His voice was low, almost a growl, but there was a hint of something else beneath — something that made her heart skip a beat. She swallowed hard, her throat dry. The question hung in the air between them, heavy and tangible. "I… I don't know," She finally answered, her voice barely above a whisper. His lips curled into a smirk, a slow, dangerous smile that sent shivers down her spine. "Liar" he murmured, his voice a deep rumble that vibrated through her. "You want this. You want me." She opened her mouth to protest, to deny it, but he didn't give her a chance. His hand shot out, gripping her chin roughly, forcing her to look up at him. "Do you want me to prove it?" He asked, his voice dripping with challenge. ~+~ Tags: #Revenge #Strongfemalelead, #norape, #reincarnation, #Fakeidentity, #EdwardianEra, #VampireRomance #Smut #Supernaturalpowers #magic #darkfantasy #long-distance pining (The main characters are aware of each other's feelings but can't be physically be together yet.

The idea of an identical double of oneself is part of ancient German legends, a myth that has survived in various forms to this day. It is a subject full of mystery, a concept that inspires shocking stories, such as seeing one's own double and suffering a misfortune or a curse. Although, in strictly rational terms, these stories are nothing more than unscientific myths. Ethan's sister thought so too, until she was faced with what was in front of her. A doppelganger... Meeting one should be something unreal, something disposable; but what if someone's double was right next to you? The essence of a person cannot be defined in a single word. It is made up of their experiences, the places they have visited, their environment... Could there really be someone in the world capable of replicating all that? At first, the idea seems absurd. It is irrational. If someone familiar appeared, one would instantly notice any difference. And if you don't notice... are you just naive? Thinking logically, that's reasonable. Therefore, Ethan's sister couldn't understand what she had just heard. "You mean to tell me that you are my brother Ethan, the real one who disappeared in 2028, and that he is just your double?" In front of Ethan's sister stood two men identical in appearance and complexion. The year 2028... That was the year of "The Final Judgement" on Earth, when portals opened and released monstrous creatures, and there were those who "Awoke" with special powers. The coincidence was impeccable. October 26, 2028. That day was not only the final judgement; it was also the birthday of both men in front of her. One claimed to have been transported to a strange world called "Terra Abismo" and that he had just returned that day; the other insisted that it was absurd, that he had never left. Today is October 31, 2038. A day when children should be playing and laughing, and instead, this. Evidently, one of them is lying. Ethan's sister exhaled, frustrated. "This is crazy." It sounds like something out of a novel. A novel in which doubles exist.

Blurb: “Your Alpha thinks a wolfless girl can’t be the Luna.” Rachael replied. “My Alpha had suggested more suitable options should stay around Alpha Sebastian till he makes a decision.” My heartbeat quickened as anger rose from my stomach at being called a wolfless girl again. Can’t be a Luna? I snapped my head to Alpha Sebastian and he didn’t even look at me. Suitable options? Decision? My fists clenched. “What decision—” Alpha Sebastian left his seat suddenly and I stepped back on impulse. His gaze finally landed on me and a suppressed whimper left me. His blue eyes slowly darkened to red. “Seraphina Renaud.

Eira Kingston, a feared assassin, never imagined that death would lead her to transmigrate into the body of Ephyra Allen, the disgraced first daughter of the once-powerful Allen family. But what shocked her even more was the soft mechanical voice in her mind, addressing her as "master" and informing her that her soul had returned to its original body. Eira dismissed the strange voice, thinking she was having a post-death hallucination. But waking up in a hospital, with memories that weren’t hers flooding back, she was forced to confront the truth. Ephyra’s life had been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite being the legitimate daughter, she was labeled a bastard, shunned by all, and overshadowed by her scheming stepsister, who had stolen the love of her father and her betrothed. To make matters worse, the wealth and status the Allen family enjoyed were all thanks to Ephyra’s late mother, and the only reason she hadn’t been discarded entirely was due to her mother’s inheritance, locked away until she turned eighteen. But Eira wasn’t one to be defeated by circumstances. If she was going to live Ephyra’s life, she would do so on her own terms. She would destroy those who had caused Ephyra pain, claim the inheritance that was rightfully hers, and find out who was behind her own death. Because if there was one thing Eira knew how to do well, it was to survive—and make her enemies pay. However, being a high-schooler with nothing to her name wasn’t enough. As Ephyra, she’s powerless, but as an assassin, she’s lethal. Still, even that wasn't enough until she became the contracted wife of Lyle Aelion—a powerful, enigmatic figure in the business world with a secret illness. And it turns out, the only thing that can relieve him is her scent.
