Chapter 1
"Ack! Dirty water again!"
I complained, looking down at my soaked body, nothing to save my school uniform that had been splashed with a bucket of dirty water from the floor mop. I looked straight out into the hallway where a bunch of boys were happily high-fiving each other. They must have done this to me.
I wasn't just guessing for no reason, but they were the gang that bullied me every day.
Junigo Merski, a brat, but highly respected because of his wealthy parents, who were always the biggest donors to the school I attended. He liked to bully people, including me, but his bullying became even more intense after he caught me doing something he thought deserved ridicule.
No, I didn't steal or rape a woman, I don't like to do that. It's not that I'm law-abiding, but I'm just not interested.
Yes, I'm not interested in women.
"Your body should be clean because of this water, ouch! It stinks! What kind of water did you use to wash this gay slut's body?" Junigo pinched his nose with two fingers to block out the smell.
"Dirty water from the floor mop, didn't you ask for it yourself?"
"Oh! Right! I almost forgot. But of course this water is much cleaner than the dirty body of this dildo-loving gay boy. What are you thinking? A superstar in this school would use your dirty hole? Don't even dream about it! Can you see Jade's face when the news about you spread around this school? Not to mention her, even I was disgusted by you."
Junigo kicked me in the head and left with his gang, leaving me drenched from the dirty water that fell from the trap he set for me.
I'm Jou Porska, an ordinary student who's lucky to go to school just because I'm good at academics. Of course, no one liked me because of that annoying news. I cursed Junigo, who was too curious about my affairs and finally caught me masturbating in the school bathroom, imagining Jade as my sex partner.
Yes, you heard right. Jade is one of the most popular students in this school, she's pretty and rich, but she doesn't care about me and just stares at me disgustedly from a distance. At least that's better.
I don't understand why Junigo is always so mean to me, what's wrong with me being gay? I never bothered him anyway, except when I sighed every night while calling his name in the bedroom. But that's right, it doesn't bother him because he doesn't know.
Stupid, that's the word for me.
You're not wrong, guys, I actually liked Junigo too. I got so excited at the thought of that 6.5 meter tall body trapping me underneath. That blonde hair with that fox-like stare always made me want to sensually bite my lip in front of him. I'm a total bitch and I love it. But unfortunately I had to watch my attitude if I didn't want to get beat up by Junigo.
The school bell rang, signaling that the school day was over. I took my change of clothes out of my bag and changed in the bathroom. I had expected this, because it wouldn't be the first time that I got splashed by Junigo and his gang of friends.
"Ah! Lucky I still have time," I muttered, looking at my watch.
I ran quickly out of the school gate, France was still quite bright as I made my way to the place I wanted to visit today.
A group of people were crowded into a building with many special lights illuminating some objects that were deliberately displayed for many visitors to see.
Yes, I'm going to an art exhibition.
The reason I'm here is because it's the only entertainment I enjoy that I can easily go to. I like art very much, especially paintings. And I'm always interested in any painting, even if it's not as big as a painting that's always put in the corner of a museum room where people rarely look at it.
"Beautiful..."
I looked at a painting displayed in the corner of the museum room, still the same and nothing had changed. I even memorized the layout of this painting without even looking at it.
The painting in front of me was like a replica of my fantasy that came true when a poor man fell in love with two figures he could not reach. An angel who doesn't want to love him because she doesn't want dirty people, and a devil who is too evil and only wants to play with people through human nature that has a sense of love.
Just so you know, this painting is actually the biggest reason I came here, just for this painting, even though I can look at it through the photos I have saved in my cell phone gallery.
"Tsk, damn. This always reminds me of those two," I muttered excitedly.
"Do you like this picture, young man?"
An old man who was a janitor at the museum greeted me, he was often seen but also disappeared suddenly like a mysterious magician.
"Oh right, you must know because I always take the time to stare at this painting."
The grandfather laughed softly and stood beside me as he looked at the painting. "This painting is haunted, many are afraid to look at it. If you are brave enough, you will definitely be rewarded."
I frowned and turned my head. "A gift? What kind of gift do you mean?"
The grandfather just walked away without saying much. "You'll find out later."
Hearing that, I just fell silent, looking at the man's decrepit body slowly moving away towards the crowd of people looking at other artwork. I shrugged and tried not to care.
Then I got busy looking at the painting again. I was always excited when I fantasized about Junigo and Jade, they were too beautiful and I was too gay to deny my love for them.
If I could only enter the world in the painting, I would definitely be the naked man in the painting. Surrounded by Jade, who is the angel there, and Junigo, who is the devil in the painting. Isn't that harmonious? The pictures are very similar and match in analogy.
I was right, wasn't I?
"Hm, I don't know. That's never going to happen," I said, trying to bring myself back to reality.
After feeling quite satisfied looking at the painting, I decided to go home. I had to prepare for a part-time job, an orphan like me couldn't get food if he didn't work.
"Goodbye, beautiful painting, I'll be back..."
As I was about to step away, suddenly my legs seemed to be sucked in by something. It was very strong and I couldn't escape the strong pull. I couldn't see what was happening, but when I opened my mouth to scream, I couldn't hear myself.
I tried to reach for something, but my grip slipped and I was sucked away. Immediately my surroundings faded, nothing was visible, and I realized that I was losing consciousness.
"Am I going to die? It's ridiculous that I died after looking at a painting.

A pack of their own
The Pack: Rule Number 1 - No Mates
"Let me go," I whimper, my body trembling with need. "I don't want you touching me."
I fall forward onto the bed then turn around to stare at him. The dark tattoos of Domonic's chiseled shoulders, quiver and and expand with the heave of his chest. His deep dimpled smile is full of arrogance as he reaches behind himself to lock the door.
Biting his lip, he stalks toward me, his hand going to the seam of his pants and the thickening bulge there.
"Are you sure you don't want me to touch you?" He whispers, untying the knot and slipping a hand inside. "Because I swear to God, that is all I have been wanting to do. Every single day from the moment you stepped in our bar and I smelled your perfect flavor from across the room."
New to the world of shifters, Draven is human on the run. A beautiful girl who no one could protect. Domonic is the cold Alpha of the Red Wolf Pack. A brotherhood of twelve wolves that live by twelve rules. Rules which they vowed could NEVER be broken.

But she doesn’t know about the child she’s carrying or that the moment she left, Domonic decided rules were made to be broken - and now will he ever find her again? Will she forgive him?
The Human Among Wolves
My stomach twisted, but he wasn’t finished.
"You're just a pathetic little human," Zayn said, his words deliberate, each one hitting like a slap. "Spreading your legs for the first guy who bothers to notice you."
Heat rushed to my face, burning with humiliation. My chest ached — not from his words alone, but from the sick realization that I had trusted him. That I had let myself believe he was different.
I was so, so stupid.

The mafia princess return
Accardi
“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.

Let Them Kneel
Cast out by her pack. Forgotten by the Lycans.
She lived among humans—quiet, invisible, tucked away in a town no one looked at twice.
But when her first heat comes without warning, everything changes.
Her body ignites. Her instincts scream. And something primal stirs beneath her skin—
summoning a big, bad Alpha who knows exactly how to quench her fire.
When he claims her, it’s ecstasy and ruin.
For the first time, she believes she’s been accepted.
Seen.
Chosen.
Until he leaves her the next morning—
like a secret never to be spoken.
But Kaelani is not what they thought.
Not wolfless. Not weak.
There is something ancient inside her. Something powerful. And it’s waking.
And when it does—
they’ll all remember the girl they tried to erase.
Especially him.
She’ll be the dream he keeps chasing… the one thing that ever made him feel alive.
Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.
Rise of the Banished She-Wolf
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.

Falling For The Biker: The Vice President's Girl
His eyes darken, flicking to my mouth.
"It's wrong. Your brother would slit my throat for just standing this close. But tell me, little bird" his breath ghosts my skin, "are you trembling because you hate me… or because you've wanted this just as much as I have?"
Wren thought she'd buried the chaos of New Orleans for good—the clubs, the blood-soaked loyalties, the men who lived and died by their kuttes. Seattle gave her everything she ever wanted: freedom, love, a future.
But one betrayal shatters it all.
Dragged home by tragedy, Wren finds herself under the watchful eye of Ezra Jax—the Raven Reapers MC's vice president and her brother's best friend. He's infuriating, dangerous, and far too tempting for a man she should never touch.
And the deeper Wren is pulled back into his world, the more she realizes nothing about her past—or about Ezra—is what she believed.
In the chaos of gang wars, mounting debts, and old betrayals, he becomes the one constant. The more she fights him, the harder she falls. And the more he pushes her away, the more lethal his pull becomes.
Because in this world, love isn't sweet.
It's brutal. Bloody.
And it's bound to break them both.
When loyalty is everything and love can cost your life, will Wren risk her heart on the one man she was never meant to love?
