Ruins of Luci

Gray_is_God
Elias Reed was a data analyst, murdered on Earth for a secret he never understood. He wakes up in the body of Alucent Luci, a Scribe-Weaver in a steampunk world where magic is a precise, unforgiving code etched into the fabric of reality. Senele is a world dying from beauty. A surreal Turquoise Moon radiates a strange light that warps the laws of physics, causes economic collapse, and invites parasitic horrors from beyond the veil of existence—creatures that feed on memory and leave blissful, empty shells in their wake. To survive, Alucent must master the Threadweave Hierarchy, a magic system where advancement is a ritual of self-discovery, and failure means madness, corruption, or death. But his greatest weapon isn't a spell; it's the analytical mind of Elias Reed. He sees the patterns others miss, treating the world's encroaching anomalies as glitches in a system he is desperate to debug. Yet, in a world where magic is governed by emotional clarity, his soul is a corrupted file—haunted by the guilt of his new life and the ghosts of the family he lost on Earth. To save this world, he must become a master Scribe. But to do that, he may have to erase the last traces of the man he used to be.

Bloodstained Vows

In the shadowed underbelly of New York City, two once-innocent hearts are forged anew in betrayal and bloodshed. Elena Rossi was the untouchable princess of the second-largest mafia family—pampered, protected, and promised a life without stains. Until the night her father is gunned down, shattering her world and leaving her clan teetering on collapse. Her only salvation lies with the man she once loved and now despises: Luca Moretti, the ruthless boss of the rival Moretti empire. The boy who stole her first kiss under summer stars has returned from five years abroad as a cold, lethal predator—scarred, unforgiving, and more powerful than ever. Desperate for revenge and survival, Elena swallows her pride and begs for his alliance. Luca agrees... but his price is cruel and intimate. She must become his mistress—body, nights, and secrets surrendered completely. Every touch reignites old flames; every argument ends in bruising passion. As they hunt her father's killers together, buried truths surface: the assassination was no simple power grab, but a deeper conspiracy that threatens both empires. Hatred twists into obsession. Revenge becomes redemption. And the line between enemy and lover blurs until it shatters entirely. In a world where trust is a luxury and love is a weapon, Elena and Luca must decide: will they burn everything down for vengeance... or build something unbreakable from the ashes? A steamy, second-chance enemies-to-lovers mafia romance packed with face-slapping tension, slow-burn fire, weak-to-strong heroine growth, dark secrets, and a love that could destroy them both.
