Protector of the Crown by MandySAuthor

COMPLETED BOOK I was trained to be a weapon for the kingdom. I was forced into servitude to the King after my family was ripped from me. My new life was covered in the blood of my family...and now I had to protect the royal family who ordered my parents' death. They're all monsters, except for him...he was my charge and as much as I wanted to hate him, the prince was nothing like his vicious father. He was a warm light in my cold and dark world. I was supposed to be controlled, cold, calculating and deadly, but he made me crave freedom, warmth and all the things I thought died with my family. I no longer knew my path...but I knew it led to him. * Don't hesitate to let me know what you think of my book or if you see grammatical errors/plot holes! *16+ is recommended...sex is implied but not described (I came up with that little rhyme while I was brushing my teeth this morning!) and there are scenes of violence.

The Art Of Getting Rich Again by Vissius

She had it all-money, power, luxury. A brilliant businesswoman at the peak of success, she lived in a world where intelligence and cunning ruled. But in the blink of an eye, everything was taken from her. Struck by lightning and thrown into an unfamiliar medieval fantasy world, she wakes up with nothing. No wealth, no connections, no mana-not even a noble title. Just a sharp mind, a relentless drive, and a burning desire to reclaim the status she once had. In this new world where power is determined by bloodline, magic, and strength, she must outwit corrupt nobles, manipulate guilds, negotiate with criminals, and navigate a world filled with hidden dangers. Along the way, she gathers a small but loyal group of allies-a cold-hearted fallen noble, a thick-headed warrior, a skeptical scholar, and a seductive spy. With no magic of her own, she must use business, strategy, and deception to rise above the system. The world is against her, but she doesn't care. Because in the end, wealth isn't about magic or bloodline. It's about who plays the game better. And she intends to win.

The Warrior Of The Magic by Surya_SK

From the time she could remember, all she had known is the scene of the evolving world of nothing less the extraordinary. The world she was in, had captivated herself to be put in hold and her past was to be unrevealed because her homeland was already going through much; indescribable events ongoing, uninvited catastrophes, webs of lies, unexplainable mythical fables and more fantastical magic than she could compete with did arrive. She tries to accomplish the seemingly impossible challenges showered by the fate and she uncovers secrets that could change everything. What if revealing her identity means destroying the only home she's known? When she embarks to overcome the dilemma with a lad of supernatural capabilities, fortunately or unfortunately she is keen in denying her heart for him. Hope was diminishing as the land was to be saved from the rising apocalypse and only the duo could be the heroes. Nevertheless, her journey had made her lost in her own world, finding herself. *** Ishya Myra, a supernatural girl raised in the land below the mountains had to nail the obstacles coming her way with the help of a lad to keep her place safe which she had always believed was her home. *** © Surya Sunil Kumar 2023 ★★★
