Jin Yeong was just another office worker—forgettable, unremarkable, and stuck in a life that never went anywhere. He wasn’t strong. He wasn’t talented. In a world of ambition, he was just… there. Then, the sky cracked open. A voice echoed across the world, mocking humanity’s weakness. A system was given. A chance to survive. People awakened powerful abilities—fire, lightning, super strength. Jin got this: [Limitless Weapon Mastery] "Any weapon you wield is used at its maximum potential." No fire. No magic. No enhancements. Just a simple skill? But soon he and the world will learn a simple truth: It’s not about what you wield. It’s about how you wield it.

"I'm rock hard because of you, Aria," he whispered seductively beside her ear, his voice low and husky, making her brain go numb as he continued, "You turned me on.... So how do you intend to calm the fire burning inside me?" ***** Born into a royal family that despises her, Aria lives a life of neglect and cruelty. Her parents despise her for being a girl. Forced to live like a servant Aria endures years of humilation. But on her eighteenth birthday, a devastating curse awakens—a dark magic tied to her bloodline that makes her irresistible to any man, including her own foster brothers. The curse doesn't just ensnare those around her—it forces Aria herself to crave the forbidden, lustful and intimate moments from her foster brothers, leaving her trapped in a tormenting cycle of desire and shame. As their desires spiral out of control and Aria battles the curse's torment, she learns there is only one way to break it: true love. But in a world of forbidden lust, dangerous secrets, and betrayal, can Aria find salvation—or will she surrender to the seductive pull of the curse? Weak to strong (Yes) Forbidden desire (") Face slapping. (") Action. (") Smut (Yes of course a lot)

Born with the cursed mark of the forgotten House of Hestia, Kael Ashen was destined for greatness—or so the gods claimed. Instead, he lived as a slave, mocked and beaten by the descendants of the Twelve, the powerful ruling families who wield the gods’ gifts as their own. When Kael’s defiance leads to his brutal death at the hands of Zeus’ heirs, his mark awakens a power greater than anyone could imagine. Thrown back to his younger self, Kael now has a second chance to rewrite his fate. The Twelve may rule from their thrones of privilege, but Kael knows their secrets and their weaknesses. With his fiery determination and the potential to surpass even the gods, he will rise from the ashes of his fallen house. The gods gave him this mark. Now, Kael will use it to destroy everything they stand for.

When Aria turned five her grandmother told her that their family has never been blessed with a mate and not having a mate doesn't mean they won't find love. When Aria turned eighteen, her desire to have a mate became stronger because her best friend whom she had a crush on found his mate and the pure joy in his eyes when he told her about the mate bond, place a emptiness in her heart. "You are special, Aria. You have the power to turn back time." That was what her grandmother told her when she claimed she was cursed and even though she was not satisfied with that answer, she never asked again. Two years later, Aria got a call from the hospital and found out that her grandmother has been poisoned and the only way for her to save her grandmother was to accept this deal made by the Alpha of the Shadow Moon pack "Marry Alpha Tristan, have him fall for you and then kill him." It was the only way to saved her grandmother so she agreed despite knowing that she was walking into a lion den, because how was she going to kill a man who despite losing both his sight and his mate, command enough power and authority to still be called a Alpha. How will Aria feel when she realized that the man she has been task to kill has been waiting for her for five lifetimes and have just two years left to live? What situation will Aria find herself that will require her to turn back time and what price will she pay for altering time itself? ----------- Excerpt Aria felt uneasy by his silence and wondered if it was the right moment to use the techniques, Hailey has taught her. Taking a deep breath, Aria stepped closer and closed her eyes as she brushed her lips against Tristan's. Tristan stiffened when he felt her lips on his and without thinking, he immediately pushed her away. Seeing the angry look on his face, Aria felt like it was all over; she was definitely going to be killed now. But Tristan expression was shadowed by more than anger. How had she gotten so close without him sensing her? And why--why was his heart racing like this?

[WARNING: MATURE CONTENT] I yanked at my wrist, trying to pull free, but his grip didn’t budge. “Let me go,” I said, surprised by how weak I sounded but for goodness sake, this is an elementary school restroom hallway, meaning anyone might walk in at any moment. “No.” He leaned in, his breath warm against the side of my neck. My skin prickled as my toes curled, I hated how my body reacted without my permission. “You’re mine,” he whispered, “Every part of you, your fear, your silence, even that defiance you’re clinging to. It’s all mine. And I’m not about to let anyone else touch or have what belongs to me. Not the world, not even yourself.” **** Kain Locke would never forget that face, the face of the man who smiled as he pulled the trigger, murdering his parents right in front of him. That moment scarred him for life, carving a hatred so deep it kept him alive. That man was Caspian Draeven, a ruthless Alpha who ruled the underworld with fear and bloodshed and as if that wasn't enough, he took Kain too, raising him in his empire of chaos. But Kain wasn’t broken as they expected him, rather, he was burning. Burning with hatred for the man who destroyed his world and he swear to get his revenge. However, Caspian wasn’t the only monster in the Draeven family. His son, Kael Draeven, was just as dangerous, cold, brutal, and utterly loyal to his father which makes Kain hated Kael just as much, if not more. For years, Kain planned his escape, waiting for the perfect moment so he can leave to prepare for his revenge. However when he finally ran, he thought he’d won his freedom. But the unexpected happens when Kael was sent to bring him back, and their confrontation took an unplanned turn. A single night left Kain with a secret he never saw coming and a bond he couldn’t forget, no matter how much he wanted to. But secrets have a way of coming to light, and Kain’s path will lead him straight back to the man he swore to hate forever. Because some bonds can’t be broken. Not even by revenge. ______________________________________ H_Hannie THIS BOOK IS A BL: MEANING IT FOCUSES ON ROMANCE BETWEEN THE SAME GENDER. kindly skip if this type of genre isn't your cup of tea.

So basically, I'm the weakest Warrior in existence. Ain't that something? But you know what? That's also fine, 'cause I don't care... No really I don't. It's true, stop doubting me already, I can see your face through the fourth-wall! Yeah, that's right, better watch yourself. So what if I'm the weakest Warrior, huh?
