Uma Noite Selvagem

Lucinda Perry, uma reclusa social e workaholic, faz uma promessa a si mesma de se soltar no seu vigésimo quinto aniversário e até mesmo conseguir uma noite de amor casual se ela conseguir a tão esperada promoção no trabalho. Poucos dias antes do seu vigésimo quinto aniversário, ela é promovida para uma posição superior e para a sede em outra cidade. Tendo que passar a noite do seu aniversário em uma nova cidade, ela vai à boate onde conhece um belo desconhecido, Thomas Hank, que se oferece para ser seu caso de uma noite depois de ver sua lista de desafios a cumprir, que incluía ter uma noite de amor casual. Thomas Hank, depois de ter sido usado por várias mulheres no passado, está determinado a conquistar a mulher dos seus sonhos que o amaria por ele mesmo e não por sua riqueza. Então, quando ele conhece a fofa e ingênua Lucinda Perry na boate, ele decide esconder sua verdadeira identidade dela e descobrir se ela valia a pena. ***Trecho*** O que é mais divertido do que um personagem secundário louco? Diga olá à Sonia e ao Bryan. O coração de Sonia parou de bater por um segundo e, em seguida, diferentes pensamentos começaram a voar em sua cabeça naquele mesmo momento. Bryan Hank? O seu crush celebridade estava ajoelhado bem na frente dela e pedindo-a em casamento? Ele a estava confundindo com outra pessoa? Seria possível que isso fosse uma encenação, ou talvez fosse uma daquelas pegadinhas de celebridades, e havia câmeras por perto esperando para capturar sua reação? Ou talvez ela estivesse sonhando? Sonia se perguntava enquanto olhava ao redor, mas tudo o que via eram espectadores curiosos. "Por favor! Seja minha esposa e me torne o homem mais feliz da Terra", disse ele em voz alta, chamando a atenção de todos. Seu editor, para quem ela tinha esperado por mais de uma hora porque estava tentando fechar um acordo com um produtor de cinema interessado em uma de suas histórias, apareceu naquele momento, "Sonia, você conhece o Bryan Hank?" Seu editor perguntou em genuína surpresa ao ver a cena diante dele. Parecia ter passado uma hora desde que Bryan se ajoelhou, mas só tinha passado um minuto. Bryan sabia que nenhuma mulher seria louca o suficiente para aceitar uma proposta tão maluca e, mesmo que alguma fosse, seria fácil pagar-lhe e cancelar toda a situação, já que tudo o que ele queria era um escândalo que pudesse vir disso. As manchetes seriam sobre sua proposta de casamento rejeitada ou seu suposto noivado, o que seria suficiente para tirar Sophia do gancho. "Sim!" Sonia respondeu, balançando a cabeça empolgadamente e estendendo o dedo para que ele colocasse o anel. "Sim?" Bryan perguntou confuso ao ouvir sua resposta. "Sim! Eu serei sua esposa e farei de você o homem mais feliz do mundo!" Sonia disse rindo e mexendo os dedos até que Bryan deslizou o anel neles. Surpreendentemente, o anel era de seu tamanho exato e cabia perfeitamente em seu dedo, como se tivesse sido feito especialmente para ela. O som de aplausos irrompeu ao redor deles enquanto Sonia se levantava com um grande sorriso no rosto e abraçava Bryan antes de beijá-lo nos lábios. Bryan ficou um pouco surpreso com a audácia dela, mas rapidamente se recuperou já que este era o seu jogo, e ele tinha que participar. Afinal, ele tinha sido quem a procurou primeiro. Então, quando ela tentou interromper o beijo, ele segurou o queixo dela e lentamente mordeu seu lábio inferior antes de separar seus lábios com a língua e sugar de maneira provocante, arrancando um gemido de Sonia. Sonia se sentia tonta. Isso era bom demais para ser verdade. Só podia ser um sonho. Como mais ela poderia explicar que um momento estava sentada no saguão de um hotel esperando seu editor, e no seguinte estava noiva de seu crush celebridade e o beijava bem ali, em público?

Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons

"Dragons rule the skies, the land, and the seas... humanity survives in the cracks, dreaming of a comeback." _______ Power comes from the beast you tame in this world, and you need to do it at the tender age of ten. Wolves, hawks, snakes, spiders, the stronger your summon, the brighter your future. Too bad for our protagonist. When everyone else summoned salamanders, eagles, or tigers, he got… Well, let’s just say the only thing lower on the food chain is dirt. Laughed at, bullied, and living as the butt of every joke, he’s not exactly winning. But giving up isn’t an option, his aging parents sold everything for his chance, and he won’t let it be for nothing. But hey, this is his story. The weakest beast tamer? Here’s the thing about being at the bottom: it teaches you how to climb. And dragons? The apex predators? Turns out they start small too, so... He’s going to tame everything, every evolutionary line. How? Turns out, his summon isn’t useless after all. Step one: survive long enough to unlock his gift. Step two: tame creatures nobody else dares to touch. Step three: become the strongest tamer the world has ever seen and laugh in the face of those who doubted him. As kingdoms crumble under greed and external threats, the weakest tamer begins his rise. Because in this world, strength isn’t just about the creature you summon; it’s about the bond you forge, the risks you take, and the will to rise when the world drags you down. Follow his path as he unlocks a potential so rare, so terrifying, it leads to dragons… Even better, every evolutionary line leads to the strongest ‘SSS Dragons’. _______ Warning: Contains world-ending dragons, questionable life choices, ridicule-fueled underdog revenge, dragon-scaled protagonist, morally questionable nobles, insane creature evolutions, over-the-top power fantasy, and enough twists to make you wonder if weakest really means luckiest.

If you’re looking for a more serious or a bit grim-dark story, look somewhere else (Maybe Utopian System (;) This one’s about having fun, taming dragons and expectations. _______ If you want to know more about the cover: Yep, that's Luna lounging like it's a casual afternoon… on two dragons, no less. The white side looks regal, the dark side (dark blue one) radiates menace, and Luna? She’s caught somewhere in between, with her skin and clothes morphing into shimmering scales from their power. Oh, and don’t miss the tiny horns. It’s not just fashion; it’s fusion. High-level beasts tend to leave their mark, and Luna wears it like a boss. Sitting on dragons, half-transformed, and pulling off the ultimate power move. If they can put one dragon in their covers… I may as well put 2! We will use the same Discord from Utopian, come join! https://discord.gg/W3CjfC2cw4

Tangled in Desire

Zara's eyes were glued to Xavier's bare chest, unable to look away. The sculpted muscles, the deep V-line, the way his sweatpants hung low on his hips—she couldn't help but be captivated. It was as if her brain had short-circuited, and all logic had left her. She moved a step closer, almost unconsciously, her hand lifting as if to touch his chest. Before her fingers could make contact, Xavier's quick reflexes caught her wrist. His grip was firm, but not harsh, and he raised an eyebrow, looking at her with an amused expression. "What do you think you're doing?" he asked, his voice low but laced with a hint of teasing. Zara, startled but determined not to show weakness, scratched the back of her head awkwardly, trying to save face. "What do you mean? Why are you walking around shirtless?" she countered, trying to shift the focus off herself. Xavier's smirk deepened, his dark eyes glinting with mischief. "I'm not the one sneaking around in other people's rooms, Zara. You're the one who barged in here." Zara blinked, her mind scrambling to find an excuse. "Oh, right," she muttered, still not sure how to explain her behavior. She gave him a sheepish grin, but her eyes darted back to his chest, trying to look casual. "I was just… looking for something," she said, her words trailing off as she tried to think of a better lie. Xavier didn't buy it for a second. Slowly, he took a step forward, closing the distance between them. Zara instinctively took a step back, but Xavier followed, not giving her any space to escape. Her heart raced as she backed up again, trying to keep some distance between them, but Xavier wasn't making it easy. "Trying to run away now?" Xavier teased, his voice laced with playful challenge. He moved another step forward, and Zara continued retreating, her back now against the wall. Her breath hitched as she realized she had nowhere else to go. "I wasn't trying to run away," Zara said quickly, her voice a little too high-pitched. "Just, you know, I… I don't want to intrude. I just—"  But Xavier wasn't interested in her stammering excuses. His gaze remained locked on her, and as he stepped closer, his hand that had caught her wrist slowly slid down to her fingers, brushing against her skin. The gentle touch sent an unexpected shiver down her spine. Zara's heart hammered in her chest, and she took another step back, this time bumping into the wall with a soft thud. She couldn't help but feel the heat building between them, the tension so thick it was almost palpable. Xavier, now mere inches from her, tilted his head, his lips curling into a playful grin. "I think you're lying," he murmured, his voice soft, but full of mischief. "You were trying to touch my chest, weren't you?" Zara's face flushed with heat, and she tried to push back against him, but it was like trying to move a mountain. She cleared her throat, trying to recover some of her composure. "Maybe I was," she admitted, her voice low. "But, um… so what? It's not like you're making it easy to ignore." Xavier's grin widened as he leaned even closer, his body just inches away from hers. The closeness was overwhelming, and Zara's mind started to spin. She could feel the heat radiating off his chest, and she had to fight the urge to reach up and touch it again. "Is that so?" Xavier whispered, his breath warm against her ear. He placed his hand on the wall beside her head, trapping her in place as he stared down at her with a wicked gleam in his eyes. "You sure about that?".

Miss Loser is too enchanting

She was the genius daughter of an Ancient Martial Family, shining brightly, and known as one of the fearsome "Dark Twins". Due to her sister's betrayal, she and her partner both perished. She was Ajiu of Qifeng City, the so-called waste that everyone laughed at. Although she was a daughter of a cultivating family, she had no Phantom Power Source and couldn't cultivate Phantom Power. She was banished to a remote small town and eventually beaten to death by her cousin in a dilapidated courtyard. When the genius daughter, who gained the treasure of cultivation in the Endless Void, transmigrated into the body of the waste daughter, the gears of fate began to turn again. The waste would set foot on the path of cultivation! Contracting Divine Beasts, practicing Alchemy, refining artifacts, carrying on the legacy of ancient Divine Artifacts, seeking her kin, exterminating evil spirits, let's see how she stirs the heavens and earth! He was the most noble man between heaven and earth, of supreme status, with a bewitching appearance. Due to a game started out of boredom, he encountered her, and from then on, through heaven and earth, he would never leave her side! Snippet One: Dugu Qianye sat in the way she used to practice in her previous life, beginning to examine her current body. The blocked meridians, the weak energy channels, this body was truly terrible. As she continued downward, she arrived at the Dantian, "Eh? What is this?" What should have been an empty Dantian was floating with a... uh, an egg? "Why is it an egg? Could my body have turned into a hen? Does it have to be this fantastical!" "I am not an egg, you're the egg! Your whole family are eggs!" Just as Dugu Qianye was conflicted between the egg and the hen, a childish voice arose in her mind. "Eh? The egg can talk?" Dugu Qianye was astonished. "Damn it, I've already told you, I am not an egg!" the egg fumed. Snippet Two: Watching Dan Jingtian eating and exhaling from being burned at the same time, Dugu Qianye suddenly felt like teasing him. After thinking, she said, "I am a child from the mud pill family on Dot Street in Wuyou Town, next to Zixu City." Dan Jingtian rubbed the back of his head and said, "Zixu City, Wuyou Town, why haven't I heard of any of them? Also, what’s a mud pill?" "Stupid!" Mo Ziqing tapped Dan Jingtian's head, "Remove the city and town and read it again." "Zixu, Wuyou, Dot, Mud Pill, ugh, it's all nonsense to trick you! No way, brother, are you playing me?" Snippet Three: "Hey, that woman punched a hole in the sky." Ci Hun appeared in front of Zi Xiao and said wickedly. "Oh?" Zi Xiao looked up at him indifferently and said, "Just a hole in the sky. Go, find someone to fix that hole." "That woman also ripped a hole in that man’s pants, right on the butt." Ci Hun continued. "What?" The man, who had been casual just a moment ago, jumped to his feet, his bewitching face filled with rage, "A hole in the butt? Dare to show his butt in front of my woman, come, let's go chop his butt off!" Ci Hun was speechless, saying, "That was done by the woman." "Still, chop it off! Can't even protect his own butt, might as well chop it off." Snippet Four: Dugu Qianye looked at the person tied up like a rice dumpling in front of her, stroked her chin, and said, "I've decided, I'm going to rob. Hand over everything valuable you have on you!" "I don't have any money," Mang Qianjun said indignantly, looking at Dugu Qianye. "What? No money? Then what's the point of keeping you around! Xiaohuo, light a fire," Dugu Qianye said somberly. "Wait, wait, I haven't finished yet," Mang Qianjun shouted, "I don't have money, but I have the entire Endless Hell. You can rob it!"

Threads of Yesterday

The sun dipped low over the skyline of Austin, casting long shadows on the streets below. In the heart of the city, the hum of life pulsed on. Irena Valdez adjusted her lab coat as she stepped out of the biomedical research facility she called her second home. She had spent years carving a name for herself in the world of science, becoming one of the most sought-after lab technologists in the field. Her days were filled with precision, breakthroughs, and the satisfaction of knowing her work made a difference. Tonight, as she strolled down the sidewalk toward her favorite coffee shop, a sense of calm washed over her. Her life felt perfect—or close enough. Her marriage to Daniel was steady, filled with laughter, warmth, and the kind of trust that made her believe in forever. They were building a future together, one filled with love and mutual respect. The soft chime of the café’s bell greeted her as she pushed open the door. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee enveloped her like an old friend. Irena ordered her usual—an almond milk latte—and found a seat by the window. She pulled out her phone to catch up on messages, her mind still swirling with the day’s experiments. But then she heard it. A voice. Deep, familiar, and achingly tied to a part of her life she thought she had tucked away. “Irena?” She looked up, her heart skipping a beat. Standing there, holding a steaming cup of coffee, was Ethan Reyes. Her ex. The man who had once been her everything before life had pushed them apart. His face held a mixture of surprise and something else—nostalgia, perhaps? Time had etched faint lines around his dark eyes, but he was still unmistakably Ethan, with that easy confidence and the smile that had once unraveled her. For a moment, the café faded away, replaced by a flood of memories. The late-night drives, the laughter, the arguments that had burned like wildfire. The quiet moments when they thought they’d found forever. And the heartbreak when they realized they hadn’t. Ethan’s gaze flicked to her left hand, where the glint of her wedding band caught the light. He smiled, but there was a flicker of something unreadable in his eyes. “Mind if I join you?” he asked, his tone casual, though his question carried a weight they both felt. Irena hesitated for only a second, then nodded. “Sure.” As he sat across from her, the past and present collided in a way Irena hadn’t anticipated. She was happy—secure in her life with Daniel. But as Ethan leaned forward, his words carrying the echoes of their shared history, she realized the past never truly disappears. It lingers, waiting for moments like this to remind you of who you were, who you are, and the choices that shaped it all.

The Phoenix Overwhelms the World

In her past life, she was the perfect substitute for a noble lady, discarded in the most cruel manner once she had outlived her usefulness. In this life, she is a woman of unparalleled status, renowned across the world, both cunning and carefree, yet feared by all in the martial world. At the age of four, standing in the grand hall, to protect her weak but dearly beloved brother, she stained her hands with blood and swore to the heavens, "I will shoulder the responsibilities of this world for him, and I will bear the calamities of this world for him!" Ten years later, a woman dressed in plain clothes like the snow under the moon, of breathtaking beauty, emerged in the martial world, beyond the reach of imperial power. "What I desire, what I set my eyes on, shall be mine." In the royal capital of Pan City, at the Martial Arts Assembly, heroes gathered from all corners of the land. Upon the high platform, with just one stunning glance and a casual smile, she captured the hearts of countless admirers and stirred the envy of others. As chaos and war swept the land, as the imperial star faded and warlords rose, the Princess of the Cheng Dynasty drew her sword, abandoning the freedom of the martial world to take to the battlefield. With her sword gleaming in battle and her spirit unyielding, can she protect her country and its people, and uphold the vows she made? Watch as she, a woman from another world, captures the hearts of both men and women, shines in this tumultuous age of heroes, and writes her own legend! Self-introduction: Feng Xianyue: “There is something in this world that surpasses love and freedom, something worth sacrificing everything to protect. I am Feng Xianyue, the Xihe Princess of Feng Nation. They are my responsibility and duty!” Lan Yixuan: “What I desire most in life is perhaps to get a good night’s sleep, to forget everything and live in peace. Your arrival was unexpected, and my desire is no longer just to take lives without bloodshed, but to—have you!” Xuanyuan Hao: “I want both the throne and the woman, but if I must choose one day, I will choose the throne. As for her, I will cherish her in my heart for the rest of my life—no regrets.” Bai Zhanfeng: “Only a woman who can match me in battle is worthy of my affection. Xianyue, is it? I declare that from this day on, you are my woman.” Jun Pinyu: “With my skilled hands, I can cure all ailments and relieve the most bizarre poisons, but who can cure this lovesickness that afflicts me?” Feng Jiulan: “Yue'er, I only wish for you to live a simple life as the most ordinary of people. It’s my fault as your brother that you have suffered.” The heroine is powerful, with both strength and influence, and the story is one of everlasting love between one man and one woman.

Buisness Casual Romance is a dramatic romance novel centered around Ethan Blackwood, a brilliant yet emotionally distant CEO, and Soo-Jin, a driven and talented young woman working under him. Both are deeply committed to their careers, with Soo-Jin leading a crucial project at Blackwood Industries. Ethan, burdened by a rare illness and a troubled family history, keeps his distance from most people, guarding his vulnerabilities. His strict demeanor and cold personality make him seem unapproachable, but behind this mask, he is struggling with personal demons and physical limitations. Soo-Jin, on the other hand, is resourceful, independent, and determined to prove her worth, balancing her professional ambitions with her personal struggles. As they work closely together, Ethan and Soo-Jin develop a complicated relationship that begins to shift from professional to personal. Amid growing attraction, they both grapple with their own insecurities and fears. Soo-Jin’s former lover, Min-ho, reemerges with obsessive intentions, fueling tension and danger, while Ethan’s rivalry with Jason Kim, another CEO who is also interested in Soo-Jin, complicates matters further. As these conflicts escalate, both Ethan and Soo-Jin must confront their pasts and navigate their feelings for each other while under the weight of external pressures, personal health challenges, and emotional scars. In the end, Hearts Under Fire explores themes of love, obsession, trust, and vulnerability, as the characters battle not only external forces but their own inner turmoil.
