Marriage without dating

Orella
Naya Lawal is a relationship therapist who’s never been in love. After a humiliating scandal threatens her career, she needs to save face—and fast. Kian Adeyemi is a brilliant architect and single father caught in a custody battle that could cost him everything. They need each other. Not for love. For survival. A contract marriage. No dating. No strings. No feelings. But what starts as a quiet arrangement slowly turns into something neither of them expected. Living under the same roof, sharing late-night silences, accidental touches, and unspoken looks—Naya and Kian begin to unravel everything they thought they knew about love, trust, and themselves. “Marriage Without Dating” is a slow-burning, emotionally intense, and sensually charged romance about two broken people learning how to love—without ever meaning to.

Ascending Pride

What happens when a dragon gets sacrificed by his mate for his blessings? Blame the bird. What happens when a fish wants to rule the skies? Drag the bird down. What happens when a fox wants revenge? Seek out the bird. What happens when humans are lied to for generations? Coarse the bird. What does any of that have to do with the bird who most have never even met? How do they subdue a being that not even beast gods were able to defeat? How do they force a bird to stop flying? How do they kill a being... that cannot be killed? ... They break his heart... over, and over, and over. It's been over a thousand years since the beast god sealed itself away to heal from it's injuries. 700 years since the dragon was sacrificed. 600 years since a feathered snake started accepting human "wives". Almost 500 years since his heart was shattered. 300 years since history was rewritten. 200 years since the fish sent out a call. 50 years since the fox was tricked. 20 years since he gave his broken heart to a young warrior. 10 years since he was once again betrayed. 2 years since the bird found himself in a new body with only a fraction of his memories. Now, the most precious piece of his heart must either return, or bond with another. Now, the blessings from the sacrificed dragon have become a curse. Now, a young warrior has become leader of her people. Now, three nations are on the verge of extinction. Now, a snake wants his covenant honored. Now, a bird shakes his head as watches with a sigh. So few will live, while so many will die.
