After devoting seven years of my life to loving a man, I ended up receiving a painful breakup on my birthday. This shattered my reasoning, and in a haste to escape reality, I ventured into a town rumored to be the lair of the Devil, but little did I know that it was actually the lair of Dracula.

At that point, the only thing that could resurrect me was love, but I believed I didn't deserve it, and I shut my heart completely. Just like in a fairytale, I found my Prince Charming, a cunning but funny man who drove my heart crazy. He wanted something more than just friendship; unknown to us that a huge secret would soon be revealed… I am the evil dragon goddess's daughter!

These questions should always ring in your head at night:

Where do you go when you fall asleep? What were you in your former life? Does the afterlife really exist?


When I looked up, our eyes met. I quickly looked away, feeling a blush creeping onto my cheeks.

"Excuse me, my beautiful lady," he said. “Can I sit beside you?” He asked politely.

I was too flustered to reply, and my heart raced when he smiled at me. I felt a flush of embarrassment tingling my cheeks as he called me a beautiful lady, a phrase I hadn't heard in ages. Unsure of how to respond, I awkwardly shrugged my shoulders, gesturing towards the empty chair beside me.

“Thank you," he said appreciatively and sat down. “I believe we'll discover a lot of things together,” he murmured under his breath.

Immyria is a princess on a mission. Does she have what it takes to travel worlds and save her kingdom?

Friends who ditch her. A pod of killer whales. A limping cruise ship. All reasons Iris finds herself stranded on a deserted island with the handsome Navy SEAL...Iris McLaughlin was having a great time on the cruise until the Navy SEAL grabbed her and towed her into a lifeboat. Okay, so maybe "a great time" is a bit of an overstatement. Iris hadn't enjoyed being late to orientation, being the last one on the boat, or sharing a wall with the obnoxious Navy SEAL who has a staring problem.But hey, at least that off-the-shoulder swimming suit her sister had said would work, actually worked.When a pod of killer whales attacks the cruise ship, the captain calls for people to abandon the ship. Justin Brunner, retired Navy SEAL, tows Iris over the side of the boat without a second thought. In the morning light, they discover they're the only ones in a lifeboat and the cruise ship is long gone. Oh, and so are the whales.So maybe Justin had acted a little quickly. He'd been trained to do just that, so she can't really blame him. Can she?They eventually make their way to a tiny speck of an island in the huge Pacific Ocean, relying solely on Iris's hip pack of emergency supplies and Justin's strength, intelligence, and calm demeanor in a crisis. As they navigate the obstacles of food, shelter, and water on the island, a new player arrives: Their feelings for each other.Justin feels like he's playing catch-up because of his possibly premature actions, and Iris is sure a man like him won't be interested once they get back to civilization. Will she risk her heart for the tattooed SEAL? Or will Justin have to fight as hard for her as he did in the Navy?

At first, Catherine says no.

The man across from her, Eric Wood, CEO of Wood & Sons Legacies (WSL), is as powerful as he is insufferable. Cold, controlling, dangerously magnetic… an Alpha in every cruel sense of the word. His terms are simple: total exclusivity. He doesn’t just want her work. He wants to control everything — her time, her choices, her freedom. Catherine isn’t a possession. She says no.

But reality hits hard. Her world collapses. No paycheck. Her alcoholic, irresponsible father burns through the emergency funds. And her fourteen-year-old brother, Liam, will have to drop out of school if she doesn’t find money fast. Catherine is alone, cornered by the impossible.

Pride doesn’t feed anyone. And dignity doesn’t pay the debts.

Broken but out of options, she has no choice. She goes back to Eric and accepts his terms. She signs.

From that moment on, she belongs to him. He clears every debt… but in exchange, she’s at his disposal. Completely.

In this world, humans know nothing about werewolves. But Catherine starts noticing things she can’t explain away. Looks, instincts, behavior… Eric isn’t normal. A quiet, crawling fear takes root in her and grows every day.

Cornered, Eric finally tells her the truth: he isn’t just a man. He’s a werewolf. An Alpha.

Catherine realizes the horror of what she’s done: she just sold her freedom to a creature she never thought could exist.

Now she has to survive two terrifying truths: she sacrificed her independence to save her brother… and the man who owns her isn’t human.

"I do not want to be a ruler, they hate me, how can a ruler be hated by her people!" Princess Audrey screamed with pain in her eyes.

Saying this, she ran away from the palace and ventures into the woods only to meet an immortal Lycan of the myths, one she never believed in.

Randall is an immortal Lycan placed under a curse which got him trapped deep in the woods for a thousand years until a human princess broke the curse, a first sight that sparked nothing but feelings of fated mates.

Will Randall be able to accept this? And can an Audrey resist the possessive grab of the immortal Lycan of all time.

Investigative journalist Justine Sky will go to great lengths to find out the truth. Even if it means rubbing elbows with the city's most feared billionaire.
As a prime time crime solver, she’s tackled a great deal of scandals during her career, but nothing could prepare her for a life with Bentley Thomas.

With all fingers pointing to him as Ivy Smith’s slayer, Justine becomes hellbent on exposing him.
After pulling strings to get an invite into his mysterious world of luxury, Justine enters, thinking she'll be met by a cold and vicious mobster. Instead, he reels her in with soft charm and a passion that catches her off guard. Their chemistry is automatic, and Bentley is more of a hopeless romantic than she ever thought he could be.
However, even though he's quite the charmer, Bentley does harbor secrets of his own. When Justine learns that he might have been the last person to see Ivy alive, her doubt settles in once again. It's her relentless fight for the truth and growing love for Bentley that makes her dig deeper. Only to find out that the killer is someone she knows very well.
As the danger of the investigation sneaks closer, Justine is caught in a deadly game of ransom, and Bentley doesn’t hesitate to risk everything he has to save her. In a world full of lies, secrets, and betrayal, she has to trust someone. But is Bentley her most dangerous enemy, or the only one who has been telling the truth?

Those were the words of my mate, my enemy and the bane of my existence, Onyx. After having my grandfather taken away from me and my parents killed, I was forced to become a slave for the same man who took everything away from me and took my right to the crown as queen of vampires. As cruel as fate was, I lived the rest of my life in his castle as a slave without a mate while others made fun of me.

I thought my fate would change when I found out I was bound to the son of my captors but alas, there's more trouble to be found when your mate ends up tormenting you alongside his brother, now I'm trapped as their toy but who will I choose to have me forever?

"Rumi! It's time to get up!"

​

What the hell is wrong with this woman? She keeps shouting for no reason. I was not looking forward to today. I'm starting my new school today in the middle of the semester. I got expelled from my other schools for fighting and arguing with the staffs. I have a big mouth and it seems to put me in a lot of trouble. I got expelled from my last school because I beat the hell out of three guys and the reason I got expelled from my other school was for beating the hell out of the security guard and arguing with the principal. A lot of people are afraid of me just because I don't talk too long, I don't argue for too long one wrong word or move from you and you're getting knocked out. I don't care who you are as long as my hands can reach you you're getting hit. My name is Rumi Richards. I am 18 years old and I live with my father and step mother. My father remarried after my mom died and I don't get along most times with him and his new wife. Don't ask why.

​

Oh and i'm also gay.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

​

"Rumi, it's time to go."".

​

I sighed. "I heard you the first time lady."

​

"Rumi don't be rude!" My father said as he walked pass my room.

​

Why do parents have to be so annoying. I got up and went to the bathroom and took a shower and combed my hair. I got dress and went downstairs I sat at the table while my step mom brought my breakfast but I ignored her and use my laptop to push the plate away. I don't mean to be rude so early but I'm not in the mood to deal with my parents or to acknowledge her burnt pancakes.

​

"Ready for your first day honey?" she ask.

​

"No, I don't want to go."I replied.

​

"Well you're going." My dad said. He was rubbing my step mother's belly and smiling like he's crazy, She's pregnant with my sibling.

​

He waited for me for two years. I turned him down twelve times. Every time he told me he liked me, I stayed silent. Every time he asked, "Have you really never felt anything for me?" I would turn my face away. I thought I would have endless chances. I thought he would always be there. Now when I close my eyes, all I can see is the last question he asked me under the moonlight. I thought it was glory. Freedom. The victory I deserved. Not until his body fell beneath the moonlight, not until I had everything, not until I started jolting awake from nightmares on countless full-moon nights, did I realize that the silver sword I drove into his heart had also pierced my own life.

They say you only appreciate something only when you've lost it.For Alpha Declan Silvercrest, that lesson came three days too late.

For three years, I built his pack's medical center from nothing. For three years, I stood by his side as his Luna. For three years, I begged for scraps of his attention while he catered to his "sick" childhood sweetheart, Selene.

When the pack doctor told me I had three days to live from silver poisoning, something inside me finally broke not my heart, but my chains.

In seventy-two hours, I signed over everything: my medical center to Selene, my trust fund to my ungrateful sister, my mate bond back to Declan. Everyone praised me for finally being selfless and mature.

What they didn't know? I wasn't dying. I was escaping.

I faked my death, exposed their lies, and disappeared into the night. But the biggest twist? I'm not the orphaned human they thought I was. I'm the lost Nightshade heir and I'm done playing weak.

Now Declan's at my door, his pack crumbling, begging for another chance. But I already gave him three years.

He had three days to love me. Now he has forever to regret it.

He said he loved me, wishing me a long, long life. But while I was in labor, he literally made a bet with his side piece—gambling on if I’d leave the delivery room dead or alive.

The moment Alexander lost his memory, I chose to lie: "I'm your girlfriend."

I maintained that lie for seven whole years.

For seven years, I lived like a shadow by his side, watching the disgust in his eyes after his memory returned, enduring every humiliation he gave me for Charlotte's sake. Until I held our dead child and swallowed that bottle of sleeping pills.

When I was reborn and opened my eyes, facing the same amnesiac Alexander, this time I said: "I'm just your friend."

Then I turned around and married his brother Daniel.

When Alexander knelt in the rain crying and begging for my forgiveness, when he desperately rescued Daniel from the rubble, when he was finally found breathless in his room— I no longer wanted to look back.

When my parents and my fiancé Gilbert asked me once again to donate my kidney to my cousin Yvonne, who was hospitalized with kidney failure, I didn't cry or scream.

I simply said one word: "Okay."

My parents and Gilbert were stunned. They rushed to have me sign the voluntary donation form, afraid I’d change my mind.

Some days later, they sent me to the operating room.

Dad said, "Yvonne will finally be saved. We're so proud of you."

Mom said, "After the surgery, we'll make it up to you."

Gilbert looked tenderly at Yvonne and said, "When you're better, where should we travel?"

What they didn't know was that the day I agreed, I'd just received my diagnosis, stage four cancer. Three months to live.

As I lay on the cold operating table, as the anesthesia began to take effect, I only wanted to know one thing:

If I die on this operating table, will they regret it?

Seven years ago, he gave me 52 love letters, promising to prove his love through each of the 52 weeks of a year.

Seven years later, I burned them one by one—each betrayal claiming another letter.

Layla thought she had married her fairy tale—the coffee-stained graduate student working late nights in the lab, the tender man who wrote her love letters every single day. She used her mother's inheritance to fund his education, stayed by his side through countless sleepless nights, even sacrificed her own Harvard opportunity for his dreams.

But everything changed when Mia appeared—young, beautiful, and brilliant.

The public humiliation, the ruthless betrayal, the cold calculation... With each heartbreak, she burned another letter he had written with his own hand. From 52 to 51, from hope to despair, from deep love to complete devastation.

When the last love letter turned to ash, the man finally realized—he had lost her completely.

Alpha King Rowan always believed his impregnable empire was his divine right.

He had no idea that the massive barrier keeping their enemies at bay was solely sustained by me, draining my magic dry every single day just to hold it together.

To please his delicate new Queen, he stripped me of my military command and allowed others to mock me as "a stray wolf living off his charity."

He thought I would cry, throw a tantrum, and beg for his mercy.

Instead, I calmly sliced open my palm and severed the bloodline contract that protected his mountain range.

The night I left, a blood moon hung high in the sky.

The Court's barrier shattered instantly, the border armies defected, and his throne was reduced to ruins in the blink of an eye.

Meanwhile, I stepped into a Sanctuary that had been silent for centuries, awakened the ancient oath stones, and became the sole deity worshipped by every werewolf in North America.

He finally realized he was never some chosen king.

He had simply, with his own two hands, driven away his only salvation.

On what should have been the happiest night of my life, I discovered a brutal truth—my fiancé Asher, whom I'd loved for seven years, was having an affair with my sister Janet in a storage room. Even worse, they were plotting to take everything from me!

"That idiot still thinks I'm the helpless little wolf pup from the orphanage who needed her protection... She has no idea I now prefer cunning women like you."

Hearing those words from their own mouths, my heart shattered completely. In my rage, I decided to fight fire with fire, rescuing the mysterious werewolf Eric from a dangerous containment facility just before his execution. I thought I'd found my weapon for revenge, never knowing this "dangerous" wolf harbored an even greater secret.

I died on my 28th birthday.

My family was throwing a birthday party for my sister Stella—yes, we share the same birthday, but in this house, only hers was worth celebrating.

My corpse was slowly rotting in the storage room while laughter and birthday songs echoed from the living room. They thought I was just "throwing another tantrum," completely unaware of the torment I had endured before dying.

The irony was crushing: I had spent five years ghostwriting musical compositions for her, making her the "genius composer" everyone adored. Meanwhile, I—the real creator—was dismissed as nothing more than a jealous older sister.

By the time they finally discovered my body, guided by the stench of decay, it was far too late.

But death was only the beginning of my revenge.

Every single person who had hurt me would pay the price.

Including those I loved most.

I had given my whole heart to my boyfriend Tristan, yet during a game of Truth or Dare at the party, when he lost, he kissed his childhood sweetheart Celeste without the slightest hesitation. When I confronted him in utter devastation, he merely regarded me with impatience, urging me not to be such a poor sport. At that moment, Tristan's perpetually silent twin brother suddenly stepped forward, seized the 'passionate kiss' dare card from the table, fixed his gaze intently upon my lips, and tilting his head with an air of innocent inquiry, asked: "Sister-in-law, if he can play, are you able to play as well?"

To marry Damian Thorne, I almost died thirteen times.

Over three years, I planned twelve weddings. Each one left me bleeding.

The first time: a runaway truck crashed into the bridal boutique, crushing my right leg.

The second time: the church ceiling collapsed during rehearsal, leaving me broken and bloodied.

The third time: poisoned champagne at the reception nearly killed me as I foamed at the mouth.

...

Manhattan's elite whispered that I was cursed.

But I still loved him desperately.

Until the thirteenth time. That bloody rainy night, three thugs cornered me in an alley and stabbed me seven times—two to the chest, three to the abdomen, two to the back. I lay dying in my own blood, yet somehow survived.

After I healed, I accidentally overheard Damian talking to his assistant.

"Mr. Thorne, she almost really died this time... Maybe we should stop? If your grandfather finds out..."

"We can't stop," Damian said wearily. "Her father saved my life. Grandfather is hell-bent on me marrying her. But DAMN IT, I love Selena, not her."

"As long as she won't give up, these accidents have to continue until she gets the message and leaves on her own."

I trembled as I touched the bandages covering my wounds, tears falling silently.

All these years, the man I desperately loved had been meticulously planning my death.

But he didn't know that this time, he really wouldn't have to marry me anymore.

My husband, Arthur, forced me to take private training sessions with his buddy Marcus, saying my body wasn’t good enough for him to really enjoy himself in bed. But on the very first day, Marcus started getting handsy with me.

“Coach, stop. I’m here to work out, not have an affair,” I bit back a moan, trying to push away the “help” he was giving me with my squats.

What I didn’t expect was for him to start rubbing his thing against my pussy.

I'm a half-blood succubus who's spent years burying my instincts under endless work.

Until the day my sister sent me a housekeeper.

He slipped on a collar without hesitation and pressed the leash into my palm.

"Master."

"I belong to you."

And just like that, everything I'd fought to suppress came roaring back.

She was hired to teach a genius. She didn't expect to tame a monster.
He’s cold, untouchable, and notoriously dangerous. She’s pragmatic, sharp, and the only person who doesn't tremble at his name.
The deal was strictly professional. But between late-night lessons and high-stakes protection, the city’s most feared predator is starting to melt. No one expected the cold-blooded King to become a man who can't let her out of his sight.
The After-Dark Reality:
“Wife...”
“You’re the King of Seattle, Clifton. What are you afraid of?”
“A nightmare. Stay with me.”

I am engaged to the cold, arrogant CEO of the Rolston empire. But the man currently pinning me to the wall, his eyes flashing with a luminous, inhuman amber? That’s his twin brother.

By day, I play the role of the dowdy, submissive corporate assistant to survive my fake engagement and appease my greedy family. By night, I shed my disguise to become "Dark Rose," the undisputed queen of the underground street racing circuit. My plan was simple: secure my inheritance, break the engagement, and run.

But I made one fatal mistake. I caught the eye of the wrong Rolston.

Neil Rolston is known to the public as the family’s useless, lazy playboy. But beneath that harmless smile lies an actual, literal predator—a feral, bloodthirsty underworld alpha who operates by the laws of the pack. He doesn’t just know my secrets. His heightened senses can smell the adrenaline in my blood. And he is entirely, psychopathically obsessed with me.

Tim demands my corporate obedience. But Neil? Neil will sabotage his brother's empire, crash million-dollar hypercars into my enemies, and stain his hands with blood just to keep me locked in his territory.

Neil Rolston never loses. And he’s decided I am his mate.

She was cursed to fall into an eternal slumber.
Then four princes arrived.
Each wanted the cursed princess as his queen, each offering her something different—a kingdom, a crown, a rose, or a promise.
But Iserine had no intention of waiting for a prince to decide her fate.
She would choose her own crown.
Even if she had to fight fate itself to claim it.

“I just gave you pleasure,” Valen skited like it was a great achievement to boast about. He felt no guilt for his earlier sin.
“I did not ask you to.” I retaliated. It was wrong of me to fall victim to his allure. It was purely Zeus’ fault. His wolf was nicer.
“You like it though.” His voice was low and throaty with a triumphant grin. Damn his ego! “You didn’t want me to stop before.”
Blood rushed to my face and I blushed in shame as he stared at me. I stretched for a pillow and sailed it at him. He caught it with a devious chuckle.
