Rise of the Demon Monarch by H_Books20

Book 1 of RoDM series. The black-robed man gave me an indifferent look, and I saw a twisted smile forming on his lips. "All your positive emotions and feelings, and you shall never again become happy or feel joy, cursed to forever pursue power. That is the price for your life and your revenge." I smiled. "I agree." I never had anything of my own anyway. This price was very cheap in comparison to my greed. Let a monster be born in my stead. Let the blood of my enemies flow like rivers. Let my pursuit of power be obsessive and never-ending. These were my last thoughts before the darkness engulfed me. ❆ ❆ ❆ Raphael Langston was despised, enslaved and thrown away. Right when he was about to die, he gained another chance at life. He will have to travel the Demon World, enter the incoming wars and change the future in order to perform his revenge and rise to the top of the world. However, there are too many mysteries about his own reincarnation that even he cannot understand. Who is he? What is the true purpose of the war between demons and humans? Why did they get invaded by Otherworlders? Raphael will do anything to get to the bottom of these secrets and find out the true meaning of his existence. TRIGGER & CONTENT WARNING! The book contains scenes with violence, torture, slavery and manipulation that may not be appropriate for certain audiences.

Callidus Rising | Complete ✔️ | Book 1 by JAChaffin

[COMPLETED] •Being revised... AGAIN (Progress: Intro-Chap. 3)• "We're going back... Understand? There are more threats out here than we anticipated, and they're all after you-" Lukas' voice erupted into static and chunks... I glared at the man in all black as the light continued to beam and blind me. Without my glasses it was actually painful. And then there was silence. My bare feet hit the metal floor of wherever we had jumped to, and I put my hand up to shield my eyes from the vicious attack of bright light. Not again."

With the majority of the population infected with a viral genetic plague, almost any of the survivors could access this technology... Including Alexi. When a simple quest for survival turns into a journey of a lifetime, will Alexi be able to survive the weight of the gruesome truth when she finally uncovers it?

THE DELIVERER'S DESTINY by sarsar14

In a world ruled by tyranny, four teens are brought together to embark on a harrowing mission - to find the son of a god. *** "Sometimes some must die in order for the rest of us to survive." Ever since the condemned rebelled, the world of Desmond has been shrouded in darkness. Having ripped the throne away from the Creator Himself, King Motch keeps a firm-taloned grip on his subjects, aided by a ruthless, gifted being known as the Veiled Lady. Families are torn apart as parents are forced to give up their children to be raised by pitiless trainers who groom the children to become brain-washed warriors. All who fight back are dead. In a strict society built on the blood of the people, hope is a rare term. Yet it is still had. Against all odds, four lives are entangled. A timid boy brought from another world, a princess warrior on the run, a young soldier haunted by death and duty, and a slave boy with mysterious gifts - they are brought together to fulfill words spoken long ago: that a Deliverer would come and find the Creator's son, who, in turn, would save them all. Thrown into the fight of their lives, the four must work together to bring about a change in a dark and dangerous world. The mission the Deliverer has been given is a necessary one, a foreseen prophecy spoken of long ago. Therefore, Motch knows they are coming. And, as we all know, dragons love playing with their prey.
