Marriage First, Love Second

Maximus Bloodthorn, once a powerful Demon Ovarlord, was betrayed and killed by his own subordinates, vowing revenge with his dying breath. Reincarnated as Isaac Ackerman, a human baby, he must adapt to his new mortal life without demonic powers. With his past memories intact he embarks on a journey to master the art of mana and attain power in the mortal realm.

BLURB Rylan Vane was born a noble but died a nobody. Stripped of his bloodline and cast into the lowest caste of vampire society, he survives in the shadows of the undercity, feeding on vermin and hiding from enforcers who would finish what his family’s betrayers started. He is weak, nameless, and forgotten. But when a brush with death forces him into the forbidden Catacombs of Flesh, he discovers something impossible: a Seal of the First Blood, an ancient heirloom forged by the progenitor of all vampires. The Seal should have destroyed him, instead, it bonded to him, awakening a power no vampire has possessed in a millennia, and a terrifying ability to hear the Echoes of other Seals scattered across the Dominion. Now Rylan must navigate a world that wants him dead. Noble houses will hunt him for the power he carries. The Empress, who has ruled for a thousand years through her own Seal, will see him as a threat to her throne. And the Seals themselves whisper to him, offering power beyond imagination, at a price that may cost him his soul. From the gutters of Nyxara to the heart of the Crimson Throne, Rylan will rise. But the question is not whether he can become powerful enough to survive. The question is what he will become in the process.

He was the world’s top gamer—the undefeated champion of Kingdom War Online. But moments after claiming his final victory, he died… only to awaken inside the game—as the very villain everyone wants dead. Now reborn as Lord Virex, the last boss fated to fall, he holds all his memories, strategies, and battle instincts—but none of the player perks. Worse, he’s stuck in the body of a tyrant hated by the world, with an endgame war looming that promises his destruction. His only shot at survival? Break the rules, rewrite the story, and conquer the world before it conquers him. With cunning, charisma, and sheer dominance, Lord Virex begins gathering powerful female war generals—once enemies, now loyal to him alone. Each one is deadly. Each one desires him. And each one holds the key to changing fate itself. But the deeper he goes, the more secrets he uncovers… and the closer the real enemies draw. In a world where betrayal lurks behind beauty and every move could trigger the end, can the villain become the true king?

Before he can even make sense of the situation, Nicholas, the man who once commanded armies and shook nations… becomes an accidental husband. And the worst part? She has no idea who she just married.

Yet the more power he gains, the more dangerous his bond becomes. Because the creature at his side isn’t loyal only interested… and increasingly possessive. While others tame beasts… Lucien tamed a god.

In his first life, Maximilian lost everything after falling prey to a cruel plot by those he thought were allies before ultimately dying at the hands of the woman he loved the most. That was supposed to be the end for him, however, fate seemed to have other plans as he awoke three years in the past, three years before he lost everything. Given a second chance to make everything right, Maximilian makes a solemn promise; to those that wronged him, he would surely get his pound of flesh and this time, there would be no losses.

Bullied. Broken. Forgotten. Ego lived as nothing — an orphan crushed beneath humiliation and cruelty. When a final act of torment sends him into the path of a speeding car, his miserable life ends. But death is not the end. In the void between life and oblivion, he meets Asmodus, the Demon King of Lust and Desire, who offers him a contract: Power for devotion. Rebirth for servitude. Strength beyond imagination. Ego accepts. Reborn in a world where magic rules and desire fuels creation, he awakens the Harem Codex — a forbidden system that turns bonds, ambition, and longing into overwhelming power. This time, he will not be weak. This time, he will not be ignored. As kingdoms tremble, the Church brands him heretic, and demons watch from the shadows, Ego begins his rise — assembling allies, forging contracts, and reshaping fate itself. Because desire is power. And he intends to rule.

Three years ago, Dr. Adrian Cole was the golden boy of surgery until the powerful Monroe family framed him for malpractice, stripping him of his license and his wife, Lilian. Now, Adrian has returned as Chairman Cole, the cold, ruthless majority shareholder of a medical conglomerate, and his target is the Metropolitan Medical Group (MMG)—the very hospital that ruined him. Adrian’s meticulously planned destruction is swiftly turning into a global shadow war when he discovers the Monroes are merely a regional arm of a vast, illicit syndicate known as The Foundation. His revenge is no longer just personal; it's a desperate fight for survival against an international enemy. The one weakness in his airtight plan is Dr. Lily Monroe, Lilian’s brilliant younger sister, who secretly believes in Adrian’s innocence. As he installs her in a high-stakes position to gather intel, their volatile professional rivalry ignites an intense, forbidden attraction. When The Foundation issues its brutal ultimatum—forcing Adrian and Lily into a public, fake engagement to protect her reputation—the line between protector and adversary vanishes. Can Adrian dismantle a global conspiracy without losing the one woman who sees the man behind the monster, or will the price of his ultimate victory be the second life he fought so hard to reclaim?
