JINU'S PAST by oopsijustinked_

Every demon has a human beginning. Before the world knew him as the ruthless leader of the Saja Boys, before his voice carried shadows across kingdoms, Jinu was only a boy with a song. A starving singer with nothing but a broken lute and a promise to protect the family he loved. But hunger drives choices, and desperation opens doors best left closed. One fateful bargain with the demon king Gwi-Ma gave Jinu the power to captivate the world - and the chains that would forever bind him. Now cursed to sing melodies that spread despair, Jinu rises to fame as part of the legendary Saja, immortal performers whose songs shatter kingdoms. Yet behind every performance lies his secret rebellion: a struggle to keep his humanity alive through fragile notes of defiance. This is the untold story of Jinu's human past - a tale of music and corruption, love and sacrifice, rebellion and ruin. It is a reminder that even those who seem lost to darkness were once children who dreamed of light. And for Jinu, the greatest question remains: Can a cursed song still carry hope?

The Villainess Won't Play by IronyDreams

Selena Ashford's life was nothing but a monotonous shell-until one fateful morning, she wakes up as Seraphina Ashenveil, the villainess of the very fantasy romance she despises: Whispers of Hearts. Known for its twisted plots and the inevitable death of its villainess, Selena's new life is a nightmare. Ugh.. Why this stupid book!? As Seraphina, she is surrounded by two figures who mark her doom: her ruthless father, Aldric Ashenveil, and the male lead, Caius Valerian, whose cold indifference promises only betrayal. But fate throws her an unexpected twist-she crosses paths with Killian Valmond, the second male lead, a fiercely loyal and annoyingly arrogant knight who dies in a most pathetic yet stupid way for the female lead. Tsk, Cliché. But he is not leaving her side. He sticks with her like she's something which either needs to be guarded or protected. She can't tell which. Stupid Man. Seeking refuge, Seraphina hides in a small village, where the kind-hearted locals accept her without asking questions. Despite her growing frustrations with Killian's persistent presence, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about her new reality. Something is off-no one seems to be playing by the rules of the story, and the characters seem eerily alive, drifting away from their roles as if the book itself was a mere myth. Or Maybe.. Is it? Slowly, Selena uncovers unsettling truths that suggest her life, the worlds, everything might be a lie. As the lines between fiction and reality blur, Seraphina must decide if she can carve her own path to survival or if she's destined for a fate far worse than the book ever predicted.

Forever (Book 1) (Editing) by CrYsTaL87

*His eyes were the first thing I noticed as he looked up at me. Such a dark blue they reminded me of sapphires. My heart jumped at the feel of them as he held my gaze. I was in a trance unable to look away and it was as if he could see into the very soul that gave my body life. My skin crawled with goosebumps as his eyes changed from curious to predatory in a matter of moments. A shudder passing through me as my heart beat faster. He could see me. Like really see me and I cringed at the gut wrenching fear that ran through me, watching as his tongue ran smoothly over his lips. He looked like a predator about to hunt his prey. Me being that prey. His grin was intimidating as he spoke to the boy next to him and began to come my way.* Lacey Yasmine just moved to the small town of Moonlight Creek with her aunt seeking new lives in a place where they could start over. A place where their demons would be safely locked away behind the barrier. A place where they wouldn't dare to follow. Moonlight Creek was where the largest pack lived and this is where her secret would be the safest, where she would be the safest. Right here in the heart of the wolves den. Lacey could feel it like she felt everything. Until unforeseen situations take place and the life she worked so hard to rebuild begins to crumble changing for all time. Change was good. Welcomed even. But this time she had everything to lose. By birthright, and with the essence of her very being, she can only hope for the strength to stand tall and proud when the time came to reveal her secret and that the wolves would listen.

Sanguine's Justice [The Boys x reincarnated male reader] by SamaelWinchester1234

The only thing more dangerous than a god is a god trying to be good. Elijah Vance is the perfect hero Vought never wanted. Resurrected with the divine power of the Primarch, he is the Sentinel-a figure of impossible strength and perfect moral clarity, capable of facing Homelander and winning. But perfection is a lie. Elijah is cursed by the Red Thirst, a hidden, savage rage that threatens to consume his soul with every act of violence. He is locked in a war against Vought, Homelander's tyranny, anìd the monster inside his own mind. To fight a shadow war, he needs shadows. He forms a volatile, uneasy alliance with Billy Butcher and the remaining outcasts: the cynical, broken Queen Maeve, and the defiant, shining Starlight. Their mission is clear: expose Vought's crimes, dismantle the V-supply chain, and rescue the most dangerous secret of all-Ryan, Homelander's innocent son. Butcher wants to use the boy. Elijah vows to save him, making a desperate covenant: the Angel and the Butcher will personally train the child to be the only supe worthy of the name. The pressure is crushing, and the inevitable confrontation with Homelander looms. Elijah's only defense against the looming darkness is an impossible, messy truth: the fierce, grounding love of Maeve and the pure, guiding light of Annie. They are the anchors that keep the god human, and the women who fight to save his soul-and each other-in a world that demands their destruction. Can a god choose to be good when his nature screams for blood, or will the Triumvirate of the Soul shatter under the weight of the world?

Reaper & The Angel: Shadows of Past, Embers of Love by Cresswel147

Premise Damien Black-Heart was once the most feared name in the underworld - a mafia king whose empire was built on blood, power, and vengeance. But the night he tried to leave that world for love, he was betrayed - cursed by a dying witch whose child he killed. The curse condemned him to immortality, forcing him to live forever while everything he loves turns to dust. The woman he loved, Krystal Snow, was bound to him through the same curse - doomed to reincarnate again and again, with no memory of her past lives. Each time she remembers him, she dies in his arms. Now, in modern-day New York, Damien runs his criminal empire from the shadows - ageless, ruthless, and haunted. When he meets a young art restorer named Krystal Snow, everything stops. She has the same eyes. The same voice. The same soul. And when she touches him... her heart stutters, as if it remembers. But Damien knows what comes next: if she remembers who he is - if she remembers them - she'll die again. So he does what he's never done before. He fights not to make her remember - but to break the curse that keeps them apart. Even if it means burning the world that worships him as the Reaper
