Faerie has always been an outsider, growing up under the weight of her father’s imprisonment for a crime he didn’t commit. Raised by her single mother, she learned early on that trust is a luxury she couldn’t afford. For years, she sought solace in books, burying herself in her studies to escape the whispers of her father’s alleged crime. But beneath her quiet demeanor lies a steely determination for revenge—she won’t rest until she clears her father's name and brings down those who wronged her family.

It's a chance to infiltrate the very society that turned its back on her family, and maybe, find the truth she’s been searching for.

Brielle is one of the few female hunters at the association. Dealing with useless trainees every six months, she has a low tolerance for bullshit. She no longer believes in love, and nothing will change her mind after what happened to her. She believes that the only thing she can love and trust is her job, where she helps protect the defenceless by killing those who use their abilities to get everything they want. Hunting is a thrill that she enjoys more than life itself. Having a minimalist life, the only thing at home she cherishes is her painting. A vampire that refuses to choose a partner for his sister. Ketan will do anything to protect his loved ones, even kill those that threaten his livelihood. Usually, he is calm, gentle, and collected. He stays hidden away from everyone when he does not want anything to do with individuals until the day he is captured and locked away in a dungeon. After that moment, his life changed for good. Cursing the blood that he drinks, Ketan fights against the pull of drinking more blood from the person that donated the blood. An Excerpt from the book: Brielle throws her arms around Ketan’s neck. “I was so worried about you. I did not know what you were going to do or if you would survive.” Ketan smiled and accepted her hug. “I am sorry for worrying you. I had to do what needed to be done. Besides, I knew that this was going to happen and be as painful as it was.” Brielle starts sobbing in his embrace. “I think that you should take what you need from me, Ketan. You will not be able to stand the bloodlust soon… will you?” Pushing her away before losing control. Ketan moves away from her weakly. “Stay back. I am not in control of myself right now. You should not even be here right now. Leave me alone!” Ketan holds his hand out to stop her from coming closer to him. “I can hear your pulse racing; it’s deafening.” “You were fine a moment ago; now you are you pushing me away, Ketan? I can help you.” Brielle leans down towards him and gently pulls him into her arms. “No, stop. I can’t control myself, and I would never be able to forgive myself if something happened to you. I am not a sedated beast; I lust for every drop of your sweet blood that I hear pumping through your veins, but I must resist. Otherwise, I will harm you in the worst way possible.” Ketan pushes her back and teleports deeper into the cave. “Stay back before I begin to acquire a taste for your blood. It is a deadly thing to tempt fate once again.” Brielle continues to walk into the deep dark cave towards him. “Ketan, I trust you more than I have trusted others. I know that you will not kill me. Just look at how fearful you are right now.” She finally reaches him again. Crying, Ketan grabs her from behind, sits her in his lap. One arm wrapped around her waist, the other in her hair, pulling off the right exposing her neck. Slowly he lowers his lips to her neck, licking the surface testing the flesh. His fangs rest at the hollow of her neck before carefully breaking the skin. He starts to drink her blood deeply, but as he drank, he slowly stopped and lifted his face up, crying while holding Brielle against his body crying. Blood leaking from the bite marks while some drips down his chin. Her body was being held up by Ketan, and her eyes were now closed. Her body seemed lifeless in his arms. She started to slide forward as a deadweight. Ketan catches her and holds her princess style in his lap, rocking back and forth. Crying fresh tears.

Disclaimer: The cover is from AOI OGATA on Pinterest. The flames, I could feel was dying out, so I opened my eyes to see her little hands grasping tightly onto my fist. The last bit of the flames lingered over her hand before dying out as well, then her hands were cold again. My eyes followed her arms to her face. She knelt on the bed with my stretched legs between hers. She still wore the same clothes she had on when she appeared in my hospital room.  Her large, dark eyes were on me, but I couldn't tell what emotion or expression they held. She sat then and pulled my fist to her face. "You didn't respond when I called you earlier. What's going on?" I asked her calmly, but inwardly doubted she'd answer me. She inhaled deeply with my fist still to her nose like she wanted to absorb its fragrance if it had any. She just kept her eyes focused on my hand. "You were about to do it again. The backlash could've been bad. ," she pointed out flatly. Even though she didn't sound too pleased, her wonderful voice was still pleasing to the ear. "You told me we'd do it, not you." "I have to get stronger, Lily." She now looked at me. "But what about the pain? We agreed that I would help you."

Hell is much creepier than you think. Forget the flames, the demonized figure, the multitude of the damned. Beneath the underworld's scorched surface, Hell boasted a governance of unholy precision. They reveled in their flawless hirerachy and their arrogance, fuelled by eons of self-admiration, finally boiled over. Crawling forth in their thousands to unleash total annihilation upon their eternal adversary; earth. Era who has seen what it is like to suffer in the hands of the possessed, picked up the reigns of exorcism which was currently regarded as Earth's most thriving business. Exorcism was second to the need of food and water. It was more lucrative than the entertainment industry and heavily influenced by earth's leaders. He was a blend of contradictions; adorable and perlious, captivating and enigmatic. His good looks made him a renowned figure in both realms, while his mastery of stealth earned him a reputation as a cunning and elusive presence. He believed if humans knew the truth, no one would be poor enough to serve the rich. An arranged marriage brought them to be. The need to stop exorcism and the desire to wipe out demons, bringing mankind healing brought them closer and further apart. But what none saw coming was the possibility of a greater evil than Azrael, demonic manifestations, and several lives lost in the name of revealing the truth. |On hold for now and there are future plans for continuation soon|

Theodore thought as he opened his little eyes to what he assumes to be one of his parents who is dropping him off on the doorstep of a church at what seemed to be in the middle of nowhere, ---a few hours ago ago--- Theodore was like any other normal person: had a family, had dreams, filled with ambitiouns, liked games, sometimes goes outside, has preferences, filled with desire, and of course went through a difficult time in his life, he was just as normal as the average person is. but one thing he is different from others is that he likes roasting people online especially the rich, he loves making fake accounts just to meme people, judge thier preferences and give rating for their every day (unnecessary) objects, he even makes money from it by making videos about how stupid some rich people are. But that led him to his death when he was kidnapped by a rich woman, who he had made fun of... '???'

Allen came to a new Earth. He completely became confused as to why something like that happened to him. But also after getting all the memories of the previous Allen, he became sure that this Earth was also the same as his previous Earth. But at the same time after getting all the memory, he could tell the previous Allen was really a miserable child. First of all, he is an orphan who does not have any kind of protection from his parents, and also because he is weak he is getting bullied every day in his school.  You can say he is the punching bag of those school bullies.

But it looks like he has a different fate because finally, he got the golden finger. After starting the golden finger he already gets to know that this is a system that can help him to create a Dungeon. Naturally in those Dungeons, he will face Monsters and after killing the Monsters he could also become powerful.  So naturally from then, he decided to become powerful and change his life. On the other hand, you can say he never thought the Earth that he previously thought was normal and also had supernatural things present. Normal people never had the chance to get to know about all those things but as he began to get powerful he also began to get involved in those supernatural things.  He came to understand that Monsters are also present on Earth. But fortunately, the Warriors killed those Monsters so because of this those normal people did not have any idea about those Monsters. Naturally, because he is also getting powerful he is also involving himself in those dangers where he could lose his life anytime. He also understood that the Earth was divided into two parts; he was just living in the normal part. So from then, you can say the dangerous adventure of Allen gets started.  He will use his system to become the most powerful human. But will he be able to do that while facing those kinds of dangers that could easily take his life?  ________________________ Hey guys, I hope you will like this novel. I am not good at English.

After the tragic misfortune she faced Aarnda decided to get any job she could find and later on regrets it dearly

“I will join the army.” A bold declaration, perhaps one of patriotism and youthful ambition. But when the words come from the youngest daughter of one of the city's wealthiest families, they become a storm that disrupts a world of privilege and comfort. Xu Jin Lin was the pampered princess of her household, a life sheltered by luxury and adoration. With three protective brothers and a father who ruled the business world, she never knew hardship. Yet, at just 17, she defied them all, leaving behind her gilded life to embrace the trials of the military—something no one expected, nor understood. While her family believed she was studying abroad, she silently built herself anew in the harsh, grueling reality of the army. Five years later, she returns to the city she left behind—her once-carefree world of opulence replaced by secrets, strength, and scars she refuses to speak of. What happened during those five years? What sacrifices shaped the woman she’s become? As she navigates the challenges of reintegration, whispers follow her every step. Her past missions are locked away in classified files, her future riddled with questions. Can Xu Jin Lin reconcile the girl she used to be with the soldier she’s become? Or will the call of her former life—and the expectations of her family—pull her back into the golden cage she fought so hard to escape?
