Ruined Estate

Naitik_Saxena
Kael Viremont woke up to the stench of mold and a title that was basically a death warrant. He wasn’t the golden child or the brave war hero. He was the spare—the family embarrassment dumped on a rotting frontier estate that even the gods had given up on. He was left with nothing but starving people, hostile neighbors, and a "curse" that kept the locals whispering in the dark. The world expected him to roll over and die quietly. But they dragged the wrong man into this mess. Back in his old life, Kael didn’t pray for solutions; he engineered them. He doesn’t care about noble bloodlines or the "divine right" to rule. While the other lords are busy stabbing each other in the back for scraps of land, Kael is in the dirt. He’s fixing the plows. He’s organizing the workers. He’s turning a graveyard into a powerhouse by treating magic like a math problem that’s long overdue for a solution. But there’s a reason this land was abandoned. Something is buried deep under the Viremont soil—a secret that proves the world’s history is a lie. Now that Kael is digging, the powers that be are starting to notice. The shadows are moving, and the "miracles" are starting to bleed. Kael didn’t claw his way back from the dead just to survive a few seasons. He’s here to build something unshakeable. If the laws of reality don't like his plans, he’ll just have to break them and build something better.

Wolf Princess Sold to the Dragon King

"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.

Heir of the eight gods

In a world where survival is dictated by power, chosen youths are dragged into a brutal trial where monsters roam and death is constant. Among them is Jade—a boy with an unusual affinity for blood and a mind sharpened by deception and instinct. From the moment he steps into the trial, Jade realizes one truth: strength is not given—it is taken. Armed with a mysterious system that allows him to absorb fragments from slain creatures, Jade begins his rise. His body evolves. His abilities grow. And his control over blood, ice, and living vines turns him into something far beyond human. But power comes at a cost. As alliances form and shatter, Jade crosses paths with a deadly assassin known as Silent Slayer—a man who moves through shadows and kills without hesitation. What begins as a clash between two monsters slowly turns into an uneasy alliance when a greater truth emerges: The trial is not just about survival. It is a prison. Hidden deep within ancient ruins lies a secret that binds all participants—a force tied to forgotten gods, rebirth, and a fate that cannot be escaped. And at the center of it all… Is Jade. As his power grows, so does the fear around him. Some call him a savior. Others call him a monster. But one title begins to echo across the trial: Blood Slayer. To escape, Jade must conquer the shadowed world, face ancient guardians, and uncover the truth behind the Eight Gods. Because in this world… Only one can inherit their power.
