*At Lucent Elite Academy, she never expected to get burned... until Tristan Blackwood came into her life.* She’s the shy scholarship girl trying to survive the ruthless elite. He’s the cold, elite senior student with a smoldering gaze. When a reckless bet drags them together, teasing turns into flirting, and flirting into a firestorm of desire. Tristan’s icy exterior melts every time she’s near, and she’s shocked by how much she craves his touch. From stolen glances to heated touches, their chemistry is impossible to ignore. But can she trust a man who plays games with her heart? *Lucent Elite Academy: Where first love is messy, wild, and irresistibly hot.*

Kael, the warrior chosen by prophecy, is terrified of fighting. His partner? A talking sword named Tharon, composed entirely of sarcasm and unshakable self-confidence. They have no interest in saving the world. If anything, the world seems hell-bent on killing them first. Absurd quests. A broken guild system. Emotionally unstable crops. What people call “adventuring” is, in reality, a daily struggle to barely survive the nightmare. Bound together by prophecy, a cowardly man and a venom-tongued sword. They clash constantly—but have no choice but to keep walking side by side. And step by step, they unknowingly inch closer to the heart of the world’s unraveling. A man haunted by the past. A sword that gave up on the future. Will their journey become someone’s hope? Or is it just a drawn-out spiral into failure? Either way, they keep messing things up—accidentally saving people’s lives, accidentally ruining someone’s master plan. Life is annoying like that. Tharon says: “You’re useless. But no weapon out there is better than me.” Kael thinks: “Did you really need to say that right now?” Still, they walk on. Begrudgingly. This is the story of a man who couldn’t become a hero, and the sword that gave up believing in them. A tragicomic tale of irony, despair, and just a flicker of hope. The kind that leaves you unsure whether to laugh or cry. “Become a hero? You’ve got the wrong guy. I can barely get out of bed in the morning.”

His options are either to live with the sexual frustration or find his ‘fated mate,’ but where on Earth can he find an omega with 99.9% compatibility with him? On a night out with his friends, he drunkenly follows a scent that tantalizes his whole being and carries the solution to his problem to the backseat of his car. The next day, he offers the Omega a deal: be his pheromone partner for a year but don’t he dare be mistaken, he will never love him. Is it too late for regrets once he loses his fated mate? -- WARNING: This is BL omegaverse with R-18 scenes, unhealthy relationship dynamics, mentions of past trauma and abuse, and lots of angst.

In a world blinded by overconsumption and illusions of progress, selfishness, envy and greed, one student sees it clearly. His mission is to watch, write, lead the solus to judgment and then punish. When a classmate mysteriously disappears his story begins. He Who Watches is a dark, philosophical thriller about justice, spirituality, morals and the meaning of finding love in the darkness.

She wasn’t meant to stand in the spotlight. Not with her raw voice, untamed spirit, and a heart that refused to bend to the rules of fame. But when the world tried to silence her, she sang louder. In a glittering industry built on perfection, she chose truth — even when it came at the cost of love, reputation, and her place on the stage. He saw her fire before she did. He stood by her when no one else dared. But when pressure cracked their fragile connection, he let go… and she was forced to rise alone. Through whispered betrayals, haunting melodies, and a silence heavier than any applause, she discovers that freedom is not the absence of pain — but the decision to sing through it anyway. And when he returns — too late, too tender, and yet still hers — they share one final kiss that doesn’t save them… but leaves a note behind that no one else will ever hear. More Than Free is a heartbreaking and luminous story of self-discovery, first love, and the music that remains long after the song ends.

For a 24-year-old young woman to survive in a big city where she knew nobody but her cheating boyfriend, Mila had to look for work elsewhere not just anywhere, but The Montclair Club. For one night, she served as a salesperson for the launch of a new wine. As the saying goes, (In vino veritas) Truth in wine. Mila's truth was letting her hair down and having fun just for one night. The innocent woman had her own taste of a 'one wild night.' The result? A positive pregnancy test. Mila became pregnant by the hot-tempered, international playboy and heir of the Montclair Conglomerate, from a family of old money.

[From the stories of Azuden0, Volume 3. Revelation, the Downfall. Chapter 2, Darkness's Uprising.] Achan Allare has spent his life running from his father’s legacy. A man once revered as the greatest Babaylan, a Spiritual Healer, whose supposed miracles once inspired awe. But Achan knows the truth: his father was no miracle worker. The power that once made him legendary had long since withered, tainted by the abuse of such power. Yet, unwilling to let go of his status, his father continued the illusion by using him. Forced into the role of a vessel, Achan became the façade of his father’s failing power, paraded before desperate souls who clung to false hope. And when the deception finally caught up with them, it cost his father his life. Now, Achan lives a quiet, ordinary existence- free from superstition, free from manipulation. Until they come. An influential family, desperate enough to believe. Taken against his will, Achan is thrust into a world he vowed to leave behind, commanded to take his father’s place and restore the health of their company’s sole heir. He refuses. He knows the cost of deception, knows the ruin that comes from clinging to fading miracles. But when he uncovers the truth behind their illness- a Curse that shouldn’t exist, that spreads suffering beyond its victims. He finds himself unable to turn away. With his freedom slipping through his fingers, Achan faces an impossible choice: fight against the truth he never wanted to reveal or embrace the very deception that destroyed his father- before it destroys him too. Bound to the heir through forces beyond his control, he must unravel dark secrets, confront the specter of his father’s past, and decide whether to wield a power he never asked for. But with danger lurking in the shadows, the question remains. Will he escape, or has he already been claimed by the legacy he tried to outrun?

He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not, featuring Mina’s awkward, internal struggle, a hint of her trauma, and the unsettling charm of Ren Asano. It focuses on tone, atmosphere, and quiet psychological tension.

Synopsis: The Heart He Can’t Have In the glittering skyline of Avalen City, Damian Blackwood is a man burdened by a secret — a powerful ancient curse tied to a mysterious golden ring he wears. As the ruthless billionaire CEO, he’s built an empire on control and solitude, determined never to let anyone close enough to break the spell that threatens to destroy everything he loves. Ariella, a resilient and kind-hearted courier struggling to survive in a world that has forgotten her, delivers more than just packages to Blackwood Enterprises — she delivers a spark of hope into Damian’s cold existence. Drawn together by fate and bound by the curse, their worlds collide in a dangerous dance of passion and peril. But the curse demands a price: if Damian falls truly in love, he will lose everything — his power, his life, and possibly Ariella herself. As dark forces rise and secrets unravel, both must confront their deepest fears and choose whether love is worth the ultimate sacrifice. The Heart He Can’t Have is a gripping tale of love against all odds, where every heartbeat might be the last, and where the most forbidden love could be the one that sets them free.

I wish it could all stop. The killings, the stealing, the kidnappings, deaths... I've had enough of it all. My emotional world has been torn apart because of an incident which would forever remain part of my nightmares even till the end of time.

⚠️Warning ⚠️ This series is a slow-burn, high-heat, enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance with dominant Alpha, and a strong heroine who fights back just as hard as she loves. So, expect claws, chaos, and a wild heated bond that refuses to break... **************** "I can smell your heat, Lyra." His voice was gravel and rich with command as his body pressed me to the wall, muscles trembling with restraint. "Then take me," I dared, heart slamming in my chest. "Isn't that what you want?" Kade's hand slid down my waist, fingers brushing the curve of my thigh. I gasped as his lips hovered at my ear. "You're mine, but I can't claim you." "W-why?" My lips quivered against his jawline. "Because of Evelyn? Or because I make you lose control?" "Because if I taste you once..." he paused, his growl vibrated through my bones. "I won't stop until you're marked, and that bond will burn us both to ash!" ******************* Lyra never asked to be his. She never asked for the burning ache that coils through her every time Alpha Kade is around... never asked for the bond to reawaken the night she shifted alone beneath a full moon and survived what should have killed her. But fate doesn't ask permission. Branded by a celestial sigil that scorches through her skin, haunted by visions of a forgotten ancestor, and hunted by those who fear the Moonfire bloodline running through her veins, Lyra becomes the center of a prophecy in the pack. Alpha Kade... cold, ruthless, and engaged to another, rejected her once. But the dormant bond suddenly pulls stronger now that she has shifted, and it's not just their wolves answering, It's their bodies... their scent and their need. And the one thing neither of them can escape? Their craving for each other, even if claiming her will cost him the crown...

A book written about a young girl

"Orphaned at a young age, Layla Llewellyn feels like the luckiest girl in the world after she moves in with her uncle Bill, a gardener who lives on the scenic Arvis estate in the Berg Empire. To Layla, Arvis seems like paradise; she loves to explore the vast forest, always bringing her notebook to record the wildlife she encounters. She especially loves the birds, watching them with awe as they hatch and grow from fluffy chicks into beautiful birds. Duke Herhardt, the young, handsome lord of Arvis, is also interested in birds—and in Layla. But the difference, is he's interested in birds because he likes to hunt them... and he's interested in Layla because he likes to make her cry. She had been his lovely bird in a golden cage, and her tears had been his favorite melody. He had clipped her wings. He had locked her heart. He had broken her freedom. To keep her close, Matthias had done everything without hesitation. And because he hadn’t hesitated, he had never regretted. He had never reflected. He had never apologized. When his lovely bird, Layla, opened the cage he built and flew away, Matthias had made his cruel decision: “If I lose her forever and can’t get her back, I’d rather kill her.”
