Ryker Hale’s sister died during an unauthorized neural enhancement trial. Three years passed before he uncovered the lab, the records, and what really happened.
And then, a countdown: 100 days until dimensional rifts rip through Earth, triggering the collapse of civilization.
It sounded absurd, until he tested the prediction. Three events, each deemed impossible, unfolded exactly as forecasted. The world had 100 days left, and he was the only one who knew.
One dose of the enhancement remained, the same experimental technology that killed Mira. It came with an 87% fatality rate. Two paths lay ahead: face extinction in three months with no power, or risk transformation. He chose the later.
Now, Ryker sees disasters before they happen. He calculates odds with precision, and detects order in apparent chaos. A timer is permanently etched into his sight: 99 DAYS, 18 HOURS, 14 MINUTES
His first decision: stay silent. No warnings. His second: survive at any cost. Let everyone else face the fire. But then very choice rescues one person and every choice dooms another.
The dimensional breaches have begun, and Ryker begins to understand: the real danger isn’t the coming apocalypse.
It’s him. The more intelligent he becomes, the more humanity slips away. In 100 days, the world ends. But the true horror is who or what he will become by then.

Gradually, the hate she feels towards her manipulative husband turned into love, leading to something deeper and complicated.

Love is timeless, but she only has 100 days to make him fall in love with her as part of the deal.

Would she succeed? Or would it only bring her to the hell of lust?

And some… will make you wish you never opened the book.

Velvet Heat is where you come to lose yourself.
But you’ll never leave the same.

Only sinners.
No safe words. Only consequences.
And no promises of love..just obsession, power, hunger… and release.

Be my slave for 100 nights, and I'll turn you into a lycan so you can be with your lycan lover for as long as you both shall live.


Matilda “Tilly” Parker’s life falls apart when her lycan boyfriend, Xavier Graves, leaves her with nothing but a vague “trust me.”
Human, heartbroken, and fueled by cheap wine and spite, she crosses paths with Cillian Ravenscroft, the vampire CEO of Valmont International. A century-old predator with ice-blue eyes and a smile that could tempt a saint.
Cillian is too smooth, too handsome, too everything—all sharp jaw, piercing gaze, and a smug charm that makes Tilly’s skin crawl and her heart race in ways she refuses to admit.
Cillian offers her a wild solution: become a lycan herself.
And he’s willing to make it happen—for a price. One hundred nights as his personal “slave.”
But she’s no helpless damsel. Scrappy, impulsive, and armed with a mouth that won’t quit, Tilly’s ready to claw her way through this twisted agreement. Yet as the nights slip by, the line between survival and seduction blurs—and the price of becoming a lycan might be far greater than just her heart.
Will Tilly fight her way back to Xavier—or surrender to the vampire who owns her nights?
One hundred nights. One impossible choice. And a hunger neither of them expected.

"I have no sexual experience, I'm a virgin."

"I want you to be my first time."

Will love conquer all when their relationship was exposed?

Olivia, who had been in a deep slumber for a thousand years, was awakened and embarked on a journey to uncover her true identity.

The vampire ancestors were so frightened that they fled away, exclaiming, “This terrifying woman is still alive! We can’t provoke her!”
The monster hunters pleaded to Olivia, “Please take in this thousand-year-old monster!”
The priests also begged Olivia, “We are all your descendants. You must revive our career!”
Olivia gave a cold smile. But how did she become a vampire?

On his deathbed, my husband Marcus confessed he'd swapped our baby with his mistress Chloe's seventeen years ago. Staring at his tearful, repentant face, I barely held back a laugh—I'd uncovered this secret sixteen years prior.

Now, he’s back in his city, not as the forgotten young master, but as the Grim Reaper himself.

The woman he vowed to marry has spent ten years waiting for him, enduring humiliation to protect her family. Saving her is just the beginning. As Jiang Che crushes one enemy after another, a one-billion-dollar bounty on his head draws mercenaries from every corner of the globe to his doorstep.

I made 17 calls for help. My sister answered every one—and hung up.

For 48 hours, I lay dying in Pine Ridge Forest, texting desperate pleas to my family. They thought I ran away. The truth? My sister deleted every message while I begged for my life.

Three months dead. Zero funeral. My family didn't even notice I was gone.

Now the police have recovered my phone. Every deleted text. Every ignored call. Every lie my sister told to cover up what she did.

"Please. I can't feel my legs. I'm sorry I exist. Just don't let me die here."

They wanted me invisible. I gave them what they wanted.

Now they'll spend the rest of their lives wishing they'd answered when I called.

“I’ll die in ten days without my second chance mate…just claim me, Asher… before it’s too late.” I pleaded.

“If I do, I’ll never love you again. That's worse than you dying…”

Banished. Cursed. Unclaimed.

Phina thought being chosen as a mate by a powerful Alpha would save her. Instead, she was used, betrayed, and thrown to the wolves—literally. Now cursed to die unless she's claimed within ten days, she's dragged before the one wolf feared by all: Asher, the ruthless Rogue Alpha King.

When their eyes meet, sparks fly. One word seals their fate: “Mate.”

But Asher is cursed too—one night with any woman, and he loses all ability to love her. He fights the pull. She begs for survival. Every moment burns with forbidden heat…
Until desire wins.

Will claiming her break the curse—or destroy them both?

I was sobbing on the floor of my apartment, terrified after surviving a monster attack, but my boyfriend just yawned into the phone and told me to take a Benadryl. "People fight in the city constantly, Lila. Stop being dramatic," Ezra sighed, annoyed that I'd woken him up. He hung up on me. I sat there in the dark, clutching my knees, realizing the man I loved thought I was crazy. But the 500-year-old Fae Prince who ruled my law firm didn't think I was crazy. He knew exactly what I was.

Alexander Sterling—my cold, terrifying, billionaire boss—had just slaughtered a nightmare creature in an alleyway to protect me. When his memory-wiping magic failed against my skin, he didn't dismiss me. He cornered me. He touched the crescent birthmark behind my ear, his eyes widening in ancient recognition. "Your life as you knew it ended the moment you saw me tonight," his voice was a lethal purr.

The next day, while my toxic boyfriend was lecturing me about professionalism, Alexander sent a single command: Pack your bags. You're moving into my building. I had no choice. The Fae council wanted me dead because my bloodline could destroy the barrier between worlds. But Alexander claimed me instead. He sent a talking stone gargoyle to my fire escape to watch over me, and when Ezra tried to gaslight me again, the gargoyle nearly ripped his head off.

When Alexander's black luxury car pulled up to my shitty apartment, I stepped inside. He touched my skin, peeling back the magical glamour, revealing a breathtaking, ethereal palace hidden in the middle of New York. "Welcome to the Fae domain, little Anchor," he whispered, his massive wings unfolding behind him. "You don't need that pathetic human boy anymore. You're mine to train now."

I have recurring dreams about a mysterious man who watches over me as I sleep. But I know he can’t be real—at least, that’s what I thought until today.

I’ve spent my life running with my mother. She always said we couldn’t stay in one place for more than six months. Whenever I asked why, she never gave me an answer.

On my 18th birthday, I decided to apply to university. I thought it was a good way to start adulthood. I should’ve listened to my mother.

The consequence of disobeying her came that same day. The reason we’ve been running all these years was to escape my sadistic, mafia father. His first words to me were: “You showed up at the perfect age to get married. Go get ready to meet your fiancé.”

I had to behave—for the sake of my mother’s safety.

My fiancé was old enough to be my grandfather and looked at me like I was his favorite dessert. But he wasn’t the one who caught my attention. His son did.

Standing beside the man I was promised to… was the man from my dreams, in the flesh—dangerous, tempting, and very real.

All I want now is to find a way to escape, but now that I know he exists, I realize I won’t get very far.

“Sir, the new student got into trouble in class ! They asked you to come !”

I pulled a long face while my Lycan gritted out in my mind.

“That’s our mate, punk !”


Ever had the shock of your life that the man you hate the most on the first day of college is your foxy hot, male professor and surprise, surprise, surprise- your roommate too ?!

Add to it that he does NOT belong to the human world !

Amidst bitter pasts and complicated relationships is the added fear of the Dark Overlord who is hell bent on destroying the entire supernatural world as well as the human world.

Will the roommates get their act together and finally be one with one another ? Will human laws allow the student-teacher relationship to bloom into a satisfying romance ? Will the last surviving Lycan in the human world be able to avenge the death of its pure blood Lycan pack ? And finally will the Lycan race survive at all?

Zoe was never meant to obey. Born to power and raised in chaos, she and her notorious Shadow Gang ruled Diamond Ville with pranks, secrets, and strength. But one explosive mistake lands them in Asheville Academy—a brutal school for the supernatural elite where silver fences bite and trust is a liability.

When Zoe discovers she’s fated to five powerful, unpredictable mates—each from rival packs—the stakes become deadly. Love was never part of the plan. Neither was betrayal.

Now the Shadow Gang must survive training rooms that break bones, enemies who play nice with knives, and a prophecy that could end everything.
Zoe’s heart might not survive five fates. But the world won’t survive what happens if she rejects them.

Witty, wild, and addictive—every encounter with the Alphas is where danger kisses destiny.

"Did you sleep well, little girl?" he asks.
"Who are you? Why am I here?" Feeling a sudden pang of fear, I add, "... Where’s my mate?"
"You came running and attacked me at night, and since you seemed injured and couldn't control your wolf-shape, I defended myself until I managed to knock you out without causing further harm. And you gave me a nice scratch in the process, worth mentioning," he continues, "And was it your mate who attacked you?"
Apprehensively, I repeat the head nod.
He lets out a grunt. "You had bad luck in choosing your mate."
"I didn't choose him. The moon Goddness picked him for me. Don't you see I'm cursed? I'm the child of two Lycans." It feels like the world's weight has crashed down on my shoulders. "Because of it, I've lived as an outcast in Agares my whole life."
Something changes in his expression. His eyes take on a feral gleam. "Agares?"
"Yes."
He snarls the words without looking at me. "That explains a lot...I’m Darius Montarac, Lycan King of Norden, and the Moon Goddess long ago decreed that every she-wolf born from two Lycans should be brought to my kingdom, for one of them would be my Luna."

Alina is a cursed she-wolf who can transform into a large wolf, triggered only by rage and pain.
On her bonding ceremony, her human mate tried to kill her, but she lost control and killed him. When she regained consciousness, she found herself naked, covered only by a man's shirt. This shirt belonged to a lycan who has been in search of his Luna.
As their paths collide, Alina must face a chilling question: is he her second chance… or the final piece in a prophecy that could destroy her?

“…do anything rather than marry without affection.” —Pride and Prejudice   During the upheaval of the Great Depression, Elizabeth Bennet’s life is torn asunder. Her family’s relocation from the bustle of the big city to a quiet family farm has changed her future, and now, she must build a new life in rural Meryton, Kentucky.   William Darcy suffered family turmoil of his own, but he has settled into a peaceful life at Pemberley, the largest farm in the county. Single, rich, and seemingly content, he remains aloof—immune to any woman’s charms.   Until Elizabeth Bennet moves to town.   As Darcy begins to yearn for something he knows is missing, Elizabeth’s circumstances become more dire. Can the two put aside their pride and prejudices long enough to find their way to each other?   1932, Karen M Cox’s award-winning debut novel, is a matchless variation on Jane Austen’s classic tale.

In a world where every living being has a secret name, Kate was born with the ability to see through the magical veil that separates human and fae worlds. Not only that, her body produces too much magic, making her a target for all the creatures who want to take advantage of it. Her family always had problems with this, and they didn't think twice about selling her to the fae's great leader, the Pale King, who showed up on their doorstep and bought her and her younger sister.

For some time, Kate was used as a source of magic for the Pale King, until one day she managed to escape, alone, cursing herself for not being able to bring her sister with her. Pursued during her escape, what she didn't expect was to be saved by a great black dragon who has no wings. He fought off her pursuers and let her go.

Years later, Kate never forgot her sister or her savior. Now she acts as a mercenary, and she wants to find ways to confront the Pale King and get her sister back, even though she fears the girl won't even remember her. But she heard that a great black, wingless dragon will be put up for sale at an auction where magical creatures can be bought with their secret names written on a document of ownership.

Could he be the same dragon who saved her before? Would he help her again? She doesn't know the answers to these questions, but at this point, Kate is willing to obtain him, even if by alternative ways.
