Maya Miyamoto has spent her whole life seeing things no one else can. Spirits that whisper in the dark. Shadows that move when no one is looking. When she is invited to the House of El, a hidden academy where students learn angel magic and train to fight demons, Maya believes she has finally found where she belongs. But something is changing. Across Europe, demons are no longer just whispering in human minds-they are taking control of them completely, something that should be impossible. And three of Hell's most powerful princes have taken an interest in Maya. One of them has already begun speaking to her. Belphegor. Prince of Hell. While the warriors of the House prepare for war, Maya becomes obsessed with a ghost tied to an unsolved mystery-one that leads to forbidden rituals, ancient secrets, and a truth the House council refuses to investigate. So Maya does the unthinkable. With her friends, she steals a magical RV and begins a dangerous journey across Europe-hunted by demons, monsters, and forces older than Hell itself. Their destination: The Underworld. If they survive the journey, they will stand before Hades and Persephone and walk the fields of Elysium, the paradise of the dead. But the deeper Maya travels into the realm of shadows, the more she realizes that this journey was never just about a ghost. It was about her. Because someone has been waiting for Maya to arrive. Someone who intends to Seal her. And when that happens, Maya will no longer be just a student of the House of El. She will finally become what she was always meant to be.

It's Teitan High School alone that made me want to start writing a diary.] Putting down his pen, the boy turned his gaze to the prize pool. Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Katekyo Hitman Reborn, Negima!

Vihaan Singhania is a man built of glass and steel-cold in manner, flawless in discipline, and unshakable in purpose. At thirty, he already carries an empire on his shoulders. As the CEO of the Singhania Hotel Empire, he lives for deadlines, decisions, and duty. His family comes first, his work comes next, and everything else is noise. Love, in his world, is an inefficiency. A distraction. Something he has no space for. Elina Chaudhary is his opposite in every way. At twenty-six, she is a determined young doctor specializing in gynecology, still growing, still dreaming, yet already certain that her hands are meant to welcome life into the world. She is gentle with her patients, fierce about her goals, and deeply in love with the idea of love itself. With her friends, she is bubbly, dramatic, self-obsessed in the cutest way-laughter follows her like perfume. But in front of Vihaan, her colors soften. Her confidence quiets. As if his silence slowly erases her sparkle. When fate binds them in a marriage shaped by expectations rather than emotion, two strangers from different seasons of life are forced to share a future neither of them imagined. He treats her like a responsibility. She tries to become a home. Between boardrooms and hospital corridors, misunderstandings and unspoken feelings, something fragile begins to grow. Because some hearts don't fall in love loudly. They learn. They wait. They change. And sometimes, love doesn't arrive like lightning- it arrives like warmth, the moment work ends and the heart finally begins. © 2026 Where Work Ends, Love Begins by Miss Lily. All rights reserved.

Homo sapiens sapiens-the Wise-Wise Humans are so much fun. They're good at giving headpats, they offer me snacks as sacrifices, and they die oh-so-easily. So, let's get along. If you give me some good headpats, I'll give you a gift. What's that? You're saying I don't have to? You're begging me not to give you one? I don't accept refusals or returns.

As his friend's lifeless body fell at the hands of a Seele, Itoshi could do nothing but watch-paralyzed, helpless, broken. Something in him snapped that day. From that moment on, he made a vow: He would never let anyone else suffer the same fate. No matter how far he had to go. No matter how many Seeles he had to put down. Since then, he's traveled the world with his squad, 663, "cleansing" every Seele infestation they find-efficiently, mercilessly. To most, he's a protector. A weapon of justice. But justice has a handler. Enter Miz-the calm within the carnage, or perhaps the one stoking the fire. While Itoshi burns through the world with his Blue Rage, Miz remains the quiet shadow at his side, offering a "humble" smile that hides more than it reveals. Is Miz the anchor keeping Itoshi's humanity intact, or is he merely the architect guiding a broken weapon toward a much darker purpose? Deep down, even Itoshi doesn't know if he's truly fighting for others, or just trying to fill the void that opened when he lost the only person who truly mattered. Maybe it's a mission. Maybe it's penance. Or maybe... with Miz watching every step, it's just an excuse.

He introduces him to Driving, a conviction-based magic tied to the very Cycles of civilization Rynth has progressed through. For the first time, Raoul realizes he actually wants something. The bird decides to peck off the lock on the cage. It chirps, seeking three from its flock that it used to fly with. Four pairs of wings soar higher than one, after all.

The world atop ours, one of magic and possibilities, is still plagued with evil, torture, and death.

In a modern world where humans, orcs, elves, and all creatures walk side by side, wealth and beauty define power as much as strength. Ivory D'Amour, the daughter of an old-money dynasty, is the city's beloved jewel-a ballerina whose grace has captured not just stages but hearts across every species. To the world, she is untouchable, a vision of elegance wrapped in innocence. But to Drazak Thorn, a ruthless and impossibly wealthy orc magnate, Ivory is more than a star to admire from afar-she is the one thing his fortune, cunning, and iron will cannot simply claim. For a man who controls empires of steel and finance, desire is usually conquest. With Ivory, it feels like fate. Their worlds could not be more different: hers built on refinement and fragile beauty, his on dominance and power. Yet when their paths entwine, society's eyes turn-half enchanted, half scandalized. And as whispers spread of an orc who would defy tradition to win the ballerina adored by all, Ivory must decide if Drazak's relentless devotion is dangerous obsession... or the kind of love powerful enough to shatter centuries of silence between their worlds.
