Struggling to survive in the shadows of his abuse, Dysis is forced into a terrifying new reality when her father offers her as payment for his debts to Alexander Levi, a ruthless and powerful mafia leader. Alexander, a cold and calculating figure, is used to controlling everyone and everything around him, but Dysis is different. Her defiance ignites something in him, both a desire for power and an attraction he cannot ignore. Dysis discovers she has lost control of her life after being brought to the Levi estate, a world of luxury and peril. She discovers the harsh reality of being imprisoned in a golden cage: resistance might be her only chance to survive, but escape is impossible. Despite Alexander’s iron grip on her, Dysis finds an unlikely ally in Vee, a loyal maid and bodyguard who shares her own dark past. Together, they form a fragile bond, but Dysis’s escape attempts are swiftly punished by Alexander, whose growing feelings for her complicate his ruthless, mafia-driven world. Meanwhile, Lucian Everett, the family doctor, offers Dysis a glimpse of kindness amidst the chaos, stirring emotions that further unsettle her. As Dysis navigates this twisted power struggle, secrets about her father’s betrayal and Alexander’s tragic past begin to surface. Dysis must choose between fighting for her independence at all costs or submitting to Alexander's domination in a world full of deceit, deception, and relentless control. However, a terrifying foe that threatens to destroy them waits in the shadows. Love and survival are the ultimate goals in the sinister romance *Claimed by the Mafia Billionaire*, which is full of passion, power, and danger.

A Withered Flower

Some hearts don't break—they rot slowly in silence. At seventeen, Silas Moriarty believed in gentle words and genuine love—until the world crushed that belief. Rejected by the ones he admired, mocked and called names, and finally betrayed by his first girlfriend in the most humiliating way possible, his heart didn’t just break—it withered. Now, entering his final year of high school on a new campus, he walks the halls not with hope, but with apathy. Love? He’s done with it. Women? Just classmates, nothing more. That’s when Rose Everett comes into his life—a name that echoes across campus like a warning. Gorgeous, infamous, and untouchable, Rose is a gal known for her sharp tongue, bullying streak, and ever-present entourage of jocks. She’s everything Silas swore to avoid. And then her father hires him to be her personal tutor. Forced into close proximity with the very type of girl who once shattered him, Silas braces for the worst. But beneath the layers of makeup, spite, and bravado, he starts to notice the cracks. The moments of silence. The glances no one else catches. Rose isn’t just a queen bee—she’s a mystery wrapped in thorns. As days become weeks and their world narrows to late-night sessions and unspoken truths, Silas finds himself questioning the numbness he's clung to for so long. Can two broken people find something real in a world full of masks? "A Withered Flower" is a slow-burn, emotionally charged romance about pain, disillusionment, and the unexpected ways two damaged souls can collide—and maybe, just maybe, begin to bloom again.

The Dead Rise: Darren’s Nightmare

Darren never thought the apocalypse would come, but if it ever did, he always assumed he’d be the one person ready for it. After all, he’s watched every zombie show, played every survival game, and read every manhwa about the undead. He was wrong. A week before the end of the world, Darren was just a 19-year-old trying to get by in a rough life—his dad gone, his overworked mother raising him and his sister Riley alone, and the weight of protecting his family sitting heavy on his shoulders. But when the world begins to rot from the inside out, Darren awakens a strange ability: every zombie he kills earns him money, and that money can be used to access a mysterious in-head store. From weapons to food to vehicles, even the rare antivirus drug—everything is for sale, if he can survive long enough to afford it. There’s just one problem: this isn’t a game. Zombies are evolving—some are fast, some are smart, and others can tear through concrete like wet paper. Death doesn’t wait. One mistake could cost everything. And no one, not even Darren, is immune to fear, regret, or pain. This is a grounded, brutal apocalypse where every choice matters, where even heroes bleed, and where the moans of the dead will haunt your dreams. The rules have changed. The world is dying. Darren just hopes he can learn fast enough to save the ones he loves… and maybe, one day, lead the survivors who remain. But first—he has to survive the first night.

Rise of the Sword God Successors(A Death Loop Across Space And Time)

My name is Darren and my life is suffering. As I stared at the dead body of the woman I loved more than anything in the world- For the five-hundredth time in a row. On this battlefield where nothing changed. I knew this. But I would continue to struggle against it. For the five hundredth time, I would try again. I grabbed the bastardized equivalent of a long Bowie knife on the ground. Then I shoved it through my skull. I didn't hesitate this time. I always did, but at this point. Pain was a friend that reminded me I could try again. The tapestry of fate is severed. The mind and will forged of steel begins to transform into an unknown material. Unbreakably solid. Fathomlessly immovable. The impossible strength of mind is beginning to solidify. Another push and the gears of change would start to turn again. --- (*Originally Released by me on Royal Road with the name ZAKarpel.) Enjoy!*) This story is extremely fast paced and there is hidden foreshadowing in every chapter. This is a world where hope goes to die. Or it was until someone decided that his imprisonment was enough, and he needed a successor. However, he is not the hero of this story. A series of tortuous events follow that forge a trio of childhood friends into desperation. A successor is born. The cauldron bubbles. The loop starts Anew. But what is their mentor hiding? Things seem to be shades of grey, but some people are just blackened in pitch to their very soul. How can one defeat a calamity that has eaten and repeatedly returns to eat the skills and abilities of multiple worlds? Do the ends justify the means? Follow Darren as his complicated relationship with both time, space, and his Girlfriends (Yes, two women love him, and they will cut a bitch who tries to join in.) Their adventure across time, eventually space, and multiple realities, as things don't go according to plan for anyone. We will find that even in the darkest pits, the light can be found at the top of the highest tower and the moon can be seen in a darkened night. The climb is long. But Darren, Anna, and Jessa will turn the dark world bright again even as the world tries to drag them down into darkness. --- This is inspired by Re:Zero. Worm. Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z. Mother Of Learning and The Perfect Run.  Thank you so much for your inspiration in all of your works, Akira Toriyama you will be missed. Some of my other favorite authors are, Tappei Nagatsuki, Maxime Durand, Domagoj Kurmaić, And Wildbow, My man, Please stop murdering all life on the planet of my entire soul. But yes, Wildbow, you got me into Grimdark and I hate you and love you in equal measure. No, I do not agree that Ward is a thing. --- The planned release schedule Is going to be Bi-Weekly, every Monday and every Friday, but the plans of men are usually derailed by falling rocks, so we might just find out later that my schedule is completely different. Enjoy!!
