Landon Rhodes and I grew up together, both dreaming of becoming top chefs. But I knew he was the one with a palate kissed by God.

So when Rowan Stone, this street-rat punk, got her claws into him, I took the drinks, the smoke, the slaps for him. When he wanted to skip the National Young Chefs Competition to stay with her drunk ass, I dragged him back to the culinary lab.

He won the championship, got recruited by a three-star Michelin restaurant, graduated and made millions. I became the most invisible prep cook in his kitchen.

Until Rowan wrapped her car around a pole during one of her episodes, and he lured me into a basement.

"This is all your fault! If you'd minded your own damn business, she'd still be alive!"

His foot came down on my right hand. Bones cracking. My fingers ground to pulp.

All those 5 AM trips to the fish market for him. All those nights watching stock simmer for forty-eight hours straight. All the praise he soaked up at final practicals. My sacrifices, and all I got in return was his hatred.

"These worthless hands that can only cut vegetables deserve to rot in the ground with her."

The pain swallowed me whole.

When I wake up again, I'm back to that afternoon when he said he was going to the bar to find her.

This time, I won't stop him.

The floodwaters rushed into the basement, trapping my sister Isabella and me in the surging currents.

My brother, a former Navy SEAL, smashed through the window. Without a second of hesitation, he secured the rescue rope around Isabella.

"You're a good swimmer, figure your own way up! Isabella can't take the cold, I have to get her out first!"

He abandoned me and turned to hoist the rope, accidentally kicking away the only wooden crate keeping me afloat.

Once Isabella was pulled up, she reached down and slid the outer latch, deadlocking the only vent grate.

The floodwaters instantly swallowed me whole. Mud and debris violently surged into my mouth and nose. I was drowned alive.

The first day of school…actual school, and the jitters were kicking her tail. Though not in the literal sense.
For thirteen years, she’d been homeschooled at the behest of her mother. And now, after all of this time not being permitted around kids her age, unless she was serving them at her mother’s Inn and diner or the packhouse, she had to attend school with them; her...the outcast of Mystic Cove.
Taking deep breaths, Nel obsessively looked into the mirror, the girl’s nerves practically destroying her from the inside out. Though, it wasn’t like she wasn’t known throughout town anyway. Her rich brown skin, exuberant red hair, and verdant eyes made sure of that.


“Are you ready for your Ascension?”
The Ascension was what the wolves would call the ceremony of a young alpha coming, officially, into his own. It was usually carried out on one’s eighteenth birthday, and on this day, an inhuman and their beastly counterpart will officially become one soul. It is then that their senses are heightened and only grow from that point. It’s also on this day that one is awakened to their true mate’s scent. It was often that an ascent would find their mate on this day.
Colsin shrugged. “A little nervous, if I’m being honest. Slim pickings in our pack.”
“I want Sara to be my mate,” said Colsin. In truth, Colsin could almost say that he loved Sara, but he knew that it wasn’t a deep-down type of love. If she was in trouble, he’d do his best to get her out of it, but he couldn’t say that he’d move mountains to make sure that Sara was the priority, however.

But will Sara really become Colsin's mate? How will everything change when he meets Nel?

HE BOUGHT HER; SHE STOLE HIS SOUL

Anya Koslov was sold to settle her father's debt, becoming the Blood Tithe to the most powerful Bratva in Moscow. She is now a commodity of Nikolai Markov, a Pakhan so cold that even monsters feared his name.

“Please… I’ll do anything,” Anya whispered, her voice like a fragile thread in the crushing silence of the hall. On her knees, she was just one more offering in a centuries-old tradition, a debt paid in flesh and blood.

He circled her like a predator assessing his latest acquisition. His voice was winter itself, cold and absolute. “Your life is not yours to bargain with anymore.” His gloved hand caught her chin, forcing her to meet a gaze as stormy and merciless as his soul. “From this moment, little ghost, you belong to me.”

“She’s, my mate.”
“Nope, that’s not possible. No wolf has ever been mated to a blood witch,”
“Are you sure? She is really beautiful and if she wasn’t what she was I would have done her …” Before Max could say another word, Alaric had his fingers around his best friend’s throat and he was pushing him up against the wall growling.
He would never tell Max this, but just the thought of someone else touching her drove him mad!


Lena, a blood witch, is destined to fall in love with the man who killed her father and her entire race. Alaric is the king of the werewolves and can't believe that the moon goddess gave him a blood witch as a mate. Will she fall in love with him or will she try to destroy him and all of his people?

Alaric started this war because blood witches killed his parents and the entire supernatural world agreed that the blood witches had to be wiped out. But what should he do if his Mate is a blood witch?

But every shadow he commands brings him closer to losing his soul. In a world of blood oaths, ritual sacrifices, and royal conspiracies, how far will a broken man go for revenge?
A gripping Dark Epic Fantasy filled with raw betrayal, obsessive love, brutal power, and merciless revenge.

After her mother's mysterious suicide, Lila learns her stepfather's dark secret: he sold her mother's soul to vampires years ago. When their family faces financial ruin, Lila is given as payment to a mystery creditor known as the Blood King. But what seems like a death sentence becomes something far more complex when Lila learns she's not entirely human.

Born with a rare blood condition that makes her immune to vampire mind control, Lila learns she's the last descendant of the Crimson Witch, whose bloodline was cursed to keep a seal between worlds. Her rare blood doesn't just support vampires—it can either strengthen or destroy the ancient barrier keeping a primordial darkness at bay.

Trapped in a contract marriage with the enigmatic Blood King and caught between three powerful vampires who each claim a piece of her heart, Lila uncovers the horrifying truth: she's not the first of her bloodline to walk these halls—she's a reincarnation, doomed to repeat the same tragic love story throughout time. But this time, the Blood King isn't the only one keeping secrets. Lila holds a darkness of her own that could either save them all or consume everything in its path.

In the Ebon Citadel, freedom comes with a price, and some ties transcend death itself.

The five of us were dragged into a twisted nightmare.
The game rules were absolute: Kill the Boss. All members survive. Total escape.
Luckily, we each spawned into the game with a supernatural perk.
Relying on our powers and our bond, we spent six grueling hours tearing the massive, horrific beast apart.
All we had to do was step into the extraction portal to wake up in Oregon.
My friends were screaming in victory, already planning our celebration at Voodoo Doughnuts.
Instead, I was frozen. My heart wasn't racing with adrenaline anymore; it was cold. Absolute zero.
Because my real perk tracked the Boss status.
Floating in the center of my vision, cutting through the shadows, were two lines of text that only I could see:BOSS STATUS: ALIVE.DISGUISED. The monster wasn't dead. It was standing right here, wearing the face of one of my best friends!

When the debate is evenly matched, it's called discourse.
When you drag a socially anxious mess who can barely string together a coherent sentence onto the judgment platform of Ivy League elites—that's public execution.
My name is Scarlett Hayes. Ten minutes ago, if anyone had told me I'd be standing in a two-thousand-seat auditorium, pointing at Arthur—the nation's debate king—and shredding his logic to ribbons, I would've told them to see a shrink.
But right now, that sketchy pink energy shot I slammed down is surging through my bloodstream like molten adrenaline.
And that logic engine—the one that's been dead for twenty years, paralyzed by fear—just roared back to life.

Breathlessly my fingers slide down his body, finding the front of his jeans. I growl in frustration when I can’t get the button unhooked fast enough. His hands replace mine, finding the button of his pants between us, and makes quick work of the metal. Between one breath and the next I have his cock free. I drag my hand up the hard, silky length of him.

He snarls, his hand on my waist tightening almost painfully as he yanks me closer.

I need him desperately. I need to feel him inside me, hot and hard.

My soaked center meets his erection, and I take another long pull of his scent as I line us up. Somewhere in the haze I can’t help but think how huge he is. I’ve had sex before, and none of those other males even came close.

His dark gaze bores into mine. “You're sure?” His voice is rougher than I’ve ever heard it.

Instead of killing her, Damien makes Vivienne an impossible offer: marry him in a binding blood contract to help him keep control over his territory, or watch as everyone she loves becomes collateral damage in a brewing vampire civil war.
As their reluctant alliance evolves into dangerous attraction, Vivienne learns her mysterious blood disorder is actually proof of a heritage she never knew existed—one that makes her both invaluable and deadly to the vampire world.

"Stop talking like that," I said.
"Like what?" He tilted his head slightly, his voice velvet and threat rolled into one. His eyes, sharp and assessing, flicked down to my lips for the briefest second before finding my gaze again.
"You know exactly what I mean," I whispered.
He paused for a moment, his gaze steady, unflinching. Then, in a voice so low it felt like it touched every part of me, he said:
"Because I can't stop thinking about you, Eve."

At first, Ramil seemed dead set on giving Kacha a hard time.

It left Kacha convinced that Ramil must hate him.

“I've been wooing you, Cha.”
“Didn’t you notice?”

Wait… WHAT?!
Where did that come from?!

When Aunt Luna let the AC repairman in, I was five, fast asleep in my bedroom.
By the time I woke up, the police were already bagging evidence. Aunt Luna was wrapped in a blanket, bruised and broken, staring blankly at the wall.
She never smiled again. Instead, she collected scars on her arms.
Her ex-husband Ethan dropped everything to hold her, promising it wasn't her fault. But the PTSD won. Two years later, she swallowed a lethal dose of pills. Ethan followed her in death the very same night.
Every year, my mom would take me to their graves, crying as she whispered: If only I hadn't let your aunt call that repairman.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back in the summer I was five!
Aunt Luna walked out of the kitchen with her phone, fanning herself.
"Stella, I called a guy to fix the AC. Be a good girl and go take your nap."
The next second, the front doorbell rang.
"Hello! HandyPro AC repair."
My blood ran ice-cold!
I recognized that voice—Jake Dalton.
The rapist who destroyed both our families in my past life!

When Ironfang laid waste to her kingdom, Princess Aziza had only one option left to take: she went into hiding.
Through the magic she had been taught she would never have to use, Aziza stripped herself of her identity, of her position, of everything she knew and became an unknown omega with only two objectives: revenge, and survival.

Everyone in Vellum City knows the name Cole Ashford.
He built Ashford Industries from nothing a self-made billionaire who runs half the city's economy and donates to every charity gala on the calendar. The press loves him. The city trusts him. And nobody asks what he does after midnight.
Nobody except Mara Voss.

Mara is a crime journalist at the city's last independent newspaper, The Vellum Courier. She is not supposed to be investigating the string of strange deaths happening near the waterfront. Her editor pulled the story. Her sources keep going quiet. And three days ago, someone left a dead wolf on her doorstep with her press badge tucked under its paw.
She keeps investigating anyway.

When the evidence starts pointing to Ashford Industries and to Cole Ashford personally Mara does what any good journalist would do: she gets closer. What she does not expect is that he already knows she is coming. What she cannot prepare for is what she discovers when she finally gets close enough to see the truth.
He is not hiding a crime.
He is hiding a war.

And now that she knows, she is either the most dangerous person in the city or the most protected one.
Cole has not decided which yet. Neither has she.

She was supposed to survive University.

That was the plan. Get the scholarship. Keep her head down. Ignore the strange symbol she's drawn her entire life without knowing why. Pretend the nightmares, missing memories, and impossible feelings mean nothing.

Then one night at a club drenched in blood and silver lights, a monster looked at her like he already knew her.

And said: She's mine.

By morning, the world Lena thought she understood is gone. Vaelthorn University isn't a normal school. Creatures she thought belonged in myths walk the campus in daylight wearing expensive coats and dangerous smiles.

And Caelum Ashgrave, the terrifying man with mercury eyes, keeps appearing everywhere she turns. He says he needs her. He won't explain why.

The deeper Lena falls into Vaelthorn's hidden world, the more the questions multiply. Why does the pendant her mother gave her pulse like a warning? Why are her childhood symbols starting to mean something? Why does Caelum look at her like she's the answer to fifteen years of searching?

And who built the scholarship that brought her here in the first place?

He's been waiting eighteen years.

"Legend has it there is always a reason why souls meet. Maybe they found each other for reasons that weren't so different after all. They were two souls searching and found a home lost in each other. When souls find comfort in one another, separation is not possible. The reasons they are brought together are no accident... Maybe she needed someone to show her how to live and he needed someone to show him how to love."

One life in exchanged for many...
Now, seventeen years later, the Devil has come to collect on his favor...

Serenity Matthews was living her best life, surrounded by the people she loved most, until one day, everything went to Hell...Literally. Forced to spend the next six months of her life with the mysterious Zephyr on a dangerous mission to the Underworld, she learns that life isn't as black and white as it seems. Join Serenity on her treacherous journey of Love, Heartbreak, and the discovery of the millions of Grey areas inbetween.

In a world where art starves and blood sustains — what price would you pay just to survive?
Ivory Marwood has nothing left. Unpaid rent. Canvases nobody wants. A city that swallowed her whole without noticing.
Then the whispers find her.
Luné Devain. An underground auction where the wealthiest, darkest people bid on things that should never have a price tag.
She becomes one of them.
Marketed as a living artwork — a muse, a thing — Ivory stands beneath the lights while powerful men decide her worth.
One doesn't raise his paddle. He doesn't have to.
Bidder Number 24. Rage Lenoir.
A smile that feels like a warning. Eyes shifting from sapphire to amber. And something underneath older than wealth, older than power, older than anything she has a word for.
The last of something the supernatural world buried and prayed would never resurface. A vampire who was once a wolf. Two bloods. Two hungers. A predator even ancient councils refuse to name.
He just bought her.
The deal: three drops of blood a week. Every debt cleared. Every dream funded. A Blood Bound Contract sealed not in ink — but in crimson.
She should run. She signs instead.
Just business, she tells herself.
But nothing about Rage is simple. Not the amber burn when someone gets too close. Not the growl that sounds less like a threat and more like a claim.
In a world where immortality comes at the cost of humanity and love is the most dangerous indulgence of all — can a bond forged in blood, and sealed in something far more ancient, survive?
Or when the final drop falls, will the very agreement that brought them together be the thing that tears them apart?

"Mother,"
I opened my eyes. Everything around me is a haze. I gazed at the candlelight. It was wobbling from side to side. I noticed a woman seated near me, but everything was fuzzy.
I heard a voice unexpectedly. It was a woman's voice, echoing in my ear.
She was singing a low-toned lullaby.
"Mother, is it you?"
I heard my name, "Maxilin, I am here."
"Mother," I said with a tremble in my voice. I have no idea what's wrong with me.
I reached out cautiously to touch her, but she was out of my reach.
"Where are you, mother?"
"Oh, my beloved, try to hold me, come here, "
"Mother," Maxilin tried to stand up, but he was too weak. Maxi narrowed his eyes in an effort to see her face clearly, but he couldn't because everything was fuzzy. A woman in a white outfit moved in front of his sight.
Maxi took a few steps forward while still gripping the chair. "Mother, don't leave," he murmured, dizzily.
As he said, he saw in his fuzzy vision that someone had opened the door. "Mother, please don't leave me," Maxilin pleaded.
He let go of the chair's hold and dashed behind her. "Mother, don't leave me. Wait." In his frail state, he shouted and followed her.
"Huf".
In the middle of his path, he stopped. "Mother, you've left me here alone,"
"Maxi," he heard the voice unexpectedly. Maxi glanced up and looked around. It's all clear now, but he's stuck in the midst of the woods. He gazed up at the sky. A giant moon was staring at him, and a horde of deadly, voracious creatures were roaring around him.
"Son," someone touched his shoulder, he looked back, saw a terrifying creature standing in front of him.
"Hello, dear."

When seventeen-year-old Eleanor discovers her parents plan to sell her permanently to a vampire on her eighteenth birthday, fate intervenes—she's purchased by the ancient vampire Sebastian Astoria.
For ten years, Eleanor has been forced to provide blood to vampires, treated as nothing more than a commodity by parents who deemed her "evil" from birth. But under Sebastian's protection, everything changes. In his mansion, she learns she's a rare dhampir (half-vampire) with extraordinarily valuable blood, and as his servant, she finally experiences respect and kindness.
Boundaries between master and servant begin to blur. Her quick wit and compassion awaken something long dormant in the ancient vampire, while his protection offers her the first taste of safety she's ever known. But can a servant girl truly trust the promises of a creature who has lived for centuries?

Peace was never meant to last.

Astrid Monroe —the Last Tribid—has finally survived the battles that nearly tore her apart. With Jason and Killian by her side, her foster family safe, and her sister Nyx chasing love in the human world, life at Velmora Academy feels almost… normal.

But normal doesn’t belong to someone like her.
Whispers of rival academies rise, ancient forgotten gods stir from the shadows, and enemies old and new are eager to claim the power in her blood. And when a new student arrives—mysterious, bold, and far too interested in her—Astrid finds herself caught in a dangerous game of desire and betrayal that could shatter everything she’s built with her mates.
In a world where loyalty is tested, love is threatened, and darkness hungers for her soul, Astrid will discover that surviving once was only the beginning.
Because peace was just the calm before the blood and ruin.

Ever heard of the word forbidden, a situation were you have to stay in the shadows so you don't catch the wrong eyes.

That is what Sera was or as the elite vampires called her an ABOMINATION.

She was born to be executed.
Instead, she became the Blood King’s greatest weakness.

Sera Blackwood is a half-blood abomination in a vampire kingdom where her kind are slaughtered without mercy. For twelve years, she survives by staying invisible—until a single court ritual exposes her secret to the entire realm.

And binds her to its most dangerous ruler.

King Kael Draeven is cursed, ruthless… and the man who butchered Sera’s entire family. He should kill her on the spot.
Instead, he claims her as his own, sealing a blood bond neither of them can escape.

Now trapped in a court of lies, assassins, and forbidden desire, Sera must survive a king who is both her enemy and her fate. As a deadly prophecy awakens and enemies close in, the power sleeping in her blood begins to rise—power that could save the vampire realm…

Or burn it to the ground.

Because in Nocterra, loving the wrong king is a death sentence.

"Your kind belongs to a cell, shackled against a wall with no freedom!" he yelled at me before ordering his guards to shut me up in the darkest part of the cell, hijacking the little freedom and illumination I had.


How overjoyed I was when I thought I had found my mate, the one gifted to me by the moon goddess, the one to end my pain and suffering, the Blood Alpha, Alpha Kade. But I had no clue that he had other plans for me, to use me! to break me! to make me bend to his will!
Why would he want me as his Luna? An insignificant clumsy omega?
He was...The Big Bad Alpha.

In a kingdom where mana is the only currency of power, Ryn is a man born with nothing. He possesses neither the magic of the noble houses nor the physical vigor required of a knight. He is a shadow in a world of giants, surviving only by his razor-sharp intuition and strategic mind.

From the corrupted ruins of the old empire, Morgana the Eternal a necromancer who once hunted dragons to near extinction, has felt the return of the royal bloodline.
As Morgana unleashes his army of the undead to finish what he started, Ryn must lead a desperate alliance of exiled Princes, rogue geomancers, and suspicious Dwarves and other formidable allies to reclaim a throne that was never supposed to exist again.
