In a dystopian near-future where debt can cost you your life, Ruby and Felix, two fiercely loyal adopted siblings, have become infamous for surviving the brutal, televised death matches known as The Circuit. Raised by a once-powerful businessman turned debtor, their adoptive father has used their victories to climb back from ruin-but at the cost of their blood and trauma.

Now entering their third and final match, the stakes have never been higher. Held in the frozen debts of Russia, this year's event promises carnage unlike any before-and the siblings' last chance at freedom. Their father has finally paid off the blood debt he owes... or so they think.

But when Orlov, a powerful and calculating Russian mob boss with deep ties to The Circuit, watches Ruby from the private viewing lounge, he decides she is the prize he wants most. And he will win with money, influence, and sadistic charm.

Rosa never thought she'd make it to sixteen... When being unique puts you in danger and speaking your mind can be punishable by death, you might find yourself fighting to survive. Sixteen-year-old Rosa lives in one of the eight enclosed cities of The Woodlands. Where the lone survivors of a devastating race war have settled in the Russian wilderness because it's the only scrap of land left habitable on the planet. In these circular cities, everyone must abide by the law or face harsh punishment. Rosa's inability to conform and obey the rules brands her a leper and no one wants to be within two feet of her, until she meets Joseph. He's blonde, fair-skinned, green-eyed, and the laid-back complete opposite of Rosa. She's never met anyone quite like him, and she knows that spells danger. But differences weren't always a bad thing. People used to think being unique was one of the most treasured of traits to have. Now, the Superiors, who ruthlessly control the concrete cities with an iron fist, are obsessed with creating a 'raceless' race. They are convinced this is the only way to avoid another war. Any anomalies must be destroyed. The Superiors are unstoppable and can do anything they want. After all, they are considered superheroes by the general public. But not everyone sees them this way. When they continue to abuse their power by collecting young girls for use in their secret, high-tech breeding program, they have no idea that one of those girls has somehow managed to make friends even she didn't know she had. And one man will stop at nothing to save her.

"Touch me, Blaze... and you'll remember me every time something beautiful dies." -- She was the only sin he'd die to confess. So he destroyed his kingdom for her absolution. -- 𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫. Power built their world. Power destroyed it. She pulled the trigger that turned his hate into a kingdom of fire, and now fate binds them to the same war. Hate keeps them sharp. Hate keeps them alive. But hate is just another mask for power. And when it cracks, they'll both discover the cost of letting go. -- In a city ruled by blood and silence, some names are spoken only in whispers. New York breathes violence like smoke-its kings crowned in crime, its peace bought in bodies. Blaze Marino, heir to a fractured Italian empire, doesn't believe in myths. He believes in control. In power. In pain as currency. But when a woman with white hair and a scar like prophecy crashes a masquerade of monsters, everything changes. She moves like fire. Vanishes like smoke. Leaves no name, no trail-just destruction and desire. And with her, the game changes. As alliances crack and old ghosts crawl from the shadows, Blaze finds himself caught between revenge and something far more dangerous: curiosity. Obsession. A pull he can't explain. They say saints die young. But what if she was never a saint at all? And if she was- maybe she always knew how her story would end.

These teeth won't let you go. ✷ Dutiful. Naive. Spoiled. Gwendolyn Wu, eldest daughter to the ruthless patriarch of the Vermillion Birds Triad, has been sidelined from the family business for the fact that she was not born a son. Not like her brothers, whom her father expects would lead the triad someday. But when her eldest brother, Gideon, is murdered at the hands of vengeful and cruel boy-king Enzo Armati, newly anointed don of the Armati crime family of London, Gwen simply can't sit back and watch. Cold. Calculating. Merciless. Enzo Armati, the sole heir to his father's syndicate empire, is hellbent on revenge. The death of his father bloodies the hands of the Vermillion Birds, and so he must enact vengeance as he sees fit. A son for a father. He takes the Vermillion Birds' eldest heir. But it's not enough to sate the bloodlust, the rage. When the opportunity for the perfect revenge lands right in his lap ─ literally and figuratively ─ in the shape of Gwendolyn Wu, the spoiled and coveted princess of the Vermillion Birds, Enzo seizes it. Kidnapped and imprisoned in an opulent cage of marble and ivory, Gwen knows she's in over her head. Now, she must do the impossible: thaw her captor's frozen heart before he breaks her. But as the days pass, as secrets begin to unravel, as Enzo finds the mirrored glimmer of a dark likeness buried deep in Gwen's soul, as Gwen peels back Enzo's layers and finds inside him the man who could've been, mutual distrust quickly unspools into a mutual obsession. Or, perhaps, mutual possession. Both have teeth in the other. Both refuse to let go. Both refuse to fold first. © raiden ╱ 2025 GLORY & GORE #1 No one in this story is a good person.

At the tender age of seven, I became a victim of a tragic incident that tore my world apart. Witnessing the brutal murder of my parents, I was thrust into a life governed by circumstances beyond my control. My uncle, driven by a sense of duty, took sole custody of me, unintentionally steering my destiny toward darkness. As I grew older, I adapted to my new reality and found myself entangled in my uncle's criminal organization. They called me Rosa, a name that would become synonymous with power and fear. I relentlessly worked my way up the ranks, determined to prove my worth and earn my uncle's trust. Yet, just as I was on the brink of solidifying my position as his successor, fate dealt me an unexpected blow. My best friend's sister mysteriously vanished, and all evidence points to my uncle as the last person to have seen her. Consumed by a relentless pursuit of the truth, I vow to leave no stone unturned in my quest to find her. In this treacherous world, where loyalties are fleeting and dangers lurk at every corner, I am willing to risk it all. Now eighteen years old, I stand at a precipice, faced with a choice that will define my ultimate path. As I embark on this perilous journey, I discover that the line between victim and victor is not as clear-cut as it seems. In a realm where even the most powerful tremble in the face of vulnerability, I find the strength to confront my past, challenge my present, and ultimately forge my own destiny. In the face of adversity, the saying holds true: even the mightiest rulers scramble desperately when faced with a decisive blow. "Rosa" is a thrilling tale of horror and adventure, where the victim becomes the victor in a battle against darkness, self-discovery, and the pursuit of justice.
