"Your world is about to change." A voice whispered to me. I turned around but everywhere was dark and I couldn't make anything or anyone out. "Who is there?" I called out into the darkness. "I'm a friend Arin, no need to be frightened." The soft voice called out to me. "What do you want with me?" I questioned, my senses on high alert as I could feel the person moving around me in circles. "I don't want anything from you. I'm here to help you." The woman revealed and my brows furrowed in confusion. "Help me?" I asked. Arin is an omega born into the Bloodfang Pack, a role she’s long accepted but never fully embraced. Growing up with her best friend Siena, who dreams of becoming Luna, Arin has always been overlooked and dismissed by those around her, especially the Alpha’s sons, the triplets Kael, Jaxon, and Rowan. However, on her 18th birthday, everything shifts when Arin learns that her mate bond has been forged with one of the triplets. The triplets, each with their own distinct personalities and goals, are drawn into a tangled web of competition, love, and duty. Arin’s bond shifts between them, causing tension and uncertainty within the Pack. But Arin’s journey takes an unexpected turn when she learns of her true heritage: she is the descendant of an ancient royal bloodline, and her powers are linked to the Moonwell, the Pack’s most sacred and powerful source of life. As the Moonwell begins to fade, Arin’s destiny is revealed. Only she can restore the Moonwell and save the Pack, but doing so means losing her mate bond forever. The battle for the Pack’s future escalates when a betrayal leads to a civil war, and one of the triplets sacrifices himself to protect Arin and restore balance. With the Pack’s survival hanging by a thread, Arin must face the harsh reality of her choices and what it means to lead.

She thought she was free. Until a billionaire and his daughter saw her — and decided she was theirs. One wanted a wife. The other wanted a mother. Neither asked if she agreed. They watched her for two years. Followed her every move. Until one day, they flew across the world and bought her future — with smiles, paperwork, and charm that smelled like roses but felt like chains. Now, she sleeps in silk sheets she didn’t choose. Wears clothes she didn’t buy. Answers to a name she didn’t earn. Every touch is a test. Every night is a transaction. And every whispered “I love you” is a warning. She hides pills beneath her tongue. She dreams of running. But there is no escape — only a cage made of wealth, obsession, and unbearable intimacy. Because he doesn’t just want her body. He wants her compliance. Her mind. Her loyalty. Her womb. And when the daughter discovers the truth — she doesn’t cry. She accuses. Now the doors are locked. The smiles are gone. And the only thing more terrifying than being watched… is being needed. This isn’t love. This is possession with a wedding ring. This is family, twisted into obsession. This is what happens when a girl becomes the answer to someone else's madness.

Shujaa Mkubwa's Dying Sun Empire has overstayed its welcome by a century or two. In every corner of Ihlok Vartul's four continents, people are holding onto life, gods, and spirits as they try to avoid being crushed by the weight of industry, political corruption, and realpolitik. In this, the unremarkable Basic have it worst, skittering between the thundering boots of magic and blessing. Young Fortus Ngubane is just about ready to quit.

Every student has a blessing, a unique power that shapes how they live, train, and survive. At Northridge Low-Risk Academy, most students are here for structure, safety, and a quiet path toward control. Ivy Hale isn't exactly average. Her blessing, Mirror Pain, can reflect any attack used against her. It’s powerful, defensive, and draining in ways most people don’t understand. But Ivy keeps her head down, sticks to routine, and lets others take the spotlight. That routine is broken when a high-risk blessing school shuts down. A few students from the now-defunct program are reassigned to Northridge. Most arrive with noise, loud personalities, strange habits, lingering tension. But one doesn’t. He slips past attendance lists, skips class, avoids conversation, and drifts just far enough to not be noticed. Ivy wouldn’t have seen him either if not for a pair of stray cats and a quiet moment outside school grounds. It starts there, with a cat, a conversation, and the smallest shift in Ivy’s life. But small shifts don’t stay small for long. Not in a world where danger never really disappears. It just changes schools. (Set in the same universe as Death Inc., but fully standalone. No prior reading required.)

She woke up in an unfamiliar room, her body aching, her memories fragmented. The moment she looked in the mirror, she realized—this wasn’t her face. Once, this body belonged to the precious daughter of the Shen family—an heiress admired by all, engaged to Mo Ziqian, heir of the illustrious Mo family. But the moment her family crumbled into bankruptcy—something he had secretly planned—the engagement was coldly broken off. "You're no longer worthy to stand by my side," Mo Ziqian had said, turning his back without a trace of guilt. As if that betrayal wasn’t enough, the original girl was framed, humiliated, and violated—her pain turned into a scandalous video that spread like wildfire. With no dignity left, she chose to end it all. Just when she stood on the edge of death, Mo Zixuan, the younger brother of her ex-fiancé, reached out his hand. "Trust me. I’ll marry you, I’ll protect you." Desperate and drowning, she clung to that lifeline—only to discover she’d stepped into an even darker abyss. His love was a lie, too. "Even you…" she whispered, tears merging with the sea that swallowed her. But fate had other plans. A new soul awoke in the body—vengeful, cold, and calculating. She wasn’t here to mourn. She was here to make them all pay. "You ruined her. Now, I'll ruin you." But something is wrong. As she begins to seek revenge, memories surface that don’t belong to the original girl. Memories of places she’s never been. Names she’s never heard. Emotions that feel too real to ignore. “Whose life am I really living…? Who am I?” Is she truly just an outsider inhabiting a stranger’s body—or is something far deeper at play? What happens when vengeance awakens something older, darker, and more dangerous? She doesn’t just want justice anymore. She wants answers. And she will burn the world to get them.

Two lives—one born in silence, the other forged in vengeance. Tesmee was raised under the Black Vanta, a deadly organization that crafts assassins from the time they're born or before the age of four. Raised to kill without question, emotion was weakness, and trust was never an option. But at nineteen, she stepped through the wrong door—one decision that’s haunted her since.

Forced to plead for protection from the very organization that trained her to be untouchable, she finds herself slipping—not just into chaos, but into the arms of an unknown man. A man obsessed with her, possessive beyond reason, who doesn’t want anything or anyone near her but him. And she didn’t just end up in his bed once. Not twice. More than that. Now, her enemies aren’t just outside the walls. Some lie beneath her sheets.

And the more time Lily spends with him, the more the lines blur between right and wrong, crush and code. As friendships tangle, secrets unravel, and emotions ignite, Lily must decide: Is Jaden worth the risk? Or will stepping into his world leave her burned? In a world where loyalty is currency and love is a gamble, Lily’s heart might just be the cost of playing the game.

But then come the dreams — flashes of fire, war, and a love that ended in blood. She begins to wonder: is their love real, or part of a fate she never chose? And on the night of their grand, forbidden wedding… chaos erupts. In the heart of darkness, the true enemy reveals themselves — and she must decide: Is his love worth risking everything… even the truth?
