Suzy Kale had a weird dream. In the dream, extreme heat, torrential rain, polar cold, earthquakes, zombies… countless natural disasters struck one after another. And she was the dream's sickly cannon-fodder female supporting character. She maliciously framed the female lead, even deliberately tried to seduce the heroine’s harem members, and in the end, met a miserable death. When she woke up, Suzy realized she was now three months before the apocalypse. This time, she was determined to change her fate! She awakened her spatial ability ahead of time, hoarded billions’ worth of supplies, and built a secure safehouse… Only to inexplicably become bound to a system called the “Handsome Men Collection Guide.” [Bind a qualifying target, and you get rewards.] [Even getting close can make you stronger.] Isn’t this basically forcing her to become a heartbreaker in the apocalypse?! A cheerful, sunny mixed-race underclassman? She accepts him. An androgynous beauty of a professor? She accepts him. A cold-faced, ruthless mercenary? She accepts him, too. Not to mention a gentle doctor, a cool and aloof CEO… she accepts them all! At first, Suzy only planned to bind them for free rewards—but then… The looks these men gave her started getting stranger and stranger. Come on! I didn't want them to fall for me, I swear!

Aurelia Vale spent her entire life believing she was nothing more than a powerless human living among werewolves. Without a wolf. Without a mate. Without a place she could truly call home. 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. This time, Aurelia is no longer the one being chosen. She is the one who decides who is worthy of standing beside the White Luna.

Volume 1: After ascending as the Sovereign of Heaven and Earth, War erupts between cultivators and demons. Bound by Celestial Law, the gods are forbidden from intervening in mortal affairs. Yet behind the veil of divine order, they form corrupt alliances to bring about her downfall. In the end, she is betrayed and slain by her own fiancée. Six hundred years later, she is reborn in the body of a princess of a royal kingdom, stripped of her cultivation, but not of her will. As the hidden laws of the world begin to reveal their secrets, she must confront a truth far greater than her past. Will she reclaim her power and exact her vengeance? A new journey begins in the untamed wilderness.

She was never chosen to save the world — she was forged to survive it. Etani is a half-fae assassin who understands the rules of survival: power is taken, mercy is punished, and every victory has a cost. She was never meant to be a heroine — only a weapon. When fate drags her from the shadows into the heart of political and divine conflict, Etani is stripped of her power, betrayed by courts and gods alike, and forced into leadership she never wanted. Each battle reshapes her. Each choice costs her something she cannot replace. As assassinations give way to crowns, and kingdoms become bargaining chips for gods, Etani must navigate brutal power struggles, shifting alliances, and enemies who would rather break her than kill her. Survival demands sacrifice. Power demands blood. And destiny does not care who it destroys along the way. This is a dark epic fantasy of ruthless survival, morally complex choices, and a female lead who does not seek redemption — only control over the chaos determined to consume her. For readers who enjoy dark fantasy, morally grey protagonists, and stories where power is both weapon and curse, Etani is a completed 12-book saga of transformation, vengeance, and the thin line between predator and prey. Content Warning: This series contains graphic violence, sexual content, torture, murder, cannibalism, domestic and sexual abuse, mental illness (including depression and suicidality), abortion, and miscarriage.

After a century of devotion, Xu Qianyi is betrayed on the night she was meant to be wed. The man she loved never wanted her heart—only her blood. As one of the last heirs of a forgotten celestial clan, Qianyi carries a power capable of opening the gates of heaven. When that secret is exposed, the fragile peace she built shatters, forcing her and her adopted sister, Yisha, out of hiding and back into a past that was meant to stay buried. But they are not alone. At her side is Lǐ Wèi, a frost fox demon whose loyalty has never once wavered—not in life, not in death, not even in silence. Raised together within the dangerous elegance of Zuì Mèng Lóu, alongside the enigmatic Wù Fēng and under the watch of the ancient demon Xuán Líng, their bond was never ordinary. It was forged to survive anything. As they search for the truth behind their clan’s destruction, whispers of a spreading spiritual blight begin to surface—one tied to a fallen empire and a history written in blood. The deeper they go, the more dangerous the truth becomes. And the more it threatens to tear them apart. To protect what remains of their family, Qianyi and Yisha must awaken the divine power within their blood and walk the path to ascension. But godhood demands more than strength—it demands sacrifice. And not every heart will survive it.

[MATURE CONTENT: 18+ ONLY. HEAVY SMUTS, POSSESIVE AND STRONG SPICY LANGUAGE] I was most definitely tempted, because those initial thoughts drifted to much dirtier territory as I imagined Stevie completely naked, Straddling my hips as we fucked, those full, firm tits jiggling as she bounced enthusiastically on my cock. It wasn't the first time she'd starred in my illicit fantasies, and my neglected dick was completely on board with the idea, Thickening in my slacks as another forbidden vision played through my mind, of pounding into her from behind, her silky hair wrapped tight around my fist. My fingers twitched as I envisioned pulling her head back and holding her in place as I drove deep into her pussy, her soft ass cushioning my driving thrusts as she moaned my name… ——————— She spent a year flirting with Caleb across conference rooms and cocktail parties. One night she stopped flirting and started something she couldn't take back. The plan was to leave by sunrise. Clean. Simple. Nobody had to know. Until his ex-wife showed up at dawn.

Two months, fifty thousand dollars, and one very complicated little boy who already likes her more than he should. Stevie knows how to manage a narrative. She does it for a living.

Darius, Kane, and Rylan Blackthorn rule the Frostfang territories with blood on their hands. Twenty years ago their father raped a witch’s daughter.

WARNING: Some mature content!!! 18+ This is what you call Urbantasy.. Fantasy in an urban setting with a strong female lead -- a story riddled in mystery, magic, and a lot of sass. ======= CHAPTER 1 sneak peek! ======= The air between them tightened like a rope. Cael leaned closer, head tilting slightly, pulling at her waist again, smugness softened into something sharper and quieter. His eyes flicked to her lips then back to her eyes as if asking for permission he didn't need. Hunger of a different kind pumped through Cael. The hunger that Galathea unmistakably recognized as it pressed hard against her lower abs, forcing through the fabric as if it can tear through. At the sensation, Galathea's mouth parted before she could stop it. Her whole body screamed at her to either shove him away or close the last inch between their lips herself. ===== SYNOPSIS ===== Galathea Brooks spent her life surviving quietly -- counting inventory, enforcing rules, keeping her head down inside one of the most powerful art institutions in the city. It's a simple life because paint doesn't talk; power doesn't notice people like her. and names are just names. -- That is... until a painting remembered her. When ancient works buried beneath Artemis Art Gallery began to respond to Galathea's presence, she becomes the center of the system that's older than the building itself. A system that cataloged her long before she knew it existed. Her name is not a coincidence. It is a KEY. Cael Alexander, on the other hand, has always understood control. As Artemis' immaculate but dangerous CEO, he manages secrets like no other. He knows the gallery and its bowels more than anyone. He knows what's hidden; he knows what's awaken. What he didn't expect, however, was Galathea. As archaic works of art start to stir, boundaries fracture -- between observer and artifact, power and possession, restraint and desire. Every choice Galathea makes draws her deeper into fate that doesn't want permission... only acknowledgement. Mind you, awakenings don't ask when you're ready.

Once a bright and energetic young girl from the countryside, Ruby’s life took a drastic change after she involve herself with one of the potentially, most dangerous and frightening man in her country. The Fourth Prince, Julien Sterling. Or as they say, the crazy bastard who was both cruel and a sadist, treating human lives no better than grass. She had not only played such a figure around the palm of her finger, seducing the man to the point of obsession, but also conceived his son.

When the time came for all deception to be shed and truth to be laid bare, would there still be any chance for the two to reach their happily ever after together? —— Excerpt: “H-How… did you recognize me?” She shivered against his touch, her heart beating wild as the man closed in, the familiar strokes of his sharp features emerging out of the cold shadows of the night. “I told you once, sweetheart.” He whispered against her skin, his breath slithering around her like a predatory snake rounding up its prey. “Even if your bones were to be grounded to dusts and every fiber of you, burnt into ashes, I would recognize you with just a glance.” The fingers on her chin tightened as he forced her to face the burning rage of his resentment. It had been 6 years… 6 years of waiting by the window like a fool who he himself looked down upon. However, he was no longer the fool of the past. And neither was he the powerless man who can only beg and wait. “Don’t you ever think about escaping from me again. In this lifetime, no, for as long as I stay in the same universe as you, you can only be mine, mine alone.” It was not a promise only to her, but also to himself. For he was now the mad tyrant who knew no reason, the tyrant who was bent on getting whatever that he had wanted. —— [Sweet 1 v 1 Fast-paced Romantic Comedy] [Male Lead Falls in Love First and Harder] [Extreme Pampering] [Naive Sweet White Rabbit x Cunning Black-Bellied Big Bad Wolf] Tags: #sweetlove #pregnancy #strongfemalelead #dark #royalfamily #pastplayhugerole #tragedy

They say seven is the number of perfection. For Luna Seraphine, it was the number that ended her silence. Six times, she tore the divorce papers apart, choosing love over pride, endurance over dignity, surrendering to the cruel demands of the mate who never cherished her. The seventh time, she signed her name without trembling. Alpha Ravyn panicked. His mistress, Daisy, the daughter of Seraphine’s former nanny, laughed it off. She’s only throwing a tantrum, they said. She’ll crawl back. They were wrong. The truth shattered what little remained of her heart: the child she had loved and raised for six years was never hers. That revelation became her breaking point. This time, Luna Seraphine walked away without looking back. As her power rose, so did Ravyn’s regret. The Alpha who once discarded her now slept outside her door, desperate for a single glance.

Men of influence and power now competed for her attention because Luna Seraphine was no longer just a Luna. She was a world-renowned business mogul, a shadowed philanthropist. The most sought-after surgeon of her time, and a cyber genius. Then, a powerful, cold Alpha, one infamous for hating women, just shook the entire werewolf world and the North American billionaire elite, the Sovereign Circle, with a single tweet. “Sera is mine. I’ll pluck out the eyes of anyone who dares to look at her.” The internet exploded. The pack world went silent, and Ravyn… lost his mind. But the real question is this, will he dare challenge the richest, most powerful Alpha in the world… for the ex-wife he let go?
