Bloodstream Emilee Carter

Travis Carter was a former basketball prodigy with a promising future. Now, he’s a broken man—homeless, washed-up, and ready to die. Life crushed him, and he’s tired of fighting back. But on the rainy streets one fateful night, he sees a little girl about to be hit by a speeding truck. Without thinking, he dives in to save her, sacrificing his life in the process. But death isn’t the end. Travis wakes up in a strange, empty void, face-to-face with a smug, golden-eyed cat that claims to be “a god.” The cat sneers at his wasted potential and offers him one final chance: a reset. Suddenly, Travis opens his eyes to a reality he thought he’d left behind—his teenage self, 20 years ago, at the moment he first made the high school basketball team. Confused and furious, Travis struggles to adjust to this second shot at life. His old demons haunt him, and the clock is ticking—every decision he makes could either reclaim his lost future or send him spiraling back to the same dark fate. But this time, he’s not playing just for glory. This time, he’s playing to survive. In a world of harsh realities, cutthroat rivalries, and brutal self-reflection, can Travis fight through his inner darkness and seize the future he threw away? Or will the shadows of his past drag him down once again?

"Ich, Logan Carter, Alpha des Mondsichel-Rudels, lehne dich, Emma Parker vom Mondsichel-Rudel, ab." Ich spürte, wie mein Herz brach. Leon heulte in mir, und ich konnte seinen Schmerz spüren. Sie sah mich direkt an, und ich konnte den Schmerz in ihren Augen sehen, aber sie weigerte sich, ihn zu zeigen. Die meisten Wölfe fallen vor Schmerz in die Knie. Ich wollte auf die Knie fallen und mich an die Brust krallen. Aber sie tat es nicht. Sie stand mit hoch erhobenem Kopf da. Sie holte tief Luft und schloss ihre wunderschönen Augen. "Ich, Emma Parker vom Mondsichelrudel, akzeptiere deine Ablehnung." Als Emma 18 Jahre alt wird, ist sie überrascht, dass ihr Gefährte der Alpha ihres Rudels ist. Aber ihre Freude darüber, ihren Gefährten gefunden zu haben, währte nicht lange. Ihre Gefährtin hat sie für eine stärkere Wölfin verstoßen. Diese Wölfin hasst Emma und will sie loswerden, aber das ist nicht das Einzige, womit Emma zu kämpfen hat. Emma findet heraus, dass sie keine gewöhnliche Wölfin ist und dass es Menschen gibt, die sie benutzen wollen. Sie sind gefährlich. Sie werden alles tun, um zu bekommen, was sie wollen. Was wird Emma tun? Wird ihr Gefährte bereuen, dass er sie zurückgewiesen hat? Wird ihre Gefährtin sie vor den Menschen um sie herum retten?

“Are you scared?” Vaerion asked, his deep voice muffled slightly by the helmet he wore. Asuriel sniffled, swallowing the remnants of her emotional breakdown. In contradiction to the nervousness she felt boiling in her stomach, she scoffed, “Of course not.” “A shame,” the devil chuckled, a hint of mischief in his tone. “Let’s fix that.” Before Asuriel could ask what he meant, the motorcycle’s engine roared to life, and inertia sent her body backward. She instinctively jumped forward and tightened her grip on the man’s waist. If only she could see the victorious smirk that her action elicited from Vaerion. The sounds of the bike reverberated deep in her chest, making a home in her ribcage. The pair flew through the night, passing cars and buildings so quickly that it all looked like multicolored streaks of light rushing by. Her heartbeat soared as adrenaline and fear filled her bloodstream. As they rode out of the city, Vaerion spoke to her through their mind-link, his tone possessive, “Your fear is mine to evoke. Don’t you dare cry again – unless I’m the one to make you.” —— In a modern, urban world where the celestial and infernal realms secretly shape mortal existence, Asuriel has always considered herself an ordinary woman with a passion for mixing drinks and living a boring, ignoble life. But as her twenty-fifth birthday approaches, everything changes. Powerful abilities hidden deep beneath the surface since childhood finally begin to burst through, revealing her cursed heritage – which marks her as both a miracle and an abomination. A beastly devil named Vaerion Sinclair—the charismatic and ruthless CEO of one of the largest business conglomerates—has been tied to her since she was young by her strange abilities. Now, having been awoken, the bond they share is activated – both physically and mentally. Being forced to share dreams and stay within 10 feet of a stranger 24/7 is troublesome, to say the least... especially when he is a walking temptation. As these new, unbridled powers threaten to tear her apart, she discovers that, if she wants to survive, she has to unravel the mystery of her origins and the prophecy tied to her bloodline. Her body has turned into a ticking time bomb. Alongside Vaerion, who is obligated to help out of the selfish desire to preserve his own life, the pair uncovers threads of lies, betrayal, and forbidden love that could ignite a war between the celestial and infernal realms. —— My Inkbound Devil gives you a slice of all your favorite tropes: urban, fantasy romance with a devil-beast CEO and dark, heavy atmosphere… with R18 smut as icing on the cake.~ Join us on this adventure, and support the novel if you enjoy it!
