twisted

Long ago, in the back of an ambulance, two grieving sisters Lilly and Millie made a pact—a promise to punish those who failed their mother. Lilly was too young, too shattered, and eventually forgot. Not that it matters since her twin sister Lilly succumbed to her injuries obtained in the fatal crash. Now, bodies are piling up, and every piece of evidence points to the remaining twin. Can Millie prove her innocence before it’s too late?

"Who knew that something so beautiful could come out of Ronan." He says, as he runs the backs of his fingers up and down across my nipple "Who would have imagined," he says slowly, savoring every word, "that something so exquisite could be born from a man as vile as your father." His eyes trace me with deliberate leisure, stripping, measuring. I felt skinned under his gaze. "A rapist," he continues lightly, as if reciting lines from a book. "A butcher of children. A coward who kills pregnant women and plunges his weapon into a friend's back." He stepped closer. Too close. "And yet," he murmurs, voice dropping, "he left this behind." His smile sharpened. I can't move. I can't breathe. "You should be grateful," he goes on, almost kindly. "If you had been born uglier, I would have killed you like the rest." A pause, then his hands on my cheek, gentle. "But beauty like yours," he adds, eyes darkening, "is worth breaking slowly." * What is worse than being rejected once? Being rejected two more times. Xira Valeen is a defective wolf who never thought she would get a mate. So when she is mated by one who only wants her for her birthright while his brother only wants her because she rises an uncontrollable hunger in him, she is doubtful. Then they reject her, she accepts quietly. Their enemy steps up and claims her as a mate just to use her against her former mates then he also rejects her. Three times she is rejected. Shunned and alone, Xira disappears and when she returns all three Alphas kneel before her, begging for forgiveness and swearing that they want and love only her. Hardened by their betrayal, she ignores them and joins the Mating Hunt, intent on finding the mate who can save her... However, the Moon goddess sure has a cruel sense of humor, or can this time be different?

she died and then the devil played the worst joke on her she was reborn she wanted nothing but got everything with a tag

People shunned me, labeling me a defective Alpha long before I understood what that meant. The only person who ever stayed by my side was Alex. We learned how to survive on the streets together—until he couldn’t take it anymore and started selling drugs. Luck had never touched my life. I was the one who got caught. The woman who stopped me was powerful enough to destroy me in her own twisted way. "A spoon," she said. I didn’t understand how it was possible, but she meant to reduce me to a mere spoon. Then she let me go, warning me never to appear in front of her again. But... I was a really, really unlucky person and met her again. And again. Until it became impossible to walk away from her. Being spared by her felt dangerously close to being chosen for something. Despite knowing it would destroy me, I found myself yearning for more of her. I had no one who truly cared about me. Except Alex. So her mercy slowly began to feel like belonging. ***** It's Omegaverse, where Female Alpha's has a dick.

[Mc Top/Seme x Multiple Bottom/Uke] R18+ / DARK / PSYCHOLOGICAL / MATURE / YAOI / HAREM / BL PLEASE BE AWARE BEFORE YOU READ!!! THIS IS NOT A SUNSHINE AND RAINBOW NOVEL! MANIPULATION GAME Jang Taesoo rules the shadows as head of the Aurora Consortium – a ruthless organization built on lies, violence, and unyielding control. He crafts perfect obedience from his devoted “Muses” on an exclusive adult livestreaming platform, deriving sick satisfaction from breaking strong wills and bending even the most stubborn bodies to his every command. When the weight of his empire grows suffocating, he retreats to Lost in Paradise – a romance novel he’s memorized cover to cover, fixated not on its golden female lead Cha Harin, but on the five powerful straight men who fight tooth and nail to claim her heart. A dark hunger burns within him as he reads – a primal urge to take these untouchable titans and mold them into something entirely his own. When Taesoo saves a young boy from an oncoming truck, he is struck down and killed – only to awaken before an ancient Entity that admits his death was an accident, caused by its overflowing power after 12,000 years of slumber. In his final moments, his feverish focus on the novel merged his brutal world with the story’s, creating a twisted new reality where he still commands the Aurora Consortium… and where these five men walk the earth as living, breathing prey. Given the choice to return to his conquered life or stay, Taesoo’s lips curl into a predatory grin. Boredom has long been his enemy – but now, his inner beast roars awake, craving to break what has never been broken. He will shatter the novel’s saccharine romance, tear apart their devotion to Harin, and unleash his most depraved desires: to bend these straight, powerful men to his will, to train them like his Muses, to carve his mark into their very souls until their strength becomes submission and their loyalty transforms into obsessive, desperate worship. With cold determination and a heart full of darkness, Taesoo prepares to hunt. One by one, he will track them down, test their limits, and tame them all – for in his hands, every man is just another toy to be broken, remade, and claimed as his own.

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?”

Lumira has no history — only a name and a life she built alone. When men in black suits appear at her door with a photograph of a woman who looks exactly like her, her world collapses in a single sentence: “You’ve been chosen.” Taken against her will and delivered into the ruthless mafia empire of Zarek Volkov, Lumira learns the truth — she wasn’t kidnapped. She was selected. Chosen to replace a dead woman. Chosen to wear another name. Chosen to live another life. Chosen to become a ghost’s shadow. Zarek doesn’t want love. He doesn’t want healing. He doesn’t want consent. He wants continuity. Cold. Dominant. Untouchable. A man who rules through fear and silence. A king who doesn’t negotiate — he commands. As Lumira is stripped of identity, freedom, and choice, a psychological war begins between possession and resistance, control and survival, obsession and defiance. Because she refuses to disappear. And he refuses to let her remain. In a world where power replaces morality and love is a weapon, The Girl in the Photograph is a dark, twisted mafia romance about identity theft, psychological dominance, forced transformation, and a dangerous bond that blurs the line between captivity and connection. Some love stories begin with a kiss. Hers begins with a replacement.

“A hundred people are captured by those in power. Eighty of the red-tagged individuals are turned into players and sent to the Island of Blackwake, where they are divided into teams of four called Quadrangles. Each team is made up of four required classes: Deadlock (the strategist), Vanguard (the defender), Shadowstep (the scout), and Lifeline (the medic). Twenty of the red-tagged people serve as additional players known as Reserves, waiting to replace fallen members if a team loses someone of the same class. No team is allowed to change its structure. Additionally, the rules are simple: find the Scapegoat and kill him. The Quadrangle that succeeds will be granted their freedom by the ruling Triumvirate. But as the game grows more violent, Elowen, one of the players, begins to see the truth behind Blackwake. The island is being controlled by people from the city of Upper Spires, a separate and privileged society that manipulates the environment and the rules for their own gain. While alliances break and teammates fall, Elowen realizes that winning the game may only mean becoming part of the system that trapped them in the first place. To survive is one thing. To escape with their humanity intact is another. Survival is possible, but freedom may be the real illusion.
