Alistair Inbetweeners

When Julia Harrow arrives at Blackwood Hall after the sudden death of her cousin, she expects mourning, a will, and polite condolences. But from the moment she steps through the iron gates, nothing feels right. The house is too quiet. The air too thick. And the man who now owns it—Alistair Blackwood—is as devastating as he is unreadable. Secrets pulse behind every locked door. Shadows move when no one is near. And the scent of her cousin still lingers in the halls, clinging like a warning. Drawn into a world of velvet lies and dangerous charm, Julia begins to lose time, lose trust, lose herself. Dreams bleed into reality. Passion turns to poison. And as desire tangles with dread, one question haunts her every breath: Did she come here by choice… or was she summoned? The Portrait of Lady Marian is a lush, slow-burning descent into madness, obsession, and a love story that should never have happened. Sinister, sensual, and dripping in dread, this is not a tale you read— it’s one you survive.

Humans have spread across the universe, however, they found more than empty planets in their trek across the stars. The Druin stood in their path, a demonic looking race. As the war waged on for centuries, humanity began to delve deeper into their genetic code aiming to amplify their one advantage over their adverseries. Seth is one of these mutated humans advanced to be the ultimate weapon in the eradication of the Druin. The trials he went through allowed him to kill the enemy and be damn good at it, but not everyone was as lucky or as good. The humans called them scouts, the Druin called them poison bloods. Hated by both, Seth lies inbetween, not completely human but niether alien.

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.

In a world where civilization clings to the ruins of forgotten empires and the desert guards secrets as ancient as time itself, calm is shattered by the emergence of inexplicable phenomena. Collective nightmares, the mass flight of animals, and the manifestation of impossible glyphs that radiate an alien light begin to sow terror among remote settlements. They are not mere anomalies; they are the scars of a reality that is cracking—through which the whispers of the ineffable and the energies of ancient cosmic entities begin to seep. Amid this awakening of horrors emerges Alistair Finch, a young scholar whose lineage has gifted him a rare ability: the perception and manipulation of the arcane currents that flow through the world, a mystical art of cultivation that connects him to the hidden truths of the universe. Driven by an insatiable thirst for knowledge and a stubborn determination, Alistair embarks on a dangerous journey to understand the nature of these glyphs and the growing threat they represent. From millennia-old temples consumed by overgrowth to sealed libraries holding forbidden knowledge, Alistair ventures down a path where sanity is the price of truth. He discovers that these glyphs are gateways to vast extradimensional abysses—realms inhabited by beings of incomprehensible power and alien morality, whose mere existence threatens to unravel known reality. As the boundaries between the tangible and the cosmic blur, Alistair must face not only the terrifying manifestations of these entities, but also the internal struggle to preserve his own mind. His journey will make him the Sovereign of the Cosmic Mysteries: not by a power of domination, but by his unique ability to navigate among the darkest truths and the deepest secrets of the cosmos—trying to seal the wounds of the world before the unknown consumes everything.

In the heart of a war-torn Middle East, Kaelen is an enigma. At just four years old, his child's body hides the mind and soul of Alistair Thorne, a legendary and ruthless 19th-century elite supersoldier, reborn after a fatal mission. Waking in a modern world not his own, Kaelen finds himself in an impoverished village where survival is the only law. Far from being a helpless child, Kaelen possesses an innate ability for violence and tactical dominance. His rebirth activates the "God-Level Mercenary System," an advanced interface that not only grants him experience and lethal rewards for each eliminated enemy (from ammunition to medicine and combat analysis) but also unlocks knowledge branches like Military Engineering and Combat Medicine. This system allows him to not just recall and perfect his past skills but also pushes him to surpass his previous limits, learning new mechanics to analyze weapons, hone his physique, and master the art of modern warfare. When a band of marauders attacks his humble village, Kaelen's brutal efficiency is unleashed. Despite the limitations of his small body and the exhausting fight, he uses the terrain, rudimentary weapons, and his lethal special forces martial arts to decimate the bandits, proving that a child can be the nightmare of any hostile force. His act of protection earns him the respect and fear of the villagers. However, Kaelen is no conventional savior. As a relentless leader with a clear objective, he warns them that his stay is temporary. With the cold authority of a commander, he forces both children and adults to undergo brutal training, forging them into a legion of survivors. His goal is clear: to transcend his past, dominate the underworld of shadows and arms trafficking, and become the ultimate Mercenary God, capable of raising villages, commanding armies, and overthrowing governments, all while searching for the proper place for his growing power.

Vicas was already falling apart before his world changed. In a world where safety is a lie and people are worse than monsters. The weak. Die. The strong. Die Only the ones who adapt survive. A slow burning tale of Gods, men and the madness inbetween.

A ruthless corporate strategist wakes up in a mud-filled trench during the Crimean War, inside the disgraced body of Captain Alistair Peregrine Finchley. Branded a coward. Hated by London. Assets frozen. Empire wants him hanged. Finchley wants tea. Now stuck in an alternate Victorian Britain era with only a sarcastic, old-fashioned “Gentleman’s Ledger” and his battlefield instincts, Finchley sets one goal, Retire in peace. Preferably rich. Definitely far away from cannon fire. But peace is expensive. And the empire is on sale. So he does what any disgraced noble with a modern MBA and a sniper with math-based hearing would do... turn a slum pawnshop into an intelligence network, and recruits a squad of misfits. While they do the dirty work, Finchley delegates, invests, and drinks tea. But retirement isn't so easy to outsource, especially when the gentleman ledger he carries mysteries of its own. And the Empire? It’s about to go on the market. "War? No, thank you. I’m building a pension."

Betrayed. Exiled. Forgotten. On the eve of his coronation, Prince Alistair Varian Dragos lost everything. His father, the High King, was murdered. His kingdom, once prosperous, fell into the hands of traitors. His people, whom he once swore to protect, were forced into slavery. And he? He was left to rot in a frozen wasteland, buried beneath the corpses of his fallen knights. But fate is not so kind as to let him die. With nothing but his will and the fire of vengeance in his heart, Alistair rises once more. He does not seek mere revenge. He does not dream of reclaiming his lost throne. He will build something greater. A kingdom forged not in the lies of nobles, but in the blood of his enemies. A realm where the strong rise and the weak perish. An empire that will not fall to treachery. They stole his birthright. Now, he will take the world. The game of thrones is over. The age of empires begins.

I wasn’t part of the story. My name wasn’t written on any page. I was born into a world I didn’t know, in the body of a small child named Tiamat. I had no clues, no explanations. Only a heavy silence and a deeper fear. I was a power no one could understand, a being this world refused to accept. This is how my reign began — in a world unprepared for the awakening of a king who was never meant to exist.

"Alistair, Man's Defender. You shall no longer be of the heavenly host, and will be cast out of heaven, with Lucifer's Fallen." I looked up and saw Gods face. He had a sad smile, "your voice shall be missed." Was the last thing I remember before I blacked out.

The Pale Monarch In a vast multiverse, five Monarchs balance the forces of existence, ruled by the divine Benevolent Eyes. But when Raziel, the Monarch of Shades, betrays and kills Alistair, the Monarch of Light, darkness spreads across the universes. Unknown to Raziel, the Monarch of Souls secretly preserved a fragment of Alistair’s soul and placed it in the lifeless body of Cedric, the son of a town chief on Low Earth. Now reborn as Cedric, Alistair exists in a human body, stripped of his full power. He must grow, learn, and struggle as he rediscovers himself—not just as a Monarch, but as a human. But when Raziel discovers his survival, he unleashes Pandemoniums, monstrous demons that devour mana and destroy worlds. The invasion forces Low Humans to flee to the floating Sky City, where they must live under the rule of High Humans, the privileged children of the Monarchs. As Cedric fights to protect the weak, he begins to unlock his lost power, but the High Humans see him as a threat. Betrayed and cast down to the ruined lands below, he must now survive alone against terrifying creatures—while discovering the truth behind Raziel’s betrayal and his own purpose as the last hope against the darkness. A journey of power, destiny, and humanity begins.

After millennia's of slumber, Alistair Vaelmont, the legendary Vampire King, awakens to a world that has long forgotten the truth. History has been rewritten, casting his kind as demons vanquished by humanity’s holy warriors. But as Alistair emerges from his tomb, he soon learns that his awakening was no accident—ancient enemies stir, secret societies move in the shadows, and a fanatical order known as the Crimson Dawn seeks to destroy him before he regains his full strength. Betrayed by history and hunted by those who fear his power, Alistair must navigate a new era of technology, deception, and supernatural war. As he gathers allies—including a mysterious woman named Lilith, who claims to guard the forgotten truths of his kind—he is forced to ask a chilling question: Who is the real enemy? With humanity on the brink of unknowable horrors and a hidden war brewing, Alistair must reclaim his throne, unearth the buried past, and prepare for the darkness that is coming. Because if the world refuses to accept the Vampire King… he will remind them why they once feared the night.

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

But the palace holds its dangers.

“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!

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?
