Crimson Vale Academy—where reputation is currency, and failure is a stain you wear on your sleeve. Behind gothic walls and spotless uniforms, students aren't just educated—they're measured, ranked, and pitted against each other in a brutal meritocracy. Privileges are earned, not given. The strong rise. The weak vanish. Enter Kairon Vale, a transfer student marked Rank D—the bottom of the bottom. No badge. Just a stitched black fang, branding him as “Obsidian”—a warning to others.

But for most, it’s a losing battle. Yet Kairon isn’t here to fit in, impress, or play by their rules. Cold, calculating, and impossible to read, he watches the system… and waits. Because while the academy judges worth by numbers and names—he understands something deeper: Everyone wears a mask. And every mask can be cracked. Let the games begin.

After being expelled from three prestigious schools under mysterious circumstances, Aeris Vexley was transferred to Noxmere Academy, a remote, ivy-choked institution that doesn’t appear on any map. Noxmere is no ordinary school. Its students are anything but human —vampires, werewolves, demons, and fae walk the halls in tailored uniforms, speaking ancient languages between classes in Alchemy and Curse Theory. And humans? They’re not even allowed through the gates. So how did she get in? Everyone expects the new human girl to be a prey. But Aeris is full of surprises — not only does she survive her first week, but she also accidentally defeats a pureblooded vampire in a duel, outsmarts a fae prince in a wager, makes the werewolf as her unexpected shield and walks tearing away the devil’s contract. Now, the four ruling Houses are watching her. The devil wants to own her. The werewolf wants to mark her. The fae wants to enchant her. The vampire? He wants whatever she’s hiding — and he always gets what he wants. Aeris didn’t come to Noxmere to start a war. She came to survive but she might end up ruling them all.

On the cliff, the kidnappers held their knives to her and Elise’s necks. “You can only choose one,” they said. “I choose her,” the man pointed to his Elise. Kelsey trembled. “Rhett, I’m pregnant.” Rhett lifted his eyes without any emotion. “Elise is afraid of heights.” …Many years later. They say Rhett, the most powerful man in Spring City, is always standing at his ex-wife’s door, doing everything just to please her, even if she never looks at him. They say Rhett almost died in front of Kelsey’s door the night she brought another man home. Everyone envies Kelsey, but she just smiles and says, “Don’t die at my doorstep. I don’t want it to get dirty.” What nobody knows is that Rhett is obsessed with her. He doesn’t just want her body. He wants to control her completely, her heart, her mind, and even her soul. He will never let her go. --- Excerpt – Chapter 81: "Kelsey, You Are Mine" She pushed him away, but Rhett didn’t care about her resistance. He kicked open the door and threw her onto the sofa with a loud thud. Kelsey felt a sharp pain in her back and sat up, but the room was dark. Rhett’s tall figure made a scary shadow. He looked cold and didn’t care about anything. Kelsey was shaking. “Rhett, what do you want?” “I want YOU. Don’t you understand?” Rhett stepped closer. He didn’t turn on the lights. He just stared at Kelsey’s face in the dark. It was hard to see what he was thinking. “I told you to wait here for me for just a few days. How did you mess that up?” He was already in front of her. His tall body made Kelsey step back, but Rhett grabbed her wrist and pulled it hard. He grabbed her neck, making her look straight into his eyes. “I told you to stay away from that man. Did you ignore me?” Kelsey knocked his hand away. “We don’t have anything to do with each other anymore! You have no right to tell me what to do!” “Oh really? I have no right?” Rhett’s eyes suddenly turned darker, and he grabbed her tighter. He only let go when Kelsey made a pained face. Her eyes were full of tears. He sneered, “You two looked really close. He opened the car door for you, fastened your seatbelt, and even covered your head.” “Are you touched by that? Kelsey, how can you be so cheap...” His breath was hot next to her ear as he spoke. If she turned her head, she could see his cold, gloomy eyes. She tried to escape from his grip, but he held her even tighter. “Kelsey, you can only be mine.” Rhett pushed her hard against the wall. His eyes were full of fire and anger. He lifted her chin and kissed her hard. Only when he felt her soft lips did his anger calm down a little, like when they looked like a real family of three before. But that warm feeling wasn’t supposed to be on Kelsey. No one else should ever make her feel that way. No other man.

Alvin, an archaeologist from Earth, suddenly finds himself transmigrated to a magical world called Celestia, into the body of a 14-year-old boy who shares his name. As soon as he wakes up in this unfamiliar world, he finds himself trapped in a cage, held captive by a group of mad scientists. From the memories of his predecessor, Alvin learns that the boy had been kidnapped under the pretense of a high-paying job. Mentally challenged and desperate to earn money for his injured sister's treatment, the boy had agreed without hesitation. In the end, he lost his life—creating an opportunity for Alvin from another world to take his place...... This story weaves together magic, beast taming, cultivation and the kind of fantastical adventures many of us dreamed of as kids. It’s something I’ve poured my heart and time into, and I’d be grateful if you gave it a chance. If you read up to Chapter 10 and still don’t enjoy it, feel free to leave a negative comment before moving on (though I truly hope that won’t be the case).

Feared across the continent as the Bloody Duke of the South, Lucien Valecrest brought the empire to its knees in a decade-long war of rebellion. Cold, cunning, and charming in the most terrifying way, he carved a path through nobles and kings alike—until the arrow struck his heart in the emperor’s throne room. He died laughing… and then woke up ten years earlier. Now armed with a mind sharpened by war, secrets of traitors yet to act, and a forbidden blood magic only he can wield, Lucien sets his gaze on a single goal: do it all again, but better. Smarter. Faster. Bloodier. But there's a problem. Love. Specifically, them—the future enemies, allies, and pawns he once manipulated or murdered... who now keep catching his interest in all the wrong ways. A sharp-tongued baroness immune to his fear tactics. A priestess hiding a darker side. A loyal knight far too noble for her own good. And the one woman he swore he'd never fall for again. He may be a villain, but this time? He’s falling. And it’s ruining everything.
