The Alpha Chose My Maid, So I Married The Rogue King

“My husband thought I was his doormat Luna until I became his ruin.” … I was the Goldbane heiress. Gideon Vexwood was the lowborn wolf I married for love. I thought we were building a kingdom; I didn’t realize he was building my coffin. In one night, my world shattered. A tragic accident claimed my father’s life and stole my unborn child, leaving my body permanently broken. With the Pack Council threatening to strip my title unless I produce an heir, I was forced into a desperate gamble. I trusted my husband. I trusted my loyal maid. Together, we struck a secret surrogate deal to save the Goldbane’s right to the Alpha seat. I thought it was our salvation. I didn't know it was a trap. While I drowned in grief, Gideon and his mistress were celebrating my downfall, manipulating the very contracts meant to save me to turn me into a servant in my own home. They called it strategy. I called it war. For seven years, I played the victim. I endured their cruelty, letting them think they’d won while I forged a secret alliance with the only man they truly fear: Jarek Ashthorne. The infamous Rogue King. A man who rules the underworld with an iron fist and holds a debt to my father that he has never forgotten. He was supposed to be my weapon of revenge. I didn't expect him to be my salvation. Now, as the secrets of that fatal night emerge, the long game is finally over. They took my child. They stole my life. Now, I’m coming for their crowns. ____ Jarek hauled me forward until my chest collided with the rigid planes of his torso. “You have no idea, Elowen. Everything about you... every tear you shed for a man who doesn't deserve you… It’s all my business.” I shivered, but I clamped down on the sensation instantly. “Get your hands off me! I know what you’re doing. I’ve heard the stories, Jarek. Stay away from my marriage, stay away from my pack. And you better stay away from my life!” Yet, he pressed his face into the crook of my neck, inhaling deeply. “Is that what you call it, Elowen? I call it a wake-up call. But if you’d rather go back to your ‘Alpha’ and pretend that the walls aren’t closing in, be my guest.”

On the fourth day of May, Kevin was murdered in his apartment. He has no enemies and no friends.

Reincarnated in a novel: I am the villain!

[System Alert: The Villain has logged in…] [Detection: The Script has been corrupted.] The world of The Hero Returns ended in ash. The Hero failed, the Gods abandoned their creation, and the Demon King erased humanity. Lin Ye, a reader obsessed with the novel, raged at the tragic ending. He cursed the author, the gods, and specifically Damien Voss, the cowardly mid-boss villain whose incompetence doomed them all. Then, he opened his eyes. He was no longer Lin Ye. He was a newborn infant, staring up at a lavish ceiling. He was Damien Voss! The same Damien destined to be framed as a traitor. The same Damien who would watch his family be executed. The same Damien meant to become the "King of Ten Thousand Monsters", only to serve as a stepping stone for the Hero. [Destiny System Activated] [Current Status: Cannon Fodder] [Objective: Rewrite Fate.] Armed with encyclopedic knowledge of the future and a System that rewards defiance, Damien refuses to follow the script. Does the plot say he dies early? He edits the event. Are his skills F-Rank trash? He rewrites the code. Do the Heroes try to stop him? He enslaves them using the forbidden Contract Gem of the Voss Bloodline. However, changing the story comes with a price. Grafting new abilities shreds the soul, and altering destiny draws the gaze of the Void Demon Gods. But Damien doesn’t care. He will save his doomed family. He will command beasts, monsters, and demons. He will tear apart the script written for him. He will walk his own path, even if the world opposes him! ******** every 100 Power Stones = 1 Extra Chapter! Every 150 Golden Tickets = 2 Extra Chapters! A Castle = 2 extra chapter! A Spacecraft = 5 extra chapters! A Gachapon = 7 extra chapters! ................................................ discord server: https://discord.gg/5XSAhZc9VS

Shadows of Dominion: The Villain's Rebirth

In his past life, Victor VonHoff was just another reader obsessed with the dark fantasy novel Shadows of Dominion—until a freak accident fused that world with his reality. Now reborn as the story's doomed villain, an 18-year-old duke's heir with silver hair, a scarred cheek, and the rare VonHoff shadow affinity, Victor awakens with perfect foreknowledge of every plot twist, betrayal, and conquest. But this time, the villain refuses to die at the hands of the destined hero. Armed with mind-bending shadow suggestions that turn doubt into craving and loyalty into desperate surrender, Victor enrolls in the elite Imperial Military Academy. There, he begins rewriting fate: claiming the women meant for the protagonist, bending minds and bodies to his will, and building a private empire of devotion in his luxurious off-campus villa. Starting with his utterly loyal silver-haired maid Agnes—bound, blindfolded, dripping with need—Victor's dominance knows no limits. Explicit, unapologetic possession unfolds in every shadowed corner: teasing nectar-slick fingers deep in obedient throats, relentless claiming in moving carriages, rope-bound ecstasy that leaves subs trembling and marked as his. As the academy's sorting ceremony ends and classes begin, Victor maps weaknesses, forges alliances in House Shadow, and targets the heroines who should have belonged to the "chosen one." The hero Aiden approaches, oblivious—yet every step draws him closer to realizing the shadows have a new master. This is no redemption arc. This is conquest. Domination. A villain's harem forged in darkness and desire. ********** Patrons get the real power: 5 chapters early on the heavy-hitters: Reborn Sovereign: The Perverted King's Harem Empire Reborn Business Emperor: Forbidden Harem & Pureblood Dynasty Rise Shadows of Dominion: The Villain's Rebirth 2 chapters early on the dark side: Hero’s Slave Harem: Labyrinth of Blood and Flame Zombie Apocalypse Harem: Necromancer's Rise Exclusive NSFW character refs — steamy poses, outfits & scenes you won’t find anywhere else Your support = faster drops, hotter girls, bigger conquests.

Cultivation: I Signed in with the Talent of an Immortal at the Start

[Cultivation] + [Cautious/Steady Development] + [Keywords] + [Longevity] + [Sign-In] + [Fast-Paced] (New book launch! I am not the original author of this book, just translating. The original author is Ai Chi Gan Shao Hong Yu De Lou Ying) Han Xuanji transmigrated to a cultivation world and discovered that everyone in the cultivation realm is extremely competitive. For someone like him with no talent, no resources, and no background cultivation is incredibly difficult. Fortunately, he activated the Sign-In System. As long as he signs in at places filled with Dao resonance, he can receive all kinds of rewards. Signing in in front of the Patriarch’s statue, he obtained the keyword: [Talent of an Immortal]. [Talent of an Immortal]: A term used in the cultivation world to refer to those with top-tier talent. You possess immortal spiritual roots far superior to heavenly spiritual roots. You have full attribute compatibility and are suited to practice any cultivation method. Signing in at the Dao Transmission Stele, he obtained the keyword: [Extraordinary Comprehension]. Signing in at the Pill Refining Hall, he obtained a bottle of supreme-grade pills. Signing in at the Sect’s Treasury, he received a chest of supreme-grade spirit stones. While others bitterly cultivate and clash with demonic cultivators, Han Xuanji slacks off and checks in daily within the sect. All kinds of spiritual pills, divine weapons, and peerless techniques are at his fingertips. In short, Han Xuanji just lies low within the sect. As for going out to explore and adventure? Only fools would do that! P.S.: This is a "cautious cultivation" novel. The protagonist focuses on development and doesn’t act arrogant or slap faces.
