[Naruto] Time Travel: Starting with Hashirama's Cells Betraying the Leaf: Sasuke's Path to Godhood The Otsutsuki God, Shibai, descended. And the Shinobi World was erased. No amount of willpower, friendship, or Jutsu mattered. Sasuke Uchiha watched his wife, his daughter, his only true friend, and his disciples get slaughtered like insects. In his dying breath, sacrificing a Mangekyou Sharingan for Izanagi, and with the final desperate help of Orochimaru, he rewrote the timeline. Drip. Drip. Sasuke opened his eyes. Cold rain battered his face. He was standing at the Valley of the End. Across from him was a young Naruto Uzumaki, shouting about bonds and bringing him back to the Hidden Leaf. A blood-red Mangekyou spun in the moonlight. This time, Sasuke didn't feel rage or petty rivalry. He only felt the cold, calculating weight of the apocalypse to come. To hell with playing ninja games. To hell with the hypocritical will of fire. If a mortal body cannot kill a god... then I will become a monster that even gods fear. Abandoning the original timeline's foolish path, Sasuke embraces Orochimaru's forbidden research. Fusing the pinnacle of Uchiha ocular power with Senju Hashirama's cells, he begins his ruthless evolution. From Wood Release to the Rinnegan. From a rogue ninja to a true Otsutsuki. But is becoming an Otsutsuki enough to stop Shibai? No. He will have to devour them all. [What to Expect] Ruthless MC: Pragmatic, cold, and utterly unforgiving. No "Talk no Jutsu." Extreme Evolution: Scientific ninja tools + Bloodline fusion. Watch Sasuke hack the genetic code of the Shinobi world. Fast-paced Action: Curbstomping original timeline threats with future knowledge and absolute power. Dark Progression: Walking the path of a supreme deity, sacrificing whatever it takes to save the future.

He was forbidden. My brother's best friend. Also the most dangerous man in the country. And I signed myself over to him. Leah Thorne had one rule: stay away from Dimitri Valentino. It shouldn't have been difficult. He was ruthless, feared, and devastatingly beautiful in the way that only truly dangerous things are. The kind of man who owned nightclubs, commanded armies, and made grown men weep with a single look. The kind of man her brother Mike trusted with his life. The kind of man she had absolutely no business wanting. But one shattered marriage, one bottle of whiskey, and one catastrophically bad decision later, Leah wakes up in Dimitri's bed with a signed contract on the nightstand and six months of her life no longer her own. Her body. His rules. No exceptions. The contract is iron-clad, the penalty clause suffocating — fifty million dollars she doesn't have. And Dimitri Valentino, the Wolf of the Italian underworld, has absolutely no intention of letting her go. He says he'll ruin her for other men. He's not lying. Because beneath the cold control and the thousand-dollar suits is a man who has wanted her for seven sinful years — who has memorized the curve of her smile, the sound of her laugh, and exactly how to take her apart piece by piece until the only word left in her vocabulary is his name. Eve came to him broken, looking to feel wanted. She never expected to feel owned. She never expected to love it. Six Months Contract With The Mafia God is a scorching dark romance about forbidden hunger, dangerous obsession, and the catastrophic moment a good girl stops running from the wolf who has always been hunting her. Some contracts change everything. Some men are worth the fine print.

Before time, before matter, there was the Absolute Being—an existence born from nothing and existing within an endless void. That void, stretched infinitely in every direction, offering no sound, no light, or any change. Eternity passed in silence, and isolation became the Being’s only companion. To escape the crushing stillness, the Absolute Being began to create. From within that emptiness, emerged countless worlds—each one shaped by different laws, each seeded with entities and lifeforms of staggering variety. To all of these creations, the Being granted power—forces that allowed them to build civilizations, wage wars, forge peace, and govern the fragile balance of their worlds. Some used their gifts to protect existence, while others sought domination or annihilation. Entire histories unfolded beneath the Being’s distant gaze. All of it served a single purpose: entertainment. The struggles, triumphs, and tragedies of mortals filled the Void with motion and meaning. Yet as ages turned into eternities, even creation itself grew predictable. The rise and fall of worlds blurred together, and the Absolute Being found itself once more staring into boredom as vast as the Void it had tried to escape. At last, the Being reached a single inevitable conclusion. If creation was no longer enough… then there was only one way left to truly escape boredom. And so, the final experiment began. A/N : Volume 2 and onwards will contain much darker themes, controversial topics and scenes, as well as a few adult content. Please bare that in mind when reading it. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!

"Luca, please…" she cried. "You need to see who the devil really is. And decide if you want me that way," he said. "Because this is who I am. You either accept it or reject it." Luca's hand reached for a knife from the array of tools spread meticulously on the desk. "I wanted to prolong his suffering…" he murmured. "Luca…" she whispered. "But since this is a show and tell…" Without a pause, he cut the rope holding Inferi's wrists, letting the man drop heavily to the floor with a thud that made the room shudder. Inferi's eyes, wide with terror, flicked to Vee as his body twisted weakly under the weight of his injuries. "This isn't one of those times when you ask me to let someone go, I am going to kill him right here." "You have two choices," he continued. "Walk away right now, and I will accept that you will never accept who I am. Or stay and watch me kill him, to prove to me that you accept all of me, that you want all of me." "God, please, Luca, don't do this." Behind Luca, Inferi struggled weakly on the floor. Luca looked only at her. "It's simple, Vee. I am giving you a choice. I don't have a gun to your head, now, do I? Are you ashamed of who I am, or do you accept who I am?" "It's not so simple!" Vee yelled. "You're asking me to stand here while you take a life." "I will count to ten." He gestured with the knife toward the steel door behind her. "There is the door. Here is me." "Jesus!" Vee bit down on her lower lip. She squeezed her eyes shut. "Jesus Christ!" "One…" "Two…" She stepped toward him. "Three…" "I'm not running." She moved closer. "I will not run. I will stay." "Four…" Vee drew in a shaky breath, steadying herself against the tidal wave inside her. "I meant what I said last night. I said I love you. I meant it. But don't subject me to this. It will not change how I feel about you. It won't." She stepped even closer, until the knife hovered inches from her hip. "But it will most definitely change me." She swallowed hard. "If you make me stand here and watch this, you are not testing my love. You are reshaping me into something I may never recognize again." Her hands came up slowly and pressed against his chest. "I love the man who protects. The man who terrifies everyone else but holds me like I matter." Her eyes glistened, but she did not look away. "I know what you are. I accept what you are. But do not ask me to become it." "Five…" Luca moved behind Inferi now, the knife hovering at his throat. Vee's feet rooted to the floor, the edge of Luca's jacket gripped tightly in her fists. Her eyes, brimming with tears locked onto his, daring him to see, really see, what she was becoming in his presence. "Six…" he continued. He held the knife steady against Inferi's skin, a cold, absolute line of judgment, waiting. And in that pause, Luca realized a part of him wanted her to run, desperately. He wanted her to bolt, to retreat from this room of blood and fear, because maybe, just maybe, if she ran, he would see the futility of the obsession clawing at him from the inside. "Seven…" he murmured. "Eight…" "Nine…" Synopsis: She insulted the devil. He decided to own her. Veronica Scalese walks into New York’s elite club, ‘Commissioned’ by accident—and mouths off to the wrong man; Luciano Genovese popularly known as ‘The Devil’. He grants favours but gets your soul in return. When Luca comes to collect a debt from her father, the payment demanded is flesh. Veronica becomes both Luca’s weakness and his obsession. He burns his empire to the ground to keep her. Undressed by the Mafia God is a mafia romance story where power is foreplay, love is a liability, and the most terrifying thing a god can do… is fall.

I died. A former loan shark with nothing but scars and regrets. Then I woke up in the middle of a BL novel—inside the body of a minor villain fated to die for daring to touch a rare, pregnant male omega. So I did what any sane person would do: I ran. Far from the dukes. Far from the plot. Far from trouble. Then the omega literally fell into my arms. Sunshine-sweet, stupidly pretty, very pregnant... and followed by four of the most dangerous alphas in the kingdom. Now I’m protecting him. And his beta best friend? Cold, calm, clearly hates me... and somehow looks hotter every time he glares. One rare omega. One repressed beta. Four furious dukes. This wasn’t in the script—but neither was falling in love. Twice. NB: Love triangle, eventually turns into poly relationship. Alpha- Beta- Omega relationship. SMUT scenes, viewer discretion is advised.

What makes dragons strong? It's not their power or magic, but their mind. Arrogance, greed, Iron Will, and the lack of human restraints. What would happen if you threw such a creature into human society? Would they understand humans? What does love even mean to them? This is the situation that our MC, Arad Orion found himself in. A newborn dragon bringing "Might make Right" to the humanoids, but why? Due to an abnormal condition, the mighty void dragons are on the brink of extinction. Their bodies have suddenly started rejecting their kind. Due to that, Arad's mother dropped his egg into a forest where he could hatch safely, leaving him with a fragment of her consciousness and informing him of the condition of their race. From that point, his goal became clear. To save their race by either finding a cure for their condition or going the second route of making more void dragons. But, sadly, nothing is ever that easy. Finding a cure is almost impossible. Arad is still practically a newborn and cannot tap into the terrifying might of his race, and his rarity makes him a prime target for mages and scholars seeking to study the dying race. Dragons are arrogant, proud, and vicious. Yet those feeling extends to those whom they love. You who touched a dragon's love, Retribution is an insult, and life is a crime. Beware as merely existing draws the dragon's wrath. Follow Arad on his journey as he grows from a naive wyrmling to a grown dragon with enough wisdom and power to stand with the strongest of the world. *** If you liked the story, please support it with power stones and comments!

In a world where psychic power determines destiny, every person undergoes an initiation ceremony at eighteen. Talent rank decides everything. When Zhao Mu awakens the lowest possible E-rank talent, the verdict is immediate: Hopeless. A wasted future. His ability—[Demon Clown]—is mocked as useless. After all, without spiritual talent, how far could skill training really go? But what no one realizes is this: [Demon Clown] doesn’t just increase skill proficiency— it increases everything. And it has no limit. Breathing becomes cultivation. Walking turns into movement techniques. Sleeping evolves into profound enlightenment. Breathing → Turtle Breathing → Supreme Exhalation Art Walking → Light Steps → Swift Phantom Movement Sleeping → Deep Sleep → Zhuangzi’s Butterfly Dream No matter how ordinary the action, once activated, proficiency grows endlessly. While others chase rare abilities and high-rank talents, Zhao Mu quietly trains the basics—until those basics evolve into god-level techniques. By the time the world realizes the truth, the so-called “E-rank trash” has already surpassed them all. This is the story of a man who proves that the strongest talent is the one that never stops improving.
