Dragon'S Crown

I died in an explosion—a betrayal engineered by the man I trusted most. But instead of the end, I woke up in a new body. A noblewoman’s body. Evelina, disgraced and hated, accused of poisoning the Crown Prince of a kingdom where werewolves rule the land. And worse? The man whose life I supposedly tried to end is now my fated mate. Damian, the Crown Prince, is as cold as the moonlight that binds us, his piercing silver eyes filled with distrust every time they land on me. He doesn’t believe my innocence, and frankly, I don’t care. My only priority is survival in this dangerous, medieval world—and figuring out why fate decided to shove me into the life of a traitor. But the longer I’m near Damian, the harder it is to ignore the pull between us—the undeniable heat of the mate bond that makes his touch electric and his presence intoxicating. Enemies lurk in the shadows, including the woman who thinks she should be his Luna. Court intrigue spirals out of control, and the person behind Evelina’s betrayal might be closer than I realize. Damian’s trust is my only shield, but when the truth of my transmigration comes to light, I’m not sure even that will be enough to save me. Because in this world, it’s not love that conquers all—it’s power. And mine might not be enough.

Hwayeong’s peaceful life is turned upside down when her younger sister, inspired by rumors about the Crown Prince’s less-than-stellar appearance, submits her name for the Crown Princess selection without her consent. For Hwayeong, who loathes the very idea of stifling palace life, it’s a nightmare come to life. So, she comes up with a cunning plan: To delay her arrival at the imperial palace no matter what! However, her carefully laid plans are thrown into chaos when, out of nowhere, a galloping horse nearly tramples her. Furious at the reckless rider, she takes off after him through the bustling streets, her anger fueling every step. It’s only when she skids to a stop, heart pounding, that she looks up and realizes she’s standing before the towering gates of the very place she swore she would never go. “I won’t let this slide. Just you wait!” Confronting the rider later that evening, Hwayeong demands an apology, but instead of showing remorse, he arrogantly dismisses her complaint. Enraged, she impulsively hurls her shoe at his back in an act of defiance. Days later... Her frustration turns to horror when she learns the man’s true identity—he’s none other than the Crown Prince himself, the very focus of the competition she’s been dragged into. Though initially panicked, Hwayeong refuses to give up. Her new goal? Become such a nuisance to the Crown Prince that he’ll have no choice but to kick her out and send her back home! Unfortunately, the Crown Prince has no intention of playing along with her schemes... “You’ll stay here for six full months—completely, properly, and absolutely trapped!” Now caught in a battle of wills, Hwayeong must decide: Can she outsmart the Crown Prince and escape the confines of the palace, or will her rebellion only tighten the chains around her? #Romance #Comedy #Romanticcomedy #History #Loyalty #Prince #Unrulyheroine Text copyright ⓒ 2024 by JeongHyun All right reserved.

Born to be King, unrivaled in all ages. Dragon King Hall, the most mysterious and ancient organization in the world.

The once-proud Empire of Regganor - a conquering nation that had once towered over human and non-human realms alike - has fallen into a quickly crumbling Kingdom after the loss of a decisive war. Now, with less than a third of their forces remaining and another war brimming on the horizon, lifelong friends and Knights of a secret order, Alwyn and Orwick, have been selected to accompany and defend two mysterious outsiders on a quest that will determine the fate of their homeland. The only problem is, neither of them know how.

Akash, a boy shunned by his village, seeks to gain admiration and reunite with his friends by proving his worth in the war-torn sands of Reem. His fight for respect and connection propels him through trials that test his resolve, courage, and the depths of his humanity. Daenys never wished to lead, but destiny had other plans. Thrust into prominence amidst a feud between the kingdom of Astad and the kingdom of Estil, she must navigate the treacherous waters of politics and power. Her journey is one of reluctant acceptance, as she transforms into the leader her people desperately need. Mirak is driven by an insatiable desire to understand the magic that shapes their world. His quest leads him into the clutches of an empire, where he becomes enslaved as a Publici. Determined to break free, he must master the very magic that binds him, turning his chains into sources of strength and liberation. Unbeknownst to them, hungering gods pick at the carcass of a dying world—a time when the Infinite Arcana was whole, unbroken into Essences, and humanity remained in the dark. For over one hundred centuries, the Ninth Age of Stagnation has reigned, bringing war, strife, and the suffocation of knowledge. In a world teetering on the edge, will these unlikely contenders rise to become heroes, or will the malicious powers that haunt their steps consume them entirely?

Ren Liang was born weak. Frail in body, cursed by fate, and mocked for his white hair and blue eyes, he was little more than a ghost in the village of Jinxi—a boy bound by his own limits. Unable to cultivate, unable to fight, and abandoned by the world, his only choice was to endure the ridicule of others while dreaming of a strength he could never grasp. Until he stumbled upon the shattered remains of a forgotten artifact. The Shard of the Infinite, an object of power lost to time, merges with Ren’s very soul, granting him the ability to duplicate anything—a stone, a blade, a treasure. Yet power always comes at a price, and each use drains his frail body to its breaking point. Hunted by cultivators, stalked by beasts, and burdened by his own weakness, Ren is forced to flee into a world of ruthless sects, ancient ruins, and untold wonders. But survival is only the beginning. As he discovers the shard’s true potential, Ren begins to carve a path of his own—one paved in shadows, blood, and ambition. Those who mocked him will kneel, those who betrayed him will fall, and those who underestimated him will learn the truth: Beneath his name’s promise of virtue lies something far darker. From the ashes of weakness, a tyrant will rise. From the edge of despair, an empire will be born. And in a world where power is everything, Ren Liang will take his place— Crowned in Shadows.

What makes dragons strong? It's not their power or magic, but their mind. Arrogance, greed, Iron Will, and the lack of human restraints. What would happen if you threw such a creature into human society? Would they understand humans? What does love even mean to them? This is the situation that our MC, Arad Orion found himself in. A newborn dragon bringing "Might make Right" to the humanoids, but why? Due to an abnormal condition, the mighty void dragons are on the brink of extinction. Their bodies have suddenly started rejecting their kind. Due to that, Arad's mother dropped his egg into a forest where he could hatch safely, leaving him with a fragment of her consciousness and informing him of the condition of their race. From that point, his goal became clear. To save their race by either finding a cure for their condition or going the second route of making more void dragons. But, sadly, nothing is ever that easy. Finding a cure is almost impossible. Arad is still practically a newborn and cannot tap into the terrifying might of his race, and his rarity makes him a prime target for mages and scholars seeking to study the dying race. Dragons are arrogant, proud, and vicious. Yet those feeling extends to those whom they love. You who touched a dragon's love, Retribution is an insult, and life is a crime. Beware as merely existing draws the dragon's wrath. Follow Arad on his journey as he grows from a naive wyrmling to a grown dragon with enough wisdom and power to stand with the strongest of the world. *** If you liked the story, please support it with power stones and comments!

Seeing him smirk she forced herself to get comfortable as he spoke. “That’s more like it. You said it yourself that no one forced you into marrying me.
