MR RUTHLESS AND HIS RUTHLESS CAPTIVE

But as calm as it seems on the top, everything is in turmoil on the inside. Living through endless assassination attempts is one thing and paying debts are another. "This is the last time. Never again will I slave away paying other people's debts." Han Ziyou swears to herself. However her promise to herself is soon shattered as a twisted plot throws her into the courts of a man too ruthless that even the devil would be put to shame. Long Feng Jian. He's cold, twisted, ruthless and yet still so devilishly charming and he is out to collect debts. What can Han Ziyou do to defend herself against this man that now stalks her like a shadow. In terms of money, power and influence, she can't compare. Trapped as a captive once more repaying unknown debts. They're both ruthless and unwilling to bend. How can there be peace between such clashing personalities? No one is willing to bend easily. No one wants to lower their walls first. But what can be done when physical desire overpowers all else. And just as peace is reached, dark pasts and conflicts rage a storm. Join the two as they battle with each other and the world.

Note: (Disclaimer at end of abstract). Synopsis: "In the heart of the boundless Phantom Continent, rests a cursed region smack in the centre of all that is known, aptly named as the Central Region. A domain shrouded in perpetual gloom, despair clings to every shadow and its sole purpose seems to be crushing the souls and dreams of the unfortunate souls that take shelter upon its land. Life is a fight for Existence and Reality however cruel, is alas never what it seems to be. Whispers of precious ore, ancient artefacts and ruins of ancient civilisations only lead to ruin - factions descend to lay claim to these scraps like vultures, blades quench the thirst of the land with rivers of fire, which mirror the stars from afar that flicker in isolation with an insatiable desire. Amongst the chaotic lands, a tale starts. An adventure, a mistake, a ghost, a foreigner, a world, many worlds, alliances, betrayals, intertwined fates and dangers fraught at every corner. A protagonist that isekai's into a still living being in an earnest bid to grow stronger and a pitiful soul that longs for what was once share a mysterious bond. Destiny is calling, the line between the living and dead is blurred, the powerful shape Reality, however amongst this rollercoaster of events, the shadows vie for their own nefarious purposes, for the shadows are always watching. As if life wasn't a misery as it were, it hit Zuck Borris with the roll of a die - the odds were never in his favour. Firstly, a stranger gave him the old boot - throwing his soul out to the dogs in the streets. Then a mysterious voice started talking to him. Yet it didn't seem to be doing him any favours in reclaiming his flesh and bones. Meanwhile that backstabbing fiend didn't even notice his existence and already seemed to be bringing trouble to his body. Roland, however, was as calm as the ocean bed. Some ignorant fools seemed to be scheming against him. Ever since he answered that damn call, his life seemed to become more troublesome. However, perhaps there was some part of him that smirked at this opportunity, to gain control over his life with enough strength to face all that may come his way. Who protects this Reality, that Reality and everything in between? Can a mortal man spit upon the immortal obstacle that tightens its grasp to crush all beneath it? Can the rivers burn what they touch as the worlds collide and the sun is all but lost? Are answers always to be sought? Turn that chapter if you so dare..."

The Throne is Yours, The World is Mine

Betrayed. Executed. Forgotten. Emilia Sylvester, the once-feared vampire queen, was dethroned by her husband, King Darius Lysander, for his sweet and seemingly innocent half-blood mistress after the victorious war. Locked in a dungeon for fifty years with her legs cut off, Emilia thought death would be her only release. But when she opens her eyes after the brutal execution, she’s back at that grand ball, the very night her husband demanded a divorce to marry the woman who ruined her. “Because of your callous attitude, our marriage is over. I intend to take Rosalia as my bride.” Divorce was rare in vampire society, especially among the royal bloodlines. For a prince to divorce his wife and take a hybrid vampire, a half-blood, as his queen? It was scandal of the highest order. But Emilia was no longer his obedient pawn. “If that is your will, my prince,” she said, her voice calm and composed, “then who am I to stand in your way?” This time, Emilia has no intention of fighting for a war that only brought her pain. Let the half-blood Rosalia and Darius deal with the backstabbing court and the weight of the vampire kind on the brink of chaos. Emilia has better plans. She’s done playing by anyone else’s rules. Walking away from the vampires and into the territory of the werewolves, Emilia discovers she’s far from powerless. As a former peace negotiator, she knows how to handle wolves, especially the dangerous alphas, but she never expected them to be so eager to handle her. This time, she won’t choose love anymore. Once is enough.

Leo Carter: The Accidental Time Traveler of Ancient Rome

Leo Carter is just your average 21st-century English major—slightly disorganized, perpetually late, and hopelessly hooked on the dramatic, old-school world of Shakespeare. But when a late-night study session with Julius Caesar unexpectedly turns into an accidental trip through time, Leo finds himself not in a college dorm, but smack-dab in the heart of ancient Rome. To make matters worse, Leo isn't just a tourist; he's holding a mysterious, glowing book that seems to pulse with a life of its own and whispers secrets that no modern-day student should ever know. Cue the eye-rolls from history buffs everywhere: Leo Carter, with his sneakers and too-tight jeans, is now the unlikely center of attention in a world full of toga-wearing senators, opportunistic politicians, and more backstabbing than a high school cafeteria. With the help of Gaius, a sharp-tongued scholar who suspects Leo's arrival is part of a bigger picture, Leo must navigate the bustling city streets, avoid unwanted attention from the guard, and figure out why his 21st-century self is now entangled in a centuries-old power struggle. All the while, he’s juggling his modern sensibilities with the unexpected—and often absurd—realities of life in ancient Rome, including questionable hygiene, impromptu gladiator fights, and more than one ill-timed “Et tu, Brute?” moment. As if that wasn't enough, there’s the book: a relic that some seek to control and others to destroy. With his own life on the line, Leo will have to learn the real lessons of ambition, loyalty, and how to properly make an entrance when surrounded by a crowd of toga-clad onlookers. And he might just find that some things—whether ancient or modern—are more timeless than they seem.

I Became The Pope, Now What?

Johnathan, an old man with an extraordinary past but an ordinary end, gets reincarnated in a dark fantasy world full of magic, darkness, and mysteries furled. However, he committed a grave blunder by taking the fiction he had read as a reference. Reborn as a baby, he hoped to be deemed gifted by speaking early. One thing led to another, and tragedy struck. The villagers declared him a demon-possessed and called the church. Johnathan, now known as Sylvester Maximilian, realized that he had messed up. When the church's inquisitors came to judge him and burn him on a pyre. As a last resort and to welcome his soon to arrive second death, he started chanting holy hymns as his last breath. Overwhelmed, they kneeled, thinking he was a messenger of Solis. From there, the story of how Sylvester Maximilian rose through the ranks to sit at the top began. But his life won't be ordinary, as he uses his cunning and the tag of 'God's favored' to his advantage. Fighting treachery, unearthing secret plots and world mysteries, facing the darkness around him and creating his place in history, engraving his name in the annals to be forever remembered as the—Immortal Pope, The Young. [A/N: To not mislead you, the novel's name does not mean he instantly becomes the Pope from the start. The story will follow the life of MC. Though he will become the Pope at a pretty young age. 40% of the novel will be based around MC fighting to sit on the supreme throne. If you enjoy world building and lore building, then you will like this story.] ____________ ***Main Tags: FANTASY, ADVENTURE, MAGIC, DARK, STRONG MC(Weak at the start because he's a baby. Not an instant OP though.), WHOLESOME, COMEDY, KINGDOM BUILDING. MENTALLY OLD MC, Politics, Backstabbing, World Building.*** [WARNING: MC will not go around saving everyone. Absolutely not if it puts him in danger. But if he can save someone using his status or position in the church, he will. He will kill innocent people if he has to. MC is not crazy, cynical, or unsociable. The world at some times may seem very DARK.] _____________ [DISCLAIMER] The religion will be fake. I won't make it similar to those existing in our world not to trigger anyone. However, the Church terminologies and designations may feel identical as they are simple vocabulary words. Again, everything you read in this novel is fictional and has no relation to our world. I hope you enjoy my work.

Immortal Ice Priestess: Reborn As A Fire Summoner In A Witches' World

Disclaimer: Please be advised, that this fantasy book contains explicit depictions of blood and gore. It also has intense visual portrayals of deep, intimate scenes. Reader discretion is fully advised! [Maturity Rating: 18+] After having her soul translocated into the body of a young girl, Tharaessa, who was an incomparably powerful woman that could control ice and was both evil and cruel, will try to adapt to her new young form, all while trying to live a beautiful new life in a vast new world that is controlled from the shadows by immensely powerful witches and wizards—diabolical and insanely vicious people that possess unmatched, vast enchanting powers and desperately, ardently lusted after more power and wealth. With her new set of astounding abilities being Fire Summoning, Corrosion Manipulation, Draconian Roar, Luminous Gale-Force Wings of Might, Fiendbeast Evocation, amongst others, Tharaessa will strive to reclaim the exceptional, glorious height from which she fell. An illustrious height of power, authority, and dazzling glory that no one in her former universe could reach, and from which she could look down with contempt upon all things. But, would she be able to truly achieve this? As this was a world where potent and formidable, unique magical abilities were as common as the sands on the ground, and every territorial region was ruled by a large, shadowy, clandestine coven of witches and wizards who wanted everything under their complete grasp and control. Leaving the world stage and going down to the classroom level—the present reality that she unexpectedly found herself in, would she able to strive in an institute where certain envious and adversarial groups of powerful teenage girls and boys heavily disliked and detested her for her talents, charm, blessings, and stupendous ancient inheritances? And will do anything to bring about her inglorious and utterly shameful downfall, including mean and brutal annihilative acts secretly carried out against her by dreadful and outstanding veteran assassins and super-rank magical killers? Accompany Tharaessa—a former dreadfully bane, cruel, and malevolent user of ice in her persistent and unrelenting arduous journey to the peak of power and glory. In her absolutely difficult climb to this realm of power where she will exist without an equal, she will contend with fierce magical foes and monstrously talented adversaries who will try to stop her from achieving her sole objective of becoming a grand powerhouse, or a great and fearsome phenomenal sovereign that will exude immense, captivating glory and bathe all in her overwhelming, blinding brilliance. She will face and endure a lot, including betrayals, blackmails, backstabbing, and brutal near-death experiences on many occasions by groups of furious, vengeful, and overbearing relentless witches and wizards who will emerge in all their splendidness and devilish majesty from the shadows because of her. But she will take charge of these unending vicious and annihilatory events and turn them into something that will awaken something more profound, special, and extraordinary within her, giving her the ability to grasp more control over own destiny and fate! And now a changed person, she will try to protect innocent people from harm, and from the clutches of the cruel, sinister ones, a complete reversal of her previous dark and baleful personality that wickedly exercised the unbridled killing and massacring of good people that just wanted a cheerful, meaningful life. To know where the story ends, add to your library and find out. And if you have a question about the story, you can drop it in the comment section of the chapters. Thanks! NB: This narrative entwines epic, jaw-dropping battles, mind-blowing actions, thrilling suspense, daring spirited adventures, romance (both straight and girl-to-girl intimacy), allegiance, camaraderie, teamwork, tragedy, and many other elements. It promises to be an exciting read.
