Ten years into the future, people of Earth have become advanced in technology. However, tragedy strikes again, killing millions all over the world. With no vaccine or cure, scientists sought other methods. A well-known scientist, Dayo Johnson, creates the Personifid in Nigeria, providing a chance to live forever in an artificial body. Meanwhile, something much darker is at work. A failed experiment of an old project is on the loose, killing people. Perhaps the New World is not as perfect as it seems.

Some monsters wear crowns. Others earn the title. Celeste Blackwood has spent her entire life preparing to become the perfect Luna. Raised inside the gilded walls of Blackwood Estate, she knows obedience is survival. Her future has already been decided—a political marriage to Julius Blackwood, a brilliant yet merciless heir who sees her not as a bride, but as the final piece in his terrifying experiments. On the day she is delivered to her destiny, fate intervenes. A brutal ambush leaves her convoy in ruins, and from the blood-soaked wreckage emerges the man whispered about in every nightmare. Kaelen. The Butcher. Feared as the ruthless Alpha of the Rogues, Kaelen is a warrior whose name sends powerful packs into hiding. He should have left Celeste to die. Instead, he carries her into the Dead Zone—a lawless land where survival is earned in blood and loyalty is worth more than life itself. As Celeste is drawn deeper into the Rogue rebellion, she uncovers a truth that changes everything. She isn't an ordinary Alpha's daughter. Her bloodline belongs to an ancient race believed to have vanished centuries ago—the legendary Silver Wolf. Now, the man she was promised to wants her as the key to creating an unstoppable empire. The man she was taught to fear will burn the world to keep her alive. With kingdoms on the brink of war, ancient secrets awakening, and destiny demanding its price, Celeste must embrace the beast sleeping inside her before darkness consumes every pack. Because the greatest threat isn't the Butcher... It's the Bride.

What if humanity’s cruelest monster is the only one who can save you? In the toxic slums of Sector 4—far beneath the glittering glass domes of the elite city—there is only one rule: keep a low profile and stay alive. Jada is a master of survival. From the scraps discarded by the upper class, she builds everything she needs to exist in this merciless world. But during a brutal raid by the ruling Consortium, her identity scanner suddenly flashes a blood-red alarm. The verdict is neither prison nor death. It is: Sector Omega. Sector Omega is a myth born of whispered nightmares. It is the Consortium’s deepest underground laboratory, where the authorities breed genetically mutated supersoldiers. Jada is thrown into a pitch-black cell as a "calming companion" for the most dangerous experiment of all: Subject Zero. He calls himself Kael, and he is the Apex. An unstoppable beast, engineered for war in the toxic outer world—a nightmare of muscle, claws, and blinding rage. Every woman sent into this cell before Jada never left it alive. Yet, when the monster attacks from the shadows and lunges at her, he suddenly halts. The beast catches a scent. In the rebellious scavenger, Kael sees no prey—he recognizes his destined mate. With a single, guttural "Mine," Jada’s fate changes forever. Certain death transforms into a perilous alliance. Kael vows to protect his mate with his life, while Jada discovers the man hidden beneath the monster. To escape the cruel Consortium, they must ignite a bloody rebellion together—one that will shake the dystopian world beneath the dome to its very foundations. For an Apex does not share. Tropes: Sci-Fi Dystopia, Werewolf Romance, Fated Mates, Touch Her and You Die.

The day I got fired, I received a trial pass from an AI cosmetic clinic. It required neither surgery nor recovery time, yet it could deliver a flawless celebrity face overnight. But there was a catch. The face only lasted seven days after the complimentary trial. To keep it, I signed a contract to become the actress' body double, trading my time, identity, and freedom for another week of beauty. As the years passed, I kept paying the price to maintain a face that wasn't mine until one day, I realized I no longer wanted to live in someone else's shadow.

A high-powered CEO of a biotech firm is secretly the leader of an urban pack, using his resources to find a "cure" for the painful transformations. He meets his match in a rival CEO—a sharp, uncompromising woman who is actually a descendant of a legendary line of hunters. They are forced into a joint venture that requires them to spend weeks together in a high-security penthouse. As the full moon approaches, the corporate mask slips, and they have to decide if they are natural enemies or soulmates.

In the third year after my death, the one who remained faithfully by my wife's side was still the bionic robot I had painstakingly designed. It looked exactly like me and carried within it every detail of my mannerisms, speech, and habits. The only difference was that it never lost its temper with her. Because of that, my wife never sensed anything amiss. Yet each night, she brought home a different man, deliberately testing "me," desperate to see the wild jealousy and rage I once wore so vividly. Then, one day, her childhood sweetheart and first love, shoved "me" off the balcony. It was only then, in her horror, that my wife realized… "I" didn't bleed.
