Erus has royal blood, but his own father treats him like a monster. To the King, Erus is just a savage creature who needs to be controlled. The people also branded him Tyrant. Growing up hated and alone, Erus only wanted one thing, a place where he truly belonged. ​To prove himself, he entered a deadly trial where the winner earns a title and a spot serving the King. He was even desperate enough to try making a deal with the God of Death just to win. But then Cana showed up and completely changed his path. Instead of a dark pact with the underworld, an accidental "Master-Slave" contract bound them together. Erus is the Master and Cana is the servant, but their connection is way deeper than a simple spell. ​As they fight through the trial, Erus realizes he isn't the only one with terrifying power—Cana’s abilities might actually be stronger than his. They share a bond that goes back to a past someone tried desperately to bury. Now, they have to survive a trial designed to kill them while facing enemies who are just hiding behind their own fear. ​In the end, what’s more important: the title that was stripped away, or the memories that were erased to keep the truth hidden?

The Alpha’s Second Soul: Marking My Tragic Omega ​"I spent twenty-three years trapped in a body that didn't want to live. Now, I have a heart that won't stop beating for him." ​Lin Cheng was a ghost in the modern world—an orphan born with a terminal heart disease, counting his days from a broken three-seater sofa. His only escape was the world of webnovels, until the day his heart finally gave out while reading about a "Scum Alpha" who shared his name. ​When he opens his eyes, the sterile smell of the hospital is gone, replaced by expensive sandalwood and the intoxicating pheromones of an S-Class Alpha. ​Lin Cheng has transmigrated into the body of the First Son of Minister Lin—a brilliant scholar turned drunken gambler who has just been forced into a "Scandalous Marriage" with Lu Hang, a delicate, hardworking Omega who sold his soul to the Lin family just to buy medicine for his sick grandmother. ​In the original story, the "Scum Alpha" Lin Cheng treated Lu Hang like a slave, beating him and humiliating him until the boy took his own life in despair. ​But the new Lin Cheng isn't a monster. ​Armed with 21st-century knowledge and a powerful, healthy Alpha body, Lin Cheng vows to rewrite the script. While the Imperial Court expects a drunken failure, he shows up as a cold, calculating genius. And while the world expects him to discard his "lowly" Omega, Lin Cheng has other plans. ​"They called you a curse, Lu Hang," Lin Cheng whispers, his thumb grazing the boy’s trembling bottom lip as he pins him against the silk pillows. "But to me, you’re the only reason this heart beats. From tonight on, if anyone touches a hair on your head... I’ll burn the Empire to the ground." ​He didn't just come to survive the plot. He came to claim the one person the world forgot to love.

Seventeen-year-old Kaito Endo doesn't remember killing his mother—his mind erased it to survive. When supernatural fragments grant him reality-bending powers across Tokyo, the limitation in his abilities mirrors the fracture in his psyche: he literally cannot hold contradictions.

A psychological thriller about weaponized trauma, the architecture of denial, and whether choosing humanity over godhood is strength or surrender.

In the cold, sapphire shadows of the Silas estate, I am nothing but a masterpiece. A "Porcelain Doll" kept on a pedestal of fear, my skin mapped by the heavy gold rings of a monster who calls himself my protector. Silas has spent years trying to bleach the soul out of me, marking me as his property until I forgot the sound of my own voice. Then came Julian Thorne—and the silence didn't just break. It burned. Julian is the city’s Golden Boy, a lethal prince with hands that should be used for prayer but are made for sin. He didn’t just look at me; he saw me. He saw the bruises hidden under my silk, the hunger behind my hollow eyes, and the raw, unpolished woman screaming to get out. Our love isn't a fairy tale. It’s a riot. It’s the frantic press of his lips against mine in a dusty storage room. It’s the way his bandaged fingers tremble when they slide beneath my lace, overwriting Silas’s cold touch with a heat that makes me ache. It’s the raw, desperate vows whispered in the dark of a rotting boathouse while the world hunts for us. Now, I am the prize in a war of obsessions. Silas wants to keep me caged, a silent ornament to his power. Julian wants to set me on fire, to hear me moan his name until the sky falls. Silas marked my body. But Julian... Julian is carving his name into my soul.

MARKING THE LUNA, MOON GODDESS FEARED ​The Premise: A Blasphemy in the Blood ​For eight hundred years, the world of the Nine Territories has been a masterpiece of celestial order. Under the silver gaze of the Moon Goddess, the high society of the Alphas has thrived, governed by the sacred Laws of the Moon-Song. But this peace is a lie built on the ashes of a forgotten genocide. In the shadows of the Ashen Fringes, a girl named Viara has lived a life of quiet suppression, hiding a heritage so lethal that its mere existence threatens to collapse the firmament. ​Viara is not a standard wolf. She is the final vessel of a Seven-Fold Ultimate Alpha lineage—a bloodline that reached the apex of physical dominance seven times over—intertwined with the soul of an Occultic Witchcraft grandmother who once commanded the dark pathways of the Void. She is a biological apocalypse, a "God-Slayer" blueprint born from a union that the Moon Goddess tried to erase during the Great Shattering. ​The Catalyst: The Marking of the Sun ​The story ignites when Alpha Davic, the Ultimate Alpha of the 9 Alphas, declares a territory-wide Binding Ceremony. Davic is the apex predator of the modern age, the Warden of the Silver Reach, and the Goddess’s chosen champion. He is a man of iron restraint, weary of his own divinity and the political squabbles of the other eight Alphas who envy his throne. ​When he encounters Viara at the Star-Iron Altar, the encounter is not a romantic spark,it is a structural failure of reality. The moment their skin touches, the Solar Pulse,the forbidden energy of Viara’s ancestors detonates. The sun vanishes, the moon bleeds a bruised violet, and a "Glitch" in the laws of physics tears through the Silver Reach. Davic doesn't just find a mate; he finds a mirror. He marks a woman who doesn't bow to his authority, but whose blood challenges his very right to rule. ​The Mark that appears on them is not a lunar sigil, but a Crown of Thorns entwined with a Black Sun. It is a declaration of war against heaven. ​The Conflict: The Toxic Bond and the Divine Hunt ​As the news of the "Usurper’s Seed" spreads, the Council of the Eight, other territory leaders led by the ambitious and calculating Valix,demands Viara’s execution. They view her as a virus, a rot that will sever their connection to the Moon Goddess. They initiate the Silver Trial, a lethal purification rite intended to incinerate Viara’s occultic shadows. ​But Viara doesn't burn. She consumes. ​In a display of terrifying power, she hijacks the lunar fire, ascending into a state of primordial dominance that leaves the Silver Reach in ruins. However, this ascension comes at a harrowing price: The Toxic Bond. Viara’s Solar Pulse is a vacuum; it instinctively siphons the life-force of the strongest Alpha nearby to sustain itself. Every second Davic spends in her presence, he is being drained, his "Ultimate" strength slowly withering to keep her fire alive. ​The Revelation: The Sinking Vault and the First Alpha ​Driven into the Nameless Wastes by the High Inquisitor and the Iron Guard, Viara and a fading Davic are led by Viara’s father toward a secret buried for centuries. The "Horrific Incident" 800 years ago is revealed not as a simple war, but as a systemic betrayal. Viara’s father, the keeper of the ancient maps, had traded the location of the First Alpha’s Tomb to the Goddess to spare Viara’s soul. ​The Moon Goddess didn't kill the First Alpha—the progenitor of all wolves. She turned him into a Living Battery, entombed in the Sinking Vault, using his raw essence to stabilize the Nine Territories. Viara is the only key capable of unlocking the tomb, and Davic is the only lock capable of surviving the transition. ​The Stakes: Revolution of the Void ​As the sarcophagus opens and the First Alpha begins to stir, the world stands on the brink of a total inversion. Viara must choose between the father who betrayed her heritage to save her life, and the ancestors who want to use her

The night before the marking ceremony, I sat alone on the balcony of the bridal chamber. The full moon hung high in the sky, its silvery light spilling over the engagement ring on my ring finger. The entire city of Moon Shadow lay asleep beneath the night sky, and Selena, the wolf spirit within me, was unusually still. She had been silent for three days. I clutched my mobile phone, staring at the all-too-familiar name on the screen. Alpha Damian. Just then, a powerful werewolf scent suddenly appeared within my senses. Right here in the corridor of this building. It’s Alpha Damian and his pack of ruffians. They were placing bets. My hearing could pierce through three walls as I listened to them egging Alpha Damian on to ‘have a bit of fun with that silly woman’. I should have hung up. But Selena stirred suddenly from the depths of her soul, her silver eyes lifting slightly from their slumber. She said, “Answer it.” Without a second thought, I pressed the call button. The call was answered almost immediately. The laughter on the other end died down for a moment, and then I heard a voice trying to sound older than it was. It was unmistakably Alpha Damian. “Hello?” My heart skipped a beat, yet for some reason, I walked straight into the trap he had set. “You… are you the thirty-eight-year-old Alpha Damian?” I heard myself ask, my voice carrying a tremor I couldn’t even understand myself. “Mm.” He replied casually. I grew excited, with the same eagerness as any werewolf about to become a Luna. “Doesn’t that mean we’ve been marked to each other for years? Do you have children? Is your life happy and fulfilling?” There was a moment’s silence across from me. That silence was like a wolf’s claw, silently slashing across my throat. Then he said, “We’d better not go through with this marriage.” “On the very night of our ceremony, I slept with your best friend. I’ve kept in touch with her ever since.” “We had a child. And you developed depression, yet you refused to end our bond, driving yourself into a psychiatric ward.” “Serena, I don’t want to see you suffer like that. So please, don’t be my partner.” I stood on the balcony, the moonlight stretching my shadow out long, like a discarded silver thread. “Is that so?” My voice was so soft it was barely audible. Serena let out a low, muffled sob deep within my mind. It was a warning, her final attempt to rouse me. “Then I’ll break up with him.” No sooner had I spoken than a burst of raucous laughter erupted from the other end of the line. “Hahaha! She actually believed you were thirty-eight-year-old Alpha Damian and was really going to leave you! How hilarious!” “What a stupid, clueless, gullible wolf! It’s so obvious, yet you still don’t realise this is just a bet we’ve made!” I stood there, frozen. Each word felt like a silver blade piercing my heart. Then I heard Alpha Damian’s voice again, his tone indulgent and gentle. But that tenderness wasn’t meant for me. “So I’ve won this time, Sophia. Will you marry me now?” Sophia. The Beta woman I regarded as a sister. The one for whom I’d used my own pocket money to secure her first job at the Crescent Council, and whom I’d even risked my life to protect when we were attacked by a Rogue out in the wild. Selena let out a piercing, wailing cry in my mind. Finally, amidst that piercing shriek, I came fully to my senses.
