The Contract With Her Father's Billionaire Rival

CassieVahl
Slow Burn 18+ Romance. [Heavy Smut starts after Chapter 40] EXCERPT: Alaric was too close to Nicolette. Her mouth was just inches away from his. He could smell the lavender on her skin, the heat radiating from within her. But he held back, refusing to be carried away by her charm… “Mr. Allens…” she purred, and he looked down at her. Her eyes widened with desire, and he knew, in that moment, that if he wanted to kiss her, she would let him. The last thing he wanted was commitment. He knew that Nicolette didn’t want that either. But why was she this tempting? So willing? It was that willingness that confused him. She blinked, then swallowed as she pulled the jacket off her shoulders. His eyes lingered on her exposed neck. God. He just wanted to bury his mouth in that hollow spot. “Here,” Nicolette said calmly, extending the jacket to him. He took the jacket, his hand brushing hers just a second. She flinched, her face turning pink as she clutched the towel against her chest. His stomach flipped at the sight. If only that towel would give way to… Before he could stop himself, Alaric pressed his arousal against her stomach, pushing her against the wall, cornering her. She gasped at the sudden movement and for a moment, he lost his mind. “Cole…” he breathed, crushing himself against her. Her eyes gleamed with desire and a vulnerability that rocked him to his core. He would be foolish not to give in to this feeling. But he would also be a fool if he did. She had chosen to marry him. Not her boyfriend. And definitely not Lucian Crawford. Yet, he couldn't help it. She was only his for a year. But still… *************** When her business and the gallery she inherited from her mother burn to the ground, Nicolette Voss is determined to rebuild—and get revenge on her father. She turned to her father’s rival, Alaric Allens, for an alliance. Alaric is willing to help, but on one condition—she must be his wife for a year. They called him Ruthless Alaric after an infamous incident 6 years ago. Alaric is back in town, and so are the crumbs of his past. But he is determined to change everything with a wife. He has his hidden agenda. She needs her revenge. But will this marriage between storm and steel survive the heat? And what will they do when deep secrets threatens to destroy them both?

After the forced love, I drove the demon god insane

She was once the most inconspicuous little goddess in the divine realm—silently guarding him for a thousand years, all for that Demon God who never spared her a single glance. To seal him away, she willingly gave up her divine heart, falling from godhood to mortality, just to grant him ten thousand years of peaceful slumber. But what she didn’t expect—was that the first thing he did upon awakening wasn’t gratitude, nor destroying the world... It was dragging her straight into a wedding hall, sneering as he said, “Seal me? Then spend a lifetime paying for it—with your life.” Before the red wedding veil was even lifted, he had already launched the hellish "Love Trial Arc": She became a stand-in for his former lover, yet he domineeringly declared, “You’re not her, but you drive me crazier than she ever did.” She was made a pawn in palace intrigue, yet he laughed as he overturned the empire, “I’ll give you the world—just promise you’ll only look at me.” She tried to escape, so he shattered the Three Realms, “Run, and I’ll destroy the world.” Her: “Are you insane?” The Demon God flips the table: “Yes. But only for you.”

Trench Crusade: WARHAMMERS SAINT BORN

Aaron Graves, a 30-something Warhammer hobbyist and online lore-debater, dies tragically (and stupidly) after knocking over a can of LPG while angrily typing a reply in a Trench Crusade fan thread. He dies mid-rant, mini brush still in hand. But instead of oblivion, he awakens in the middle of a mud-choked battlefield, face down in a trench. His first memory is a line of chanting zealots walking past with incense lanterns, their faces hidden by gas masks. A corpse beside him is whispering prayers to a god he's never heard of. He’s been transmigrated, body and soul—into the Trench Crusade universe. Only now… he’s not just a man. He is deemed a living relic by those around him, a “Saint-Born,” a vessel of prophecy who emerged from the smoke of a holy fire. Unfortunately, he has zero combat experience, can't stop referencing forum memes, and his only true skill is detailed knowledge of fake lore and painting miniatures. But it turns out… that knowledge might not be so fake after all. “Fanfiction based on the Trench Crusade universe created by Mike Franchina and Tuomas Pirinen.” Think a fusion of: *Warhammer 40k meets All Quiet on the Western Front *Re:Zero–style isekai trauma with a Dan Abnett narration twist *Touches of Terry Pratchett dark absurdity and Tomasz Baginski visual grit ******** Uploads: 5/8 chapters a week
