Lured by the Moon

“I will drag you into an darkest abyss, as you have done to me for your betrayal. It’ll be like an eye for an eye and tooth for an tooth.” Atlas watches him kneeling on the ground with a dagger in his side, blood trickling from his wound. Atlas stands there, leaning against the wall with a nonchalant expression. Atlas stepped away from leaning against the golden statue, and he walked closer to him with a predatory grace, calm and effortless, and Atlas cradled his face with a possessive and clinging hold, and Atlas smiled gleefully, “Let’s make a deal. Belong to me and do everything I say, and I’ll release your brother.” Sebastian never saw this day coming, and he truly regretted saving him on that snowy day. This person isn’t the same youth from before, for vengeance and hatred only remain in his heart. The only thing he can do is appease the man. But this time, he will never give out his heart again. And he will never reveal the real truth behind his betrayal. What’s the point? Sebastian looked at the man before him and resisted the urge to move away from the hand on his face. His eyes remained stoic. In a hard voice, he said, “Fine. I will do what you want; in exchange, let my brother go.” *** Sebastian lives a normal life with his family, but he lives a hidden life. He has a dark secret that he protects at all costs; otherwise, he will be killed for being a monster. He and the rest of his family are vampires, living off blood, but his family, especially his father and mother, don’t feed on humans, for they cling onto morality, hoping not to descend into depravation. Sebastian cherishes his family, and they are both his strength and his weakness. They are the ones who maintain his humanity and keep him in check. But being a vampire comes with a deadly price; he must blend in with the human world, pretending to be a human is an effortless task: calculating and flirtatious is a mask he carries for centuries, playing with the lives of those around as if they’re just a game. His heart never lets anyone in, keeping distance from anyone except for his family, who live and protect each other. On that fateful night, he never thought he could have another emotional connection. A young, feral boy carrying a hunter's knife is surrounded by blood, snow, and dead wolves in the forest. Why does his youthful body carry a grotesque canvas of scars like they tell a gruesome past? Why do his eyes carry a heavy burden that’s too young for a human? Or is he a human in the first place? Soon, he would learn that Atlas carries heavy, dark secrets, where Sebastian had to look for an answer in Atlas’s past and must decide if he’s worth forgiving and protecting. ***

A dance with the pentarch kings.

In a kingdom ruled by kings barely out of boyhood but already steeped in blood and power, Royal Imperium Prestigia High is where monsters are crowned—and innocents are devoured. Five thrones. Five ruthless rulers. And thousands of noble-born students who’d kill for a chance to kneel at their feet. For most girls accepted into Prestigia, it’s the pinnacle of existence. The highest honor. The dream—a chance to brush shoulders with royalty, to earn the favor of the five ruling kings, and maybe, if they’re lucky, be claimed. They come draped in silk and perfume, eyes glittering with desperate hope, praying for a glance, a favor, a touch. They whisper the kings’ names like prayers and spend their days chasing their attention like moths to flame. They worship the kings like gods. They would die to be noticed. And some do. But Blazar Staray is not like the others. And she didn’t come here for love. Blazar Staray was born a nobody. Sold into slavery. Bought by a king. Raised as a weapon. Her orders are simple: infiltrate the elite academy, pose as a noble boy named Orion Spade, and assassinate the most powerful king among the five. Succeed, and she gets to live. Fail, and she dies the way all pawns do—forgotten. But the academy is nothing like she expected. Prestigia isn’t a school. It’s a warzone wrapped in silk and gold, where students wield magic like knives, royalty rules with claws and fangs, and the five kings—Dante, Kaelric, Vesper, Xeari, and Ryuzaki—treat life like a game they always win. One wrong look, one wrong word, and you're either sent to the dungeon cells… or executed. Blazar’s defiant presence doesn’t go unnoticed. Instead of fading into the background, she catches the attention of all five. They should have ignored her. They were supposed to. But now they’re circling her like predators, each with their own twisted interest. Some want to protect her. Some want to break her. Some might want more. To survive, Blazar must outwit predators who were born to rule, all while hiding her identity, her scars, and her past. But she didn’t come here to play their game. She came to end it. And if she has to burn this entire academy down to do it? So be it.

Dear Alpha King, Please Steal Me Away

Lily was a terminally ill patient who clung to her life with all she had, desperately hoping she could change her fate, but fate can't be changed that easily. Fate was... Set in stone. And so, she died after fighting for fifteen years, at the age of 20, only to be reincarnated into a novel and became Lilah, who just so happens to be the unfortunate twin who would not live past 21. It seemed like her fate was to suffer once more and die an early age. After getting nothing but bullying for as long as she could remember in that household, Lilah expected nothing and knew her end was a dreadful one in the hands of the vampires. She did not fight fate anymore. It was more like she did not have the strength to. But once they started to change out of the blue, showing her kindness and showering her with little affection, she began to feel her heart lighten up, and this built a shaky tower of hope in her heart. Hope that maybe she wouldn't need to meet such a tragic fate in this life. And that hope made her wish to live. She wanted to live. And she would, but all she had to do was run. And she ran... Right into the arms of the Lycan King, who was meant to take her sister away and live a happily ever after with her. She was unaware of who he was at first. She could see his heart, which was purer than gold, and was captivated. It was like love at first sight for her, and she surrendered to this man, pleading that he take her away so she would not end up with the same fate as the original character. Will this chance encounter lead them to a happily ever after, blind Lilah never dreamed of? Or will it only spawn more troubles no one thought of? "It's only a matter of time before everything falls into place."

The Villains Must Win

I’m a proud NEET who’s devoured every romance novel, manga, webtoon, and otome game out there. Just when I thought I’d conquered it all, a black bunny appeared in my dream. “Congrats! You’ve been chosen to help villains win across multiple worlds!” “Like a game?” “Uh . . . sure.” “Great, I’m in!” And just like that, I became an agent of the Villain System. Time to rewrite some happily-ever-afters—villain style. **[NOTE!]** This novel features multiple short arcs, each exploring different tropes such as ancient China, the modern world, beasts, werewolves, vampires, fantasy, school romance, idol groups—you name it! The twist? Each arc focuses on our MC making the villain (male) triumph over the male and female leads. The story is written primarily in 2nd and 3rd person POV for a dynamic and immersive experience. || Excerpt || [WARNING! MATURE Content Ahead!] “Then serve me . . . properly.” The command was both sensual and authoritative, and Xue Li’s pulse quickened under his intense gaze. The air between them grew heavy, her trembling hands faltering as she began to run the sponge across his chest, her touch featherlight against his scars. “Y-yes your majesty.” Han Feng leaned back slightly, watching her through half-lidded eyes, his expression unreadable. “Slower,” he murmured, his voice a low rumble that made her pulse skip. “You’re trembling,” he said, his voice velvet smooth, making her flinch. “I-It’s the steam, Your Majesty,” she stammered, though she knew it was a poor excuse. Han Feng chuckled softly, the sound deep and rich. “Hmm . . . Is that so? Then you have no problem cleaning my cock right?” Xue Li's eyes trembled, on the verge of tears, which seemed to please Han Feng. His smile grew wider as he urged her on. "Go on. You're going to serve me properly, aren't you?"
