After regaining consciousness, our protagonist wakes to find a blade embedded deep within his chest. Feeling no pain as he pulls the rusted object out of his torso, he soon realises that he is no longer among the living. Existing instead as cursed undead. 

Stranded amid the ashen ruins of his once-magnificent domain, the decay of a bygone empire cloaks him in sorrow and desolation. Overwhelmed by a torment that festers unseen within his spectral form, he collapses to his knees in silent agony-a paradox of unyielding inner suffering amidst the numbness of his cursed flesh.
 
Armed with the forbidden magics of his fallen nation. Driven by an insatiable thirst for truth, he seeks to unravel the mystery of his resurrection and forge a dark path toward reviving his scattered people in a world as alien and forsaken as his own eternal curse.

This Time, I Will Live For Myself by ChronoWarden

In his previous life, he lived selflessly, finding solace in the happiness of others. But in his new life, all he desired was peace. A quiet existence with his family, far removed from the world's cruelty. Yet, even that was torn from him. His family and village were massacred, not by war or famine, but by the bored whims of a pampered and spoiled daughter from one of the wealthiest families. Broken and enraged, he realizes that kindness and passivity cannot shield him from the world's malice. He laughs bitterly at his own naivety for believing that living away from the world would bring him peace. Determined never to lose what he holds dear again, he resolves to take control of his fate. Vengeance ignites within him as he embarks on a journey to rise above all. He will crush those who stand in his way, bend the world to his will, and build a future where no one can take from him again. No kings, no gods, and not even fate will decide his path. This time, he will not live for others. This time, he will conquer everything. This time, he will live for himself.

Hush (Venom Epidemic, #1) by RedsBookmark

The virus was first found in a test patient, a volunteer, mutating rapidly. The mutated virus didn't take long to turn him into a blood sucking monster. It started with a simple laboratory test. Vampires did not exist, right? Wrong. They are not the usual romance novel related, stunningly handsome Vampires. These are the new age Vampires and all they crave is blood ... human blood.

In Shadows of Night by dstry0515

I woke to a sudden breeze invading the warmth from the heavy blanket that caressed my skin. Here, alone with my thoughts, the still, calm quiet in the atmosphere is almost painful. I feel suffocated in the clingy, static air. In quiet, still moments like these, I can almost feel Him. I don't know who "Him" is, but I can feel his presence. It's almost calming, especially on fearful, anxiety fueled nights. Usually, he was the strongest when I had a nightmare. The nightmares weren't as common now, but, right after everything happened, I was having them every night. I'd wake up and swear I was drenched in blood, my eyes and lips sticky, my nose filled with the smell of iron and fuel. After everything, that's when Him first came. From there, he just never left. I can usually sense when Him is near. Today, though, his presence is stronger. I can almost feel Him next to me, weighing down the mattress. Some nights, I roll over and imagine how he looks, envision his smile or the sparkle in his eyes. He's never there and I'm left clutching to the thought that he exists, staring into empty air. Tonight, though, I swear I can reach out and touch him. Extending my hand gently, I sweep my hand out into the darkness and meet an inexplicable warmth. A scream rips from my lungs as hands cover my face and two icy blue eyes stare back at me, daring me to speak again. A soft cloth caressed my nose and mouth before I felt myself fade into bed.

I barely make it a few steps before I feel his hand clamp down on my hair, yanking me back with terrifying force. "Going somewhere, little girl?" "P-please let g- ahh! Please! H-Hurts me!" "Afraid, are we now, baby?" His voice is a snarl now, filled with fury. "L-leave m-me," tears sting my eyes, but I refuse to let them fall. I'm scared of him, scared of what he'll do to my friend, scared of what he'll do to me. His grip on my hair tightens and I wince, choking back a sob. "Oh, why? Don't you like my hands on you, baby?" He mocks hurt that instantly turns back into anger. "But you were fine when that fucker touched you, ain't that right?" Then he pulls a silver knife out of his suit, twirling it lazily between his ink-covered knuckles and my blood freezes at the sight of that psychotic grin. ***** People quaked with fear at the sound of his name and me along with them. He was Demetrios 'the God' Nikolayev and he was first in command of Russian mafia. He was a true psychopath who enjoyed hurting people, and I hated him for that. The worst thing - he owned me. "Try to accept the darkness, because from now on, it will be your only light." I tried so hard, but I couldn't understand it back then. How possibly can darkness be light? ***** This is not a vanilla romance but a dark, toxic, perverted, obsessive story. The book contains mature themes such as foul language, bdsm, sexual and abusive content, kinks, blood, manipulation, etc. Please keep that in mind.

Paths Beyond (Under Rewrite) by DeoxyNAcid

In the frozen wilderness beyond the village walls, survival isn't guaranteed-it's earned. Grey, a sharp-eyed young hunter gifted with the ability to see ethereal threads of light connecting all living things, walks a thin line between life and death with every step into the snowbound forests. His gift is his greatest tool-and his deepest secret. When the Grand Hunt leads Grey and his squad to a chilling encounter with a monstrous creature and a group of robed strangers led by a sinister old man, the world he thought he knew begins to crack. Ancient powers stir beneath the frost, and the old man's magic reveals a truth far more terrifying than the dangers of the frozen woods. As the village reels from loss, Grey finds himself facing impossible choices. His gift, once a quiet advantage, now feels like a curse drawing him deeper into a conflict he doesn't understand. Shadows whisper of forgotten paths-ancient roads walked by those who sought strength not just to survive, but to transcend. Paths where power can be cultivated, honed, and wielded by those willing to sacrifice everything. But power always comes at a cost. Blood stains the frost, alliances are tested, and every step deeper into the unknown pulls Grey closer to a path he may not be ready to tread-a path where strength isn't just survival, but transformation. And in the depths of the wilderness, where cold winds carry secrets and danger lurks with every shadow, Grey must decide if he's willing to pay the price for what lies beyond.

Dawn Blade [Discontinued / Hiatus] by Izanagimi

A once peaceful world was brought close to extinction and oblivion after a strange event that caused the demon realm to be combined with the mortal realm of the humans. The demons that invaded the world spread about havoc and destruction. The humans, who tried to fight back with their technology, had been defeated. As time passed, the demons becoming the ruling race, humans became docile and mainly went into hiding, with few towns still having human rights or safety. Technology started going backward as none had the chance to advance or evolve their technology, reducing humans to a state of a decayed modern age. The humans live in fear of the demons, seeking only a way out or a way to be safe. However, recently, a group of revolutionaries has started rising underground, forming an army of their own with the goal of destroying the Great Demon Lord. Together with their newly grown special powers and for some even special weapons, they seek to fight against the demons to return their freedom. Find out what will happen in this post-demon-apocalyptic story, the world of Dawn Blade!

Greyskin by TehEuge

Magic, power, beauty, all the things people covet were granted to them from their gods. But there would always be someone wishing to have more. In their pursuit of greed, people built gates, some of which lead to laces that should not be visited. The Utopia build by gods gets invaded by demons and gods struggle to overcome their invasion. Their success is limited, confining the demons to the eastern part of their world. Twenty odd years ago, a Demon Lord rose up and once again upset the balance of the world. With another invasion, he conquered the world and eradicated the most magnificent race in the world and robbing their goddess of her people. Soon after, the Demon Lord is betrayed, his empire crumbling. The goddess is on the brink of death, the last princess of her people enslaved and abused and with no way to help her. Now, the princess gives birth to something new, a union of light of the gods and demonic scourge. A demon, strong and powerful, cruel and awesome. A greyskin.

Forgotten by crystalbooks24

//He had my hands pinned tightly above my head as I squirmed beneath him. The blade twisting between his fingers. He held it up to my throat. I was afraid but refused to show it. "Hurt me." I said between gritted teeth. He just gave me a sorrowful glance before driving the dagger into my flesh.// This is no story of love and happiness. This is a story of death and destruction. One of a man and woman who met one night and not only changed the lives of themselves, but the lives of a whole world of people. One was fire and one was water. They were perfectly balanced. Until one night when the sun fell just below the tip of the tallest castle, the balance faltered, and all hell broke loose. Fire on fire.
