Sullivan's Girl

For years, Anna never thought Sullivan was the type of man anyone should go to for help. Heck! She didn't think he was the type of man anyone should be seen with. She hated him. Secretly. Deeply. Loathed his presence, yet the man always managed to crawl up her view. The reproach was almost mutual one would think. Sullivan didn't bother with Anna. She was too high class, too busy hating him while keeping his secret, too absorbing. Too much of everything he shouldn't be giving in to. Their pseudo-relationship was perfunctory at best. He was good at keeping his emotions for her at bay. At least that's what he liked to think. Until she crashed into his building, ripping his perfectly quiet world apart in a fleet of seconds. Until he realised the persona he built wasn't as strong as he thought. Brought closer by a choice of nature, the relationship between them steadily bloomed into demanding focus from the man. As a world of the supernatural opened before her, a twist of fate threatened repeat. Unaware that their singular enemy—closest and nearest to their lives—was determined for their fate to reach a vile null, Anna banked on Sullivan's protection, taking pleasure in his attention and interest. Yet, the knowledge she lacked was that peculiar interest is often overwhelming. Unhealthy. Dangerous. Obsessive. And a path of thorn that tears at the most precious skin. ■■■■■■■ “Are you hiding, little bird?” His tone was different from the usual. It wasn't the coo she knew, neither was it the song of calmness that often emanated from him. It was vibrating. An allure that in a dark and dangerous way promised a touch that would drift her alive. Annabelle kept her hand to her mouth, her heart racing past its usual rate. She wondered in that moment—now that she knew what he was—if he could hear her heart beat. As if the universe was sending her a response, she felt him stop. Right above where she hid. Holding a shaky breath, she raised her head, feeling the pressure of his feet on the wood that obscured her view from him. Surely, his ability can't go underground. Surely, the scent of watermelon and potatoes would mask her. Yet…the low chuckle that sounded like a sinister laughter made her heart jump, as her legs gave away. He lifted the wooden pallet, their gazes colliding in a fit of what seems to be prey and predator instinct. A tiny smirk was playing on his face now, the same one she was used to. And the evidence was as glaring as daylight. Blood streak marked his crisp white shirt, drooling down the side of his face to his lips—his hands, a crimson bloody mess against rich skin. The stale of another man's death lingering around him, morphing his aura and forever confirming what he is. What he will always be. “Little bird…” “Please…” Huge palm reached out to pat her nest of hair, definitely leaving behind strokes of blood. The metallic iron scent assaulted her nose in the small space she hid. He was after her heart—an organ she feared he might mean in the literal sense. As she remained in the squatting position, watermelon threatening to squash beneath her knees, she felt his pat. Once. Twice. As soothing as always for a creature like him. “I wished upon you little bird. You cannot run from me.” His words were a promise, a seal that bounded them together. Forever. ■■■■■■■ !!!This book will contain dark smut chapters but a series of warnings will be issued beforehand. So…you will be fine ^.^

Becoming Lailah: Married to my Twin Sister's Billionaire Husband

Mailah has spent her life searching for something she couldn’t name—until the day fate brings her face to face with her twin sister, Lailah, after fifteen years apart. Raised in separate worlds—one of hardship, the other of elegance—the sisters are finally reunited. Their time together is fleeting… but unforgettable. And then Lailah drops a shattering truth: she's dying. After Lailah’s death, Mailah receives two letters—one revealing a hidden life, the other offering her a choice that borders on the unthinkable. Lailah had been married to a reclusive billionaire who never knew she was ill. And now, she’s giving Mailah the chance to step into her shoes, to take her place in a world of unimaginable luxury—and carefully buried lies. With only a wedding photo and cryptic instructions to guide her, Mailah enters a sprawling estate where no one greets her, no one questions her presence… and no one seems to care that Lailah has changed. Days blur into silence. Weeks pass without a glimpse of the man she’s meant to call her husband. Until one night, the bedroom door creaks open. He walks in—her husband, smelling of whiskey and loss. Tall. Devastating. Tragic. Drunk on sorrow, he calls her “Lailah” with aching tenderness and reaches for her like a man grasping at a dream. His touch sends fire through her veins, and in that moment, Mailah realizes: nothing in Lailah’s letters prepared her for him. He is not just handsome—he’s magnetic, burdened with mystery, and unknowingly grieving a woman who’s already gone. But as Mailah falls deeper into his world—and his arms—she must tread carefully. She is living a lie in the name of love, and the truth could ruin everything. Can a love born of deception still be real? And if he discovers who she really is… will he choose her anyway?

In the realm of the God of Time, day and night are but a thought away, and time stops and flows backwards only for him. On campus, Shiraishi Shin is a gentle, cheerful, and sunny male god, but when facing strange people, he is a cold-blooded judge and a grim reaper. The city's impurities, the Amazon lurking in the shadows, the constellation apostles on campus, the Shocker monster causing chaos, and monsters from other knight worldviews in the dimensional rift, and the BOSS. When he is Kamen Rider Cronus, he puts his index finger to his lips and says, "Shh, during the trial, the scene must remain serious." When he was Kamen Rider Eternal, he gave a thumbs-down sign and said, "When you get to hell, just say my name, Shinigami, and you can skip the toll." When he is in Kamen Rider Evol Black Hole form, his right hand spins like a black hole: "This day next year will be your death anniversary, Ciao." When he was the Blade of the God of War, he pressed his thumb down on his index finger and said, "Don't misunderstand, I just want to kill you all, or be killed by you all." When he is Oma Zi-O: "If you do not bow to the king, you have already lost your true destiny. Your name is on the Reincarnation Stele. Bow with each step. If you are devout and sincere, your sins will be halved on the road to rebirth." All sorts of weirdos: What? I'm taking on the Knight Boss one-on-one? ... The tentative list of female leads includes: Alisa who speaks Russian from time to time, Shiina Mahiru, the angelic neighbor, Okada Yuriko, the eccentric Takumi, Kirisaki Chitoge, Kato Megumi, and Kasumigaoka Utaha, the black-stocking fanatic.
