In an Empire ruled by kings barely out of boyhood yet already steeped in blood and power, Royal Imperium Prestigia High is where monsters are crowned—and innocents are devoured. Five thrones rule the elite academy: Dante, the werewolf alpha; Kaelric, humanity’s apex predator; Vesper, the vampire overlord; Xeari, the werecat king; and Ryuzaki, the celestial kitsune. To their subjects, they’re gods. For most girls, Prestigia is the pinnacle of existence—a chance to earn the favor of the five kings. They worship them, starve for their attention, and some die for it. But Blazar Staray is different. Sold into slavery and raised as an assassin, she infiltrates Prestigia as Orion Spade, a noble boy from a ruined house. A seer warned her: her scent is a siren’s call to beast-blooded males, awakening their primal hunger, to hunt to claim. To them she smells like the perfect mate. Her disguise is her shield—and her greatest gamble. Her mission? Kill a king—or die in the worst way possible. Yet she draws their lethal attention: - Dante craves her submission. - Kaelric hungers for her defiance. - Vesper is addicted to her blood. - Xeari stalks her like prey. - Ryuzaki wants to uncover her hideous nature. They should have ignored her. Now, they circle her like predators. The hunter becomes the hunted. To survive, Blazar must outwit kings born to rule ruthlessly, all while hiding a deadly secret that could destroy her. Blazar Staray won’t play their games. And she certainly doesn’t kneel.

Varnorr, a colossal multidimensional tree, has made contact with multiple worlds, marking the beginning of a new era—an age of exploration, of resources and opportunities... but also an age of chaos, where human nature will be exposed in its rawest form.

Can he break free from that fate? Can he uncover what he's always been searching for—the true center of his greed, that hollow space within him he’s never been able to understand? That hidden desire consuming him... and one that may destroy him before it ever reveals the truth. ***** #Harem #R18 #Angel #Demons #MILF #Oyakodon #Incest #Gilf #Giants #Beastwomen #Dwarves #Elves #Dragonesses #Vampire #Priestess#Princesses#goddesses#NTR#Group #Yandere#Truck-kun❤️

Known to the world as Phong Hoa, she led the Moonlit Commerce Guild and commanded troops on bloodied battlefields. A prodigy cloaked in snow and steel, she carved her name into war and trade alike.

In the grand, moonlit gardens of an English estate, two souls from different worlds find themselves drawn together by fate. Senja, a young man from Nusantara, has come to England to seek knowledge and a future beyond the boundaries of his homeland. Elizabet, the poised yet weary daughter of the Queen, carries the weight of royal expectations and the unspoken yearning for a life of freedom.

In a society bound by tradition and class, their love may be the one thing that can defy it all—if they dare to fight for it.

Amidst the elegance of Georgian England, Senja and Elizabet will have to decide whether their love is worth the cost of everything they hold dear.

Taeyang loved Hana with a quiet, unwavering devotion—never demanding, only hoping. Hana, caught between sorrow and strength, walked beside him with kindness, unaware of the depth behind his gentle eyes. And Jiwoon, ever watchful, ever silent, carried a love he never dared to speak—until the silence around them began to crack. As echoes of the past resurface, secrets long buried begin to pull them into a haunting puzzle that binds them tighter than before. Hana, now forced to confront truths both painful and profound, leans on Jiwoon—the one whose presence feels like calm in chaos. What begins as a search for answers slowly becomes something more: a journey through grief, loyalty, and the love that lingers in what’s left unsaid.

FOR YOU I DANCED IN THE TORNADO by spec_trum Merina wanted nothing more than to protect the only family she had left. But one cold night changes everything—she’s kidnapped, dragged into a world of secrets, and forced to meet a boy who doesn’t speak, yet says everything through silence. He is the forgotten heir—abused, hidden, and quiet in a way that aches. She is the girl fate threw into his storm. As danger closes in, they begin to find each other in the dark… without words, without promises—but with something deeper. > He had no voice left to give her, so he gave her everything else. For her, he danced in the tornado.

After the flames, there were embers. And from those embers, she chose something the crown never offered—peace. The rebellion has ended, but the kingdom is far from healed. Elira, once heir to a cursed throne, must now choose how to rebuild a world scarred by centuries of magic and betrayal. Beside her stands the man she was fated to destroy—but whom she instead chose to love. As ancient magic begins to slumber again, and the people watch with wary hope, Elira faces her greatest challenge yet: to rule without ruling, to lead without blood, and to protect a peace no crown ever taught her to keep. “Crown of Embers” is a soft-burning epilogue to “Crown of Ashes”—a tale of healing, hard love, and what happens after you survive the prophecy meant to end you.
