, fate had other plans. Axel turned to the camera and gave a casual wave, acknowledging the paparazzi vultures lined up outside. She hated to admit it, but the man looked sinfully good in his signature black suit and high turtleneck, his sleek black hair framing a face that could stop traffic and quite possibly her breathing. Then, suddenly, her stomach clenched. Her hand instinctively rubbed her flat belly. “Little tenant, did you just say you recognize him?”
