Das Haustier des Tyrannen

Widder Aime Heathcliffe. Eine Prinzessin aus dem kleinen Königreich Rikhill wurde von allen geliebt. Mit ihrer bezaubernd zurückhaltenden Schönheit und ihrem klugen Verstand hatte sie viel Aufmerksamkeit erregt und die Herzen vieler erobert. Einer von ihnen war der schneidige Kronprinz des Maganti-Reiches. Überwältigt von der Sehnsucht nach ihr und seinem Interesse an dem Land des kleinen Königreichs, machte der Kronprinz des besagten Reiches vor nichts Halt. Die Ritter des Maganti-Reiches marschierten durch die Massen und eroberten das vierhundert Jahre alte Königreich Rikhill. Das Königreich Rikhill fiel über Nacht in den Ruin. Der Kronprinz ließ kein Mitglied der königlichen Familie am Leben, außer seiner Kriegstrophäe Aries. Nachdem er in seinen Händen gelitten hatte, fand Widder die perfekte Gelegenheit zur Flucht. Damals nahm er sie mit zum Weltgipfel. Ein Treffen der Herrscher aller Königreiche und Reiche zu Friedensgesprächen. Dort traf sie den Kaiser von Haimirich, Eustass Silvestri Abel Bloodworth. Von Verzweiflung überwältigt, flehte Aries ihn an, sie bei sich aufzunehmen. Es war zu spät, als sie erkannte, dass der Mann, den sie um Hilfe bat, noch viel grausamer, verdrehter und geradezu teuflischer war als der Kronprinz, weil er sie als sein... Haustier annahm! EXZERPT: Als ein Paar karmesinroter Augen über ihr schwebte, hielt Aries den Atem an. Als sich seine Lippen teuflisch kräuselten, konnte sie nicht schnell genug reagieren, als er ihre Position schnell veränderte. Sie merkte es erst, als sie ihn sattelte und mit großen Augen auf Abel hinunterblickte. "Niemand steht in diesem Reich über mir - nicht einmal das Gesetz, aber sieh dich an", sagte er mit einem teuflischen Grinsen. "Du starrst auf mich herab... so entmutigend." Aries biss sich auf die Lippe und legte ihre Handfläche auf ihre eingefärbte Brust. "Eure Majestät..." "Verstehst du jetzt, welche Macht du hast, Liebling?" Abel wickelte seine Finger vorsichtig um ihr Handgelenk, erfreut über ihre Reaktion. "Nur du, Widder, darfst dich über mich erheben und bist der einzige Mensch auf dieser Welt, der auf mich herabschauen darf. Niemand sonst." Er hob einen Arm und fuhr mit den Fingern durch ihr Haar und legte seine Handfläche auf ihren Hinterkopf, bevor er sie nach unten zog, bis ihr Gesicht eine Handbreit von ihm entfernt war. "Nutze das lieber zu deiner eigenen Verfügung", flüsterte er und legte den Kopf schief, als er ihn anhob, um zu fordern, was ihm gehörte. SIE. Darf ich vorstellen: Eustass Silvestri Abel Bloodworth, der sadistische Tyrann, der ein Imperium mit eiserner Faust regierte. Als sein Haustier Aries immer mehr in sein langweiliges, düsteres Leben eindrang, war er drauf und dran, sie zu töten. Doch jedes Mal, wenn er daran dachte, ihr das Leben zu nehmen, änderte er leider seine Meinung. Je länger er sie an seiner Seite hatte, desto schwieriger wurde es, sie loszuwerden. Und je mehr er sich nach etwas Tieferem und Dunklerem sehnte... es machte ihn wahnsinnig. Was würde Abel mit dem Geheimnis, das er vor ihr verbarg, tun, wenn Aries die verrottende Wahrheit hinter dem Reich und dem Kaiser herausfand? Würde er sie töten? Oder sie küssen? Sie vielleicht in einen Käfig sperren? Und würde sie versuchen zu fliehen, wenn sie herausfindet, dass Abel nicht nur ein normaler Mensch ist? Oder würde sie akzeptieren, dass er nicht nur ein leibhaftiger Dämon war? War es in einer komplizierten Welt, die sie schwarz färbte, überhaupt möglich, dass zwischen einem Haustier und seinem Herrn Liebe aufblühte? Beobachte, wie diese beiden das gefährliche und verrückte Spiel von Liebe und Lust spielen. Wer würde der Meister und wer das Haustier sein? Wer war die Beute? Lesen Sie, um mehr herauszufinden. --------- Originalgeschichte von: alienfrommars FOLGE MIR AUF INSTAGRAM für originelle Zeichenkunst: @authoralienfrommars Discord-Server: https://discord.gg/tbS4rKec3e Haftungsausschluss: Cover nicht von mir.

Escapé de mi ex, fui capturada por su rival

``` —Durante los últimos tres años, Ariana Ari Harlow ha dado todo de sí a su marido —. Los dos se casaron porque su hermana decidió huir en la noche de la boda, ya que creyó los rumores de que la Corporación Nelson estaba en bancarrota. —Ari amaba a Noah desde que tenía dieciséis años —, pensó que era el sueño de su vida hecho realidad. Sin embargo, no sabía que su hermana le había tendido una trampa y no era el comienzo de su nueva vida, sino su nuevo infierno. —Se vio obligada a renunciar a su formación como médico porque la respetable Señora Nelson no podía tener las manos cubiertas de sangre —. Ari aceptó. —Por el bien de Noah, se convirtió en la esposa perfecta que cuidaba de sus suegros y su marido —. No obstante, lo único que le esperaba eran insultos, su marido se avergonzaba de ella y su suegra creía que su hermana, Ariel, era la más adecuada para su hijo. —Con todo, Ari persistió —. Pensó que algún día llegaría a ablandar el corazón de su marido. —¡Pero lo pilló besando a su hermana! —.Con el corazón roto, Ariana decidió divorciarse de su marido, pero de alguna manera se encontró enredada con Nicolai —. El enemigo y rival de su marido. —No estaban destinados a estar juntos —. Pero a Nicolai no parece importarle las probabilidades en su contra. —De hecho, estaba decidido a irrumpir en la vida de Ari y prenderle fuego a todo —.En un estado de embriaguez, una vez la sujetó del cuello contra la pared de un bar sórdido : — "Puedes negarlo todo lo que quieras princesa, pero me deseas—. Sus ojos recorrieron su pecho agitado y sus ojos se oscurecieron, el rojo apareció desquiciado, posesivo como si quisiera arrancarle el alma del cuerpo y anclarla al suyo : — "Apuesto a que si echo un vistazo, estarás chorreando húmeda por mí. —El calor subió a las mejillas de Ariana mientras ella gruñía : — "Cállate. —Hazlo tú—, dijo Nicolai mientras estampaba sus labios sobre los de ella . —Sus besos se quemaban en su alma, y su calor le quemaba la piel cada vez que se tocaban —.Pensó que su mayor error había sido enredarse con Nicolai. —Con todo, Ari pronto se dio cuenta, literalmente, que ser deseada por semejante hermosa pesadilla era mucho peor que un error . ``` Y las cosas se complican cuando su marido descubre la verdad sobre todo. —Dispárame en el corazón, Ari —dijo Noah mientras colocaba la boquilla del arma donde latía su corazón—. Porque una vida sin ti es una vida que no quiero, así que mátame o vuelve. Te lo suplico. Ahora que Nicolai le había dado una opción, ¿se enamoraría Ari de él y se lanzaría a una vida de nada más que peligro? ¿O volvería con su marido, Noah, a quien ha amado desde que tenía dieciséis años? ¿Y evitaría Ariana el peligro que acecha en la oscuridad, esperando a que ella cometa un error y pierda todo lo que le es querido? ¿Encontraría la clave de todos los secretos que la atan a Noah y Nicolai así como a su retorcido destino? ******* —Se trata de dinero, ¿verdad? Toma y lárgate —gritó mientras lanzaba la tarjeta negra a la cara de Ariana. Ariana no podía creer lo que oía cuando su marido o su futuro exmarido la humillaba de esta manera. Tres años. Ariana Harlow le dio a Noah Nelson tres años y sin embargo cuando lo sorprendió besando a su hermana mayor, Ariel—— esto fue lo que él le dijo. —Voy a divorciarme de ti —declaró Ari y se fue. Se fue sin un centavo, pero Ari se topó con Nicolai. El enemigo y rival de su marido, el príncipe de la mafia de la Ciudad Lonest, un bastardo notorio conocido por sus tendencias violentas. El desafortunado encuentro la colocó en el camino de Nicolai y, así como así, posó sus ojos en ella. La primera vez que se encontraron, Nicolai le pidió que lo invitara a cenar. La segunda vez que se encontraron, le entregó un millón de dólares. La tercera vez que se encontraron, declaró —Te ves bien en mis brazos, ¿qué dices princesa? ********

Too Gay for You: You Give me Heart Eyes (GL)

Popular girl Ari Cho is absolutely charming, leaving Yumi Kim, the school nerd, too gay to function normally. ** FOREWORD: Like any other day, I sat back and watched Ari hold court in the far corner of the school cafeteria. She was surrounded by her usual swarm of admirers, each one trying—and failing—to win her over. One by one, they crumbled under the weight of her gentle rejections, their faces painted with the sting of unrequited affection. Oh, what a marvellous sight to behold. The scene took a dramatic turn when two of the boys started arguing, throwing out accusations about who was making Ari more uncomfortable. The irony was almost too good—they were both so oblivious to the fact that their entire presence was likely making her want to bolt out the door. I took another bite of my sandwich, savouring the free entertainment. Poor Ari, trapped in the middle of a gaggle of hormonal teenagers who genuinely believed their cringe-worthy displays of “manliness” would sweep her off her feet. Pathetic. You might be wondering why I’m not stepping in to rescue Ari from that circus of admirers. Well, let me give you three solid reasons why meddling is a terrible idea for me. First, I’m no Superman—I don’t do heroic deeds. Second, I’m far too comfortable living my drama-free life to jeopardise it now. And third, let’s be real, my body is definitely not built for a catfight. As I happily munched on my sandwich, enjoying the chaos from a safe distance, I made a grave error, I locked eyes with Ari. Oh, crap. Picture this: while the two idiotic boys were still mid-argument, Ari—with a slightly shy smile—started walking towards my direction, her tray of food balanced in her hands. No, no, no. God, please tell me she’s not actually coming to talk to m— “Hi, Yumi!” she said casually, her smile so bright it could power a small city. ** OTHER STORIES: Miss Not So Typical (on going)

The Lycan Gifted Slave

Poor Lucy Wood never foresaw things getting this dire. She was borne by a slave woman who died after giving birth to her and treated as a slave by her step mother and sister. Shunned and rejected by Alpha Thorne-her fated mate-she is all but shattered in her lonely misery. Yet, the fates can be hilariously sadistic. Not even six months into her abandonment, Lucy finds herself in the custody of the most feared Lycan King, Tristan Landon. Fearsome, with a reputation to make even the bravest cower, Tristan rules with an iron fist, his law extending over the whole realm of the werewolves. Still, beneath the commanding and intimidating exterior, Lucy feels that there must be something far more complicated about Tristan-some dangerous allure, perhaps even a spark of something more than dominance. Thrown into the world of royal politics, ancient bloodlines, and dangerous plots, Lucy's life does another flip when Tristan declares her his future Luna. His impulsive move rattles the very core of the kingdom, further enraging Zara-a cunning she-wolf who laid claim to the position of Luna. Jealousy knows no bounds, and with Lucy's former mate, Alpha Thorne, they become a force to be reckoned with. They both join in an attempt to destroy everything she has ever loved. While trying to learn the ropes of her new position, Lucy learns some shocking truths about her lineage: deep inside her lies a power unlike any other-the power of the Lamia pack, a lineage of Alphas forgotten by time, whose powers can alter the very fate of all werewolf packs. But as Spiderman knows, with great power comes great danger, and soon Lucy's strength will be both blessing and curse. Smitten by his growing feelings for Lucy and his need to control the powerful forces surrounding him, Tristan must ultimately decide if their bond is worth the risk of his kingdom. But when Alpha Thorne kidnaps Lucy's child, an ancient prophecy is illuminated-one that speaks of a great reckoning, one where the future of the packs hangs in the balance of Lucy's talents. Amongst betrayals lurking at every turn and old and new enemies threatening her at every pass, Lucy must make her way through a maze of deceit, love, and power. Now, will she be able to find her trust in Tristan and become the Luna their world needs, or will the darkness within tear them apart for good? This is a thrilling tale of love, power, and betrayal. Lucy must rise above the shadows to claim her own fate before it is too late.

Revenge of the Crimson Shadow

Eternal Cleansing Region, somewhere in the Aries Kingdom, midnight “Ohmmm~~~!” The sound of chanting was heard as pebbles jumped, buildings vibrated, and the ground shook. In a huge church, many figures in dark red robes were on their knees surrounding an altar, seemingly praying to a god. There were thousands upon thousands of figures, all chanting the same thing. The gargantuan church had very tall windows, with which housed stained glass. The church was very caliginous, only having the soft light of the moon to illuminate things through those windows. If one gazed up, a mural could be discerned within a cupola. It illustrated a devil lingering above the land, with which figures with red eyes stood; then, a huge sun encroaching upon the territory of that devil, and burning all that was. Afterward, the mural showed a few survivors, on their knees, worshiping what appeared to be a god floating in the air as the surrounding lands burned to ash. The robed figures surrounded an altar upon which stood an imposing golden statue of a muscular man, in nothing but a toga, holding out his hand. In his hand, burned a powerful flame. If one were to observe this statue, they would immediately notice the beautiful orange sapphire the size of one’s hand. This statue was six stories tall, reaching just below the cupola. “Ohmmm~~~!” everything shook once again due to the sheer power of those figures’ unified voices. All of the figures began to glow a soft reddish-orange holy light, reminiscent of the sun. The light began to get brighter, gradually overtaking the gentle light of the moon. On the altar, in the center, directly below the cupola, was another silhouette. This silhouette stood with its hands held out, radiating an even greater light than those below. “Ohmmm~~~!” the statue’s eyes began to shine a similar light. Moments later, the light from the robed figures began to wane, as if the statue was absorbing it. The silhouette below the statue, however, started glowing even brighter. Seconds passed. Seconds turned into minutes, and minutes, into hours. As every second ticked by, robed figures collapsed one after the other, their state unknown. The statue’s eyes were getting brighter as each fell. After seemingly an eternity, the silhouette’s light began to flicker out of existence. Just before it blinked out of the world, the statue’s eyes flared up, and the world seemingly stopped. The silhouette’s eyes began to match those of the statue. Suddenly, a deep, monotone voice escaped from the shadowy figure, “The boy with the Shadow Dragon Bloodline. Find him. Kill him. Wipe his whole lineage from the face of this region!” it boomed throughout the church, escaping through the walls as if they were illusory. People all throughout the region began to look in the direction of the church in response to some profound power. As the figure on the altar was speaking, cracks ,glowing the same color as the statue, began to appear around its body. As soon as the silhouette stopped speaking, it collapsed and the statue’s radiant glow began to fade. “Ohmmm~~~!” echoed out once more.
