Return of Black Lotus system:Taming Cheating Male Leads

WARNING: ITS A 18+ BOOK Heena stretched on the warm sand, sipping coconut water. Finally, peace. No scheming heroines, no brooding male leads—just her and the ocean. “HEENA! MOTHER! I FOUND YOU!” Her eye twitched. Not now. Floating above the beach was a golden lion with sparkling wings. “System 547,” she said, gritting her teeth. “I’m on vacation.” “But the worlds are collapsing! Male leads are going crazy! Villainesses are dying! White lotus heroines are ruining everything!” “Not my problem.” “You’re the Black Lotus! Only you can fix this!” “Exactly why I deserve a vacation.” “No rules! Slap them, seduce them, team up with the villainess—anything!” Heena sipped her coconut. “If I say yes, triple points, rare items from every world, and six months vacation after.” “Done! Anything!” the lion shouted, tail wagging. Heena stood, brushing sand off. “Fine. Show me these broken male leads.” Her smirk was dangerous. . . . The portal threw Heena onto cold marble floors. Her head spun as чуж memories flooded in. Empress Celeste Ravencourt. Five husbands. A dying empire. “Great,” Heena muttered. “I’m the villain.” A tiny golden lion appeared beside her. “Welcome to World 12! You’re married to five powerful men who all hate you. They’re meeting tonight to poison you and crown the heroine instead.” “Let me guess,” Heena sighed. “White lotus?” “Lady Seraphina. Sweet, kind, system-backed. They’re all in love with her.” Heena rubbed her temples. The body was weak, starved, exhausted. No wonder Celeste died so easily. “Fine,” she said, pulling off the heavy jewelry. “That empress is dead. I’m not.” She chose a simple dark dress, tied her hair up, and met her reflection. The sadness vanished. Confidence took its place. At dinner, five men waited—cold, powerful, deadly handsome. Warriors, priests, generals, spies. Every one of them wanted her gone. Wine was poured into her glass. Poisoned. Obvious. They watched her closely. Heena lifted the glass, smiling lightly. “To new beginnings.” She drank it all. The silence cracked. Nothing happened. Their faces changed—shock, fear, disbelief. Heena leaned back, calm and smiling. “Now,” she said softly, “which one of you thought killing me would be that easy?” AUTHORS NOTE: Thank you so much for all the support!

Sold to the DEVIL

SOLD TO THE DEVIL Daniella Montenegro has spent her entire life paying for sins that were never hers. Her mother’s death. Her father’s failures. Her brother’s reckless choices. At twenty, she dances under neon lights each night just to keep food on the table for a family that has never protected her in return. When the man she was meant to marry disappears on their wedding day, Daniella believes humiliation is the worst fate waiting for her. She is wrong. By nightfall, her father’s gambling debts come due, and desperate men make desperate bargains. To settle what he owes, he offers the only thing he has left of value. His daughter. Blindfolded and delivered like payment, Daniella is taken to the secluded estate of Santiago Torres Mendoza, a man whispered about in business circles and feared everywhere else. Powerful, controlled, and mercilessly private, Santiago is not a man who explains his decisions, only enforces them. Daniella arrives with nothing: no freedom, no allies, and no way to escape. And she carries a secret of her own. Two months pregnant with a child whose father she cannot name, she is forced to sign a contract that claims her body, her future, and her unborn child. Survival becomes her only goal as she is pulled into Santiago’s dangerous world of luxury negotiations, shadowed alliances, and corruption powerful enough to erase lives without consequence. But everything changes the moment Santiago truly looks at her. Because Daniella Montenegro has her mother’s face, the face of the woman he lost twenty-three years ago. A woman whose disappearance left wounds that time never healed and secrets buried deep enough to destroy empires. What begins as a transaction becomes a fragile and dangerous alliance. As enemies close in and the truth about Daniella’s past begins to surface, Santiago finds himself protecting the one person he was never meant to care about, while Daniella discovers that the most terrifying prison is not the contract that binds her, but the man whose darkness may be the only thing keeping her alive. In a world ruled by power, loyalty, and betrayal, the greatest threat is not the devil who bought her… But the woman who refuses to belong to anyone.

GAME OF THRONES: AEGON THE AVENGER

Lightweight system) (Slow-heating) Aegon travels to the world of A Song of Ice and Fire and becomes Aegon Targaryen, who shares the same name. Good news: He possesses the bloodline of the Valyrian Dragon King and can ride dragons. Bad news: I didn't transmigrate into Aegon the Conqueror who conquered the Seven Kingdoms, nor into any of the Targaryen kings in history, but into "Little Aegon"—yes, the one who got smashed against a wall by the Mountain and had his head split open. To make matters worse, the Targaryen dynasty had already fallen, and a usurper had ascended the throne in King's Landing. He could only drag his broken body and rely on the system to stay alive as he fled to the Narrow Sea. Aegon thought he was getting a tragic and heartbreaking script, but what happened? Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in at the Valyrian Ruins and received 1 chance to win a prize. Ding! Congratulations, host, you have drawn the Golden Legendary item and obtained King Ghidorah (juvenile form). Aegon stared in astonishment at the grotesque three-headed beast on the system screen: "Wait... is this art style right?!" When the shadow of a three-headed dragon, obscuring the sky, swept across King's Landing, when the chaotic Seven Kingdoms were reunited under the dragon's wings, and when usurpers and traitors were reduced to ashes in the flames, the maesters who wrote the Targaryen Chronicles bestowed upon him the title "Aegon the Avenger" after Aegon the Conqueror.

The Forgotten Son of Ice

Eiren, an eighteen-year-old young man, has lived for a year with Roderic and Liana’s family, who adopted him after finding him on the brink of death—scarred, memoryless, and carrying wounds no one could explain. To them, he is another son; to the village, a reserved boy hiding an unknown past. But the fragments that surface in his dreams tell a different story: muffled screams beneath the rain, a desperate hand holding him before letting him fall, snow-laden forests filled with enemies, steel clashing against steel, and a mission shattered by betrayal. In that forgotten past, Eiren had already wielded weapons and unleashed magic, burdened by a destiny that will haunt him no matter how much he tries to deny it. His recent magical awakening—a power of ice born in a moment of desperation—not only reveals that his former life may have been far different, but also draws dangerous eyes. Adventurers, nobles, and hidden enemies will soon turn their gaze upon him. Now, torn between the warm love of his new family and the shadows of what he once was, Eiren must face the question that torments him: Can a young man without memories forge a future of his own, or will the echo of his past life drag him back into the fate he tried to escape? *** Eiren, un joven de dieciocho años, vive desde hace un año con la familia de Roderic y Liana, quienes lo adoptaron tras hallarlo al borde de la muerte, sin recuerdos y marcado por cicatrices imposibles de explicar. Para ellos, es un hijo más; para el pueblo, un muchacho reservado que oculta un pasado desconocido. Pero los fragmentos que emergen en sus sueños cuentan otra historia: gritos ahogados bajo la lluvia, una mano desesperada que lo sujetaba antes de dejarlo caer, bosques nevados repletos de enemigos, acero chocando contra acero, y una misión rota por la traición. En ese pasado olvidado, Eiren ya había blandido armas y desatado magia, cargando con un destino que lo perseguirá aunque intente negarlo. Su reciente despertar mágico —un poder de hielo que surgió en un momento de desesperación— no solo revela que su vida anterior pudo haber sido muy distinta, sino que también atrae miradas peligrosas. Aventureros, nobles y enemigos ocultos pronto pondrán sus ojos sobre él. Ahora, dividido entre el amor cálido de su nueva familia y las sombras de lo que alguna vez fue, Eiren deberá enfrentar la pregunta que lo atormenta: ¿puede un joven sin memoria forjar un futuro propio, o el eco de su vida pasada lo arrastrará hacia el destino del que intentó escapar?
