In a land ruled by bloodlines and bound by prophecy, love was the one thing forbidden. Gomen, heir to a blood-bound lineage, was raised to believe love was a weakness, a beautiful lie that once led to his family's greatest downfall. Rehitt was a flame the world never meant to see burn: exiled by birth, marked by mystery, and hunted by those who feared what she could become. They were never meant to meet. They were never meant to fall. But destiny blinked,and they defied it. Now, kingdoms shake, and the stars themselves tremble as two hearts risk everything: power, tradition, and even their lives for a love that should never have existed. But when fate is broken, something else must fall. Will it be the crown? The prophecy? The world? Or will it be the love that dares to rewrite destiny?

The Love That Defied Fate: Gomen And Rehitt's Forbidden Tale Chapter 1 Gomen's Blood Trail

The drums rolled like thunder across the valley.

Each strike rattled Gomen's chest, heavy as war hammers, loud enough to drown out his own heartbeat. He didn't blink. Didn't shake.Didn't move. His eyes were fixed on the stone pit ahead, a black mouth carved into the earth, waiting to swallow him whole.

The crowd was endless. Men painted in red clay, women with braided hair slicked in oil, children perched on shoulders, their small faces pale with anticipation. Torches burned around the pit, coughing smoke into the cold night. The smell of sweat, iron, and ash clung to the air.

Gomen's hands curled into fists at his sides. He could feel his nails biting into his palm, but the pain grounded him. The taste of copper still lingered on his tongue. He had already bitten through his lip from clenching too hard.

The Blood Trial was no ceremony. It was slaughter.

The elders sat on a raised dais, robes of bone-white linen brushing the platform beneath them. Their faces were stone, carved by time, unforgiving as the gods they claimed to serve. At the center sat the High Warden, Gomen's father, eyes colder than the blade resting across his knees.

"Step forward," the Warden's voice rang, steady and merciless.

Gomen obeyed. His boots hit the cracked earth with deliberate weight. Each step felt like a chain dragging him closer to fate. He knew every gaze was locked on him. Some burned with hunger, others with hate. He was heir, but not loved. He was feared.

The pit opened wide before him. From below came a sound like stones grinding together, followed by a guttural snarl. The beast was awake.

Gomen's jaw tightened.

The chains rattled as the gate below screeched open. And then it came.

A blur of muscle and black fur, eyes gleaming like molten coals. Its roar split the night, loud enough to shake the torches. The beast lunged, slamming against the stone wall, teeth snapping, claws raking sparks.

The crowd roared in answer, half in terror, half in hunger for blood.

Gomen did not flinch.

He pulled the blade from his belt. A short sword, its edge chipped from countless rites before him. A weapon meant not for victory, but for survival.

The beast's chains snapped free.

It charged.

The ground shook beneath its weight, paws pounding the stone, saliva flinging from its jaws. Its breath was hot, foul, filled with the stench of rot and old kills.

Gomen moved.

He rolled to the side just as its claws ripped into the dirt where he had stood. Dust sprayed up, stinging his eyes. The beast spun with unnatural speed, growling low, teeth glinting under torchlight.

For a moment, time slowed.

The crowd faded. The drums became a distant echo. There was only the pit, the beast, and his own breath,ragged but controlled.

This was not about strength. It was about ruthlessness. About how much blood he was willing to spill.

The beast lunged again, jaws gaping. Gomen ducked low, slamming his shoulder into its ribs. The impact sent him staggering back, bones rattling, but it gave him an opening. He slashed upward. The blade tore through flesh, and hot blood sprayed across his face.

The beast shrieked.

It whipped its massive head around, snapping at him. Teeth grazed his arm, ripping through leather. Pain flashed white-hot, but he didn't scream. He couldn't. Weakness was death.

He pressed forward, hacking at its shoulder. The sword carved deep, but the beast's fury was unbroken. It struck with its paw, claws slicing across his chest. The blow knocked him off his feet, air ripping from his lungs as his back slammed against stone.

The crowd roared louder. Some shouted his name, others cried for the beast to finish him.

Blood soaked his tunic. His chest burned. He forced himself up, every muscle trembling. His father's voice echoed in his mind; An heir does not beg. An heir does not break.

The beast circled, breathing heavy, black blood dripping onto the dirt.

Gomen wiped the blood from his mouth with the back of his hand. His grip on the sword was slick with sweat and gore. His body screamed to stop. But his eyes,burned colder than steel.

The beast came again.

This time he didn't dodge. He stepped into its charge, teeth clenched, sword raised. Its jaws clamped around the blade, biting down with enough force to shake his arms to the bone. He felt the steel buckle, but he didn't let go.

He shoved forward, jamming the broken edge deeper, pushing until the beast's growl turned to a strangled cry. It thrashed, shaking its massive head, dragging him with it. His boots skidded across the stone, knees nearly buckling. Still he pushed.

With a loud,deep cry, he wrenched the blade free and drove it upward through the beast's throat.

The sound was sickening.

The creature jerked, spasmed, then collapsed, the ground shuddering as its weight hit the earth. Blood pooled, thick and steaming, soaking into the cracks beneath him.

Silence.

The crowd frozed. The drums stopped. Even the torches seemed to flicker lower.

Gomen stood above the beast, chest heaving, face painted red with its blood. He didn't lift his sword in triumph. He didn't shout. He only stared down at the carcass, his eyes hollow, his mouth set in a hard line.

Cold. Ruthless. Untouched by mercy.

The silence shattered into a roar. Cheers and howls shook the air. His name echoed from the walls of the pit. "Gomen! Gomen! Gomen!"

He looked up. His father's face was unreadable. Not pride. Not relief. Just that same relentless stare, as if victory had been expected all along.

The elders rose to their feet, raising their staff in solemn rhythm. The ritual words began to spill from their lips, ancient chants that bound his blood to the throne.

But Gomen barely heard them.

Because beyond the crowd, high on the stone ridge, stood a figure cloaked in black. Unmoving. Watching.

Unlike the others, they did not cheer. They did not chant.

They only raised a pale hand, slow and deliberate, pointing directly at him.

And for the first time that night, a shiver ran down Gomen's spine.

Betrayed Bride: Claimed By The Brother

Reilly Mcardle

I arrived at the hotel with Julian's favorite takeout, ready to surprise my fiancé before our big merger. But the moment I swiped the keycard, the silence of the hallway felt heavy and wrong. Inside, a red-soled stiletto lay on the marble floor-the same one I'd watched my best friend Lila try on at Saks last week. Through the cracked bedroom door, I watched Julian's back arch as Lila looked me straight in the eye and smiled, wrapping her legs tighter around him to mock my heartbreak. I fled to the penthouse to hide, only to find Grafton, Julian's "crippled" brother, waiting in the dark. To my horror, the man who was supposed to be paralyzed stood up from his wheelchair, gripped my chin with cold fingers, and forced me to sign a contract that gave him control of my family's shares. He knew about my mother's secret medical bills and used them to buy my silence, effectively turning my life into a calculated game of corporate chess. The betrayal tasted like acid, and the injustice of it all burned in my throat. My fiancé was a liar, my best friend was a thief, and the man now controlling my fate was a predator who had been faking his disability for years. I couldn't understand how everyone I trusted had turned out to be a monster. I was trapped between a man who cheated on me and a man who wanted to own me, with no way out and no one to turn to. But when Julian came looking for me, Grafton didn't hide; he stood tall, looming over me with a possessive glint in his eyes. "Help me destroy Julian," I rasped, realizing that to survive the Faulkner men, I had to become the most dangerous player of them all.

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."
