Broken and betrayed by those she loved and cared for, Scarlett wants revenge. A revenge that drove her into making a deal with the king of Dons—Xavier Grey. A ruthless and cold-hearted Don whose past held dark secrets that made him the man he was today. The initial deal was no love, just pleasure. But Scarlett began to develop feelings for him, feelings that could forever destroy her. Because in his world, where blood is shed mercilessly and only the strong survive, there’s no room for emotions. ^^^^^^^^^^ “We could make it work, Xavier,” I cried out. “Just give it a chance, pl……” My heart leaped out of my chest when he slowly looked up at me, instantly shutting me up. Those eyes—dark, empty, yet beautiful. I once feared them with everything in me, and now that fear was coming back. Cutting through my airway. I shivered backwards. “Please…” I whispered, clinching to the fragile garment on my aching chest. “The deal is over,” his cold voice broke through. “Get the fuck out of my house.” He spoke, and I felt my heart shatter into a thousand pieces. ************** “Don’t even think of it,” Damien’s voice broke in. “You can’t possibly be falling in love with her.” He spoke with a serious expression, but I could still see it—the lurking fear hidden in his eyes as he paced about. “You know what happens when you fall in love, or even have anything to do with a girl,” he said again. “It’s best not to reopen closed wounds…” “Yeah, thanks for the reminder,” I replied sarcastically before walking out. His voice trailed behind me— calling me back, but I didn’t look back. Not for once. I fucking hate this world. I can’t wait for it to all be over. ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Strictly adult content.

Qin Yue, famous for his unlucky constitution felt like he had used up all his lifetimes worth of luck to leave the village. But that was it. Even after leaving, bad luck plagued him insistently and robbed him of various opportunities. That was why he was skeptical when his friend found him a cheap house.

In a palace where deception is law and freedom is impossible, can Rosalind survive and who will truly claim her heart?

On the night before her wedding, Arabella Montclair believed she was the luckiest wolf alive. Mated to the powerful Alpha Victor Ashford. Chosen by the Moon Goddess. Finally free from a lifetime of living in her stepmother’s shadow. She poured her heart into planning the perfect ceremony, convinced that tomorrow would mark the beginning of her happily ever after. Instead, it became the day her world shattered. Before the entire Silver Moon Pack, Arabella walks into her own wedding hall, only to find her mate standing at the altar with another bride.

He did not expect her. Among the women paraded before him as entertainment, one figure stands out, a girl in torn white lace, head bowed, silent yet defiant. She smells of pain… and something far rarer. She does not belong there. As secrets unravel and hidden truths surface, the rejected breeder may be more than what anyone believes. And the king who fears nothing may soon find himself entangled in a fate neither of them saw coming. Because sometimes, the one deemed unworthy by a pack… is the one destined to stand beside a king.

Although "history" is a strange word right now as what I'm about to teach you all is still unfolding." The professor says as he turns around to face over a 100 students after writing his name on the black board with a chalk.- "A year ago today there was a meteor shower, some may describe it as beautiful, talk about the way it cracked open the like glass, how the intensity lit up the sky making it almost look like it was mid-day, the trails of blue and silver fire following along.

I’ve seen a lot of people work on this book. Funny enough, most of them never finish it or even make it to 100 chapters. So I decided to take it on myself. And this time, I intend to see it through to the end. Enjoy. ___ A Transmigrator… you don’t see that every day.....right??? Well, somehow, I transmigrated into the Naruto world, Am an Uchiha. Sounds lucky? Yeah… not quite. I thought I’d live out a painfully ordinary life as just another nameless shinobi. No legendary talent. No destined greatness. Just missions, bloodshed, and an unmarked grave. Good thing I got a system. Rinnegan? Flying Thunder God? How overpowered can I actually become?

Rolan, a 35-year-old office worker from Earth, never imagined his life would end under the divine wheels of the most feared deity in all dimensions — the God of Reincarnation and Transmigration, known only as Truck-kun. But fate, it seems, had grander plans. Awakening in the body of a dead teenage cabin boy drifting through the perilous seas of the One Piece world, Rolan quickly discovers his new vessel wasn’t ordinary — it came bound to a mysterious and powerful System. Armed with this cheat-like ability and memories of a world that once viewed pirates as fiction, Rolan decides to abandon all notions of destiny or morality. In this chaotic sea ruled by monsters, Marines, and legends, he’ll carve out a new path — one driven not by justice or dreams... but by freedom. Will he rise as a pirate feared across the Grand Line? After all — this is no longer Luffy’s story. This is Rolan’s era — the tale of a man reborn to live as he wishes, in a world where only the strong can truly be free.

He threw money on the bed after our one-night stand. I threw it back in his face at his own inauguration. By sundown, we were engaged. By the week's end — married. Franklin Flemington needed a wife to secure his empire. I needed a miracle to save my family. For two years, we played our parts flawlessly — the golden couple the whole city envied. Behind closed doors, I was invisible to him. When the two years were up, I handed him divorce papers without blinking. He stared at me like I'd lost my mind. "I've given you everything a husband should. What more do you want from me, Octavia?" I smiled, signed my name, and walked out. I thought that was the end. I thought I'd finally won. I forgot one thing — Franklin Flemington has never lost anything in his life. And he has no intention of starting with me. Game on.

"I'm a regressor" Adriel said to his brother after years of contemplation the heavy weight now lifting off his shoulders. He looked at his brother in response he was expecting more of a shock expression instead of a 'Are you done?' Look but this is alright too. "No shit" Racine replied before sipping his drink once more, "Look I don't know how your harem and your goons don't know. Don't care but you didn't exactly hide it well"

How generous of you." I rolled my eyes. "Hey babe, I'm not here to kill you, just to casually drink your blood and then gaslight you about it later." "Oh, so you do remember?" Shit. "You're being unreasonable." Unreasonable? Me? "You literally grew fangs and decided to have me as appetizer, now, you managed to stalk me and get my address and I'm the unreasonable one?" I heard him mutter a prayer. "Please, open the door." That sounded like a threat. I didn't like that. "Does garlic work against you?" "I'm not a freaking vampire." "Then what are you?" I yelled. "I promise, I'm not going to bite you. Please, just open the door and hear me out." "You're not going to bite me?" I asked cautiously. "No." "Are you lying?" "…No?"
