In a rain-soaked city where shadows hide more than just secrets, two broken souls collide. Zoya, a young woman running from her father’s debts and the life that suffocates her, meets Aarish, a guarded man with a dark past he can’t escape. Together, they form an unlikely bond, teaching each other how to disappear—not just from the world, but from the pain that haunts them. But disappearing isn’t as simple as erasing your name or changing your face. It’s about letting go of the people you love, the places you call home, and the person you used to be. As Zoya and Aarish grow closer, they begin to realize that their connection is both a lifeline and a liability. For Aarish, loving Zoya means putting her in danger. For Zoya, loving Aarish means risking the fragile new life she’s built. When Aarish vanishes without a word, leaving only a letter and a shattered heart behind, Zoya is forced to confront the truth about their pasts—and the sacrifices they’ve both made to survive. "The Art of Disappearing" is a haunting tale of love, loss, and the unbearable weight of letting go. It’s a story about the people who change us, the choices that define us, and the scars that remind us of where we’ve been.

As a successful villainous BOSS, in addition to having ideas and aspirations, one must also keep in mind three points: First, grow sneakily, don't act rashly (once a villain acts rashly, they basically won't survive past three chapters). Second, you're not a good person, so be ruthless (becoming more evil will make you three times stronger, while redemption weakens you by seven times). Third, remember the two points above. The moment you forget them, your end is probably on its way.

Xie Xuanyi fell into the Northern Sea, yet, under the nourishment of the "Undying Spring," he unexpectedly welcomed a second life. Chronic ailments had faded, and new flames reignited. A single ember can set the fields ablaze. Enchantresses, Sword Immortals, Buddhist disciples... A multitude of demons danced chaotically as a great tide approached, heralding another golden age!

"Who says the path realized by Sword Cultivators can only be the Sword Dao?"

WHAT DO THESE MANIPULATORS KNOW THAT THE REST OF US DON'T?

Dual Cultivation is an art. The more you focus on doing the art, the worse it becomes. Only when doing it becomes part of the art itself, does one truly experience it to its fullest. You will know you understand only when you can't tell the singer from the song, dancer from the dance, and the daoist partners from the dao. This is true enlightenment in the art of dual cultivation ... The 'Naked Sword Art' is a personal skill of mine. It isn't perfect yet, but I believe it will one day be the greatest dual cultivation technique known to man.

Brielle is one of the few female hunters at the association. Dealing with useless trainees every six months, she has a low tolerance for bullshit. She no longer believes in love, and nothing will change her mind after what happened to her. She believes that the only thing she can love and trust is her job, where she helps protect the defenceless by killing those who use their abilities to get everything they want. Hunting is a thrill that she enjoys more than life itself. Having a minimalist life, the only thing at home she cherishes is her painting. A vampire that refuses to choose a partner for his sister. Ketan will do anything to protect his loved ones, even kill those that threaten his livelihood. Usually, he is calm, gentle, and collected. He stays hidden away from everyone when he does not want anything to do with individuals until the day he is captured and locked away in a dungeon. After that moment, his life changed for good. Cursing the blood that he drinks, Ketan fights against the pull of drinking more blood from the person that donated the blood. An Excerpt from the book: Brielle throws her arms around Ketan’s neck. “I was so worried about you. I did not know what you were going to do or if you would survive.” Ketan smiled and accepted her hug. “I am sorry for worrying you. I had to do what needed to be done. Besides, I knew that this was going to happen and be as painful as it was.” Brielle starts sobbing in his embrace. “I think that you should take what you need from me, Ketan. You will not be able to stand the bloodlust soon… will you?” Pushing her away before losing control. Ketan moves away from her weakly. “Stay back. I am not in control of myself right now. You should not even be here right now. Leave me alone!” Ketan holds his hand out to stop her from coming closer to him. “I can hear your pulse racing; it’s deafening.” “You were fine a moment ago; now you are you pushing me away, Ketan? I can help you.” Brielle leans down towards him and gently pulls him into her arms. “No, stop. I can’t control myself, and I would never be able to forgive myself if something happened to you. I am not a sedated beast; I lust for every drop of your sweet blood that I hear pumping through your veins, but I must resist. Otherwise, I will harm you in the worst way possible.” Ketan pushes her back and teleports deeper into the cave. “Stay back before I begin to acquire a taste for your blood. It is a deadly thing to tempt fate once again.” Brielle continues to walk into the deep dark cave towards him. “Ketan, I trust you more than I have trusted others. I know that you will not kill me. Just look at how fearful you are right now.” She finally reaches him again. Crying, Ketan grabs her from behind, sits her in his lap. One arm wrapped around her waist, the other in her hair, pulling off the right exposing her neck. Slowly he lowers his lips to her neck, licking the surface testing the flesh. His fangs rest at the hollow of her neck before carefully breaking the skin. He starts to drink her blood deeply, but as he drank, he slowly stopped and lifted his face up, crying while holding Brielle against his body crying. Blood leaking from the bite marks while some drips down his chin. Her body was being held up by Ketan, and her eyes were now closed. Her body seemed lifeless in his arms. She started to slide forward as a deadweight. Ketan catches her and holds her princess style in his lap, rocking back and forth. Crying fresh tears.

Waiting is not just a pause but a quiet unfolding of patience, hope, and unseen possibilities. In its stillness, we grow, trust, and discover the beauty of anticipation.

Let the Game Begin – Novel Description Love is a game. And I always win. At least, that’s what I thought. When I set my sights on him—the cold, distant one—I thought it would be fun to make him fall. A little teasing, a little provocation… just enough to make him crave me. But I didn’t expect others to join the game. A charming manipulator who never reveals his true intentions. A loyal protector whose devotion borders on obsession. A wild rival who refuses to lose. And the one I originally targeted—who is far more dangerous than I ever realized. Now, the game is no longer mine to control. The hunters have become the hunted. And as their obsessions grow, one thing becomes clear… I might have started this, but I don’t know if I’ll survive it. Let the game begin.
