Leo stared at her, his gaze lingering for a moment before he looked away, his expression unyielding. Nothing can make him fall in love with her. "Did you understand my terms?" he asked, his voice low and detached. "My lawyer will arrive soon, but first, I need you to understand." Abi's eyes fluttered open, her gaze meeting Leo's in the rearview mirror. "You told me that we are going to be married because of our scandal and the baby," she began, her voice even. "We are free to be in other relationships. We are not going to share any slightest form of intimacy, and we would go our separate ways when the baby is born. And, of course, I'll still have access to the baby." A small smile settled on his face, approval flickering in his eyes. "Seems like you're not that useless. You're a little smart." Abi's smile grew, a spark of pride igniting in her voice. "I was the most brilliant kid in my class. I had a GPA of 4.7 when I was graduating." Leo's smirk was lightning-fast. "That's so low. I would have graduated with a 10.0, but unfortunately, I was still the highest with a 5.0 in my department. You may go back to school to match my score."

Dr. Elias Vayne, a renowned archaeologist obsessed with lost civilizations, uncovers an ancient scroll that leads him to the barren heart of the desert. The scroll speaks of a forgotten empire, one that thrived in the shadows of history, ruled by god-like beings who granted their people unimaginable power—but at a terrible cost. Buried beneath the sands lies the key to their rise and eventual fall: a sealed tomb, hidden away for millennia, its entrance forgotten by time. Driven by the chance to rewrite history, Elias assembles a small team to unearth the secrets of this lost empire. But as they dig deeper, they begin to realize that some mysteries were never meant to be uncovered. Strange artifacts and cryptic symbols offer more questions than answers, while eerie dreams and whispered warnings haunt their every step. Inside the tomb, murals tell a story of a civilization at the height of its power, capable of controlling the very elements and bending reality itself. But the murals also depict the entity responsible for the empire’s downfall—a god-like being imprisoned within a black stone, locked away by those who feared the darkness it wielded. As Elias and his team venture further into the labyrinthine chambers of the tomb, the line between myth and reality begins to blur. The tomb itself seems alive, its ancient magic stirring as they disturb its long-forgotten secrets. With each new discovery, the entity within the stone grows closer to awakening, and Elias must confront the terrifying possibility that by unlocking the past, they may have unleashed an unspeakable force that could bring about the destruction of the modern world. The Sleeper Beneath is a dark, atmospheric exploration of obsession, power, and the dangers of delving too deep into the unknown. As Elias’s quest for knowledge spirals into a nightmare, he must decide whether to stop the entity’s awakening—or embrace the power it offers, even at the cost of his soul.

Working tirelessly in a high-rise office by day and studying for her business degree by night, she aims to prove that success can be built brick by brick.

On the other side of the city, Chen Kai, heir to a growing tech empire, navigates the gilded traps of wealth.

On Earth, she was many things, but the world knew her as a survivor—the kind willing to do whatever it took to make it through another day. In a destroyed, monster-filled wasteland, her weapon was seduction, her looks the only shield she had against death. Let them call her a slut; at least she was alive. But death never came. Instead, she finds herself in Jeper, a strange, seductive world ruled by powerful alien beings. And among them stands Caelum, an enigmatic, infuriatingly confident alien leader with a presence she can’t ignore. His dark gaze sees through her games, his every word a challenge, and for the first time, she finds herself unarmed in ways she can’t control. Now, with survival at stake and no way back to Earth, she must navigate Jeper’s dangers—and resist Caelum, even if everything in her longs to fall into his grasp. ************ She hadn’t planned on running into Caelum tonight—not here, not like this, with her heart pounding and her carefully practiced confidence crumbling under his gaze. The cold stone corridor felt smaller as he approached, his footsteps barely making a sound, yet the weight of his presence pressed down on her, making it impossible to focus on anything else. “You seem… lost,” he murmured, a wicked smile ghosting over his lips as he closed the distance between them. His voice was a rich, silken drawl, his tone unreadable, like he knew every thought swirling in her head. She fought the urge to step back, to shield herself from the effect he had on her. Caelum wasn’t just another alien ruler to charm her way past—he was dangerously perceptive, with an intensity that twisted her stomach in ways she wasn’t used to. “What makes you think I’m lost?” she replied, trying for defiance. But he just leaned in, the faintest hint of a smirk tugging at his lips as he tilted his head. “Because the woman I’ve heard about, the one who survived Earth’s ruins by any means necessary… she doesn’t look away.” His gaze slid down her face, lingering just enough to make her throat go dry. "And she wouldn’t let a place like Jeper scare her.” She forced herself to meet his eyes, to ignore the steady pulse of heat building between them. She was supposed to be in control; that was how she’d survived. But Caelum was close enough that his breath brushed her cheek, and the way he looked at her made her wonder if maybe, just maybe, there were parts of her she hadn’t yet discovered. “Maybe Jeper’s different,” she whispered, trying to keep the trembling out of her voice. Caelum leaned in even closer, his lips brushing the shell of her ear as he murmured, “Then show me what makes you strong enough to survive it ******** This is not my cover I found it on Pinterest
