Blood Moon Wolf
Adventure Blood Moon Wolf.
Trapped by a curse. Driven by vengeance. Bound to darkness.
Elias, once a nobleman, now a creature of the night, is a man whose soul is torn between his human self and the beast he has become. Cursed by an ancient and powerful magic, he is doomed to transform into a werewolf under the full moon, bound to the very darkness that now consumes him. What was once a life of privilege and power has been replaced by a nightmare of savage violence and torment.
The tragedy that began his descent into this monstrous fate was not only the death of his beloved but the betrayal by those he trusted most. With the death of his family came the cold realization that the very world he once ruled had been a lie. His enemies, masked as allies, left him with nothing-no hope, no purpose, only a burning desire for vengeance. The curse they placed upon him is both his punishment and his weapon, leaving Wagner to battle not only the beasts within but the very forces that orchestrated his downfall.
The first chapter of his nightmare begins when, under the full moon, Elias transforms into the beast for the first time-his senses heightened, his instincts sharp, his mind clouded by bloodlust. The man who once held the power to command armies is now nothing more than a slave to the moon's pull, caught between the man he once was and the monster he has become. With every passing transformation, the beast's control grows stronger, and Elias's humanity slips further away.
But Elias's story is more than just a tale of revenge; it's one of love lost and love found, of light battling against the ever-present darkness. After years of wandering the shadows, consumed by rage and guilt, Elias encounters a mysterious woman whose presence stirs something within him-a memory of the love he once lost. She is unlike any woman he has ever known, intelligent, fierce, and perhaps the key to his salvation. But their love is doomed from the start, for the beast inside Elias cannot be contained, and the man he was will always be at war with the wolf he has become.
In a world where politics, ancient cults, and forgotten gods hold sway, Elias must navigate a path filled with enemies both old and new. An ancient cult, whose secrets date back centuries, offers Elias a chance at redemption-or destruction. But their help comes at a steep price: his soul. The leader of the cult, a figure both charismatic and terrifying, seems to hold all the answers Elias seeks-but are they truly answers, or just more lies? As Elias delves deeper into the dark underworld of this cult, he begins to question everything he thought he knew about his curse-and about himself.
The cult isn't the only shadowy organization pursuing their own goals. A rival faction, equally mysterious and dangerous, sees Elias as a tool to be manipulated. With each encounter, Elias is forced to question who he can trust and whether his own quest for revenge is merely feeding into a larger game, one where he is nothing more than a pawn.
As Elias's power grows and the full moon draws nearer, the battle between his human and monstrous sides intensifies. He becomes both hunter and hunted, with every decision carrying greater consequences. The woman he loves fears him, not because of the man he is, but because of the beast he has become. Their love becomes a bittersweet hope, a fleeting moment of tenderness in a world consumed by darkness.
But with each passing night, the curse tightens its grip on him. Elias knows that he can never be truly free of it-unless he is willing to sacrifice everything. But can he truly sacrifice the one thing that makes him human? Can he face the truth of his past and embrace the monstrous future that awaits him? The answers lie within the very heart of the curse, deep within the ancient rituals that bind his fate.
To break the curse, Elias must venture deeper into the realm of the unknown, where the lines between the living and the dead blur. He must confront not only the darkness within but also the hidden truths about his bloodline, the very lineage that brought him to this point. What will it cost him to break the chains that bind him? Will he sacrifice his love, his soul, or even his life in a final attempt to regain his humanity? Or will he embrace the beast fully, allowing it to consume him entirely, becoming the very monster he once feared?
As Elias's journey unfolds, it becomes clear that his fate is tied to something much greater than himself. The curse that haunts him is but a small part of a far-reaching conspiracy-one that spans generations, weaving together the lives of kings, gods, and monsters alike. To break free, Elias must face not only the forces that cursed him but the deeper, darker secrets that threaten to unravel everything he thought he knew.
In the end, Elias is faced with a choice that will determine his fate: will he continue down the path of vengeance, or will he finally break the curse that binds him? You might like
Caught In Between Two Alphas
Ag Admirable "Kyra," Roderick started, taking a few steps forward. "Tell me, does the child belong to me?"
Norway scoffed mockingly. "You're really delusional. She was with me that night, and now you expect the child to be yours."
Roderick spun immediately to face him. "You took advantage of her that night. That's the obvious truth."
"And you didn't do the same to her?" Norway hissed, stepping closer to him. "You were the one who marked and made her your Luna against her will."
"Enough!" I snapped, as I never expected that from either of them, stepping between them.
Roderick's eyes shockingly softened at me, though it was just for a breath. "Kyra... I need to know the truth."
Norway's gaze darkened on hearing that. "You don't need to know anything. You have no business here. You just want what she carries and nothing more."
Roderick's expression didn't even deny it; he made no effort to debunk whatever Norway said against him.
He stared at me weirdly-maybe hungry, determined, desperate. "Kyra, you know we were together and there is a possibility that the child is mine. Not a possibility, I'm sure the pup is mine, I can feel it in my body."
"I can also feel in my soul that the child is mine," Norway countered. "And Roderick, don't forget I was with her recently and after that you two have not been together, so there is no way the child is yours."
"I was with her shortly before you, so I'm the father of the child."

Caught in between the two Alphas, each with great power. Would Kyra find love, or would it just be another battle for power? The Billionaires Unwilling Vows
G.Gordon CRACK.
Daniel landed a clean punch right to Leo's jaw. I gasped, hand flying to my mouth, but internally? Oh god, that was satisfying to watch.
Ally and I latched onto each other, giggling like schoolgirls, and took this as our cue to GTFO.
We bolted from the VIP section, dodging security and weaving through the crowd until we reached the DJ stage. The bass rattled my bones, the lights flashing in dizzying neon colors.
Ally clutched my arm. "What the hell did you say to that guy, Daniel?"
I burst into laughter, now fully slurring. "I told him that Leo was my obsessive ex. That I had a restraining order against him, and he wouldn't leave me alone."
Ally's jaw hit the floor. "Celeste. YOU DIDN'T."
I grinned wickedly. "I did. And then I told him if he protected me, he could have me all night long."
Ally full-on SCREAMED, grabbing my shoulders. "You evil little genius."
We howled with laughter, ignoring the chaos happening behind us. The VIP section was in full-blown war mode, but us? We were thriving.
Dancing, spinning, arms in the air, riding the high of the night. We climbed onto one of the podiums, bodies moving with the music, our dresses clinging to our curves. We were reckless. We were untouchable.
Until we weren't.
One second, I was basking in my freedom. The next, a pair of strong hands gripped my thighs, and before I could react-I was THROWN over someone's shoulder.
Everything tilted. My stomach lurched. I shrieked, pounding my fists against a broad, muscular back.
"WHAT THE FUCK-PUT ME DOWN!"
I twisted my head, and even through my blurred, drunken vision, I knew exactly who had me.
Leo.

With danger closing in and betrayals lurking around every corner, Celeste must decide: Can she trust the man who ruined her life? Or will this marriage be the beginning of her downfall?
Vows were made. Lies were told. And in a world where love and money are weapons, Celeste is about to find out just how deadly it can be. Wake Up, Dream Boy!
Mr. Ben Having some of the poems in the first edition of the poem collection, ‘The P.O.T (Poured Out Thoughts)’ published in several poetry magazines as High On Poems, Earthborne Magazine, Deadsnakes and so on, the author has ushered in the second, titled ‘The P.O.T (Poured Out Thoughts) ---The Reloaded.
It is said to be ‘reloaded’ because there are other poems to be added to make this edition slightly richer than the first. With poems as ‘Out of the Box’, ‘Dad Loves Me’, ‘Heralding God’s Magnificence’ being published in notable poetry journals and magazines, the sequel is hoped to make an impact to the entire world, beginning with the readers.
The Table of Contents has the additional poems that readers, who have read the first edition, would realize. They are intended to look into general issues, family, gender, parental, religious (Christian faith), children, love and personal/motivational.
The aim behind this piece is simple. As said in the first edition, it is about entertaining, enlightening, inspiring or motivating and enabling people think for themselves.
Worthy of Note: The author believes that subsequent edition(s) of the work would carry the above-stated aim.
