Blood & Blossoms

Blood & Blossoms

"In the world of the mafia, loyalty is a myth, and a debt of blood is the only currency that matters." Elena Lombardi was the crown jewel of the second most powerful crime family in Milan. Known as the "Porcelain Princess," she lived a life of sheltered luxury—until the night the bullets flew and the screams began. In a single, bloody coup, her father is assassinated, her home is reduced to ashes, and her status is stripped away. With a target on her back and the assassins closing in, Elena is forced to flee to the one place she was always told to avoid: The Fortress of the Raven. Dante Moretti is the man who haunts the underworld’s nightmares. Cold, calculated, and lethally beautiful, he is the Lombardi family’s sworn enemy. He has every reason to kill Elena, to finish what the assassins started and erase the Lombardi name forever. But Elena carries a secret—a leverage that could either clear Dante’s name or destroy his empire. Caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse, Elena finds herself trapped in Dante’s world. He is her protector, her captor, and her greatest temptation. As they navigate a landscape of betrayal and shifting alliances, the line between hate and desire begins to blur. He took her in to use her as a pawn. She stayed to find her revenge. But in a house built on secrets, love is the most dangerous weapon of all. When the truth behind her father’s death is finally revealed, will Elena choose the family legacy she was born into, or the monster who taught her how to survive?

Heroes. Icons of hope. Defenders of the weak. They are not bound by duty, nor are they compelled by law. And yet, they rise. They stand between chaos and order, not because they must, but because they choose to. That choice—the willingness to fight for others—is what makes them more than just people with powers. It makes them legends. Every child dreams of being one. Of soaring through the skies, of standing tall against the forces of evil, of hearing their name chanted by the people they save. To be strong. To be admired. To matter. Kevin Trades once shared that dream. But dreams are fragile things. The cold wind howled past his ears as he plummeted. The night sky stretched above him, a canvas of stars indifferent to the boy who had just been thrown from a rooftop. The world around him blurred, city lights twisting into streaks of yellow and white. His body twisted midair, arms flailing as he reached for anything—something—to stop his fall. But there was nothing. Only gravity’s cruel embrace pulling him down, faster and faster. Then—impact. Pain exploded through his body. He hit the pavement hard, his vision flashing white before turning to darkness. For a moment, there was nothing but silence. The world felt distant, like a bad dream he couldn’t wake from. Then, the taste of metal filled his mouth. A weak cough escaped his lips, splattering liquid onto the cold concrete beneath him. He forced his eyes open, the dim glow of a nearby streetlight illuminating the substance pooling by his face. It wasn’t red. Blue. A deep, rich blue, glistening under the light like liquid sapphire. Kevin’s breath hitched. His trembling fingers reached out, touching the unnatural blood oozing from his lips. It was real. Something inside him stirred. A realization. A possibility. Maybe… just maybe… He could become a hero.

Farm System, Baby, and a Fortune: My '70s Divorce

Farm System, Baby, and a Fortune: My '70s Divorce

[Irresistible MC + Farming & Entrepreneurship + Strong Female Lead + Cute Baby + Love Rivalry + Farming System + Male Competition] Deng Yuyuan wakes up to find she has transmigrated into a period novel about a "pampered group darling" — as the biological mother of the vicious female villain. The female villain has a biased grandmother, a mooching uncle and his family, a blindly filial father, and a spineless mother. She was a small-time thief as a child. As an adult, she committed every kind of evil — constantly framing the female lead — and ultimately met a miserable end. The female lead is the only daughter in another family, doted on by her older brothers. The villain targeted her out of pure jealousy. And now, Deng Yuyuan has become that villain's cowardly mother — and the villain herself is currently just an ugly, wrinkly-faced infant. The blindly filial father loves his wife, but gives all the good things to his own mother. He says to his starving wife and daughter: "Xiao Yuan, come drink some water. I specially heated it for you." Deng Yuyuan looks at her own bony frame and her tiny child — and decides to get a divorce. Goodbye, useless husband. She's going to raise this little cub with an abundance of money and love. No way she'll go astray this time. Lost one husband, gained a crowd of suitors. A beautiful sent-down youth coveted by many — she knows some self-defense and burns the midnight oil studying. With the reinstatement of the college entrance exams, she takes her child toward a much wider world. Riding the wave of the times, Deng Yuyuan works her way up to become a gaming tycoon and a cutting-edge scientist... Except — why are so many men fighting to be her cub's stepfather?
