twisted

Mia Russo pulls double night shifts at a diner just to pay rent. She has no family, no connections, and no safety net. One rainy Tuesday at 3 a.m., she finds a bleeding man dumped in the alley behind her building. No phone. No ID. Just cold skin and a pulse, she refuses to let go quietly. She takes him home. She saves his life. She asks no questions. Big mistake. Luca Ferrante is the Don of the Ferrante crime empire—the most feared name in the country. He woke up in her bed owing her his life, and now he won't leave. Every day he stays, she gets pulled deeper into a world of blood, power, and dark desire she has no business wanting. When her kindness gets her dragged into his war, Mia loses everything—her job, her home, and her reputation—publicly destroyed by the rival family trying to bury Luca. Humiliated. Homeless. Exposed. She thought saving him was her worst decision. She had no idea it was the beginning of her power. Because Mia has a secret too. And when it comes out, it changes everything—including who the real target has always been.

In a world where power is bought with blood and loyalty is measured in fear, Taehyuk rules from the shadows—cold, untouchable, and dangerously obsessed with control. As a ruthless mafia leader, he doesn’t believe in coincidences… only calculated moves. Yujin, on the other hand, is drowning in a debt he never chose. Haunted by his father’s mistakes and cornered by men who see him as nothing more than a payment, his life takes a turn the night he crosses paths with Taehyuk. What seems like a coincidence is anything but. Taehyuk wants him—not just as a pawn in his dangerous world, but as something far more personal… something he refuses to let go. Bound by debt, fear, and a tension that neither of them can ignore, Yujin is dragged deeper into a life of crime… and closer to a man who feels more like a sin than salvation. In a world where survival demands cruelty and trust is a luxury, their connection becomes both a weakness and a weapon. But when love begins to bloom in the darkest of places… Can love really change their paths— or will it only drag them deeper into crime and sin?

When a stalker begins sending intimate recordings and a jealous rival leaks their most explicit moments to the world, their hidden passion explodes into global scandal. Careers shatter. Blackmail threatens the stage for either their destruction... or their ultimate, public surrender. Will they burn together in the spotlight, or will one last betrayal tear them apart forever?

Gregoris Frasner doesn’t do polite conversation or slow dances. He doesn’t charm at banquets or linger for court gossip.

Everything else is temporary. Until Rafael Rosenroth. Rafael was supposed to stay out of this. He’d spent years avoiding his mother’s arranged marriages, carefully balancing court expectations with just enough distance to be safe. But after one too many incidents, he was drafted into Gabriel’s infamous “Department of Spite,” where diplomacy is sharp, everything is weaponized, and affection is more dangerous than betrayal. But fate and Alexandra pushed him right into the depths of hell. What began as a joke turned into an obsessive alpha and an omega who wants nothing to do with him.

Mia Russo thought the worst night of her life was watching her father die. She was wrong. The worst night is standing on an auction stage in a red dress, being sold like property to the highest bidder. Her father was the most feared Don in the criminal world. Now he is dead, and she is the price someone is collecting. Just as a greasy old man opens his mouth to claim her, a single bid silences the room. A number so large the auctioneer's hands shake. Mia never sees the man's face. Only his eyes. Dark. Calm. Familiar in a way that makes her stomach drop. The man who buys her is Dante Reyes. The new Godfather. The most powerful criminal in the country. And the same boy her father pulled from the streets twelve years ago and raised like a son. He is no longer that boy. He is cold. Controlled. And he wants something from Mia that goes far beyond ownership. As the walls of his mansion close around her, Mia begins to see the truth. Dante did not buy her to save her. He bought her because she is the last piece of a plan years in the making. A plan that started the night her father was murdered. A plan Dante may have helped write. The girl who walked into his house as a prisoner must decide. Break under his control, or burn the whole empire down from the inside.

In a world dominated and ruled by ancient shifter packs, where power struggles and blood feuds dictate every alliance and betrayal, love emerges as the most dangerous secret of all. Werewolf packs rule vast territories with iron claws and unbreakable hierarchies, their Alphas wielding authority developed in moonlit rituals and savage combat. Powerful wolves with secrets of their own. Hidden rivalries exist for generations, fueled by stolen lands, broken treaties, and forbidden matings that could cause full-scale wars. Amid this volatile landscape, powerful wolves harbor secrets that could topple empires, and one name from the past threatens to unravel everything. Louve has spent years methodically burying her history, especially the haunting name she swore never to remember again: Lynx. The formidable Alpha of her family's rival pack, Lynx represented everything to her. Her secret mate that she always loved— a fated bond that burned with raw passion and unbreakable loyalty. But he vanished without a trace after the war that happened years ago, leaving her shattered and forcing her to rebuild a life of quiet strength within her own pack. When Lynx suddenly reappears, he doesn't merely rekindle long-suppressed emotions; he drags with him a storm of danger, buried secrets, and shadowy enemies who have been lurking in the fringes of pack politics. LOUVE finds herself caught between protecting her family and confronting the bond she tried so hard to forget. But some bonds cannot be broken, they tend to stay. They pulse with a dangerous vitality, threatening to expose vulnerabilities that could doom her pack and everyone she loves. Parallel to Louve’s turmoil, Selin, a fierce sharp tongue bartender leads a deceptively ordinary life as a fierce, quick-witted bartender in a neutral border town where shifters of all kinds mingle under an uneasy truce. Selin carries hidden abilities far beyond the simplicity of a wolf lineage. Her world shatters when she becomes the unwilling target of ruthless panther shifters, sleek and lethal predators from a rival supernatural world. Selin faces certain death until a mysterious Beta wolf intervenes with ferocious precision. His powerful presence not only saves her but awakens a strange, electrifying connection she cannot explain or ignore — a pull that feels primal, almost fated, yet laced with mystery. It becomes more intense when secrets unravel, trust is concealed but Louve is left to choose between her mate and her family. And if willingly she is able to fix both. As hidden truths surface and dangerous alliances form, Louve and Selin’s paths collide in a storm of passion, betrayal, and lethal intrigue. In a realm where loyalty is everything and desire can be treason, two powerful women must decide whether to fight the bonds that bind them — or surrender to a love fierce enough to shatter empires. The story is attractive as it combines fated-mate romance, supernatural creatures, action, mystery, and emotional conflict in one plot.

“Why do you look at me like that?” I whispered, my voice shaking, “like I am something filthy you don't want to touch?” Alpha Nathan's eyes darkened. “That's because I never wanted you,” he spat. “Then why am I here? Why didn't you reject me when you discovered I was your mate?” Alpha Nathan's voice dropped low, sharp and cutting. “That's because fate is cruel… and that little girl from eight years ago couldn't have been the same as my mate.” “But you hate me.” I said, the truth bitter on my tongue. A dangerous smirk tugged at his lips. “Be careful, lollipop… because hate is not what I feel.” **** Rivers was maltreated by those she called family. Hated by her pack. Condemned as a curse and a disappointment. And her crimes? She was wolfless and weaker than even the lowest of omegas even though she was born with an Alpha blood. Then fate took a cruel turn, and she's fated to Alpha Nathan, the same guy from years ago who had joined in her series of nightmares. The same Alpha who could change the course of her destiny or completely destroy what little remained of it. But he was cold, distant and didn't want the bond because in his eyes, claiming her meant dragging her into a curse he wouldn’t wish on anyone. However, Rivers isn't just any ordinary wolf. She isn't just a broken wolf with weakened Alpha blood. She carries something that could change his world and the concept he ever believed about strength, fate and destiny itself. As Alpha Nathan spends time with her, he begins to see the hidden treasures in this weakened wolf. Slowly and painfully, he falls in love with her. But… it might already be too late. Because only now, not only that other Alphas seek her power, but his curse… might have to claim her forever for him to be free.

Caleb Arden has always lived quietly in the background—overshadowed by his dramatic Omega brother, overlooked by his family, and underestimated by everyone else. But when the Omega flees from his political marriage to the ruthless Alpha Lucian Thorne, Caleb is forced to step into a spotlight he never wanted. A Beta replacing an Omega. A marriage built on obligation, not choice. Cold eyes. Cold vows. Cold nights spent alone. But in the Alpha’s world—filled with danger, syndicate politics, and a bond that shouldn’t exist—Caleb discovers he cannot stay small forever. And Lucian discovers something he never expected: The Beta living in his shadow… might be the one person capable of shaking his world apart.

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.

In the shadows of criminals, the truth is also a lie

“Su Xiaomeng, about that night—” One sentence from Yin Shixiu and her world tilts. He’s her best friend’s thirty-two-year-old uncle, a man whose name opens every door in the city, and the last person she wants to tangle with. “Uncle, look—you weren’t thinking straight and I was blackout drunk. Let’s just pretend it never happened, okay?” “…Fine.” Three months later he discovers—via an excited niece—that Su Xiaomeng is pregnant. “The moment the baby’s born, you let me leave. No more hounding me!” “…Fine.” He signs the marriage contract she writes herself. “Uncle, I need spicy hot pot at midnight…” “…Fine.” He’s out the door in the snow, gathering ingredients until his fingers turn blue. “Uncle, I’m scared. He’s kicking so hard—it hurts…” “Alright, alright—no more babies after this.” On the eve of delivery, he strokes her back, whispering promises until her breathing steadies.

He was an extremely wealthy CEO. His hobbies were clinging to his wife and pampering her to the extreme. One day, the bodyguard reported, "Sir, Madam went to chase her ex-fiancé!" "Sir, Madam confessed her love for her ex-fiancé on a global livestream!" "Change the photos and names to mine!" "Sir, Madam went to the hospital to have an abortion!" The incredibly handsome and wealthy man couldn't contain his anger. "Bring Madam back to me, and take good care of her! No, stop! I'm going to get her myself!" After marriage, Su Fu glared at her possessive husband. "Let's divorce; this life is unbearable!" Shangguan Ling smirked. "So what if it's unbearable? Whoever leaves, loses! I'll give you the property, our child, and myself! Wherever you go, I'll go too!"

The first time Nan Wan saw this man, she knew he had a "sickness," and it was the terminal kind. Coincidentally, she did too.
