Cruelly Bitten

Reborn as the Last van Ambrose

Elias "Grim" Kingsley, a nine-year-old orphan with a hardened heart and sharp tongue, dies alone from pneumonia in an overcrowded orphanage. Known for his perpetual scowl and biting remarks, he's labeled a "problem child" by caretakers and "damaged goods" by potential adopters. Years of rejection have built thick armor around his young heart. In death, he encounters the God of Balance who offers him a second chance at life in a different world—this time as Grim Van Ambrose, son of a noble house. Balance explains that every soul deserves to know love and connection, something Elias was cruelly denied in his first life. Promised the family and belonging he never experienced, Grim begins his new life only to suffer an immediate tragedy: his mother dies moments after his birth. This cruel twist of fate reinforces his belief that loss is inevitable, leaving him with a distant father and the mysterious voice of a "Guidance Assistant" in his head. As Grim grows into his new identity, he struggles with his dual nature—the emotional scars of his past life bleeding into his present one. His difficult personality and sharp tongue remain, now paired with noble privilege and expectations. Despite his outward brashness, he carries the deep wounds of his first life and the fresh loss that welcomed him into his second. What begins as one orphan's second chance evolves into an epic journey through a world of ancient beasts, elemental magic, and deadly political intrigue. As Grim uncovers the truth about the Ambrose Clan's fall from grace and the conspiracy that framed them for treason, he faces increasingly dangerous adversaries—both human and monstrous. His quest for revenge against those who destroyed his family's legacy will challenge him to master forbidden techniques, forge unexpected alliances, and ultimately decide whether to rebuild the Ambrose Clan as it was, or transform it into something entirely new. In a realm where power determines survival and ancient secrets lurk beneath noble facades, Grim must learn that sometimes the greatest battles aren't fought with swords, but with the choices that define who we truly are.

Der Milliardär steht hinter mir

Nach sechs Jahren, in denen Hazel Ashworth Julian Grayson geliebt und ihn buchstäblich mit ihren seltenen Blutspenden am Leben erhalten hat, ist sie nur noch drei Tage davon entfernt, seine Frau zu werden, als er anruft, um ihre Hochzeit abzusagen. Der Grund? Ihre Halbschwester Ivy wurde mit Krebs im Endstadium diagnostiziert, und ihr letzter Wunsch ist es, stattdessen Julian zu heiraten. Hazel muss mit Entsetzen zusehen, wie Julian ihr handgefertigtes Hochzeitskleid zu Ivy bringt, die plant, es zu tragen, während sie nicht nur Hazels Verlobten stiehlt, sondern ihre gesamte Hochzeit – gleicher Veranstaltungsort, gleiches Datum, sogar die gleiche Kuchengeschmacksrichtung. Es ist eine verheerende Wiederholung ihrer Kindheit, als Ivys Mutter Eleanor Hazels Familie zerstörte, indem sie ihren Vater verführte und ihre Mutter in den Selbstmord trieb, und dann Jahre damit verbrachte, Hazel auszugrenzen, während Ivy alles nahm, was einst ihr gehörte. Aber diesmal weigert sich Hazel, wie ihre Mutter zusammenzubrechen. Sie fordert Julians gesamtes Unternehmen und zwei Millionen Dollar als Entschädigung und erscheint dann im Krankenhaus, um Ivys "Hochzeitsgeschenk" auf die explosivste Art und Weise zu überreichen. Während Ivy das perfekte sterbende Opfer spielt und Julian blind für ihre Manipulation bleibt, beginnt Hazel zu vermuten, dass die Krankheit ihrer Halbschwester vielleicht nicht so tödlich ist, wie alle glauben. Als Ivy die Dreistigkeit besitzt, Hazel zu bitten, Zeugin ihrer Hochzeit mit Julian zu sein, fallen die Handschuhe vollständig. Nun muss Hazel entscheiden, wie weit sie gehen will, um die Wahrheit aufzudecken und zurückzufordern, was rechtmäßig ihr gehört, selbst wenn das bedeutet, den Mann zu zerstören, den sie einst geliebt hat.

Meine zwei Milliardärs-Ehemänner: Ein Plan für Rache

[Warnung: Reife Inhalte, ab 18 Jahren] Camilla Watson-Veston hatte keine andere Wahl, als ihr wohlhabendes Leben hinter sich zu lassen und ihren Sohn allein als gewöhnliche Angestellte großzuziehen. Eine Frau voller Wut und Zorn wegen des Verrats ihrer einzig wahren Liebe ist in der Tat sehr gefährlich. Als sie nur an Rache denken konnte, hat das Karma seine lustige Art, diejenigen zu belohnen, die es verdienen, mit dem, was sie verdienen. Manchmal nicht nur mit einem, sondern mit zwei oder mehr Segnungen auf einmal. Was wird Cammy tun, wenn das Universum ihr nicht nur zwei Optionen zur Auswahl gibt, sondern drei oder mehr? Wird sie in der Lage sein zu wählen, welchen Weg sie einschlagen soll, wenn nichts der richtige zu sein scheint? Wenn Freiheit zu viel kostet und Glück schwer zu erreichen ist, wird das Leben Cammy von süß zu bitter machen? ********** Auszug aus der Geschichte: "Du bist verdammt umwerfend, Cammy, und lass dir von niemandem etwas anderes einreden. Dein Ehemann ist ein Narr, dass er dich gehen ließ. Ich werde dir genau zeigen, was du vermisst hast. Auch wenn es nur für heute Nacht ist, ich verspreche dir, du wirst mich nicht vergessen. Danach werde ich der einzige Mann in deinen Gedanken sein," sagte Greg, bevor er ihre Lippen in einem leidenschaftlichen Kuss einfing. War es falsch, es zu akzeptieren, nur weil sie verheiratet war, obwohl der Mann, mit dem sie verheiratet war, sie immer wieder betrogen hatte? Ihr Verstand ließ die Logik los; es war ihr egal, ob das, was sie taten, verboten war. Sie hatte sich entschieden, sich ihm vollständig hinzugeben und ihn heute Nacht mit ihr machen zu lassen, was er wollte. Also flüsterte sie: "Mach das Licht aus..." Greg grinste, wissend, dass der Schalter in Reichweite war, aber anstatt das Licht vollständig auszuschalten, dimmte er es auf das schwächste Glühen, ohne seinen Blick von ihr abzuwenden. "Verzeih mir, Cammy. Ich kann es nicht vollständig ausschalten. Ich möchte dein Gesicht sehen, wenn ich dich immer wieder in den Himmel bringe, während du meinen Namen schreist." Ihre Hände fuhren über seine breite, starke Brust und spürten deren Kraft und Festigkeit. 'Oh Gott, ich berühre den Körper eines anderen Mannes!' schrie sie still in ihrem Kopf. Bevor ihr Mut vollständig schwand, spürte sie, wie Greg ihr Handgelenk umfasste, ihre Lippen freigab und flüsterte: "Noch nicht, schöne Frau. Lass es uns langsam angehen... Ich möchte, dass du dich an unsere gemeinsame Zeit als deine beste ohne Reue erinnerst. Ich möchte, dass du dich an mich als den Mann erinnerst, der dich wichtig und begehrt fühlen ließ. Heute Nacht bist du die einzige Frau in meinem Leben. Die einzige Frau, die meine Augen sehen und an die mein Verstand denkt. Du gehörst mir und nur mir. Verstehst du das?!" ********** Ein Liedauszug, der die Emotion des Buches widerspiegelt. ***Das Lied gehört nicht mir.*** Ich erinnere mich an die Zeit, als wir verliebt waren Und wir folgten dem Feuer in unseren Herzen Wir bewegten jeden Berg, den wir berührten Und wir tanzten im Licht der Sterne Ich weiß, nichts Schönes hält ewig Aber wenn ich in den Himmel komme, werde ich darum bitten Zurückzukehren zu der Zeit, als wir verliebt waren... ********** Die abgeschlossenen Werke des Autors: Buch 1: Vertragsbesessener Geschäftsführer - Zeitgenössische Romanze (Geschäftsführer/Süße Liebe), 2023 Buch 2: Das königliche Zeichen - Fantasy-Romanze (Werwolf/Schicksalsgefährten), 2023

Cursed Bond: Claimed By The Monstrous Alpha Prince [BL]

Lilac has lived a life of suffering. From being forced to disguise himself as a girl to survive, to being labeled cursed after failing to awaken his heavenly gifts that everyone else could, he is shunned by all. To add salt to his wound, before he turns 18, his father vanishes, and his uncle seizes the throne that should've rightfully been Lilac's as the eldest son. Before Lilac could successfully flee, he is caught and traded to the monsters beyond the kingdom—beasts so feared that no one who sees them returns. But instead of death, Lilac is claimed by Sloan. Born cursed, Sloan is a prince of the Enwulves, an extinct hybrid wolf species. Even though he is a prince, he has lived life as an outcast due to his curse that causes him to forcibly transform every full moon, thus losing his humanity. His life has been mapped out for him, but when he finds Lilac—battered, freezing, and terrified—something shifts. For the first time, his rage stills. It was just a glimpse, a scent, a tiny whimper of fright. And that was it. Humans are meant to be slaves. Enwulves are forbidden from claiming them. Keeping Lilac means war. But Sloan has never followed rules, and Lilac has never belonged—until now. ~~~ | ~~~ “Are you afraid of me, little human?” Sloan husked out, cold lips grazing my bleeding fingers before his lips parted slightly to release hot breath over them. I trembled, rooted in the spot with fright and unable to breathe. Was this a trick question? Of course I’m afraid of him! Everyone is! Who wouldn’t be? Slaves are never supposed to be in his presence, except they suddenly desire a quick demise. Am I supposed to respond honestly or lie? When cold lips closed around my finger, I gasped in shock, a rush of fright and dread engulfing me. He was gonna bite off my finger right now, wasn’t he? Just because my stupid brain couldn’t come up with a response? The rumors said he was a heartless psychopath, but I didn’t think it was actually true! However, a hot tongue swiped over my fingertips and I sucked in a sharp breath, exhaling shakily while my chest expanded and my brain tried to figure out what was happening, and why my fingers weren't bitten off yet— or why I’m still breathing in his presence. Next, cold, long fingers wrapped around my wrist and my hand was being tugged upward, then a nose was digging into my pulse point, and I almost fainted when cold lips dragged over the sensitive skin there. The sound of a deep inhale filled up my ear next. “Fuck. You smell so good.” Oh heavens. This was worse than I thought. Instead of killing me, was he planning to… eat me… literally???! What the fuck? *** R18+! Cover not mine!

The First Vampire: A Journey Into The Supernatural

The story began when Lucifer grew bored. This led him to decide to create a superior race to his father's, for his own entertainment. This race would surpass humans in every aspect, but there were still limitations to what he could achieve. For instance, he couldn't deceive the sun, a natural force belonging to his father, God. He desired a race that could outwit and behave like humans in order to deceive his father's masterpiece, but he couldn't create it in the same way as his father. Therefore, he opted for a shortcut - creating a disease known as vampirism. The main character becomes the first vampire, obtaining the blessing from Lucifer himself. In the year 646 A.D. in a small village in The Frankish Kingdom, a young albino girl named Carmilla lived in fear for her life. In those dark ages, her unique appearance meant almost certain death. Confined to the basement of her house, she had never seen the world beyond its walls. Her parents kept her in chains, showing her no love or kindness, except for her sister Anna, who was her only source of comfort and care. However, tragedy struck when fate cruelly took Anna away. Alone and desperate, Carmilla prayed for salvation, and in her darkest moment, an unexpected blessing came from the Seraphim Lucifer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In my novel, Carmilla will embark on a journey through different time periods, facing great dangers along the way. She may encounter historical figures such as Vlad The Impaler, visit the Lancaster duchess, and possibly even travel to Brazil. The story will be filled with numerous historical events, some of which will be altered while others may not occur at all. The supernatural world will be rich with a variety of folklore from real life, some of which I may create myself. Elements such as werewolves, sorcery, faith bearers, pagan gods, and more will be included. I draw inspiration from real world legends and events, and will also introduce some original creations of my own. Many of the vampire characters in the story will be influenced by existing vampire literature, such as Castlevania, Vampire: The Masquerade, Count Dracula, and others.
