Scrubbing Tongue

In the fractured kingdom of Veridion, where thrones are built on lies and loyalty is measured in blood, Kael Varynth—the unacknowledged bastard son of a crumbling noble house—carves his path through a world of smoke and shadow. Denied his birthright and raised in the gutters of Eldervale, Kael masters the art of survival: seduction, subterfuge, and the cold calculus of power. But when his legitimate half-brother dies under mysterious circumstances, Kael seizes the chaos to claw his way into the viper’s nest of Veridion’s aristocracy. The Hollow King rots on his obsidian throne, and three factions vie to control the dying realm: The Dawn Pact, zealots who preach purity while hoarding secrets. The Shadow Magnates, merchant lords who trade gold for souls. The Bloodsworn, fanatics resurrecting an ancient prophecy of “purifying flame.” Kael plays all sides, exploiting their greed and dogma. He manipulates his drunken father, Lord Cedran, into becoming a pawn; seduces Mira, a razor-tongued tavern wench with ties to rival House Kaelthar; and bargains with Seraphine, a Dawn Pact operative whose faith masks a thirst for vengeance. But his greatest weapon is his mind—a talent for turning enemies against one another, leaving them to bleed out while he claims their spoils. When Kael uncovers a plot to control the Iron Pass, the kingdom’s lifeline of trade and secrets, he ignites a proxy war between the Bloodsworn and House Kaelthar. Yet shadows from his past resurface: a hooded woman with a dagger’s smile, a childhood scar that burns in the presence of flame, and whispers that the Bloodsworn’s new prophet knows his true name. As alliances fracture and cities burn, Kael must decide whether to crown himself king of the ashes or be consumed by the inferno he’s unleashed. But in Veridion, trust is a currency no one can afford—not even the Bastard of Varynth. Themes: Ambition vs. Identity, The Corruption of Power, The Cost of Survival Tone: Gritty, suspenseful, morally gray, with visceral political machinations and simmering tension. Series Arc: A sprawling saga of betrayal, war, and twisted desire, where every victory demands a sacrifice, and the line between hero and villain is written in ash. Let me know if you’d like to adjust the tone, focus, or key plot points!

The circle held its breath as Damon’s challenge hung in the air, heavy with tension. His voice was light, but his words dripped with provocation. “Xavier, would you rather have the undivided attention of a mysterious person for the rest of the night… or get your dream car?” Xavier’s smirk sharpened, his eyes gleaming with something far more dangerous than amusement. “I choose the first,” he said, his gaze locking onto Kamsi. Her heart stuttered, her pulse quickening under the weight of his stare. Damon’s grin widened. “Then seduce someone here. Fifteen seconds. No touch. No explicit words. Just your charm.” The air grew thick, crackling with anticipation. The room leaned in as Xavier rose slowly, like a predator stalking its prey. His eyes never wavered from Kamsi, who could feel her resolve slipping under his relentless focus. She told herself it was just a game. But the way he moved, the way his presence engulfed her, made her wonder: What happens when a game stops being a game? When Kamsi Chibuike arrived in Washington, D.C., she craved a fresh start—a place where she could blend into the background and escape her past. But blending in was impossible once she crossed paths with Xavier Alastair, the untouchable bully who ruled Washington DC International School with a smirk that promised trouble. Their first encounter left her humiliated, furious… and unforgettable in his eyes. Xavier thrives on power, his sharp tongue and devilish charm keeping everyone at arm’s length. Yet, Kamsi’s defiance sparks something in him—something he can’t ignore. She becomes his favorite target, their clashes more intense with each encounter. But the more they push each other, the more Kamsi senses that beneath Xavier’s cruelty lies something broken, something real. What starts as a battle of wills turns into a dangerous game of attraction, where every insult masks a deeper truth and every glance threatens to ignite something uncontrollable. As Kamsi is drawn into Xavier’s chaotic world, she realizes that he isn’t just the school’s bully—he’s a storm threatening to tear through everything she thought she knew. The Bully’s Redemption is a gripping, tension-filled story of fierce enemies, forbidden desires, and the thin line between hate and passion. In a world where games can become deadly, and redemption seems impossible, Kamsi and Xavier must decide: Will they destroy each other, or will they find salvation in the chaos?

[Warning: Contains Mature Content] "Beware of the tongue of a wicked woman. For it may tell a lie that would slay the world." Eighteen-Year-old rejected, wolfless and blind Zina is summoned to the capital to tell a vision for the ruthless and feared Alpha King of the North notoriously known as ‘The King Who Crowned Himself’. The result of Zina’s ‘false’ vision has the Alpha Prince and future Alpha Supreme, Daemon, banished from the capital to fight wars at the borders where only death awaits him in the hands of the famed Arising Rogues, and the even more famed Deformed. But Daemon survives fire, blood and claw, and not only does he survive, but six years later, he is back as Alpha Supreme, driven by vengeance against those who brought him down. Starting from his cunny siblings, to the eighteen-year old girl now twenty-four who spelt his destiny with just mere words, Daemon vows to leave no one unscathed. However Zina is well aware of her own treachery. Now the Theta to the same powerful werewolf house she told the dangerous lie against, and having tasted the bitter pill of betrayal from the very people she told the dangerous lie for, she is unwilling to resign to her fate just yet. But how do you melt the heart of a man that you once ruined? And how do you destroy a woman loved by all the common people, and perhaps, even the gods? Daemon will learn the hard way that not all vengeance can be taken, and not all debts can be collected. Secrets abound, the Deformed Werewolves are set to rise, and a rare chance at second mating befalls the two most unusual people. And now, one thing has become for sure—Daemon must first defeat the enemy outside, before he can truly confront her, who has become the enemy of his heart. **** Zina's back pressed against the wall as a taut body pinned her, their warmth mingling together. Four years of deadly anticipation had culminated into that very moment. His whispers caressed her ear, sending shivers that had nothing to do with the chill in the air down her spine. “Since you see visions so well, tell me Theta of my house, do you see the day you will die?” His breath ghosted over her skin, reminding her of a debt to be collected. Swallowing and maintaining a tight grip on her staff despite the body that burned against hers, she answered firmly. “I am afraid the gods haven’t shown me yet.” The man over her smiled shrewdly. His lips grazed her ear, his hot breath sending waves of sensation. “I believe in all of the names I have been called, one of them is god. So let me tell you that which you do not know… “…today is the day you will die.”

When Lu Huang woke up as Lidia—the villainess of a cringe-worthy romance novel—she was determined not to let the story play out like the dumpster fire it was written to be. Nope. Dying at the hands of the Alpha King after being falsely accused, publicly humiliated, and manipulated into madness? Yeah, that’s not on her to-do list. Armed with a sharp tongue that could flay egos, the street smarts of a broke college grad, and the petty audacity of someone with nothing left to lose, Lidia decides she was ripping up the script. Holier-than-thou saintesses? Screw ’em. Self-righteous alphas? They can eat dirt. If this world insists on casting her as the villain, she’s going to own it—on her terms. One chaotic scheme at a time, Lidia’s ready to rewrite her fate—and if she has to break a few rules (and maybe some noses) to do it, so be it. Villainesses don’t play nice, and Lidia is just getting started.

In the Azure Phoenix Realm, Xu Qi, a normal telemarketer on Earth, found himself transmigrated into a body with a similar name as him. However, he found out that he had nothing of the usual golden finger or system that he often read in webnovels.

With words as his tool, he carefully navigates the competitive world of cultivation.

As 21 years old Noah wakes up after his attempted suicide, he find out that he has transmigrated into the body of 14 years old Vasilisa, a young noble afflicted with the [Muddy Tongue] status effect preventing them from talking properly and thus using magic. Because of the many misconceptions linked to that status, he is now even more scorned and hated than he was in his previous life. Additionally, he is now in a girl's body—something he finds harder to adapts to than he would have thought at first. Thankfully, he soon find himself the ability to see "the blue", an ability allowing him to pull off critical hits at will. Will this ability allow him to make his way into this strange new world and prevent the ashes of war with demons to reinites themselves? Only the future can tell. ––– W.N : Only the future, huh ? XD Well, I am the author, the one who wrote this thing and this really formulaïc synopsis. The story, I hope, is anything but that, but you will be the judge there. Also, if subjects like suicide and depression makes you feel uncomfortable, maybe you shouldn't read this. The protagonist is not written to be the most positive person in the world and thr world is equally bleak. Expect a lot of violence as I think it somewhat make sense in a world obeying those rules. Also again, I will use game's terminologies without necessarily explaining them in details. Most explanations will be there to highlight how this universe's game mechanics differ from the usual ones. Will the hero/heroine, be OP ? Dunno. I would rather not and their ability isn't so rare to be fair. I have no idea if the main character should be considered a male or a female which is perfect. That's why it a male-lead book with the yuri (girl's love) tag. Now then, I only intended this to be a warning but I ended up rambling. Thank you for reading up until this point and I hope you will enjoy the book. X-)

What’s it to you?” Without waiting for the reporter to answer, he arrogantly continued, “Even if you have an opinion, keep it to yourself. My woman, Gu Jiangnian’s woman, is not subject to your criticism.”

"Hate was the only thing between us—until it wasn’t." -ISLA- Revenge is my birthright. Ever since the fire that claimed my brother and shattered my family, I’ve rebuilt the Moreau empire from the ashes. But every brick I’ve laid, every deal I’ve struck, has come with one goal in mind: uncovering the truth behind that night. Ciaran Valente is the man I’ve hated since I learned how to hate. Infuriating, cruel, and too clever for his own good, he thrives in darkness, just like I do. But when the ghosts of my past tie his family to my brother’s death, my hatred becomes the least dangerous thing between us. Because Ciaran doesn’t just step into my world—he consumes it. He sees through my armor, breaks down my defenses, and dares to turn my pain into something far more dangerous than vengeance: desire. But love doesn’t exist for people like us. Only power. Only lies. And when the masks come off, one truth will destroy us both. -CIARAN- Isla Moreau is my personal form of torment. Sharp-tongued, calculating, and as untouchable as ice. I’ve craved breaking her for years—not just to prove I could, but because there’s nothing more tempting than watching a queen fall. But Isla isn’t a game. She’s fire wrapped in steel, and she hides secrets even darker than my own. When the past collides with the present, revealing the cracks in our perfect façades, I discover something I didn’t think I was capable of: obsession. She consumes me—mind, body, and soul. But while I want to own her, she wants vengeance. While I crave her surrender, she wants the truth. And in the end, we’re not just enemies. We’re fated to ruin each other.

It was so sudden, and so ordinary, Jack can't feel his survival mode kicked in the moment he transported. But even in this alien land, Jack did not abandon his fanatism over food. Though, there's one problem. "What is this?! No salt, no pepper, the meat were even still raw!!!" Nothing could satisfy his modern tongue. And so, once again, he forced to cook for himself. And yet, "There's no refrigerator... no oven... no dry agers... h-how could I cook MY food?!" The absence of modern kitchen appliance has made him depressed.

Ye'r the real deal, I thought yer not. Lads! I challenge you!!" "... please stop making a ruckus, you'll scare my livestocks. And also, I refuse. I'm a cook, not a fighting lunatic." "I see. You're definitely strong. Huhu, I like you. Join me. I'll give your far better treatment than other organization. I promise in the name of Snow White." "But I'm just a cook, Miss..." No matter how hard he told everyone, they all never buy the truth. That he is just a cook. Leave with no choice, Jack starts to appear in the world despite his own quarantine. And there's only two things he's famous for. His rumored strength, and his spell. "But I'm a cook?!!"

“What's done is done! Let's just forget it!” He said and acted nonchalantly, even though he was cowering in fear because something was telling him that the stranger in front of him didn't intend to let go. The man's frown increases and Hayden swears that the temperature in the room increases multiple times. After winning over his heart and stealing his first, this boy wanted to avoid responsibility, which made Zenos annoyed. “You want to run away from me?” He asked in annoyance, and suddenly Hayden found himself under the man without even knowing how. “I'm just…” Hayden wasn't able to finish his words before he was domineeringly kissed by the stranger. Zenos used his left hand to pin Hayden's hand on top of Hayden's head effortlessly. Hayden tried to struggle and blocked the stranger's tongue from dominating his mouth by pressing his lips against each other stubbornly, but the man unexpectedly bit Hayden's bottom lips, making Hayden yelp in pain. The man used that chance to clean all the taste of strawberries in Hayden's mouth, while his right hand continued to stroke Hayden's body wantonly. When Hayden was starting to go dizzy due to shortness of breath, he was released by the man's assault. He breathed in and out rapidly and thanked heaven for the chance to live again. “You can't run away from me… You are mine” Zenos growled into Hayden's neck possessively. Hayden felt a shiver run through his spine after hearing the stranger's words. His breath hitched as the man licked his earlobe and kissed his neck with extreme familiarity, domineeringly. “Mine,” the stranger proclaimed again. The stranger gave a low curse word and rolled off Hayden's shivering sensitive body, “I'll spare you because you're still in pain. You won't be as lucky next time” he said and lifted Hayden's chin to peck him one more time while Hayden stared dumbfounded.

She falls for Uche, her cousin brother's best friend, without even knowing. Follow Julie through her first attempt at love. ... I watched him as he stood there, leaning on the bridge's railing and eating ice cream. The breeze wasn't disturbing his hair today because he had parked it all backwards, he looked cute, I smiled drawing in some breath, satisfied with how today was going. "What?" I heard him ask taking me off my thoughts. "Huh?" "You were smiling." "Oh. I was...." "Can I kiss you?" He asked looking at my lips. "Here?" I asked now, my heart beating hard against my chest, our first kiss could happen now. "Yeah?" He nodded, I could see his Adam's apple go up and down as he swallowed, I bit my lips, nervously. I smiled approvingly, almost getting up from the bench where I sat. "No sit." He said coming closer to sit next to me. The bench was quite small so we were so close to each other. He leaned in and I could smell him more the closer he got to my face. His lips were now inches away from mine and the moment they touched I closed my eyes, I didn't know why but I did.

With no memories, no purpose, and no choice, he’s sent to a collapsing world, ravaged by corrupt monsters and governed by incomprehensible chaos. His mission: become a hero. The problem is, Daion isn’t chosen, part of some glorious prophecy, or even the first to try. In fact, it seems the gods are treating "heroes" like disposable pawns in a much larger game.

Between overwhelming beasts, the impossible-to-master omega energy, and gods playing with mortal lives as if they were toys, Daion isn’t just fighting for survival—he’s struggling to figure out what it really means to be a "hero" in a game he never wanted to play.

The creature tilted its head and chirped again, louder this time. It darted forward, brushing against his leg. “Okay, no. Boundaries! Haven’t you ever heard of personal space?” Changra yelped, stumbling back and nearly tripping over a glowing mushroom. The creature trilled happily, circling him with what seemed like the world's most confident caterpillar swagger. Changra sighed, rubbing his temples. Great.

The brown curls, almost black due to being wet, stuck to it, gave such an alluring contrast to her skin that seemed to glow in the moonlight. She turned, causing her ample breast to come into view. A single droplet hung precariously from a pebbled nipple. Was his eyesight always this sharp? It appeared like a pearl, begging to be licked away.
