Karma Thoth came to the sprawling complex in the desert called Neither Here Nor There as a last resort. She'd trusted the wrong man with her lyrics, and he'd cheated her out of a record deal by passing them off as his own. She was told "the boss" could help her, whatever that meant. But when she discovers the truth about the Las Vegas musical underground-and the one man who she feels she can trust-she'll have to decide if she wants justice, revenge, or something more. 

This story is set in the world of Gods of Rock 'n' Roll.

The Karma Project by knikole_
50 parts Complete Mature
Today I want to die. Not because of anything in particular or specific, but just because the utter thought of ceasing to exist sounds devastatingly euphoric. To make the noise stop. To stop this stabbing pain in the lowest pit of my stomach that's causing a burning sensation that crawls all over my skin, making me want to peel it off. To stop the guilt that festers every time I take a breath-- an oxygen thief. To stop the constant urge to detonate over anything and everything that dares to love me because in all-- I could never deserve such an honor. Today I want to die. For the longest time, I thought I was just unlucky. That sometimes life doesn't work out for everyone, and for people like me; things just never get better. I had settled into the life of being unlucky, reveled in it, and found comfort in knowing that no matter what; I would just be categorically unlucky. That was until I realized luck had nothing to do with it. It's karma. It's the idea of what goes around comes around, and what goes up must come down. Didn't some philosopher speak to that once? However, it isn't my karma. Well it wasn't at first-- somewhere down the line after all my wrongdoing I'm sure it has switched to mine. But I am the poor soul stuck with my father's karmic retaliation. The karma that he deserves has been thrown against me as some sort of sick cosmic joke-- I'm sure he'd actually celebrate and feast on the fact that once again, he still gets to hurt me even from his grave. Too bad I killed him before he had the chance to see. *Book One in the Karma Duet. Book Two is now in progress, titled: The Karma Study*

There are much older generations, far removed from the world we know today. Many before us have transcended the boundaries of mortality, leaving behind echoes of their existence, remnants faded but never forgotten. In our world where we live, and breathe, there are whispers of the extraordinary. Among these tales, those naturally born with the gift of shape-shifting stand apart, often cast in shadows of suspicion and disdain. Society views them as embodiments of wickedness, a misunderstanding rooted in fear. It is not they who are wicked; rather, it is mankind's capacity for cruelty that brings darkness into the light. As the stories unfold, the line between myth and reality blurs, and what began as a simple narrative transforms into something far more complex tapestry woven with threads of the unknown. One such story tells of a man destined for something greater. Over time, rumors grew, painting him as a deity for all who walk in the light and shadow as a wolf. He became an object of reverence and fear; she-wolves and he-wolves closed their eyes and trembled at the sound of his name. Yet, beneath this veneer of legend lay a deeper truth. What they believed was a man-made into an unforeseen story of an exiled god, in reality, been a transformation wrought by both choice and circumstance. He was something forever altered by forces beyond his control, the essence of his humanity still lingered, even when he could no longer hide the beast within. Stephanie's fate is in between two different worlds. One of the Gods of old and the world she once knew. A love triangle blossoms and she doesn't know what's truly her wish. To be at the side of Riley Augustine, or Chase Ares. Through an unspeakable forbidden act. She knew she was destined to be the mate of a natural-born God.

"NOT ALL LIGHT IS GOOD, NOT ALL DARK IS EVIL" Their meeting was fated. She was the goddess for him, while he was just a mistake for her. "Firstly, it's Adrian Salvatore, but you can call me anything you want. And secondly, I came here to make a deal. After all, we are business executives, so we should make a deal before doing anything, right? Go through the papers and tell me if you have any problem with it", he said. "Why do you think that I'll say yes to this fucking deal? The whole deal is my fucking problem!!!", she yelled. "Because you don't want your secrets to be revealed. Isn't this so simple?", he said with a smirk on the corner of his lips. 🐚🌷🦢🍷 Can a deal on the paper flip someone's life upside down? She could have rejected the deal, but why didn't she? Roohi Chatterjee is the CEO of "Ro-Code Global" and a Bengali girl from India. Outside, she appears to be a kind and caring girl, but betray her and she will reveal her hidden badass side. While Adrian Salvatore, CEO of 'Adware Tech' and son of a mafia leader, fell in love with Roohi at first sight. Maintaining two personalities, one in the limelight and other in the shadows, was difficult but not an impossible task for him. He never knew what was waiting for him, until she decided to show him the reality. He didn't know that she was not afraid of fire. Instead, she was the fire that might reduce his body to ashes. ● Update Schedule : Every Saturday ●

"You've given me a taste of you and now-- I want more." Shayla Hart, a 27-year-old, fiercely independent woman, with aspirations of becoming an architect lands a job at Cult Designs -- one of the most prestigious architectural firms in London. A night out with her two best friends to celebrate her new job quickly gets out of hand when she finds herself in Las Vegas, hungover, with no memory, and married to none other than Tristan Cole Hoult -- the devilishly handsome and charming stranger she met at the club whilst dancing. The meaningless, wildly passionate, one-night-stand with the irresistibly sexy stranger Shayla was hoping for, quickly becomes more than she had bargained for. ** Based on the popular TikTok series ** **THIS BOOK HAS NOW BEEN PUBLISHED ON KINDLE!** Link is in my bio!
