God, you’re no different from the Romanovs!” He assessed me coolly with those dark eyes and then said with a note of finality, “He’s my son, Niamh, and you’ll have to become my wife.” My father was killed. My uncle sold me to the Russian mafia syndicate. And now, the man I hid my son from for five years—Massimo Valentino—is forcing me to be his wife. My survival and the safety of Matteo depend on this hated forced marriage. But the situation is worse than I thought: I am the key to a hidden vault that the Texas underworld is willing to kill for. With the war raging outside and a major betrayal brewing inside the Italian mafia syndicate, my safety depends entirely on Massimo. I have to forgive and trust the man who ruined me, or lose everything. This is the first installment in The Valentino Princes Series.

"Forgive me, my soul," he said, knowing it was probably the last time he would see the love of his life. *** Simply put, King Agust was the devil in plain clothes. A raging lycan with an unwavering desire to wipe out werewolves, he was the ultimate danger to a race whose only mistake, was bearing the same blood as that of his father. Broken and damaged by his father, a werewolf alpha, Agust hated wolves with all he had and didn't have. To him, they were pathetic beings that needed to be snuffed out, and like a mad king, he made their lives so difficult the only option the wolves had left, was to hide. So when he met Park, one of the strongest werewolf alphas, who didn't take shit from no one, hated him, and who was determined to protect the werewolf race, Agust knew he found his match. What he didn't expect, was for the alpha who hated him so much, to be his mate, and reject him on the same day they met. As if that wasn't bad enough, when his lycans attacked Park's pack, Agust sentenced them to mass murder, an action that triggered a revolution. But strangely, the only thing Agust cared for, was the one man who made him weak in the knees. Alpha Park. Would Agust win both wars?

Mature Content 18+ Full of yuri, steamy intimacy, and bold eroticism, this story explores desire, temptation, and unbridled passion between women. Contains explicit sexual content, nudity, and adult themes. When Aiko Fujimura touches an ancient medallion, everything changes. In an instant, she awakens in another world—inside the body of Vivienne, a beautiful elven aristocrat surrounded by halls lit by golden chandeliers, silent gardens, and a life of luxury and elegance… yet also one filled with rules, expectations, and secrets. At her side is Odette, her companion—always serene, always close—and whose simple touch can turn even the quietest moments into something intense and full of emotion. But the world of Châtelune is far greater than Vivienne’s circle alone. Through the city’s elegant streets, hidden gardens, and candlelit salons, many other women cross her path—each with their own story, their own desires, and their own relationships. Some already love one another, while others slowly discover those feelings over time. There are secret bonds, forbidden romances, friendships that grow into something deeper, and encounters filled with tension and longing. Not all of these stories revolve around Vivienne—many unfold between other women, creating a web of passions, secrets, and intimacies that intertwine throughout the world.

“No one looks at you. No one touches you. You’re a Whitehall now. And you’re mine.” Roman’s voice was a low, dangerous growl against my neck. I tilted my chin, meeting the predator in his eyes with my own cold fire. “I belong to no one, Roman. Certainly not a beast in a jersey. If you want to claim me, you’ll have to do better than your father’s signature on a contract.” I spun my wheelchair to leave. He was faster. His hand locked around my waist, dragging me back as his palm slammed against the wall beside my head. “Don’t you fucking dare me, Estelle.” — Estelle Rutledge was the Ice Queen of the Rutledge sports dynasty: national treasure, global brand, and the financial backbone of her family’s empire. Until one catastrophic crack on the ice shattered her career… and left her in a wheelchair. In the elite world of the one percent, a broken asset becomes a liability. With the Rutledge legacy collapsing under a mountain of debt, Estelle’s own mother did the unthinkable. She sold her daughter to the highest bidder, trading Estelle’s freedom for a check from Magnus Whitehall, the ruthless billionaire owner of a professional hockey empire. But Magnus didn’t buy Estelle for himself. He bought her to be his son’s leash. Roman Whitehall is the NHL’s most dangerous beast. A volatile heir with a scandal-soaked reputation and a temper that threatens the family’s billions. To the league’s board, he’s a loose cannon. To his father, he’s a problem that needs a wife to clean up his image. The command was simple: “Be the one thing he can’t avoid… or lose your legs.” Now Estelle is legally bound to a man who sees their marriage as a cage, and her as the bars holding him in. Roman believes she’s a fragile burden. Estelle thinks he’s a monster fueled by rage and secrets. But inside the Whitehall mansion, built on power, money, and lies, Estelle discovers a terrifying truth: she is not the first “Ice Queen” Magnus Whitehall has broken. Trapped in dynasty politics and a contract signed in blood, Estelle faces an impossible choice. Will she let the Whitehalls destroy what’s left of her… or join forces with the beast she hates most and burn their empire to the ground? Because even though she hates it, Roman Whitehall may be the only man who can help her stand again. Even if he has to break her first.

His eyes roamed her face, then dropped lower and lingered just a second too long. “Careful, princess. Keep taunting me like that and I’ll start thinking you like our nightly sparring.” “And if I did?” Her voice was soft now. Almost playful. “Would you stop pretending that you don't like it when I challenge you?” He rose from his seat slowly until he stood toe to toe with her. “Tell me something, Circe.” She tilted her chin up. “What?” “If I kissed you right now… Would you slap me, stab me, or kiss me back?” Her breath hitched. “That depends.” “On?” “How good the kiss is.” A pause. Something hummed between them, something neither of them dared name. Ragnar’s gaze dropped to her mouth. “Do you want me to find out?” She smiled, slow and wicked. “Make it worth the risk.” **** She was forced to marry the man who led the attack on her people. After her father is murdered, Circe is forced to leave her home and become a prisoner of the enemy. When she is taken to the enemy territory, she expects to be tortured physically in every way imaginable.

Obsession is no longer one-sided pain, possession, and desire blur the line between salvation and ruin. Two hearts shattered, two souls desperate, two bodies craving and cursing each other. Hatred turns intimate. Violence turns protective. Control turns possessive. To understand why every glance between them is now laced with suspicion and pain… you need to witness the betrayal that was never truly theirs.

For five years, the world believed the Ghost was dead. Following the eradication of Mother Miranda and the destruction of The Connections, Alen Wesker—the natural-born son of Albert and Alex Wesker, and the ultimate biological anomaly—retreated into the shadows. Living in secret at the frozen Shaolin sanctuary of Mount Song, China, Alen has traded his bloody crusade for the quiet life of a father and husband. Held together by a surgically implanted CIED pacemaker to regulate his scarred heart, and wielding a lethal, state-of-the-art black-and-gold titanium prosthetic arm, Alen thought his war against the ghosts of Umbrella was finally over. He was wrong. When his AI, Trinity, intercepts highly classified FBI and CIA data packets, the fragile peace of the Lotus Temple is shattered. A terrifying new bio-hazard is emerging in the American Midwest, distressingly close to the ashes of Raccoon City. Victims are being found with rapid, post-mortem necrosis, bleeding yellow irises, and symptoms that defy all known T-Virus or Mold pathology. The government is burying the outbreaks under a black-ops initiative known only as Project Elpis (Hope). But the true catalyst for Alen’s return is the identity of the first victim: Alyssa Ashcroft, a veteran investigative journalist and legendary survivor of the 1998 Raccoon City incident. Alyssa was one of the few to synthesize and inject the original "Daylight" vaccine—a permanent cure to the T-Virus that permanently altered her genetic code. Now, her murder points to a horrifying reality: the architects of Project Elpis are harvesting the Raccoon City survivors. And their next target is Alyssa’s daughter, Grace Ashcroft, an active FBI technical analyst who is being deliberately kept in the dark by corrupt Bureau superiors. Grace’s blood holds the inherited Daylight antibodies—the genetic key required to stabilize the Elpis pathogen and unleash a perfect, symbiotic nightmare upon the globe. With Chris Redfield and the Hound Wolf Squad preparing to assault the region loud and blind, Alen knows a military hammer will only cause the conspirators to burn the evidence. The situation requires a scalpel. Defying the strict medical warnings of his wife, Dr. Rebecca Chambers, Alen steps back into his black tactical gear. Armed with his silenced weaponry, his mind-hacking "Cognitive Dominion," and his devastating cybernetic arm, the Ghost deploys to the epicenter of the conspiracy: the abandoned Wrenwood Hotel. Operating purely in the shadows, Alen must outmaneuver the corrupt FBI task force, trace the legacy of the Daylight vaccine, and uncover the mastermind behind Project Elpis. He is not there to arrest anyone. He is there to protect Grace Ashcroft, dismantle the conspiracy from the inside out, and execute the final architects of Umbrella's sins before the dawn. The Ghost is back. And God help anyone hiding in the dark.

This is my first fanfic, so the beginning may not be perfect, but I can guarantee that the quality of the chapters improves as I keep writing. So give it a chance and read a few chapters. /-/ He was not a man of technology, but of steel and sweat. Living in the countryside, he was a blade craftsman who treated Damascus steel as art. Nearly fifty years old, his stubbornness was as great as his skill; he refused to modernize his workshop, preferring ancient methods. But fate, ironic as ever, did not come by the fire of the forge or by age, but by cold venom. While gathering firewood, a venomous snake bit him, bringing his journey to an end. He died suffocating on the way to the hospital. Death was not the end, but the prelude to a new beginning. /-/ The universe of A Song of Ice and Fire and its characters belong exclusively to George R.R. Martin

Three lifetimes, two of which were defined by relentless struggle. As death approached, Akishin welcomed it with a smile.

A story of protection, companionship, and a love fought for over a lifetime—and for eternity.

Waking up as a teenager in New York City in 2008 is one thing. Realizing it's the Marvel universe on the eve of the "Age of Heroes" is something else entirely. For me, John Smith, an orphan from Hell's Kitchen, the future looks bleak. And school bullies are the least of my upcoming problems. But fate (or something with a very twisted sense of humor) has other plans. I received a mysterious "Gacha System"—a source of unpredictable power with a ridiculously absurd name. It grants me not only strange skills and a whole lot of internal conflict, but also the ability to pull in

“Set a small goal first… defeat Kakashi.” Shinichi Higashino transmigrates into the world of Naruto but unlike others, he has no powerful clan, no rare bloodline, no destined prophecy backing him. What he does have… is something far more terrifying. He possesses a unique ability: The world’s perception of him becomes reality. If people believe he is intelligent — his mind sharpens beyond limits. If they call him a genius — he masters any technique at terrifying speed. If legends describe him as indestructible — his body truly becomes unbreakable. And when the entire ninja world believes he can create miracles… he transcends all limits. In a world ruled by reputation, myths, and fear, Shinichi decides to weaponize perception itself. From manipulating rumors in Konoha, to crafting multiple identities that shake the Five Great Nations, he begins the most calculated and deliberate rise to power in ninja history.

I am not a god. I am the Cycle of Destruction and Rebirth itself. In the previous eon, I was betrayed. The women I trusted—my so-called soulmates—stabbed me in the back, forcing my destructive laws to go berserk and wipe out an entire civilization. Now, I’ve awakened in a modern world where Aetheric energy is just returning. I am weak, my memories are fractured, and the apocalyptic toxin inside me is threatening to tear this new era apart. My only anchor? The Omega Exchange, an ancient entity bound to my soul, hiding in the shadows of the world's most hypocritical faction: The Divine Temple. To survive and reclaim my cosmic throne, I must balance two paths: Flesh to suppress the Destruction. Soul to ignite the Rebirth. In my eyes, the women of this world are no longer equals. They are divided into a strict, unforgiving hierarchy: 1. Fuel (The Contaminated): Fake saints and worthless parasites. Good for nothing but raw energy to be ruthlessly burned and consumed by the Exchange. 2. Vessels (The Release): Beautiful, but lacking true essence. Their only purpose is to absorb my violent urges and satisfy my primal lust. No attachments. No mercy. 3. Spirit-Rhyme (The Resonant): Rare, brilliant souls that resonate with the abyss. They are my eyes in the shadows, my branded priestesses. I conquer their minds and shatter their sanity long before I ever claim their flesh. 4. Apex-Tier (The True Origins): The flawless, singular few. Bearers of the universe's ultimate laws. Only they are worthy of absolute possession, my protection, and ruling the ashes of the next era by my side. This time, I will not be deceived by fake affection or holy masks. I will solve the mysteries of this recovering world, unmask the traitors hiding in the Divine Temple, and violently take back what is mine. Those who submit will reign. Those who deceive me will be reduced to dust. ======= Thank you to all our readers for your incredible support!

In one of many timelines android 18 had finally killed everyone who could fight her. having lost her brother in the process she is finally stopped by Bulma who decides to sent her away to a different dimension. Now 18 has woken up in the world of heroes. There she will encounter those that want to control her, destroy her or imprison her. 18 is determined to fight back and prove that she is the only one that decides her destiny. (this is not a translation, also the 18 in the story is not exactly the same, although she is the character from DBZ and not someone with her powers, there is not going to be romance unless it fits the story and she will be powerful but I want to put respect in both worlds so she is not going to stomp everyone easily.)

After an ordinary day ends in the most ridiculous way possible—being hit by the infamous Truck-kun—a young man expects darkness… or maybe heaven. Instead, he wakes up in a completely different world. Not just any world. The world of Marvel Universe. Superheroes exist. Gods walk among mortals. Aliens invade Earth every other year. Organizations like S.H.I.E.L.D. operate from the shadows, and figures such as Tony Stark and Thor are real. For someone who knows the stories… this world is terrifying. But his rebirth didn’t come empty-handed. In his mind awakens a mysterious ability: The Super Scavenger System The system grants him the power to enter ruined worlds across the multiverse—dead civilizations, destroyed futures, post-apocalyptic timelines, and fallen dimensions where life has already collapsed. Zombie-infested Earths. Nuclear wastelands. Alien war zones. Collapsed magic worlds. In these abandoned worlds, he can scavenge anything left behind: Lost technologies Ancient artifacts Weapons from fallen empires Alien machinery Magical relics Even experimental super-serums Anything he finds can be brought back to the Marvel world. What others see as garbage… becomes his treasure. A broken Iron Man prototype from a ruined future. A forgotten alien weapon from a dead galaxy. A vial of serum from a destroyed laboratory. While heroes fight to save their world, he quietly becomes the ultimate scavenger of lost worlds, gathering power from civilizations that already fell.

They threw him into the dark to feed a slumbering god. They didn't know the god was starving—and that the boy was hungrier. For ten thousand years, the Blood Lotus Sect has reigned supreme, built on a foundation of ruthless cultivation and a dark secret: they sacrifice their weakest newborns to the Abyssal Pit to appease an ancient horror. But when a nameless, hollow boy is tossed into the dark, he doesn't scream. He doesn't break. With a soul as empty as the void itself, he catches the eye of the dying god below. Instead of consuming him, the ancient entity makes him its vessel. Now, sharing his mind with a cynical, world-ending parasite, the boy climbs out of the abyss wearing the stolen skin and identity of a murdered Outer Court disciple named Dver. To the arrogant young masters and paranoid elders of the sect, Dver is just another piece of trash. A traumatized survivor clinging to the bottom of the hierarchy. They are dead wrong. He is an apex predator wearing a sheep’s skin, and his cultivation requires him to eat theirs. As Dver systematically infiltrates the sect, turning their deadly politics into his own personal hunting ground, he catches the eye of Lyra—the Sect’s flawless, untouchable Saintess. She believes she can purify the broken boy. She thinks she can save him. But Dver doesn't want salvation. He wants to slowly, deliciously corrupt her until she is just as monstrous as he is. A grand sacrifice is approaching. The elders are preparing to feast on the heavens. But they have no idea that the abyss is already walking among them, smiling, and waiting for the perfect moment to swallow them whole.

Kenzie Anderson was a genius theory professor on Earth, a man who preferred equations over people and a quiet life over recognition. His life ends abruptly when he dies saving a stray cat from an oncoming truck… only to discover that the cat was actually the god of another world. As a reward, he is reincarnated into the fantasy world of Avalon, the very setting of a web novel he once read. Unfortunately, it is not a peaceful world. It is a story of heroes, demons, wars, and catastrophic battles… and the plot is still unfinished. Reborn as a frail orphan named Yorio, he resolves to avoid danger at all costs. His goal is simple: live quietly, stay out of the main story, graduate from the prestigious Astraea Combat Academy, earn a stable job, and support the orphan siblings who believe in him. He has no interest in glory. No desire to become strong. No intention of meeting the protagonist, Cedric, the destined hero who will one day fight the Demon God. Yorio wants only one role: A background character who survives. But from the moment he enters the academy, everything goes wrong. His natural blank expression is mistaken for terrifying composure. His awkward silence is interpreted as cold confidence. His attempts to avoid fights look like deliberate restraint. His accidents appear as flawless techniques. When a training automaton is destroyed after he trips, rumors spread that he defeated it instantly. When the academy’s strongest third-year challenges him, a series of mishaps leaves the senior unconscious — convincing everyone that Yorio possesses overwhelming hidden power. Soon, whispers echo through the academy: • The orphan who survived an impossible disaster • The boy who defeated Rank #1 without effort • The emotionless prodigy • The monster hiding his true strength In reality, Yorio is weak. Painfully weak. Until the day he awakens a mysterious ability: The Pain Ascension System The more injured he becomes, the stronger he grows. Broken bones grant immense strength. Severe wounds unleash terrifying power. Near death transforms him into something monstrous. But the pain is real. The risk of death is constant. And once he heals, the power fades. To survive the brutal academy — and the catastrophic future he knows is coming — Yorio must endure suffering he never wanted, all while being feared as a monster he never meant to become. Meanwhile, the true protagonist, powerful nobles, secret organizations, and even inhuman forces begin to take interest in the mysterious boy who insists he is weak… yet leaves destruction in his wake. In a world that mistakes fear for strength and silence for menace, Yorio walks a dangerous path between obscurity and legend. Because sometimes, the most terrifying monster… …is simply the one who refuses to be the hero.

On that day, my novel was finally accepted by the Web Novel platform. But what I didn't foresee was that my celebration would remain unfinished. ​Yes, a truck. as if ripped straight from an anime scene. appeared, and I was transported to another world. Yet, the greatest surprise was not the magic, but the lack of it. I met no enchanting goddess to grant me power, nor did I inherit any special abilities. ​It seems my bad luck merely followed me into this new realm, leaving me stranded with nothing but a small axe. a tool so fragile it breaks the moment it cuts a single tree.
