Knotty But Nice

NOTHING BUT A LIE

Sera Devlin has spent years building walls around her heart, haunted by a past filled with betrayal and silence. She doesn't believe in love—not the real kind—and certainly not the kind that comes out of nowhere on a stormy night. Then she meets Elias Granger—charming, composed, and dangerously unreadable. Their connection is immediate and undeniable, but Sera quickly realizes that Elias is hiding something. Something dark. Something that could shatter her all over again. The closer she gets to him, the more tangled she becomes in a web of lies, secrets, and a truth that someone is willing to kill to protect. Every word from Elias feels like a puzzle. Every kiss hides a warning. But when the truth finally rises to the surface, Sera will have to choose: walk away from the only man who ever made her feel alive—or stay and risk losing herself completely. Because in a world where nothing is as it seems… love might be the biggest lie of all. Sera Devlin doesn't trust easily—not after her sister vanished without a trace three years ago and the world moved on like she never existed. The police called it a runaway. Sera calls it a lie. Now, haunted by the past and fueled by unanswered questions, Sera leads a quiet, guarded life—until Elias Granger crashes into her world like a storm. Mysterious, confident, and far too charming for his own good, Elias seems to know more about her sister than he should. Drawn to him against her better judgment, Sera finds herself tangled in a web of secrets, lies, and dangerous truths. As she digs deeper, she uncovers shocking connections—between Elias, her sister’s disappearance, and a darkness that’s been hiding in plain sight. Every answer brings her closer to the truth. Every kiss brings her closer to the edge. And in a world built on deception, the biggest threat to her heart… might be the only man she wants to trust. Because sometimes, love is the deadliest lie of all.

I CANT HELP BUT SMILE

Le Yao has always had one weakness — the Captain of the National Ice Hockey Team. Who wouldn’t? He’s handsome, charismatic, her ultimate idol. Since she was twelve, Le Yao has loyally occupied the bleachers, not because she knows the game — honestly, she barely understands the rules — but simply to admire him. The Captain. Her Captain. So when an opportunity finally arises for her to accompany the team for their brand’s photoshoot, she leaps at it, convincing Teacher Shen to let her join as part of her junior designer internship. This was her golden chance to see her idol up close! But then he appeared. The young prodigy of the team — arrogant, annoyingly handsome, and completely too aware of how much he gets under her skin. Somehow, instead of fawning over her beloved Captain, she finds herself constantly entangled with this troublemaker, who seems to enjoy making her flustered at every turn. At last, when the shoot wraps up, Le Yao breathes a sigh of relief. Finally, no more unexpected and expected encounters. At least, that’s what she thought. With marriage discussions looming — and having never been in a relationship before — Le Yao had calmly laid out her conditions to her parents for the prospective suitor: Must earn at least as much as she does. Must be… decently good-looking (preferably more than decent). Must have a respectable, stable and good personality. But as she sits at the arranged dinner, expecting a quiet and formal meeting — her eyes widen in disbelief. Why on earth is that prodigy sitting across from her, smiling like he’s been expecting her all along?

GODS DON’T BLEED (BUT I DID)

"You of all people should know this — you can NOT play fair in an UNFAIR world!" Winter Ogundele was born a princess of Egwura to a weak mother and an absent father who ruled from a distance so cold it burned. Left to the wolves of the court, she clung to one soul who dared to stand beside her, Zaynah, her best and only friend whom she believed saw her. Her mother’s death broke something within her. Her father’s silence only poured salt in her wound. So she searched. For strength and for power all for the reason to be seen, respected but most importantly loved. She waged wars and won, yet never earned the respect of the court. One day she returned home triumphant, at the gates, Winter expected cheers. But instead, she was draped in chains and charged with treason. Branded a traitor and hunted by the very kingdom she bled for, Winter flees into exile with her enemy, only to discover her father’s heart isn’t cruel... it’s cursed and controlled. With whispers of sea-born magic thick in the air, she makes an unthinkable sacrifice to save the only family she has left. But power always comes with a price. From her ashes rose not a woman. Not a soldier. But something much, much worse: a god with a score to settle. This isn’t a story where true love’s kiss saves the day. This is the story of a girl the world rejected. So what happens when she stops asking to be loved? And instead demands to be remembered? ⸻ ⚠ Content Warning: This book contains strong language, controversial themes, moral ambiguity, graphic sexual content, and scenes of violence and emotional trauma.

The Reborn Witch had a nice ‘Tea Time’ with the Dragon Queen today

[ Hiatus ] [Additional tag: GL, Yuri, Gender bender, skippable smut, Only Wholesome Romance, Overpowered MC & FL, fast romance] ———————- Centuries of Human-Demon War, countless deaths and warcries, as people treat deaths like daily breadcrumbs....... But now? With a single sway of her staff, Alice the Hero ended the war in less than two years, a devastation that was (traumatizingly) sung through lyres and riddles, forever a tale of a generation that foretold the hero's overpowering journey of the demonkind. Alas this story does not follow the Hero. Following the same timeline, we had Alice's father and mentor, Demond, a reincarnated, retired old mage who lived in a faraway forest. He is a survivor from another recent war named Dragonsong Battlefront, only ended by his courtesy of executing Adalon the Tyrant, whose flames drowned nations and clans in dragonfire, slaughtering countless millions alongside his Dragonkind. Upon listening to Alice's invitation for a Peace Banquet, the Tyrant Slayer Demond grumbly, but happily prepared for his reunion with his daughter. Yet a looming shadow of the tyrant's daughter awaited, for the Honourless Peacekeeper, the Sky Dragon Adrei, asked for Demond's head in exchange for his 'selfish' execution of the Tyrant, as the final resolution to the grudges of the Dragonsong Battlefront. And.........look at where we are now: “…Adrei, this old man requests that you to feed me properly.” “Oh? Is it not a request from your daughter to ‘properly’ take care of your…unique needs?” “I get it, but my mouth is up here, you perverted dragon!” “Ah it seems the wind is blowing quite nicely today…” ———— Discord Server: https://discord.gg/ZnjpQ499Kt Author’s note: The first 17 chapters would be a bit heavy to build the Yuri for a climatic chapter 19, as well as establishing themes but romance is ONLY 1v1 here! No harems! First 47 chapters (80k+ words + the first SMUT scene) is FREE!!! DAILY update at 8-10am (UTC+0). (I’ll try not to oversleep again……… ; ;) ———— (My first book! May be rough around the edge, but hope you enjoy!)
