m Description: Elric Thorne always believed he was destined for greatness-mainly because a talking goat once told him so. Armed with an ancient prophecy he definitely misinterpreted, a spellbook he can barely read, and a magical sword with better comedic timing than combat skills, Elric sets out to save the kingdom of Virelia from a looming darkness. What he didn't expect was to be roped into a political scandal involving a runaway princess who moonlights as a thief, a shape-shifting fox spirit with a hoarding problem, and a rival hero who might actually be the Chosen One. Along the way, Elric finds himself at the heart of a mystery involving vanishing cities, cursed love letters, and a forgotten war locked away in time. Between dodging assassins, accidentally summoning gelatinous monsters, and falling in love with someone he's technically supposed to betray, Elric realizes heroism is a lot messier-and funnier-than the bards make it sound.

The Enchanted Mishaps of Elric Thorne Chapter 1 1. Chapter 1:The Goat and the Drunken Prophecy

Chapter 1: The Goat, the Spellbook, and the Drunken Prophecy

Elric Thorne had three core beliefs:He was destined for greatness.

Magic was mostly about confidence and hand gestures.

Talking to goats in taverns was a perfectly valid way to interpret prophecy.

He wasn't exactly the most promising wizard in the village of Thistlewhip. In fact, he wasn't even technically a wizard. He'd flunked out of the Royal Academy of Arcane Arts after setting the Dean's wig on fire during a demonstration on "controlled combustion." Since then, his magical resume included: summoning frogs into people's ale mugs, enchanting a pair of boots to sprint off mid-walk, and accidentally marrying a broom.

So when the goat-smelling vaguely of ale and existential dread-leaned across the tavern table and bleated, "You are the One, Elric Thorne," he believed it. Partly because the goat had glowing red eyes. Mostly because he really wanted it to be true.

"Did anyone else see that?" Elric asked the room, which mostly responded with disinterest, grumbling, and one peasant throwing up in a bucket.

Thus began the greatest adventure of his life. And possibly the dumbest.

The next morning, Elric stood outside his cottage with his sword, his boots (now legally single), and a spellbook titled "Practical Prophecy: How to Save the World Before Breakfast." The book was written in Ancient Vernacular, which Elric could only kind of understand. He assumed that "Ignitium Arcanum!" meant "Summon Breakfast." It did not. It summoned a very angry fire sprite that immediately lit his front door on fire.

By the time he reached the edge of the village, smoke curling behind him like a dramatic exit plume, Elric was ready.

"Where are we going?" asked his sword, who introduced himself earlier that morning with: "Put me down, you idiot!"

"I'm not sure yet," Elric admitted. "But the goat said the world needed saving."

"Oh, well if a goat said it," the sword replied dryly. "Do you often take orders from livestock?"

Elric narrowed his eyes. "Only if they speak with gravitas."

Their first stop was the capital: Ivory Hollow, seat of the High Court, home to at least seventeen kinds of soup, and the place where everything went downhill.

Elric entered the city looking like a confused scarecrow, his cloak billowing, his boots squeaking, and his sword muttering profanity at passersby. He had barely made it two steps into the marketplace when a delicate hand tugged his sleeve.

"You dropped this," said a girl with wide, innocent eyes and a voice like bells. She held out a small, shiny coin.

"I don't-" he began.

She leaned in and whispered, "Play along. You're about to be robbed."

That's when he noticed three burly men surrounding him, eyes locked on his satchel.

"Oh," he said.

"Run?" she suggested.

"Run."

They sprinted through winding alleys, over cabbage carts, and through a chicken coop. Eventually, they dove behind a pile of discarded cloaks in the alley. Elric caught his breath, heart pounding, feathers in his hair.

"I'm Mira," the girl said, grinning. "You owe me a drink."

"Only if you explain how you knew I was being robbed."

"I was robbing you first," she said sweetly.

Elric blinked. His sword sighed. Somewhere in the distance, a goat laughed.

HONEY MULLINS

Six years ago, I was a naive girl sold by my father to the powerful Sanders estate, only to be tossed onto the streets after a brutal assault they labeled "marital infidelity." I fled the country pregnant and broken, hiding from the shadow of a husband I had never even met. Now, I've returned to New York with my triplets to sign the final divorce papers and disappear forever. But Archibald Sanders-the man I was told was a crippled recluse-intercepted us with the cold precision of a predator. He didn't see the woman his family destroyed; he saw a gold-digger who had shamed his name. His security team hunted us to a grimy motel, using tactical force to snatch my children away and drag me to his glass-walled empire. In his office, he loomed over me, demanding a DNA test and threatening to throw me in prison while my babies were lost to the foster system. He was convinced I'd cheated, yet he stared at my sons with a haunting confusion, unable to ignore the stormy blue eyes that were a perfect mirror of his own. I stood there, paralyzed by his scent-the sharp tang of rain and expensive leather that triggered the icy dread of my worst nightmares. How could he accuse me of betrayal when he felt exactly like the monster who had shattered my life in that dark hotel room? "I'll sign anything," I sobbed, "just give me my kids." But the game changed when my five-year-old son hacked the tower's security, holding the skyscraper hostage to save me. In the chaos, a fragile, silent boy-Archibald's secret son-wandered into the room and reached for me as if I were his missing soul. Archibald's face turned to stone as he tore up the agreement and locked the doors. "Until I find out why my son is looking at you like that," he growled, "you aren't going anywhere."

The Cold CEO's Unwanted Genius Wife

The Cold CEO's Unwanted Genius Wife

Meng Xinyu

I stood in the darkest corner of the Pierre Hotel’s ballroom, my cheap polyester dress itching against my skin while my wristband buzzed with a DARPA Priority Red alert. In front of the city’s elite, my fiancé Bryce Calloway took the stage, not to toast our future, but to publicly end our engagement and announce he was with my sister, Chloe. The room turned on me instantly, a hundred pairs of eyes pinning me down with pity and disgust as they physically backed away like I was contagious. When I returned home, my mother shattered a crystal vase at my feet, screaming that I was a humiliation and a "dropout" who didn't deserve a cent of the family fortune. Chloe and Bryce mocked me, laughing when I told them I had a mission with the National Security Agency, convinced I was either a pathological liar or a low-level criminal. They watched in horror as a black, unmarked military helicopter descended on our backyard to extract me, yet they still chose to believe I was being arrested for drug trafficking. They saw a pathetic girl who couldn't even parallel park, never realizing I was Dr. Nova Vance, the lead physicist behind the world's first successful fusion reactor. To secure funding for my research and gain a "fortress" of a name, I signed a thirty-day marriage contract with the arrogant billionaire Roman Knight. He treats me like a fraud, convinced I’m a gold-digger who failed out of college, while I quietly run global energy simulations from his guest bedroom. He has no idea that the "loser" he’s forced to live with is the same anonymous grandmaster who has been ruthlessly crushing him in online strategy games for months. "The contract is active," I told him, looking past his expensive suit. "But don't expect me to be your maid."

Sexy Behind The Mask

Sexy Behind The Mask

Ellie Wynters

She hides behind ugly suits and fake names. He's done trusting women. When they meet in a masked sex club, neither realizes they've been fighting each other across boardroom tables for eighteen months. At Taylor Industries, she's Joy Smith-the frumpy CFO who drowns her curves in shapeless polyester and wearing a wig. At home, she's the forgotten wife of a cheating lawyer who hasn't touched her in so long she's starting to wonder if she's broken. When she finds hot pink lace panties stuffed in her couch cushions...definitely not hers, it's not heartbreak she feels. It's freedom. Grayson Taylor doesn't do relationships anymore. Not after walking in on his actress fiancée with another woman. Now he channels everything into hostile takeovers and board meetings, especially the ones where his overcautious CFO fights him on every goddamn acquisition. Joy Smith is brilliant, infuriating, and funny when he pushes all her buttons. But Honey is tired of being invisible. Tired of never having felt real pleasure. So, when her best friend gives her the details of The Velvet Room-Manhattan's most exclusive masked club-she promises herself just one night. One night to find out if her husband's right, if she really is frigid, or if she's just never been touched by the right hands. She doesn't expect the masked stranger who claims her the second she walks in. Doesn't expect the chemistry that ignites between them, the way he makes her body sing, or the orgasms that leave her shaking. Doesn't expect him to hand her an email address with one command: "Only me. No one else touches you."

My Dad's Bestfriend

My Dad's Bestfriend

Lizzie Writes

18+, strong mature, and sexual content. Sneak peek: "W-what are you doing?" I asked, my breathing getting heavier as his warm fingers inched towards my bikini bottom. "You called me a coward earlier, remember?" He asked, his other hand wrapped around my throat and lips torturingly brushing over mine "So let's see how much you can handle if I break the boundaries." "I haven't said anything wrong," I breathed out, the collision of the heat of our bodies made the wetness between my thighs build more "Oh really?" He hooked my legs around his waist leaving me surprised I opened my mouth to say something but before any sentence could leave my mouth, sliding past my bikini bottom his fingers were there on my bare clit and the next second they thrust inside the very tight hole of mine leaving me to scream. But everything went silent as he pressed his hot lips upon mine just as I had been wanting since the first day I had ever seen him. **** I always knew the things I felt for Jacob Adriano were wrong in so many ways. He was my dad's best friend, totally out of bounds but I couldn't stop wanting him. And once in the event of my dad's destination wedding, I came across him after years...I lost every one of the boundaries I had and surely I planned to make him lose his ones too. After all Jacob Adriano, the sinfully attractive Italian was not unaware of my obsession with him. But little did know that forbidden relationships always bring havoc and demolition.....
