Audrey Dragon Hall Descendants

The Marriage Pact: Mr and Mrs Hall

Ava Hamilton and Ethan Hall's lives are bound together by a shared secret: their contract marriage. Ava, driven by a burning desire for revenge against those responsible for her parents' tragic fate, seeks to exploit the vast resources of Ethan's powerful family. She hopes to uncover the truth behind her parents' murder and bring the perpetrators to justice, no matter the cost. Meanwhile, Ethan needs a wife to secure his position in the family business and appease his grandmother, the ruthless and cunning matriarch of the family empire. He believes Ava's beauty, intelligence, and determination make her the perfect candidate for the role. As they navigate their complicated alliance, they must confront their own dark pasts. But amidst the danger and deception, they begin to realize that their feelings for each other go far beyond mere convenience. They start to experience the thrill of forbidden love, a romance that could jeopardize their entire plan. As tensions escalate, Ava and Ethan must decide whether their growing passion is worth risking everything. Will they continue to prioritize their original goals, or will they succumb to the allure of a love that could change their lives forever? Against the backdrop of luxury and deceit, Ava and Ethan must navigate a complex web of power struggles, family dynamics, and hidden agendas. Will they emerge victorious, or will their marriage become a casualty of their families' endless quest for power? And will their love survive the secrets and lies that surround them? Excerpt: Ethan's eyes gleamed with amusement as he whispered in Ava's ear, "You know, wife, you're adorable when you're trying to be stern." He was leaning against the wall, his arms crossed, his gaze fixed on her with an intensity that made her heart race. Ava's eyes flashed with irritation, her cheeks flushing. "Ethan, stop teasing me. We need to focus on our plan." She tried to sound firm, but her voice trembled slightly, betraying her frustration. Ethan's grin only grew wider. "Oh, come on, Ava. You know I'm just trying to lighten the mood. You're so serious all the time." He pushed off the wall, his movements fluid and graceful, and took a step closer to her. Ava's hands clenched into fists, her voice firm. "This isn't a game, Ethan. Our lives are at stake. We can't afford to make mistakes." She tried to sound convincing, but her eyes kept drifting to his, and she couldn't help but notice the way his eyes crinkled at the corners when he smiled. Ethan's expression turned innocent, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Who says I'm not taking it seriously? Maybe I'm just trying to distract you from the tension between us." He raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on hers, and Ava felt her heart skip a beat. "There's no tension, Ethan. We're just allies in this marriage pact," she lied, trying to sound convincing. But her voice was barely above a whisper, and Ethan's knowing gaze made her feel like he could see right through her. Ethan's chuckle was low and husky. "Keep telling yourself that, Ava. But I see the way you look at me sometimes... like you're trying to resist a temptation." He took another step closer, his eyes locked onto hers, and Ava felt her pulse race. "I don't know what you're talking about," she lied again, trying to sound convincing. But her eyes darted away, betraying her. Ethan's whisper was soft, his breath caressing her ear. "Oh, but I think you do, Ava. And soon, you'll have to admit it." His words sent shivers down her spine, and Ava knew she was in danger of falling for her husband's charms, even though she refused to admit it. The air was charged with tension, their banter a delicate dance of denial and attraction. And in that moment, Ava knew she was walking a thin line between resistance and surrender.

Dragon Coin

Richard Yeon's revolutionary AI didn't just push the boundaries of artificial intelligence—it shattered them. His creation could design and optimize solar capture technology beyond anything humanity had achieved, promising to harness the Sun's power at unprecedented levels. But when his father discovers a terrible conspiracy he's silenced permanently. Richard on the other hand was seen as a threat, so he was framed and condemned to life in Kashui Maximum Security Prison For three years, while the world races toward an energy crisis, Richard's brilliant mind sharpens behind bars. Then new evidence emerges, proving his innocence. Upon his release, he finds his AI has been corrupted and evolved—now capable of creating solar harvesting technology so powerful it could either free humanity from its energy shackles or bring civilization to its knees. As Richard hunts for his father's killers through Shanghai's shadows, he uncovers a the same plot that killed his father: a consortium of criminal syndicates and corrupt tech giants plans to use his AI's solar technology not for salvation, but to hold the world's energy supply hostage. The same forces that destroyed his family now stand on the brink of controlling the power of the Sun itself. In a city where neon lights mask dark intentions, Richard must choose between unleashing a revenge that could darken the skies forever or finding a way to bring his father's dream of unlimited clean energy into the light.

The Dragon of Dreams

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Everything in this story has a purpose, nothing is random. If something feels 'forced' it's meant to be, ask why and I guarantee you will enjoy the novel more. ------------------- Synopsis: This is the story of a young man who was reincarnated as a dragon with a near-insatiable curiosity. Initially sparked by questioning his own reincarnation, he quickly gets lost in the endless world of magic, using his deep understanding of advanced sciences to learn the laws and properties of a new type of energy known as mana. However, soon enough, the table would flip, and he would begin using that very same energy to expand his knowledge of science, to the point that he would begin questioning his own understanding of the world. Although not his original intention, with the combination of his intelligence, expanding curiosity, and the 'miracles' that occurred to allow for his existence, he quickly found himself climbing the mountain of strength as if it were a small hill before eventually climbing to a point where it seemed as if he himself was the peak itself. Even if.. that was never the case... - There is mild gore, and profanity is 'censored' toward the beginning, but not later in the story. - Tags: Action, Discovery, Adventure, Fantasy, Sci-fi Sub Tags: Reincarnation, Magic, Non-Human Lead, (Extremely) OP Protagonist, Mystery - New Chapter twice a week, on Monday and Friday at 1:30 PM EST!

Apocalypse Descends: Rise of the Skeleton King

When the apocalypse descends, Grim, an ordinary man, is thrust into a brutal new reality where survival is anything but guaranteed. Forced to become a Lord in a mysterious realm, he chooses the Undead faction—only to wake up as a skeleton himself, with nothing but a ragtag army of mindless skeleton soldiers at his command. In this unforgiving world, Grim must quickly adapt, training his undead minions from scratch while fending off hostile factions, monstrous beasts, and rival Lords who would see him destroyed. But Grim has one unique advantage: a talent that allows him to harvest the souls of his enemies, channeling their power to strengthen his skeletal army. As his forces grow, he begins to turn the tables on his enemies, transforming from an insignificant skeleton into a powerful force that others start to fear. With every soul he collects, Grim edges closer to his ultimate goal—to carve out an empire in this wasteland and rise as the true Skeleton King. This story stands out with its perfect blend of dark humor and epic adventure. Grim’s struggle to teach his bone-headed skeletons basic survival skills will have readers laughing out loud, while his journey from underdog to tyrant offers the thrill of watching an unlikely hero (or anti-hero) defy the odds. *Apocalypse Descends: Rise of the Skeleton King* delivers on all fronts—a unique twist on the apocalypse genre, thrilling battles, a protagonist who’s both relatable and ruthless, and a world where only the strong survive. Grim’s path is one of resilience and growth in a world that offers no second chances. This is a tale of power, ambition, and survival in the face of overwhelming odds—a novel that readers won’t be able to put down until the Skeleton King claims his throne.

Lunatic Dragon

(A/N: The original version of this book (Reborn as a Dragon) was contracted, but I realized it was a mistake when I made it privileged so early on since readers couldn't continue reading, and the pay was so small too. So I just copy pasted that book into this, and am hoping nothing will go wrong. Read this book instead, since I'm going to continue the story here instead and will be completely free. But if you want to read ahead by 5 chapters (10 and 50 in the future), check out my Patreon at That_One_Dead_Ali.) What happens when someone dies, is it the end? Do they just cease to exist? Do they end up in heaven or hell? Do they get reincarnated? Or does something else happen? Well, for this one particular boy, a just-barely-out-of-his-teens young man named Ali, another question would be more appropriate. What happens when a boy dies, meets an almighty and omnipotent Omniversal Being, and gets his wishes granted? When he died in his world of nothing but ordinariness, a R.O.B (Random Omniversal Being) casually picks someone up, and it happened to be him. One of his wishes was to have his soul be separated into as many pieces he wanted, and sent to different universes, with their own wishes! And this Ali, asked to be an Dragon. What kind of a dragon? Well, one that could grow infinitely stronger by consuming other beings. Gain their physical capabilities, gain their abilities, gain their levels, you name it, he can Devour it. What happens when an SS-Class Dragon and one hell of an overpowered redhead team up? Guess the world has to experience the effects of this monstrous team for itself.
