Villain : Conquest

Lone_Raut_
"MASS RELEASE UPCOMING!!!" Riyan wasn't special. Scholarship kid. Part-time barista. Casual anime fan. He existed in that quiet, unremarkable space between nobody and somebody — just another face in a city that never bothered to look twice. He died proving it. First, a truck. No warning. No dramatic slow-motion. Just impact, asphalt, and the warm spread of his own blood beneath him. Then her. Celeste. The Cultured Killer. A woman with a blade, a manifesto, and a list of names she's been crossing off one by one across the city. She hunts men she's already judged, already condemned, already buried in her head long before the knife comes out. Riyan tries to speak. To explain. To tell her she has the wrong man. She crouches down, looks him in the eyes— And finishes what the truck started. No trial. No mercy. No last words that mattered. He dies misidentified, bleeding out in a crosswalk, killed by a woman who decided who he was before she ever learned his name. It is, objectively, the most pathetic death in history. But something on the other side refuses to let it be the end. Riyan opens his eyes somewhere that shouldn't exist — a world soaked in darkness, ancient power, and rules that don't bend for the innocent or the deserving. He didn't come back grateful. He didn't come back soft. He came back remembering. This is not a hero's story. It is Story Of 'Pawn' [Dark Fantasy | Antihero | Morally Gray | Revenge | R-18] Support the Story!

Beauty and the Thief

“Did you mean ‘the Village Letdown?’” In other words: Tao Hua's life in Siyue Town is fucking miserable, and to cope, he escapes into the written words of fairytales. One fateful day, his entire routine is flipped upside down after running into a mysterious man who poses more questions than he answers. Though first impressions are often deceiving. Tao Hua soon realizes this man of eloquence and many talents shared something in common with Tao Hua: he was also fucking miserable, except he didn't even bother finding an escape! Bland! But what was one mean-spirited beast to a town of people who despises a beauty's entire existence? ──── ୨୧ ──── Beauty and the Thief is a slow-burn, stop to smell the roses, type of novel. That being said, the roses aren't your typical floral scent, and the prince isn't charming. He sucks, big time. It follows the POV of the princess, Tao Hua as he tries to understand just who this mystery man is and the curse that shrouds Chuhen Palace. ──── ୨୧ ──── Beauty and the Thief will be updated Monday-Wednesday-Friday. ──── ୨୧ ──── Disclaimer: This story borrows the premise of Beauty and the Beast, by Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont, relying heavily on the trope while also twisting it to smithereens. The beast element is exchanged for a power dynamic, and the curse differs from the original story. The narration borders on sarcastic, self-aware, while also targeting deeper topics. The narrator often breaks the fourth wall as a stylistic choice. ──── ୨୧ ──── !!!IMPORTANT WARNINGS!!! This story is morally complex and does follow topics such as abuse and manipulation. Understanding that, it's best to read knowing not all is what it seems, nor does the author endorse these themes. They just prefer to write darker topics with the potential of resolve.

Sold To Mafia Don

Isabella Martinez’s life shatters in one night. Dragged from her waitress job by loan sharks, she’s thrown onto an auction stage and sold like property to pay her father’s five-million-dollar gambling debt. Terrified and powerless, she watches as wealthy men bid on her future until HE walks in. Dante Moretti. The most dangerous man in New York. A billionaire mafia don who built a twelve-billion-dollar empire on blood and fear. When his cold grey eyes lock on hers, everything changes. He bids ten million dollars without hesitation, buying her in front of everyone. Bella expects horror. Expects to become his slave, his toy, his victim. Instead, she discovers something far more dangerous: Dante Moretti has a code. He protects women and children. He kills traitors without mercy but honors loyalty above all. And despite his brutality, despite the violence she witnesses, despite every reason she should run she’s falling for the devil who bought her. But loving a mafia king comes with deadly consequences. The Russian mob wants revenge. A traitor within Dante’s own family wants him dead. And Bella now seen as his greatest weakness becomes the target of every enemy he’s ever made. Forced to choose between the innocent girl she was and the warrior she needs to become, Bella must learn to fight, to kill, and to embrace the darkness. Because in Dante’s world, there are only two options: become the mafia queen who stands beside him… Or die. From sold at auction to ruling an empire. From victim to queen. From captive to the most dangerous woman in the underworld. This is the story of a girl who was bought for five million dollars and became worth five billion. Welcome to the mafia. Welcome to love. Welcome to war.

The Mating Ritual: She Came For The Gold, But Left Thoroughly Used

Warning: This book contains a large number of very hot adult scenes!(18+ ONLY) *PLEASE DON'T READ IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO INTENSE INTIMATE SCENES* "Say you're ours." Nicholas's hand tightened around my throat....not choking, just holding, reminding me who owned every breath I took. His silver eyes burned into mine, relentless and demanding. "Say it, Lilith." "I'm yours," I whispered, and the words tasted like surrender and salvation all at once. "Louder." Sebastian's voice was dark silk behind me, his massive body pressed against my back, his hands bruising my hips. "We want to hear you scream it." Before I could answer, Lucian slammed into me from behind, filling me so completely I saw stars. The stretch, the fullness, the overwhelming sensation of being claimed....it stole every thought from my mind. "I'm....." I tried to speak, but then Nicholas was lifting my leg, positioning himself, and suddenly he was pushing inside me from the front, and I was being taken by both of them at once. Too much. Too full. Too intense. "Breathe," Nicholas commanded against my lips, but breathing was impossible when they were both moving, finding a rhythm that had me trembling violently between them. "I'm yours!" The confession finally tore from my throat as Lucian's mouth found that sensitive spot on my neck, teeth scraping, threatening to mark me permanently. "I'm yours, I'm yours, I'm yours...." "Good girl," all three of them growled in unison. "Now prove it." Lilith Thorne is drowning. Her father.....Beta of Shadowmere Pack....was murdered six months ago. Her mother overdosed on wolfsbane and lies comatose. Her boyfriend found his true mate and threw her away like garbage. And she's wolfless.....a reject in wolf society, unable to shift, worthless and invisible. With eviction looming and hospital bills crushing her, Lilith makes a desperate choice: enter the Rite, an ancient ritual where unmated Alphas can claim women for one night in exchange for gold. But she's not paired with just any Alphas. She's chosen by Lucian, Nicholas, and Sebastian Blackwood.....the Cursed Alpha Kings. Triplets cursed by the Moon Goddess to find their true mate before they turn 26, or lose themselves to their wolves forever. They have three months left. What starts as a transaction becomes an obsession. The moment they touch her, their curse quiets. Their wolves recognize something in her. And they can't let her go. But Lilith is not what she seems. She's the last daughter of the most powerful witch bloodline in existence, her magic suppressed since birth. And when that magic awakens, it will change everything. When she finally learns the truth....that breaking their curse means taking it upon herself....Lilith makes a choice that will change everything. She sacrifices herself to save them, dying in their arms while they scream her name. But death isn't the end. It's only the beginning. And when she rises from the ashes, marked by death and wielding powers she never imagined, she won't be the same broken girl who walked into the Rite. She'll be something far more dangerous. Their mate. Their queen. Their salvation. Or their destruction. Part 1: THE CLAIMING How far would you fall for three kings who worship you like a religion and claim you like a conquest? Part 2: THE RESURRECTION How dark would you become to reclaim what death stole from you? The Mating Ritual is a dark paranormal romance featuring possessive alphas, intense sexual content, a strong but broken heroine discovering her power, found family, fated mates, and a love so consuming it transcends death itself. So guys for every 20 privilege chapters unlock, I will upload 5 additional chapters apart from the 3 chapters for that day. Gifts will be well appreciated also. Thank you!!!
