THE FORBIDDEN GROVE

Jessie_Uwaoma
The Forbidden Grove tells the haunting tale of Liora Wyndale, a gifted healer with a forgotten past and a bloodline tied to a cursed forest. After years of being warned to stay away, the Grove begins calling to her—through dreams, whispers, and visions of a life she can’t remember. When she finally steps beyond its edge, she awakens a dormant magic and a dark legacy left behind by her vanished family. Inside the Grove, Liora meets Kaelen, a former guardian seeking to right his past mistakes, and discovers that her brother Renan, thought to be dead, is alive—but no longer entirely himself. Twisted by the Grove’s darkness, he now serves the Keeper, an ancient and corrupted force that feeds on souls and offers power at a terrible cost. With the forest shifting around her and secrets rising from the soil, Liora must confront the truth about her origins and the weight of the destiny she never asked for. As the Grove’s power grows stronger, Liora is forced to choose: take control of its magic or destroy it forever. Either choice could mean losing herself—or saving what remains of the world beyond the trees

Obsessed with My Puppy Boy

At the age of ten, he shyly called out "Sister Jiang," a slender, small boy obedient like a little milk dog. She imitated the adults, kissing his forehead to comfort him. When they met again, he was dressed in a sharp suit with gold-rimmed glasses, his every move as noble and pure as glimmering frost and snow, unapproachably lofty. Tearing off that scholar's disguise, he finally revealed his fangs in the darkness. "Isn't this what you taught me?" he whispered, encircling her slim waist from behind and seeking a kiss, his voice seductive, nearly playful as he called out those two words, "Sister Jiang." Jiang Jiu only then realized that the other party had long since become an obsessive and scheming mad dog, in a place she knew not of.
