Two Alphas. One Throne. One Secret that could burn it all down. Elias Thorne was born to lead. With a towering frame, a lethal combat record, and the blood of high-ranking ancestors in his veins, his ascension to the head of the North Ridge Pack was a mathematical certainty. But when his secondary gender results are finally unsealed, they reveal a devastating anomaly: Elias is a recessive Omega. To the Council, he is no longer an heir… he is a political tool. To keep North Ridge from collapsing, they orchestrate a "Strategic Union" with Julian Vane, the most feared and ruthless Alpha of the Southern Wastes. The world is told it’s a historic alliance between two dominant Alphas. In reality, Julian has been brought in to secretively "claim" the man the world thinks is his equal. But Julian has a secret of his own: he is scent-blind. Unable to smell the pheromones that define their society, he judges a man by his steel and his stare. He expects a rival to crush; instead, he finds a partner who challenges him at every turn. As the pressure of the merger mounts and Elias’s suppressed biology begins to revolt, the lines between rivalry and desire blur. Elias must play the part of the cold, untouchable Alpha, even as his own body betrays him the moment Julian is near. In a world built on the scent of power, what happens when the most dangerous lie of all starts to feel like the truth?

Sold in a secret underground auction to the highest bidder, Jade Anderson braces herself to be claimed by a man twice her age, until a single, earth-shattering bid slices through the room and silences every voice. Purchased for a price no one dares to challenge, she is delivered not to a faceless buyer, but to the most feared man in the criminal underworld, a ruler whose empire is built on blood, secrets, and absolute control. Escape was plausible, but why would she run off now that she was under the same roof as the man who killed her father?

My name is Naomi Price. I’m twenty-three, cursed with an annoyingly flawless complexion, and my life used to be completely unremarkable. My biggest mistake was paying eight bucks for a americano at The Roasted Cafe. That’s where some coward slipped a lethal cocktail into my mug, and I ended up choking on my own spit on a sticky laminate floor. Death was supposed to be a dirt nap. Instead, I woke up with a migraine, exactly ten years in the past. Only, it isn't my past. The world I woke up in is wrong. The skies are a polluted, bruised purple, and the streets are crawling with heavily armed zealots who call themselves The Legion. They own everything now. And the kicker? Everyone is walking around with powers, dictated by a mysterious, floating System that treats human lives like a twisted, high-stakes game. You want to survive this dystopia? You rank up. You want to find out who murdered you? You bleed for it. But the universe has a sick, twisted sense of humor when it comes to leveling up. You can't just grind your way to the top by beating the shit out of low-tier thugs in an alley. To climb the ladder and claim a higher rank, the System locks you in a pocket dimension and forces you to fight an upgraded, deadlier version of yourself. You have to literally kick your own ass to evolve. If you lose? You die for real. And as if dealing with a fascist regime and fighting my own shadow wasn't enough, I brought a passenger back with me. A fractured piece of my own subconscious woke up when I died. She is an arrogant, unhinged mastermind who thinks she is God’s gift to violence. I just want to solve my murder, rip the Legion to shreds, and fix this broken timeline. My other half? She just wants to finger-paint with their blood. So, grab a helmet and buckle the fuck up. We have exactly fifty chapters to sort this colossal clusterfuck out, and my patience is already running on empty.

Raven Zhao and Aidan Chen belong to the same circle, but he is the center, and she is a tangent. Embrace the flawed obsession. Do not push away the love I offer. Stars whisper your existence to me. How far will you go to hide? The shine in your eyes is affection. If not, hate me with all your being. Share a bond with me; I can bear it. Even if you take me as an enemy. -Aidan Chen

A thousand years ago, a young man named Kaizer died in a horrific accident while crossing a treacherous mountain path. But death was not the end of his story.

Yet his suffering does not end there. The goddess brands him with a cruel title: The Sacred Goddess of Taboo—a being destined to awaken, inspire, and spread forbidden desires wherever she goes.
