Sienna Adams’s life is anything but peaceful. She’s burdened by debts that aren’t hers and running from a past she refuses to face. Love isn’t on her mind... until she encounters Zachary Sterling. Zachary is a man shrouded in secrets. The only softness in his life is his son. Sienna should have been nothing more than a passing stranger, someone he would never recall. But something about her makes it difficult for him to walk away. Sienna doesn’t realize that Zachary is the leader of a powerful company. And Zachary doesn’t know that Sienna is the woman who once carried his child… and then vanished without a trace. Or perhaps he is the reason she vanished...? As the truth begins to surface, their past and present become intertwined. Feelings grow deeper, secrets grow darker, and love becomes dangerous. And this time, walking away may no longer be an option. ___ Excerpt: For a second, Sienna just stared at her phone as if it had suddenly become a magical object. Her mind felt slow, like it was wrapped in soft cotton, and her head leaned slightly to one side as she processed the voice. “Wow… wow…” she whispered, her lips curving into a wide, delighted smile. “Mr. Handsome Zach, it’s you…” There was a brief pause. “Yes, it’s me,” Zachary replied, though now his tone carried a clear trace of confusion. “Sienna… are you drunk?” “Wow, I'm surprised! Mr. Dangerous-for-my-sanity, you accepted my call…” she continued instead, completely ignoring his question. Then she laughed. It wasn’t her usual quiet laugh. It was light, free, and a little too loud for someone sitting alone in a dark apartment. The sound filled the room, bouncing off the walls, making her feel like she wasn’t alone at all. On the other end, Zachary stayed silent for a moment, clearly trying to understand what exactly was happening. “Sienna,” he said again, more firmly this time, “where are you now?”

Seren never wanted to be noticed. As the daughter of the royal medicine woman, she learned early that survival meant keeping her head down and her mouth shut. The palace was no place for curiosity, especially not when the dying King's three sons prowled its halls like caged predators. Prince Aeron, cold and calculating, leads with ruthless precision. Prince Kael, the soldier, obeys instinct over law. Prince Theron, charming and dangerous, sees through every lie. They are identical in face but opposite in nature, and the kingdom holds its breath waiting to see which one will claim the throne. When Seren witnesses a royal execution she was never meant to see, she becomes a problem the triplets cannot afford. Too dangerous to release, too innocent to kill, she finds herself confined in their private wing as political tensions threaten to tear the kingdom apart. But something unexpected happens when the princes get too close. The ancient mating bond, which should only form between wolves, sparks to life between a human servant and three alpha heirs. Now Seren is caught in a bond that defies nature and law. The triplets claim she belongs to them, body and soul, but the kingdom will never accept a human as their mate. Princess Elowen schemes to destroy her. The council demands answers. Rival packs circle like sharks scenting blood. And somewhere in the palace shadows, a traitor works to ensure none of them survive long enough to take the throne. As bodies pile up and war looms on the horizon, Seren must choose between the safe life she always wanted and the three wolves who have marked her as theirs. But in a world where power is everything and humans are nothing, loving the future kings might be the most dangerous choice of all. The triplet alphas will burn the kingdom down before they let her go. And Seren is starting to realize she would let them.

Look, I’m Riven Kael. Twenty-eight, data analyst, zero ambition beyond paying rent and avoiding small talk. My life was spreadsheets, instant ramen, and the occasional ghost I pretended not to see. Then one mandatory company gala, because of course it was mandatory, turned into the universe’s worst prank. I touched a cursed amulet. I just touched it. Next thing I know, I’m waking up in a penthouse that costs more than my entire bloodline, sporting a glowing marriage sigil on my wrist, legally and magically hitched to Azryth Valek. Yes, that Azryth Valek. The CEO of half the planet, a walking sin in a three-piece suit, an ancient demon lord who was literally sealed inside said amulet until I accidentally set him free. He says we’re bound. Separation means both of us die slowly and painfully. Soul-consumption optional but very much on the table if I’m stupid enough to fall for him. Which, newsflash, I am not. I’m not. Shut up. So now I’m living with an unfortunately hot CEO from hell, dodging assassination attempts disguised as corporate mergers, banishing spirits that show up at my desk like unpaid interns, and pretending we’re a power couple for the cameras while he smirks like he knows exactly how much I want to strangle him. Or kiss him. Or both. Brain, we are not doing this. I didn’t sign up for boardroom battles, multiversal rifts, or the terrifying realization that the arrogant demon who ruined my life might be the only one who truly sees me. But here I am. Still complaining, still fighting, still falling, against every shred of common sense, hopelessly, stupidly, irrevocably in love. Because when the universe marries you to the devil, it doesn’t ask for consent. It just hands you the ring. And damn it, I’m keeping it.

For ten years, Gwen Harlow suppressed her forbidden Witch-Wolf magic to be the perfect Luna for Lucien Blackfang. Her reward? A silver dagger to the heart, twisted by the very man she lived for—all to make room for her treacherous sister, Sienna. But death was not the end. Granted a second chance by the Moon Goddess, Gwen wakes up ten years in the past, on the day of her joining ceremony. This time, she won't kneel to the man who killed her. Instead, she walks past a stunned Lucien and chooses Kaelen, the ‘Cursed Alpha’ feared by the entire world. Lucien thought he was discarding a burden, never realizing that Gwen’s secret magic was the only thing keeping him alive. Now, as Lucien begins to rot without his silent protector, Gwen rises as a sovereign of shadows, ready to burn his empire to the ground. "Once, I died for you. Now, I live for your ruin."

A prophecy names one true moon. ----- Lyria has spent her entire life in the shadows — scorned, scarred, and invisible. The illegitimate daughter of a king who pretends she does not exist, she has learned to want nothing and expect less. But when fourteen alpha suitors arrive to compete for her sister's hand, five of the most powerful men in the kingdom cannot seem to stay away from the girl they were never meant to notice. Each one is powerful enough to shake kingdoms. Each one is drawn to her in ways that defy reason. But Lyria can only choose one, and the road to that choice will cost more than she ever imagined. And Jacinta will burn the kingdom down before she allows Lyria to take what she believes is hers.

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.

A toxic, codependent love story told across three volumes and nearly two decades, Spiteful Waltz Sonata explores the twisted emotional dance between Saafia Bin and Rinon Xiu. Two flawed, intelligent, and cruelly human souls who only feel alive in each other’s presence. Their story is not about redemption. It’s about the poison they choose to drink, again and again.

This is my story of learning ,of acceptance, of pain, of hurt, of friendship, of loyalty, of family and lastly of my love to a person who was hung up on my past-self. THIS IS MY STORY.........

A vicious conniving cunning man of an emperor falls for the fierce bandit of the west. One has a profound love for the other while the other despises the mere idea of it. The country has traitors, while a great war is about to take place. They escape to a foreign country to regain the kingdom. A woman who pretends to be a man, and a man disguising as a woman. Where will their catastrophic journey lead them.... P.S. This started out as a somewhat of an interpretation of the Manhua Hua Hua You Long But as I continued to write it I ended up changing the whole story after the first few chapters.

A Story About broken youths looking for what they truly want but messing up everything and each other along the way. I once read it somewhere that "Youth can bring many changes, they are fearless; they are fearless because they don't care about the consequences their actions bring." It always stuck to me even now. I know I didn't quote it word to word so if anyone does know what the actual quote is please write it on the comments below. the story starts when Shuling moves from Taiwan to Hong Kong . She starts to live with her online friend Wendy; at Wendy's house. the story has a lot of passion with overlapping relationships. It is very confusing as almost everyone can be in a physical relationship with everyone. This is however not much about romance as it is about young adults trying to find a place in the future whilst trying to recover from their respective wounds. The story focuses on the depression epidemic in all of China about having to live a competitive society where parents are too busy even for their children. The story came to me in a dream where it was both exciting and terrifying. I quickly got up and started writing the details. It's a great story but I'm sure that I won't be able to fully express its intensity with my writing to sorry in advance.

"I've been looking for you."He had to repeat it three times for me to finally notice that he was talking to me. My response was just looking him in the eye with a questioning face. "Date me" That earned him a snot sound from me. I just raised my eyebrow. I wasn't in the mood to deal with people right now so I decided I'd wait for my food with the others at the other place. When I was passing him; I don't know if he was hoping to get a stronger reaction out of me or if he was expecting me to be a hopeless romantic falling at his feet but he did something that was so common in most mangas; that it could be considered a shoujo trade mark. He kissed me; just a peck on my lips."Are you done?" Where I should've had a reaction, he was gaping at me for a few seconds. He quickly recomposed his calm façade. "Interesting...." He mumbled

Willa had been pushed through fifteen foster homes and just about had enough of it. On her eighteenth birthday, her only wish is simple—survive long enough to escape the life she’s trapped in. But that night, a monster crashes into her home and mauls her to death. Except, she doesn’t die. When Willa wakes, she finds herself inside a hidden supernatural academy, surrounded by beings she never knew existed. Worse, everyone believes she is someone else—a girl who mysteriously vanished two months ago. Only Willa knows the truth. And she intend to keep it that way. Pretending to be the missing girl may be dangerous, but it’s still safer than the life she left behind. At least, that’s what Willa thought. Until she meets them. Seven powerful beings bound to her by a fated connection that should never exist. The bond is forbidden. Cursed. Dangerous. Impossible to ignore. As Willa struggles to resist the pull between them, she begins to uncover a truth far more terrifying— the academy dark secrets, who she really is, the ancient power rising inside her, and the enemies older than legends hunting her. Because the monster that attacked her that night wasn’t just meant to kill her. It was meant to erase her from existence.

I was stunned to find out the man from that night, months ago, had now presented himself as my sister’s future husband. I felt awkward and so I left the gathering, not knowing how to feel. I already had a boyfriend and I was sure he loved me just as much. I didn’t want to betray him by having feelings for someone who clearly belonged to my fiancé. But it seemed fate had other plans.

“This isn’t right, this is wrong” Roman said to himself, forgetting he was speaking aloud. “What Isn’t right” Seraphina said looking innocent as ever. “You” Roman took her lips into his mouth without approval, he knew in anyway, it was sinful. Seraphina was the perfect figure daughter of a powerful businessman. She lived her life in approval and never defy until a thanksgiving break that made her whole life crumble in a blink of an eye. She found out the father she had always feared and obedient to wasn’t her biological father and she was just a sequel of her mother’s infidelity. She was disowned and was left to start all over again as a low class citizen. Just like an Angel, Roman Carter, the man she had referred to as her godfather took her in along with her mother, he gave her shelter, a job, and a reason to be perfect again but then there’s this feeling they had for one another, it is sinful, undeniable and a total taboo. Will they ever end up together?

They gave her ruins. She built a home. After a brutal betrayal by her boyfriend and best friend ends in a fatal accident, Qin Lian wakes up inside a novel, as the fake daughter of the Qin family. Discarded overnight after the real daughter returns, she is forced to swap engagements and marry a rumored old pig farmer from the countryside who already has three children. Everyone mocks her fate. “Wasn’t she the arrogant, spoiled brat of the Qin family? Look at her now.” “She stole Mu Rouyu’s life for years. This ending suits her perfectly.” “Married to an old man with three children? Her life is finished.” They expect Qin Lian to spend the rest of her life buried in mud and regret, becoming a vicious stepmother trapped in a loveless marriage, while Mu Rouyu takes back everything that should have belonged to her. But the moment Qin Lian steps into that village… the story begins changing. Because the rumored old pig farmer is not old at all, but a dangerously handsome former soldier with broad shoulders, a cold face, and eyes that soften only for his wife. The children who were supposed to fear her slowly begin clinging to her side. The miserable life everyone expected never comes. Instead, while others wait for Qin Lian to fail, she quietly rises higher and higher, building businesses, earning wealth, and becoming someone even influential figures cannot ignore. And the people who once mocked her? They can only watch in disbelief as the discarded fake daughter becomes the most successful person among them all. Meanwhile, Mu Rouyu slowly realizes something she never expected. Even after taking back her identity… She still cannot win against Qin Lian. Especially when the man, once meant to stand beside Mu Rouyu, can’t stop looking at Qin Lian instead. But Qin Lian no longer cares about the people who betrayed her once before. This time, she won’t beg for love. She won’t fight for approval. And she certainly won’t lose. Because while they were waiting for her life to fall apart… Qin Lian was already building a life everyone else could only envy. .....Excerpt...... “Rouyu, your fiancé treats you so well.” “No wonder so many girls envy you and Officer Lin.” Surrounded by flattering voices, Mu Rouyu smiled faintly and glanced at the gold ring inside the counter. “Miss, this one is 480 yuan.” Her fingers paused. Too expensive. The saleswoman’s smile faded slightly as she quietly placed the ring back down. Mu Rouyu’s expression stiffened. Just then, the jewelry store doors opened. “Mom! That necklace is beautiful!” Mu Rouyu froze instantly. Qin Lian walked in beneath the crystal lights, three beautiful children surrounding her while the tall man beside her carried a cold, imposing aura that instantly drew attention. One of the girls whispered, stunned, “Who’s that man?” “So handsome…” Mu Rouyu’s fingers tightened. Wasn’t Qin Lian supposed to be suffering in the countryside? Qin Lian glanced at the necklace and shook her head lightly. “Forget it. It’s too expensive.” “Wrap it,” the man beside her said calmly. Qin Lian frowned. “Xu Yinchen.” “If you like it, why not buy it?” Then Mu Rouyu noticed something even worse. Lin Chengyan wasn’t looking at her anymore. His gaze was fixed entirely on Qin Lian, the regret in his eyes impossible to hide. ......xxxxx......

#Smut  “You want a gun?” he asked, as if I hadn’t already made that clear. “Yes.” “…Then kiss me.” My eyes widened, but he only leaned back slightly, watching me with dark amusement waiting for me to refuse. Instead, I leaned forward and pressed my lips against his. I meant for it to be quick. But the second our mouths touched, his hand wrapped around the back of my neck and he kissed me rough enough to bruise. That was when he bit me. Sharp enough to draw blood. His eyes darkened at the sight of it. Then his thumb brushed over the blood he’d drawn before he murmured against my mouth, “Good girl.” ******** Carmen Castilo was born mafia royalty until the night her father was murdered in front of her.

Seduction Alert! No Incest! “Are you alright?” he asked, his voice controlled despite everything. “You don’t have to do this if you don’t want to.” Dylan didn’t answer. Instead, he leaned in and took him into his mouth. It didn’t go in all the way, barely halfway before it hit the back of his throat, forcing him to pause. “Fuck!” Sebastian’s head fell back, his body reacting instantly to the sudden rush. …. That night, Dylan felt things he had never felt before, did things he had never done before, and made decisions he wasn’t sure he wanted to regret. Because in the middle of it all… he wanted him. But to Sebastian? It was nothing more than a mistake. But for Dylan, the night everything changed. Once a quiet, neglected boy, Dylan had grown up swallowing resentment, living with low self-esteem and no control over his own life. He drifted through it until that one encounter in Korea. He had thought this man took his girlfriend, but instead, the man ended up taking his first time. Three years later, at 22, Dylan is no longer that boy. He’s sharper, bolder, and unafraid to take what he wants. And standing right in front of him? The man who once reduced everything they had to a mistake. Sebastian. Now 29, controlled, untouchable, and acting like that night never happened. But living under the same roof quickly became its own torment, one that forced him to remember everything he wanted to forget. ____ “Just once,” Dylan said, stepping closer, his voice low but steady. “Sleep with me again, and I’ll stop stressing you.” “No,” Sebastian replied flatly. “I’ll pass.” Dylan let out a quiet scoff, his lips curving faintly. “Are you sure you prefer being buried in files… rather than dealing with me?” Sebastian glanced at him, something unreadable flickering in his eyes before he answered, “Yes.” But this time, even he didn’t sound convinced.

“You lost the baby. Why didn't you tell me, Ruby?" I walked in carefully calculating my steps. She turned to me, eyes burning with anger. Understandable. "What good would that have done? What would have changed? You rejected me, remember?" Her words cut like glass, I felt every slice. "And you couldn't be bothered what happened to me when I hit Alana. She did that. She made sure my baby didn't survive, Troy. And I watched you carry her in your arms while I was exiled by your father." I'm sorry baby. More tears fell from my eyes, matching every one of hers. If only I could turn the hands of time. But if only, didn't work in this world. There were things that couldn't be taken back once they were done. I had no words. Words were excuses at this point. Regret and guilt gnawed at me. I stared at her for a long time. ........ Fate chose her. Power made him refuse. After being publicly rejected by her Alpha mate, she disappeared into the shadows. Years later, he finds her again—stronger, colder, and no longer his to command. But when the council demands their marriage to save the pack, old wounds reopen and dangerous secrets surface. Surrounded by rivals, lies, and unfinished bonds, she holds the one thing he never expected— The power to destroy him… or forgive him.
