After dying a traitor's death, Roanna wakes up in an interstellar future where rare human women bond with beast clans. To her shock, she's assigned not one, but nine legendary beast-men husbands-all impossibly rich and powerful. There's just one catch: they all despise her. One wants to dissolve the bond. Another tries to buy her off. A third ignores her completely, preferring his fame. Humiliated, Roanna decides to break every single match. That's when a mysterious [Pampered Beauty System] activates, giving her a radical new mission: "Make your ex-mates regret losing you. Gain luxury points for every tear shed by a former husband. Achieve ultimate independence." Suddenly, her cold CEO lion-shifter leaves billion-credit contracts at her door. The military general wolf-shifter starts a war to protect her reputation. The famous singer dragon-shifter writes ballads about his "lost mate." Now Roanna has to decide: accept their groveling love and power... or use her system to become the richest, most desired woman in the galaxy-all on her own terms.

    "He was supposed to be my enemy... not my fated mate. Damn it." Centuries of war have left only scars. Now a fragile peace forces them face-to-face: One vampire. One wolf. Two enemies bound by blood and fate. Lucien Duskborne is everything a vampire prince should not be...dangerously charming, scandalously reckless, and far too clever for anyone's safety. Sent as a political envoy to the werewolf highlands, he carries silver fangs, sharper lies, and orders that could ignite war all over again. But then there's Rhydian Ashborne. The wolf-heir with golden eyes and a smile that hides claws. A true alpha with a scar that burns whenever Lucien is near. Courteous, disciplined, the perfect prince... until his temper cracks and the beast inside him snarls for blood. What begins as a battle of wit and willpower soon spirals into something darker. A bond that should not exist. A prophecy buried in ash. A hunger neither of them can control. Because when a vampire seduces his enemy... And a wolf finds his fated mate... Love isn't the only thing at stake. Kingdoms will fall. Blood will spill. And fate will make monsters of them both. ---- Core Genre: Fantasy Romance + Boys' Love (BL) / LGBTQ+ Romance Subgenres: Dark Fantasy + Enemies to Lovers + Fated Mates + Supernatural + Action / Adventure Flavor Tags: Political Intrigue + Slow Burn + Forbidden Romance + Dark BL

    Book Two of The 9th Arm continues a genre-bending narrative that moves across Earth, Nyxoria, and the medieval world of Sunsire, following Stoker as each realm reveals a different truth about his nature. In Nyxoria, a world untouched by human conflict, he is confronted not with war, but with order. Not with scarcity, but with abundance. What should have been paradise instead becomes a test of his limits, as he struggles to understand a society that does not operate by the rules that shaped him. Within S'erayah's polyandrous household, he must learn new forms of loyalty and belonging, even as he resists them. And as he adapts, he is drawn toward an inevitable judgment. His presence on Nyxoria is under evaluation, and his hearing before the Council of Elders will determine whether he can remain in a world that has no place for what he once was.

    Magic didn't go away-it just had to learn Windows. One moment my party and I were finishing a quest. The next, I woke up with the back of my head throbbing-in the body of a five-year-old. Adapting to a world where magic seemed nonexistent was its own kind of pain-until I discovered my magic still worked. Just differently. I also quickly realised I wasn't the only one forcibly relocated between worlds. So what's a displaced mage to do? Open an adventurers guild, of course. I wish I could claim the idea, but I'm not the first to try it. I am the first in this region, though-and apparently the only one providing a much-needed community service. Don't believe me? Does your workplace network keep glitching no matter what IT does? Does your smart car refuse to start when you're heading to an important date? Do your appointments disappear from your calendar? You might have gremlins. Or a jealous ex casting curses. Or a possessed computer. That's what quest requests are for. Just don't upset the residents. Not all of us handled the move very well.

    In public, I'm the obedient daughter of House Velmire. In private, I'm learning to dismantle everything they've built. It started with an interrogation. Sirius Lioren-Union reformer, political rival, the right hand of the man I was sent to sabotage-broke every belief I'd ever held. Not with torture, but with questions I couldn't answer. Now I see the truth. And I can't unsee it. So I go back to the manor. But not as the meek daughter they think I am. I smile through arranged marriage negotiations while my heart belongs to the one man I can never have. I master forbidden magic that could stop a heart while passing secrets to the resistance. I play the perfect heiress while the people in the lower quarters become the family I choose. Every stolen glance with my family's enemy feels like treason. Every secret meeting pulls me deeper into a world I was raised to destroy. Every moment I spend on the wrong side of this war, I become someone my family wouldn't recognize. But revolution has a cost. And when the careful balance I've built begins to crumble, when my grandfather's suspicions sharpen, when I'm forced to choose between the people I love and the power I wield... I'll discover exactly how far I'm willing to go. Even if it means becoming the monster they always wanted. Even if it means breaking rules I didn't know could be broken. A fantasy of forbidden love, political revolution, dangerous magic, and the impossible choices that fracture everything. Updates every Tuesday and Friday.

    Damien's life was always unusual, never settling in one place for long. But he didn't know what extraordinary truly meant until the dreams started - vivid, haunting visions of strange lands and impossible events, like something torn from the pages of a fantasy novel. When those dreams begin to bleed into reality, he realizes these aren't nightmares; they're memories from another world. A hidden truth, concealed from him his entire life, threatens to shatter his very understanding of the world-a secret that reaches across two worlds, involving a crown he never knew existed and enemies far more dangerous than anything he could imagine. As magic awakens in his blood and dark forces close in, Damien must uncover who he really is before someone decides he's too dangerous to live. Some doors, Damien will learn, are locked for a reason.

    Sora died tired. A burned-out urban agriculture student with an undiagnosed illness and too many unpaid hours, she collapsed alone in her apartment and woke up screaming in a stranger's arms reborn as a farmer's daughter in a dying village with gray soil and no future. Sora's skin is warm brown, inherited from her Japanese mother and her Black American father(OG world look). It tans deeply in summer and fades to a softer amber in winter, always scattered with freckles across her nose and shoulders sun damage from years of working uncovered. Her hair is the thing people notice first. Dark, dense, coily-curly, growing in a thick cloud that refuses to be tamed. She's tried every oil, every braid pattern, every headscarf knot the village women know. Nothing holds it for long. Most days, she settles for a loose puff or two lumpy braids, with stray curls escaping around her ears and the nape of her neck. When she's working hard, she wraps it in a faded piece of blue cloth that used to be her father's shirt.

    The gold appeared at dawn. No one saw it arrive. No one dared touch it. In the mist-shrouded village at the foot of the mountains, Elira has always lived by the rules of survival. But when an intricately carved gold bracelet, something far too ancient and precise to be human-made, appears by the village well, she is the first to recognize it for what it truly is: a mark. A claim. Vaelrith is not the dragon of mindless legends. He is a creature of calculation, ancient power, and a hunger that spans centuries. When he chooses Elira, it isn't just for her life, it's for a bond that begins to shift the very foundations of her world. As a storm of ancient magic and dangerous consequences gathers, Elira is forced to choose: resist the tether that pulls her toward the mountains, or step into the storm and discover what happens when a human heart beats in time with a dragon's soul. One offering. One choice. One bond that will redefine them both.
