ANCHOR OF HEARTS

Selina is born as the illegitimate daughter of the prestigious Everett family and cast out into a harsh world, left to survive alone. Living in disguise to blend in and escape the shadow of her stained reputation, she tries to lead an ordinary life. Somewhere along the way, she falls in love at first sight with a young man. But her feelings remain a secret—tucked away quietly—until he leaves overseas, and she’s left yearning for his return. And so, she waits. Three years later, her secret crush returns and Selina believes this is her chance to finally share her feelings. At his welcome-back banquet, a twist of fate leads them into a one-night stand. But Zane doesn’t return as the man she once admired—he comes back cold, distant, and utterly ruthless. This time, he carries revenge in his heart—against her father, the Everett family, and Selina herself. As the storm of his vengeance erupts, Selina finds her world collapsing, left isolated and shattered while trying to protect her father. And then fate deals its cruelest hand. Selina discovers she’s pregnant with Zane’s child. She doesn’t want the baby—but Zane insists it must be born. Seeing a way to end his all-consuming revenge, Selina proposes a deal: she’ll carry the child, and in return, he will let go of his dark intentions. With her feelings buried deep, Selina begins a journey through pregnancy, healing, and reclaiming her identity—navigating secrets, betrayals and the tangled legacy of her family. But as she learns to reclaim herself, she also begins to uncover something unexpected: The man who once seemed dangerous and cold-hearted reveals a side of himself no one else has ever seen. Is this just about the baby—or is something deeper taking root between them? Will their deal end as they intended? Or will fate play its teasing game once again? --- Note: This is a slow-burn romance, not a dark romance. There’s no abuse, rape, or cheating between the main couple. Selina’s suffering from his revenge outcome only lasts for a few chapters before she steps fully into her own powerful journey. I hope you enjoy and support Selina's journey ಠ⁠ᴥ⁠ಠ

Princess Yetunde: Life, Death, and Rebirth

Eighteen years old, this is the age most princess, my sister's, were sold off, ohh sorry, I meant married off. For parents that keep Omoaanre (A kept child) or (pure girl), it's an age the parents look forward to but not for me it's a day I dread the most. A day I'll be thrown into a different world, and expected to marry a man I never knew, nor seen. Expected to make my own family and be a perfect wife. Not that I know a different way. I've been tutured and trained for this only. Omoaanre are girls that have never seen the sun, never walked on the ground, virgins and never seen a guy apart from your nuclear family. For a princess it's goes without saying that we're one. Not everyone can keep Omoaanre, and girls that are out of their rooms before marriage are considered unpure, their family are looked down upon and can only marry a poor man. Born under a rare eclipse in the ancient kingdom of Oyo-Moba, Princess Yetunde was never destined for an ordinary life—even if everyone tried to make her believe otherwise. Sheltered, revered, and raised as an Omoaanre—a "kept girl" untouched by sunlight, soil, or the eyes of men—Yetunde is trained to be the perfect wife, not the powerful woman she is meant to become. At eighteen, she's chosen as the political bride of a foreign nobleman: Lord Marcus Valerian, a pale, brooding duke from the empire of Saint Liora. Cold, cursed, and carrying secrets of his own, Marcus sees their marriage as nothing more than a contract. Yetunde? She sees it as exile. But the night she steps into his world, her first life ends. And something ancient within her wakes. Now reborn with fragmented memories, strange powers, and a spine she didn’t know she had, Yetunde must navigate a world of foreign customs, mystical bloodlines, and inconvenient feelings for the man she was forced to marry. Their cultures clash hilariously. Their desires simmer dangerously. And the deeper she digs into her past lives, the more she realizes: She wasn’t just born to be someone’s wife. She was born to rewrite fate. Romantic. Witty. Magical. The Life, Death, and Rebirth of Princess Yetunde is a spicy, slow-burn, interracial fantasy romance that blends Yoruba royal culture with ancient curses, sweet love after marriage, and a heroine who learns that being "pure" has nothing to do with staying quiet. Welcome to Princess Morenikeji's Life, her Death and Rebirth.

From Villain to Virtual Sweetheart: The Fake Heir’s Grand Scheme(BL)

Oops! The foolish real young master had run away!!! The title of the book… Micah had everything anyone could possibly envy, a gentle mother, a supportive father, and two doting older sisters. His family business dominated the capital with its high-technology products, and he was raised with a silver spoon from birth. Life was perfect. Until one day everything crumbled when a young man appeared, claiming to be the real young master. The classic case of swapped at birth… Panicked and heartbroken, Micah, the fake heir, fought desperately to hold onto his family and fortune. From Bad-mouthing and spreading rumours to initiating misplaced hatred toward the real young master, he plotted financial pitfalls and implicated his family business in progress. Not to mention his backstabbing and selling the classified information to a rival company. “What the actual f..?” Micah stared at the book, seething with anger. He was practically a villain out of a melodrama. He would never be like that! Which vengeful ghost had written this book?! “Where is my knife?!” He needed to show this so-called author the true meaning of vengeance! Even if he couldn’t get his hands on him, at the very least, he could undermine all the nonsense that was written in his book! Whether would he really be this mentally handicapped as described in the book remained a mystery, but please could someone explain the rest of the book to him? Those madmen! Those Degenerated Gongs! How could they torment the cheerful sunny Shou and twist him into an obedient meek little puppet just to satisfy their sick desires?! “I, Micah Ramsy, swear to protect my new brother from those psychos and hungry wolves!” Thus begins the journey of the fake heir, hell-bent on keeping those scums away from his sweet brother.
