Take Me Away, Dark Lord!

#VillainDad #CuteProtagonist #Ghosts #Misunderstanding #Transmigration #SmartMC Mira realized two things the moment she woke up in the body of a nameless orphan in a fantasy novel: 1. She is a disposable "shrimp" destined to die in the crossfire of the main characters. 2. She is the only person in this world who can see the screaming, terrifying ghosts that haunt every corner of the empire. Tortured by the wails of the dead, Mira finds only one source of silence: Duke Kaelus von Nacht. Known as the "Dark Lord" and the "Emperor's Sword," Kaelus is a man so ruthless and soaked in bloodlust that even the ghosts are terrified to go near him. To the world, he is a monster. But to Mira, he is a walking, talking pair of noise-canceling headphones. Desperate for a good night's sleep, Mira clings to him, acting like a naive, affectionate child to secure her place by his side. She succeeds, but she miscalculated. Kaelus didn't adopt her out of kindness. He needed a disposable child to act as 'live bait' for the assassins targeting him. Now named Seraphina, she must navigate a deadly game of survival. She thinks she is using him as a ghost shield. He thinks she is a fearless prodigy who loves him. As Seraphina munches on poison berries and naps through ambushes to avoid seeing spirits, the cold-blooded Duke starts to ask the wrong questions. "Why does she only sleep when I am holding her?" "Why does she stare into space with such disdain?" "Is it possible... that I am a good father?" Spoiler: He is not. But he’s about to destroy an entire kingdom because someone woke her up. --- ### Excerpt "Your Highness, the Archduke," the aide whispered, trembling hard to cover his laughter from bursting out. "The child... she is clinging to your leg again." Kaelus looked down. The tiny creature known as Seraphina was attached to his calf like a barnacle, drooling on his pristine military trousers. "She is fearless," Kaelus murmured, misinterpreting her desperate need for his ghost-repelling aura as familial affection. "The assassins are approaching, yet she seeks comfort only in the eye of the storm. She is the perfect bait." Seraphina, currently trying to avoid eye contact with a headless ghost hovering three feet away, squeezed her eyes shut. 'Just don't move. If I let go, the headless guy will ask me where his nose is again.' "Sir," the aide hesitated. "She's... eating your cloak." "Let her eat," Kaelus commanded, drawing his sword. "Whatever she wants, she gets. Except for freedom."

Damned Desire

Everyone thinks being a vampire is easy: cool fangs, impossible strength, endless youth. ‎ ‎They’re wrong. ‎ ‎It’s a thousand little burdens: the hunger that never quits, the hiding, the rules, and having the Maestra as your mother. Mum—the one who keeps a list of expectations like commandments, thought I was an embarrassment. A mistake. She had Rick, her golden boy, the perfect son and the next Maestro-to-be. Her bright and sunny world. I was her dark, gloomy storm cloud. She loved what Rick was and hated what I represented: rebellion, carelessness. Except Rick wasn’t as spotless as she believed. Everyone hides something. ‎ ‎Then there’s the worst thing of all: soulmates. ‎ ‎Fated by the Great Deity, bound for eternity. For most, a blessing. For me—a curse. One hundred and fifteen years trapped in the same life is enough to make anyone pray for a quick end. ‎ ‎Worse, me and my brother Rick's fate wasn’t with a human or a witch—tolerable or useful respectively, but with a werewolf. The one creature our kind despises most. ‎ ‎Everything changed when we moved to New Jersey and started human school. It started in a classroom, in an ordinary moment that wasn’t ordinary at all. We couldn’t tell anyone. If anyone learned, our titles, our family's honor. Everything, could be at risk. Our mother would be humiliated. We could be exiled. Killed. ‎ ‎Everything was on the line, and we weren’t ready to lose it. ‎ ‎This is the story of how it began: how we fought the world to be together, how I believed I couldn’t sacrifice everything for someone, and how I convinced myself I couldn’t change. ‎ ‎I was wrong. ‎ ‎He changed me. ‎ ‎They changed us. ‎

A formidable warrior from an ancient era, the daughter of a renowned general, awakens in her place. Sent into the future by a prophecy, she finds herself in a world on the brink of destruction. With only a month before typhoons ravage the land, extreme weather shifts without warning, and terrifying mutations transform animals and plants into deadly threats. Worst of all, a horrifying virus spreads like wildfire, turning humans into flesh-eating zombies. Civilization crumbles and only the strongest survive.
