Beaufort Lancaster has always known himself to be a sinner—a man with little to no intention of marriage, a man, or better, a lover who enjoys the thrill that comes with women bound to duty—especially those who belong to other men. However, what was once a game, a thrill, shifts dangerously once he meets Lady Louisa Lancaster, his brother’s wife—Andrew Lancaster. Andrew Lancaster is mad. Not mad in the way men are described as eccentric, temperamental, hard nuts to crack, illogical, impediments, imbeciles... No! The man is truly lost to the grip of madness. His world and reality align in different diversions. His marriage to Louisa is a hollow arrangement, void of warmth or desire. Yet, bound by duty and title, she remains his! Beaufort never thought himself capable of true love—until her. What begins as a fascination, mere attraction to another married woman, transforms into something unbearable. He thinks about her more often than he should. He watches her more closely than is right. He delights in spending more time with her than he should. And the breaking point comes when he finds himself in her room, out of a slight argument, one fateful evening. A kiss. A touch. Nothing more. But it is enough to undo him! Wracked with guilt and the weight of his transgression, Beaufort flees Lancaster for London, seeking refuge in the arms of God. Priesthood, he believes, shall cleanse him—will rid him of her. Yet, even within the monastery, the ghost of Lady Louisa haunts him—her scent, her touch, the whisper of her name, her smile. They all linger in the quiet halls filled with souls embracing celibacy. But he was never celibate! How could he be if he thinks? If he thinks rather sexually of another human being he wished to rid himself of? Worse—his brother’s property? And so he flees! The cloth of fatherhood or brotherhood can never silence the call of his heart. Salvation is a word, and he, of all people, shall have a different case scenario on the Day of Judgment! What happens? In His Sins is a tale of forbidden love, guilt, and the haunting grip of desire, set against the rigid moralities of the Victorian era. Enjoy!

A Few Warnings for the Reader: This short novel is written for people who appreciate Japanese anime – a worldwide community numbering in the hundreds of millions. It's important to understand from the start that anime is not just "children's cartoons," as animation is often perceived in places like Europe and the USA. Anime represents a distinct form of animation and a significant cultural force, almost like "super-cinema." It can be incredibly dynamic and explore serious themes. Now, let's be honest, a large portion of anime is… not great. Maybe around 90% could be considered simply "okay" or even, let's say, "trashy." It can be blatant, silly, and not particularly engaging. Many viewers watch one of these less impressive shows and then assume all anime is similar. But that's a mistake! Understand this: by doing that, you're missing out on potentially the most captivating entertainment of your life. That's not an exaggeration – it's a genuine perspective. But the remaining 10%? That's where the true "super-cinema" lies. Good anime is unmatched in its ability to tell emotionally resonant stories and deliver dynamic action. Anime creators are free to push boundaries. Their imaginations delve into the complexities of the human heart, challenging the common "European view" that restricts animation to children. This story(it's not a Fanfiction!) is a tribute to a classic anime called "Fate." Fate is not my personal absolute favorite – there are masterpieces which incredibly hard to surpass. But still, it's a powerful example of the story started as a simple eroge and converted to a deeply emotional cult film.

Will she be able to resist his seductive charms and complete her mission, or will her blackened heart be conquered by the very man she seeks to destroy?

[ WARNING: NOT REVERSE HAREM.GORE. RUTHLESS FML. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.] Betrayed. Abandoned. Trapped in the Demon Realm for a thousand years. Once, she was the brilliant strategist of the hero party—a mere mortal among overpowered legends, outwitting enemies with nothing but her mind. But when victory was within reach, her so-called “allies” sacrificed her to seal away the Demon King, leaving her to rot in a realm of monsters. A thousand years passed in the Demon Realm… but in the real world? Only ten years. Now she’s back. Stronger. Smarter. Pissed. The world has changed—skyscrapers, technology, a society that doesn’t even remember her betrayal. But her traitorous ex-party? They’re still alive, thriving, and completely unaware that their worst nightmare just returned. There’s just one problem. The seven deadliest demons she given to her in the Demon Realm—each embodying one of the Seven Deadly Sins—have followed her into the human world. And somehow, they’re filthy rich, dangerously powerful, and ridiculously attractive. But all she wants is revenge and all they want is her. Can she carry out her master plan while dealing with seven possessive, overpowered, and dangerously handsome husbands? Or will she lose herself in their chaotic love first? One thing’s for sure—they won’t let her go without a fight.

Apostles of Sins Sinopse: Soshi sempre viveu uma vida comum—até o dia em que o céu se tingiu de vermelho e Noah, o Herói Supremo, desceu dos céus com uma única missão: matá-lo. Abençoado pela Divindade Suprema, Noah era considerado invencível, e seu ataque esmagador destruiu tudo que Soshi conhecia. Mas quando deveria morrer, algo despertou dentro dele. A Ira. Marcado como uma ameaça ao equilíbrio do mundo, Soshi agora é caçado pelos Dez Mandamentos—guerreiros que receberam poderes diretamente do Rei Demônio. Com inimigos em todos os lados e forças que desafiam os próprios deuses, ele precisa descobrir a verdade por trás de sua existência e enfrentar aqueles que decidiram seu destino antes mesmo de seu nascimento. O mundo está à beira do caos, e a fúria de Soshi pode ser a chave para derrubar deuses e demônios.

The Heavenly Dao exists. It decides what is right and what is wrong. To act against it is to sin, to act according to it is to be blessed by its graces. The world of cultivation is difficult, an unchanging principle. Yet there are those who are cherished by the Heavens, cuddled into rising above all and everyone else. How can this be? Why must this be? What is moral and just? What is evil and immoral?! WHY DOES IT GET TO DECIDE?! So we, the Sinners, we act against the Heavenly Daos, grasp our own fates in hopes of truly overturning them. This is a Journey of a young boy born Blessed, but turned Sinner. The greatest sinner of them all. ----- As some of you may know, I'm also the Author of Consuming Earths, Devouring Skies! This is my second project, and one I'm incredibly passionate about!

Destinee is a woman who lived her life through nothing but her sins and carnal desires. She never once looked back on her mistakes due to her pride, which corrupted her mind until that pride slowly turned to hubris. When Jesus returned and took all of his faithful servants to paradise, this left the nonbelievers and sinners to traverse a world with little left and diminishing signs of God's protection. Unfortunately, that wasn't the end. The sinners with sins that consumed their entire lives gained these tattoos known as Marks of the Beast and were given curses that granted them supernatural abilities, but each time these sinners used these powers, they would suffer the backlash of their sins within their minds and souls.

His life—a series of glamorous events and magazine covers—offers no escape from the emptiness that lurks beneath.

Sinister Krylov, the feared head of a Bratva syndicate, is used to manipulating the shadows. The gala is just another move in his deadly game.

But their meeting ignites something neither of them expects—a raw attraction that threatens to unravel their carefully guarded worlds. As their connection deepens, Evyan finds himself thrust into a dangerous underworld of power, betrayal, and deadly secrets. Evyan becomes a pawn in a deadly game of love, hate, and vengeance. Sinister, drawn to the model’s hidden depths, finds himself torn between the icy walls he’s built and the vulnerability Evyan exposes.

Will Evyan be able to survive the darkness that Sinister embodies, or will he lose himself in the twisted game of love and betrayal? One thing is certain—nothing is as it seems, and their lives will never be the same.

This isn't your typical romance novel...unless you consider drowning the love of your life as part of the classic rom-com formula. I let my pride take the wheel and oopsies daisies, silly me! Honestly, it’s kind of funny—if you like dark humor and awkward situations. I thought this river was just your average body of water, but turns out, life loves throwing curveballs. Now, we have to break this curse or we knows how long we'll be stuck here. Weeks? Months? Years? This novel has it all: comedy, mystery, slice of life, revenge (because apparently that’s what happens when you kill someone), and the supernatural (because why not?). The tone can get a bit dark sometimes, but hey, at least the comedy and slice of life stuff will keep you from crying too much.

He fights for survival. She fights for love. In the brutal world of underground boxing, where fists carve destinies and love is a dangerous game, Alexander "The Revenant" Voss is a man haunted by demons. Scarred by a childhood of violence and a past soaked in blood, he believes he is incapable of love—until he meets Eve Laurent, a psychologist who sees through his armor. Their romance is as dark as it is beautiful, built on pain, passion, and the promise of something neither of them truly believes they deserve. But love is never enough. When the past returns with a vengeance, Alexander is forced to choose between redemption and destruction, between the ring and the woman who holds his fragile soul. In the end, some battles can only be won by losing everything.
