``` Penny tem três irmãos: um é um bilionário CEO, o segundo é o tenente militar mais jovem e o último é um ator de sucesso. Esses três homens de sucesso tinham apenas uma coisa em comum: intimidar Penny, a pequena irmã que era um verdadeiro incômodo. A irmã que eles nunca quiseram ter e a que alegava ser a verdadeira irmã deles, enquanto a irmã que tanto valorizaram todo esse tempo era uma farsa. Após viver uma vida de maus-tratos na casa de sua tia, algumas pessoas de alto escalão vieram até Penny com notícias sobre sua verdadeira origem. Ela pensou que finalmente estava salva do domínio de sua tia, sem saber que o que a aguardava era pior. Aos 13 anos, Penny só desejava uma coisa: que seus irmãos a amassem e a tratassem como família, tanto quanto amavam a irmã falsa. Ela trabalhou e estudou dez vezes mais do que qualquer outro apenas para ser aceita por eles. Em seu desespero, ela caiu tola em uma armadilha armada por uma pessoa mal-intencionada, sem saber que suas ações resultariam na queda de seus irmãos e nela acabando na cadeia com uma sentença de morte. No dia de sua execução, Penny tinha apenas um pensamento em mente: Se ela pudesse voltar no tempo, que seus irmãos mimassem a irmã falsa o quanto quisessem! Ela não queria mais nada com eles! E para sua surpresa, Penny se viu de volta ao dia em que tudo começou: o dia em que nasceu. Como prometido, desta vez, ela não tentaria de forma tola ganhar o amor e afeto de seus irmãos. Que se dane a família! Ela simplesmente faria muito dinheiro, viveria no luxo e faria sua própria família! Mas espere, por que agora que ela não queria mais nada com os irmãos, eles insistiam em se meter em seus assuntos? Eles não deveriam estar mimando a irmã falsa? Por que não a deixam em paz?! E como diabos ela estava casada nesta vida? Para piorar as coisas, este marido que ela nunca teve em sua primeira vida estava de repente se oferecendo para ser o pai de seus filhos?! ```

``` ¿Qué pasa cuando una diosa se enamora de un cambiaformas? Asara, la diosa del amor, fue castigada por su padre, el dios del trueno. Su delito fue enamorarse de un mortal cambiaformas alfa. Para pagar por sus pecados fue reencarnada como Cassandra LeBlanc, una princesa mortal en el mágico Reino de Speldaria. Su familia y su reino, exceptuando a su hermana mediana, la rechazaron porque nació sin ninguna habilidad mágica y no tenía recuerdos de su verdadera identidad. Su prometido, el poderoso mago comandante de Speldaria, no se inmutaba por ella. Deseaba a alguien fuerte. La vida de Cassandra se trastornó cuando recibió como obsequio un esclavo guerrero por parte del poderoso alfa de Dusartine. Se le pidió que participase en el Evento Anual de la Arena colaborando con el guerrero. Cassandra, que odiaba "La Arena" con todo su ser —un lugar donde la sangre fluía como el vino y la vida era más barata que el propio aire que respiraban—, no entendía su propósito en ella. Encima de eso, el misterioso guerrero la afectaba de maneras inimaginables. Su mirada hipnótica la desconcertaba. Su esencia rara la abrumaba. Su cuerpo bronceado y musculoso la consumía con pensamientos pecaminosos. Incluso los sueños de su vida pasada la atormentaban. Cuando "La Arena" comenzó, las agendas ocultas y las verdades subyacentes salieron a la luz y a Cassandra se le presentó un destino. No le quedó más opción que ceder y elegir un camino. La pregunta sería: —¿Cómo enfrentará Cassandra una vez que se entere de la maldición que se le ha impuesto? —¿Podrá obtener sus habilidades mágicas y enfrentarse a su padre? —¿Quién la ayudará en su viaje? ~Extracto~ Entonces lo sintió, todo él. Toda su aspereza. ``` ``` La fuerza de su brazo. La suavidad de sus labios. El agarre de su mano. El calor de su aliento. Cada músculo de su cuerpo se tensó al pensar en las implicaciones de dormir en brazos de un hombre. Nunca antes había dormido en el abrazo de un varón. Toda su piel hormigueaba como pequeñas chispas danzando en las partes que lo tocaban. Las grietas de su cerebro tenían estos recuerdos que no eran suyos. Este roce de alguna manera no le parecía ajeno. Se sentía segura en su abrazo tranquilizador y no deseaba apartarlo, y sin embargo sabía que esto no era para nada apropiado. Cassandra intentó zafarse de su agarre, pero sus brazos parecían hechos de hierro, pues no se movían. La ligera prenda que había llevado se había alzado de su muslo de leche dejándolo al descubierto, mientras el musculoso y bronceado de él se posaba sobre el suyo. Y ahora podía sentir algo punzándola en la espalda. Sus ojos de repente se expandieron al darse cuenta y Cassandra entró en pánico total. —¡Suéltame! —dijo con voz grave. Siroos lentamente levantó su pierna y aflojó su agarre en su cintura para que pudiera moverse. Se había despertado cuando ella se tensó por primera vez, pero deseaba ver qué intentaría. Con los ojos muy abiertos le echó un vistazo al hombre que la tenía envuelta en su abrazo como a un tesoro precioso, su tesoro. Sus ojos dorados fundidos se abrieron y había una suavidad y deseo con los que la miraba. Aquellos suaves rizos marrones le caían sobre los ojos mientras olvidaba parpadear, observando la belleza eterna que era ella. Su fragancia única era una tortura para sus sentidos. —Cómo deseaba tomar su delicado tobillo, jalarla hacia él y tenerla esparcida bajo su cuerpo —murmuró—. Besar la misma piel que desprendía tal aroma que le estaba volviendo loco. En su lugar, dobló su brazo y lo colocó debajo de su mejilla usándolo como una almohada para mirarla con ojos llenos de deseo. El silencio incómodo entre ellos se prolongó mientras Cassandra se aclaraba la garganta. —¿Tenías que subirte sobre mí para dormir? —preguntó. —No fue intencional, pero ciertamente fue tentador y definitivamente no será la última vez —su voz profundamente hipnótica era aún más seductora temprano en la mañana cuando resonaba a su alrededor. La portada del libro es mía. ```

When their marriage of convenience deepens into a genuine partnership, a new challenge emerges in the form of a fated mate. Will Zara fight the dangers that await or embrace her true destiny? **EXCERPT** "I... didn't want to be late for work. You seemed busy, so I thought I'd get a head start." Snow raised an eyebrow. "Really? Or is it because last night affected you so much that you couldn't stand being around me?" "Don't flatter yourself, Snow. You didn't affect me at all." He smirked, stepping closer. "Is that so?" His fingers brushed my chin, tilting my face up. My pulse quickened. "We're at work," I snapped, swatting his hand away. "This isn't professional." "You're my wife," he murmured. "You're supposed to obey me at all times." I bit back a retort, a hint of rebellion flaring within. Slowly, I stepped closer, letting my fingers graze his chest. His smirk wavered for a second when his wolf reacted and Snow bit his lips. "Careful, Boss," I purred seductively. "Don't hurt those lips. I'm sure plenty of girls would love to kiss them." Snow leaned down, his lips brushing my ear. "And you? Are you dying for a taste?" Caught off guard, I hesitated, then regained my composure as I looked him in the eyes. "Unlike other girls, I have strong resistance against—" I didn't get a chance to finish when Snow's lips crashed onto mine with a fierce kiss that left me breathless. *************** MATURE CONTENT Participating in the Viral Book Call Contest.

Several decades since the last Human War, and the World is almost back at its former glory. The scars of the last War can now only be found in the history books. After two millennia of self destruction, humanity finally managed to unify as a group under the rule of the Six Council. Under its regime, the remaining 156 countries around the world swore an oath to work toward peace and harmony. War becomes a taboo, and any country who breaks this rule will be punished severely. Technology progresses relatively fast in this so-called Utopia. Full dive technology that allows the user to experience a dream like reality known as VR (Virtual Reality) became really popular especially to the gaming industry. A world to escape humanity’s Utopia. Unlike reality who is heavily regulated by the rules and regulations of the Six Council. Virtual Reality becomes a symbol of freedom, far from the shackles that binds the current society. 2064 Human Era, a VRMMO (Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online) game, was launched on its Closed BETA test, Hollow Earth Online. With the game under the most popular genres: Action, Fantasy, RPG (Role Playing Game), many people were keen to try and play the game. After all, HEO's predecessor Arcadia Online, a game released by Atlas Inc. several years ago that garnered a few million players around the globe. Unlike Arcadia, HEO’s world is scaled like the world, a virtual reality under a single instance. Just like a typical fantasy rpg, HEO has one thing that reality lacks, “Magic” a phenomena that can’t be explained nor recreated by science. A world where magic exists and you can be whatever you want, or so everyone thought. Several thousand players worldwide received invitations to participate in the three-day Closed Beta Test event. Asriel, a college student, was among those who received an invitation email from Atlas Inc. to partake in the event as a Beta Tester. HEO seemed like just another fantasy VRMMO from a well-known developer, living up to everyone's expectations. However, little did they know, it was actually the prelude to an apocalypse unlike anything humanity had faced in the last two millennia.

Amelia has slaved her whole life, working multiple jobs to help support her poor husband Caleb― only to discover he is a millionaire! When confronted, Caleb feels no guilt. He divorces her immediately to pursue his true love, leaving her with nothing to her name. “Kelsie is the woman that I love, the woman who truly deserves to be by my side,” Caleb said. “Now, sign the papers and I can end this farce of a marriage.” But thankfully, fate has yet to close all its doors on her. The messy breakup has led Amelia to meet the elusive Matteo Montgomery, the mysterious owner of X’el International Inc., and even though Amelia could have sworn that this is the first time they have ever met, Matteo seemed to hold more interest in her than ordinary. With her divorce finalized, Matteo’s courtship quickly grows more extravagant. He offers her everything, from a job as his secretary, a new penthouse apartment, and a permanent home in his heart. But just as Amelia’s heart begins to open up to Matteo’s sincerity, Caleb comes crawling back, determined to ruin her life. *** 【Excerpt】 “Oh?” Matteo asked, and Amelia caught a hint of amusement in his voice. “Then pray tell, what did we converse about?” Amelia swallowed. Good heavens, he was so close. She could barely even breathe, afraid that every movement she made would just amplify how loud her heartbeat was. It was racing like a bullet train at this point, and she felt it clog at her throat, refusing her a chance to speak. “I… I…I―” “I have no girlfriend, Amelia,” Matteo said. “And before you overthink, I do not have a wife in secret either.” His fingers didn’t let go of her wrist, and instead, it even tightened its grip. It wasn’t painful in the slightest, but it sent surges of electricity rushing through her body as though she had been struck by lightning in the most thrilling of ways. A coy smile curved his lips, and he leaned in just the slightest. His lips were now a hair’s breadth away from hers, and Amelia instinctively held her breath. “Unless, perhaps you would like to volunteer?”

TANITIM Aşk? Aşk mı? Evet sana aşıktım belki de hala öyleyim ama içimde senin aşkından daha büyük bir şey var. Daha güçlü bir şey. Beni her gün daha fazla tüketen bir şey. Nefret gibi ama değil daha büyük daha şiddetli bir şey. Nefretle aşk arasında çok ince bir çizgi vardı ve sen hep o çizginin üzerinde dolaştın. Belki de defalarca sınırı geçtin ama ben görmemeyi seçtim. Sonra bir gün bende bu oyundan sıkıldım. Çizginin üzerinde dolanmandan da buna gözlerimi kapatmaktan da sıkıldım. Sorunumuz sana aşık olmam değil o kısmı geçeli o kadar çok oluyor ki. Sorunumuz senin beni dönüştürdüğün şey, çünkü aşkım(!) Ben ilk tanıştığımızda bir çiçektim beni öpebilirdin koklayabilirdin sevebilirdin ama sen benim yapraklarımı koparmayı seçtin. Benimle beni parçalayarak oynadın. Sonra ben bir ateş oldum. Artık beni öpemezdin koklayamazdın sevemezdin. Seni yakardım. Bu bana yaklaşma demekti. Bu ben sessizce zarar vermeden yanıyorum demekti ama sen, sen beni yok etmek istedin. Sen yanmama bile izin vermedin. Yarattığın acıya bile saygın yoktu. Şimdi ben git gide büyüyen bir alev topuyum. Durmayacağım. Ta ki seni yakalayana kadar. Seni yakaladığımda etinin kemiğinden ayrıldığını hissedeceksin canın öyle yanacak ki yok olmak isteyeceksin ama ben buna izin vermeyeceğim. Seni yakıyor olmamın her anını zevkle izleyeceğim. Çünkü sevgilim, sen aşkın değerini bilemedin. Ama acının yaşattığı hissi hiç unutamayacaksın. Acı, seni bana tutsak edecek. Acı olduğu sürece hep benimle kalacaksın.

I, Eli Marks, was the illegitimate son of Gregory Marks the President of the Marks & Wills Foundation in Utah. Two years ago, I was saved by Utah Billionaire and Chairman Armand James of Armand Inc., as my father Gregory Marks whipped me for being disobedient at a VIP lounge in Salt Lake City: Hampton Inn. The two were born nemesis and never saw eye to eye as the two companies had competed for a decade. Two years later, Pa sent my profile to Chairman Armand's office after they advertised for an open position of a secretary for the Chairman without my knowledge. Pa insisted that I had to ensure that I was hired or else he would continue to brutally abuse me and make my mother suffer. If I were hired, I would become a spy for Pa, giving him all the trade secrets and dirt for Armand Inc. At the end of the interview, Chairman Armand announced that I had been hired. Hired by a Tyrant boss who controlled everything around him from his company to his family had even set rules around him making him the most feared and ruthless person in Utah. Armad had risen from the gutter and made my name for myself by leading the largest company in Utah and becoming the first bachelor billionaire to ever exist. The chemistry between us grew and our relationship developed so fast. But we both carried the burden from our past as the demons kept haunting us and pulling us apart. Will Armand ever forgive me when he finds out that I am a spy sent by Pa, to Infiltrate and get the dirt on Armand Inc.? Will the feelings we have for each other survive all the treachery of the corporate world? _______________________________________________________________________________________________ EXCERPT “Stop” I raised my hands in defense to keep the distance between Chairman Armand and me. “That my dear Eli Marks, is a vocabulary that does not exist in my life “He smirked down at me as he moved closer and pressed his body to mine. My hands ended up pressed on his chest as my eyes flashed in anger. I swallowed hard as I felt the sizzling chemistry that brewed between us rise and my bottom lip trembled as a result. “You are just proving to me what everyone in Utah says about you “I muttered through gritted teeth hoping my crude words would push him away and make him stop advancements. “Pray tell, what do they say about me, sweet Eli?” He drawled as his head lowered further and his lips were only inches away as our breaths tangled with each other and the scent of wine mingled between us. “That you, Armand James, are a Tyrant. “I blurted out. “Thank you for the compliment, Eli Marks “He smirked at me and my eyes widened at the realization that he was unfazed by my words, and in the next instant his lips brushed with mine and that is how we sealed our fate.

"Hi! My name is Mcbeth. Star Mcbeth. I’m the current CEO of “History and Fantasy Inc.” and might I add that my job is awesome! Here we write down great battles, world changing events, and pretty much anything that should be put in a history book. Now here is a secret. The “History” books are more fiction than truth, because the “winners of the fight” and “inventors” wanted to be remembered a certain way. The truth is our “Fictions” tell how things really happened. The reason why we do this is because most of the time the truth is so unbelievable that most people would prefer that it was fiction rather than truth. For example would you believe that Little Red Riding Hood was actually a feared monster hunter who specialized in killing werewolves even though she was only ten years old. Or that Jekyll and Hyde were actually two completely different people who worked under the Queen in order to create an elixir that allows people to live forever. The story you are about to read is the honest to Gods truth about what really happened in the past that shaped our world to what it is today. Well MY WORLD at least and to an extent your world too depending on which dimension you're currently residing in. Also this is the “Non-fiction” title of the book. The real title will be shared at a later date. And now I'm going on a tangent aren't I? Anyways! The only other thing you need to know is how I came to learn of all this. Well that's simple. It all started on the day I was called in by my boss for a promotion…….."

Known as the only daughter and soon-to-be CEO of Russel Clothing, Inc., Dana Russel made it to the top of Powerful Businesswomen’s List every year. Everything was going well but when her father died, her ascent to the business throne made her a devious and cold person, always hungry for success. She never lost a deal nor a client, and the company has boomed into one of the biggest moneymakers in the country. Everything seemed perfect, but not really. Being labelled as the Young Lady Tycoon, everyone assumes Dana’s living the ideal life but underneath the surface, hers is a rollercoaster ride. With no friends and family members to talk to, she only has a pile of papers and a fat bank account to comfort her at night. When she faced struggles that are way beyond her control, she met Ivor Lynch, the stranger who helped her once when she was in a difficult time and the owner of “He Brews”, a coffee shop just across her company. A college dropout, he managed to buy himself a space and start from scratch. Coming from two different worlds and having varied interests, the two discovered a fresh start for friendship… and something more. Balancing her role as a head of a company and establishing a successful relationship with Ivor was harder than Dana expected, making her choose between the two. In a world where you can’t be both and to choose one means losing the other, is Dana ready to let go of the only thing she loves the most?
