For centuries, the Crimson Dominion Empire has obeyed one sacred law: Every Emperor must take a Queen to rule beside him. But His Imperial Majesty, Lucien Alaric Thornton—the cold, feared, and ruthlessly powerful Vampire Emperor—has sworn never to love again. Not after losing Elisabetha, the only woman his immortal heart ever beat for. Her death torments his nights. Her memory shadows his throne. And Lucien is certain that someone within his own bloodline… played a role in her murder. To preserve political stability, Lucien is forced into an arranged marriage with Princess Samantha—a pampered, sheltered princess who has adored him since childhood. To the Empire, she is the perfect future Queen. To Lucien, she is nothing but duty. Everything changes the night he attends a forbidden slave auction. A trembling human girl is dragged into the light. Her name is Hazel… and she carries the exact face of Elisabetha. One heartbeat. One glance. And the Emperor buys her—shocking the entire Empire and shattering Princess Samantha’s lifelong dream. But Hazel’s presence awakens more than painful memories. Lucien keeps her close only because she resembles the woman he lost… yet without realizing it, he begins to fall for her—quietly, unwillingly, helplessly. Soon, everyone in the palace notices: the way he protects Hazel, the way he favors her, and the way he treats her with a care he never shows even to the future Empress. Princess Samantha sees it too— and the jealousy she has buried for years erupts into something dangerous, possessive, and deadly. Meanwhile, Lucien’s suspicions deepen. Hazel’s arrival stirs old shadows and forgotten truths… including the possibility that his own young stepsister, Princess Celeste, may have been involved in Elisabetha’s death. Thrown into a world of blood-stained politics, forbidden magic, ancient grudges, and royal conspiracies, Hazel soon realizes that her fate is intertwined with the Crimson Dominion in ways she never imagined.

In a world ruled by vengeance, power, and destiny… true love may be the most dangerous secret of all.

In the beginning, a Supreme Entity created a celestial garden that was later moved to Earth Eden. At its center stood the Tree of Life, a divine source that bore fruit only once every two thousand years. Its single fruit offered immortality… and destruction.

The Tree of Life is about to bear fruit again. And when it does the greatest hunt in human history will begin. Only one question remains: Who will find Eden first?

How would a wolf birth a witch and a witch wed the Devil’s Bone? Lucrezia Bathory has lived as an outcast from her pack until married to the rumored Devil’s Incarnate of Dreadwyn. A land built on souls of the dead and the throne of human bones—an ugly creature of the dark with sharp fangs, claws, and a monstrous form—known to eat the flesh of the innocent, and drink the marrow of the wicked. To protect her family and House Bathory, Lucrezia carries the cross as sacrifice to prove her birthright. But who knew the creature wedded wasn't as described in the tome as ‘ugly’ but a Sin destined to lure her astray. A Daydream disguised as a Nightmare, and a Nightmare of many colors. *** EXCERPT “You want to know what I want?” He stepped forward, pinning her gaze deep into his bright hazel eyes, reminding her sanity she just treaded the wrong question. When he drew closer, she stepped back, heart drumming loud that its rhythmic sound replaced the sudden silence sealed with heat, until the back of her legs hit the table behind, taking her weight along its surface. Gods… she was only wearing a silk night gown, and the windows were perfectly closed, hearth warm enough against the cold yet she was burning. “I can’t breathe, Lucreiza,” He pronounced her name like a sinful prayer, and she gulped, her mouth almost hanging from delusion. “I can't breathe because you’re fucking me with your scent. I’m going crazy with every passing second I breathe, and seeing you like this, utterly bare, makes me want to make you beg.” It was so short, but she could feel every power, every restrian, every pleasure, just by words alone. How insane can it drive her, were determined by her reaction. Unknown emotions she has never felt before, emotions that heated and chilled her all at the same time. A gasp escaped her lips when he pressed closer, and her legs parted unconsciously, conceding to his unexpressed demand. Now she was pinned in between the body of a monster. One whom she should fear, but felt… expectation? He leaned in and she stuttered a breath, throwing her head back as his fangs grazed her skin in a manner that’s supposed to make her crawl. Run. But instead, it made her desperate. “You don't know even half of what I want, half of what I need.” At this point, Lucreiza’s mind was a totally mess that nothing else registered apart from what he was doing to her. “I’m not just the monster you should fear, witch. I’m the Devil you should deny,” That was the thing… she couldn’t reject him. Fear him. Stir clear. Run. Nothing else made sense to her apart from the burning flames in her chest, the one she never knew when exactly it transpired. The world seemed to cease when she opened her mouth and uttered the damnation, that even the heavens screamed warning from above. “Y-yes,” she whispered, voice hanging from ecstasy. “M-Make me b-beg,” PS: MATURED CONTENT. #webnovel

WARNING: MATURE CONTENT [18+] An enemy, a punishment, a curse in disguise of blessing. An alpha who simply wants to claim an omega as his. An omega escaping his tragic past, trying to heal the scars that seem to never fade. Synopsis: In a world where Alphas ruled and Omegas were seen as figures of motherhood and love, Ren lived as a Beta. And in a world where humans have mixed with other species such as gods, demons, elves, witches, Ren was a human of pure blood. However, from a young age, he had been able to see what others cannot. A mere glance could kill. A single touch could heal. Born with a cursed blessing—the power to both save and destroy—Ren was bound and raised by the temple, blindfolded and used as a living weapon. For years, they unleashed his power against their greatest enemy: the Ravhara Kingdom, with whom war had raged for centuries. But after a certain incident, Ren ran away from his motherland and sought refuge in the border of the Ravhara Empire, hiding his identity. Disguised as a servant, he began working under the very army he once fought—under their Imperial General, Zayden Sylvaris—as his personal servant under strange circumstances. Ren worked by his side like a ghost. As if he wasn’t there in the first place. Everything was going smoothly… until one night, the general followed the sweet scent of an omega—only to find Ren, his personal attendant, standing there. Him? An Omega in heat? But that couldn’t be. He didn’t any hire Omega, and Betas weren’t supposed to have such a sweet scent. So certainly… he had to be an Omega hiding his identity. And it was the very servant who screamed, “DEMON!” on their first meeting. Zayden becomes consumed with the need to find out the truth. But as desire clashes with hatred, and secrets unravel, one thing becomes dangerously clear: The servant he thought was ordinary, is far more than he appeared. How long can Ren keep his identity buried? And what happens when an Alpha who only wants to claim… meets an omega who was never meant to be touched?
