The Mafia's Surgeon: Reborn for the Immortal

One signature sold her life away. One look sealed her fate forever. Dr. Seraphina Laurent spent six years scrubbing her father’s sins off her hands. As the daughter of the city’s most notorious mob boss, she became a top surgeon to save lives, not take them. She thought she was safe within the sterile walls of her hospital. She was wrong. When the Laurent empire crumbles in a single night of betrayal, the new King of the Underworld rises from the ashes to collect his due. Kaelen Vane. Ruthless. Lethal. And terrified by nothing—except the sunrise. He doesn't want the Laurent territory. He doesn't want the money. He wants her. "Your father’s debt is thirty million," Kaelen whispers, his skin unnaturally cold against hers. "You are the collateral." Dragged into a world of shadows, Seraphina is forced to become the personal surgeon to the Vane Syndicate. Her job is simple: Stitch up the monsters that rule the night. But Kaelen is different from the others. He moves faster than the eye can see. He never sleeps. And he looks at Seraphina not with lust, but with a haunted hunger that spans centuries. She thinks she is just a prisoner paying off a debt. She doesn't realize she is the reincarnation of the woman he lost five hundred years ago. He is a carnivore waiting to devour her. She is the only one who can handle his blood. In a game of life and death, will the surgeon cut out his heart, or will she be the one to finally make it beat again?

Gilded Thorns

When Korean marketing analyst Seo Yuna steps too close to a platform edge while furiously typing a one-star review, she dies — and wakes up in the body of Lady Arienne Voss, the doomed supporting character of her favourite web novel, Crimson Throne. She has landed three years before the novel's timeline begins. She knows every plot twist, every villain's weakness, and the precise sequence of betrayals that will end in Arienne's public execution on false charges of treason. She knows that her childhood friend Devian will sell her out for a title. She knows that the sweetly beloved Lady Isolde is a meticulous social predator. She knows that the forged documents framing her family already exist — and where they're hidden. What she doesn't know is what to do with an Emperor who notices, almost immediately, that something about Arienne Voss has fundamentally changed. Armed with foreknowledge, a sardonic inner monologue, and the stubbornness of a woman who has spent a lifetime being invisible and is deeply tired of it, Yuna sets about dismantling the conspiracy from the inside. She builds an intelligence network through the city's criminal underbelly. She engineers the precise, surgical downfalls of every noble who wronged Arienne. She neutralises the smiling High Cleric whose decades-long plot to replace the empire's nobility with a Church theocracy depends on controlling Arienne's rare and dormant magical ability — the Grace of Fate. The harder problem is Emperor Caelum Valdris himself. The novel painted him as a calculating villain. Yuna's direct access to his unguarded moments reveals something the novel's unreliable narrator buried: a man raised in a court that tried to assassinate him four times before his tenth birthday, who trusted no one, who tried once to protect the original Arienne and was rebuffed, and who is now watching this changed, unafraid, politically lethal version of her with an attention she cannot quite deflect. She is not supposed to fall in love. She has a survival plan. Love was not in it. Gilded Thorns is a political fantasy romance following one woman's meticulous, deeply satisfying campaign to rewrite a story that killed her — navigating court conspiracies, revenge arcs, a criminal syndicate alliance, and a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance with a man who courts her not with grand gestures but by simply, stubbornly refusing to leave the room. Some endings deserve to be unmade. She intends to unmade this one thoroughly.

Her fingers traced the love bites absentmindedly, thoughts circling back to the previous night . Suddenly she flinched at her own behaviour and pulled her hand away as if the marks burned her fingertips. She hated that the fact that she wasn't disgusted by the marks instead she secretly cherished them. Shortly after, the door creaked open and Liu Yong stepped inside,his gaze landed on her. "Busy admiring the hickeys?" He asked in a teasing tone,a smirk tugging at his lips. "Get lost!" She barked covering her body.

He smirked cockily then taunted in a low deep voice,"But I saw no sign of disgust on your face last night. You even screamed my name excitedly when I bit your neck." "Oh did I? It's just  a bunch of hickeys no big deal. They're not even half of the hickeys the American men used to give me," she retorted,her tone indifferent. His expression shifted,eyes darkening and he walked towards her with long strides and in a second the distance between them was no longer there  and Sheng Yumei didn't know if she was ready for what was coming .

Wish :Make Me A Star (MMAS)

SYNOPSIS After getting fired from her dead-end job, Mira Kale, a twenty-two-year-old orphan, stumbles into a mysterious boutique called "Wish." The store feels strange, almost alive. And when she buys the only thing she can afford — an old, vintage bag — she has no idea her life is about to end… and begin again. Moments after leaving the shop and getting into her apartment, Mira is killed by the very bag she bought. But instead of dying, she awakens to a voice — a bubbly, thousand-year-old system named Vira — who tells her she's been chosen for a cosmic mission. Her task? To travel through ten different worlds, taking the place of souls who died unjustly, righting their wrongs, and taking revenge on their enemies. Each completed world earns her one billion star points — and when she reaches ten billion, she'll finally have the chance to revive her parents and live the life she's always dreamed of. But failure means something far worse than death. From a pharmaceutical and perfume heiress in one world to a battle-hardened doctor in another, Mira will live countless lives — fighting rival systems, outsmarting villains, uncovering supernatural secrets, and slowly becoming someone far greater than she ever imagined. With a baby-faced system that's as mischievous as it is loyal, and a fate that demands both heart and strength, Mira's journey will test everything she believes about love, justice, and what it truly means to live again. Will she survive all ten worlds and rewrite her destiny… or vanish, forgotten, between realities?

But soon after she hands her resignation letter, she finds out that her boyfriend cheated on her. He claims she's a wreck with no future, and he's better off without her. Heartbroken and devastated, Catherine is grasping at the last straw when her boss, Ares King, proposes a contract out of the blue. "Become my wife for one year." "Why me, Mr. King?" "Because we work, Ms. Lane.” The last thing she wanted was to make a deal with the devil. But this offer is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Sell your soul to the devil for one year. How hard can that be? ********** Excerpt: "How many?" I froze. Did he expect me to count? "How. Many?" "I-I don't—Ah!" Ares spanked me again, continuously. My eyes stung, and sweet pain overtook me. I should feel sick from deriving pleasure from this, but strangely, I wasn't. "Two?" I teased, purposely getting the numbers wrong. "You shouldn't have done that." Just as I thought, he started again, but this time he drove each hit with more force until my ass was burning. "Fifteen!" I yelled, shaking. "Wrong." My heart momentarily stopped. "I got it right!" "You missed one." He pressed his hand on my searing bottom, and I moaned. I tried to squirm away, but he trapped my hands behind my back, his voice dark with warning. "Move again, and you'll regret it." ~ A/N: This is a work of fiction. All names, characters, places, and incidents are either the product of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously.

THE WHITE LUNA WHO REJECTED THE PACK

In a pack that valued strength above all else, she survived by lowering her head and enduring their scorn in silence. The Alpha heirs despised her. The future Beta dismissed her existence. Even the warriors treated her as an inconvenience. When the cruelty becomes unbearable, Aurelia walks into the Moon Goddess Temple to sever her bond with the pack forever. She never expects her blood to awaken an ancient power thought long extinct. Thunder shatters the sky. Her wolf emerges. Aurelia is not human. She is a White Wolf, heir to a forgotten bloodline that once ruled over Alphas and commanded entire packs. Worse yet, the scent of five mates binds itself to her soul the moment she awakens. The very men who once humiliated her now feel the pull of the bond. The pack that cast her aside now kneels before her power. And a mysterious fifth presence watches from the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to claim what he believes is his. As Aurelia flees the pack that betrayed her, her strength continues to grow and long buried truths begin to surface. Faced with obsession, regret, and a bond she never asked for, she must decide whether to grant forgiveness or tear down the hierarchy that once broke her.

Sold to the Mountain King

My father sold me to settle a gambling debt. I didn’t know until the man I’d been serving coffee to for two months pulled out my chair at a brunch table in Vail. An engagement clause with my name on it, signed eight weeks ago without my knowledge. My father couldn’t look at me. Cole Ashford couldn’t stop looking. Cole is the CEO of Palisade and leader of the 303. He bought my father’s debt in one night. He told him the clause was worthless before the ink dried—and let him sign it anyway. He knows my lease, my coffee, my life. He broke into my apartment while I was in Vail and left a cup of coffee brewed exactly the way I brew it, still warm when I walked through the door. I hated him. I hated more the way my body wouldn’t agree. His voice landed behind my ribs and spread where it had no business spreading. His gaze dropped to my mouth and I felt it on my skin for hours. The most dangerous man in Denver looked at me like I was the only thing his empire couldn’t buy. I wanted to burn the part of me that responded. I built Treeline from three years of tips and a lease in Union Station. Now I’m discovering the ground beneath it was his before I laid the first brick—engineered by a man who doesn’t take what he wants. He builds a world where what he wants walks in on its own. But every touch he takes gives him nothing. Granite and ice. Every touch I choose to give him changes everything. He thinks he claimed me. He’s wrong. The only version of me worth having walks in on her own. And I haven’t decided yet.
