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.

The Sovereign of the Cosmic Mysteries

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.

Kaelen the mercenary god in the Middle East

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.

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.

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.

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.
