Alistair Inbetweeners

The Billionaire's Dangerous Redemption

Three days. That’s how close I was to marrying Alistair, the man I’d loved for six years, the man whose life I’d literally saved with my own rare blood. I was just admiring the final pearl on my wedding dress, a gown I’d poured my soul into, when he called. The wedding? Off. He was marrying my stepsister, Ivy. Her dying wish, he said. Six months to live, maybe less. The kicker? He’d already taken my wedding dress from my studio for her. Just like that, six years, countless transfusions, our shared dreams – all tossed aside for the girl who’d made my life a living hell since childhood. He even offered me “compensation,” as if my future had a price tag. But if Alistair and Ivy thought I’d just crumble, they seriously underestimated me. They wanted my fiancé? Fine. But it would cost them. First, our multi-million-dollar fashion company, Evening Gala – built on my designs, my vision. He signed it over. Then, a cool million for the stolen dress. He paid. Another million for the wedding jewelry they dared to ask me to hand over for Ivy. Cha-ching. You’d think they’d learn. But no. Their next proposal was the most insulting yet: Alistair actually suggested that I should just wait. That after Ivy’s ‘inevitable’ passing in a few months, he and I could just pick up where we left off, have an even better wedding. Seriously? Enough was enough. If Ivy wanted to play bride with my life, she was going to get a taste of what happens when you push someone too far. Let's just say her hospital room celebration involved a lot more smoke, water, and screaming than she bargained for, all thanks to a little wedding gift from yours truly. Now they know I’m not the same Hazel they could walk all over. I’ve got my company, a pile of their cash, and a whole lot of scores to settle. They think this is over? This game of revenge is just getting started. And believe me, I play to win.

Legacy of the Frozen Heiress

They once called her Cinderella. A backhanded compliment for Seraphina Fell, the forgotten daughter of a fallen noble house—pretty enough to be admired, but never meant to stay. She thought love would save her. Until Alistair Ravenscroft, the second son of a Marquis and the man she trusted most, threw her aside for a political marriage… and didn’t even have the dignity to tell her himself. Broken, disgraced, and abandoned—Seraphina thought her story had ended. Then the King of the North appeared. Yuri Pendragon—Duke of the North, Warden of the Wyrmfrost, and living legend—stood before her with a single, devastating revelation: “You are my daughter.” Overnight, Seraphina went from a ruined nobody to the heir of a Duchy feared across the kingdom. But becoming a Pendragon meant more than wearing a name—it meant surviving it. Thrown into a brutal world of frost, monsters, and politics, Seraphina is forged in blade and ice, trained to succeed a man feared as much as he is revered. Years later, she returns stronger, colder… and with a plan. To take revenge on the man who once discarded her, she offers a contract engagement to his sickly, forgotten older brother—the true heir to the Marquisate. “I want an engagement with Lord Cassien.” “Then use me,” he says. “Just don’t hold back.” But as Seraphina and Cassien play the nobles’ game of power and vengeance, their alliance begins to thaw into something far more dangerous. Behind his silence lies a secret. Behind her armor, a heart that still remembers how to break. She was never Cinderella. She is the daughter of a dragon. And this is her legacy. Note:This is inspired to the webtoon I wasnt Cindirella

The Duke’s Bargain

“What did you say?” Félix asked. She repeated, “Name your price.” “What is that supposed to mean?” His voice had tapered off with an unreadable emotion that got her weak in her knees, but she held out her chin. “Didn't you once offer to pay me off? Now, make me an offer I cannot refuse. Otherwise, I will go in there"—she gestured toward the Ball—"and make everyone think you dragged me out here to take advantage of me. I know exactly what that would do to your reputation.” “Say. That. Again,” Félix said through gritted teeth as he inched closer to her. ====================== She hadn’t meant to upset him or, worse, blackmail him. She didn’t even know who he was; she only knew he looked important because of how regally he stood in the moonlit dark. Estella was the baron of Cleverdale’s youngest, born into a hard life and always kept on her toes. Her stepsisters hated her. The baroness loathed her. And her father, the only one she called family, shattered her heart when he sold her to Viscount Alistair Ravensdale to cover up his misdeeds. The night of Lady Agatha’s ball, she seized her chance and ran straight into … Duke Félix of Chateaûbriant. In the dark, he mistook her for Princess Coralie, his fiancée, and kissed her. When the moon revealed her face, something about her stuck with him. He couldn’t shake the image of her running wildly or how she smelled like white lotus with hardcore roots. But when she threatened his reputation, he refused to play along. She returned to her world of cruel sisters and an unwanted engagement. What she hadn’t prepared for was the Duke arriving at her doorstep, making two outrageous claims. One. He was the Duke of Chateaûbriant. And two. She had stolen something valuable from him that night. What had she stolen without knowing it? Or worse, what could he possibly demand as repayment? ✯Like it? Add to Library!

Heartstone Chronicles

In the world created by a mystical barrier, which is unknown and strange and is called the Veil, there existed two oldest reincarnated souls: Yumi and Ren. They are reborn into a body of a young child but one doesn't have any emotion. They are devoid of memories about their past life. They are awakened in a reality that is both strange and familiar-a place which is ruled by the Architect, a sentient, ancient power that will determine the fates of the two old souls. This cryptic entity will lead them into a destiny that entwines the destiny of their very beings to the balance between light and dark. Along with Yumi and Ren, there are two other reborn souls: Alistair and Lyra. They were initially walking on separate paths but later converged on the same track where the association of all four now has increasing importance. Like Yumi and Ren, Alistair-the strong protective soul, and Lyra-the intelligent, yet cautious spirit-are also deprived of their emotions. But as they travel through this treacherous world, they will each rediscover connections with one another and all develop a different kind of bond that will come from the brittle trust of experiences they share. Yumi, Ren, Alistair, and Lyra do not remember what they were, and now they must walk through the hostile, unknown world where every step brings them closer to danger. As they travel the path back to regain their lost emotions, their life will be constantly challenged with the kind of threat that would push them beyond their limits-in strength, in bravery, and in survival. On this arduous journey, their ties convert-ties once made from brittle trust into something deep and unshakable, like the one formed between Yumi and Ren and the one formed between Alistair and Lyra. In this way, they turn these relationships into their ultimate weapon against the enemy forces out to control them. The mysterious system guides both couples to battle external enemies and the internal struggle over the very being of their souls. Inherent within their journey is the fundamental search for themselves and their emotions-questions that unravel how complicated their ties can be.

They must learn to live with the opposing forces inside themselves-darkness and light-and leave behind a legacy of unity and healing for future generations.

The hollow ones

Forensic psychologist Eleanor "Ellie" Grayson is called to evaluate Jonas Blackwood, the sole survivor of a gruesome massacre linked to an occult ritual. Jonas exhibits disturbing behavior—his eyes empty, his voice shifting, and his words cryptic: “We are many. We are hollow.” At first, Ellie assumes he’s suffering from severe psychological trauma, but when a wave of unexplained violence spreads through the psychiatric hospital where he’s held, she realizes something far more sinister is at play. As Ellie investigates, she uncovers a chilling legend—The Hollow Ones. Once human, these beings have been emptied of all emotions, desires, and identities, becoming vessels for an ancient, unknowable force. The more people they consume, the stronger their presence in the world. And the more Ellie learns about them, the more they take notice of her. Soon, she begins experiencing eerie symptoms—her reflection lags in mirrors, she hears voices whispering from the shadows, and she feels her emotions dulling as if something is siphoning her very soul. Desperate for answers, she joins forces with Dr. Alistair Kincaid, an occult historian who warns that once someone is marked by the Hollow Ones, the process of hollowing out is nearly unstoppable. As Ellie fights to retain her sense of self, she discovers that Jonas Blackwood’s excavation of an ancient burial site may have unleashed the Hollow Ones once more. The entities do not kill—they spread, infecting the minds and bodies of the living, transforming them into soulless husks. Now, Ellie must race against time to stop the spread before she loses herself completely. But how do you fight something that is already inside you? And if the price of survival means sacrificing a part of her humanity, is she willing to pay it? In a chilling blend of supernatural horror and psychological suspense, The Hollow Ones is a terrifying exploration of identity, possession, and the creeping fear of losing what makes us human.

Jeune Miss Renaissante : Phénix Ardent Rouge

[Statut : TERMINÉ] Dans sa vie antérieure, Adrienne Jiang avait utilisé tous les moyens pour sauver la vie de sa mère. Son père l'avait négligée après avoir épousé sa maîtresse, permettant à ce duo mère-fille de la tyranniser sans fin. Le frère aîné sur lequel elle pensait pouvoir compter lui avait donné froidement le dos et l'avait réprimandée pour ne pas avoir coupé le soutien vital de leur mère. Dans son désespoir, Adrienne a failli tomber dans le piège tendu par sa demi-sœur. Finalement, elle est entrée dans un mariage contractuel avec le frère de sa meilleure amie, Alistair Han, un homme pour qui elle avait le béguin depuis son plus jeune âge. Ce n'est qu'alors qu'elle a réalisé que cet homme était manipulateur et obsessionnel, ne voulant pas la perdre de vue. Elle avait été traitée comme un oiseau piégé dans une cage dorée. À la fin, elle a trouvé la mort trahie par son frère et tout a été perdu dans l'incendie. Après être renée, elle était déterminée à ne plus continuer à être une personne bonne à rien. Lennox Qin, le jeune maître vicieux de la famille Qin, était prêt à devenir le prochain chef de leur famille. Cependant, à cause d'un incident, il a été estropié et jugé indigne. Lorsque son chemin a croisé celui d'Adrienne, ils sont parvenus à un accord. « Je t'épouserai pour éloigner ta malchance et être ta femme pendant deux ans. En retour, permets-moi de t'utiliser pour détruire les familles Han et Jiang. » L'homme assis dans un fauteuil roulant a simplement levé un sourcil à sa déclaration. Ses lèvres se sont ensuite étirées en un sourire séduisant et il a accepté sans ciller. Cependant, lorsque le moment était presque venu, il s'est empressé de la convaincre de rester dans leur mariage. « Madame Qin mérite le meilleur. Si c'est le monde que tu désires, je te l'apporterai sur un plateau d'argent. Tu peux avoir le monde entier, mais chérie, n'oublie pas que bien que tout t'appartienne, tu m'appartiens. » Adrienne fronça les sourcils. « Mais tu ne m'aimes même pas... » Elle a tenté de raisonner, pensant que son mari avait perdu la raison. « Non, ce n'était pas le cas, mais maintenant je t'aime. En fait, tu es la seule à qui je pense ces jours-ci. » Cependant, il semblait pour elle que non seulement son mari essayait d'attirer son attention, mais sa belle-famille également.
