betrayal

Forced into the Tournament. Betrayed by those he trusted. Changed forever. Dragged into the Triwizard Tournament against his will, Harry Potter is thrown into a brutal game that steals more than his peace—it shatters his innocence. As betrayal poisons old bonds and every task threatens his life, Harry is forced to confront the darker side of magic… and of himself. With the past haunting him and the future uncertain, he faces a choice: Break beneath the weight—or rise from the ashes and become the new Dark Lord.

The world show no mercy — so why should he? In the frozen North, buried beneath snow and silence, stands the Cold Moon Piercing Sect — a ruthless fortress where the weak are trampled and forgotten. He was one of them. A nameless orphan. A broken soul left to rot beneath the gaze of the proud. But fate is not so kind to the powerful. From the depths of despair, he awakens the forbidden martial art — The Heavenly Absorption Art, a path feared by all, shunned by the righteous, and drowned in blood. Betrayed. Beaten. Cast aside. Now, he returns — colder, stronger, feared. The proud will fall. The heavens will be absorbed. This is not the story of a hero. This is the tale of one who walks the forbidden path… of heaven and earth.

This is a story of heroes— —but not the kind bathed in sunshine and glory. --- No one knows betrayal better than Velian. He was just a talker—a support class, weak and unwanted in a world where swords sliced through monsters and magic shattered mountains. They laughed at him. Used him. Left him to die. His own guild—the only people he trusted—threw him to the wolves, using him as bait to save themselves. And when he thought it couldn't get worse... She lied too. His only light in the dark. Lily. The girl he called sister. They broke him. But something else woke up in the ruin of his heart. In the silent death of that dungeon, the Lexomancer System awakened—a power not of blade or flame, but of words. Words that bind, command, and destroy. "Sleep." "Shatter." "Die." Velian doesn't cast spells or swing swords—he speaks, and the world bends to his will. But power like this doesn't come without blood. Guided by a strange, floating familiar with devil eyes and a tail like a devil's whisper, Velian begins walking a new path—one soaked in vengeance, shadow, and something far older than fate. As secrets unravel and powers awaken, the world will learn: Velian isn't the same boy they abandoned. He's the voice the world should fear. Add tags: Nihilist and Manipulative MC

She's a female and second, she's a lazy know-it-all who does not want to do anything but laze around and have fun. The dungeons? Not her concern. The tower that marks the progress of humanity?

In the ancient lands of Virelia, where towering pines pierced bruised skies and the howl of the wolf was the oldest song, power was etched in claw and blood. Here, werewolf packs ruled, bound by traditions as old as the mountains themselves, their lives a tapestry woven with loyalty, strength, and an unbreakable connection to the wild. But even in a world ruled by primal law, there are those who defy its every thread. Her name was Kaelen Drayce. Born without the comfort of a pack, she was a solitary storm, a whispered legend among the shifting shadows. Her past was a tapestry of scars and secrets, her heart a fortress no one had ever breached. She was a warrior forged in isolation, her name carved in the annals of Virelia not by birthright, but by blood and steel. Feared by many, respected by more, Kaelen moved through the world like a phantom, untamed and unyielding. Until fate, with its cruel and beautiful whims, chose to bind her not to one, but to two. They were Auron and Drystan the twin heirs to the Bloodfang Pack—the most dominant, fearsome force in all of Virelia. Auron, the storm incarnate, was wild, temperamental, and relentless, his fury a consuming blaze. Drystan, the calculating shadow, was calm, dangerously intelligent, and as precise as a hunter's strike. Together, they were an unstoppable force, a perfect balance of raw power and strategic brilliance, ruling with an almost telepathic synchronicity. They had never expected to share a mate, nor had they desired to. Destiny, however, rarely consults desire. For Kaelen was no ordinary wolf. Deep within her veins pulsed a dormant power, a secret tethered to an ancient prophecy—a force that could either save or shatter Virelia. It lay sealed, hidden by forces unknown, but the moment her path collided with the Bloodfang twins, something fierce and untamed began to stir within her. As Virelia teetered on the brink, threatened by rival packs, insidious dark forces, and treacherous political conspiracies, Kaelen found herself caught in a maelstrom. She had to navigate not only the terrifying awakening of her own power but also the complex, magnetic pull of the two Alphas who now sought to claim her. But Kaelen Drayce had never been one to be claimed. She sought to conquer, to choose, to fight for a destiny that was fiercely her own. The twins, however, had no intention of letting their fated mate go. And Kaelen? She wasn't the type to surrender. This was a dance of power, love, and destiny, where the lines between protector and captor blurred, and the fate of a kingdom hung in the balance.

She was a famous assassin who had killed important figures, but ironically, she was killed by her own lover. And when she thought she was dead, it turned out she was occupying the soul of a young girl who was tricked by her own family. 'Because I have been reborn, I will take revenge on the people who planned my murder and also teach a lesson to the people who underestimated the girl whose soul I reside in!' However, things become complicated when she has to marry a cold man, whom she spent the night with.

"Aria," he said softly. "Today is your birthday." It wasn't a question, but I nodded nevertheless. "The moon is full tonight," he added, his voice quiet. "You will attend the ceremony." "Of course, Elder," I replied, puzzled. All eighteen-year-olds attended the ceremony. It was essential. He leaned in, smelling gently. "You already feel it, don't you? "The change." My heartbeat skipped. "What change?" Elder Malin's eyes narrowed. "Interesting. "Very interesting." He reached inside his pocket and retrieved a little pouch. "Wear this tonight." I accepted it hesitantly. Inside was a simple moonstone pendant with a leather cord. "But this is for—" "Wear it," he interjected. "Hide it under your clothes if you must, but wear it." Moonstones were precious. They aided our connection to the Moon Goddess during ceremonies. However, they were only given to wolves from influential families (Alphas and Betas). Not Omegas like me. "Why?" I questioned. Elder Malin glanced at Mira before returning his attention to me. "Because someone is harboring secrets about you, child. And tonight, those secrets may be revealed." ~ I never mattered in our pack. Omegas like me serve, submit, and survive. We don't dream of love. We don't dream of power. She was the future Luna. I was just the girl who watched from the shadows. But everything changed on my 18th birthday. I felt the bond. I met my mate. One of the Alpha's sons. But the Alpha has triplets, and I felt the mate bond with all three and it seems the three of them felt it too — three perfect warriors, three powerful Alphas, three secrets buried beneath the surface. One of them is my destiny. One of them is lying. And one of them might be the death of me. The Moon Goddess doesn't make mistakes... but this time, I think she might've given me too much to handle.
