Faced with a certain death, Kyle has no other choice but to gamble.

Ratelsi lives in a world transformed by the Neo Opus energy storm, a world that shuns her kind. As runners, she and her best friend Timoth, were tasked with a routine delivery that goes sideways when they uncover an unexpected contraband. This small, unassuming package blurs the lines between right and wrong, leaving Ratelsi to confront who she is, decide how she must live and if she's willing to fight for a world that may never accept her.

The Gods ruled the heavens, demigods inherited divine privileges, and angels enforced their divine order. Elves claimed the Divine Forest, humans ruled the Central Lands, and dwarves possessed mountains overflowing with gold. Meanwhile, barbarians were condemned to the harshest lands in the world. Barbarians could survive in the worst environments, eat the poorest food, and endure hardships that would break ordinary people. They could tolerate almost anything the world threw at them. But there was one thing they would never tolerate. **If anyone dared to harm a member of a barbarian family, then they or he would turn the entire place red with blood.**

Lìngxiāo is the same boy Chóng Fēi believed he had killed indirectly by exposing him. Since the time Lìngxiāo was Eighteen, he has carried a strange condition that never lets him show pain or anger. As an independent exorcist with no controlling clan above him, he roams the land with three burning aims: to save the common people from darkness, to clear his own name—from his own father's murder—and to unravel the mystery behind the man who raised him before disappearing right after he learned to stand on his own. Was his father killed? Or was there something deeper than that? Who was that bloodless "uncle" who used to teach him what is distraction and what is destination? Were those teasing words—"A wave of pleasure"—something more than what he took too long to understand? Soon, his destiny took an unexpected turn. His hometown Yún Xi calls him back—not as who he used to be, but as a professional exorcist. A town haunted by a Red Robe Ghost, where no exorcist who answered the call has ever survived. When Lìngxiāo arrives, a silent surprise awaits him. The ghost is one groom or something else? why isn't his calculation matching? who hunts the heir this much? That heir is Chóng Fēi. He has spent more then seven years carrying the weight of a death he believes he caused—the death of Xiǎo Lìng, the boy who once protected him from his father's cruelty. He has spent years trapped between his father's control and the skull mummy who haunts his every step. Now, Chóng Fēi finds himself drawn to the mysterious, perpetually smiling exorcist. Something about Lìngxiāo feels familiar. Something about him makes Chóng Fēi want to trust—and want to run. He doesn't know that the man he's falling for is the same boy he's been mourning. During the investigation—through a ballad of needles and fear, all for the sake of keeping the heir alive—Chóng Fēi's one-sided longing grows into deep love. It becomes his reason to walk slower. To share belongings. To share his trauma. And Lìngxiāo, who has been searching for answers about his father and his uncle, begins to realize that the demonic energy haunting Yún Xi isn't just around him. It's around Chóng Fēi too. The ghosts are not the villains. They are victims of someone else—a mastermind who has been watching, waiting, pulling the strings. And there is more than one. The unknown one seems to be above the other. Can someone who roots for power and legacy move for the songbird whose nature is flying around, searching for his origin? And who even bothered enough to raise a hopeless boy without purpose—only to leave just when he had started to fly high and wanted to hear that simple "Do not worry, boy"? Let's find out on the surface of tears and smiles—which is not even the start or the end, but the middle of something far more complicated but ends into someone else's epic. It's slow burn and contains intimate scenes after chapter 100. Dark themes included but handled with care.

When life gives you mysterious potions… chug first, ask questions never. Blaine was having a perfectly normal day—until he wasn’t. One blink later, he’s transmigrated into the twisted world of Lord of the Mysteries, where logic takes a vacation and secrets have teeth.

For decades, humanity has lived in a world that isn't quite what it seems. Since the Great Awakening of 1952, magic, monsters, and people capable of supernatural feats have existed beneath the surface of ordinary society. And while most people remain blissfully unaware of the hidden world around them, eighteen-year-old Cyrus Moore is about to have that ignorance ripped away, whether he wants it to or not. After a devastating accident leaves him on the brink of death, Cyrus awakens to something impossible: a power he never knew that existed within him. Suddenly thrust into a world of sorcerers, supernatural creatures, secret organizations, and dangerous mysteries, Cyrus discovers that surviving is far more complicated than simply learning how to control his newfound abilities. Every answer seems to uncover another secret, and every step forward draws him deeper into a conflict that has been unfolding long before he was ever made aware of it. With enemies lurking in the shadows and allies whose true intentions aren't always clear, Cyrus must learn who he can trust while struggling to understand what is happening around him. But the deeper Cyrus ventures into this hidden world, the more he realizes that his awakening may not be all that it seems. Something is changing. Reality is beginning to crack at the edges. Old mysteries are beginning to surface. Dangerous forces are moving in the shadows. And the boundary between humanity and the supernatural is becoming increasingly fragile. Cyrus wanted an escape from an ordinary life. Instead, he awakened to a world where magic is real, monsters are hunting, and the greatest danger may be the truth waiting to be uncovered. The awakening has begun, and reality will never be the same….

In Spheraphase, power is woven into the very existence of the world. Dynasties rule vast territories. Gods walk among mortals. Primordial beings shape reality. Ancient bloodlines determine the heights a person can reach while the mysterious Supreme Entities watches over the countless forces that govern existence. Vastarael Richinaria, heir of the Richinaria Dynasty and Prince of Anqerise, was born into a life of privilege, power and expectations. Yet beneath his calm demeanor lies someone whose understanding of the world will eventually surpass everything he was taught to believe. From his early days among the Dynasties to his rise through the Enlightenment stages, Vastarael encounters beings and forces that challenge his understanding of Divinity, existence and reality itself. Along the way, he builds bonds with those who become his beloveds, allies and family, while his journey leads him towards the mysterious realms and the secrets hidden beyond Spheraphase. The world he knows is not what it appears to be. Its consciousness, its Divine Beings, its systems, and even its existence are connected to something far greater—and far more horrifying. With the fate of everything he cares about hanging in the balance, Vastarael begins preparing for a conflict that may take thousands of years to reach its conclusion.

Viola was once the pride of her pack, destined to rise above everyone on the day she received her wolf. Instead, that day marked her fall. She had been the villain in countless stories, untouchable and adored by the Alpha heir, until the night her wolf was supposed to awaken, and fate played its cruelest joke. She fell to the lowest rank in her pack, rejected by her sworn mate. Stripped of status, strength, and even her wolf, she was forced to live a life worse than that of an omega. Imprisoned and alone, Viola’s only hope of escape lay in finding her wolf, or her fated mate. Only, a dark past kept her powers dormant… and her fated mate didn’t want her. Sebastian Kade is powerful, ruthless, and chained to a past he refuses to release. Viola Linden does not belong in his world, and he wants her gone. Fate, however, disagrees. This fragile, stubborn girl refuses to leave his orbit. He does not believe in love. He does not want her. He has already lost too much. An Alpha who swore off weakness, hardened by loss and haunted by a prophecy that feels more like a curse, Sebastian is certain he will never allow another woman into his life. But the Moon Goddess is rarely kind. Viola carries something ancient within her, something dangerous, something powerful enough to defy him. Hate twists into desire. Desire ignites into fierce passion. And passion threatens to become love. But when Sebastian discovers what Viola truly carries within her, will it save him… or destroy everything he’s built? ~~~ WARNING: MATURE CONTENT! #Slow burn #Spicy #Morally Gray ML #Adventure #Angst Discord server: https://discord.gg/VMM9DXw3yP

WARNING: Some mature content!!! 18+ This is what you call Urbantasy.. Fantasy in an urban setting with a strong female lead -- a story riddled in mystery, magic, and a lot of sass. ======= CHAPTER 1 sneak peek! ======= The air between them tightened like a rope. Cael leaned closer, head tilting slightly, pulling at her waist again, smugness softened into something sharper and quieter. His eyes flicked to her lips then back to her eyes as if asking for permission he didn't need. Hunger of a different kind pumped through Cael. The hunger that Galathea unmistakably recognized as it pressed hard against her lower abs, forcing through the fabric as if it can tear through. At the sensation, Galathea's mouth parted before she could stop it. Her whole body screamed at her to either shove him away or close the last inch between their lips herself. ===== SYNOPSIS ===== Galathea Brooks spent her life surviving quietly -- counting inventory, enforcing rules, keeping her head down inside one of the most powerful art institutions in the city. It's a simple life because paint doesn't talk; power doesn't notice people like her. and names are just names. -- That is... until a painting remembered her. When ancient works buried beneath Artemis Art Gallery began to respond to Galathea's presence, she becomes the center of the system that's older than the building itself. A system that cataloged her long before she knew it existed. Her name is not a coincidence. It is a KEY. Cael Alexander, on the other hand, has always understood control. As Artemis' immaculate but dangerous CEO, he manages secrets like no other. He knows the gallery and its bowels more than anyone. He knows what's hidden; he knows what's awaken. What he didn't expect, however, was Galathea. As archaic works of art start to stir, boundaries fracture -- between observer and artifact, power and possession, restraint and desire. Every choice Galathea makes draws her deeper into fate that doesn't want permission... only acknowledgement. Mind you, awakenings don't ask when you're ready.

Yugen Fujiki wakes up in a world where everything is decided by Duel Monsters. Wars, business deals, status, even your future all comes down to the cards in your deck. There is one problem. The body he takes over is a one-star loser at a paid dueling dojo, stuck grinding part-time jobs just to buy expensive, useless cards. If Yugen wants to survive here, he needs power, and power means getting into Duel Academy. But Duel Academy does not accept weaklings. He needs three stars first. So Yugen does what this world is not ready for. While everyone chases big monsters and flashy attacks, he builds a deck that does not let the opponent play at all. Hand destruction. Trap denial. Slow, cruel control that turns every duel into a mental breakdown. His first test is a public duel against the dojo’s proud new three-star senior. By the time the crowd understands what is happening, it is already too late. ____ IF you want to support me https://p*****.com/ReagenWriter15

"What are you willing to do to achieve something? How serious are you about achieving your goals?" This was the question that Loki and the other people who came to the Four Directions sect to earn their freedom were asked on their first day in the sect. For Loki, this question was easy for him to answer because he was reborn as a slave in this world and had already defied the will of his slave master in order to join the Four Directions sect. He had braved danger and suffering to reach the Four Directions sect. So he knew what it meant to be desperate and was willing to do whatever was required of him to achieve his goal. In the world of the blessed heaven realm, there is no such thing as human rights, and freedom is a luxury that very few people have. It is said that everyone is a slave to someone. The only difference is how strong their master is. So he, just like everyone else, is under the control of someone above them. But he doesn't want to remain a slave forever. He aspires to greatness, immortality, and freedom. He wants to acquire enough power to gain control of his fate. He also wants to rise to the top of the world and be the one to control others. He even wants to gain power and control over death. In order to achieve this, he is willing to do anything. This is his answer to the question of what he is willing to do to achieve his goals. His answer to this question was why he awakened the Fenrir metac. This is a metac that can help him achieve his goals by granting him the ability to find prey, hunt prey, and devour them to strengthen himself. With the Fenrir metac, he will transform from a prey into a predator. He will even have the chance to rise to the top of the food chain and become the strongest predator. That is to be his purpose in life, and with great luck and perseverance, he might achieve it.

I woke from a dream, unintelligible mutterings echoing in my ears. I had forgotten myself, lost my past. I looked around, only to find I was already in hell, explosions rang through the blue sky, bullets ravaged the streets like a torrent, and the fires of war burned on this land without pause. The creatures who lived here had bodies that looked fragile yet were unfazed by ordinary firearms, they formed factions for their own ends, and spent their days slaughtering one another. Then, they found me... They called themselves students, and told me this place was called Kivotos. They also addressed me as, "Sensei." ---- Source: https: ()//()www.trxs( . )cc/ () tongren/ () 8630. )(html Author: Otter of Chaos

Roger Desilva. My old customer was thrusting me from behind. I was enduring pain by closing my eyes, which was a bloody mistake yet again. The same enchanting smile popped up in my mind, which I was trying to get rid of for the past 5 years, but til today, I wasn’t successful. Before I could figure out that mingling was different from snatching, it was too late. He came like a swift wind, turned my world upside down, and vanished without a trace. I became a victim. Do we deserve this? Do I deserve this? I lost everything, but till now, I have not been successful in getting rid of his thoughts. For the past 5 years, I have been trying, but he keeps winning. When will I finally be free? I can't blame him for sure, but does he have the audacity to ask for my forgiveness at least once? Will he ever show up?
