betrayed

"Do you know where you are?" "Who cares which hell I fall into!" Dakota responded coldly. "Do you know what I do with my enemies?" "You kill them and drink their blood!" Dakota never imagined attending her sister's engagement party would turn her life upside down. The man she loved twice, the mate she gave everything to, the father of the twins she nearly died birthing, is marrying her sister. Raising their son. Living the life he promised her. With her memories flooding back in devastating waves, Dakota does the only thing she can: she runs. Straight into enemy territory. Into the hands of Alpha Kade, the rival her pack has feared for years. He should kill her. Use her as leverage. Start a war. Instead, he offers her refuge. But when her mate comes demanding her return, claiming the bond can't be broken, Dakota faces an impossible choice: The man who destroyed her twice, or the enemy who's offering her a chance to destroy him back. Some loves are forbidden. Some are fatal. And some enemies... become everything.

Never let the man you love make the ultimate sacrifice. I learned that lesson when mine took the place of a monster to save the world. My husband, James, is a 1600-year-old vampire, my soulmate, and the father of my newborn daughter. Now he’s a prisoner in the Underworld, bound to a fate worse than death. To get him back, I must make a deal with the enigmatic God of the Underworld—an alliance that demands a strategic marriage. My only path into Hell is offered by a chaotic demon I can’t possibly trust, and our true enemy wants my divine blood to seize the thrones of Heaven and Hell. The only thing worse than losing my husband to the darkness? Becoming its queen to get him back.

Follow his descent into the shadows, and witness whether he can reclaim himself… or if the cost of love will consume him before he ever reaches his happy ending.

Liora is a hybrid who never fit the rules. Born without protection, rejected by her mate, and raised to obey, she survives by pretending submission in a world ruled by dominance. Alpha commands don’t work on her, but she keeps that secret. Power attracts attention. Attention gets you erased. When rejection forces her to flee, Liora discovers a hidden world where hybrids are catalogued, gods influence from the shadows, and laws exist to control what shouldn’t exist. But Liora doesn’t belong to any category. As dormant power awakens and divine forces take interest, councils move to contain her and gods begin to disagree over what she is. Refusing to kneel to fate, law, or worship, Liora makes a choice no one expects. She doesn’t claim a throne. She claims herself. And the world shifts to accommodate her existence.

“Life is a banquet, and I was the only one on the menu.” Kaizen’s world didn’t end with a bang. It ended with the sound of a rope tightening. After uncovering his mother’s affair with his own school bully—a betrayal that drove his father to suicide—Kaizen was left with nothing but mockery, poverty, and a hollow smile. Faith, family, dignity… all devoured long before his death. Then came the so-called Mercy of the Gods. Summoned alongside his classmates to another world by the Goddess Ishtar to stop a world-ending calamity, Kaizen is granted a “Holy Gift” like the others. While heroes receive legendary weapons and divine magic, Kaizen is humiliated once again with the lowest-ranked skill of all: [Gluttony]—a useless hunger in a land of monsters. A curse. A joke. A perfect sacrifice. That is what everyone believes. What neither the heroes nor the Goddess herself realizes is that Kaizen’s hunger is not for food. It is an absence—something that should not exist. A void that does not simply kill, but erases. In a world that expects him to die quietly, Kaizen begins to rise. Each step forward strips something away—from monsters, from heroes… and eventually from the Gods themselves. Ishtar wanted a Hero. Instead, she unleashed something far worse. A mistake that is learning how to eat.

At eighteen, Riele Anderson has everything people dream of—fame, beauty, and a name the world recognizes. But behind the flashing cameras and perfect smiles is a girl who lost her parents too young and grew up learning how to survive, not how to live. Tired of being seen but never known, Riele does something reckless and brave—she hides. At her new school in Los Angeles, she becomes Ryerson Anderson, a quiet boy with no spotlight and no past. For the first time, she tastes normalcy: real friendships, laughter without cameras, and a boy named Noah Rivers who makes her feel safe in ways she never expected. But Noah has a crush on the girl Riele pretends not to be, and every moment with him blurs the line between truth and betrayal. While Riele hides her identity, her cousin Vera lives loudly—flashy, confident, and fearless. When an online romance follows Vera into real life, it brings danger, humiliation, and secrets she never saw coming. What starts as a teenage mistake slowly unravels something far darker. As lies pile up, buried truths resurface—about adoption, wealth, and a powerful family whose past refuses to stay hidden. Every character is tied together by secrets they didn’t choose and names they never fully owned. When identities are exposed and the truth finally comes knocking, Riele must decide who she is willing to lose—and who she is brave enough to become. Because some names protect you. And others destroy everything you’re trying to save.

Born into one of the most prestigious noble families of the Eldros Empire, Kael Ashborne should have been a prodigy. Instead, he was branded a defect. Physically weak, plagued by a mysterious illness, and unable to wield power like his gifted siblings, Kael grows up neglected—cast aside by his family, ignored by his teachers, and bullied within the academy. In a world where strength defines worth, weakness is unforgivable. Yet what no one knows is that Kael’s body is not failing him by chance. It is failing because his soul is too strong. On the brink of death at fifteen, Kael’s sealed memories awaken—alongside a damaged system created by his own soul in a previous life. Not a gift from the gods. Not a blessing of fate. But a desperate mechanism born solely to keep him alive. With a body that threatens to collapse under his growing soul and a system that enforces cruel limits, Kael must walk a path slower and more dangerous than any other. Each step forward risks destruction. Each mistake could be fatal. Rejected by blood. Surrounded by enemies. Supported by only a single loyal maid. This is not the rise of a chosen hero.

"Never write a novel while your heart is bleeding." That was the most expensive lesson Emma ever had to learn. A month after catching her boyfriend of three years in the arms of another woman, Emma spiraled. In a caffeine fueled frenzy, she spent three sleepless nights crafting a venomous manuscript. She created Camila a wicked, manipulative, and unfaithful wife who took pleasure in tormenting her own husband, Elliot. Emma intentionally made Elliot suffer, weaving him into the ultimate 'Green Flag' husband just so she could crush his loyalty under Camila’s heels. In her state of heartbreak, she loathed the very concept of "faithfulness." That night, clutching the tattered remains of her ex-boyfriend's photos, Emma whispered a desperate plea to the silent void, "God, if there is still a good man left in this world and if I could meet just one person who would love me sincerely, I swear I would give him my entire world." Emma fell asleep with tear-stained cheeks, praying for a miracle. But when she opened her eyes, the miracle arrived in the most twisted way possible. She wasn't in her cramped bedroom. Instead, she was standing in a lavish, unfamiliar restroom, suffocated by the pungent scent of expensive perfume. Emma froze as she stared at the reflection in the mirror.

This was Camila the villainess she had birthed from her own malice just hours ago. Horror dawned on her, Emma had been pulled into her own twisted narrative, inhabiting the body of the most hated woman in her book. But why did fate send her here? Was this a punishment for trying to destroy Elliot’s life on paper, or was the universe simply calling her bluff and demanding she fulfill the vow she had just made?
