He married her to honor a promise. He hated her with every breath. But when she fainted in his arms, something cracked in his cold heart. As secrets unfold and emotions stir, the mafia don who swore he'd never love... finds himself breaking all his own rules-for her.

No one ever knew she existed. Not because she was forgotten but because she was never meant to survive at all. Vespera Black was born in darkness, daughter of Bellatrix and Voldemort, a secret meant to be erased before she ever drew breath. Instead, she was stolen from death and raised in shadows a whisper behind Hadrian Potter's footsteps, a protector hidden behind false names and unseen magic. Hadrian wasn't the Boy Who Lived. He was the boy who refused to let his twin sister die alone. While the world watched their hero rise, they never realized there was a witch fighting beside him silent, deadly, and bound to him by something deeper than blood. She was never his burden. Never his shame. She was the one person he would burn the world to protect. But the war is over now. The monsters who created them are dead. And Vespera is done living like a ghost. For the first time, she wants to walk into the light not hidden behind Hadrian, but standing beside him, ready to reclaim her name, her power, and the life she was never allowed to have. Because the witch no one saw is finally ready to be seen and the wizarding world has no idea what's coming. A story told through the eyes of two souls who survived the impossible, and the world that never knew they existed.

"In a world where pain is the only absolute and survival is a daily war, Sayuna seeks a reckoning." 13th Century Japan. The Mongol invasion has turned the island of Tsushima into a desolate wasteland of mud, iron, and unyielding cold. Sayuna, a master archer whose life was reduced to ash in the flames of her village, lives for only one purpose: to find the commander known as Harun and end his life. But the path of vengeance is a slow death. Forced into a grim alliance with Kaishin, a battle-worn, cynical swordsman whose spirit is as scarred as his blade, she must navigate a landscape where every wound is felt with terrifying clarity and every night is a fight against exhaustion. As they carve their way through the ranks of the invaders, a strange sensation begins to take hold. Faded echoes of lives that feel like their own, yet aren't. Flashes of places that shouldn't exist. And high above, a single, unwavering star that burns with a cold, unnatural light, indifferent to the suffering below. On this island, death seems like a beginning rather than an end, and the longer they stay, the more they risk losing their true selves to the shadows. Yuna and Kai must reach their target before their own memories betray them and they become permanent parts of this brutal world. - Inspired by the game "Ghost of Tsushima"

A forgotten book, a silent guardian, and a kingdom emerged from the shadows, revealing that nothing the three believed was complete. The monster was only a sign, not the threat itself. Now they stand at the edge of something unknown. The book hides a secret, Noah carries a destiny he does not understand, Millie's power is deeper than anyone imagined, and Lily's arrival proves that other realms are watching. The truth is close, yet still out of reach, and every answer only leads to a greater question.

Kuch gunah khoon se likhe jaate hain... aur kuch dilon par. Rahil Qadeer Khan ek aisa aadmi hai jo sheher ke andheron ko apne qanoon se saaf karta hai. Log usey Serpent ke naam se jaante hain- ek aisa shakhs jo insaaf aur zulm ke darmiyan khud ko qazi samajhne lagta hai. Hana ki zindagi us waqt toot-ti hai jab us ke baap ke gunahon ka bojh us ke naam likh diya jata hai. Usay na sirf apni pehchaan par sawal uthte hain, balkay us aadmi ke saamne jhukna parta hai jo khud faisla karta hai ke kaun jeene ke laayak hai... aur kaun nahi. Yeh kahani mohabbat se shuru nahi hoti. Yeh kahani ikhtiyaar se bhi shuru nahi hoti. Yeh kahani shuru hoti hai khauf, majboori, aur zabardasti se. Ek zabardasti ka nikkah. Ek band darwazon wala ghar. Aur ek larki jo sirf zinda rehne ke liye apni khamoshi ki qeemat ada karti hai. Gunahgar Dil sawal uthata hai: kya ghalat insaaf bhi insaaf hota hai? kya taqat hifazat ban sakti hai? aur kya koi shakhs apne gunahon ke saath bhi mohabbat ka mustahiq ho sakta hai?

In an age when maps can conquer more than armies, Elena Valenti learns to draw the world in secret. Born in sixteenth-century Venice to the royal cartographer of the Portuguese crown, she grows up among compasses and parchment - tools that decide the fates of nations. But Elena's gift is more dangerous than her father ever imagined: she alters the maps that feed empires, hiding villages, sacred sites, and entire peoples from the greedy eyes of kings. When her deception is exposed, Elena's world collapses. Her father is executed for treason, imperial fleets are dispatched to hunt her down, and the cartographers she once idolized become her fiercest enemies. Armed with nothing but ink, stolen charts, and a secret atlas written in codes no conqueror can read, she flees across oceans - pursued by soldiers, spies, and rival mapmakers who would kill for the knowledge she carries. From the markets of Lisbon to the gold-dusted cities of West Africa, from the palaces of Mughal India to the misty peaks of the Andes, Elena's journey becomes more than a flight for survival. It is a mission to rewrite the world itself. Along the way, she forges unlikely alliances - a priestess who encodes landscapes into song, a ronin who reads the sea like scripture, a rebel princess who believes maps are prisons. Each teaches her a truth the empires fear: that land does not belong to those who claim it, but to those who remember it. Sweeping from Renaissance Europe to the uncharted edges of the known world, The Mapmaker's Daughter is a story of courage and betrayal, ink and blood, and a young woman who turns cartography into rebellion. It is about how maps do more than chart the world - they define it - and how one woman dares to redraw its lines.
