In the world of Genshin Impact, you gain an ability that lets you go fifty–fifty with anyone. What would you do with it? Cael says—obviously, you’d live the laid-back life. After all, if you don’t enjoy life in the world of Genshin, what’s the point? And so, whenever people mention Cael, they all end up saying the same thing: “This is the guy who claims he can’t beat anyone?!” He fought Tartaglia (Childe) of the Fatui to a draw. He fought the Raiden Shogun to a draw. Even Morax—Zhongli himself once remarked that if he were to seriously fight Cael, it might just trigger a second Archon War. Meanwhile, the Traveler, Lumine, has this to say: “I’ve never seen him defeat anyone… but I’ve also never seen anyone defeat him.”

In the rain-slicked streets of Onyx Port, peace is a structural lie, enforced by a network of fragile infrastructure and flickering surveillance—and the debt is finally coming due. Arthur Hale is a master of engineering and calculation. By day, he is the “Golden Son,” analyzing the city’s foundations at Vane Infrastructure & Risk (VIR). By night, he is a Ghost for the Union, pruning human variables to maintain a fragile balance. But the Union has gone silent, maintenance logs vanish, and his sister Maya is beginning to see the cracks in the “perfect brother” mask. Sloane Miller is a shadow in another machine. To VIR, she is the clumsy aunt raising her orphaned nephew, Leo. To the Republic, she is the Reaper—a lethal operator trained to disappear into the city’s subterranean veins. Wary, exhausted, and haunted by loss, she keeps her instincts sharp while hiding behind deliberate incompetence. When a mounting debt and shared target force them into a crumbling, off-books Private Investigation office—the Blind Spot—an uneasy partnership forms. A sanctuary with three strict rules: no questions about the past, no digging into personal matters, and never bring the work home. As the city becomes a silent battlefield, Arthur and Sloane are forced into missions that will strip away every safety they’ve known. Every street, bridge, and building hides both danger and opportunity. And as trust fractures and human variables defy calculation, the only constant they can rely on… is each other.

Not your regular billionaire romance She had a son with the most dangerous man in the city. And he can never find out. Four years ago, Aurielle Duval spent one reckless night with a stranger— a night that left her with a little boy who has his impossible blue eyes. She never learned his name. He disappeared before sunrise. And she rebuilt her life alone… until the day she walks into an interview at the world’s most powerful company. Its CEO is Kieran D’Angelo. Cold. Untouchable. Ruthless. The man she prayed she would never see again. He doesn’t recognize her— but he watches her, tests her, and claims her as his personal assistant. What Kieran doesn’t know is that Aurielle carries more than his past. She is the erased daughter of the D’Angelo empire— a child they tried to destroy before she ever opened her eyes. And the son she hides? He’s the living proof of a truth that could tear the family apart. When Kieran’s dark, charming cousin Dante returns— obsessed with Aurielle and hungry for power— a dangerous game begins. Love, obsession, and blood collide. And in a family built on lies, the woman they tried to erase may be the one who brings the empire to its knees.

Nearly a century ago, humanity survived the invasion of the Xin by awakening powers that reshaped the world. In the aftermath, humans claimed alien technology, opened portals to beast-filled planets, and built a civilization where bloodlines and awakenings decide who rises—and who is crushed. Raze Zaden has none of it. No family. No awakening. No future anyone expects to matter. And yet, when entire planets begin to die and something ancient moves behind the shadows, Raze is chosen for a system that was never meant to exist. [Congratulations. You have received the first… and last… God Slayer System] [Your hunger grows] [You must eat flesh to restore your regeneration] [Failure to eat flesh will result in death]

When my father's company crumbles under sabotage and my fiancé betrays me with my stepsister on what should have been our engagement night, I'm left with nothing but debts and humiliation. Enter Damien Cross—the ruthless billionaire whose empire spans continents and whose reputation leaves CEOs trembling. He offers a devil's bargain: marry him for one year, play the perfect wife in public, and he'll save my family from destruction. I agree, expecting ice and indifference. What I don't expect is the way he watches me like I'm a puzzle he's desperate to solve, the possessiveness that flares when other men look my way, or the heat that burns between us despite the contract keeping us apart. He thinks I'm just another society girl playing dress-up in his world. He has no idea I'm Aria Chen—the anonymous financial genius who's been dismantling corrupt empires from the shadows, including threats to his own company. As my secret identity begins unraveling the conspiracy that connects our pasts, Damien's control starts slipping. The marriage was supposed to be fake. The desire was never supposed to be real. And I was never supposed to fall for the man who owns me on paper but is slowly conquering every guarded piece of my heart.

“Sign the contract, Elena. Your mother lives, but your life belongs to me.” Elena Lin was at the bottom of the abyss. Her father was framed for medical malpractice, her family estate was seized by the Blackwood conglomerate, and now, her mother lay dying on a hospital bed she couldn't afford. In a moment of desperation, she uses a forbidden technique from her family’s ancient scrolls—the Phoenix Needle—to save a dying elderly man in a parking lot. She expected a thank-you; she didn't expect to be cornered by the man’s grandson, the terrifying Alexander Blackwood. Alexander is a man of ice—literally. Stricken by a mysterious affliction that Western doctors call a "nerve disorder" but Elena recognizes as a lethal Yin Curse, he needs a miracle. He offers Elena a deal: Marry him for one year, act as his personal "stabilizer" through her mysterious touch, and he will pay for her mother’s surgery and help her clear her father’s name. But there is a catch: Alexander is the man who signed the order that ruined her father. Inside the cold, gilded halls of the Blackwood Mansion, Elena must play the role of a submissive "trophy bride" by day, while secretly using her oriental arts to dismantle her enemies by night. As she navigates high-society galas and corporate assassinations, she discovers that Alexander’s "curse" isn't a disease at all—it’s a spiritual attack from a hidden world she thought only existed in her father’s legends. As the needles fly and the Qi flows, the ice around Alexander’s heart begins to melt. But when the truth of the past is revealed, will Elena’s healing touch be enough to save the man she was supposed to hate? A story of ancient pulses, modern hearts, and the secret medicine that can heal anything—except a broken heart. To save her mother’s life, Elena Lin sold her soul to the man who destroyed her family—never imagining that her "forbidden" oriental arts were the only thing keeping the cold-blooded CEO from a supernatural death.

Ash was just a firefighter. No powers. No destiny. Just another exhausted man walking home after saving lives. Then a truck lost its brakes. Fire followed. And death came without mercy. When Ash opened his eyes again, the world was wrong—too colorful, too alive. He had been reborn into One Piece. But there was a cruel twist. The body he woke up in wasn’t his own. It was Portgas D. Ace’s. The face of a legend. The son of Gol D. Roger. A man loved, mourned… and already dead. Yet Ash had none of Ace’s power. No Flame-Flame Fruit. No strength worthy of the name. Only memories from another world. Only knowledge of what was supposed to happen. And a body that invited fear, hatred, and impossible expectations. The Minks see him as a mockery. The world sees him as a ghost. And the sea shows no mercy to the weak. Stripped of power but armed with understanding—of languages, of history, of secrets buried in Poneglyphs—Ash must survive in a world that already decided his fate once. This is not the story of Ace. This is the story of a powerless man wearing a legend’s face… Trying to live long enough to see what One Piece truly is. ______________________________________________________ Cover is a fan-edited image used for non commercial fanfiction.

Why'd I have to be born the oldest? ​Nazma stared blankly at her wardrobe, all alone on a bed that felt way too cold for someone her age. While other girls her age were stressing about homework and first crushes, Nazma had to carry a weight much heavier: the survival of her family and the silence of her own heart. ​“God… if I get born again, can I please be the second kid?” ​She desperately wanted to know what it felt like to have a big brother. Someone to stand out front, not behind. Someone to protect her. Someone to lead the way—so she wouldn't have to be strong all by herself every single day. ​But in the real world, she is the firstborn. The one who must lead. The one who must endure. And when she finally finds the courage to speak up against the world's unfairness, she realizes the harshest truth of all: ​It is a story of a girl's voice in a world that refuses to listen. ​Between the dusty halls of village meetings and the secret screams on her digital screen, Nazma navigates the messy layers of angst, broken friendships, and the suffocating social order. She is tired of being "the strong one." She is ready to be heard—even if she has to disappear from the circulation of their "normal" world to do it.

In a world where heroes rise, wars repeat, and destiny always seems to follow the same script, something unseen has begun to watch. Hidden above reality, beyond time and history, stands Sefirah Castle—a throne shrouded in endless gray fog.

And fate… can be rewritten. But every gift has a price. This is not a story about saving the world. It is a story about breaking it free from inevitability. And once the fog descends, nothing—heroes, villains, or destiny itself—will ever remain fixed again. Read advanced chapters and support us on Patreon https://patreon.com/Drrajnovel
