[Conteúdo adulto 18+. Sem estupro] "Sua cama está fria," disse uma voz no quarto que fez com que seus olhos se arregalassem de medo. Nervosamente, ela se virou, engolindo baixinho ao ver uma sombra em sua cama como se alguém estivesse deitado lá. O homem que estivera deitado se levantou surgindo das sombras onde estivera esperando por ela. "O que você está fazendo aqui?" ela perguntou quando os pés dele tocaram o chão e ele se empurrou para começar a caminhar em direção a ela. Seus traços bonitos pareciam mais sombrios do que o normal por causa da falta de luz no quarto. "Eu vim para te encontrar," ele inclinou a cabeça, "Para onde você foi?" "Eu saí para caminhar," veio a resposta rápida que o fez sorrir, um sorriso que a assustava mais do que tudo. Ela deu um passo para trás quando ele se aproximou dela. Isso não o impediu de encurralá-la, e suas costas bateram na parede atrás dela. Ele levantou a mão em direção ao rosto dela, e ela fechou os olhos, assustada. Ela estremeceu quando os dedos dele deslizaram do templo dela e pelo seu queixo e pescoço. Seus cabelos loiros estavam soltos. "No meio da noite?" ela não o respondeu sabendo que ele poderia decifrar suas mentiras pelas palavras dela. Ele deu um passo mais perto que fez com que ela virasse o rosto para longe dele e suas palavras vibraram na pele do pescoço dela, "Foi encontrar com ele, minha doce menina?"

For a year, they lived as distant strangers, their marriage bound by polite indifference.

After two years as empress, another imperial decree stripped her of her title, banishing her to the cold palace—a desolate prison where hunger and hardship became her only companions. Seraphina thought her suffering would eventually end. But the final blow came with a decree to confiscate her family’s wealth, destroying everything she once held dear. Only then did she realize that her marriage, her humiliation, and her suffering were all part of Lysander’s grand conspiracy. The man she once loved, dressed in white beneath the pear blossoms, was lost to her forever by his command. Escaping the clutches of death, Seraphina rose from the ashes of her ruined life.

—¿Quién te tocó? —preguntó él, su mirada sombría bajando hacia ella y cuando no respondió, su voz retumbó en la habitación—. ¿QUIÉN? —El mayordomo que estaba cerca de la pared habló temblorosamente: — Señor, fue el señor Reverale —la cara de Damien se tornó agria, su mandíbula marcándose en ira giró su rostro hacia el lado donde el mayordomo estaba detrás. —Tráiganme al hombre. —¿A-ahora? —tartamudeó el mayordomo—. Era la hora de la noche. Damien, que no había roto el contacto visual con la chica frente a él, empujó su mano contra la pared que ahora descansaba al lado de la cabeza de su hermosa chica. Girando su cuerpo, primero miró a su mayordomo que tenía la cabeza inclinada. Con gran coraje, el mayordomo alzó la vista para encontrarse con los ojos de su Amo: — ¿Tiene usted algún otro momento mejor? ¿O debería ser después de que le tuerza el cuello? —Damien preguntó con calma inclinando su cabeza—. No un segundo después, el mayordomo salió corriendo de la habitación para volver con el señor Reverale después de veinte minutos. —Damien, ¿vamos a tener una fiesta del té nocturna? —El señor Reverale vino a saludar pero el amo de la casa tenía otros planes—. Al ver el cuchillo que estaba clavado en la manzana sobre la mesa, lo alcanzó para sacarlo. Justo cuando el señor Reverale iba a intercambiar un apretón de manos con él, Damien tomó su mano para colocarla sobre la mesa. En un movimiento rápido como si estuviese cortando cebollas, cortó los cuatro dedos de la mano del hombre, haciéndole chillar y llorar de dolor. —Nadie toca lo que es mío. Estoy seguro de que esto te lo recordará la próxima vez que incluso pienses en tocarla —suspiró Damien como si estuviera cansado de decirle a la gente que mantuviera sus sucias manos lejos de sus pertenencias.

The last known continent, home to diverse kingdoms and mysterious ruins, is teeming with powerful magical creatures and relics of a forgotten age. New technologies—born of both arcane knowledge and scientific innovation—are being rapidly developed, yet remnants of the past linger, casting long shadows over the present. At the heart of this world are two kings, Caelan Althar and Dorian Valen, once childhood friends who now find themselves at odds.

(CONTAINS R18+ CONTENT) Enemies to lovers- check Slow burn- check A cute naughty dog- check Spice? (The author is keeping her mouth zipped) No third-party breakup or misunderstanding. But there are lots of banter and witty comebacks. (The story is planned to be around 200 chapters. No drag) Mu Yiren I never imagined I'd be faking a relationship with my biggest enemy—the untamed, ridiculously charming Feng Junjie, known throughout the city as the "golden boy" of business and a billionaire playboy with a reputation for breaking hearts. But when he dangles a life-changing offer in front of me, the kind that could secure my inheritance, I find myself agreeing to be his "girlfriend." But the thing is….. What if I start seeing the real him? Pretending to be Junjie’s devoted partner is like walking on a razor's edge. He’s everything I can’t stand—sexy, cocky, and devilish, and yet a sweetheart by heart that leaves me flustered by his actions. I know better than to fall for a man like him; my mother’s battle with Alzheimer’s has convinced me to never fall in love. But Junjie isn't just any man. Beneath his easygoing charm is an intensity that leaves me breathless, and he knows exactly how to crack through the walls I have built around me, awakening a passion I never felt before. JUNJIE I need my life back. A sorry attempt at love had me question everything and forced me away from my brothers. Since my ‘ex best friend’s’ constant accusations had gotten out of control, I might as well pretend to date someone and shut her mouth. My definition of a fake date- Beautiful, sexy, tempting…..umm…. insufferable, annoying, and with a mouth that won’t stop running. The mouth with red lipstick. The mouth I want to…. This arrangement was supposed to be simple: fake dating, clear boundaries, no feelings. But the more he plays the role of her devoted partner, the more the lines between fake and real start to blur. And now, he’s no longer sure where the act ends and his true feelings begin. The catch? Mu Yiren doesn’t believe in love. And she certainly doesn’t believe a man like Feng Junjie is capable of anything but heartbreak. But Feng has never been one to follow the rules. Boundaries? He’s about to break them. Deals? They were made to be rewritten. He’s going all in, and this time, he’s not playing pretend. ******* "Are you saying you'd let any man get this close?" "ABSOLUTELY NO!" The words burst out of me, too quick, too honest. His smirk deepens. "Tell me, if I leave you like this, all wound up and aching, will you be sneaking off to use one of your little toys?" "Yes," "Tell me, were you waiting for me to initiate something this past week?" he tugs my shorts more and kisses my navel. My heart hammers and my voice comes out shaky. "N-No." I won't give him the satisfaction of knowing he's right. He chuckles darkly. "Wrong answer. Let's try again." ****

United by their hatred of tyranny but divided by their ideals, the group must learn to trust each other as they unravel the mysteries of the empire’s power. From infiltrating heavily-guarded fortresses to uncovering allies in the most unlikely places, the rebellion wages a desperate war to reignite hope in a world consumed by despair. But with the empire’s grip tightening and betrayals lurking around every corner, can the rebellion rise like a phoenix from the ashes—or will they fall like countless others before them?

Following the two environmental cataclysms the world is mostly unhabitable. The remaining powers in the world have banded together to try and find a way to save humanity before the third cataclysm which will result in the end of the Earth. This story follows a few joys growing up in this world as they slowly discover the truth about themselves and the truth of the word they live in, all while trying to save humanity from multiple dangers before it’s too late. The story starts of slow, and progresses slowly at the start. It's because I'm trying to let Tenet grow and change slowly, my advice is to enjoy it before the novel picks up. I also try to limit any info dump, but I will slowly reveal more and more about the world as organically as I can, just try to be patient with me.
