He’s her stepbrother, her sin and her biggest mistake waiting to happen. Catherine Brown thought moving in with her mother’s new husband couldn’t be harder until she met the cold, arrogant and sinfully attractive Julian Vaughn, her stepbrother. He hates her, teases her and gets under her skin everyday. He’s everything she should stay away from, off-limits and untouchable. But when his anger turns into something darker and hungrier, when he looks at her like he wants to ruin her innocence, Catherine realizes danger has a new name. And no matter how hard she tries, she can’t stop wanting the one man she’s not supposed to have. When hate turns to desire, who’s really in control? EXCERPT✨ “You’ve never had sex before?” Julian asked, disbelief flickering in his eyes. Catherine hesitated, then nodded, staring at the floor instead of him. He bit his lower lip, trying to rein in the thoughts crowding his mind. Goodness, she was too innocent for her own good. “So all you did with your previous boyfriends were just kisses and smooches?” She immediately stood, her cheeks flushed. “There are no boyfriends,” she blurted. “I’ve never even been kissed. Please don’t laugh at me.” Laugh? Hell no. Julian wasn’t laughing. He was fighting the urge to pull her close. Knowing she’d never been touched only made his hunger worse. She didn’t realize he’d moved until his breath brushed her ear, his voice dropping low and dangerous. “Catherine, just say the word and I’ll show you what it means to be touched by a man.” Her heart stuttered in her chest and he could hear every beat.

She was supposed to be just another spoiled heiress flatlining on a penthouse floor. One more overdose. One more file stamped “troubled rich girl.” Then Dr. Rowan Blackwood looked at her like she was someone not special and that single, stupid moment of boldness lit a fuse no one saw coming. Now the seventeen-year-old billionaire heir won’t stop until she owns Rowan completely. Body. Mind. Soul. She’ll buy the hospital wing if she has to. She’ll show up at 3 a.m. outside Rowan’s locked apartment door. She’ll burn every boundary, break every rule, ruin every excuse Rowan tries to hide behind because once someone sees the real, bleeding girl underneath the cocaine and couture, Isadora Ravencroft doesn’t let go. Ever. Rowan should run. Ethics scream it. The law demands it. Her career would survive it. But every time those fever-bright eyes lock on hers, every time that trembling, manic hand reaches out like it’s drowning… something inside the unflinching doctor starts to fracture. One wrong touch. One forbidden kiss in the dark. One night where detox sweat and desperate sobs blur into something neither of them can name. They’re definitely not supposed to *need* this. But obsession doesn’t ask for permission. And healing… healing can look a lot like destruction when the wrong two people find each other at the worst possible time. Welcome to the kind of love that ruins lives and might just save them anyway. Dark. Forbidden. Addictive. You won’t look away. Even when you know you should. ———— The audio was clean.  Crisp.  Every hitch, every gasp, every whispered "yes" and "more" rendered in perfect high-definition clarity. Rowan's knees buckled.  She caught herself against the door palm flat, sliding down an inch. "That's… that's illegal. You can't... you can't have that." Isadora lowered the phone slowly.  The moans cut off when she paused the video. "Illegal?" she echoed, almost gently. "Like fucking your seventeen-year-old patient in the backseat? Like letting her finger you until you screamed? Like coming home the next morning and lying to your friends that 'nothing happened'?"

The words hung in the air between us. I looked down, following his gaze, and saw it, the unmistakable bulge pressed against his pants, hard and straining. My pheromones. They were affecting him. "I would like to take you up on your offer," he muttered, his voice rugged, tipping into ravenous. Confusion whirled through me. "What offer?" "The kiss," he whispered. "Not a peck, Thea." My heart ceased beating, liquid fire filling my veins. "I want tongue.” — Dark paranormal romance Morally Grey ML Forced proximity Captor/Captive ENEMIES to lovers Fated mates Angst Smut

Your crappy mecha project isn't worth a dime compared to that reskinned cultivation trash next door making twelve million a month!" When Grant is laughed out of his office, he doesn't just walk away—he awakens the [Game Vault System]. Inside his mind lies the entire cultural heritage of Earth: the epic grandeur of World of Warcraft, the punishing narrative of Dark Souls, and the breathtaking immersion of Red Dead Redemption. Armed with these "dimension-shattering" masterpieces, Grant sets out to rewrite the rules of the entire industry. "Platforms are important, sure," Grant sneers at his former bosses. "But in my world, the product is the platform." Starting with Outlast—a horror nightmare that strips players of weapons and leaves them with nothing but their own terror—he begins to build a gaming empire. His message to the industry is simple: "You guys worry about the cash-grab. I’ll worry about creating a legend. I'll see you at the Vanguard Awards next year—I just hope your garbage isn't pulled from the store out of pure embarrassment!"

"Alright, let's go over this again. My name is Peter Parker. I'm a transmigrator reborn into the Marvel world. I was bitten by a genetically modified spider, so Uncle Ben never got the chance to tell me 'With great power comes great responsibility,' which means I'm not becoming Spider-Man. Just kidding." Bathed in the New York sun, swinging between Manhattan's towering skyscrapers, Peter Parker made his decision. He'd help the Defenders League solve crime in New York, defeat Oscorp's bio-engineered monsters, join the Avengers to handle world-threatening crises, and sometimes even travel to the multiverse to deal with Spider-Verse matters. Oh, and most importantly, prevent all impending misfortunes. The crucial point in all of this was that Peter Parker always chose to be Spider-Man himself, rather than being chosen by that spider.

Venti, who was in truth a reincarnator from Earth, had completed his grand mission as Barbatos, the Anemo Archon. Diverging from his original tragic destiny, Venti utilized his knowledge of the future to create a "Perfect Mondstadt." Through his intervention, Rostam the Wolf survived the cataclysm of Khaenri'ah and now leads the Knights of Favonius toward a golden age. Rosalyne—who was destined to become the vengeance-filled Crimson Witch—now lives happily as Rostam's wife and the city's protector. Even the Dragon Dvalin was freed from poison and suffering. After voluntarily surrendering his Gnosis for the sake of peace and sending off the Traveler, Lumine, to continue her journey, Venti intended to enter a long slumber beneath the great tree at Windrise. He wanted to retire, enjoy his wine, and let the winds blow peacefully. However, fate had other plans. When he opened his eyes, Venti was not greeted by the blue skies of Mondstadt, but by the grey clouds shrouding Orario. He was stranded in the Labyrinth City during the Dark Age—a time where the Zeus and Hera Familias had just been decimated by the One-Eyed Black Dragon, and the people's hope had sunk to its nadir. Evilus ran rampant, and despair gripped the streets. With no Mora, no Gnosis, yet with the elemental power of wind still swirling within him, Venti decided to strum his lyre once more. "This world is far too rigid and miserable. Looks like they could use a little 'freedom,' don't you think?" This is the story of how the most unserious Wind God shook the foundations of Orario, charmed the hearts of maidens with songs and smiles, and brought about a storm of change that would save the city from destruction.

In 2026, Julian Thorne was a struggling orphan and a final-year architecture student, days away from a degree that would finally change his life. Then, a glitch in reality sent him back to 1992. Now, he’s twelve years old, born into a wealthy family of elite architects, and living in a world he only knew from movies—the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With thirty years of future architectural knowledge, a "New Game Plus" attitude, and the realization that he can finally have the family he never had, Julian isn't interested in being a traditional hero. He’d rather build the gaming industry from his bedroom, "fix" Tony Stark’s terrible design choices, and construct a fortress that can survive a moon falling from the sky. But as his "mental cultivation" begins to unlock powers that shouldn't exist, Julian realizes he’s building more than just skyscrapers. He’s building the Nexus Academy—the ultimate sanctuary for a new generation of heroes. The future is coming, but Julian has the blueprints.

Born in late 1864 beneath the cold skies of Hokkaido, Akelldema Miyamoto enters a Japan caught between fading steel and rising industry. His father, Hiroshi, once a formidable samurai, has sheathed his blade to serve as a physician to a powerful lord, walking the narrow path between tradition and survival. Through harsh herbal regimens and disciplined breathwork, he forges his son into something steadier than most boys his age, preparing him for a future neither of them can fully see. By 1879, unrest coils through the country. Old loyalties are hunted. Food grows scarce in certain districts. Rumors move faster than horses. In the lord’s estate, Princess Aiko Takamori stands at the heart of fragile political balance, and Akelldema, still only fifteen, finds himself drawn into her orbit even as the ground shifts beneath them. When violence can no longer be contained, Akelldema, seventeen and nearing manhood, is chosen to escort Aiko and seven loyal companions across the Pacific to California. What awaits them is not only gold and opportunity, but the consequences of ambition unbound. In the American Wset, the brilliant and obsessive Dr. Nikolai Richtofen has traded provisions to a desperate tribe in exchange for their medicine man, seeking to master life itself. His experiments awaken a corruption that seeps into the blood, spreading by bite and turning the living into something hollow and driven by a darker will. Separated from the princess and believing his duty has failed, Akelldema is cast into a fronteir where greed, secrecy, and infection thrive in the shadows of mines and desert laboratories. Armed with his father’s teachings and the discipline to resist the taint in his own veins, he must hunt for the truth, protect what remains of his honor, and confront the man whose curiosity has begun to unravel the boundary between life and something far more dangerous.

Muten Natsu escaped prison, resisted arrest, slaughtered nobles, and wiped out the Forty-Six Houses, yet he knew he was a good child. He had wanted nothing more than to live an ordinary life as an ordinary person. Instead, he was forced to take up his Zanpakutō once again and return to Soul Society. ... “A cruel and lawless criminal has appeared in the West Rukongai.” “A cannibalistic monster, risen from the dead, is advancing on Hakutōmon.” “A crazed, bloodthirsty villain has entered Seireitei.” “Muten Natsu has destroyed Las Noches.” “Muten-sama is approaching Silbern Castle.” “His Majesty the Supreme Soul King has arrived today at his loyal Soul King Palace.” A Menos Hollow Skull Cannon, an Arrancar Spinal Spear, a Quincy Severed-Arm Bow, a Shinigami Dismembered Katana... “Let’s set personal grudges aside for now.” Muten Natsu looked his enemy up and down. “You look like you’ll be very useful.”

Buried in a mass grave. No memory. Only hunger. In a world of war and plague, the dead stay dead. But you've risen—changed. Silent heart. Withered flesh. And an overwhelming thirst for blood. Each kill makes you stronger. Each feeding brings their knowledge, their skills. But the living hunt what they fear, and survival means staying ahead of steel and fire. The dead were discarded. You refuse to stay buried.

Every two months, humans fall asleep... and awaken in another world. Chosen by the gods, they gain Devine Blessings: access to a System to help them grow stronger and are sent on Divine Expeditions to save dying civilizations or carry out "Devine Justice" in a distant world. They return as heroes, stronger each time. Ronan is different. Blessed by a sealed god, he wields a forbidden power: he absorbs the strength of anything he kills. As he rises through the ranks and battles monsters, rivals, and divine forces, disturbing truths begin to surface. Regions once saved fall again. The System grows more controlling. And Corrupted Beings of forgotten Timeliness Arise. Ronan begins to question Are the gods truly Helping these Civilizations... or using them?

Eric Santos was invisible long before he became powerful. A university dropout drowning in debt, working at a small beachside convenience store, his life was defined by limitations—until the day a mysterious interface appeared before his eyes. [Midas System Activated] The system grants him a simple but terrifying ability: Convert any authentic coin into gold of equal weight. At first, it feels like a miracle. Then it becomes a strategy. Soon, it turns into a weapon. What begins as survival quickly evolves into something far greater. Gold funds protection. Protection builds influence. Influence attracts danger. When Eric uses his newfound power to rescue Elena Lin from crushing debt tied to dangerous loan sharks, he steps into a world of organized crime, financial manipulation, and unseen forces watching from the shadows. But the real question isn’t how much gold he can create. It’s why the system chose him. Who created the Midas System? Is there a hidden cost? And are there others like him? As Eric expands from local survival to regional dominance and eventually global financial confrontation, one truth becomes clear: In a world ruled by money, the one who controls gold controls everything. Until something decides to control him.

The world didn’t end with a bang; it ended with the sound of scuttling limbs and the smell of fermented rot. A hyper-aggressive, rabies-like virus has swept across the globe, turning humanity into Crawlers, grotesque, pale predators that hunt on all fours with a feverish, frothing hunger. In the center of this grey, decaying nightmare is Aryan Blackwood. A man who was already dead inside. His life was a repetitive cycle of meaningless tasks and artificial lights. But Aryan’s grey existence is shattered when he encounters Aurora Sterling. Amidst the ash and shadow of a dying city, Aurora is a defiant burst of light. Her vibrant yellow clothing and natural auburn hair act as the first splash of color he has truly seen in years. Aryan isn't a hero but he is desparate to protect Aurora. To Aryan, Aurora is "The Dawn", the only light worth protecting in a world of shadow.

In a world ruled by strength, the Apex Tournament decides who stands at the top. Fighters from every species enter the arena backed by powerful sponsors—corporations, foundations, and factions willing to risk lives for dominance. Victories bring fame. Losses bring silence. This season, the Champion chose the fighters himself. The arenas are deadlier. The sponsors are watching closer. And a masked contender with no recorded history is tearing through matches without explanation. As alliances fracture and Miragna is pushed beyond safe limits, one truth becomes harder to ignore: The tournament isn’t about fairness. It’s about control. And someone inside the system is no longer playing to win— They’re playing to end it.

“Small goal: beat Kakashi.” Konoha, Year 42. Enrollment season. Parents chatter, sunlight filters through leaves… and then the street goes silent as a “walking boulder” rounds the corner. It’s not a prank. Not chakra. Just a plain-looking kid—sweat-soaked, shoulders bleeding under rope—dragging a massive stone toward the Ninja Academy like it’s normal. Because for Higashino Shinichi, normal is useless. No clan. No bloodline. No inheritance. But he possesses a talent far more dangerous than any kekkei genkai: What people recognize him as… becomes real. Recognize him as [Clever] and his mind sharpens. Call him [Genius] and every skill comes faster. Spread rumors of [Invincible] and his body turns absurdly tough. And when the whole shinobi world believes he can create [Miracles]… He can. So Shinichi begins the most shameless “persona project” in history—turning public perception into stacked Trait Tags, one staged “feat” at a time. Starting with the simplest performance possible: Let them see a kid carrying a boulder… and decide he was born different. But attention is a blade in Konoha. The brighter his legend shines, the faster envy, suspicion, and danger will come for him. And with one name already etched into his heart… Can he build a genius—before the shinobi world decides to break him?

After a freak accident, Ron wakes up in Orario, the Dungeon City from DanMachi. Unfortunately, he didn’t just transmigrate. He brought a Soulslike system with him—and the Dungeon absolutely despises his existence. No checkpoints. No mercy. No “safe exploration.” From the very first step, the Dungeon turns into a hostile nightmare: monsters setting ambushes on narrow bridges, enemies hiding in dark corners waiting for cheap shots, mimics disguised as treasure, twisted layouts, and paths clearly designed to make him suffer. In short—it’s Souls. Fine. He knows this game. Armed with a once-per-day resurrection, a save-slot-style card system, and a curse that makes the Dungeon actively rewrite itself just to mess with him, Ron pushes forward with a simple rule: “If your cruelty isn’t enough to break me, you don’t deserve to stop me.” ... Years later, when the Black Dragon descends upon Orario and every Familia unites with flawless battle plans—even as hope itself collapses—Ron walks up a staircase built from countless corpses and calmly sits upon the Cinder Throne. “Good.” “For the Black Dragon’s arrival… I offer up fated death.” .... This is a translation of a Chinese Novel, with minor changes in some parts of the original story.

On the night she thought would seal her happily-ever-after, her world shattered instead. Publicly betrayed by her fiancé—and humiliated by the woman she trusted most—she walks away from love with nothing but her pride intact. Romance is a luxury she can no longer afford. From that night on, she swears she will never give her heart to anyone again. Then he appears. Cold. Powerful. Untouchable. A man who doesn’t offer comfort—but a deal. A contract marriage. No love. No emotions. No expectations. Just a business arrangement that benefits them both… or so she believes. What she doesn’t know is that he has been watching her far longer than she realizes. That this marriage was never an accident. And that the calm, ruthless CEO she married is hiding an obsession that borders on dangerous. As secrets unravel and emotions spiral out of control, lines blur between hatred and desire, freedom and possession. The more she tries to protect her heart, the tighter his grip becomes. Because to him, this marriage was never temporary. And she was never meant to escape.

Dear Reader, We wish to inform you that what you are about to read is a true story in every detail. No embellishments of fiction have been added, nor has the cruelty of reality been softened or concealed. As the writer and author, we are fully aware that publishing this story may place us in danger at any moment. Even so, we have chosen to place it in your hands—not in pursuit of sympathy, but in the hope of benefit and the spread of awareness. We write these words to unveil a dark side of the lives of individuals who live among us— a life unseen by the eyes, yet one that slowly and relentlessly devours souls. Our story is not merely a tale. It is a cry. A cry of those who have lived through pain, endured betrayal, and stood on the brink of breaking. Read it with your heart before your eyes. And remember: Not everything hidden behind closed doors is well. The Lions’ Village At the farthest edges of ruin, there was a kingdom known as The Lions’ Village. It was not truly a kingdom, but an open prison ruled by creatures resembling lions with hearts turned to stone. They crushed anyone who opposed them, devoured freedom, and consumed truth, until people walked the land as if it were a minefield. From within this terror, a woman named Milan emerged. A woman who belonged to the Village, yet resembled it in nothing. Her features were calm, but within her raged a war. She dreamed of freedom, But Milan’s tragedy was not only in the Lions’ Village— it was within her own home. Her husband, Hait… was favored by the Lions. He was not merely one of their followers; he was one of the architects of oppression, one of those who dressed destruction in the garments of reason and logic. Hait convinced people that obedience was salvation, that the Lions were created to lead, and people were created to follow. And he numbed Milan with a despicable manner, tinged with darkness. Then the fire of rebellion began to ignite… first a whisper, then a scream, then a confrontation. And Hait? He grew more savage, and began to hunt Milan as though she were an existential threat to his throne. As for her… she stood alone, yet strong— strong in her voice, her truth, and a dream that still pulsed despite the ashes. And until now… the story has not ended. But it is said that on the night when freedom screams in a voice that does not fear— the ground will begin to shake beneath the feet of the Lions.
