Survival: Darkness in the Light

"Take me instead." Three words. Guinevere Lunaris trades herself and saves 300 lives. Tied. Gagged. Underestimated by a mile. They chain her to a tree in the snow. Mistake. While running for her life, she meets a stranger in the dark and tells him to hide so he isn’t killed. Twelve hours later, he walks into her father's hall wearing a crown. The man she just told to hide in a hole is Maddox Drakencrest, High King of Velkaris. Ruler of an entire continent. Maddox hears his dragon say ‘mate’ right away. But her wolf is silent. More and more Alpha Kings enter the hall. She catches the tail end of her father’s toast and chokes on her wine. "—leave here with a virgin bride." An auction for her hand turns into a full-out bidding war. Maddox wins. 750 million in gold, three dragon fleets, and an urn full of the bastard who chained her the day before. Every force in Velkaris is betting against a wolf on a dragon throne. The Elders say the queen must be a dragon rider, which is impossible for a woman without dragon blood. The king's half-brother agrees with them, but his solution is a civil war and taking the crown for himself. If his brother’s rebellion wins, Maddox dies and she belongs to him. If the elders win, she goes back to the father who sold her. Neither is happening. Her wolf calls Velkaris home. She's not giving it up. They expect Guinevere to behave like a good little wolf princess and play along with their political games. She says bet.

After her death, Lilith awakens in a world where fourteen billion players struggle for survival, power, and the right to continue existing. Over Ten million of them have become Demon Lords, each building their own race, their own territory, and their own army. Demonic Dragon Knights command vast legions, Vampires rise to build empires, and Lords of Catastrophe leave nothing but ruin in their wake. Yet Lilith enters this world as the Primordial Succubus Monarch - and quickly realizes she cannot walk the same path as the others. Instead of endless armies, she is given only three succubi, each unique in their own way, and the system permanently seals her ability to summon more. In a world where power is measured in numbers, such a gift feels more like a death sentence than a blessing. If she wants to conquer this world, she will have to take armies from other Demon Lords, grow stronger despite her limitations, and prove that a demon of desire is not meant only to seduce - but to fight. And above them all stand the Heroes… beings created for one purpose alone. To hunt and kill Demon Lords like her. And Lilith would soon realize… that neither Heroes nor Demon Lords were the true predators of this world. *** You can support me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/TorqQ

Transmigrated as the Saiyan Turles, he was originally destined to be a minor villain. However, everything changed when he awakened the "Attribute Collection System." By scavenging stats and drops from Goku and Vegeta on the battlefield, he rose from the Battle of Earth to dominate parallel universes including GT, Super, and AF. With the integration of multiple systems like "Deep Blue Stat Point Allocation" and "Per-Second Passive Growth," Turles eventually ascends to the rank of Grand Chrono-Official. Now standing far above the Grand Priests and King-tier deities, the so-called "God-Kings" of other planes are nothing but ants to be crushed at his whim.

In a world ruled by bloodlines and brutal hierarchy, Elara is a mistake. As the illegitimate, "wolfless" daughter of Alpha Silas, she has spent nineteen years in the shadows, supported only by her eldest brother, Leo. But when an enemy attack leaves Leo dead and their home in ashes, Elara’s father chooses to save his "perfect" daughter, Selene, by selling Elara at a black-market auction. Her buyer is the legendary "God of War," Alpha Kaelen of the Obsidian Pack. Elara expects a savior when she catches the scent of her fated mate, but she finds an executioner. Believing Elara intentionally left his "true love"—her half-sister Selene—to burn, Kaelen buys her only to make her suffer. Bound by an iron collar and cast into a silver-lined dungeon, Elara is forced to endure his vengeful wrath and the pack’s cruelty. However, Elara’s "wolfless" nature is the world’s greatest lie. Beneath the scars of silver poisoning lies the Hallowed Bloodline—an ancient power capable of commanding the elements and bridging the void.

[WARNING: This book contains adult content.] In a world where people awaken legendary beings upon turning 18— dragons capable of destroying mountains, phoenixes that set the skies ablaze, divine beasts that alter reality— Alex Carter awakened… Death. A small skeletal figure. A toy scythe. F-rank. Expelled from Celestial Academy and turned into the kingdom's laughingstock, his destiny seemed sealed. But ranks can lie. What Alex summoned was not a weak creature… but a sealed fragment of the true Grim Reaper—an existence so terrifying that even the gods joined forces to imprison it a thousand years ago. Seven fragments. Seven bearers. Seven paths to the end. While others train their companions… Alex can do the impossible. Evolve Death itself. Every corpse becomes a soldier. Every battlefield, his domain. Every soul… power. And as more fragments awaken— the world will understand, too late that what they scorned… was the beginning of something far worse than death.

JOIN THE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/rZP9uRGtjH The year was 1215, right after the great cataclysm. Humans were given the chance to tame a powerful beast to defend themselves. At the age of 18, every teenager underwent an awakening ceremony. This was their chance to tame a mythical beast to access more information about the world, join prestigious academies, and travel through unforsaken territories. Alex appeared to be a failed noble of the Thorn bloodline. Branded as a failure during his awakening ceremony, he was abandoned by his best friend and cast aside by society as nothing but a fallen aristocrat. But it wasn’t only he who faced this fate; there was a Demon who bore that same burden. The two of them chose to join forces, teaming up to bring ruin to this world. And that's where the Demon Tamer's System Arrived... Now, with the power to tame any beast, Alex Thorn set out from the bottom to prove the world wrong. The Beast-Taming academy, a place of burdened forces that lead to more incredible areas, will be his first stop.

Aine was born into simplicity and loved it. A warm family, a modest coffee shop, and a mother whose laugh made every ordinary morning feel like something worth remembering. It was not a grand life, but it was hers, and she never once thought to want more. Then her mother died, and the life she knew died quietly with her. Rebuilding meant starting over in a home that did not quite fit. A stepmother with expectations sharp enough to cut. A stepsister who made the distance between them feel deliberate. And a father who, despite everything, Aine never stopped loving, even when perhaps she should have. At Jade High, she learns to move through the world like a ghost. Unnoticed. Undemanding. Until Jokull finds her anyway, the school president, everyone's dream, and somehow, inexplicably, interested in her. For the first time since her mother's passing, something in Aine's carefully greyed world begins to stir. A fragile, terrifying thing that feels dangerously close to hope. But hope, she will learn, has a price. Her father, desperate and cornered, betrays the most powerful mafia organisation in the world. The consequences do not fall on him. They fall on Aine. Taken. Used as collateral. She endures pain, control, and betrayal. in those dark corridors that she will carry in her bones long after the bruises fade, abuses and pain that strip away whatever softness she had left and replace it with something harder, something that knows how to survive. And at the centre of it all is Ravi. The mafia's own. Dangerous and complex, with shadows in his past that run deeper than Aine initially understands. When the truth about Jokull surfaces, that he is not who he appeared to be, that his connection to the mafia world is older and darker than his charming smile ever suggested, Aine is faced with an impossible choice. She chooses Ravi. Not out of desperation. Not out of fear. She chooses him with her eyes open, and that choice changes everything. What begins as captivity slowly, painfully, honestly transforms into something neither of them planned for. Love grown in the hardest soil is still love. Ravi pursues her completely, and she lets herself be found. But Jokull refuses to disappear. He returns again and again, dragging trouble behind him like a shadow, until the violence of it costs Aine the one thing she cannot afford to lose. Her memories. Gone. All of it. The pain and the tenderness alike, swept clean. Ravi relocates with her, patient in a way no one who knows him would expect, and begins again. Slowly. Carefully. Planting seeds in ground he once nearly destroyed, watching something grow between them for the second time and understanding, now, how rare that is. But their love, rebuilt, fragile and real, is tested once more. The road to starting a family is not smooth, shadowed by fears neither of them speak aloud. Until the day Aine holds their child in her arms and the future, for the first time, feels possible. Then a ghost returns. A woman from Ravi's past. His childhood. The kind of history that does not knock before it enters. Tension bleeds into the life they have carefully built, and Aine stands at yet another crossroads. She has survived betrayal. Captivity. Loss. The erasure of her own story. She has chosen this man and this life more than once. But some battles cannot be won by simply enduring them. Will Aine fight for what she loves? Or will she finally, after everything, let love prove itself without her?
