The man was her ex brother in law... And against her better judgment, she is attracted to this bad boy... But as Melanie tried to make sense of the changes, she discovered there was more going on than she ever imagined. Had both brothers loved really fallen in love with her? Or was she just a pawn in a bigger game? excerpt Since he had already been leaning against the table, he simply slid onto it, and with one swift motion, he hooked his boot around the leg of her chair and pulled it—pulled her—closer.The sudden movement made her jolt slightly, and when she looked up or rather when she looked ahead, she found herself staring directly at the zipper of his jeans... She looked up then and met his gaze. He caught her chin," Would you like to check if I am only pretending, sweet melon?"Melanie stiffened. And then pushed back her chair suddenly, so that Adam almost lost his balance, as she stood up. Before he could balance himself, she placed her hand on his shoulder, her fingers brushing against his neck.  Adam stiffened, his eyes glittering as he waited to see what she would do next. And she, of course surprised him as her other hand, slowly settled on the inside of his thigh. And then, the hand on his shoulder started to move. Her fingers tracing the side of his neck before lifting as she shot a glance to the corner of his mouth. The little piece of metal glinting there. She flicked at it lightly, barely a touch, but Adam could feel the heat all over his body, as she leaned in close, her lips barely a few centimetres away...so that they could both feel each other's breaths… She smiled slowly then. "Careful, Adam," she murmured, her voice playful, but carrying the unmistakable edge of a challenge. "Keep pushing, and I just might call your bluff."

--- A HUNTER KARMA By 11spartan_star --- The Origin of Karma In his first life, Jimmy Martin was a fearless Jamaican hunter, renowned across his land for his unmatched skill in tracking and killing the most dangerous animals. His pride in his abilities grew over the years, but so did the trail of blood he left behind. He hunted without mercy, believing himself to be untouchable. That belief ended the day his life was taken—struck down by the combined attack of a bear and a honey badger. But Jimmy’s story did not end with death. In the void between life and the afterlife, he encountered a mysterious god. The god’s voice echoed coldly in the darkness: > “In your past life, you took lives for sport. Now, every life will hunt you in return. This… is your karma.” Jimmy was reborn in a savage, untamed world—not as a man, but as the very animal that contributed to his death: a honey badger. His human identity stripped away, his new name became Karma. --- The Curse of Karma As punishment, Karma was bound to an unbreakable curse: Every human he meets will instinctively try to kill him. Even the kind-hearted cannot resist the primal urge to hunt him. To humans, Karma is nothing more than a demon beast that must be destroyed. But beasts, monsters, and the wild see him differently. Some fear him. Others respect him. A few may even follow him. Karma now walks a brutal path where he is no longer the hunter—but the hunted. --- The Demon’s Bargain During his desperate struggle for survival, Karma encounters a dying demon god. The demon makes him a forbidden offer: > “Drink my blood. Eat my flesh. Devour my five hearts. Fulfill two of my dying wishes… And I shall grant you power… and perhaps, the chance to free yourself.” The demon promises Karma strength beyond imagination. But in exchange, Karma must: Consume the demon’s blood, flesh, and five hearts. Fulfill two dangerous wishes that the demon could not complete before his death. Whether Karma accepts this power or finds another way is a choice that will shape his fate—and possibly the fate of the entire world. --- Core Themes of the Story Survival: Karma has no system, no stats, no cheats—only raw instinct, pain, and brutal experience. Revenge and Redemption: Can Karma break the cycle of violence he once embraced? Fate vs. Free Will: Is Karma forever trapped by the curse, or can he forge his own destiny? Beast vs. Humanity: Will Karma lose his human soul and fully become the beast he now is? --- The Legend Begins… Jimmy Martin was once the hunter. Karma is now the hunted. His fight for survival begins now. ---

The story began when Lucifer grew bored. This led him to decide to create a superior race to his father's, for his own entertainment. This race would surpass humans in every aspect, but there were still limitations to what he could achieve. For instance, he couldn't deceive the sun, a natural force belonging to his father, God. He desired a race that could outwit and behave like humans in order to deceive his father's masterpiece, but he couldn't create it in the same way as his father. Therefore, he opted for a shortcut - creating a disease known as vampirism. The main character becomes the first vampire, obtaining the blessing from Lucifer himself. In the year 646 A.D. in a small village in The Frankish Kingdom, a young albino girl named Carmilla lived in fear for her life. In those dark ages, her unique appearance meant almost certain death. Confined to the basement of her house, she had never seen the world beyond its walls. Her parents kept her in chains, showing her no love or kindness, except for her sister Anna, who was her only source of comfort and care. However, tragedy struck when fate cruelly took Anna away. Alone and desperate, Carmilla prayed for salvation, and in her darkest moment, an unexpected blessing came from the Seraphim Lucifer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In my novel, Carmilla will embark on a journey through different time periods, facing great dangers along the way. She may encounter historical figures such as Vlad The Impaler, visit the Lancaster duchess, and possibly even travel to Brazil. The story will be filled with numerous historical events, some of which will be altered while others may not occur at all. The supernatural world will be rich with a variety of folklore from real life, some of which I may create myself. Elements such as werewolves, sorcery, faith bearers, pagan gods, and more will be included. I draw inspiration from real world legends and events, and will also introduce some original creations of my own. Many of the vampire characters in the story will be influenced by existing vampire literature, such as Castlevania, Vampire: The Masquerade, Count Dracula, and others.

At thirty, Mia awakens in the world of a tragic novel, inhabiting the body of the infamous younger daughter of a powerful tycoon family.
