King’s Wives: Escaping Obsessive Love

Before there was a crown between them, there was a home. Two girls grew up under the same roof — not sisters by blood, but by choice and circumstance. The Queen, born to privilege and destiny. The other, a quiet, bright-eyed girl taken in and raised alongside her, sharing laughter, secrets, and dreams of futures neither fully understood. They promised nothing would ever divide them. Years later, one of them becomes Queen. The other becomes the King’s obsession. When the King first notices her, it feels accidental — a glance held too long, a kindness that lingers. But admiration soon hardens into something consuming. His love is intense, possessive, unwavering. He does not court her; he claims her. In his eyes, she is no longer a childhood companion or a subject of the crown — she is something he must have. The Queen sees the shift before anyone else does. What begins as insecurity grows into jealousy, and jealousy into quiet hatred. The friendship forged in girlhood begins to fracture under suspicion and pride. To the Queen, it feels like betrayal. To the girl, it feels like being trapped in a story she never chose. Caught between a King whose love suffocates and a Queen whose resentment burns, she must navigate a world where affection is power and loyalty can turn deadly. All she wants is a simple love — one not ruled by crowns or control. But in a kingdom where obsession wears the mask of devotion, survival may demand the ultimate sacrifice. King’s Wives: Escaping Obsessive Love is a haunting tale of friendship undone by power, of love twisted into possession, and of a young woman fighting to keep her heart — and her life — intact.

A DUKE'S CRIMSON SCANDAL

Lucien's control was fraying. He watched Elian's shoulders shake, watched fat tears roll down those flushed cheeks as the younger man tried—and failed—to hold back broken sobs. The sight should have disgusted him. Instead, it ignited something feral in his chest. "Be quiet, Elian," Lucien warned, voice low and strained. Elian's head snapped up, eyes blazing through the tears. "No! I will not be quiet!" His voice cracked, raw and defiant. "I demand you let me go. Set me—ah!" Lucien moved before he could think. In one brutal motion, he slammed Elian against the nearest wall, the impact knocking the breath from both of them. Elian's back hit stone with a dull thud, his wrists pinned above his head by one of Lucien's large hands. "Be quiet," Lucien hissed again, forehead pressed against Elian's, their breaths mingling hot and desperate. Elian whimpered, twisting uselessly in his grip. "You monster… you—" Lucien's mouth crashed down on his. It wasn't gentle. It wasn't a kiss—it was a claim. Hard, punishing, devouring. Elian gasped into it, the sound swallowed instantly as Lucien pressed closer, body caging him completely against the cold wall. The taste of salt from Elian's tears mixed with something sweeter, something that made Lucien's blood roar. Elian struggled for half a second… then his lips parted on a broken moan. Lucien pulled back just enough to growl against his mouth, "I said be quiet." But Elian—trembling, furious, aching—only whispered back, voice wrecked: "Make me." **** Some truths are worth killing for. ​Son of a traitor, Elian Morel was meant to burn in the Duke's dungeon. Instead, the ruthless Duke Lucien pulls him from the darkness and keeps him locked in his private wing—close enough to watch, to touch, to break. Elian hides a dangerous gift: with one touch, he can drag out the truth behind any lie. Lucien is cold precision and merciless control, a man bound by a royal betrothal and secrets of his own. But the more he tries to possess Elian, the more his iron restraint begins to crack. In a world of court intrigue and deadly politics, their charged proximity turns into something darker—something hungry. Every defiance, every forced confession, every lingering gaze pushes them closer to the edge. Between captor and captive, hatred and desire, a forbidden bond begins to form. One that could destroy them both. Power, obsession, and a love that defies the throne.

Monsters:The Garden Behind the Fence

DIE MENTALLY, RISE PHYSICALLY Rampage Eternally — A Thirst for Undying Combat The Year is 6077. Humanity had survived the end of the world. Unfortunately, the world had not survived humanity. Cities stretched across continents like metallic forests. Ancient ruins floated above the clouds. Monsters wandered through abandoned highways. Supernatural abilities had become an ordinary part of civilization—and the people powerful enough to control them had become something far more terrifying than monsters. They were called Wrathborn/Supernaturals/Extraordinaries. And among them existed something even rarer. Eons ago the Primordial Pillar, the living Mythical Core that held every law of reality in place, cracked and died in a scream of light so vast the gods still refuse to name it. From its corpse came the Glimmer Shards, radiant fragments that scattered across Earth and the black between stars, burying themselves in stone, blood, and forgotten places. Shards rained across the universe and ended up on earth which bonded with humans and animals these shards were called Glimmers/Glimmer Manifestation these would only bond when one went through near death, trauma or rare celestial alignments called seals but the codex existed a genetic engineering that changed the physical spiritual psychological attributes of the human/animal . ----- But......The Glimmer shards contained a virus called X. The Story is ensemble cast it will kinda focus on Kevin but alongside others aswell.

Cryptomining Supervillain

Wondered if a cryptomining app would make you a Superhero..or villain? Damen Dark is an unfortunate orphan trapped in a cruel household, forced to endure the abuse of his uncle, his family, and a world that seems determined to break him. One ordinary day, he receives a mysterious link on his phone advertising a new app—DemCoin, a cryptocurrency mining program. Damen knows it’s probably a scam. But curiosity gets the better of him. At first, the app seems harmless. It “mines” coins by targeting living beings—stray animals… and people. With little expectation, Damen uses it as a private outlet for his bottled-up anger, siphoning coins from those who torment him: his family, his classmates, the bullies who rule the streets. It feels like justice. It feels good. But DemCoin is far more than a mining app. As Damen accumulates enough coins, hidden features unlock—features that allow him to target individuals and steal their powers. What begins as survival turns into temptation, and temptation into transformation. With every stolen ability, Damen grows stronger… and more dangerous. Now faced with unimaginable power, Damen must choose who he will become. Will he take revenge on a world that never showed him mercy, or rise as a hero to protect it? The truth lies somewhere in between. In a cruel twist of fate, Damen soon realizes the irony of power: the stronger he becomes, the greater the threats that hunt him. And worse still, DemCoin is not just a tool—it is a force, subtly guiding his path. Whether he knows it or not, the app isn’t shaping him into a savior. It is forging a supervillain. And Damen Dark may have no choice but to become exactly that.

I am the Only Son of Nyx

Mankind prospered in the modern age, but one day, everything changed. Mana descended onto the world, making a permanent change to society. Alongside it was also the appearance of monsters invading the world from the sky and from below. Gods pitied mankind and bestowed divine bloodlines, creating superhuman people called the Supernals who can fend off the invaders. But not everyone who became a Supernal is suited for the role. Those people are pariahs that don't belong anywhere, especially when there are quotas for each divine bloodline. In a world where society revolves around those with divine bloodlines, Kai is a Supernal with the lowest talent. He doesn't fit with normal people and is too ordinary to mingle with Supernals. He was ostracized for hogging a slot in a divine legacy, and his only family suffered for it. But Kai isn't weak. It's just that nothing could properly check his bloodline.
