Chapter 1
Omniscient Narrative
The sun peaked through the thin sheets curtains beautifying the room, glaring at the couple who laid resting after yesterday's activity.
Kai just like every day woke up completely annoyed and irritated, he wasn't too found of the curtains, they were beautiful? Yes, but they didn't do much when it came to protecting their eyes and faces from the glaring sun every morning.
He turned to side with annoyance and saw the clock read 7am in the morning and just like every morning-a routine he had formed ever since he got married to Vincent- he got up to get things ready for his son and his husband, who unlike him had places to be before or by 9am.
His son was studying in the university, he's in his last year to be along with his boyfriend, Joey.
And his husband, Vincent worked Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.
The short blond man walked to the kitchen and got everything he needed to get breakfast ready for the most important men in his life.
With a small yawn and a soft scratch on his slightly exposed stomach, Kai lazily walked to the fridge and took the eggs.
The small man then began cooking breakfast for his family.
"Another day, the same routine" he spoke before letting out a yawn again.
......
Meanwhile upstairs.....
Austin was in the shower, cleaning up since his boyfriend Joey was coming over to pick him up early.
The short boy was happy with his relationship with his boyfriend, Joey always found a way to brighten his day and he loved it and him.
Joey and Austin started going out in junior year of high school, Austin was the popular kid, he hang around equally rich and popular kids, he was also the head cheerleader and he was openly gay and proud,
while Joey was known as the loner, the quiet kid who came from a very strict family, who didn't believe being gay was normal, he always wore all black, no smile on his face, his brows would always hang lowly in anger and sometimes sadness.
His face was always bruised from fights he got into with the other kids who thought just because he was quiet he could get bullied.
When Austin first saw Joey he fell in love at first sight, the shorter male made it his priority to get the taller lonely kid to be his, it took a lot of convincing but Joey finally got with him, making the other cool kids get of his back, Austin was popular and held power, no one wanted his problems, especially with his father Vincent being one of the few people sponsoring the school.
People thought they wouldn't last since Joey was the complete opposite of Joey, shy, kept to himself and Austin was a free spirited being, but years later and they're still going on strong. They couldn't be more happier together.
The boy turned off the water and stepped out of the shower, he grabbed a towel and tied it around his waist and one around his neck, which he was using to clean off the dripping water from his hair.
His hair dripped water as he walked to his closet, the small man kissed his teeth in annoyance before he used the towel-around his neck- to wrap his coils, letting the towel soak the water.
Just when he was about to search for clothes to wear, he heard his phone ring, the usual ringtone disturbing the peace and quiet in his room. He took it, looked at the screen and with a huge smile on his face he picked up the call.
"Good morning my love" the person on the other line said making the smile on the smaller man grow wider.
"Good morning baby" Austin happily replied in a song like way, the smile on his face never leaving, if anything it was only growing wider.
"How was your night cupcake?" Joey asked Austin making him blush, they've been together for what? Six years and Austin still fan girls over his boyfriend. Hearing Joey call him the nickname he accidentally got the first time they met made his heart swell. He got the nickname when the boys from the football team was in the middle of their usual bullying, Austin had baked-more so his dad- some cupcakes for the fundraiser and while walking down the hall to his stall, a body had ran into him, it was Joey's. He had bumped into him making the cupcakes decorate his face and clothes. But due to the taller skinny boy running from the big bulky group of guys, he didn't have time to stay and fully apologize.
"I'll apologize later cupcake" the taller male yelled as he ran past Austin, a sly smirk on his face as he headed for another direction. From that day Joey kept calling him cupcake. And it didn't help that the second time they met, Joey had gifted him a box of cupcakes to apologize and the smaller male had a smile on his chubby cheeks, making the taller coo at him and nickname him cupcake. Which has stuck for a while now
"I slept well, how was your night baby?" Austin asked.
"It was great, you already know why" Joey replied him a knowing tease in his voice, making Austin blush more at the memory of why Joey had said that. "Are you ready?" He asked. Joey knew his schedule, he knew his boyfriend wasn't ready but like everyday he asked.
"No?" Austin sheepishly said making his boyfriend laugh at the other end. "but i was about to put on my clothes before you called" Austin informed him as he looked for what to wear, his phone is between his ear and shoulder.
"Then let's video chat instead" Joey playfully commented making Austin smile harder, his face could hurt from how much he was smiling.
"Anyways I'm 5 minutes away, save me breakfast" Joey added, he wasn't serious about it, he was driving, there's no way he's ready to crash when he could get there faster and see it in real life himself.
"Now you know damn well dad made enough for you" Austin jokingly rolled his eyes forgetting his boyfriend couldn't see him.
"Yeah yeah" Joey said. "And don't roll your eyes at me or else I'll give you a reason to" he added making the smaller man blush harder and his lower region happily accept the threat.
"You heard me?" Joey asked when his boyfriend didn't say anything.
"I'm sorry" the shorter man said lowly.
"Good, anyways I'll be coming with Aries" he added making Austin squeal, he liked Aries, Aries was Joey's cousin.
"I can't wait to see you" Joey happily spoke
"Sameeeee" Austin replied back
"Bye Tiny" Joey said before cutting the call and continued driving.

From Sacrificed Slave to the Dragon King's Obsession
His fangs glinted as he gripped my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. Dragon scales shimmered along his neck, breath scorching my skin.
"Your Majesty... I beg—" He shoved me onto the bed. Silk tore with a sharp rip, cold air rushing over my exposed body.
"Scared?" He smirked, palm sliding down my waist, fingers tracing slow, burning circles. "Yet you shiver... not from cold."
I lunged for the candlestick, but he caught my wrist, pinning it overhead. His knee forced my legs apart.
"When your father gave you to me," his lips brushed my ear, voice a dark rumble, "you were already mine."
On the eve of freedom after ten years of servitude, Lina Valeria stood one night away from reuniting with her betrothed. But Dragon King Augustus condemned her to the Abyss Mines on false charges—a trap forged from obsessive desire.
Augustus Ashenwing, Supreme Sovereign of Skyhold Citadel, is ruthless and feared by all races. His obsession stems from ancient grudges and dragonkind's most dangerous instinct: possessive desire. He demands her submission, binding her to his throne as his consort.
From prisoner to queen, Lina battles him through court intrigue and twisted passion—fighting for her mother, her freedom, her dignity.
Yet this cold-blooded tyrant reserves all tenderness for her alone. He indulges her temper, bends his pride, compromises without limit—anything to see her smile. Gradually, her heart wavers. But loving him means betraying Kain, who waited eleven years. Torn between duty and desire, she drowns in agonizing guilt.
Love and hatred intertwined—a forbidden dragon romance in a realm of oppression.
Aphrodite and the Cursed Mate Bond
She finds truth.
Aphrodite is not human at all. She is a rare white wolf, descended from an ancient Direwolf bloodline long believed extinct. The ritual meant to sever her ties awakens her wolf instead and with it comes the scent of five mates bound to her by fate.
The Alpha twins who once scorned her now cannot stay away. A human hunter walks beside her and proves that strength is not born of fangs or dominance. A cursed Wolf King holds the key to her past and her father’s imprisonment. And watching from the shadows is one who was never meant to interfere at all.
As gods fall, packs fracture, and war reshapes the world, Aphrodite must decide what destiny truly means. Is it submission to fate or the courage to choose her own path.
Love does not come in one form. Neither does power.
In a world ruled by gods and wolves, Aphrodite will become something neither ever expected.
Not a queen.
But the axis upon which the world turns.

My fiancé didn't just dump me—he proposed to her that same night. My so-called family handed me bus fare and a one-way ticket to the countryside.
Perfect. Let them think they won.
They don't know who I really am. The anonymous genius surgeon who saves lives when elite hospitals give up. The legendary artist whose paintings sell for millions at auction. The undefeated shadow queen of the underground fighting circuit. And the true heiress to a fortune that makes theirs look like pocket change.
Now my ex-fiancé begs on his knees. My fake sister's jealousy is eating her alive. And that cold, arrogant CEO who once threw our engagement contract in my face? He's hunting me down like a man possessed, desperate for one more chance.
They threw me away like trash to upgrade their lives.
Joke's on them.
I was always the upgrade.

“There are no limits between us,” he chuckled, the mirth sparkling in his gorgeous eyes. “And all of this stems from the night you gave me both pain and pleasure. I’m simply returning the favor.”
He took two steps forward, and I stepped back. “But…” The memory of what I had done filled me with fear, and I knew I had to get out of there. “I…”
“No, Firecat.” He placed an index finger on my lips. “This will take your mind off that son of a bitch.” His strong hands pulled me by the waist until I felt his hard manhood.

“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.
