Egg Cult

A monk suffering from amnesia tries to recover his memory while passing through hell, the gentle but downgraded journalist who transforms into a ruthless killing monster while trying to gather a headline scoop, a desperate youth quest for wealth at his own expense, an ancient village people cursed because they could not meet the end of the bargain when their sacrifice walked into their midst, two young individuals escape from an enemies camp only to fall into a mysterious trap that might claim their lives, a scientist recounts his experience and encounters after observing a similar egg cell found in the bloodstream of dead men. - these stories explore the dark and ironic sides of human behaviour, the degree of tolerance, suffering any individual can take as a limit, the quest of freedom and prestige we all hope and want to attain, and lessons gained after consequence played out - all framed in a time cyce playing and replaying hoping to find a way out.

On our fifth anniversary, Henry Judd—the guy who once swore he'd propose—rented out an entire mall for Cecilia Cheape's birthday. A diamond the size of a pigeon's egg sparkled on her finger. I'd been dumb enough to think it was meant for me. "Cece, I'm gonna give you a birthday you'll never forget," he announced, loud enough for the whole world to hear. Then he yanked the tab off a soda can and handed it to me. "Lulu, those gaudy things don't suit you. You deserve something unique." He slid the can tab onto my finger—his version of a proposal. Cecilia got the dream birthday. I got a piece of trash and a slap of reality. Later, when he found out I was marrying someone else, he got down on one knee with that same ring and begged me to say yes.

Five years ago, Selena suffered a miscarriage and was told that having children would be impossible naturally. She trusted the diagnosis. She agreed to a surrogate. She raised a child she believed wasn’t hers. Until a medical summit in Geneva exposes altered lab results—and her husband’s signature authorizing the change. As she digs deeper with the one doctor who once tried to expose the fraud, Selena uncovers a devastating truth: her infertility was fabricated. Her hormones were manipulated. And the child she’s been raising? Interestingly, the child was hers. Marcus didn’t just lie. He took her egg without asking, made a child in secret, and built an empire on the same experimental protocol that ruined her pregnancy. Now pregnant again, Selena files for divorce, starting a custody war, a corporate investigation, and a public reckoning that could destroy everything Marcus built. He wanted control. She wants the truth. Only one of them will walk away with the empire.

I finally became pregnant after my husband and I underwent over a dozen rounds of IVF. However, to my horror, I discovered that the embryo growing inside me was the fertilized egg of my husband and the family maid. They even schemed to have me disappear so that the child could inherit everything. I pretended not to know, carried the child to term, and took care of him, raising him with love and care. It was not until 20 years later that they forced me to sign a share transfer agreement by my hospital bed, along with a divorce agreement that left me with nothing. "After 20 years, we finally have our happy family. You never saw this coming, did you? The child you fought so hard to give birth to is my biological son!" Even my son, without any remorse, said, "Honestly, your illness is beyond help. It'd be better for you to just die." With a knowing, almost bittersweet, smile I replied, "For your happiness, I'm willing to do whatever it takes."

In Emberfall Woods, 20-year-old Alya Dawn steps into her role as the Dawn Pack’s alpha, her crescent star tattoo pulsing with untested power. As whispers of the marrow god’s return stir fear, Kael Varn, a brooding exiled alpha, arrives, igniting a mate bond that complicates her leadership. The cult leader Veyra unleashes blood rituals, forcing Alya to unite her pack through mind-linked battles and steamy moments with Kael. A shocking betrayal and a lunar temple clash reveal Alya’s strength, but Veyra’s escape sets the stage for a larger war. With bold women leading the charge, primal wolf transitions, and a vibrant pack dynamic, Alya’s journey hooks you into a world of loyalty, love, and sacrifice.

I looked up and our eyes met the same time my heart stopped for a beat or two. I had seen him and his people around town and never before felt what I was feeling right now. It was as if my entire body, mind, and soul was screaming for him … Hunter … The cult leader who lived just outside of town with his strange people. “Mate.” It couldn’t be! She couldn’t be my mate! She was a human! She was just a child! She was my second chance and most probably my last … Would the age gap between Irina and Hunter drive them apart? Would his money? Or would they be able to find their way to each other and live happily ever after?

Leo, the don of Italy's most notorious and dangerous Mafia cult, comes in contact with Clara, an innocent scholarship student in his school. Leo goes to school, in order to fulfill his mother's last wish before she died. Clara on the other hand, needed to become the best graduating student to gain another scholarship to study in the university. Their first meeting wasn't pleasant, as they had a misunderstanding and Clara did what nobody has ever done to him, not to talk of an ordinary girl like her. If only she knew his identity... He was furious, and would have killed her instantly but he didn't. Everyone who saw and heard the news, were all suprised by his action. It was the very first time he hesitated to kill anyone who provoked him WHY DID HE SPARE HER?

It's been five years since I started trying to win over Zachary Pierce. I even went so far as to have a child through IVF, hoping it would finally make him care. But no matter what I do, I can never reach 100 percent affection from him. It always stays at 99 percent. Sometimes it even drops lower. One day, exhausted and aching, I go looking for him. As I reach his room, I hear laughter coming from inside. "She still hasn't figured out the egg wasn't even hers. The moment the baby was born, Zach's affection score for her dropped to zero." "So what if she finds out? She should be grateful that her face looks so much like Yvonne's. Honestly, I'm done entertaining her. It's exhausting." At that moment, everything clicks. All the hope I've held onto, every sacrifice I've made, they were all just a joke. I turn away and say to the system, "End this for me. Send me to another world."

He took her from a cult. He marked her as his possession. He never expected her silence to ruin him. Liana has lived her entire life inside a forbidden cult hidden in the mountains. Blind obedience. Sacred rituals. Absolute isolation. Until the night the world ends. A man they call The Blood King—feared mafia lord, known as The Red Serpent—slaughters the entire sect and takes her captive. Not for love. Not for ransom. But for the strange mark burned into her skin… a mark that can unlock a weapon older than the mafia itself. Liana becomes his prisoner, his leverage, his obsession. He is cold. He is merciless. He is everything she was raised to fear. But the more he breaks her world apart, the more he finds himself drawn to the girl who refuses to break. Because monsters don’t always kill you. Sometimes… they keep you.

Before the dark, obsessive, hideous, and disabled Alpha of the Wolf Pack chose his wife, rumors spread that he favored Cat Clan beastwomen above all others. My fiance feared that my family's maid would be selected, so he spent days and nights making passionate love to her in my bed behind my back. Only after the maid conceived his beast egg did he finally feel at ease. On the day my fiance and I were supposed to form our bond, the maid stroked her slightly rounded belly and flaunted it before me. "Ms. Sinclair's bed certainly served its purpose. Nate and I only needed three months to conceive a beast egg." After speaking, she deliberately covered her mouth with a triumphant smile. "Oh, I forgot to mention—Nate is actually the exiled heir of the Eagle Clan! "For old times' sake, he said he'd graciously allow you to join the Fairfaxes as my maid to care for me during my pregnancy." I let out a cold laugh. She was destined for disappointment. If she would not marry the Alpha of the Wolf Pack, then I would. I could never be her maid, because I would only ever be the Wolf Pack's Luna.
