Sold To The Beast

Darby_Cress
My family sold me to a monster to settle their debts. The whole country knows the rumors. Nicholas Sterling is a hideous, reclusive beast who shuns the light, a man whose face was ruined in a fire and whose heart was twisted by cruelty. They say he buys beautiful things—especially women—just to break them. I was delivered to his cliffside manor with nothing but the clothes on my back and a heart full of dread, a sacrificial lamb to keep my sister alive. I expected a grotesque tyrant. I was not prepared for him. A man with the face of a fallen angel and the presence of a king. His eyes aren't cruel; they're haunted by a grief so deep it steals my breath. His touch isn't violent; it’s a question that terrifies me even more. He calls me his wife. He gives me the run of his castle. But he also watches me with an intensity that feels like possession. And the one rule he gives me is the most chilling of all: Never go into the west wing. But in a house built on lies, how can I resist? The truth is waiting behind that door. And it’s more beautiful, and more terrible, than any beast.

One Piece: Becoming the Queen of Pirate

A modern-day beauty, Luna, is suddenly transported into the world of One Piece. In a world defined by freedom and adventure, she decides that if she’s already here, she might as well leave her mark. Who says women are inferior to men? If this world has a throne, then she’ll claim it and become its queen. From the very beginning, Luna awakens the System, receives a beginner’s gift pack, inherits Greeza’s power template, and unlocks all three forms of Haki. And that’s not all—her identity itself is far from ordinary. She begins recruiting crew members from the original One Piece world, including Kuina, Carmen, Kaya, Nojiko, and Uta, all of whom survive and join her journey. At the same time, powerful companions are summoned from other worlds: Galactron MK2, Platinum Rumble, Asada Shino, Tatsumaki, Dia, Lillymon, and Diancie. Brand-new powers. Original partners. A completely different fate. Starting from East Blue, Luna crushes every obstacle in her path—rising to become the Fifth Emperor of the Sea, overwhelming the Marines, destroying the Celestial Dragons, beating down the Five Elders and Imu, and ultimately dominating the pirate world. All to become a World Queen, admired and worshipped by countless people. Shanks: “The Sister Pirates? Interesting. Then Uta is yours.” Usopp, Sanji, and Nami: “Kaya… Carmen… Sis… what happened to you?!” Vegapunk: “Unbelievable. My research abilities are inferior to a teenage girl.” Sengoku: “Why is an all-female pirate crew this terrifyingly strong?” Garp: “You’re his granddaughter, aren’t you?” Luffy, letting out a sigh of relief: “Good thing no one’s stealing my title as Pirate King.” And deep within the shadows, Imu screams in despair: “Can someone tell me… how do you fight the Void?”
