Introduction
But when his blood awakens an ancient ring, everything changes.
The Supreme Overlord System binds to his soul, repairing his body and granting him heaven-defying power. In mere breaths, he reclaims lost cultivation. In a single night, he crushes his first enemy.
The sect believes he is trash.
They are about to witness the birth of a god.
And Ye Chen has a debt to collect.
Chapter 1
"Ye Chen! You trash! Are you dead or just pretending?"
The shout thundered through the damp, manure filled air of the Spirit Beast Stables. Ye Chen tightened his grip on the rusted shovel, his knuckles turning white, but he did not turn around. He continued to shovel the glowing, blue dung of the Horses into the cart.
"I am talking to you, waste."
A heavy boot slammed into Ye Chen’s lower back. The force was not enough to kill, but it was enough to send a malnourished youth explicitly sprawling into the filth he had just been cleaning.
Laughter erupted from the doorway.
Ye Chen grit his teeth, tasting the iron tang of blood in his mouth. He slowly pushed himself up, wiping the muck from his cheek. He looked at the intruder. It was Li Hu, a servant disciple who had barely reached the second stage of Body Tempering. Three years ago, a man like Li Hu would not have dared to breathe too loudly in Ye Chen’s presence.
"What do you want, Li Hu?" Ye Chen asked, his voice hoarse.
Li Hu sneered, stepping forward to loom over him. "What do I want? I want to see the former Number One Genius of the Azure Cloud Sect rolling in horse shit. And look! My wish has been granted."
"If you have no business here, get out. I have work to do."
"Work?" Li Hu laughed again, a harsh, grating sound. "You call this work? This is penance, Ye Chen. This is what happens when you offend Lady Su Rou. Do you really think anyone in the sect cares about a cripple whose Dantian has been shattered?"
At the mention of that name, Ye Chen’s eyes went cold. Su Rou. The woman he had loved. The woman he had given his resources to. The woman who had drugged him, shattered his cultivation base, and stole his innate Spiritual Bone to offer it to the sect master’s son.
"Don't mention her name with your filthy mouth," Ye Chen whispered.
Li Hu’s expression twisted into ugly rage. He grabbed Ye Chen by the collar, lifting him effortlessly. "You still think you are a Young Master? You are nothing! You are less than the beasts in these stalls. At least the beasts have spiritual energy!"
"Put me down."
"Or what?" Li Hu mocked, shaking him. "Will you hit me? With what cultivation? You can’t even summon a wisp of Qi. I could snap your neck with one hand."
"Then do it," Ye Chen stared directly into Li Hu’s eyes, his gaze burning with a terrifying intensity. "Do it, Li Hu. Kill me. But if you don't kill me today, I swear on my parents' graves that I will return this humiliation a thousand times over."
Li Hu flinched. For a second, he saw the shadow of the old Ye Chen, the prodigy who had once dominated the outer sect. The fear made him angry.
"You dare threaten me?"
Li Hu threw a punch, his fist glowing with a faint, yellow light of earth energy.
Crack.
The blow connected with Ye Chen’s ribs. The sound of bone fracturing was sickeningly loud in the quiet stable. Ye Chen was flung backward, crashing into the wooden partition of a stall. He slid down, coughing violently, red blood staining his gray servant robes.
"Pathetic," Li Hu spat on the ground. "To think I was actually scared for a moment. Listen well, trash. Lady Su Rou sent a message. She is ascending to the Inner Sect tomorrow. She wants you to know that she has thrown out your old engagement gifts. She said she doesn't want garbage cluttering her new pavilion."
Ye Chen clutched his chest, gasping for air. The pain was blinding, radiating from his shattered ribs. He tried to speak, but only a wheezing sound came out.
"Oh, and one more thing," Li Hu grinned, kicking the bucket of water over, soaking Ye Chen’s shivering body. "No food for you today. The Spirit Beasts need it more. Reflect on your station, trash."
Li Hu turned and strutted out, whistling a cheerful tune as he left Ye Chen broken and bleeding in the straw.
The silence returned to the stables, heavy and suffocating.
Ye Chen lay there, staring up at the rotting wooden beams of the ceiling. Three years. It had been three years of this. Every day was a struggle to survive. Every day was a reminder of what he had lost.
"Su Rou..." he rasped, tears of pure fury mixing with the blood on his face. "Zhao Feng..."
He tried to circulate his energy, to heal his ribs, but there was nothing. His Dantian was a broken void, leaking energy faster than he could gather it. He was a leaking bucket. A useless vessel.
"Is this... how it ends?"
His vision began to blur. The cold from the water was seeping into his bones. His consciousness started to drift into the darkness. He clenched his fist, digging his fingernails into his palm until they drew blood.
"I don't accept this!" he screamed internally, his soul roaring against the injustice. "I want power! I want to kill them! I want to burn the heavens and crush them all under my feet! Give me power! Anybody! Anything!"
His blood, warm and rich, dripped from his hand onto a small, dull black ring he wore on his finger. It was the only thing his parents had left him, a simple band of iron that no one had bothered to steal because it looked worthless.
As the blood soaked into the metal, a faint, almost imperceptible hum resonated through the stable.
The darkness in Ye Chen’s vision suddenly shattered.
A strange, mechanical sound, cold and devoid of emotion, rang out directly inside his skull. It was not a sound from the world, but a sound from the soul.
[Ding!]
Ye Chen’s eyes snapped open.

The Alpha's Stripper Mate
"What?" It was out of my mouth before I could stop it. I did not wait for him to answer me, I walked toward him.
"Dance on my lap."
My head screamed at me to turn around and run. But my whole body responded to his command.
"Yes, Alpha," I pulled my dress over my body, it dropped over my head and fell to the ground behind me. I was left in nothing but my matching bra and thong. My hands covered my chest on reflex.
"Let me see."
My hands dropped to my sides.
I lowered myself into his lap, facing him. His eyes peered into mine, and I could feel his hot breath fan my face. His dick responded to all my moves, hardening against my now-moist vagina. I swallowed hard, allowing my lips to part in a ragged breath. His hands trailed up to my waist.
"No touching."
At the tender age of eleven, JoJo Wyatt was forced to grow up far sooner than she should have. Born to a cruel father and a weak mother, she quickly realized she had to become the breadwinner for herself and her sister. Nothing else mattered to her, not even the hottest men. In fact, she despised them. After one horrific night, she swore never to have any contact with the male species again. That was, until she started working for him as his stripper.
Meanwhile, Alpha Lake Rush, thirty, was the most feared Alpha in the country. Burdened by his own share of life's struggles, he had learned only to be cruel and reckless, rejecting not one but two mates. But what happens when he discovers yet another mate, and she turns out to be his stripper?
A pack of their own
The mafia princess return
HER ALPHA, HER SAVIOUR
Kane Hellboud, charm and wealth personified, wanted only me in exchange for her treatment. No cameras, isolation, or noose-like rules were part of the deal. Behind his smile? Cold, violent possessiveness that destroyed our fake marriage.
Most of all, I didn’t know the supernatural walked among us, hiding in the cracks of ordinary life. Not until Abel Stone stepped into mine—dark-eyed, sharp-tongued, and oozing dangerous promises. He’s my new boss. He shouldn’t make my skin tingle or my pulse race. I shouldn’t feel this primal pull, this illogical recognition that tugs at something deep in my bones.
Around him, lights burst, electronics fry, and something ancient in me awakens.
Kane feels it. His grip tightens, punishments turn brutal, and he hides the truth of what I am.
Trapped between two powerful men, I’m no prey, no pawn—no helpless victim.
Prisons burn. Monsters bleed. As for me? I'm the storm in skin—deadly beyond suspicion.

The Shattered Moon King
Lena is a survivor. For years, she has weathered the harsh, post-apocalyptic landscape by following one rule: trust no one. But when she finds an amnesiac man near death in the wilderness—a man with kind eyes and a strength that is anything but human—she makes a choice that will unravel her solitary existence.

His return triggers a brutal civil war with the usurper who stole his throne and his fated mate.

In a world of broken thrones and fated bonds, they will discover that the greatest choice is not between love and duty, but between who you are told you must be, and who you choose to become.
The CEO's Unspoken Love
Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.
"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.
My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.
My nightgown had ridden up, his hands discovering more of mine with each caress. We were both lost in sensation, rational thought receding with each passing second...
Three years ago, to fulfill the wish of his grandmother, I was forced to marry Derek Wells, the second son of the family that had adopted me for ten years. He didn't love me, but I had secretly loved him all along.
Now, the three-year contractual marriage is about to end, but I feel that some kind of sentiment has developed between Derek and me that neither of us is willing to admit. I'm not sure if my feelings are right, but I know that we can't resist each other physically...
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.
Accardi
“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.
Genevieve loses a bet she can’t afford to pay. In a compromise, she agrees to convince any man her opponent chooses to go home with her that night. What she doesn’t realize when her sister’s friend points out the brooding man sitting alone at the bar, is that man won’t be okay with just one night with her. No, Matteo Accardi, Don of one of the largest gangs in New York City doesn’t do one night stands. Not with her anyway.
Let Them Kneel
Cast out by her pack. Forgotten by the Lycans.
She lived among humans—quiet, invisible, tucked away in a town no one looked at twice.
But when her first heat comes without warning, everything changes.
Her body ignites. Her instincts scream. And something primal stirs beneath her skin—
summoning a big, bad Alpha who knows exactly how to quench her fire.
When he claims her, it’s ecstasy and ruin.
For the first time, she believes she’s been accepted.
Seen.
Chosen.
Until he leaves her the next morning—
like a secret never to be spoken.
But Kaelani is not what they thought.
Not wolfless. Not weak.
There is something ancient inside her. Something powerful. And it’s waking.
And when it does—
they’ll all remember the girl they tried to erase.
Especially him.
She’ll be the dream he keeps chasing… the one thing that ever made him feel alive.
Because secrets never stay buried.
And neither do dreams.
The Dragon's Last Fae Queen
“Prince? Dickhead? Asshole? Or stalker?” A slow, dangerous smile curved his lips. “Maybe I should show you the one title I want you to use.” Before I could react, his hand closed around my chin, tilting my face up. His lips crashed into mine, hard, claiming, breath-stealing. When he finally pulled back, his voice was a rough whisper against my lips. “You could call me yours… because you are mine.”
Bound by Fate, Freed by Choice
