His Dark Materials Lyra

“I want you to be my submissive.” If homicide detective Cassandra Pratt had to describe Havenfield in three words, they would be ‘small,’ ‘inconspicuous,’ and ‘boring.’ But when a series of gruesome murders shatter the town's peace, Cass is thrust into a hunt for a killer with no identity. Stumbling upon a vampire was never part of the plan, but Uriel Serpov has never been one to follow plans. Uriel is infuriating, enigmatic, and undeniably attractive. Worst of all, he knows Cass’s darkest secret—the very one that keeps her isolated from the rest of the town. Behind his sharp smile and smoldering eyes, Uriel harbors secrets of his own, and now Cass’s only hope of solving the serial murders lies through him. The line between duty and desire quickly blurs. Will Cass solve the case? Or will the heat between them consume her? Additionally tags: slow burn, bd//sm, power play

In a world where empires rose and fell by the sword, power was the blood that coursed through the veins of history. Rulers, shaped by ambition, built their legacies on the bones of the conquered, their dominance seemingly eternal. Yet, eternity proved a fragile illusion when the skies shattered, and the land itself was torn asunder by a force beyond understanding. The great nations of the past—Macedon, the Mongols, Byzantines, Aztecs, and more—were cast into Eldoria, an alien realm of unfathomable beauty and chaos. Eldoria, a world where the laws of nature bend and magic pulses through the very air, is both a haven and a crucible. It offers both untold power and an untamable threat. For Alexander the Great, once a conqueror of men, survival here demands more than military might. To endure, one must adapt to this land's ever-changing face. But survival is only one battle. Eldoria itself is a living entity, its ancient powers awakening, and the native Eldorians view the invaders as a corruption threatening the balance of their world. Amidst this chaos, figures from history—betrayed, forsaken, and driven by vengeance—are reborn as wild cards. Joan of Arc, the Flame Witch, stands as a fiery force of destruction, her quest for vengeance no longer bound by faith but driven by the fires of her rebirth. As the factions clash in a deadly struggle for dominance, their ancient legacies become nothing more than whispers in the storm. The land stirs with the prophecy of a reckoning, where the gods of Eldoria will decide the fate of the invaders. Their wars are not just for survival but for the right to reshape a world that could either empower them or obliterate them. In a land where eternity is earned, the empires that once believed themselves eternal must prove their worth—or be erased from history forever.

"Lyra Everdawn: Las Sombras del Crepúsculo" En un mundo donde la magia es la esencia de todo lo que existe, la princesa Lyra Everdawn vive atrapada en el vacío de su propia indiferencia. Renacida en un reino gobernado por la magia, el combate y la política, Lyra se ha desconectado por completo de lo que otros consideran las razones de la vida: el amor, el poder, el honor. Para ella, todo es una ilusión pasajera, una trama que, aunque jugada por muchos, carece de significado. Con su belleza helada, su alma vacía y sus ojos de azul cristalino, Lyra observa el mundo desde la distancia, sin esperanza ni deseo. El matrimonio arreglado con el príncipe Kaelen Draelthorn, un acuerdo entre reinos, no es más que otro juego de poder en el que no tiene interés, pero al que está obligada a participar. Sin embargo, todo toma un giro inesperado cuando Alex Albión, un misterioso estudiante recién llegado a la Academia de Magia de Everdawn, entra en la vida de Lyra. Con una actitud despectiva y un aire de diversión insostenible, Alex se comporta como si todo esto no fuera más que un juego de citas, casi como si estuviera jugando un otome, un romance ficticio de su propia invención. No le importa el caos de la corte ni las expectativas que pesan sobre Lyra, pero su presencia intrigante empieza a desatar una serie de eventos que alteran la frágil indiferencia de la princesa. Alex, con su desdén hacia las normas del mundo y su constante sonrisa juguetona, parece estar perfectamente consciente de algo que Lyra no puede comprender: el destino de ambos podría estar entrelazado de una manera que desafía las leyes de la realidad. ¿Es posible que Alex Albión sea también una reencarnación, atrapado en este ciclo eterno junto a Lyra? Si es así, ¿qué busca realmente, y por qué juega con las emociones de todos a su alrededor como si fuera un simple entretenimiento? A medida que Lyra y Alex se cruzan en el terreno de la magia y la política, se revelan secretos ocultos, y otros estudiantes misteriosos, igualmente fascinados por Lyra, comienzan a emerger. Estos estudiantes, algunos con habilidades únicas y otros con un amor casi devocional por la princesa, la ven no solo como una figura de poder, sino como una diosa a quien adorar. ¿Será que los seguidores de Lyra, atrapados en sus propias ilusiones, buscan algo más allá de la magia o el deber? ¿O quizás están buscando una verdad más profunda que ni siquiera ellos comprenden? "Lyra Everdawn: Las Sombras del Crepúsculo" es una historia de misterio y nihilismo, donde el amor es solo una farsa, la magia es un medio vacío, y el destino parece solo un juego sin fin. Con Alex Albión y otros misteriosos personajes que parecen saber más de lo que dicen, Lyra deberá enfrentar no solo las expectativas de su reino, sino los secretos oscuros de su propia existencia. ¿Serán estos estudiantes como ella, reencarnaciones atrapadas en una trama infinita? ¿Y será posible que incluso en la indiferencia y el vacío, puedan encontrar algo que desafíe el fin de todo?

Child of a monster grew into a victim of his own sick fantasies. This story isn’t about love, it never was. You as a reader have to know that.

Hell is empty and all the devils are here. Shakespeare – [The Tempest] As a form of punishment for mistakenly killing an innocent civilian, Song Zhuyu, a priest and part-time exorcist, found himself exiled to the distant shores of Shenci Island, hundreds of miles away from his hometown and the only city he had ever known his whole life. However, unbeknownst to anyone, he harbored a secret agenda— to hunt down the culprit who had turned his life upside down. Fully prepared for meeting danger at every turn, what he encountered instead was a beautiful, serene island, albeit with two strange ironclad rules: First, do not climb the hill after 1 AM. Second, do not interact with Rui Ye. On the first night of his stay, Song Zhuyu broke two of the taboos, only to discover that the infamous Rui Ye was nothing like he had expected. “I am cursed,” the blind, beautiful man told him with a wistful smile. “If you associate yourself with me, the curse will haunt you too.” In response, Song Zhuyu’s lips hooked into a careless smile, “I don’t think you have to worry about that. I, myself, am cursed as well. What’s the big deal about adding another one?” But as inexplicable deaths began to plague the island, Song Zhuyu realized that the island, including the helpless and soft-hearted Rui Ye he had come to know, held a far darker secret than he could've ever imagined. In a race against time, he must navigate the treacherous waters of deceit and betrayal to unravel the island’s sinister truth and achieve his goal before it's too late. *** Pretty, flirtatious yet heartless priest gong x blind, mysterious and cursed shou Additional tags: gong/seme/top protagonist, action, mystery, suspense, horror, psychological, thriller, dark elements, angel and demons, slow romance, murder, crime, beautiful protagonist, older love interest, 1 vs 1, dubcon, supernatural creatures, exorcism, tragedy, past plays a big part Find me on: Instagram: delanasiwarka Discord server: bit.ly/delanadiscord
