He's her stoic gargoyle guardian - and she's the curvy heiress who tempts his granite heart. Ariella Wainwright, heiress to a fortune, is caged by golden bars of high society and her father's overbearing protection. With a mind as sharp as her curves are lush, she craves the adventure that's always been just beyond her reach. But when danger breaches the walls of her sheltered world, it's not just her spirit that's freed-it's the shadows that hunger for Wainwright blood. Enter Callum, the alpha leader of a hidden clan of gargoyles, whose very existence is intertwined with the Wainwright legacy. His wings are her shield, his gaze an unspoken vow of eternal protection-and yet, a smoldering desire threatens to breach the boundaries of duty. As Ariella's naivety to the supernatural world fades, so does her resistance to the magnetic pull between them. But with an ancient enemy lurking in the darkness, ready to extinguish the Wainwright line, the stakes soar higher than Callum's silent, moonlit vigils. Will the passion that flares between them fan the flames of their survival, or will it spell doom for both?

Once an award-winning chef with a flourishing food empire, Elena Valdez never imagined her life would end in tragedy-or begin again in another world. Reborn as Alaina, the Duchess of Aisenburg, Elena awakens in La Vita, a realm of magic, monsters, and rigid noble traditions. Trapped in an unfamiliar body and bound to a distant, intimidating duke through marriage, Alaina must learn to survive court life where whispers cut deeper than blades and trust is a luxury few can afford. With no allies and little warmth in her new home, Alaina turns to the one thing she knows best: cooking. Infusing her dishes with care, memory, and quiet passion, she begins to soften hostile servants, disarm rival noblewomen, and slowly bring life back into the cold halls of Aisenburg estate. As shared meals replace formal silence and the scent of warm bread and simmering sauces fills the mansion, an unexpected intimacy grows between Alaina and her husband. Each dish becomes a confession, each bite a promise-pulling them closer despite secrets, danger, and unspoken desire. [ WARNING! There will be a few chapters with graphic sex scenes.

Jack's younger sister (Y/N) goes on the adventure of a lifetime sailing the high seas with her best friend Will on a mission to find her long lost brother. On her journey to find Jack, she stumbles into something much bigger than she expected.

Instead of Gomu Gomu fruit, Luffy eats the Storm fruit (Arashi Arashi no Mi). With the power of Storms in his hands, Luffy will turn the World upside down. Rated M for sexual content, violence and cursing. Different-DF-Luffy. Harem.

I didn't think about it. That was my first mistake! All I can see if the distasteful image of the Flying Dutchman catching up behind me. I rowed as fast as I could. My breath was short but I refused to give up. Behind me was another ship with the East Indian Trading Company flag waving high, also heading towards me. I was doomed. I knew I was doomed the minute I started dealing with Pirates but I never thought that it would come to this. I would be taken prison, possibly tortured and killed all because I am Sailing with Pirates.

After Gol D. Roger's dying words drove all kinds of people to the sea to chase after dreams that only the Grand Line could satisfy, two young kid's worlds would be changed forever. Monkey D. Luffy and Portgas Akari (who took Ace's surname because she saw him as close to an older brother as anyone, and he insisted she take it) have the pleasure of meeting 'Red Haired' Shanks, and thus paving the way towards them wanting to become pirates. Now at the age where they can set out on their own, Luffy and Akari have begun their pirate journey, and it is all uphill from there. [Thank you for the amazing cover by @ktjhs_kay. It is so pretty and I love it!] (The only thing that is mine is Akari, everything else is thanks to the brilliant mind of Echiro Oda. Without him, Akari would have found no home.) (#1 in LuffyxOC tag, so that's pretty cool!) (#1 in MyOC tag, so that is cool!)
