TRIGGER WARNING: This story contains dark themes, emotional and physical abuse, trauma, betrayal, humiliation, and mature content. However, it also delivers humor, sharp sarcasm, a doting (and dangerous) mate, and chaotic chemistry between the leads. ★★ Synopsis ★★ They called her wolf-less. A disgrace. A curse. The girl blamed for her brother’s death. The unwanted twin. The shame her pack never stopped punishing. For seventeen years, Isabella endured cruelty from everyone who should have protected her—her Alpha, her pack, even her own blood. Beaten down. Enslaved. Ignored. Yet she never broke. Until the night her first heat dragged her into a forest she was never meant to enter. That night, she met Lucain. A king who had been sleeping for centuries. Cold. Ruthless. Starved. A ruler who rejected fate, bonds, and the Moon Goddess herself. He took her blood to survive. He meant to kill her afterward. Instead, he marked her. A bond never meant to exist. A mate never meant to live. A king never meant to awaken. The mark ignites a secret no one was meant to uncover—one that places Isabella at the center of power, prophecy, and bloodshed. Now the packs want her dead. The Elders want to use her. And enemies far older than wolves are watching. Lucain has spent his existence proving he cannot be owned. No bond. No mate.No weakness. Isabella has spent her life learning how to survive. Forced together by fate and hunted by the world, they face an impossible choice. Bow to destiny and submit to the bond… Or burn down everything that ever tried to control them. Because when fate tightens its grip, the real question isn’t whether the bond can be rejected... It’s what happens when the girl everyone broke becomes the one thing a king cannot afford to lose. •♪♪• Hi, my name is Isabella. Follow me through a journey of survival, self-discovery, vengeance… and a dangerously unexpected love. #StrongFL #EnemiesToLovers #FatedMate #PowerCouple #fromHatefulToDotingHusband #DarkRomance #SlowBurnChaos

The Moon Goddess made a mistake— or maybe this was a curse just like everyone says it is. But I always knew deep down that I was never meant to be theirs. They belonged to her. To my twin sister, Chalice, who was sweet. Perfect. Worshipped by the entire pack… and pure venom behind closed doors. The three brothers— Zevran, Kael, and Caelum— hate me with a fire that burns hotter than the bond tying us together. And I know because I see it in their eyes… I feel it in the way their burning touch lingers a second too long. They despise me. Just like everyone else does. But they want me. And no matter how much I try to stay away, the mate bond keeps dragging me back into their world of heat, power, hatred and danger. Maybe, I should leave… I know. But fate plays a cruel game. And as truths unravel and secrets come to light, the triplets— the ones who once despised me— now see me for who I am. Now, they want me— unabashedly. But by the time they realize this, it is a little too late. I’ve been broken by them a little too much. And I am done being anyone’s pawn. ~*~ “We want you, Leilani… we always have. Always would. Please take this as our way of saying sorry. For everything, for not believing you… for letting our judgements be clouded by…” Caelum said softly, his voice trailing off, his breath warm and ticklish against my fingers that he brought up to his lips as his other hand found the warm spot between my thighs. My eyes snagged on his full lips— pink and inviting; But they’d been kissed by another. And I don’t do leftovers. I sighed exasperatedly, shaking my head to rid myself of this pitiful sight and clenching my legs together to force his hands out. He didn’t budge. “No.” I said sharply, my voice coming out stronger than I expected especially with their bodies pressed against mine, and their lips creating sparks across my body. “I’m done. Go back to Chalice… she suits you more than I ever did.” Kael’s voice vibrated through my body as he pressed himself flush against me. His brothers Caelum and Zevran leaned in too, their lips on the shell of my ears, one’s fingers grazing over my taut nipple. “I’ll burn the world, Leilani,” he growled, his voice deep. Threatening. “I’ll burn the entire world, if that’s what it takes to win you back.” “Then I'd like to see you after the world’s been successfully burnt down. Maybe then we’ll have this conversation.” I answered, and with that, I pushed their hands away and leapt off the cupboard. And as I walked out of the kitchen, I felt their eyes drilling holes into my back, hotter than a thousand lasers all at once. But I didn’t falter. I didn’t turn around. I was the monster they’d made.

Once upon a time, Eclipse lived a quiet life—until the Moon Goddess bound her to Malric NorthSteed, Alpha Prince of the North. A man who was Cold, Ruthless and Ambitious beyond mercy. On the night she was rejected as his mate, Malric slaughtered her entire pack… and then crowned another woman his bride. Buried under the burning betrayal, Eclipse dies with her family, but five years later, she is reborn as Arrow—an assassin feared by wicked nobles and criminals alike; a ghost whispered through the underworld. Every life she takes is training that sharpens her resolve toward a single purpose: Kill Malric NorthSteed. Then burn his entire empire to the ground. But Malric is no longer just an Alpha Prince. He is now the Alpha King of the North—untouchable behind towering palace walls and absolute power. So to reach him, Eclipse must do the unthinkable. She enters the grand Bridal Selection, a ruthless competition of fifty women vying to become his next Luna Queen—each bride hiding secrets, ambitions, and bloodstained desires of their own. Disguised, surrounded by spies and trapped among obsessed rivals and lethal politics, Eclipse plays the role of the demure woman seeking Malric’s heart… while plotting to rip it from his chest. Yet as the competition turns deadly, a terrifying truth emerges. In this game of hearts and death, she is far from the only pawn on the board; Her family’s massacre was no simple act of cruelty; The bond she once shared with Malric NorthSteed had been anything but an accident; Not to mention that Malric has been playing this game long before she even drew her bow, Eclipse tows the line of danger while donning on a fake mask before him. Because if Malric discovers who she truly is— If he realizes she is the mate he once rejected— If the embers between them ignite into something dangerously real— Then Eclipse will face a fate far worse than death. For when he catches her, no arrow, no mask, no hatred will save her. Not from his vengeance. Not from his power. Not from the forbidden love that could destroy them both.

His eyes roamed her face, then dropped lower and lingered just a second too long. “Careful, princess. Keep taunting me like that and I’ll start thinking you like our nightly sparring.” “And if I did?” Her voice was soft now. Almost playful. “Would you stop pretending that you don't like it when I challenge you?” He rose from his seat slowly until he stood toe to toe with her. “Tell me something, Circe.” She tilted her chin up. “What?” “If I kissed you right now… Would you slap me, stab me, or kiss me back?” Her breath hitched. “That depends.” “On?” “How good the kiss is.” A pause. Something hummed between them, something neither of them dared name. Ragnar’s gaze dropped to her mouth. “Do you want me to find out?” She smiled, slow and wicked. “Make it worth the risk.” **** She was forced to marry the man who led the attack on her people.

I transmigrated into Douluo Dalu, becoming Qian Xunji just before the infamous Secret Chamber incident. At the very start, I encountered my disciple, Bibi Dong, swearing to elope with Yu Xiaogang. In the original story, the original Qian Xunji forcefully imprisoned Bibi Dong, thus earning the title Secret Chamber Douluo. However, as a transmigrator, I felt nothing but disgust and revulsion toward the selfish, ungrateful traitor that was Bibi Dong. Just as I was about to sentence her to death for her betrayal, the Overturn System activated. As long as I disrupted Douluo Dalu’s original storyline, I could receive all kinds of rewards. This immediately sparked an idea in my mind. The entire plot of Douluo Dalu essentially revolved around the farce between Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong. Rather than following the original trajectory… If I allowed this white-eyed wolf, Bibi Dong, to be with Yu Xiaogang… Wouldn’t that completely overturn the story and grant me immense rewards? Of course, I wouldn’t make things so easy for her. Thanks to the Overturn System’s newbie gift pack… I could let Bibi Dong elope with Yu Xiaogang—but all the resources the Spirit Hall invested in her, the spirit bones she received, and all the secrets she knew about Spirit Hall… had to be abolished and sealed away! ____ Note: This is translated Patreon link: patreon.com/PhantomHand69 Discord link: https://discord.gg/aZjz3Qe9AN Raw: 斗罗：和玉小刚私奔？后悔别求我

Seraphina and Lucien were once months away from completing their sacred mating bond. The final ritual required a ceremonial bite witnessed by the Blood Court. Once completed, their powers would merge, and their lives would be tied eternally. On the eve of the ceremony, Elara delivers a prophecy: “If the Alpha binds his soul to the Silver Flame, one heart shall cease before the century turns.” Seraphina interprets it as a death sentence for Lucien.

Shoved into the backseat of his father's car right after graduation, Riley Hale ended up marching toward a company building with a bagged lunch and a pen. Still in his toga, the fresh graduate never thought he’d land in the office of the continent’s top lizard, err, dragon, as his aide. And that would’ve driven any person wishing for a corporate career to tears. After all, who wouldn’t want to serve the fastest ticket up the corporate ladder: Kael Dravaryn, the infamously elegant, unhinged, and extremely overpowered Dragon Lord of the continent? Well, that would be Riley. The same Riley who didn’t expect to spend his days dodging fireballs, dressing his boss in robes more complicated than dark magic, and serving as a literal target during morning sparring. Now trapped in a job he never truly agreed to, the hardworking aide decided to hold out until it was time for his glorious resignation. But leaving a dragon’s clutches could never be easy, especially one with elemental mastery and a finger worth a private army. Yet, as Riley, who longs to quit, attempts to navigate ancient politics, wyvern threats, and other accidents (many of which are definitely not his fault), he might just hallucinate himself into seeing something beneath his boss’s arrogance and molten glares. Maybe he’d actually care if Riley got turned to ash.

Lucas had loving parents, childhood friends, and innocent ambitions to one day become a powerful Cultivator define his life. In other words, he was an ordinary boy destined to not leave much of a mark on the world; that is, until a cross-universe accident befalls him on his 9th birthday. Struck by the dying Soul of a man from 28th century Earth, Lucas should have died, but fate apparently had other plans for him. After he awakens, Lucas discovers he possesses memories of a world where science dominates and cultivation is nothing more than fantasy. Rather than dismissing these new memories which seem incompatible with his lived reality, Lucas decides to take advantage of them, aiming to blend the best of both worlds to build a better life for both himself and his loved ones. Unfortunately, this new knowledge is vague, shrouded in a fog that can only be lifted by advancing his strength; hardly an easy task for a countryside boy living on the outskirts of civilization. Even if he does gain access to this knowledge, Lucas still has to find a way to transform it into reality, a slow an arduous process that will require enormous amounts of time, resources, and help from those around him. Lucas doesn’t falter in the face of these challenges and is determined to realize his dreams of establishing a technologically advanced cultivation civilization, but the more progress he makes, and the higher he rises up, the more dangers he encounters, and the more covetous eyes set their sights on what he is trying to build. Will Lucas succeed in changing his destiny, and the destiny of his world, or will destiny consign him to the forgotten annals of history? Only time will tell… ~~~~~~~~ Author notes: First book!

In the sky-splintered world of Aetherion, magic is law, love is leverage, and power glitters like a blade under moonlight. Caelum Vale, a silver-haired prodigy born with forbidden Starfire Arcana, enrolls in the legendary floating academy Celestara Spire with a dream that sounds ridiculous to some and terrifying to others: to become Harem King. Not a collector of hearts, but a sovereign of chosen alliances. In a world where mages rise and fall through conquest, Caelum intends to rule through devotion freely given. His arrival is less a ripple and more a meteor. A noble fire mage who refuses to kneel. An ice sorceress who studies him like a puzzle she intends to solve. A spirit-bound forest guardian with a fox familiar and a quietly possessive streak. A storm knight who respects strength and tests his without mercy. Each challenges him. Each loses. None are diminished. As Caelum climbs the academy ranks, rivals attempt to expose his ambition as arrogance. Political factions see his growing circle as a threat. Whispers spread across enchanted corridors: “He is building a constellation.” But becoming Harem King is not about winning affection. It is about balance. Rivalries flare. Emotions ignite hotter than spellfire. If jealousy fractures his circle, his dream shatters. When an ancient Void Empress rises, declaring love a weakness that dilutes power, Caelum must prove the opposite. His final gambit is not a solo display of brilliance but a synchronized storm of magic and trust, a radiant fusion called Crown of Constellations. In Aetherion, kings conquer alone. Caelum intends to reign together. Cue the wind sweeping across floating towers, petals spiraling through starlight, and a future throne waiting not for one ruler, but for a constellation

In the world of cultivation, where cultivating means defying heaven, follow the story of a queen who was betrayed by her husband and killed, only to be reborn to her past with the memories of the future and a system which, if she wants to live, requires her to bind her soul with her soulmate. Drawn together by the resonance of the system rather than force, two wounded souls begin to influence one another. Through cultivation, battle, and shared pain, they grow closer too sometimes by choice, sometimes by consequence. As she quietly rewrites the future and prepares her revenge, the bond deepens, revealing truths neither of them can escape. The closer they become, the more the system responds, blurring the line between independence and unity. I will be uploading one chapter until I am able to see a contract, but if I end up not seeing one, I will just continue the chapters. I don’t really know. Also, the story will start very slowly because of the pacing and character introductions, to really understand the story and how everything will fit together for the arcs. So this first arc will be very slow in pacing so bear with me and let me cook. You will enjoy the first arc. Note: I will also give a brief introduction to my main characters after I have introduced them in the story.

During the Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty, on the western frontier lay the Bone Road—a desolate trail where bones of travelers bleached white under the sun, a testament to the desert’s mercilessness. A sudden black sandstorm swallowed fifteen-year-old Ma Shiliu, tossing him into the legendary oasis whispered about by caravans: a paradise of emerald springs and date palms, hidden deep within the deathly dunes. There, he met Sei La—a girl with golden hair and sapphire eyes, as ethereal as the oasis itself. She traded him a deep-blue gemstone for his mother’s tortoiseshell hairpin, a trinket she said held the secret to unlocking the earth’s hidden heart. Three years later, Ma Shiliu returned to the desert, armed with all his savings and the fire of youth. He braved sandstorms that swallowed the sky, traversed valleys where the wind howled like ghosts, and crossed salt flats that burned under the sun—all to find that oasis, that girl, and the "Eye of the Sea," the gemstone he believed could reveal the desert’s deepest secrets. His journey became a quest that spanned the Silk Road and delved into subterranean realms: a tale of love pure enough to glow, of loyalty that defied the desert’s cruelty, and of a boy’s unwavering belief in the magic of the unknown. For Ma Shiliu, the Bone Road was no longer a path of death, but a road to redemption—one paved with memories of Sei La’s smile, the glint of the blue gemstone, and the hope that some legends were worth chasing, even if it meant losing himself to the desert.

"If I can just stay under the radar, I might survive the final chapter." Kim Jowoon woke up in a novel world as the illegitimate fourth son of a marquis, Julian Von Astrea, and it looked like every single character hated him. It was a world where everyone looked like a protagonist—shining eyes, tragic backstories, destiny practically dripping off them. Everyone except him. He didn't even get a script. Then the Affection System popped up and crushed his hopes in one clean line of text: every so-called “hero” in the capital had a solid 0% interest in his continued existence. Naturally, Julian did the most reasonable thing possible—he ran. Straight into the safest job he could think of: tutoring the young son of the Empire's most reclusive (and famously cold) Duke. The plan was foolproof. Win over the kid, stay invisible, collect a fat paycheck, and live long enough to die of old age instead of plot relevance. It didn't go smoothly at first. The child barely spoke, the Duke barely appeared, and Julian briefly wondered if he'd chosen the wrong kind of death. But somehow… it worked. The Duke's son slowly warmed up to him. Lessons became warm conversations, and silence turned into trust. And even stranger, the Duke's affection level didn't just rise—it skyrocketed into something Julian absolutely had not planned for. For the first time since transmigrating, he felt safe. Then the Empire started falling apart. A masked criminal began tearing through the capital, and Julian started waking up with missing memories and an unsettling sense of déjà vu. No wounds. No explanations. Just the feeling that something had happened—and that he was better off not remembering it. He had thought he was the one being hunted. But the higher the Duke's affection climbed, the more frequent the blackouts became, and the more a terrifying possibility took shape. He came here to survive the story. Now, he was starting to suspect the Duke wasn't protecting him from the plot at all… He was protecting the plot from him.

On the edge of their final school summer, four friends believe this season will be no different from the ones before—long afternoons, shared laughter, and promises that feel endless. Aoi Kanzaki quietly observes everything, writing down moments he’s afraid to forget. Mio Takahara holds the group together with warmth and smiles, even as she senses something slipping away. Ren Ishida laughs through his fear of the future, while Yuna Morikawa’s restless energy hides a truth she’s been carrying alone. As cicadas cry and festivals light up the nights, unspoken feelings begin to surface. Small changes—missed messages, lingering looks, half-finished sentences—turn ordinary days into memories too precious to ignore. When a secret finally comes to light, the friends are forced to face what they’ve been avoiding: that this summer may be the last one they’ll spend together as they are now. Summer Times Are Coming is a gentle, bittersweet story about friendship, first love, and the quiet heartbreak of growing up—about a summer that doesn’t end with goodbyes, but with the realization that time never waits, even for those who wish it would.
