Aisha's life is a stark portrait of resilience forged in the crucible of relentless adversity. A single mother of five sons, each a living testament to a man who abandoned her, she endures the ceaseless, corrosive scorn of her close-knit community. Branded a "loose woman," her reputation precedes her, isolating her in a suffocating atmosphere of judgment. Her days are punctuated not only by the whispered disapproval of her neighbors, but also by the daily struggle to provide for her children, often with meager resources. Her reflection in a cracked mirror, a constant reminder of her shattered past and the seemingly insurmountable challenges of her present, becomes a symbol of her fragmented identity. Yet, beneath the crushing weight of despair, Aisha's fierce, unwavering love for her sons acts as a defiant shield. This love fuels her quiet rebellion against the societal forces that seek to break her spirit, driving her to find strength where none seems to exist. The story delves into the profound impact of societal judgment, particularly on women, exploring the ways in which it can isolate and dehumanize. It also illuminates the indomitable strength of female resilience, highlighting the power of maternal love to transcend even the most harrowing circumstances, and ultimately, to pave a path toward a fragile, hard-won hope. Beyond the societal scorn, her life is a constant battle against poverty. Each sunrise brings the daunting task of stretching meager resources to feed and clothe her five sons. Market days become a gauntlet of haggling and bartering, where every coin is a hard-won victory. Her hands, calloused and worn, tell the story of countless hours spent washing clothes, mending garments, and tending to the small, stubborn patch of land that provides a meager supplement to their diet. The boys, ranging in age from toddler to teenager, are both her burden and her salvation. They are a constant source of worry, yet their laughter and innocent affection provide the only respite from the crushing weight of her circumstances. This daily struggle, this relentless fight for survival, becomes another layer of her resilience, a testament to her unwavering determination to protect her children.

After being betrayed by her family, Bai Meiyue found herself struggling in the flourishing age where zombies and mutant animals ruled. And that too with a big belly! Though people called her crazy for being stubborn, Bai Meiyue didn’t regret keeping the fruit of her one-night stand. What she regretted was not protecting her child and trusting those whom she should have killed at the very chance that was handed to her. In the eleventh year, Bai Meiyue lost her child and died while taking revenge on those who took her son away. However, just when Bai Meiyue thought it was the end, she returned two months before the beginning of the doomsday. Carrying the grudge of two lifetimes, she swore to make life living hell for those who harmed her and her son. With the heavens blessing her with a barter system, Bai Meiyue was intent on giving her child everything that he deserved. But why was the child’s father chasing after her? Hello? We only shared a bed for a night. So why was he clinging to her? Her child’s father: From the best medicine to education, you have given our child everything, Meiyue. But what about a father?

Title: The Book of Whispers Genre: Supernatural Horror / Dark Fantasy Tone: Raw, Atmospheric, Unnerving Synopsis: Lena Carter never wanted the book. Her estranged grandfather’s final package—a worn leather-bound volume titled The Book of Whispers—came with one instruction: "Burn it. Do not open it." She ignored him. From the moment she flipped it open, everything changed. The pages held death premonitions… in her handwriting. And when her coworker Jenna died exactly as described, Lena's world fractured. The book isn’t dead paper. It’s aware. And it’s chosen her to be its new Keeper. Now pursued by the skeletal figure called the Last Witness, Lena races to uncover the book’s dark lineage—tracing back to a 12th-century monk who sealed away a shadow deity within its pages. Every previous Keeper gave in, bartering lives to delay their own demise. Lena won’t surrender that easily—until the book begins warping the world around her. - People vanish or return... wrong. - Mirrors whisper secrets. - Her name appears in the margins—next to “deceased.” Her sole companion? Mira, an ex-Keeper who’s seen too much and still bears the scars. Together, they run to Romania, back to where it all began. But the more Lena uncovers, the darker the truth becomes: The curse didn’t start with the book. It runs through her veins. And the shadow god? It’s been waiting for her. --- Why This Will Haunt You: - Gothic Overtones: Forgotten monasteries, dripping walls, and a monster that lives in silence and glass. - Mind Games: Memory, identity, and time twist until Lena no longer knows who she is. - Hard Choices: Would you doom a stranger—or yourself—to live another day? - Unpredictable Turns: Just when the rules feel clear, the book turns them inside out. Perfect for readers who loved: The Library at Mount Char, House of Leaves, and Netflix’s “The Haunting of Hill House.” --- Status: Ongoing (100+ chapters planned) Updates: 14 chapters weekly Crack the cover if you dare… but don’t whisper its name. It hears everything. ---

In the fractured realm of **Everburn Labyrinth**, where ash falls like snow and forgotten gods whisper through cursed bloodlines, **Seryn Octavius**—the last heir of the soul-devouring **Emberdirge Dynasty**—barters memories for power. His family’s ancestral curse binds him to a grim truth: every drop of alchemical elixir he brews erases a fragment of his past. But when his exiled mentor, **Lady Eluinora**, is exposed as a traitor who sold his clan to the God of Oblivion, Seryn’s quest for vengeance unravels a millennia-old conspiracy: the very curses that cripple the ancient dynasties are shards of a slain primordial deity, and *he* is the crucible to resurrect it. To survive, Seryn must master the forbidden **Ashborne Alchemy**, turning his family’s funeral rites into weapons—distilling grief into corrosive mists, forging vows into chainblades, and weaponizing his own decaying soul. Allies become liabilities: a mechanized orc warrior whose heart ticks toward self-destruction, a moon-cursed assassin hunting her reflection, and Eluinora herself, whose lies may hold the only key to salvation. As the **Clockwork Throne** awakronsume cities into slag and the **Thousand-Eyed Abyss** hungers for his lineage, Seryn faces an impossible choice: embrace the erosion of his humanity to become the realm’s destroyer, or shatter the alchemical laws of the universe—and with them, every soul he vowed to protect

Deep beyond the village edge lies a forest that breathes secrets and devours silence. The locals call it the Hush — a living wilderness where missing children echo as whispers in the wind. When Rafi, a runaway haunted by family betrayal, stumbles into the hush’s grasp, he discovers he is not alone. There, he meets the braid girl — a fierce, half-wild survivor who knows how to barter with roots and shadows. Together, they forge an uneasy pact to navigate the forest’s cruel mind games, flesh-twisting guardians, and the unseen force that feeds on fear and memory. But the hush is hungry for more than bodies. It wants stories, secrets, and the fragile hearts that carry them. Each step deeper is a step closer to losing themselves — or becoming something not quite human at all. Children of the Hush: Season 1 is a chilling, mythic dark fantasy about lost youth, survival, and the primal terror that lives just beyond the last safe light. If you stray too far, remember: not all whispers are kind.

In a world where survival is a privilege, love becomes the deadliest game. Three years ago, the skies shattered and fire rained from above. Cities fell, and the powerful hoarded what remained. In the chaos, Rina lost everything—her family, her name, her future. But she didn’t die. She learned to fight. To endure. To disappear. Now, she's known only as a shadow among ruins, bartering blades for secrets and keeping her heart as guarded as her back. That is, until he shows up. Kael, the highborn heir to a fortress city, has been hunting for someone. Someone like her. But the moment their paths cross, Rina realizes she’s not being recruited—she’s being hunted. Because she knows something Kael was never meant to uncover. Something dangerous enough to burn what's left of the world. Trust is a luxury neither of them can afford. But when enemies surround them and old betrayals resurface, survival might not be enough anymore. In a world built on lies, can two broken souls find truth in each other—or will they be each other's undoing?

Marcella Valemont was a villainess wrapped in silk and thorns. The alluring, selfish daughter of the High Priest, she was forced into a cold marriage with the Black-bellied Duke Berith Montclair. She longed for power and would stop at nothing to claim the crown, even if it meant seducing the incorruptible Crown Prince Lucian and clawing her way to the throne into becoming the Queen. Until it all burned. Her ruthless schemes led to betrayal, rebellion, and ruin-- an empire on its knees, a virtuous king destroyed, and a rebellion led by the man she discarded. Desperate and full of regret, she barters her life with the Duke to save Lucian. In an interesting turn of events, Marcella gets to go back in time to fix her wrongs, save the man who was ruined because of her and hopefully stop the bloodthirsty rebel Duke Berith. She finds herself reborn as her 18-year-old self with a chance for a do-over and vows to do better this time. But the past does not forget. Nor does the devil in her husband’s skin. Secrets long buried begin to surface, and Marcella discovers that her former husband is far more than he seems—a man cloaked in darkness, harboring a purpose that threatens everything she holds dear. They say second chances come with thorns and to fix the past, she must trust the devil who destroyed it.

From the bustling financial city of Shenzhen, Lin Yi, a genius of economics who deeply understands money—from old bartering, the shine of gold, to the weakness of fiat currency—wakes up in the body of a minor villainess in a Korean otome novel with a European Duke/Duchess setting. Her new name is Lady Madea Volkov. In this world of magic swords and mana, where power is tracked by a simple system (though Madea doesn't get quests and just "stacks" levels), Lin Yi's huge goals remain: absolute wealth, immortality, eternal youth, and endless power. She sees this new world as a massive chessboard. With a brain that can break down how even the smartest CEOs work and a tongue as sharp as a CIA agent's for persuasion, she'll dig into every plot detail of the novel, every financial trick, and every secret of power. What's more, she'll exploit the system itself, taking 90% of the experience points from every subordinate, monster killed, and quest completed by others, to speed up her own rise. However, her plan gets complicated when she meets the novel's original heroine, Lady Elara Roseline, who has also been transmigrated by Kang Minji. This starts a thrilling game of financial cat-and-mouse and complex plots that shake the very foundations of this new world. Lin Yi isn't just a jealous villainess; she is the Empress of Fiat, ready to rewrite destiny with a golden pen.

Along the way, he’ll forge bonds with unlikely allies, delve into cursed forests, barter with mad alchemists—and face horrors that twist the mind and break the body.

In the depths of darkness, a figure known only as "Kyrios" reigns supreme. With eyes that burn like embers from the underworld, she stalks her prey – those who've made pacts with the devil, trading their souls for power, wealth, and influence. Her game is a gambit of shadows, where the stakes are eternal. With each move, she weaves a web of darkness, drawing her victims closer to the abyss. Her powers are a whispered legend: the ability to manipulate the very fabric of fate, to bend reality to her will, and to summon the whispers of the damned. As The Kyrios closes in on her targets, the air thickens with malevolent intent. Her presence is a cold wind that freezes the blood, her touch a whispered promise of damnation. Those who've bartered their souls tremble at the mention of her name, for they know they're playing a game they cannot win. But The Kyrios true purpose remains shrouded in mystery. Is she a servant of the devil,is she the devil herself, or a force unto herself? One thing is certain: when she sets her sights on a soul, that soul is doomed. The game is on. The stakes are eternal. The Kyrios awaits.

On this lawless island, the rules of civilization have burned away with the wreckage. Men trade humanity for power—their morality eroding faster than the tide washes away footprints. Women barter what society once valued most, learning too late that beauty holds no currency in the wild. But survival demands more. More than stolen food. More than whispered alliances. More than flesh traded for fleeting protection. Now we fight nature's indifference. The jungle's creeping hunger. The convict who stalks us like prey. Each sunrise brings fresh betrayals written in blood on the sand. What began as a tragedy of metal and flame has become something far darker—a war without rules, where the only victory is seeing tomorrow.

Set against the tumultuous backdrop of China's Republican Era (1912-1949), this novel chronicles the uncanny adventures of Li Beidou, a feng shui master born under a portentous celestial alignment. His birth coincided with the winter solstice—a liminal moment of cosmic transition between Yin and Yang—marked by an omen: every black dog in the village went mad, hurling themselves to their deaths beneath the ancient huai tree at the village entrance. Hailing from a lineage of funeral attire shopkeepers who clothed the dead, Beidou's destiny shifted during a feverish delirium when he encountered the Yin-Inquiring Matriarch, a spectral figure who inducted him into the shadowed arts bridging the mortal realm and the afterlife. The narrative weaves through encounters with Yin Arts—esoteric rituals to commune with spirits—and the perilous Nine Yin Techniques, a forbidden corpus of necromantic lore. Each chapter unravels bizarre phenomena: sentient funeral paper effigies, geomantic curses haunting ancestral tombs, and markets where the dead barter with spirit coins. Blending historical verisimilitude with supernatural intrigue, the story illuminates the clandestine world of Yin-Yang practitioners—custodians of cosmic balance—through Beidou's trials. From exorcising poltergeists in Shanghai's jazz-age parlors to decoding cryptic feng shui patterns in war-torn villages, his journey reveals how the veil between worlds grows thin in times of human strife.

Kira grew up knowing that kindness could get you killed. Raised in the slums of a broken world, she survived by learning how to stitch wounds with shaky hands and barter medicine for scraps. But when the mutation wave swept through humanity, gifting some with godlike powers, Kira awakened the rarest ability of all—healing. Now, she’s the most valuable prize in a world ruled by violence and desperation. The government wants to lock her away, warlords want to claim her, and the desperate will do anything to possess her touch. But Kira isn’t some fragile flower to be plucked—she’s all thorns. On the run and fighting to stay free, Kira finds herself tangled with four dangerous men: • Cain, the stone-faced protector who kills without hesitation. • Ash, the wild rogue whose grin hides teeth sharper than any beast. • Lucian, the arrogant heir who believes everything—including Kira—has a price. • Alaric, the quiet outcast who sees the pain she hides beneath her fire. They all want something from her—protection, power, or maybe something more. But in this brutal world, desire can be as dangerous as a knife to the throat. And the only person Kira truly trusts… is herself. Because while her touch may heal, her heart is wrapped in thorns—and anyone who tries to claim her might just bleed for it.

Two broken souls. One prophecy. One sacrifice. Ivory fate was prophesied from she was born, she was to be sacrificed. To her, that's the worst kind of fate anyone can get bound to. But not all sacrifices are meant to be. Just as all souls are not to be barter for. Definitely not the one tied to Vald, who is more destructive than helpful. Ps.

No woman marries for money; they are all clever enough, before marrying a millionaire, to fall in love with him first. If he had not dedicated every inch of her lush body to memory. We accept the love we think we deserve.

Thrown into a new world, Asher finds himself becoming a wanted and unwittingly evil Necromancer. Not the career choice he'd had in mind when he began. Hunger plagues him, as he walks a path opposed to most, stepping on the fragile toes of the Synagogue and their Goddess, the Cult and even the powers he barters with. Not that any of this will matter once he's finished. Cover Art credit - @mufs(instagram) https://discord.gg/YbxrtrU A bit you might want to know about the pace; Asher is a very unlucky protagonist. So even ten chapters in he will still struggle greatly to survive. The tag says overpowered protagonist and that is true, it won't happen for a bit though, he still has to suffer a bit while getting stronger, a fantasy world isn't all it's cracked up to be after all. A bit you might want to know about what you'll be reading. The type of Necromancy practiced in Hungry Necromancer is a rather stable and balanced type of Necromancy, you'll eventually read up to parts where things are not so easily fixed with a horde of zombies and a very creepy ritual needs to be employed. As of chapter 80 things truly begin to get dire and desperate as Asher is faced with the consequences of his actions, bad deal making and even close approaching death and madness. And it ought to be so for a fiendish Warlock practicing such a dark magical art as Necromancy.

Eliana They couldn’t just turn a ten years of me training as an assassin into a slave! My brother sold me as a slave after everything I did for him to inherit the Alpha title. But guess who was the one supposed to be my master? The little brother of my first love. The brother of my first and last man I ever loved in my life. It was so twisted that when I finally saw that man, I was afraid I would lose all of my senses. But yet, the girl ten years ago died and became a killer machine like a nightmare. Don’t worry, I will seek my revenge and be hope I will not destroy myself in the process. Conrand, My Brother had the audacity to bring the girl into our pack turf. Slave or not, the first time I saw her again, I was losing my mind. Only that she was different from ten years ago. More mature and strong. She was so enchanting that even though I knew the truth of her family crimes, I always on her side at the end. And when the secret will be revealed, I hope she braced enough to know everything. ___________________ Eliana was an orphan at the age of fifteen. Her parents died due to a sudden avalanche in that winter time. It happened abruptly without warning and took not only her parents’ life. It destroyed her village and forced her pack to move out. She was clearly remembered right before her mother's death, she asked her to help her younger brother, who was just at the age of eight when that incident happened. Her last wish was that for Aibek to become an Alpha. But the law of the pack said different. Her only uncle was the only man who could inherit the Alpha title. Fortunately for her, he didn’t have a direct descendant with his Luna. And an illegitimate child was not allowed to become an Alpha. Still, she didn’t know what would happen in the future. Her only hope was for her uncle to take her brother in. And just like that, the years of her misery started. She was at her uncle's convenience, trained as an assassin to hunt down his enemy. She willingly bartered her soul to make her brother the Alpha in the future, just like what her mother last wished. But turned out the reality was more bitter than it seemed. Her brother sold her as a slave right after he became an Alpha on his coming age of ceremony. But for Eliana, she would not be cower for the man. The hardship she felt as a slave, was nothing compared to her training as an assassin. ___________________________________________ This writing is participated in CUPIDS QUILL March 2024, any comment, review, or rating will be much appreciated :) please add to your collection if you like the story
