A deafening howl tore through the battlefield. The Octopus monster rose from the rubble, its soulless black eyes filled with madness. Olivia could barely stand. Her team was on the brink of death. And then… something moved. The tiny snake sank his fangs into the Bowolf’s cores. A surge of energy exploded. Wings of pure fire unfurled, its golden eyes blazed. A dragon had risen. But one fatal mistake… He fell. Something inside Olivia snapped. A roar ripped from her throat as flames consumed her. The sky cracked apart, and then… [SYSTEM WARNING!] [The Fire of Chaos has been activated.] [Continued use will lead to destruction] But Olivia wasn’t stopping. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thirty years ago, the world ended.  Unknown monsters descended upon the earth, plunging it to ruins. But with the destruction came a blessing or rather a curse.  The System. Now, humans wield superpowers, battling the creatures that threaten their existence. The last survivors formed factions, fighting to stay alive. But survival is a cruel game of fate. Every year, the system selects a group of unwilling teenagers  by lottery- to fight, to die. Olivia never asked for any of this. Betrayed by her family, forced to fight, she was left for dead. Until fate intervened. Until she met him. Little White, the small, snake-like creature at her side, is hiding secrets far greater than she imagined. When death closed in, his truth unraveled, along with something even darker inside Olivia—power, overwhelming and untamed. The Fire of Chaos is burning inside her, and if she doesn’t learn to control it…. She’ll destroy everything. Survival is just the beginning. The real war is yet to come.

Betrayed. Broken. Executed. Mei Liang’s life ended the night she sought vengeance against the emperor who destroyed her family. But death was not the end. She transmigrated into the body of a forgotten concubine—three years after her own death. With a new identity and a second chance, she swears to outmaneuver her enemies, reclaim her power, and rise as empress. Yet, the emperor who once condemned her now watches her with an unsettling gaze. Does he recognize her? Or is he hiding an even darker secret? This time, she won’t fail. This time, she will have her revenge.

“Heroes killed my parents. Now I wear the mask of one. Until I can bury them all.” At seven years old, Hernan Vale watched his parents — two powerful heroes — brutally executed in their own home by the very people they trusted most: the legendary super-team known as the Zodiac 13. They thought he was dead. They made sure the world blamed villains. They covered their tracks. But Hernan survived — and never forgot. Ten years later, under a false name, Hernan enters the prestigious Hero Academy, hailed as a prodigy. To the world, he’s a rising star. To his classmates, he’s charming, calm, unstoppable. But inside? He’s a weapon. Waiting. Smiling. Counting names. As he trains to become a licensed hero, fights real villains, and rises through the ranks, Hernan plays the long game — earning the trust of the Zodiac, learning their routines, studying their weaknesses. One by one, he’ll bring them down. And this time, he won’t hide in the closet. But the deeper he goes, the more blood he spills — the more he wonders if he’s becoming worse than the monsters he’s hunting. And when love, loyalty, and lies collide, Hernan may have to decide: Will he save the world like they think he will... or finish burning it down?

Spirits and Evil Spirits exist along with Balancers who possess unique powers to see and fight them. Among the many ordinary humans, a girl undergoes a lot of suffering and experiences a prophetic vision. It grants her knowledge of the hidden world and of some future events. The girl loses almost everything she has and then takes the steps needed to become a Balance Breaker. Her past identity has to be abandoned for the sake of survival so she renamed herself Ash. Ash gains the powers of a Skin-Walker and begins living in such a world taking on the appearances of others, experiencing their lives and living under the mask of another person.

"He didn’t know where the story truly began. Maybe it was the moment the prison doors closed behind him, or when his family’s fate was forever altered. With every step, he uncovered more than met the eye—but the truth always stayed just out of reach. All he knew was this: if he ever wanted answers, he’d have to face whatever lurked beyond the darkness."

“Is this a joke?” That was the first thing Felix thought when he turned 18 and sensed his mate bond. How could Jared possibly be his mate?! The man who bullied him since they were kids, a complete player, and the pupil of Felix’s ‘beloved’ father?! Sure, he was powerful, handsome and leader of their pack - the best match out there, that any other Omega would die for… But nope, not Felix! Felix had no idea what Moon Goddess was thinking, but he wasn’t going to sit still and accept his fate. The problem was that Jared wanted him… And during his first heat, Felix accidentally slept with him! He’d never agree to break their bond now! Well then… What else could a guy do but to run away? But fate wasn’t done dealing with him. Soon after he left, he discovered he was pregnant! From then on, he not only would have to worry about his own survival, but also take care of a child! Two months later, after traveling across the country, he finally found a nice town to settle in. No pack controlling the area, just a few rogues and other rejects. Perfect. After his terrible first match, Felix didn’t want another mate! Except. As Felix was busy getting his new life in order and preparing to welcome his baby, a handsome and dangerous - or maybe dangerously handsome? - Alpha stopped by in town. Kade, the next leader of the Bloodmoon Pack, one of the most powerful packs out there! And Felix sensed a bond between them… “Really? Really? I have to go through this again?!” “Thanks but no thanks, I would rather be a rogue!” Felix said, hugging a fox that made its home in his pantry… And the fox snickered, burying its head in Felix’s neck.

"I shouldn't want this," she breathed, stepping back until her spine hit the cold steel of the railing. "I shouldn't want you." "Then tell me to stop," he murmured. "Tell me, Luna, and I will walk away." "You won’t." "You're right." His smile was sharp, dangerous. "Because you don’t want me to." "This will ruin everything," she said. Her voice cracked. "It already has." His lips were at her ear now. "And I’d do it all over again." "Kael…" "Say it," he begged. "I want you. Even if it destroys me."

I lined up along with my countrymen to the guillotine. I have no regrets and my heart is empty. Before the blade fell on my neck, the Emperor, the Alpha of the land raised his hand, halting my execution. I thought I am bestowed mercy, but his sinister smile broadened and said, "I have better use for you." He finished his words and I was dragged by the soldiers, while I tried to go back to the execution platform.

Shantel Hale has spent her life trying to live above the dark shadows her mother’s reputation cast over her. She has seen powerful men fall at Jessica Hale’s feet— the infamous seductress popularly termed the modern day ‘Jezebel’ only to be left ruined afterwards. But unlike her sisters, who embraced their mother’s legacy to build fortunes and secure influential husbands, Shantel, the seventh and youngest daughter of Jessica Hale, had carved her own path in secret, gathering several awesome identities for herself. One of them was the elusive Elsa—an influential force in the corporate world, sought after by the most powerful executives. Invincible CEOs vie for her counsel, but she has consistently refused to step into the limelight while offering her services. Meanwhile, in a desperate bid to salvage his company that was crumbling after a scandal, Richard Domango turns to Elsa, convinced that she is the only one who can save him. Seeing that Richard had played right into her hands, Shantel will stop at nothing to demand for her pound of flesh from Richard for humiliating her in the past. But neither is ready for the sparks that begins to fly between them, especially Richard after finding out that his saviour, whom he fell helplessly for at first sight, is none other than Shantel Hale— ‘the seventh daughter of Jezebel’ and the very woman he’d felt nothing but blatant disdain for all his life. Will they allow their past to chart a vengeful path for them, or give in to the all consuming attraction growing between them in leaps and bounds by the day?

“You want to know about the mate bond we share?” His words stopped me midway as I turned around to face him. I didn’t say a word as I felt my heart palpitate in anticipation. “Beta Perez, I…” Before I could speak, he continued. “I have decided to never let a woman into my life, Miss. James. I have learned long back that they only serve as a distraction. Why would I need a mate if I could have any women I want? Am I right, Miss. James?” He asked me as I felt my eyes burn, but I held back my tears. “A mate is your better half, Beta Perez.” I choked out the words when he let out a humorless laugh. “According to me, you need a mate to satisfy your needs and maybe an heir in the long run. I think I can buy that with some money, Miss. James.” “Don’t you feel the mate bond, Beta Perez?” I asked him, but he didn’t answer. “I would have at least considered mating with you if you held a rank, Miss. James. But I don’t think I want a woman who is a nobody with a lonely mother and a runaway father.” I felt my chest rise and fall in anger while something broke within me. A tense silence engulfed us as we stared at one another. Join us in this journey where Aurora and Zander find love again as sparks ignite between them and desire crackles in the air, the tension builds, pushing them closer together. Will Zander’s feelings toward the mate bond transform as he grapples with the chemistry between them, or will fear of another heartbreak drive him to reject her? The future is uncertain, but one thing is clear: their destinies are intertwined in ways they never anticipated.

Not every diamond sparkles in daylight—some only shine in the dark. Twelve women. Bound not by blood, but by a creed etched in silence. They do not wear crowns, but when they walk, kingdoms bow. Behind luxury’s glitter, they deal in power, debt, and disappearances. Their world isn’t seen—it’s felt in whispers, in trembling hands, in vanished names. They run protection like religion. Clean dirty money till it glistens. Trade secrets heavier than gold. Seduce with class, eliminate with silence. What they don’t own, they control. What they can’t control, they destroy. But a name begins to ripple through their calm—Kaine London. A billionaire with no public stain, no visible leash. He walks through rooms like a rumor: charming, cold, and unreachable. They don’t trust what they can’t trace. So they go after him. With masks tighter than ever, heels sharper than steel, they infiltrate. They charm, they watch, they wait. But Kaine is not a man who’s watched. He’s the one pulling strings in the smoke. And the deeper they dive, the more they realize—the real game isn’t Kaine. It’s what’s hiding behind him. A darker force. One that plays dirtier, kills slower, and has been waiting for them all along. In a world draped in velvet, beauty distracts, power deceives, and blood remembers.
