Dante Lagurara

In a world where beasts rarely crave their own gender, Blazar's disguise as a boy is both her shield and her greatest gamble. Her scent betrays her—an intoxicating lure that would send any beast-blooded king into a frenzy to claim her. The disguise makes them hesitate, their instincts confused by the male facade over the irresistible female scent beneath. Every breath risks her discovery. Every moment is a gamble. Born a nobody. Sold into slavery. Bought by a king. Raised as a weapon. Her orders are simple: infiltrate Royal Imperium Prestigia High, pose as noble boy Orion Spade from a broken line, and assassinate the most powerful king. Succeed, and she lives. Fail, and she dies. Prestigia is an academy where monsters are crowned—and innocents devoured. Ruled by the Havoc Five: Dante the werewolf supreme alpha, Kaelric the apex of humanity, Vesper the vampire overlord, Xeari the werecat king, and Ryuzaki the celestial kitsune. Each lethal in their own way. Thousands of nobles would kill to kneel at their feet. For most girls, this is paradise. For Blazar? A nightmare. Her defiance doesn't go unnoticed. She attracts the attention of all five. The kings circle her—some to protect, some to break her, others wanting more. She runs. She tries to deny. But the longer she resists, the more entangled she becomes. To survive, she must outwit them all while hiding her true gender, her slave mark, the deadly secret of her bloodline, and escape the king who owns her. Blazar Staray won't play their games. And she certainly doesn't kneel. But the real question is—can she resist the hunger they woke in her? °~Excerpt~° "I don't understand," she whispered, her voice shaking. "I haven't done anything. I don't know what's happening." Kaelric stepped forward, his expression cold and calculating. "That's exactly what someone using seduction magic would say." His ice-blue eyes bore into hers with such intensity that she felt like he could see straight through to her soul. "The question is, what kind of magic are you using, and who sent you here?" "I'm not using any magic!" Blazar protested, her voice rising with desperation. "I don't even know what you're talking about!" But even as she said the words, she could feel the weight of their stares on her. Something was definitely wrong, and somehow, she was at the center of it all. The one thing they all seemed to want but couldn't quite understand why.

It’s the age of superhumans! Genetic modifications, Cybernetic enhancements, magic enchantments- the choice is yours! For the right price, you can rise above the masses and gain power only ever seen in myths! For the right price! No matter how far humanity advances, power will always fall in the hands of the wealthy few. It was a truth Dante learned at a very young age and with it came a burning hatred for those who use power to oppress and dominate. The flames grew stronger once he found himself faced with the cruelty of those who rule from above. Left all alone in the world, robbed of everyone he cherished, Dante swore revenge on those who hurt him, but true power couldn’t be fought with hatred alone. In his search for a weapon that could help him take his revenge, Dante crosses paths with a certain Artifact, his fate taking a turn he could never have anticipated. =================================== For the months of May, June, and July, the first privilege tier (20 advanced chapters) will cost only 1 coin!

The city of Stockham, thirty miles north of London, was a hotspot for business activity. To those outside of the city, they only saw the legitimate importation and finance companies that posed as the forefront of the city's business sector, but those deep in the system knew that this was only a front. Behind the legitimate businesses and fake economic stability was a ruthless world of gangsters and mobs run by three families that had existed since the city was first founded: the Lucas, the Bellegrini, and the Romanov.

But Dante's life took a sudden turn when the boss of the Lucas family, George Lucas, died unexpectedly. And rather than passing on his immense fortune to his firstborn son, as was the tradition in the family, the boss passed it to Dante instead. Now, Dante was stuck in a world filled with enemies both outside and inside the family, and he would have to use all of his abilities to protect the lives of his family members while also trying his best to grow the Lucas family to the strength they once possessed.

[Novel synopsis]; In a world scarred by the rise of biomechanical warfare and the shadow of an enigmatic syndicate known only as Ragnarok, one girl stands at the edge of revolution. April, a seemingly ordinary 20-year-old living in the fractured remnants of a future society, hides a past drenched in trauma and secrets. Blinded and deafened during a harrowing attempt to escape her abusive father—a man who destroyed her family—April is forced into a life of silence and darkness. But everything changes after an experimental surgery implants nanotech into her skull, technology far beyond anything humanity should possess. Now, April sees without eyes and hears through a new kind of sense. The nanotech has awakened a dormant potential in her—a coded sigil etched behind her head shaped like an angelic wing and a spear. It’s not just a symbol. It’s her Gear, a powerful combat system linked to ancient animalistic and Zodiac powers—each wielder embodying a creature of legend. Hers? A spear-born sigil capable of shattering mechs and bending digital space. When she joins a covert organization aiming to dismantle Ragnarok, April discovers she’s not alone. Other Gear users fight beside her: Jax, the brilliant strategist; Saya, the deadly calm blade; Kai, a hawk-gear user with a fire-forged past; Dante, the powerhouse with unmatched resilience; Juno, the data genius cloaked in mischief; and the Leader, a figure shrouded in mystery who knows more about April’s past than he lets on. As April navigates brutal missions and high school halls alike—where rivals like Tessa Lane threaten her sanity with cruel mind games—she must balance normalcy and the battlefield. Every encounter pushes her closer to the truth: about her powers, her family, and Ragnarok’s true purpose. But none are more telling than her growing connection with Astra, a lone Gear user with platinum hair and a piercing gaze. Astra has the power, the knowledge, and a burning desire for vengeance. April needs her—but Astra isn’t so easily convinced to join a cause she doesn’t trust. The deeper April digs, the more the lines blur between ally and enemy. With Ragnarok’s agents—like the cold and calculating River Hoss—looming on the horizon, April must decide who she’s willing to trust, who she’s ready to fight, and how far she’ll go to protect what little she has left. The world doesn’t need a hero. It needs a weapon. And it just found one.

Un crimen atroz. Un poema maldito. Un secreto que nunca debió salir a la luz.

I was supposed to kill him. Instead, I stripped for him. Dante Moretti—feared mafia king, owner of Inferno, and the devil they all bow to—was my target. Cold, brutal, untouchable. I was the Bratva's weapon. Sent undercover to infiltrate his empire, seduce him, and bring him down from the inside. But I didn’t expect him to watch me like he owned me. Didn’t expect him to tie a diamond collar around my neck. And I definitely didn’t expect to fall into his bed… and deeper into his world. Now, I'm no longer just a spy. I'm his obsession. His sinner in lace. And if the truth comes out, he’ll do one of two things: Kill me. Or keep me forever. But the deeper I fall, the more I wonder— Am I still undercover? Or have I become the devil’s favorite sin?

And if he can take one Gift... can he take more? But power never comes without a price. In the shadows lurks a secret organization tasked with monitoring the Gifted — they've already detected traces of something impossible. Something dangerous. If they learn what Dante can do, he won’t just be feared — he’ll be hunted. Now, he faces a choice: Run. Hide. Survive. Or rise. Fight. Become something more. But with every Gift he takes, one question grows louder in his mind: > Is he still Dante Vazquez— Or is he becoming something else entirely?

Dante Moretti was born to rule; ruthless, calculating, and destined to inherit the empire his father built from blood and silence. He’s kept his emotions buried and enemies buried deeper. But when a deal goes wrong and his path crosses with Elena DeLuca, daughter of the man his family swore to destroy, everything changes. Elena is fiery, unpredictable, and dangerous in all the wrong ways. She shouldn't mean anything to him. But the more he pushes her away, the more she invades his thoughts, and his control. In a world where betrayal is currency and love is weakness, Dante must choose: loyalty to the life that raised him, or the woman who might destroy it. He owns the city. But she might own his soul.

"Et si ton nom n'était qu'un numéro ? Et si ton existence elle-même n'était qu'une erreur à corriger ?" Mortuus ouvre les yeux dans un monde qu’il ne reconnaît pas, guidé par des souvenirs brisés et à la recherche de réponse. Autour de lui, des jeunes aussi perdus que lui. Tous marqués par une chose étrange : l’absence. Sans repères, sans but, ils avancent — parfois ensemble, parfois seuls — dans un monde en ruine, à la recherche d’un sens, d’un passé, ou simplement d’un futur possible. Mais plus Mortuus s’approche de la vérité, plus elle semble vouloir l’écraser. Entre alliances fragiles, figures masquées, et silences trop lourds, une question devient obsédante : Peut-on défier ce qu’on est, quand on ne sait même pas qui on est ? Est-il un sauveur… ou une bombe à retardement ? Le dernier requiem approche.
