My Dying Wolf: Too Late to Love
When my wolf Amy first began slipping into intermittent slumber, Alpha Ethan's first love, Sophie, returned to the Blackridge Pack, fresh from her witch training. She destroyed the Healing Circle I'd prepared for warriors with damaged wolf spirits. Then she publicly tore apart the Moon Goddess ceremonial robe my mother left me. Clutching the shredded robe, I knelt outside the master bedroom and cried all night. I was Ethan's chosen mate. He had sworn before the Moon Goddess to complete the Bonding Ceremony with me, to make me his sole Luna. But now, to host a welcome ceremony for Sophie, he'd canceled our scheduled Bonding Ceremony. He even ordered me to kneel outside the master bedroom, forced to listen to him and Sophie's passionate night together. The next morning, he opened the door and reached for my face. I flinched away. He smirked. "What? Are you angry now?" I didn't tell him that I'd been cursed saving the pack's children. My wolf, Amy, was dying......
Replaced Bride: I Chose a New Groom at the Altar
The day we went to pick up the engagement ring, my fiancé told the clerk to return the three-carat stone I'd been waiting six months for. I spun around. "What are you doing? The wedding is tomorrow." Derek picked up a plain silver band worth a few dollars from the counter and held it out to me. "We'll use this one tomorrow. I'm returning the diamond." I stared at him. "Our families are joining in marriage, and you want me to wear a ring that costs a few dollars? Derek, what the hell is this?" Derek frowned, all righteous indignation. "That student I've been sponsoring is coming to the ceremony tomorrow. She has a real chip on her shoulder about wealth—hates anything that looks extravagant." "If she sees a diamond that big, she'll think we're flaunting our money. It'll make her uncomfortable." "Marriage is just a formality. If you really loved me, you'd wear a soda tab and be happy about it. Can you stop being so materialistic?" I froze. All I saw in his eyes was protectiveness—
My Fiancé Forgot Me But Married My Stepsister
Three months after our engagement, Ethan lost his memory. He remembered everyone except me. After seven years of loving each other, I thought that even if he forgot, we could simply fall in love all over again. Memories might be gone, but the body and muscle memory don't lie. Until the day he wrapped his arm around my pregnant stepsister and said he was going to marry her. Fine then, Ethan. I don't want you anymore, either.
He Left Before I Learned to Love Him
I was the pampered real-estate heiress with stars in my eyes, and he was the poor lawyer who loved me more than his own life. I took his love for granted, squandered his devotion, and in the end, I was the one who pushed him away. When he became a top attorney and coldly handed me divorce papers, I thought it was just another one of our games. I was wrong. I chased him, waited for him, only to end up signing my own name in despair. It wasn't until much later that I finally learned the real reason he left. With a voice steeped in pain, he whispered in my ear, "I just couldn't stand watching you love me less and less with each passing day."
Say You Love Me
With his father running cover, Damien Hartwell set out to tear Saraca away from Leo Hartwell. Step one: pay someone to rig Zane Channing's car. At the same time, Elk Yves had a scheme of his own—one that required getting close to Leo. But when the two plots collided, it was Zane who took the hit. A brutal crash. A coma. And no one saw it coming. Elk wormed his way into Leo's life as his executive assistant. Leo didn't buy it for a second. A stranger with no history, showing up out of nowhere? Had to be a mole—sent by his father. What followed was a ridiculous tug-of-war: Leo testing him, Elk dodging every trap, and neither willing to back down. The thing was, Elk *needed* Leo's trust. Not for Leo's sake—but for his own. He had a score to settle. So he made himself indispensable. He helped Leo win over Orbis Global Fund, dismantled Damien's plays one by one, and cleared the path for Leo to take the CEO chair at Saraca......
Too late, My Alpha
"Ms. Sophia, I'm sorry to say this poison has no cure. You have only seven days left." I accepted this fact with remarkable calm, asking her to keep my condition a secret. Until my Alpha husband burst in— "What the hell is going on? You're perfectly healthy." The poison was administered by Flora, his most beloved sister. I was dying. In the hospital, as he carried a pretending-to-faint Flora away without a moment's hesitation. I decided to give him one final gift— My departure.
After I Drowned: The Alpha Lost His Mind
Everyone in the Moonlight Pack knew the truth — Alpha William would burn it all down for his precious mistress without thinking twice. So when he ditched our Mating Anniversary to throw her a birthday party, leaving me wide open for Rogues to snatch me, tie me up, slit my throat, and toss my body into the sea — I finally let go of every last shred of hope. The story wrote itself after that: the abandoned Luna's tragic death was the one ugly stain on Alpha William's otherwise golden reputation. But when I reappeared — very much alive — as the Chief Financial Officer to the Lycan King, a wolf powerful enough to make the entire shifter world tremble, the rumors about me clawed their way back to the surface. "Did you hear how the former Luna died? The mate bond shattered, and the agony killed her — her and the unborn pup both." "Alpha William almost didn't survive it either. He's been falling apart ever since. Can barely hold his Pack together anymore." William and I crossed paths a
The Porcelain Children
Ten years ago, they buried a secret. Now, the secret is burying them. Six college friends, bound by a dark tragedy from their past, reunite for a ski trip in the remote Rocky Mountains. But when a once-in-a-century blizzard traps them, their only refuge is Blackwood Manor—a sprawling, Gothic estate isolated from the world. The manor is a museum of chilling perfection, home to a silent army of antique porcelain dolls and their cryptic hostess, Lady Morti. But their sanctuary soon becomes a gilded cage when one of them is found dead, their body grotesquely posed like a broken marionette. Left by the body is a single, chilling verse from a nursery rhyme. As the storm rages and the body count rises, each murder meticulously mirrors a line from the "Porcelain Children's Lullaby." With no escape, the survivors are pitted against each other, haunted by their decade-old sin. Is this the work of their strange, doll-obsessed hostess, or is the true monster one of them, enacting a terrible and
ただ寝てるだけで国を救ってしまった俺、周りからは「神算鬼謀の天才軍師」だと思われているらしい
始まりは三日分の食糧、寝そべっていたら建国の軍師になっていた 目が覚めると、そこは食糧が尽きた飢饉の時代の古代農村だった。 飢えで目がくらみ始めたその時、目の前にクエストウィンドウが現れた。「三日間連続で寝そべってください。報酬：一畝あたり三千斤収穫可能な神の食糧」 俺はすぐさま死んだように横たわったが、村長は俺が気絶したと勘違いした。「アン坊！こいつに粥を食わせろ！」 三日後、村長は村人を率いて神の食糧の種を丁重に迎え入れた。「アン坊は生ける仙人様だったとは！」 それを聞いた県令は俺を軍師として召し抱え、敵軍の包囲を破るよう命じた。 システムは新たなクエストを発令した。「評定の場で居眠りをしてください」 俺のいびきが轟くと、県令は俺が天機を推し量っているのだと信じ込んだ。 深夜、城壁が破られた。県令が評定の間に飛び込んできた。「仙尊様、お目覚めを！」 気持ちよく寝ていた俺は寝返りを打ち、手を振った。「うるさいな、寝てるんだ！」 翌日、敵軍は不可解にも突如潰走。投降した兵士は白状した。「昨夜、仙尊様が袖から仙剣を飛ばし、我が主将の首を刎ねたのです…」
THE CHIMERA GAMBIT
The Terran Mandate offers the galaxy two choices: order or oblivion. Grand Marshal Valerius is the fist that delivers the verdict. Kaelen was just another smuggler, a problem of debt and bad habits. Now, he's the Mandate's biggest problem. He's stolen the plans for Project Chimera, a doomsday weapon that makes planet-killers look like toys. The price on his head could buy a moon. His chance of survival is zero. Hunted by Valerius and trapped between factions of a rebellion as likely to kill him as help him, Kaelen's only path forward is a desperate run into the heart of the Imperial fleet. He holds the vector. He flies the ship. He is the one-in-a-billion shot. But can a man who only believes in credits save a galaxy that's already given up on hope?
