THE UNBROKEN

THE UNBROKEN Gothic Romance • Spiritual Rebellion • Fantasy Horror VOLUME 1: Elena Rosaria was born in chains. Branded by the Church of Saintess Yidali, betrayed by her own blood, and forced to survive in the shadows of an empire that hunts her kind. But then her life collides with Viscount Seamus Matteo- a brooding heir with a taste for danger and a heart drawn to her fire. Their connection sparks a forbidden passion that defies the Church’s rule. As war brews between the old faith and a rising resistance, Elena must reckon with a violent past, prophetic visions, and the price of power. Seamus would burn the world to protect her. But it is Niegal Matteo, his exiled uncle and a gifted healer, who may hold the key to not only Elena’s survival, but the fate of magic itself. In a land of holy inquisitions, blood-bound magic, and saints who are not what they seem, three haunted souls must choose: surrender to the roles they were born into… or become something unbroken. VOLUME 2: Elena and Niegal Matteo were more than happy to live in the bayous of Marisiana as political heads of the Resistance against the Church of Saintess Yidali. With the full backing of the United Territories and the Coabey Coalition, they planned on raising their beloved daughter, Esperanza, to practice her mother’s storm magic as a divine child of the Storm and Lion. But when trouble finds them from across the sea, in the ancestral lands of the Matteo’s, Veracchia, Elena and Niegal must race against time, and the Church, to save their family from a fate worse then death. Can love survive the aftermath of war? Can they survive the truth of the Matteo bloodline, even if it costs them everything? VOLUME 3: Years after the events of Volume 2, the vessels of Guabancex and El León Negro reckon with the death of the Behike. Niegal faces increasingly disturbing visions and a god who grows more restless and wrathful by the day, and Elena contends with the public increasingly demanding the goddess within to become something she could never be. When a mysterious stranger arrives and triggers something dangerous in Esperanza, the family must travel to rescue her from the clutches of a dangerous cult who wants nothing more than to make the divine child their Queen. Elena and Niegal face their greatest challenge yet. His wrath pushes her away, and the kindness of a stranger saved by the compulsion of Guabancex makes Elena question everything they’ve built. Can love survive divine wrath and destiny? For a family of magic and fate, nothing could ever come easy.

Candle Eyed Long Night

Every villain here was once a broken hero’s child; every villain, once tender enough to be broken. They rose to protect, yet destroyed what they loved with trembling hands. Love itself became the blade softly pressed to the throat, cutting slow as devotion turned to curse. In the hush between vows and betrayal, power and longing entwined— a bond so deep it rotted every soul it touched. Each tale begins gently, with hope cupped in trembling palms. But darkness follows in the wake of every choice, and every whispered vow carries a blade at the throat. The heroes are no saints; the villains no monsters. Only broken children, grown into creatures of legend, destined to tear down and rebuild their world—again and again. This is no garden of saints or demons—only burning kings and bruised hearts. Where every promise bruises, every silence poisons, and every legend must bleed before it lives. A psychological dark fantasy where love battles madness, desire hides danger, and the line between victim and villain disappears. Genres: Dark Fantasy • Psychological • Supernatural • Emotional BL • Super slow burn • Mixed culture (mainly Chinese & Japanese * but you'll mostly see Chinese themes *) • Worldwide (Warning: Mature themes, trauma, and sensual tension. Not your typical BL.) — This is not a story about lust. It is about scars, soul ties, and dangerous longing. Expect hurt, healing, hauntingly beautiful. “Eyes talk louder than the tongue.” — the untamed soul Eyes “Who do I call black and white... when both hide each other beneath?” — The white masked as black “After raising you hidden inside this Baiyun and carrying the weight of this crown ribbon... this is what you return to me as a father?” — The Golden Crown Ribbon Also an announcement : from now on this novel is called " Candle-Eyed Long Night " not " Eyes of broken lilies " ◇ Author & Main Character’s words: “Don’t hold me if you know you won’t hold me forever.” Because sometimes, letting go hurts even more than never holding at all. When you let go, it’s not just the body that falls—but the heart that shatters. If you truly choose to stay, then stay… And I promise I’ll stay by your side too—even if I sometimes disappear for days or years because of my real life struggles. I will always remember every silent love you give me now… and in the future—just as the big authors before me, like MXTX, once did. But if not—kindly feel and deeply think before stepping in… Because this isn’t just a hobby for me as it may be for others. It’s my heart..my cause of Euphoria ♡

Married To The Mad Vampire Lord

His lips hovered near her ear, his voice a dark whisper against her skin. "You may fear me, little bride, but I will teach your body to crave me… to need me, until I am all you ever want." --- Belle was never meant to be the bride. But when her parents cried to her about how her beautiful sister could not be married to such a man, she was forced to take her sister’s place. To prevent war between the two worlds of humans and vampires, the kings decided to sign a peace treaty with a marriage, but the only man they could offer for this marriage was a vampire said to be mad and completely heartless. When they said heartless, they meant really heartless, but Belle, being a naive girl her whole life, had no idea what she was stepping into by agreeing to this marriage. At first, he appeared innocent, a man completely opposite to all the rumors around him, until she slowly began to realize every single thing said about the mad vampire was true, or perhaps even worse! He was a man who walked in the path of darkness. He knew no light and showed no mercy, even to those who were not his enemies. He had no heart to love, no emotions but dark ones to feel for anything or anyone. But all of a sudden, when he set his eyes on her, he decided he wanted to keep her, and Belle's naive world began to take a different turn because the mad vampire was hellbent on tainting her innocent soul. Expect "Now, can we forget this happened and enjoy the night?" He arched an amused brow at her, making Belle's heart drop to her stomach as she recalled the so-called wedding night. She hurriedly pulled away from him, her face flaming with embarrassment. From everything she had heard about this night, she was not ready to experience it with this man. The women whispering about it in Mr. Marchant's shop had said one would hate their husband's presence after it and be disgusted by the act. It was not an act meant for pleasure for any woman but torture. Now that she realized her husband would do the same with her, she swallowed hard and nervously clutched her dress. "I...I am not feeling well, My Lord, I—" "Rohan," he cut her off with a tone of amusement. "Use my name when you address me, sweetheart. You looked quite energetic when you tried to go after the ring for someone who isn't feeling well, but," he sighed softly, "I've always been a generous man. I won't let you stress yourself tonight." Belle began to sigh in relief and smile in her mind that he wouldn't push her for the wedding night ceremony. She was even about to part her lips and agree that he was indeed generous and even offer him a thank you when he continued to speak, causing the momentary relief to be replaced by dread. "I will pamper you tonight, and you won’t have to lift a hand. I will give you all the pleasure since you are feeling unwell. Take it as the first lesson in my plan to make you forget love and welcome lust." "...!" "Lie on the bed for me, Isa." Belle felt her throat go dry at that strict command. "I...I..." She began but could not find any words to say to make him spare her tonight. What had she got herself into? Belle thought as a pit seemed to form in her stomach, a deep, gnawing dread. "Do you need me to carry you to the bed, or would you rather walk there yourself?" Rohan questioned with dark mirth in his voice and eyes as he watched her like a hawk. He could tell she was nervous, but what to do? She had brought herself into his world. Belle began to walk slowly to the bed at a snail’s pace, as if delaying it would help prevent the dreadful act from happening tonight. She could feel him following closely behind her. When she reached the bed, she used her shaky hands to move the drapes aside and carefully sat at the edge of it, her hands folded nervously on her lap. She felt his piercing gaze on her, but she dared not look up at him. "Lie down," he ordered softly. MATURE CONTENT, NO RAPE!!

Guide To Train My Beast Husbands

“Let me lick it clean,” said Xie Daiyu as he looked at Ruan Chanchan’s wound. Hearing his suggestion, Ruan Chanchan paused and looked at the mer in shock. She pursed her lips and said to him, “You are kidding me. Aren’t you?” “Why do you think I am joking?” The mer asked with a tilt of his head. Ruan Chanchan gritted her teeth and said, “Because the wound is not somewhere you can just lick me.” “What's the matter?” Xie Daiyu asked with an innocent expression, even though his lips were about to curl in a smirk. “You are a beast woman, and I am a beast mer… this is nothing.” He pushed Ruan Chanchan down on the ground, his fingers skimming against her inner thigh. “It will be over in a matter of seconds.” Like hell it did! She ended up becoming the mother of his child. ** “This is not how you are supposed to do it.” With a frown, Rong Xian stared at her. The mer was usually silent, but today he was unusually chatty. Ruan Chanchan rolled her eyes while peering out of a boulder. She was staring at the sea while trying to look for the prince of the Basilosauruses. Her eyes kept flickering as she said to the mer behind her, “I need to talk with the prince, no matter what.” “Oh, and what do you want to talk to him about?” “Just about the salt trade.” “And what are you going to offer him in return?” the mer asked with a tilt of his head. Ruan Chanchan frowned at his question. She turned to look at him before saying, “What can I offer? At most, we can discuss some kind of cooperation.” Rong Xian licked his lips as he moved forward. He caught hold of the woman and turned her around as he pressed her against the boulder. “I don’t know about cooperation, but we can discuss copulation. What do you say, Miss Ruan? Do you want this prince to give you a litter of little basilosauruses?” ** “You need to put more strength into it,” said Liang Feng. His brows were furrowed as he looked at the weak woman who was trying to pull the fang out of her arm. Ruan Chanchan frowned and scowled at the mer. She said to him, “Do you think that it's so easy?! Why don’t you do it if you think that it's that easy?” The mer sighed and crouched down. He reached out and caught Ruan Chanchan’s arm in his hands and, without waiting for the woman to say anything else, he pulled the fang out of her arm. “AHHH—urk!” Ruan Chanchan’s scream came to a sudden halt when the mer fed her a piece of flame fruit, which was sweet and delicious. “Feeling alright?” Liang Feng asked with a tilt of his head. Ruan Chanchan nodded, and the mer smiled. “Good girl.” ** Kaboom! “You have to be kidding me!” That's how Ruan Chanchan felt after landing in a prehistoric world where not only did a gender other than men and women exist, but on top of that, these people could turn into beastmen! The second she arrived, Ruan Chanchan was almost squashed to death — but somehow she managed to escape. Don’t ask her how she did it; Ruan Chanchan still had some ptsd due to that incident. But if that was not bad enough, the world where she landed was also about to end. Great. Let the world know that Ruan Chanchan had offended some great immortal somewhere. Now, if she wanted to survive, then not only did she have to teach these beastmen how to farm, cook and clean themselves—You don’t want to get her started on how dirty these beastmen could be without knowing how to clean their hands and shower every day. And raw meat—yuck. Easy? Not! Not only did she transmigrate into the body of a fool, but she also ended up becoming the only beast woman who had no beast form. With a broken beast nucleus, Ruan Chanchan couldn’t find a single person who would willingly trust her. Fortunately, she had a supermarket system with her. Watch her use cotton balls and antiseptic ointments to stop the minor bleeding of the beastmen and use common antiparasitic medications to save a dying beast cub.
