When Angels Marry Vampires "Play along, or we're both dead." When Ella wakes in a hospital with no memory, a dangerously handsome stranger claims she's his wife. The lie is simple: pretend to be Mrs. Aaron D'Cruz for three months to save him from a political marriage. The truth is impossible: she's a fire angel princess with amnesia, he's a five-hundred-year-old vampire lord, and their fake marriage might be the only thing preventing a supernatural war. Ella isn't alone. Five other angel cousins—each with elemental powers and forgotten pasts—have been scattered across Earth in the LDH program: a "cultural exchange" that's actually a last-ditch experiment to heal a thousand-year rift between realms. As the Black Rose blooms a century early, its thorns carry memories of a love so forbidden it shattered worlds. Now, twelve interspecies couples must: Remember who they are before the Syndicate hunts them down Master hybrid magics that shouldn't exist Survive the 72-hour realm convergence during full bloom Choose love over ancient hatreds Become the Butterfly Covenant prophesied to save—or destroy—everything An arrogant fire angel who bows to no one A possessive vampire lord who owns everything he touches An innocent earth angel paired with her sky-angel best friend A gloomy dark angel foodie and the lightning wizard who won't stop flirting A protective water angel obsessed with a rule-following perfect witch A wind angel who can't choose between a human artist and a stable earth angel A brutally honest light angel stuck with a chaos fairy who breaks everything she touches Twelve couples. Twelve forbidden loves. One last chance at salvation before the Black Rose consumes all realms.

Hana Fujimoto lives in a colorless world. After a betrayal that deeply scarred her, something inside her broke. The colors disappeared. Dreams were silenced. What once brought her joy became nothing more than a distant memory. Since then, Hana has learned to survive in shades of gray — working, studying, and caring for her sick father while hiding her pain behind quiet kindness. Daniel Azevedo, on the other hand, has always lived surrounded by color. The son of Brazilian parents, raised in Japan, he learned early on to use his smile as armor. Passionate about anime, games, and stories, Daniel seems too bright for a world that constantly labels him as “strange” or “immature.” Behind his humor and contagious energy, he carries wounds he never learned how to show. Their meeting is simple. An ordinary hallway. A game studio. A moment that goes unnoticed… yet changes everything. As Daniel insists on existing exactly as he is, without hiding what he loves, Hana is forced to face her fear of feeling again. Little by little — through shy conversations, exhausting workdays, and small confessions — something begins to change. Not explosively. Not like a fairy tale. But slowly. Painfully. Humanly. The Girl Who Regained Her Colors is a story about invisible trauma, learning to trust again, and how sometimes it only takes one person to remind us of the colors the world tried to take away from us.

Aanya Lu is a simple, hardworking girl who believes talent and honesty can change fate. She has no idea that her past is soaked in blood—and that her future is walking straight into danger. When she joins one of Shenzhen’s most powerful companies, she catches the attention of Zain Yan—a flawless CEO in the eyes of the world, but a ruthless and broken man behind closed doors. Zain gives Aanya an important project, mentors her, and pulls her closer to him. To Aanya, he is strict but fair. To Zain, she is nothing but a tool. Years ago, Zain lost his mother and younger sister on a blood-soaked night. The man responsible was Lu Kang—Aanya’s beloved uncle, the man she trusted like family. Zain plans to use Aanya to destroy Lu Kang completely. But fate turns cruel. Aanya’s intelligence and hidden strength attract the attention of the underworld’s most feared ruler—the Dragon King. Seeing her as a future threat, he orders her death. For the first time, Zain’s perfect plan collapses. The girl he meant to sacrifice becomes the girl he risks his life to protect. Surrounded by bullets, betrayal, and blood, Zain makes a shocking move— A forced contract marriage. In front of the world—and in front of Lu Kang— Zain declares Aanya as his wife. Now Aanya is trapped in a marriage she never chose, tied to a man full of secrets, and standing at the center of a war she doesn’t understand. Is she merely a pawn in Zain’s revenge? Or the only weakness of the Heartless Wolf? As buried truths rise, as the connection between the Dragon King and Lu Kang is revealed, and as Aanya uncovers why Zain really chose her— It won’t just be love or trust that breaks… but the very cage imprisoning a wounded heart.Note: I am a new writer, so there may be some small mistakes in my novel.

THE WOMAN HE DESTROYED IS BACK—AND SHE'S BRINGING HIM TO HIS KNEES Three years ago, Aria Kane was a naive businesswoman who fell hard for billionaire Damien Cross. Their chemistry was explosive. Their passion was all-consuming. She thought she'd found her soulmate. She was wrong. Damien seduced her for one reason: to steal her family's proprietary business intelligence. He used her love as a weapon, extracted every secret, and then discarded her like trash. Within months, her father's company was bankrupt. Her father took his own life. Aria lost everything—her family, her home, her future. She spent three years barely surviving, doing whatever it took to stay alive, burning with a rage that never dimmed. Now, everything has changed. Aria's estranged grandfather—a corporate titan she never knew—has died and left her his billion-dollar empire. Overnight, she transforms from powerless victim to one of the most powerful CEOs in the country. And she has one target in her sights: Damien Cross. While she was clawing her way up, Damien's empire has been crumbling. Bad deals. Betrayed alliances. A loveless engagement to a manipulative socialite. Unknown to him, Aria has been systematically destroying his business from the shadows. Now he's desperate, vulnerable, and backed into a corner. That's when Aria makes her move. She summons him to her office with an offer he can't refuse: She has evidence of all his illegal dealings—insider trading, corporate espionage, fraud. One phone call to the authorities and he's finished. His company collapses. His freedom disappears. Everything he built turns to ash. Unless he agrees to her terms. 21 nights. Complete submission. No limits. No safe words. No mercy. For 21 nights, Damien must surrender himself completely to Aria's control. She'll decide what happens, where it happens, and how far it goes. She'll strip away his power, his pride, and every defense he's ever built. He'll do whatever she commands—in the boardroom and the bedroom. Humiliation. Submission. Pleasure denied. Control surrendered. In exchange, she'll save his company and destroy the evidence against him. But revenge is never simple. As the nights progress, the power dynamic shifts in unexpected ways. Damien reveals he was trapped by his own cruel father, forced to betray Aria or watch his mother die. Aria discovers that surviving her trauma left scars that still bleed. The chemistry between them—the explosive, undeniable passion—never died. Someone is watching them. Dangerous enemies from Damien's past emerge. His father will kill to maintain control. His vindictive fiancée will destroy them both. And Aria's grandfather's death may not have been natural. As corporate warfare escalates into actual danger, Aria and Damien must navigate a minefield of trust issues, explosive secrets, and feelings neither wanted to face. She's supposed to hate him. He's supposed to grovel. Neither expected to fall in love—again. The 21-night countdown is ticking. Boundaries will be shattered. Secrets will explode. And by the final night, everything will change. Because the opposite of love isn't hate—it's indifference. And what burns between Aria and Damien is anything but indifferent.

When Kai Voss wakes up in the body of a broke, mana-less noble heir with a crumbling fortress and forty-three old soldiers, he should be finished before he starts. He isn’t. Because while everyone in Valdris measures power in mana grades and magic output, Kai is measuring something else entirely — supply lines, terrain, and the exact moment an overconfident lord with five hundred men makes his first mistake. He can’t cast a spell. He can’t swing a sword. What he has is a System nobody else can see, and fifteen years of military history that this world has never encountered. Lord Harken has five hundred soldiers and thinks Ashfield is already his. He has six days to find out how wrong he is.

Ace is a solo developer with a dream: to create a living, breathing world where players can explore, experiment, and shape their own destinies. Working alone, he conceives Echoes of Creation, a revolutionary game blending summon fusion, emergent AI, dynamic environments, and hidden lore. What begins as a coding project evolves into a sprawling universe filled with danger, mystery, and wonder. From the first lines of code to the earliest test zones, Ace navigates the challenges of designing a game world that reacts organically to every player’s action. He balances fragile ice bridges, aurora-powered puzzles, and elemental hazards while refining AI systems that learn and adapt. As Ace immerses himself in the game, he becomes more than a developer—he becomes a player within his own creation, testing every system, summoning legendary allies, and uncovering hidden secrets embedded deep within the world. But Echoes of Creation is more than a game—it’s a living, evolving ecosystem. Zones shift, wildlife adapts, auroras fracture and reform, and emergent gameplay surprises even the creator. Ace must navigate these challenges not only as a player but as a visionary shaping a world that grows beyond him. With every fusion, every puzzle, and every environmental hazard, he learns the delicate balance between order and chaos, creation and freedom. As Ace pushes further into the game, he begins to transcend his role as a developer. The world recognizes him in whispers and awe: a mysterious, godlike figure who influences events, stabilizes chaos, and inspires players to experiment and create. Known as The Ascendant, he navigates massive global events, rogue AI conflicts, and complex emergent systems, ultimately shaping a legend that will endure within Echoes of Creation long after his interventions. Echoes of Creation: One Dev’s Odyssey is a thrilling, immersive tale of creativity, innovation, and mastery. It’s the story of one person’s journey to bring a dream to life, explore it firsthand, and ultimately become a legend within a world that lives and breathes in response to every choice.

Two souls. One ritual. A world where mercy is an extinct concept. When Oliver and Emmet are ripped from the mundane comfort of Earth, they don't awaken to the gilded halls of royalty or the benevolent gaze of a king. Instead, they claw their way out of the suffocating silence of The Mourning Wilds, a primordial forest where the air tastes of rot and ancient malice. Surrounding them are the cooling, mangled corpses of the Covenant of the Last Breath—cultists who didn't just summon them, but fed their own vital organs into a ritual pyre to bridge the gap between worlds. There is no guiding system. No radiant Saint. No tutorial. There is only the damp earth, the stench of sacrifice, and the dawning realization that they are utterly alone in a realm that views them as foreign parasites. Before their arrival, a "Goddess" bestowed upon them abilities that defy the laws of physics—powers that feel less like gifts and more like tumors growing within their souls. In a world where the ceiling of strength has been shattered, Oliver and Emmet find their power accelerating with terrifying speed. But in the Mourning Wilds, growth is not a triumph; it is a dinner bell. The Goddess they look to for salvation is not a protector—she is a scavenger. She has no use for the weak, and in her eyes, a Hero who cannot survive the first night is merely wasted fertilizer for her grand design. As the duo treks through miles of untamed, shifting wilderness to find a civilization that may not even want them, the true horror of their existence begins to unfurl. The "debt" of their summoning was not paid in full by the cultists' deaths; it is an ongoing interest collected in blood and sanity. Every time they draw upon their "god-like" abilities, they lose a piece of their humanity, unknowingly replaced by something cold, vast, and hungry. A twisted power—a shadow of the Void and its King—stalks them through the trees. It does not want to kill them quickly; it wants to harvest the strength they have cultivated. They slowly uncover the sickening reality of their roles. Heroes are not saviors; they are disposable pawns. They are "cattle of the gods," sent to be fattened on power only to be slaughtered at the peak of their strength to reshape the world in a deity’s fractured image. For Oliver, the revelation is a death sentence for his heart. He will soon discover that in this world, weakness is a sin punished by the merciless annihilation of everything he holds dear. They are not the protagonists of a grand adventure—they are the prey in a cosmic hunt. Unimaginable horrors await in their ascent to power. As they grow stronger, the shadows grow longer, and the King of the Void draws closer, waiting to collect the final payment for a life they never asked for. What is the price you are willing to pay to gain strength.

I don't own anything from DC, the only thing I own is the main character who I created/dreamed up. I am not using any AI except for pictures. Sorry if grammar is bad it's been years since I've had to write anything. Follow the story of king Aurelia Marcella Luna and her journey into the DC Universe. She comes from a world of sword and magic with technology close to the 1900-2000's. The gravity of her home world is almost 80x what earth's is. In DC supermans home had around 10x-30x earth gravity that's why Zod had such a strong body and tough skin without absorbing a lot of solar radiation. It will be slightly slow for the first 6 or 7 chapters. Since she is royalty there might be between 1-3 love interests all female, it's yuri. Maybe later in the story I'll try to right lemons.

Legends speak of a race lost long before the first kingdoms we're built. it tells that people that used to live there were shaped like dragons, yet born from living shadow. And yet, their truth blurred by fear, time, and silence. Scholars quarrel. Witnesses contradict one another. But no one dares swear they are gone. Only one thing remains from them: an ancient relic, a crystal forged from light and darkness. A relic steeped in chaos and purpose. Max Carter, only fourteen-year-old, never imagined such myths could touch his quite and regular world. But when the Crystal of Chaos awakens in the form of a dark grimoire, reality itself twists. A hidden system unfolds—a lattice of skills, levels, and choices, guided by something watching from beyond the veil. With every battle, his power grows—and so does the dark presence within the crystal. A whisper. A pulse. A stolen memory. Each choice drags him deeper into a destiny older than the world itself. And somewhere beyond the shadows, an ancient force stirs. The last ember of a forgotten draconic lineage begins to breathe once more.

Transmigrated into the Underworld universe, a surgeon wakes up with the Corvinus Bloodline Matrix—a digital interface that turns bloodshed into power.

It’s a race to farm enough BP to reach Apex Form before the movie timeline destroys him

I’m not a gamer. In fact, I barely touched games—never had the time or interest. I’m a 23-year-old college dropout, part-time construction worker, and full-time avoider of adult responsibilities. That is, until my little sister nagged me into trying a romance simulation game called Echoes of the Crimson Throne. I played it. Liked it more than I expected. I even completed it. And the next thing I knew… I woke up inside the game. Not as the hero. Not even as a love interest. I was now the personal attendant of Alice Draken—the villainess, the Prince’s fiancée, and the iron-fisted Ruler of the North. A woman whose downfall was guaranteed... unless I do something about it. --- Goals:- 50 GT tickets:- 3 Bonus Chapters. 100 GT tickets:- 5 Bonus Chapters ---- The MC act little naive at least till 9 chapters but that's it.

Kaito was thrust into the world of Naruto. But just as he was about to die, he awakened the Rinnegan—and from that moment, crossed over into the One Piece world. There, he began absorbing and refining the power of reality itself—each breath pulling in the essence of truth. With no system to rely on, he forged his own path—surpassing conventional limits, using the lives of powerful beings as fuel. And then he finally fused twelve Devil Fruits into a single source of supreme might... ... (Kaito can absorb the power of devil fruit with his rinnegan)

She was running from death. She ran straight into him. Cassian doesn’t save people. He controls empires from the shadows, destroys those who cross him, and never allows weakness near him. Yet when he finds a bloodied girl on the side of the road—eyes sharp even as she’s dying—he makes a choice he never should have. Mira is not weak. She is not ordinary. And she is not safe. He saves her. He hides her. He keeps her. What begins as protection slowly turns into possession. As Mira’s past resurfaces and her rare bloodline becomes something others would kill for, Cassian realizes one terrifying truth: He doesn’t just want to protect her. He doesn’t want to lose her. And Mira is about to learn that being loved by him is far more dangerous than being hunted.

When Earth changed and the System awakened humanity, Jin was granted the same powers as everyone else. Like other hunters, he received levels, stats, and quests from the System. However, unlike ordinary hunters, Jin awakened a rare SSS-class—Shadow Hunter. Along with this class, he obtained two unique abilities.While other hunters followed the System’s rules, Jin began walking a different path. With every shadow he devoured and every battle he survived, he moved closer to a power that even the System could not predict. In a world filled with monsters, hunters, and hidden secrets, Jin’s rise from an ordinary hunter to the Shadow Hunter would change the fate of Earth itself.

One crazy night in Vegas. One blurry chapel. One marriage certificate neither of them remembers signing. Elara Kane wakes up married to Damian Voss — the same ruthless CEO who just bought out her company and left her jobless. He wants an annulment yesterday. She wants to strangle him.
