Han’s life changes after a mysterious accident leaves parts of his memory shattered. When he wakes up, Choi Seungmin the quiet, controlled heir to a powerful hotel empire is the one standing beside him, claiming they were about to begin a relationship before everything fell apart. With his memories blurred and his past uncertain, Han has little choice but to trust him. But the world Seungmin belongs to is far from ordinary. Behind the luxury of the Choi family’s hotels lies a hidden network of corruption, blackmail, and exploitation carefully buried beneath wealth and influence. Seungmin grew up inside that darkness learning how to survive it, control it, and sometimes even use it to protect the people he cares about. Then Chaewon appears. Once a rising idol whose career was destroyed overnight, Chaewon transfers into Han’s university carrying a reputation filled with rumors and scandal. What no one knows is that Chaewon’s fall was not an accident he was one of the many victims swallowed by the same powerful system Seungmin has been trying to keep under control. Han knows nothing about that world. Seungmin is deeply tied to it. And Chaewon has already been broken by it. Almost everyone around Han is connected to that hidden world in some way whether as participants, witnesses, or survivors. They know the truth that Han does not. Because Seungmin kept Han away from that darkness for as long as he could. But secrets cannot stay buried forever. As the truth behind Seungmin’s family business slowly begins to surface, Han finds himself pulled into a dangerous reality he never knew existed. The deeper he goes, the more he realizes that the person he trusts the most may be hiding the darkest secrets of all. Caught between the man trying to protect him and the one who survived the darkness, Han must decide what he believes and whether love is enough to survive a world built on lies. Because once the truth is revealed, none of them will walk away unchanged.

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.

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!!!
