[WARNING: MATURE CONTENT] I yanked my wrist, trying to pull free, but his grip didn’t budge. “Let me go,” I cried, surprised by how weak I sounded but for goodness sake, this is an elementary school restroom hallway, meaning anyone might walk in at any moment. “No.” He leaned in, his breath warm against the side of my neck. My skin prickled as my toes curled, I hated how my body reacted without my permission. “You’re mine,” he whispered, “Every part of you, your fear, your silence, even that defiance you’re clinging to. It’s all mine. And I’m not about to let anyone else touch or have what belongs to me. Not the world, not even yourself.” **** Kain Locke would never forget that face, the face of the man who smiled as he pulled the trigger, murdering his parents right in front of him. That moment scarred him for life, carving a hatred so deep it kept him alive. That man was Caspian Draeven, a ruthless Alpha who ruled the underworld with fear and bloodshed and as if that wasn't enough, he took Kain too, raising him in his empire of chaos. But Kain wasn’t broken as they expected him, rather, he was burning. Burning with hatred for the man who destroyed his world and he swear to get his revenge. However, Caspian wasn’t the only monster in the Draeven family. His son, Kael Draeven, was just as dangerous, cold, brutal, and utterly loyal to his father which makes Kain hated Kael just as much, if not more. For years, Kain planned his escape, waiting for the perfect moment so he can leave to prepare for his revenge. However when he finally ran, he thought he’d won his freedom. But the unexpected happens when Kael was sent to bring him back, and their confrontation took an unplanned turn. A single night left Kain with a secret he never saw coming and a bond he couldn’t forget, no matter how much he wanted to. But secrets have a way of coming to light, and Kain’s path will lead him straight back to the man he swore to hate forever. Because some bonds can’t be broken. Not even by revenge. ______________________________________ H_Hannie THIS BOOK IS A BL: MEANING IT FOCUSES ON ROMANCE BETWEEN THE SAME GENDER. kindly skip if this type of genre isn't your cup of tea.

For a century, the world has stood on the brink of annihilation. The Abyss, a realm of nightmares, tore open rifts across the land, unleashing horrors that devoured entire civilizations. Humanity fought back, but the cost was steep—kingdoms fell, empires crumbled, and power became the only law. In their so-called mercy, the gods descended, granting divine gifts to the mortals who remained. Warriors rose, new nations were forged, and an uneasy balance was struck. But the scars of the past ran deep, and beneath the surface, the world rotted. The strong preyed on the weak. Corruption festered. Justice was nothing more than a word. Kaine Duskbane knew this truth well. Once the heir to a fading noble house. With next to no magic and no ability, he entertained constant bullying and mocking from both his peers and his family. He had only one reason to fight—his younger sister, the last piece of his shattered family. She was his light in a world of darkness. And then they took her from him. Betrayed. Beaten. Forced to watch as she was defiled and slaughtered. Left to die in the mud, drowning in his own blood, he cursed the gods, cursed the world, cursed his weakness— And then he woke up in Hell. Before him stood the Seven Sins, ancient rulers of the infernal realms. Their laughter echoed through the abyss as they gave him a choice: Burn for eternity… or return for revenge. Kaine didn’t hesitate, he chose power. But such power comes with a price, a dangerous one. The gods had turned their backs on him. The world had discarded him. But in Hell, he was given something no one else had. Power. True, absolute power. When he opened his eyes again, he was reborn. Darkness surged through his veins. His heart turned to ice. His wrath became his purpose. He had been given a system. Not just any ordinary one. But one to rule with an iron fist. A Conquering System. The ones who wronged him believe themselves untouchable, shielded by their status, their wealth, their so-called divinity. But they made one fatal mistake. They left him alive. At first, his path is one of vengeance. But revenge is only the beginning. The Abyss still looms. The heavens remain arrogant. The gods sit upon their thrones, believing themselves untouchable. But with his system Kaine will show them the truth. Hell will kneel. The heavens will fall. The gods will beg for mercy. And from the ashes of the old world, he will build something new—a civilization forged in the flames of his will. The ones who gave him power....they will soon regret it.

When Emma accidentally stumbles into a ruthless demon, she never expects to catch the attention of him, Kain—a demon with piercing red eyes, dark horns, and a wicked smirk. Kain is dangerous, ruthless, and everything Emma should fear, can love survive… or will it burn them both alive?

My 19th birthday was supposed to be perfect. Instead, it became the day my world fell apart. Picture this: Me, walking in on my boyfriend Darian tangled up with Scarlet, my so-called best friend. Talk about a birthday surprise, right? Heartbroken and furious, I ran into the woods, desperate to escape. That's when things got really strange. It was time for my werewolf transformation, but something went terribly wrong. Pain ripped through me as I got stuck halfway between human and wolf. There I was, alone and scared, thinking this was how I'd die. But then he showed up. A massive gray wolf with eyes that seemed to look right into my soul. I couldn't believe it. Niko Kaine Silverbane, the Alpha King in the flesh. Kaine helped me complete my shift, but that was just the beginning. Something sparked between us, a connection I couldn't explain. It was electric, intense, and a little bit terrifying. Next thing I know, I'm trying to save my ex friend, enrolled at Banes Academy, surrounded by other young werewolves. That's where I learned the truth: Kaine and I are destined mates. Me, the orphan girl, fated to be with the most powerful Alpha in the country. It sounds like a fairy tale, right? Wrong. Turns out, being the Alpha King's mate comes with a target on your back. Enemies are everywhere, including faces I once trusted. And Kaine? He's got secrets darker than a moonless night. Now I'm racing against time to master my newfound powers and stand beside Kaine against the forces trying to tear us apart. But as the danger grows, so do my feelings for him. Will I find the strength to become the Alpha Luna I'm meant to be? Or will the darkness consume us both?

Wisnu tak pernah menyangka bahwa pekerjaannya di sebuah toko roti akan membawanya ke sebuah pulau terpencil—tempat di mana laut biru berkilauan, angin membawa aroma asin, dan kehidupan berjalan dengan aturan yang jauh berbeda dari yang ia kenal. Di antara adonan yang mengembang dan senyum ramah penduduk lokal, ia berpikir bahwa ini hanyalah sebuah awal baru yang sederhana. Namun, ia segera menyadari bahwa pulau ini menyimpan lebih dari sekadar ketenangan. Dua suku utama, Ranaha dan Vahaya, telah lama terikat dalam hubungan yang rapuh. Dan kini, ketegangan itu semakin mendidih, memuncak di Festival Baranthaka—sebuah tradisi yang seharusnya menjadi ajang pelepasan, namun justru berubah menjadi pemicu tragedi. Dua putri dari masing-masing suku, Riana dari Ranaha dan Vaya dari Vahaya, berdiri di dua sisi pertentangan yang berbeda. Keduanya memiliki kepentingan, ambisi, dan rahasia mereka sendiri. Dan entah bagaimana, Wisnu mendapati dirinya terjebak di antara mereka. Ketika darah tertumpah dan peraturan yang tak tertulis dilanggar, Wisnu dihadapkan pada pilihan: tetap menjadi orang luar yang hanya menyaksikan dari kejauhan, atau melangkah ke dalam kekacauan yang kian tak terhindarkan—tanpa jaminan bahwa ia bisa keluar dengan selamat.

Hutan Sancang, tempat yang dikenal sebagai tanah sakral bagi para pendekar, diselimuti kabut tipis saat fajar menyingsing. Di antara pepohonan raksasa dan akar-akar yang menjalar, seorang bocah lelaki berdiri tegap, tubuhnya kecil namun penuh tenaga, matanya tajam menatap seekor kijang yang tengah minum di tepi sungai. (Cicit burung terdengar bersahutan, air sungai mengalir dengan gemericik lembut…) Namanya Wira, seorang anak yatim piatu yang sejak kecil hidup di alam liar. Tubuhnya berbalut kain sederhana yang sudah usang, tetapi matanya penuh dengan semangat tak terkalahkan. Hari ini, ia harus berburu untuk bertahan hidup. Dengan nafas teratur, ia melangkah perlahan mendekati kijang itu. Namun tiba-tiba… (Dentuman keras! Seperti petir yang menyambar…) Dari dalam semak-semak, seekor harimau kumbang meloncat menerjang kijang itu dengan cakarnya yang tajam. Wira terperanjat, tapi bukan karena takut—melainkan karena kagum. Harimau itu melirik sekilas ke arahnya, seolah memberi peringatan untuk tidak mendekat. Namun, Wira tidak mundur. “Kau hebat,” gumamnya pelan. (Hening. Angin berbisik lembut di antara dedaunan…) Tanpa diduga, langkah kakinya justru membawanya lebih dekat. Harimau itu menatapnya tajam, tetapi bukan dengan amarah—melainkan dengan ketenangan yang menggetarkan jiwa. Saat itu, terdengar suara langkah kaki berat mendekat dari balik pepohonan. (Suara ranting patah, gemuruh langkah mendekat…) Sosok berjubah hitam dengan sorot mata tajam muncul dari balik rimbunan hutan. Wira menatapnya tanpa gentar. Ia tahu siapa pria itu—Prabu Siliwangi, penguasa Pajajaran, seorang raja sakti mandraguna yang konon memiliki ikatan batin dengan harimau putih. “Anak kecil, mengapa kau tidak lari?” suara Prabu Siliwangi bergema seperti petir di langit yang tenang. Wira menatapnya langsung. “Aku tidak takut.” (Guruh menggelegar di kejauhan…) Sang Prabu tersenyum tipis. Ia melihat ke dalam diri bocah itu—bukan sekadar keberanian, melainkan juga ketulusan yang langka. “Kau tidak takut mati?” “Aku hanya takut jika hidupku tidak berarti,” jawab Wira mantap. (Desir angin berhembus lebih kencang, dedaunan berjatuhan…) Mata Prabu Siliwangi berbinar. Di usianya yang telah matang, ia jarang menemukan seseorang seperti Wira—seorang anak yang tidak hanya kuat, tetapi juga memiliki jiwa yang bersih. “Aku akan mengajarimu ilmu sejati,” ujar sang Prabu. Wira mengernyit, tidak percaya dengan apa yang baru saja didengarnya. “Mengajarku?” Prabu Siliwangi mengangguk. “Kejujuran dan keberanianmu lebih kuat daripada pedang mana pun. Kau layak menjadi muridku.”

Kain always knew he was a reckless idiot, but even he didn’t expect to steal his way into a legendary disaster. Rejected by every adventurer’s guild, Kain made his living the only way he could—by looting dungeons, stealing powerful artifacts, and selling them on the black market. It was a simple plan: get in, grab the treasure, and get out before something huge and deadly crushed him. But when his latest job forces him to steal an artifact too powerful to be left unsealed, he makes one tiny, life-ruining mistake— He accidentally binds himself to Tsuki, a smug, chaotic, and infuriatingly beautiful trickster goddess with a mysterious past and zero respect for personal space. Now, thanks to his terrible life choices, Kain is: Magically bonded to a goddess with no idea how to break the link. Experiencing weird side effects, including shared dreams that show him pieces of Tsuki’s forgotten past. Banned from leaving the palace because the kingdom thinks he’s a walking magical disaster. Slowly realizing that the artifact he stole is far more dangerous than he thought. Marked by fate itself, drawing the attention of rival thieves, powerful beings, and ancient enemies. And worst of all? He’s starting to see Tsuki in a way he really, really shouldn’t. What should have been a simple job has turned into the adventure of his life, and with each passing day, the bond between them grows stronger. But when the truth of Tsuki’s past begins to surface—along with a warlord’s long-sealed power—Kain realizes that he’s not just in over his head. He’s at the center of something huge. Something that could shake the world. And the only way out? Is forward.
