Rule number one: Never date your brother's best friend. Rule number two: Never touch your best friend's sister.

“That child is mine. And so are you,” he commanded, his viper-green eyes pinning her in place. Grace couldn’t believe that he—Carlos Benjamin, her new CEO and eight years her junior—was the father of her unborn baby. “You can go back to that deadbeat you call a husband, or you can come with me and have everything.” ===== For the last five years of her marriage, Grace Preston, 32, believed she was broken. She couldn’t have a child, and her deadbeat husband, Charles, never let her forget it, calling her useless while she worked tirelessly to fund his failed acting career. He didn’t just break her spirit; he shattered her trust by cheating on her with her own sister. Heartbroken, Grace fled to her office late one night, seeking solace at the bottom of a bottle. She wasn’t alone. A beautiful, blond-haired man was there, nursing his own wounds. He never told her his name, but he offered her a night of oblivion. Fueled by whiskey and a desperate need for revenge, she gave in to her darkest desires, pulling the willing stranger into her web. In her drunken haze, she thought, “If my husband can have his fun, then so can I.” She never worried about protection, convinced she was barren. Until a month later, when a positive pregnancy test trembled in her hands. Grace Preston, the ‘barren’ wife, was pregnant. In a single night, the stranger gave her what Charles couldn’t in five years. Now Carlos has made his claim, pulling her into a world of immense power and lethal secrets. Will Grace escape her toxic marriage only to be trapped in this captivating young billionaire’s golden cage? Or is trading one prison for another a mistake that will cost her more than just her heart?

He's the President of the Iron Brotherhood MC. She's running from a past that wants her dead. Gunner survived hell as a Navy SEAL, but nothing prepared him for the curvy blonde who crashes into his life like a bullet through steel. Cristy Winston isn't just another pretty face, she's a witness on the run, hiding from the men who murdered her father in cold blood. One look and I know she's mine. Doesn't matter that she's eleven years younger. Doesn't matter that her cousin's betrayal runs deeper than we thought. Doesn't matter that keeping her alive might cost me everything. She's terrified. Broken. Beautiful. And under my protection now. When her best friend Helena, the underground fighter known only as Ghost—gets caught in the crossfire, the body count starts rising. Rival MCs. Dirty cops. Organ traffickers. They all want a piece of what's mine. But they forgot one thing: I'm not just some biker. I'm a trained killer. And anyone who touches my woman dies screaming.

After her grandfather's death, Bai Hanyun was disowned by her parents and cast out of the Bai family. With nowhere else to go, she left the city and returned to the countryside. There, by a twist of fate, she discovered an antique mirror hidden in the basement of her newly purchased home. From that moment on, strange events began to unfold—until one day, she stumbled upon a prayer from a young general. Feng Xiyan, besieged by the Yuezhi Tribe and betrayed by the imperial court, had been driven into a desperate corner. With no access to water, food, or medicine, he and the citizens of Xiqiang City could do nothing but await death. But just as all hope seemed lost, Heaven intervened. From that moment on, the Feng Army and the people of Xiqiang City had enough food and water, living lives more prosperous than even the Emperor himself.

Julia Hale is a beastwoman of unsettling beauty, an emergency room nurse in a large, unforgiving city, and the mother of young twins still too innocent to grasp the cost of silence. Behind her clinical composure and carefully ordered routine, Julia carries the scars of years of domestic violence, relentless humiliation, and a past that has never truly loosened its grip. Separated from Theo Desmond, her charismatic and predatory ex-husband, Julia struggles to build a stable life. She works. She raises her children. She manages her body, her desire, her exhaustion. On the surface, she is moving forward. In reality, she is still surviving. Her trauma does not erupt in screams but in interrupted gestures, intrusive memories, conflicted desire. She is in love with a woman—Stella Vance—a one-sided, silent love never spoken aloud. This attachment becomes a mirror, reflecting both what Julia longs for and what she still cannot claim. Under the Skin of a Beastwoman is neither a revenge story nor a tale of miraculous healing. It is a fragmented, intimate chronicle of a woman learning—slowly, imperfectly—to detach herself from a life built on fear, while trying to offer her children a future she was never given. An R18 urban narrative, visceral and deeply personal, where the body, desire, and memory become battlegrounds for survival and reclamation.

Will they end up fixing each other’s lives… or destroying them beyond repair?

Escaping poverty and loss, Victoria finally found peace with her stepfamily—until strange, non-human entities tore her world apart. Left bleeding on the road, hovering between life and death, she was met by an Angel—not a savior, but a Dealer of Fate. Her survival came with a cruel contract: Her family's lives in exchange for her soul—forever. Victoria was reborn with terrifying supernatural power. But every ability demands a price bound by merciless rules: a constant need to 'recharge' through intimacy, governed by true emotion, unavoidable attachment, and destined heartbreak. She can never risk falling twice. As Victoria is dragged deeper into the shadows, she uncovers the truth of Dark Heaven, a twisted realm ruled by Kill Wish (Aethna Montaug)—an expelled Angel obsessed with replacing God Himself. Aethna hunts a divine artifact called the Body Shield, a weapon shattered into twenty-one pieces that promises immortality and absolute power. What Victoria doesn't know—until it’s too late—is that one of those pieces is hidden within her own body. Her soul is already sold, but the fate of every world now rests in her hands. Will her reluctant power save the worlds caught between Heaven and Hell, desire and betrayal?

Ilyra Noem was never meant to live in the shadows of power, but for years she kept an empire together without saying a word. As the wife of billionaire Ruvan Calderic, she worked without a title, power, or recognition, stopping disasters that no one could have seen coming. It was difficult to see how smart she was. No one has written down her sacrifices. Her access ended with her marriage. The Calderic Group starts to break apart in small but dangerous ways when Ilyra disappears. Contracts don't work. There are holes in oversight. People in charge pay attention. The man who once thought that power could replace loyalty now knows that he can't get back what he lost by using force. Ilyra doesn't come back to beg. She comes back as an independent expert who is untouchable, controlled, and ready. Questions shift from business to personal responsibilities, revealing their past and serving as evidence. Being quiet becomes a problem. Distance becomes unfeasible. Every attempt to conceal the truth demonstrated the deep connection between their lives. This story isn't about forgiving someone right away. It's the story of a woman who won't be forgotten just because she was loved and then left. It's also about power being regained and boundaries being enforced. Once people are held accountable, the focus changes from figuring out what went wrong to resolving the problem at its source. But who will have to manage the results?

One forbidden almost-kiss. One explosive court-side surrender that shatters the internet and ignites a global obsession. #JorLeo trends worldwide. Brands beg for their electric chemistry. Families rage to keep them apart.

They're meant to end in surrender. In a glittering world of wealth, power, and unrelenting passion, love isn't just dangerous—it's inevitable.

Aurora Waters was overwhelmed with despair when she faced the truth about her family. She had been born into a family of villains. Even worse, her family had an unhealthy obsession with faking their identities. They took “Fake it till you make it” so seriously that it usually ended with them getting killed! Her oldest brother pretended to be a CEO just to mess with the female lead, but that backfired when the male lead showed up and threw him out. Her second brother? He was an obsessive lover who pretended to be a wealthy second-generation heir—until the real heir ended his life. Her third sister? She faked being an heiress to manipulate the second male lead but ended up being killed by him. Her fourth sister? She faked an illness to attract the third male lead’s attention, only to die from a real one. Her mother? She put on a facade of being a kind and loving mom but ultimately met her end at the hands of the male lead. Her father? He pretended to be a powerful tycoon but lost his job and was drowned by the second male lead. And Aurora? She planned to impersonate the daughter of the richest man alive, but if things went the way they always did in her family, she’d probably meet her end by accidentally falling down the stairs. However, there was one glimmer of hope in this nightmare: she had a 100% rebate system that rewarded her for spending money on her family! [Beep! You bought an eraser worth 1 dollar for your eldest brother! 2 dollars have been credited to your bank account!] [Beep! You bought a candy worth 1 dollar for your second brother! 2 dollars have been credited to your bank account!] Aurora’s eyes sparkled as an idea took shape. She began spending on her family like crazy to rake in cash. [Beep! You gave a bun worth 20 dollars to your childhood crush! 100 dollars has been credited to your bank account!] Aurora: …! That’s walking money! What Aurora didn't expect, though, was that she would end up becoming one of the technology big shots herself, in the end.
