Chapters: 40
Play Count: 162
Damian Vale is mocked across the allied kingdom as a decadent vampire duke's second son. In secret, he is Night Thorn, the masked guardian who has protected the human frontier for years. When three rival races exploit a royal blood-alliance trial to seize Princess Celeste Ardent and the kingdom's military authority, Damian enters only after the king offers legal command of the northern blood riders and access to the sealed records of his mother's silver-poisoning. His public victory draws Elder Malrec out of hiding. Malrec weaponizes Damian's scandalous reputation, Celeste's devotion to Night Thorn, and a false ancestral blood-oath journey to create a killing ground inside the Bloodfang Coven. Celeste betrays Damian, believing she can end their political bond, only to become the key to the royal Sacred Silver Vault. Damian turns the trap into a recorded confession, reveals the false Night Thorn, and exposes himself as the real guardian. Yet he refuses to turn the mask into a claim on Celeste's love, choosing duty, dignity, and a clear boundary between protector and future queen.

The Trash Princess Is The Dragon Empress
In the kingdom of Aslan, where magic reigns supreme, Princess Rosalind, the eldest royal daughter, was born with undetectable magical power and mocked across the realm as a "useless failure." On his deathbed, the king entrusted her to three adopted companions who had grown up alongside her: Ryan, holder of military command; Evan, master of sacred arts; and Kyle, steward of the royal treasury. They were sworn to protect her, yet they conspired at her coronation to dethrone her, installing Lily—her so-called beloved sister raised in refugee camps—as queen instead. Three searing betrayals wrung three drops of blood-tears from Rosalind, which ignited the Ember Tear, a dark magic stone left by her late father. When Lily crushed Rosalind’s necklace before the entire court in a fit of rage, she inadvertently violently unsealed the ancient dragon sacred blood slumbering within the princess. Rosalind drained the magic of the whole kingdom, and Arthuron, the silver primordial elder dragon dormant for two hundred years, tore through the sky, dropping to one knee to swear fealty to his one true queen. The truth was laid bare to all by the Dragonkin’s All-Seeing Eyes, and every traitor was imprisoned. Yet Lily was revealed to be the daughter of the Black Forest Witch, who colluded with the scheming Grand Duke behind the scenes to stage a prison breakout and launch a counterattack. Worse still, Evan had aided in the late king’s assassination all those years ago. The coronation victory feast would become the ultimate trap: a showdown between the dragon-backed queen and the witch’s rebel faction.
THE NAKED LOVERS
In the early 1900s, Europe flourished in the peak of the Industrial Revolution. Steam power and booming maritime trade reshaped the old social hierarchy, elevating newly wealthy merchants while burying centuries-old noble families in decline. The ancient House of Ross, once prestigious and powerful, fell into ruin amid the turbulent era, crushed by mounting debts, failed industries and deserted manors. Born into such bleak destitution, Elena Ross had lost all her aristocratic privileges from childhood. Reduced to poverty, she retained only the inherent grace and unyielding pride of her noble lineage. To sustain the impoverished family, her mother Camilla abandoned all dignity and betrothed Elena to Jason Cole, a coarse upstart merchant who had rapidly accumulated immense wealth through wartime military shipping speculation. Obsessed with Elena’s refined noble temperament that money could never purchase, Jason cared nothing for her soul or will. The forced betrothal became a cruel chain binding her youth. Enduring years of his greedy stares and implicit threats, Elena lived in constant dread of the day he would claim her as his possession. The crisis came on her coming-of-age day. Under the guise of their engagement, Jason intruded the shabby Ross manor and attempted to violate her by force. Long-suppressed grievance and defiance burst forth. Elena resisted fiercely, refusing to submit to his brutal tyranny and shattering his arrogant presumption. Deeply humiliated and infuriated by her resistance, Jason flew into a rage. He threatened to terminate their engagement instantly and cut off all financial aid, leaving the already destitute Ross family on the brink of total collapse and Elena cornered in desperate hopelessness.
