What Lingers Between Us

Connor knew him for ten years—ten long years. What started as a rivalry during their time at the Military Academy eventually evolved into a long-standing friendship. Connor was an agent of A.C.E. (Advanced Covert Operations Executive); he was merely eighteen when he was tasked with entering the prestigious National Military Institute. The order? Gather intel from none other than Thomas Francis. The Youngest son of the Franchis Family. From the first day of class, when Thomas was pummeling a fellow cadet, using his Dominant Pheromones to make everyone kneel, while he beat the shit out of their fellow man. Connor was the only one who had stood a chance, and the only one who dared to punch him. Their lives have been tangled ever since. The rivalry was stupid. But Connor felt the thrill, a beta beating a dominant alpha. And that dominant alpha came from none other than the Franchis? Though they did get past their hatred, eventually formed a deep connection. That lasted even when they graduated. Yet, Connor couldn't stop himself from forming a sense of attraction to Thomas. He knew it was wrong; they were friends, best friends. He tried to stop. Thomas had a fiancée. And yet, he couldn't control himself. His lips on his, it was wrong, yet it felt too good. That night was dreadful; Thomas, in his rut, couldn't control himself. That night led Connor to conceive. Which was rare, the chance was in a million. The surgery he had undergone to become a beta was undone. His body was changing. He had to keep that he was pregnant to his death, what would Thomas think? He was getting married, and he had a lovely fiancée. It was a mistake. And yet, Thomas asked him, on his very own wedding day, as if he were hoping for an answer. "Do you really want me to marry her?" Author's Note: This is my very first novel, English isn't my first language. I apologize in advance, I am still practicing my dialogues, and improving my writing skills. I hope you like the novel!

Transmigration:The Villain Wants A Happy End Without His BeastHusbands

After finishing a tragic novel where the villain is betrayed and killed by his own beast husbands, Li Wei does what any reasonable reader would do. He rants about the ending. Then he gets hit by a car. When he opens his eyes again, Li Wei finds himself inside that very novel, reborn as Su Ningyan, the future villain destined to walk a path of madness, war, and blood. Ten years before his fall. Ten years before his death. In the original story, Su Ningyan’s unstable phoenix beast core drives him toward forbidden power, turning him into a feared villain who ultimately dies at the hands of the men he loved most. This time, Li Wei refuses that fate. He will avoid the villian arc. He will heal his beast core. And he will stay far away from the four terrifying beast princes who will one day become his husbands. Unfortunately, fate has other plans. The academy meant to heal him becomes a battlefield of tension, rivalry, and instinctual bonds. The beast princes notice him far too early, and the more Su Ningyan tries to escape the plot, the tighter destiny coils around him. Because in a world ruled by beast bloodlines and ancient bonds, some connections cannot be severed only delayed. And the husbands who once killed him… may not be willing to let him go again. **** Excerpt Su Ningyan didn’t know where he was. At first, he thought he was dreaming. His body felt warm... too warm... and the scent in the air was unfamiliar, sharp and clean, like lightning after rain. He turned onto his side. And froze. A pair of golden dragon eyes stared back at him from inches away. The man was breathtaking. Long black hair spread across silk pillows, sharp features sculpted as if carved from jade. His presence alone pressed down on Su Ningyan’s chest, heavy and suffocating. His face went pale. “What the—” “You’re awake.” The man smiled faintly. Jun Haoxuan. Azure Dragon Clan. Future Beast King. And, according to the book, one of the men who would eventually become his husband. “Did you sleep well?” Jun Haoxuan asked calmly. Su Ningyan’s eye twitched. He was supposed to be avoiding them. So why was he waking up in the dragon prince’s bed?

Tied To His Forbidden Obsession (BL)

╭──────༺♡༻──────╮ In a city ruled by mafia bloodlines and vampire supremacy, survival is not a right—it’s a privilege that has to be earned. Adrian appears to be just a delivery worker trying to keep his mother alive in a world that devours the poor. But because of his bloodline he knows which streets to avoid, which eyes not to meet, and how to stay invisible. He’s learned that discipline keeps you alive longer than courage ever will. But one wrong hallway changes everything. After witnessing a murder meant to erase a past that refuses to stay buried, Adrian finds himself trapped under the control of Lucian Black—a young, untouchable vampire mafia boss whose power bends technology, territory, and lives with effortless precision. Adrian is not killed. He is kept. What begins as containment turns into something far more dangerous as Adrian proves impossible to break, impossible to discard, and increasingly impossible to ignore. Lucian remains cold, distant, unreachable—yet the longer Adrian exists within his world, the more fragile that distance becomes. In a society where vampires determine rank, loyalty is always bought with blood, and obsession is the deadliest currency of all, being wanted can be worse than being hunted. And some bonds, once formed, were never meant to be escaped. ╰──────༺♡༻──────╯ https://discord.gg/F5N7Ut45X. My book's discord server. Hi guys! it’s me again! This is my Cupid’s Quill entry.

Error: The Wrong Man Entered the Romance Novel [BL]

Error: The Wrong Man Entered the Romance Novel [BL] [Top/Seme MC x Multiple Bottom/Uke Leads] TAGS: R18+ | DARK | PSYCHOLOGICAL | MATURE | YAOI | HAREM | BL   WARNING: This novel contains mature themes (rated 18), psychological distress, and intense power dynamics. Reader discretion is advised. This is not a lighthearted romance.   Jang Taesoo rules the Aurora Consortium with an iron fist, shaping obedience from those under his control. When the weight of his empire grows stale, he finds escape in Lost in Paradise – a romance novel he knows by heart. However, his obsession lies not with the female lead, but with the five powerful men who fight to win her hand. A dark hunger stirs within him: to take these untouchable titans and mold them entirely to his will. After saving a child from a truck, Taesoo dies – only to awaken before an ancient Entity that reveals his death was an accident. His final focus on the novel has merged his brutal world with the story’s, creating a twisted reality where he still commands his empire… and where the five men exist as living prey. Given the choice to return or stay, Taesoo chooses to remain – boredom is his enemy, and breaking the unbroken is his new obsession. He will shatter the novel’s saccharine romance, tear apart their devotion to the female lead, and forge their strength into submission. Every man is a challenge to be conquered, a soul to be marked, and a heart to be claimed. Can he bend these powerful men to his will, or will their resistance consume him first?

wanted by the devil's incarnate[BL]: love After A kill.

Dark romance x mature content x slow burn. ****Blurb***** "Look, I have an Escalade, by the way." Fedora's lips folded. He had no idea what to do with that information, but he figured if he just indulged the man's ego, it would end faster. Faster, my foot. Miguel swallowed hard, his voice dropping to a low, predatory whisper as he leaned in. "All my offers, and any other thing you can wish for... I will get it done." He beat his chest softly, his eyes darkening. "If you can just follow me outside. To the back of my comfy Escalade. It's been a long time since I had a bitch served... in my car." He finished the sentence and swiped his tongue across his lips, biting them with a raw, sexual hunger. He waited for the final reply, already getting high on the thought of cupping that tiny waist with one hand and burying himself in that Chanel-scented skin until the boy pleaded his name in parables. Fedora went stoic. He was completely frozen, the world stopping as the shock and bewilderment hit him like a physical blow. He scoffed in disbelief, his jaw practically hitting the floor. 'Back of the Escalade. Bitches served in a car'. "Me! Fedora!! Bitch!!! Served in the back of a car!!! Unto delicacy!!!! Gosh!!!!!" Fedora muttered, the words replaying in his head like a record skip. A dry, hysterical laugh escaped his lips. Oh, this was the height of it. He wasn't going to stand there and let another man disrespect him. Never. Miguel took another step closer, his head hovering over Fedora's, dominant and sure. The boy hadn't said a word; he was definitely giving in, Miguel thought. He leaned in further, waiting for the "yes" but what came next?! It was, by far, the least expected thing any living human being would have the guts to do to him. Behold, it was no other than a hot, non-withheld, redirective, and resounding SLAP!!!! †††††††† **************** Fedora loved him. Miguel loved him too obsessively. Possessively. To the point where devotion blurred into control. Miguel wanted to be involved in everything that touched Fedora’s life, and he proved, time and again, that he would go against his own will, spill blood, even die if it meant keeping Fedora spoiled, protected, and tethered to him. On the surface, Miguel was everything anyone could dream of. Until Fedora fell so deeply in love that he hit rock bottom and realised the darkness there was too suffocating for both his aesthetic and his sanity. He thought he knew Miguel. He was catastrophically wrong. Fedora had been blind to the beast he let into his heart. The truth comes apart slowly, cruelly: Miguel is the reason Fedora has no family. The reason is that there is no life for him beyond Miguel’s shadow. And worst of all, Fedora had chosen him anyway, his memories erased not by force, but by misplaced devotion. “Pick a gun and empty it into his brain.” The solution sounds simple. It isn’t. Fedora doesn’t know what’s real anymore. He can’t tell if what he shared with Miguel, the man he once humiliated in a bar, the man who later became his lover, was genuine love or a carefully staged performance fueled by manipulation, guilt, and obsession. The cruel irony? Miguel is wrapped around Fedora’s fingers, tight as a rosary around a nun’s hand. And yet, Fedora is still the one trapped. Now he must decide. Will he avenge his family? Will love survive the truth? And if Miguel dies, will it be swift… or slow enough to satisfy the damage left behind? This isn’t a romance. It’s a beautifully brutal descent into love, control, and consequence. Enter at your own risk. ********* . warning!!! Some statements, scenes, and incidents in this book may not sit well with religious readers. [Everything is fictional and not intended to harm or coerce your mind in any way]

The Study Contract

It all started with that one proposal, a deal-turned-bait pulling him into something dark, yet irresistible and inescapable. ____ Ryan Kane is mixed-race, poor, and worst still, in a university where everything screams "silver and gold". He thinks his scholarship and education are his only way to a future better than his present. But this guy's grades aren't helping matters as he keeps juggling between lectures, attendance, and part-time jobs. The lower his grades get, the closer he is to withdrawing, going back to his deadbeat of a father, and having a life with nothing. Well, he absolutely doesn't want a reality like that, and to avert that, his only option was getting a tutor. Ryan’s desperate enough to ask Adrian Val. On campus and to everyone, Adrian is the perfect, well-behaved, brilliant heir to a top conglomerate family. While in private, he is a possessive, manipulative jerk who does a lot of unimaginable things. When Ryan proposes tutoring to him, Adrian offers that he pay with his body instead. To him, Ryan can't afford his time and knowledge with just his measly bucks. Ryan says yes to the offer, and along the line, he falls heavily for Adrian. But even when Adrian rejects his confession and treats him like a toy way worse than before, Ryan doesn't leave. He wants the tutoring, the intimacy, the sex, his persistent feelings for Adrian, and the tiny hope that Adrian's heart may steer towards him. It gets even messier when Adrian’s friend Liam enters the picture. Liam is calm, kind, and actually cares about Ryan, but he holds back his feelings to keep the peace. Then there is also Chase, a rich troublemaker who openly flirts with Ryan. Trapped in a dirty cycle of sex, love, and heartbreak, everything Ryan had and held dear to him came tumbling gradually. And by the time he realizes the depth of it, it is too late. Too late to even hold onto anything. Only to be caught between three powerful men who all want a piece of him for different reasons. ____ Years later, the campus gates are closed and Ryan has built a life for himself away from the shadows of Westhill. But his new career brings him face to face with the man that once broke him... Graduation was only a temporary escape This story contains #slowburn #toxic #drama #psychological #heavy and detailed smut scenes #red flag top #trauma #obsession

Embers Fanned by Flaws

In the glittering, high-stakes world of K Country, where power and prestige dictate the future of industries, two young CEOs collide in a battle of ideals. Lutte Valdes a baby-faced visionary who built his empire from nothing. Once an orphan shuffled through foster homes, he found hope in a food truck run by a kind stranger. His company, Valance Ventures, pioneers renewable-powered food trucks and professional baking equipment, pushing innovation not for the elite, but for everyday people. Across the table sits Asher Emberborn, twenty-six, heir to the mighty Emberborn Technologies. Cold, stoic, and precise, Asher has piercing peridot eyes that miss nothing. Though privileged and treasured since birth, he shoulders the crushing expectation of upholding his family’s legacy. To him, business is duty, prestige, and control—ideals that leave no room for gambles or sentiment. Their first meeting: Lutte’s proposal for an AI system to optimize solar energy in food trucks is dismantled by Asher as naïve, unprofitable, and beneath the scope of his company. Yet when Lutte argues that true prestige lies in uplifting the many, not the few, Asher finds himself unsettled by the man’s fire. He rejects the proposal, but cannot shake the annoyance—or the intrigue. What begins as a clash of business philosophies soon spills beyond the boardroom. Fate draws them into unexpected encounters—in bookstores, at conventions, on quiet walks through the city—each meeting peeling back another layer of the armor they wear. Lutte discovers the loneliness hidden beneath Asher’s cold composure, while Asher sees in Lutte a warmth forged from pain, a relentless belief in people despite all he has endured. Flaws become bridges: Lutte’s idealism challenges Asher’s cynicism; Asher’s discipline tempers Lutte’s reckless drive. Late-night conversations, accidental confessions, and brushes with danger draw them closer, until rivalry gives way to reluctant trust… and trust deepens into something neither expected. And so their story unfolds... Meeting as rivals, clashed as visionaries, but every unexpected meeting unraveled a flaw—until those cracks became the place where love took root. But, will love truly conquer all?
