Vance Lance

Reivindicada Pelo Irmão Errado

Aurora Crestwood está apaixonada por seu melhor amigo Liam há dez anos. Dez anos sendo o ombro para ele chorar, sua ligação de madrugada, seu apoio emocional após cada término. Dez anos observando-o perseguir a mesma mulher tóxica que continua partindo seu coração. Quando Selena Beaumont anuncia seu noivado com outra pessoa, Aurora pensa que finalmente está livre. Mas Liam tem outros planos. Ele quer invadir o casamento, fazer uma última jogada desesperada pela mulher que nunca realmente o quis. E ele quer que Aurora o ajude a fazer isso. Contra seu bom senso, ela concorda. O que ela não espera é conhecer Kian Vance. O irmão afastado de Liam é tudo o que Liam não é — perigoso, direto e completamente desinteressado em jogar jogos. Ele também é amigo do noivo, o que o torna a maior ameaça ao plano de sabotagem. Mas quando Kian olha para Aurora, ele não vê a amiga confiável de Liam. Ele vê uma mulher que tem escondido seu verdadeiro eu por tempo demais. "Vou roubá-la de você", Kian diz ao irmão com fria certeza. Quando Kian propõe uma aposta — se o casamento desmoronar, Aurora pertencerá a ele — ela deveria ir embora. Ela deveria se concentrar em ajudar Liam a conquistar a mulher por quem ele é obcecado. Ela deveria continuar sendo a boa menina que sempre foi. Em vez disso, ela aperta a mão do próprio diabo. Agora Aurora está presa entre dois irmãos, um casamento que pode não acontecer e um homem perigoso que enxerga através de suas paredes cuidadosamente construídas. Kian promete mostrar a ela o que significa ser verdadeiramente desejada, mas seu interesse vem com um preço. Enquanto o fim de semana do casamento espirala em direção ao caos, Aurora deve decidir: continuará jogando pelo seguro ou finalmente abraçará o fogo que tem escondido?

The Strongest Demon Lord Reincarnated as a Commoner

In his past life, he was Azeros, the Demon Lord of Absolute Desolation. His very name silenced gods, and his power could unmake reality. But omnipotence was a gilded cage of crushing boredom. Seeking a flicker of genuine feeling, he orchestrated his own demise, reincarnating into the future as Leo Vance—a penniless commoner in a world that had all but forgotten his terrifying legacy. Now, he must navigate the halls of the prestigious Aethelgard Magic Academy, where noble arrogance, hidden dangers, and powerful beauties lie around every corner. His goal? To live a normal, unremarkable life. But when you possess the power to shatter mountains with a whisper, "normal" is a fantasy. Forced to reveal slivers of his true might to protect the few he begins to care for, Leo unwittingly starts to build a new legend. Powerful women—from tsundere princesses and genius mages to seductive professors and a war-hero instructor—find themselves inexplicably drawn to his quiet confidence and the terrifying, god-like aura he can't fully conceal. He only wanted peace, but his very existence is a declaration of war. As ancient evils stir and the world's most powerful figures begin to notice the "commoner" who defies all logic, Leo's quest for a simple life might just end with him on a throne once more, with a harem of devastatingly powerful women by his side. The Demon Lord is back, and this time, he's taking the Academy by storm.

Rejected by My Alpha Mate

"Ahh!" She writhed in a haze of moans, her body trembling with conflicting sensations. She loathed this man, yet every fiber of her being reacted to his touch. As his hands began to roam along her waist, she sucked in a sharp breath—the sudden pull of her back zipper sent a shiver down her spine. The metal slider halted at the small of her back, and as it opened, her upper back and waist were exposed, baring her skin to the cool air. "D-Don’t—mmph!" Her protest was smothered by the pillow as his fingers caressed her bare spine, leaving a trail of goosebumps in their wake. With a deep, angry growl, he whispered harshly in her ear, "I'll make you forget every touch, every kiss, every thing about him. From now on, when you're with another man, you'll only see me." Elara Vance was a withdrawn omega, often overlooked in the Silver Moon Pack for her quiet demeanor and unassuming appearance. But beneath her thick glasses lay a hidden crush on Rhys Knight, the pack's future Alpha and a notorious campus playboy. Rhys scoffed at mate bonds, treating relationships as disposable—until Elara's eighteenth birthday, when he publicly rejected her, turning her into the butt of every joke. Now, Elara returns transformed—glasses discarded, her hair styled sleek and confident—and Rhys can't take his eyes off her. What if her blood holds a sacred heritage chosen by the Moon Goddess? What if the "humiliation" was part of a larger scheme? And when Rhys, the alpha who once dismissed her, kneels before her new love interest, Liam Thorne, begging for a second chance, who will claim victory in this battle of pride and passion?

Rechazada por mi Compañero Alfa

"¡Ahh!" Se retorció en una bruma de gemidos, su cuerpo temblando con sensaciones contradictorias. Odiaba a este hombre, pero cada fibra de su ser reaccionaba a su tacto. Cuando sus manos comenzaron a recorrer su cintura, ella contuvo la respiración—el repentino tirón de la cremallera de su espalda le provocó un escalofrío. El deslizador metálico se detuvo en la parte baja de su espalda, y al abrirse, su espalda superior y cintura quedaron expuestas, dejando su piel al aire fresco. "N-No—¡mmph!" Su protesta fue ahogada por la almohada mientras los dedos de él acariciaban su columna desnuda, dejando un rastro de piel de gallina a su paso. Con un gruñido profundo y furioso, él susurró duramente en su oído: "Te haré olvidar cada caricia, cada beso, cada cosa sobre él. De ahora en adelante, cuando estés con otro hombre, solo me verás a mí". Elara Vance era una omega retraída, a menudo ignorada en la Manada de la Luna Plateada por su comportamiento tranquilo y apariencia discreta. Pero bajo sus gruesas gafas se escondía un amor secreto por Rhys Knight, el futuro Alfa de la manada y un notorio mujeriego del campus. Rhys se burlaba de los vínculos de pareja, tratando las relaciones como desechables—hasta el decimoctavo cumpleaños de Elara, cuando la rechazó públicamente, convirtiéndola en el blanco de todas las bromas. Ahora, Elara regresa transformada—sin gafas, con su cabello peinado elegante y confiado—y Rhys no puede quitarle los ojos de encima. ¿Y si su sangre contiene una herencia sagrada elegida por la Diosa Luna? ¿Y si la "humillación" fue parte de un plan mayor? Y cuando Rhys, el alfa que una vez la despreció, se arrodilla ante su nuevo interés amoroso, Liam Thorne, suplicando una segunda oportunidad, ¿quién saldrá victorioso en esta batalla de orgullo y pasión?

Der Unerwartete Außerirdische Teilhaber (The Unexpected Alien...)

This story starts about two decades after the Mars Human/Katzen colony was built. In orbit of Mars is a new ship construction satellite, and for resources the asteroids from the nearby Asteroid Belt are mined. The colony and satellite were built by CAW (Collation of Aligned Worlds) using some human labor. The colony contains a place where young humans are taught about technology, space travel, as well as the economics and politics of the CAW. Most of the instructors are Katzens, there are a few other member species as well. There are also a few human instructors, mostly teaching Human culture to the members of CAW. University to the Stars, as it was named about a decade ago, was created so that humans could be a part of CAW, as part of the arrangement, in exchange for knowledge, humans will give their support to CAW in manpower, as well as a sharing of sought after parts of culture. It was agreed it was better to have it off world, as Terran politics and religion did not mix well with pretty much anything. Many on Earth are not happy with this arrangement, but since they won't leave Terra, there's not much they can do about it. Those that are admitted into the program for labor or schooling are carefully screened, and agree to limited contact to those they leave behind. About eighty percent make it through screening. The Katzen have agreed to help those accepted get to Mars unmolested. There are families of CAW species that live on Mars as well, mostly Katzen. Mars does not have any political connection to Terra other than what was already mentioned. CAW does not get involved with internal conflicts on Terra except for humanitarian aid. In trade for aid, they must offer candidates for the help with construction, maintenance or their young for the university. Those candidates are also screened with about only ten percent that make it to Mars. Children as young as twelve are eligible for schooling. If a human family lives on Mars, they have basic schooling starting at age four available that is shared with the rest of the species living their. As it was the Katzen that found and later convinced the Humans to join, they have the strongest relationship with Humans. Some say this is because of all the cat videos on YouTube. It just so happened that Katzen's core system was on the edge of the galactic group next to Terra's. They have a somewhat new colony world on what we call Kapteyn b. It was inhabited a few decades before Terra was found. In fact, that is when Terran radio signals were discovered that led to the investigation of that world. That will be discussed in detail in the prequel, but needs some mention here. All member species except the humans have trade worlds with colonies on worlds or moons with trade stations orbiting them. The humans have or are in the process of building small trade stations in orbit around the other trade colonies. This is where all official trade takes place between them. There are some systems with nothing but mining outpost stations as they don't have any habitable planets or moons, and those systems are not worth any species colonizing. CAW technology is about a thousand years ahead of the humans. Everyone has some kind of personal communication, entertainment and computation device. Even the most basic compared to Terran tech is like comparing the IBM neuroscientist to an Altair 8800. Most people of the CAW have them embedded into their bodies such as their arm or appendage with holographic displays, or even in the head with micro displays on their corneas or visual sensory organ and audio feed and pickups in their ear canals or audio sensory organ powered by their own bodies. Some even have it wired directly into their brains receptors powered the same way. Some go old school and carry a device with them with batteries, a screen and audio drivers, these people are thought of to be eccentric.
