My Darkening Ember by LisaEvaaOlsen

"This bounty is mine, Xander," He said. It was the first time I ever heard his name. Xander smirked, "Kill me first, then take her." He proposed arrogantly, a silver knife resting confidently in his hand. The man only nodded once as his hand slithered inside his jacket, pulling out another knife. "With pleasure." He finally said and stormed forward. ⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆ After her father died, Elora escaped her arranged marriage, leaving behind the only boy who had ever shown her love.

If you will give it patience the story will be rewarding later, or I hope it does. It has a lot of focus on the plot so this is not where you will find your smut, although I do not judge even slightly. There is sexual scenes however that is later when the plot has been established.

Return of the Demon Sovereign (Book 1) [MxM] by Hopestrife

[BOOK 1] REBOOTED COMPLETED Legends once spoke of Erebus, a great cultivator who stood against an army of darkness. He fought bravely alongside his brothers for many years but found himself betrayed. Those he called family poisoned and tortured him-seeking his death. When he escaped, he was demonized and painted as a villain of the realms. Thus, Erebus turned to the army of darkness and discovered the truth. His foe was never the darkness but the great beings manipulating the realms-Titans. He picked up his daggers and spent centuries fighting against these monsters, but fell short of his goal and lost his life. When he believed death would give him rest, the Shadow Deity revealed another plan for him and offered a new life. Erebus found himself in the body of Eri Themis, the outcast and trash of the prodigious Themis family. Starting over again, he will find himself standing by new allies and facing his old enemies. Can they stop the corruption and deceit spread by the gods? ***This novel will have mature language and violence.*** An earlier version of this novel was released a couple of years ago; however, I have rebooted it to this current version. This is an MxM novel but is considered a slow burn.
