''What? Did you just call me a gold digger? Do you think I'm interested in your miserable life, and useless money?!'' she yelled back at him.

'' Miserable? Useless? Then why the heck did you agree to this marriage?'' he grinned.

'' Who does not want to chase her dream and achieve a life of her own? I just wish I had the opportunity.'' With all the pains in her heart, she could do nothing but to obey the rule in the contract she had signed and never to let him know that it was the old man's doing.

.....
Anna was compelled to sign a contract due to her father's situation, to marry the only heir of Yul's family.

Yul's group is the top leading company, and ever since the founder kicked the bucket, it has been controlled by the shareholders.

As the real heir, it was high time Lucian Freud took over from his father's company on one condition that he had to get married first.

But is this what Lucian really wanted? What would he do to his contract wife from whom he felt the warmth long-lost in his life? Would Lucian be able to live without Anna after he became the CEO of the company?

At exactly 3:07 a.m., an entire city block plunges into darkness — and someone disappears. No evidence, no bodies, no return. Detective Mara Ellison is assigned to investigate what begins as a string of vanishings in Crescent Heights. But when the blackouts spread across the city, Mara uncovers a chilling truth: the phenomenon is tied to a long-buried Cold War experiment that opened doors never meant to be touched.

Each night, the disappearances grow bolder. Each victim leaves behind fragments of a pattern pointing to something older than science, something alive in the dark. As the hours tick away, Mara must confront the impossible: the vanished are not gone… they are somewhere else. And that place is bleeding into her world.

The deeper she goes, the more she realizes she isn’t just chasing a mystery — she’s racing against time to stop the final blackout, when not just a block but the entire city may vanish forever.

Jorren Thale has known failure his whole life. Not the ordinary kind. The kind that gets stamped into your official record, that follows your family name like a shadow, that makes evaluators smirk before you even press your palm to the stone.

When the Soulstone cracks at his touch and brands him with a zero grade, everyone in the chamber considers his story finished.
They are wrong.
A stranger with sixty years of secrets hands Jorren an ancient codex that the Evaluation system was never built to accommodate. The book does not give him power. It shows him what is already inside him, broken, hollowed, and waiting to be rebuilt from the inside out. Every ascension costs him something. Every level up is paid for in pain, sacrifice, and choices that reveal exactly who he is becoming.
But Jorren is not climbing alone. There is Davan Rell, the Keeper's other student, exceptional and dangerous, who watches Jorren the way a predator watches something it has not yet decided to eat. There are enemies embedded in the institutions that condemned his family. There are allies whose loyalty has not yet been tested. And somewhere above every level he reaches, the system he is climbing has already noticed him.
Jorren Thale was born to fail every trial. He is about to become something the trials were never designed to produce.

"You have until midnight. After that, all deals are off. And your daughter? She works for me until every cent is paid back. With interest."
Aria never imagined her father's secrets would cost her freedom.
One desperate phone call is all it takes for her world to shatter. A debt she never knew existed. A bargain she never agreed to. And a man who doesn't forgive, doesn't forget, and never loses.
Cassian Romano is Chicago's most feared mafia king. Cold. Calculating. Untouchable. When her father fails to repay what he owes, Cassian takes the only collateral left.
Her.
Aria expects cruelty. She expects punishment. What she doesn't expect is the way her pulse betrays her when his dark eyes hold hers. The way her breath falters when his hands steady her. The dangerous flicker of something almost human beneath his ruthless exterior.
She should hate him. She should fear him.
Instead, she finds herself drawn to the very man who owns her fate.
In a world where power is everything and mercy is weakness, desire becomes the most dangerous debt of all.
Because some debts are paid in blood.
Others are paid in surrender.

Kai Voss was the perfect weapon, a ghost assassin forged by the shadowy organization known as The Veil. He lived by one rule: complete the contract and disappear.

Until the night they slaughtered his wife and young daughter.

Framed for the murders and hunted by the very people who trained him, Kai rises from the ashes with a single purpose: vengeance.

Armed with nothing but a growing list of names, a rogue hacker ally, and skills sharpened in blood, he wages a one-man war against The Circle — a cabal of untouchable elites who control governments, weapons, and the future itself through Project Eclipse, a terrifying neural control program.

As Kai cuts through the layers of power, he uncovers a devastating truth: the man who raised him as a son, the legendary Ghostmaker known as Reaper, orchestrated the hit on his family. And the deadly title of Ghostmaker is now his by succession,whether he wants it or not.

With every kill, the line between hunter and monster blurs.
With every betrayal, the stakes rise higher.

In a world where loyalty is currency and power devours the innocent, one broken ghost must decide:
Will he burn the empire that created him…
or become its final, unstoppable ruler?

Thrown into a realm of extravagant social events and corporate meetings, Ren opposes Al-Martinez's cold attitude. Between stolen kisses in the kitchen and late-night strategy meetings over drawing boards, an unexpected bond forms. With each passing day, it becomes hard to discern genuine connection from a well scripted act.

However, secrets can ruin even the most meticulously planned events. When a startling revelation sparks a frenzy in the media, the couple is faced with a critical decision point.

Will their relationship endure the scrutiny, or will their disastrous choices result in both of them being alone, financially handicapped, and filled with feelings of betrayal?

“You kissed me like you meant it. Then you disappeared like I meant nothing.”
“I kissed you because I meant everything. That’s why I ran.”

I was raised behind bulletproof windows and diamond lies. A Mafia Princess. The spoiled daughter of New York’s most feared kingpin.
But when war ignited, my father didn't send his soldiers.
He sent him. Dante Valeri—the family's cold-blooded enforcer. A man forged in shadows. My protector. My nightmare. My obsession.

He hated my softness. I hated his control.
We should’ve killed each other.

Instead, we kissed so deeply and desperately—and he touched me like he didn’t care who was watching.
Until the night I found out he murdered my mother.

He vanished without a trace.
Left me shattered, betrayed, ruined.
Three years later, he returns—ruthless as ever, claiming he has proof my father orchestrated it all.

I don’t need saving.
I want the truth, even if it kills us.

I was a broke scholarship student. Chloe was an old-money heiress and the untouchable cheer captain.

She paraded me through her elite world and even generously shoved me at her ultimate crush—Aston, the ruthless son of the school board director.

But when Aston and I actually got together, the princess bared her fangs.

She staged a severe fall to drain my meager savings, then framed me for stealing her family's heirloom necklace. And Aston? He dumped me immediately, sneering that I was just a cheap prop desperate to climb the social ladder.

Ostracized and cyberbullied by the entire school, I was locked on the rooftop during the Winter Formal and left to freeze to death in the snow.

But when I opened my eyes...

I was back at that deafening party. Right at the moment Chloe first introduced me to Aston.

My mother had no medical license, yet wealthy socialites lined up to hand her fat checks.
I often saw her lead those women into the treatment room, where agonizing screams would pierce through the locked door.
But strangely, those same women emerged radiant, as if they'd shed twenty or thirty years overnight, pressing stacks of cash into her hands with tearful gratitude.
What baffled me more was how she doted on the hired girls like her own daughters.
Yet toward me, her actual daughter, she was nothing but cold—always quick to criticize or strike.
Finally one day, curiosity won. I mustered the courage to peek through that door crack and saw what really happened inside...

I'm eight months pregnant, throwing up so violently I can taste bile, three "miracles" growing inside me.

Until that night at their celebration dinner, when I leaned against the wall and heard laughter from inside the private room.

I could hear the amusement in my husband Frank's voice: "Let's up the bet—another million. I'm betting two boys, one girl."

His mistress Ava giggled: "You already know the results."

"Of course," he said casually. "They're my children. Of course I know."

Then I heard it.

They talked about my womb like I was some kind of breeding machine.

They clinked glasses, debating "whose eggs were worth more."

They were even betting on "which baby would come out first."

And there I was, outside the door, my swollen feet barely holding up my aching, stretched body.

Inside, they were laughing and celebrating.

Celebrating their perfect little surrogate, carrying my husband's babies with his mistress.

Right then, the nausea just... stopped.

I just felt cold.

And slowly, a plan started forming in my head.

"Don't call her a bitch, asshole," Sierra hissed.
"What's it got to do with you?" the greasy creep demanded.
"Oh, I don't know, Stimpy, maybe because you're harassing my woman and she just got here."
"Oh, shit, Orion. Sorry, man. Didn't realize she was with you."
Orion: As the heir apparent to the Primal Howlers' MC President patch, a chance encounter with a beautiful woman pulls me into a war I wasn't expecting that could bring the whole club down. But when she runs from me, I will pursue her to the end of the earth to find her and bring her back.
Whether she likes it or not.
Raquel: I moved to Monument, Colorado to write my thesis and get some much-needed distance from my overbearing family. What I didn't expect was to find myself hung up on a biker who appears to have nothing to lose.
I, however, have everything to lose and I'm worried Orion just might be my downfall.

Condemned as the villainess, betrayed by her betrothed, and executed in disgrace—Lady Seraphina Valmoré thought her story had ended. But fate gives her a second chance. Reborn with the memories of her past life, she swears never to play the fool again. This time, she will not beg for love. This time, she will wield her mind like a weapon and her heart like a shield.
But the game of fate twists cruelly when her greatest enemy, the feared Prince Kael of Drakoria, takes an interest in her. Cold, ruthless, and untouchable—he should be the last man she trusts. Yet in his shadowed gaze, she finds the one thing she never expected: protection.
As Seraphina schemes to expose traitors, outwit her stepsister, and rewrite her destiny, she must walk a knife’s edge between vengeance and vulnerability. And when love blooms in forbidden soil, she must decide—will she rewrite the ending of her story, or embrace her role as the villainess the world has always feared?

"I, Kiara Vane, reject you, Alpha Liam!"

Kiara was the Westland Pack’s greatest joke: a blind, wolfless Luna married to a man who loathed her very existence. Pushed to suicide by her own twin sister’s betrayal and her mate’s cold-blooded cruelty, she was meant to be a forgotten footnote in history.

But the history books lied.

Cassandra, a feisty 21st-century student with a sharp tongue and a heart of steel, finds herself sucked into the cursed pages of an ancient text. She wakes up in the past, inhabiting the body of the "Dead Luna" under a blood-red moon.

But there’s a catch: this version of Kiara can see. And she isn't crying for mercy anymore.

Alpha Liam is a monster who swore to destroy the pack's traitors to avenge his mother’s death. He expected a broken, sightless girl he could easily crush.

Instead, he finds a defiant queen who looks at him with mockery instead of longing… a woman who seems to know his secrets before he even speaks them.

As Cassandra navigates a world of silver blades, ancient witchcraft, and a mate bond that burns with a dangerous new hunger, she has only one goal: make them all pay.

But as the "wolfless" girl begins to show the heart of a dragon, the predator slowly becomes the prey.

Liam is no longer looking for revenge… he’s looking for the woman who stole his soul.

But one question haunts the entire pack:

If the real Kiara died that night under the red moon… then who… exactly… is the woman wearing her face?

“You seem to have forgotten that you’re not marrying a commoner, Alina. You’re marrying the prince of all vampires, so look alive and get me some coffee.”
Alina Deluca lives a normal life up in the Californian north. At least that’s what she makes the world believe. Locked within her hypnotizing emerald eyes are horrors she could never speak of, even if it killed her.
Erick Stayton, the vampire prince, is her nightmare. To her, he was no more than a cold, savage predator that lusted for her blood and took away everything she had during that one traumatizing night four years ago. Problem is, she is bound to be his bride.
Mustering every strength to set things right in her awry life, she gets embroiled in an ages-old feud and a struggle for power of mind-boggling proportions. Strangely enough, she finds herself connecting with Erick in ways she never knew she could. Suddenly, everything is not what it seems.
Is Erick the heartless monster Alina makes him out to be? Will a vampire law made eons ago be the undoing of the whole vampire race? Will heated passion bloom in these bloodiest of times?

When Edie Marshall meets a mysterious - and drop-dead gorgeous - man in the woods just outside her small town, she has no idea who he is or where he’s come from.

She has no idea why she has such an instant, intense connection with this dangerous-looking man, with his arms full of tattoos and his deep, velvety voice.

She has no idea why she trusts him enough to tell him things she’s never told anyone else.

And she definitely has no idea that their brief, passionate encounter will lead to her getting pregnant.

It’s only then that she learns her “mystery man” from the woods is actually Rafe Fontaine - celebrity, Hollywood royalty, and notorious womanizer.

Can she trust her heart - and her baby - to Hollywood’s wildest bad boy?

Due to explicit scenes, this steamy romance is rated 18+.

She has no idea how much her life is about to change.

I thought the worst betrayal was finding my fiancé in bed with my best friend.

I was wrong.

The worst betrayal was being drugged, bagged, and sold to the highest bidder in a supernatural slave auction.

Now I am standing on a stage in Toronto, surrounded by monsters I did not know existed, while two of the most powerful beings in the supernatural world are tearing the room apart... fighting over me.

Cassian Vale—the ancient Vampire Lord with blood-red eyes and a frozen heart. He looks at me like he knows me, like he has been searching for me across centuries.

Kael Carson —the ruthless Lycan King with golden eyes that promise both protection and destruction. He claims I belong to him, that fate itself has bound us together.

They hate each other. They have been at war for longer than I have been alive.

But they both want me.

But what they both do not know about is my powers and to what extent it could make or break either of them.

I am a direct descendant of the progenitor of the vampires, the Night King Dracula, who has been asleep for three hundred years.

On that night when my power was not yet fully awakened, I was betrayed by my beloved, humiliated by my family, and watched helplessly as my beloved Emily teetered on the brink of death.

When all hope points to the abyss of despair, a legendary holy spring that even darkness trembles with becomes the final light of salvation.

To save Emily, I resolutely stepped into the Holy Spring and underwent the ultimate purification by the power of light.

A miracle was born.

I was the reincarnation of the Ancient Star God and the fated mate of the Obsidian Dragon King, Ignis.

For seven years, I nearly bled my divine blood dry to break his curses. Everyone knew I loved him unconditionally.

Until his cold sneer shattered it all.

"Seraphina has laid my egg. After the Hunting Festival, I'll crown her as my queen. Keep Elara around to placate the Alliance. She's so madly in love with me, she'll gladly be a shield for them."

Something snapped deep within my chest. My empathy veins—the very magic that bound my emotions to him—shattered.

No heartbreak. No hysteria. That suffocating love was erased in an instant. Looking at Ignis now was like looking at a worthless stone.

I calmly returned to the temple and activated the marriage decree sent by the Elven High King, Aurelius.

The realm portal was charging. Departure: three days.
