"No matter the choices you make, I will never forsake you. Should you be cast aside like gravel- carry my power and live as you please from this day onwards."

In this world, everyone has powers of their own, but around the age of six, they must take a vaccination to seal them away- only the Jarumi, the leaders of the people, are permitted to utilise their gifts. To those that dare disobey? They grow ill and die in an average of 5 years.

Everyone knows the Jarumi are hiding something- something big. But the only ones who dare go against them are the Seraphs; a group with unknown motive, rumoured to partake in human experimentation and other unethical methods.

But, Daphne does not want any part in that political chaos! Although fate.. had other plans.

When her father grows ill, Daphne embarks on a journey to find her brother for help- leaving their small town, her naivety would do no good. But entangling herself with the fate of the world? She must've been the unluckiest girl to exist.

Although, in truth, she was an insect stuck in that web from the day she was born.Tutti i diritti riservati

The wolves of Hood Mountain, Book 1 : HUNTER - PART 2, When the wolf is away di SylviaDeLorme

When the Cat's Away, the Mice Will Play. Except in my case, the "cat" is a wolf... and the "mouse" is me. Bianca Ashford, just your average human. But as for playing? Yeah, not happening. I'm not in the mood for fun. My return to California is a total disaster. It's like my karma tanked the second I crossed paths with those damn werewolves-one catastrophe after another, no break in sight. The people I love keep walking out of my life, and my world turns into a twisted grab bag of surprises. Spoiler alert: they all suck. Betrayals, shocking truths, attempted murder-take your pick. But the real kicker? My "forced vacation" in Oregon left me with way more than just trauma. And meanwhile, back in the neighboring state, an entire pack is probably hunting me down. Because while I'm doing everything I can to put this nightmare behind me, they sure as hell aren't forgetting me-or the bond that ties us together. For Hunter, their bossy Alpha, I'm not just some random human. I mean a whole lot more. And he has no intention of letting me vanish. With his blood brothers at his side, he's ready to do whatever it takes to track me down and, more importantly, protect what's his. Their instincts are sharper than ever, but their patience is running out fast. The wolves are closing in, my secrets are piling up, and I'm fresh out of escape routes. When my situation spirals out of control, I'm faced with an impossible choice. Can I make it out of this, or will the endless curveballs finally take me down? And more importantly... how long can I keep running? One thing's for sure: this game is far from over.

The Presence di WPutman68

The Blackwell Legend. It dates back before the Salem witch trials, which tells of a family having mystical abilities to open portals, make objects move on their own, and even... talk to the dead. Over a hundred years ago the two eldest brothers had a falling out that split the family. One side turned to the light, and used their gifts cautiously; while the other embraced the dark, and death always followed. Present Day... After moving into a haunted house, gifted twins Max and Megan Blackwell hear of the legend and discover they've moved to a town that hate and fear them because of their name. With the help of new allies they must decide who to trust as they fight against evil, both the living, and the dead, and struggle to find their untold destiny as The Chosen Ones...

A Cold Wind Blows (Forgotten series, #3) di AMLKoski

Book three of the Forgotten series ~ Weakness is not allowed in the Mountain packs. Living in the mountains, away from civilization and away from the eyes of mundanes. The Mountain packs are harsh and brutal. Shifter against shifter. Pack against pack. Wolves against wolves. All fighting for the same thing. Survival. Azrael Thorn was a powerful Alpha. He had taken his title by force, as tradition dictated. Power and authority of the Alphas and shifters who had challenged him and lost radiated off of his tall, bulky frame. He was dangerous and he was everything an Alpha of a Mountain pack should be. Yet he had no mate or family to call his own. But a mate who could not stand the bitterly cold winters or the brutality of the pack would not produce strength. It would only bring weakness. Weakness is not allowed in the Mountain packs. ~ If the pain stops, it means you are dead. Lace Owens is underestimated at every turn. Her small and delicate built matches her name but the power of defeated enemies hang off her heavily. A power and an authority that would bring many men to their knees if they sensed it, hangs off of her like an oppressively dark cloud but she hides it carefully. Unwilling to let anyone see just how powerful she has become. Her skin is marked with a painful past and she has turned a thing of cruelty into a thing of beauty with her blade. Swirling patterns adorning her skin, hiding the cruelty among her willing pain, her only comfort against the world around her. If the pain stops, it means you are dead. ~ Two world collide as Azrael and Lace form a bond and spiral down into unfamiliar territory where Azrael is shown that strength doesn't always come from size and Lace learns that love can spring from even the most painful places. Together they show the werewolf world a long held belief still stands strong. Weakness is not allowed in the Mountain packs. ~

But she's not doing it to fight the Immortal. She's doing it for freedom. However, the Fates she's refused to believe in have different plans for her. Will she fight their design? Or succumb to their wishes? Follow Emerys through her adventures as she fights for her life in the world outside the village. She will find new mentors, forge friendships for a lifetime, and learn how to navigate through a world that relies on mana with what little she has. See for yourself what the Fates decide.

Recalls of Surrender di RileyDavj

Alchemy has always been a key to understanding the universe, yet it has often been dismissed as mere superstition. The truth seared through my veins like scorching heat, igniting every cell of my being with a searing, uncompromising judgment. I sacrificed everything-my strength and sense of identity-chasing after an overwhelming purpose. Duty and conviction waged a war against a primal yearning for freedom, unleashing a maelstrom of emotions that threatened to tear me apart. This internal hell fueled an insatiable, maddening lust for vengeance, obliterating my moral compass and propelling me toward utter destruction. Only when I made a final decision did the fundamental principles of morality seem to slip through my fingers like grains of sand. Each savage blow against the oppressive system left me questioning: am I a righteous crusader, or a monster consumed by hatred? The poisonous doubt gnawed at my mind, suffocating my thoughts with insidious whispers. Yet, I found the strength to silence them. With fierce determination burning in my veins, I vowed to break free from the chains of oppression or die trying. Fear would not hold me captive any longer. As I teetered on the edge of life and death, I couldn't help but wonder: would I emerge victorious or succumb to the relentless wheels of fate? The answer lies shrouded in the mists of an uncertain future, but one thing is irrefutable: win or lose, every decision will ignite an inferno of change. This cataclysmic revolution will raze the old world and herald the birth of a new era. In this cosmic roulette, even the most steadfast warriors can turn to dust in the blink of an eye. Therefore, are you willing to participate? Given that there always was, is, and will be war. Hope stands stronger than fear, yet anything is possible when darkness lingers. It is the deflection of accountability and guilt. Yet when all seems lost, trust that the butterfly knows where the water flows.

Elowen Skye Thorne has always felt like the outsider in her pack, too strong, too fast, too... different. Raised by a strict gamma couple deep in the wilderness of northern Minnesota, she's spent her life hiding her instincts, biting her tongue, and fighting the pull of something ancient within her. But three days before her 18th birthday, a box of forbidden letters arrives, written by her late father, a fallen werewolf beta who died protecting her from something far worse than hunters. The truth inside those letters? Elowen isn't just a wolf. She's a hybrid. The only one of her kind. Born of a powerful fae royal warrior and a werewolf. Marked by the Moon. Chosen by prophecy. And now... hunted by The Aegis Protocol, a secret organization hellbent on capturing, dissecting, or breeding her into submission.

Something primal. But trust? That shit doesn't come easy. Especially not when everyone wants a piece of the girl born to destroy bloodlines, break curses, and burn empires to the ground. Dark magic. Savage shifters. Prophecy. Soft girl rage. Coming of age. Why choose. Reverse Harem. Fantasy world. Magical creatures. Spicy chemistry. Welcome to your next obsession.

Night Disease di kipekipe

REVISED EDITION COMING OUT MONTHLY/COMPLETED In a world overrun by zombies, A single bite heralds doom - except for Kaindra, who defies death itself, being undead already. ******** As humanity struggles to adapt to the new reality of zombies-infested streets and lurking supernatural creatures from ancient myths and legends, survival becomes an ever-evolving challenge. Survival is a constant battle not only against the undead but also against supernatural creatures and their zealous followers. The relentless onslaught of zombies and the mysterious reemergence of mythical beings push society to its limits. Civilization's last bastions fall one by one, teetering on the brink of collapse. As these ancient myths awaken, they reveal intentions that are far from clear- some may hold the key to salvation, while others could herald further doom. The question remains: Can humanity unravel the mysteries of these legendary beings in time to save themselves, or will they fall prey to the very legends they once dismissed? ___ Excerpt: Taking a deep breath, I lean closer to the mirror, my skin prickling. I thought it was a trick of the light, but as I stare at my reflection, my fragile lies crumble away. The reflection staring back at me feels unrecognizable. My once deep, dark brown eyes now glimmer with an otherworldly light, like twin moons suspended in a sea of silver. The faint glow within them swirls softly, catching the dim flicker of flame I summoned, like ripples across a moonlit lake. Their alien intensity sends a chill down my spine. The orbs seemed to hold a universe within, depths of endless mysteries and ancient wisdom beyond my grasp. ___ Warning: Mentions of suicide and self-harm Beautiful cover made by @scmimi.

Silent Echo: The Prophecy Of Azureth di janeWr1tez

Thousands of years ago, in an act of balancing the good and bad, a prophecy was made by the two bridge-keepers of Azureth and Earth, Velkrith and Edrakar. The prophecy stated; A time shall come when a child, born upon Earth, awakens to true consciousness and mastery of such gifts that the seal between realms tremble, for the dark emperor of Azureth, Malakai, to rise. The king's wicked power will pierce the fabric of peace that has long divided the worlds. And when that day arrives, no man will remain to tell the tales of the fall of Earth again. In that hour, the chosen child shall stand at the edge of destiny - to either guard the light or surrender to the darkness for eternity. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Note: To the folks that will be reading the book, I just want to make it clear that english is not my first language. Therefore, if you spot any mistakes in the written work, please do inform me. I would really appreciate it! The book may contain certain sensitive topics such as suicide, self-harm, blood, physical violence and sexual harassment etc. So, if any of these topics trigger you, I suggest not reading or simply, just skipping those parts. Have a great day readers! Author, Jane

The Alpha Dragon's Prisoner di TonyaDavis240

Tika They delivered me to him on a silver platter. Four years ago I was an ordinary girl with a privileged life. After killing the only family I have left, they call this my penance. As I watch the man they call a monster from underneath my lashes, the handcuffs burn on my wrist. The orange jump suit makes sweat drip down my ample bosom as he growls at me. "Mate" he roars. The others around us freeze as we are lead in line. His eyes never leave me as he gives orders while others call him Alpha. With a snap of his fingers I watch as one of his men shreds himself apart to turn into a hideous beast. As I meet his golden gaze and my world starts to tilt, only one thing is clear. I just became the prisoner of a monster. ~ Xander When I imagined my mate, I saw a woman of strength and great beauty. When I met her eyes for the first time she wasn't in chains. She wasn't a prisoner facing persecution for a crime. I find the sweet scent of her to be contradicting. The way my cock hardens behind my robe as she looks at me from underneath her lashes, lets me know that she is a very bad girl indeed. In that moment I decided, since I always bring out the best in people.....this time, I want to bring out the worst.
