The Blue Lotus : Hellscroll

Wenlock
Mortals have always clung to neat ideas about the afterlife — of karma, rebirth, and the punishments that follow sin. But what if even death isn’t the end? Zhang Xiyu was once a scholar in the royal court. He died centuries ago and quickly learned that there indeed could be a death after death. Betrayed by his king while alive and discarded by his judge after death. But those are matters of the past. The souls crying under his palm would never imagine that once upon a time, Zhang Xiyu was one of them. Lord Enma has turned away, the underworld is collapsing, and the damned souls spill into the mortal realm and prey upon the humans. Upon entering Hell, its three princes decide to cast him into the Kaigan Pit, the rotting heart of every nightmare, not just for their sick entertainment. But to retrieve the Blue Lotus, the artifact said to grant dominion over Hell. What he finds instead is a goddess. The ancient mother of Hell binds him with an unbelievable promise: kill Enma's sons, take his throne, and restore what corruption has ruined. In a world where every soul hides a blade, and every god has abandoned their post, only one question prevails. Has Hell chosen a new heir? And if it has— is Zhang Xiyu being crowned… or led somewhere else entirely? New Update - Every Saturday!

Bloodstained Vows

In the shadowed underbelly of New York City, two once-innocent hearts are forged anew in betrayal and bloodshed. Elena Rossi was the untouchable princess of the second-largest mafia family—pampered, protected, and promised a life without stains. Until the night her father is gunned down, shattering her world and leaving her clan teetering on collapse. Her only salvation lies with the man she once loved and now despises: Luca Moretti, the ruthless boss of the rival Moretti empire. The boy who stole her first kiss under summer stars has returned from five years abroad as a cold, lethal predator—scarred, unforgiving, and more powerful than ever. Desperate for revenge and survival, Elena swallows her pride and begs for his alliance. Luca agrees... but his price is cruel and intimate. She must become his mistress—body, nights, and secrets surrendered completely. Every touch reignites old flames; every argument ends in bruising passion. As they hunt her father's killers together, buried truths surface: the assassination was no simple power grab, but a deeper conspiracy that threatens both empires. Hatred twists into obsession. Revenge becomes redemption. And the line between enemy and lover blurs until it shatters entirely. In a world where trust is a luxury and love is a weapon, Elena and Luca must decide: will they burn everything down for vengeance... or build something unbreakable from the ashes? A steamy, second-chance enemies-to-lovers mafia romance packed with face-slapping tension, slow-burn fire, weak-to-strong heroine growth, dark secrets, and a love that could destroy them both.
