•Deception•

In the secretive realm of the mafia underworld, a formidable group known as "The Dark Wind" reigns supreme. Comprising four exceptionally powerful women, they operate as a force to be reckoned with, commanding respect and fear. Their immense influence and sprawling business enterprises have garnered them worldwide recognition, yet their true identities remain an enigma to all but their closest confidantes. Behind their veil of legitimacy, The Dark Wind finds themselves targeted by a rival faction determined to dismantle their empire. Nursing deep wounds inflicted by past clashes, the indomitable quartet swears a solemn oath of retribution. Their intelligence sources divulge startling revelation-their adversaries, known as "Venom," have taken on new identities as high school students, concealing their true nature beneath the façade of ordinary teenagers. To exact their vengeance, The Dark Wind embarks on a perilous mission, assuming the guises of four seemingly ordinary high school girls. Immersed in the daily trials of teenage life, they infiltrate the lives of unsuspecting students, forming alliances and forging friendships with a seemingly innocent group. But as the bonds deepen, doubts arise-can they truly trust their new companions, or do they harbour their own hidden agendas? Amidst the tangled web of loyalties and deceptions, "Deception" weaves a tale of intrigue and peril, where the line between friend and foe blurs into obscurity. No one, save for the members of The Dark Wind, knows the true identities of this fearsome mafia collective, their unity forged by their shared secrets. As the stakes escalate and time ticks away, "Deception" plunges into a world where loyalties are tested, alliances are shattered, and the desire for revenge sets ablaze a conflict that threatens to consume all. Will The Dark Wind succeed in exposing Venom and reclaim their dominance, or will they succumb to the machinations of a hidden enemy lurking in plain sight?

Kissing Hellfire: Marry Me, Evil Lord

Power comes with a cost... and it was something she was willing to trade her soul for. A few nights before her wedding, Lauren sought a way to break her fourth engagement. Known for her bad reputation as the rebel princess, she was the only lady who had the guts to step foot on the Everston mansion, the house of a notorious warlord, in the middle of the night. She offered him a wicked alliance that the entire kingdom did not see coming: a marriage. A vixen pretending to be a damsel in distress and a man whose crimson eyes screaming for bloodshed. Could something blossom in this treacherous dance of lies and deception? -- "Are you upset?" She eyed him sharply. "Should I be honored that I got tricked by you, milord?" He drank the remaining wine in his glass with one gulp and put it on the wooden table. He stepped in front of her. His hand was on the rail on her side while his other hand grabbed her glass and finished her wine before putting it down. The way his Adam's apple moved with his every violent gulp made her feel a tickling heat around her nape. When he brought his attention back to her, he licked his lips to wipe off the trace of wine. "How shall I make it up to you then?" he asked with his deep voice, like a seductive devil asking his victim how she would like to be killed. Dangerous yet… enthralling. - Note: This is a dark fantasy-romance genre with a lot of gore, family feuds, steamy scenes, twists and turns, and other explicit content (no rape) that will rile you up and might give you a heart attack so basically this is not for soft-hearted ones, so read at your own risk!

"Master Chi, how much is this Ghost Ward Talisman? I want 10 of them!" "Master Chi, can you help me calculate my family's luck in passing? Money is not a problem." People’s eyes glow as they look at Chi Shuyan collecting excessive amounts of money. To look so sage-like even when doing a tacky task of collecting money, she's indeed an erudite expert.

Blaze Deception: A Villain in a Hero's Disguise

All I wanted was a simple life: love, shelter, food, my hobby of motorcycling. But fate granted me wealth and power, shackling my freedom. Forced into a life of social expectations and heir training, I obeyed for my family's honor and my love for them as Honor and Pride were unshaken pillars of my family. Despite not being strict, they didn't mess around with traditions. To me, they were my heroes, pillars of kindness. Yet the very target of their kindness, the people they saved and protected, became the ones who burned them to their death. Betrayal tore them from me, shattering the good heart they cultivated in me and plunging me into darkness. Only one question left: What do I do!? Revenge!! That's what my heart shouted at me as my heart turned cold. Can I reclaim the heroism they instilled in me, or am I destined to become the villain that grew within me? __________ This novel might have slower or faster pacing in some places. The first volume focuses more on the MC's backstory. The villain's acts and deceptions will be in the second volume. Regarding romance, I haven't added a tag yet. Let's see how the story goes and whether there's a need for romance. I'm still new to writing, so please bear with me. Tell me your suggestions via comments.
