… “One fifty.” I heard someone shout. “One sixty.” Another said immediately. “Two hundred.” “Five hundred thousand dollars.” “Five hundred thousand dollars, going once, going twice, sold.” Cesar announced and everybody clapped. “What was that?” Drego barked. “What?” I blinked, my smile slowly dissipating. “Why did you agree to stand up there? And looking like this for that matter.” I frowned. “Like what?” “Did you enjoy the fact that men were bidding on you like some prost—” My palms flew and landed on Drego’s face before I could understand what I was doing. “You don’t get to judge how I decide to look. Who the hell do you think you are to judge me? I did what I did for charity. You’re my boss, don’t cross any lines.” I turned around to leave. “Wait. Nichole I’m sorry.” He said more calmly. I looked at him again. “Because I told you that I was in love with you doesn’t make it okay for you to get involved in my personal life and decisions.” “It’s not like—” “Don’t worry. The day I quit was my first day getting over you. You don’t have to worry about that crazy talk. I’m over you. And I’ll leave your company the second you find my replacement and you won’t have to see me anymore.” “Nichole please listen—” “Drego, you’re up.” Reid came outside. His expression changed. It was no surprise. The tension between Drego and I was palpable. “Is everything okay?” Reid asked. “Yeah.” I replied. “We are done here.”

When time begins slipping through Ayesha's fingers, Arjun finds himself caught between holding on or letting go. Will their hearts find each other in the silence or will destiny write their last message before they ever meet?

Prologue: The House That Remembers The train never should have stopped. Not here. Not for me. Yet, the moment the wheels screech against the tracks, I know—this place has been waiting. For how long, I cannot say. Time does not move naturally in the mist. I step onto the platform, and the cold clings to my skin like something alive, something with fingers and breath and memory. The sign above me is broken, its letters long faded, but the graffiti scrawled beneath it is fresh. One word, written in frantic, uneven strokes: ECHOES. A gust of wind stirs the fog, and for a split second, I see them—figures in the mist. Watching. Listening. Remembering. I clutch the slip of paper in my hand, the only clue I have. Find the House That Remembers. I don’t remember writing it. But I know the house is already waiting for me. And it does not forget.

I had to change this book to a novel because I started publishing it as a fanfic, but it is not fanfic, it is my original work, so I'm keeping both to keep my readers updated. The cover is my work too. This story is not as gruesome or violent as regular Chinese stuff here, because I'm European, so it is kind of easy to read but it still has hot content, twists and an interesting storyline. The setting ranges from ancient, medieval to almost modern. This is uncontracted book , so enjoy the free reading:-) #beastman, #hotblooded, #playfull, #gamesofwits, #tiger, #snake, #eagle,#scorpion, # dragon, #adventure, #romance,#sexy

The Observer I didn't mean to notice her. But now that I have, I can't look away. I'm drawn to her strength, her sorrow, the way she hopes. The way she looks at him, sleeping, unaware... My cravings aren’t for flesh alone. It’s her essence I hunger for, her spirit. I don’t wish to hurt her—only to taste what makes her whole. I'll keep watching, sharing her silence, feeling her pain. Until I can make her see me. And once she does, I'll help her heal. Not even when she tells me to go. The Observed I can feel his gaze, even from a distance. I should be uncomfortable, but I'm not. There's a comfort in his presence, a solace in his silent support. He doesn't judge my tears, my fears, my desperate pleas. He just watches, understands, and somehow, shares my burden. I can't look away, not when I need him to stay. Not when I want him to come closer. Even as I sit here, holding onto a love that's slipping away, I find myself drawn to the observer.

Title: Lilith: The First Woman's Rebellion Synopsis: Born from the same earth as Adam, Lilith was meant to be his equal but Eden had no place for a woman who refused to kneel. When her desire for freedom clashes with divine law, Lilith defies God Himself, uttering the forbidden name that grants her escape but curses her for eternity. Exiled from paradise and stripped of her rightful place, she vanishes into the unknown where darkness and power await. In the shadows beyond Eden, Lilith transforms into a queen of the forsaken, gathering fallen angels, restless spirits, and those cast aside by the celestial order. But even as she builds her own kingdom, the wound of betrayal festers. When Eve is created to replace her, Lilith vows to become the eternal thorn in humanity’s side yet beneath her vengeance burns a deeper question: What if freedom is worth any cost? As the centuries pass, Lilith’s legend grows witch, seductress, demon queen but the truth is far more complex. From ancient Mesopotamia to the heart of the modern world, she navigates a landscape of divine plots, mortal ambition, and the constant threat of celestial retribution. When an ancient prophecy reveals she may hold the key to toppling the celestial hierarchy, Lilith must decide: Will she reclaim her place in paradise, or will she destroy the very gods who cast her out? Blending mythology, mystery, and rebellion, Lilith: The First Woman’s Rebellion is a sweeping tale of power, identity, and the eternal fight for freedom. In a world where submission is law, one woman’s defiance could change the fate of creation itself. (These are list of books that stated LILLITH as the first woman on earth) The Book of Enoch: Specifically, in the Book of Enoch, chapter 69, verses 4-5, Lilith is described as the first woman created by God, equal to Adam in status and power. However, she refused to submit to Adam, and God banished her from the Garden of Eden. The Babylonian Talmud: In the Talmud, Lilith is described as a demon or evil spirit who is said to have been created from the same earth as Adam. The Quran: In some Islamic traditions, Lilith is mentioned as a female jinn (spirit) who refused to bow to Adam. The Apocryphal Book of Adam and Eve: This ancient text tells the story of Lilith's creation and her rebellion against Adam. The Gnostic Gospels: Some Gnostic texts, such as the Gospel of Philip, mention Lilith as a divine being or a symbol of feminine power. It's worth noting that the story of Lilith has evolved over time, and different interpretations and mythologies have emerged. However, the Book of Enoch provides one of the most well-known and influential accounts of Lilith's origin.
