The Secrets We Bury by pradabagg

*READ "How to be a Heartbreaker" AND "Kings Conquer" FIRST!* At Blackthorn University, The Revenants rule the school. Ten dangerously captivating men whose power is unmatched, they dictate who rises, who falls, and who disappears. Feared by their enemies and worshipped by everyone else, they are bound by loyalty, secrets, and a dark past. But even kings have weaknesses, and for The Revenants, it's the women who challenge their control. Some are ghosts from their past, others are new forces shaking their world, but each one has the power to unravel the carefully constructed empires they've built. In a world where love can be a weapon and betrayal is inevitable, the bonds they form threaten to destroy everything. As buried truths rise to the surface and alliances fracture, the game at Blackthorn becomes deadlier than ever. Trust is a dangerous gamble, and power always comes with a price. In the end, it's not just the secrets they've buried that could destroy them-but the people they've let in.

My Fucked Up Fairytale by pinenutters

TEASER: "No fiancée of mine needs to learn how to fight." His breath flows upon the prickling skin of my neck. I close my eyes, involuntarily shuddering in response. "All you need to know how to do is satisfy me." "How exactly am I supposed to satisfy you?" The answer to such a question is obvious, yet, like the idiot I am, I still asked him. "Blood...and of course, other means." BLURB: Cyra is pulled into a foreign world where humans are rarities while vampires, elves, werewolves, witches, and more strange creatures are the norm. That's the least of her worries though. Now the bride of one of the most powerful vampires in all of the kingdom, she is faced with two choices. One: give in and accept her doomed future with a husband who detests humans, or two: successfully kill him before he is crowned King of Bestias.

Enter the world of Achernar, a realm steeped in magic and mystery, where the fate of four planets hangs in the balance. Althea, a 20-year-old torn between two lives, is stuck on the wrong world. Haunted by her past and stranded far from her home planet of Eryndor, she lives a dual existence-by day, a loyal knight, and by night, the most wanted criminal. In Ashes of Eryndor, Althea's mission is clear: overthrow the Four Gods who rule over the planets and free the world from their iron grip. With her sister-in-all-but-blood, Vin, by her side, Althea hatches a daring plan to lead the largest revolution ever seen. But to do so, she must infiltrate the royal palace of Syphorite, disguised as a trusted knight. As Althea delves deeper into the perilous world of political intrigue, her every move is fraught with danger, and her true identity is at constant risk of being exposed. With cunning, bravery, and a will to survive, she navigates the treacherous waters of court life, all while seeking the elusive knowledge of Planetary Teleportation. Only this ancient technology can return her to Eryndor and reunite her with everything she's lost. But the Four Gods are not easily defeated. With each step, Althea is forced to confront the ghosts of her past, the weight of her choices, and the question of whether redemption is possible-or if she will forever be trapped on a world that was never meant to be hers. Will Althea succeed, or will the gods' power prove too great to overcome? Follow her journey to find out.
