Stubborn

ABOUT THE STORY: "Action Bound Hearts Of Flame And Frost" takes place in a modern Earth-like world called Earthen where elemental spirits, angels, and demons exist in secret. Most people don't know these beings walk among them - but Phenics and Yuki are on the front lines of a war between our world and the Abyss. _____ THE MAIN CAST: Phenics Amaterasu (Lead Male - Tsundere Type) He's fiery, stubborn, secretly kind under all the snark, and of course, super bad at expressing his feelings (especially toward a certain icy girl). His powers stem from his Phoenix Spirit, giving him control over blazing flames, crimson wings, and combat-enhancing astral armor. He's also ¼ human, ¼ angel, and ½ Phoenix Elemental Spirit - so yeah, he's complicated. _____ Yuki Yuuki (Lead Female - Kuudere Type) Cool, composed, and deeply emotional beneath the surface. Yuki is Phenics' childhood friend and partner in battle. She doesn't say much, but when she does, it cuts straight to the soul. Her powers are from her Ice Spirit heritage - she's a Yuki Onna (Snow Woman) with ice manipulation, spirit-enhanced martial skills, and killer frost-glare energy. Also ¼ human, ¼ angel, and ½ Ice Elemental Spirit. _____ Kazuya Hayashi (Male - Loyal Best Friend Type) Phenics' other best friend and the "big brother" energy of the group. He doesn't have spirit blood, but he makes up for it with strong spiritual awareness, energy-enhanced equipment, and a grounded sense of calm. He's brave, chill, and maybe too good at keeping secrets. _____ Miko Aihara (Female - Energetic + Spirited Type) The heart of the team. Miko is Kazuya's closest companion and often drags everyone into being a bit more... human. Like Kazuya, she's fully human but spiritually gifted. Her style leans more toward agility and charm in battle, using sacred gear and talismans.

Cesare Caruso, a renowned actor and a global superstar, appeared to have it all—fame, fortune, and an impeccable reputation. Yet, hidden beneath the surface was a secret he had guarded for years—he was an Omega. That carefully guarded secret came crashing down in one fateful night, during a glamorous masquerade ball aboard a luxurious cruise ship. Overwhelmed by an unexpected heat cycle, Cesare loses control of himself, devoured by his own desires and falling into the arms of a mysterious Alpha—a reckless moment that changed everything. [Zahir al-Tamid. That’s my name.] To his shock, the Alpha was Zahir—a proud prince from an oil-rich kingdom and an unwelcome figure from Cesare’s past. Worse, that night left Cesare unexpectedly pregnant! Before Cesare could make sense of it all, Zahir made a grand entrance at Cesare’s mansion by helicopter, uninvited, catching the attention of major media outlets around the world, demanding a settlement claiming that Cesare shall be responsible for ‘imprinting’ a royal family like him! “...Seriously, it’s not as if I have a ludicrous $2 billion just lying around, you know.” “Thus, marry me, Cesare.” Pregnancy, imprinting, and a royal marriage proposal—showered by a series of unwanted events, Cesare is desperate to find a way to cut ties with Zahir. But Zahir, stubborn and relentless, has no plans to let go. Can Cesare outrun the tempest, or will it pull him under? #BL #Omegaverse #Obsessive #Crybaby #One-sideLove #Prince #Superior Text copyright ⓒ 2024 by Kim Sol Da All right reserved.

Aisha's life is a stark portrait of resilience forged in the crucible of relentless adversity. A single mother of five sons, each a living testament to a man who abandoned her, she endures the ceaseless, corrosive scorn of her close-knit community. Branded a "loose woman," her reputation precedes her, isolating her in a suffocating atmosphere of judgment. Her days are punctuated not only by the whispered disapproval of her neighbors, but also by the daily struggle to provide for her children, often with meager resources. Her reflection in a cracked mirror, a constant reminder of her shattered past and the seemingly insurmountable challenges of her present, becomes a symbol of her fragmented identity. Yet, beneath the crushing weight of despair, Aisha's fierce, unwavering love for her sons acts as a defiant shield. This love fuels her quiet rebellion against the societal forces that seek to break her spirit, driving her to find strength where none seems to exist. The story delves into the profound impact of societal judgment, particularly on women, exploring the ways in which it can isolate and dehumanize. It also illuminates the indomitable strength of female resilience, highlighting the power of maternal love to transcend even the most harrowing circumstances, and ultimately, to pave a path toward a fragile, hard-won hope. Beyond the societal scorn, her life is a constant battle against poverty. Each sunrise brings the daunting task of stretching meager resources to feed and clothe her five sons. Market days become a gauntlet of haggling and bartering, where every coin is a hard-won victory. Her hands, calloused and worn, tell the story of countless hours spent washing clothes, mending garments, and tending to the small, stubborn patch of land that provides a meager supplement to their diet. The boys, ranging in age from toddler to teenager, are both her burden and her salvation. They are a constant source of worry, yet their laughter and innocent affection provide the only respite from the crushing weight of her circumstances. This daily struggle, this relentless fight for survival, becomes another layer of her resilience, a testament to her unwavering determination to protect her children.

Ascension: Beyond the End The Tower stands eternal—an ancient construct older than time, unreachable at its peak, and worshipped by gods who didn’t build it. For eons, the brave and the broken alike have climbed its floors for glory, power, or salvation. Adyanth is none of those things. Born into propaganda and raised in rubble, he lost the ability to feel joy—or grief—when a missile shattered his childhood. He didn’t become stronger. He didn’t grow kinder. He simply endured. Now, after six silent months in a coma, the Tower has invited him to ascend. Most see it as a divine calling. Adyanth sees it as a mistake. Armed with nothing but sarcasm, sociopathy, and a stolen clown mask, he climbs not to redeem the world… but to annoy the one that made him. Where others seek godhood, he seeks poetic inconvenience. And if there's truly a power atop Floor 150? He’ll take it—not to rebuild existence, but to turn it sideways and laugh. This isn’t a story of vengeance or virtue. This is a spite-fueled march to the top, starring a man too numb to care and too stubborn to quit. And at the end of all things, when the last trial cracks and the heavens scream? The joke’s on the universe.

Except this time, she’s fighting monsters, managing trauma, and maybe saving humanity. One color-coded map at a time.

In the beginning, he promises her, "After you graduate from university, we will get married." However, he ends up marrying someone else. Later on, she gets busy attending blind dates and tries to enter an ordinary marriage with a heart that's nothing but cold and dead. Jin Hengyuan is cold but handsome—he's her nth blind date.

Isn't this considered an odd-job laborer?" "…" Oh, damn it. How did she marry such a bully of an attorney?

He wasn’t some chosen hero. Not the golden boy in prophecy. He was just Kieran Marcoth—a boy born on the wrong side of fate, A mistake, a misfit. Not blessed by heaven. Too stubborn for hell. And now… Thrown onto a battlefield meant for gods. The world had already been broken long before he came into it. People sinned, as they always do— And one day, the sky finally answered. The day God turned away, Everything fell. Cities burned. Families vanished. The silence afterward was louder than any explosion. But even in wrath, the Divine left something behind. A final olive branch—if you could call it that. A way to survive what came crawling out of the darkness. Talents. Powers. Strange, unique abilities passed down like gifts from a god who no longer cared. And on the day Kieran stood in line—quiet, hopeful, a little scared— Waiting to receive his talent, He dared to believe his life might finally start to make sense. Instead… He awakened something different. A hidden SSS-ranked talent. The kind with a condition attached. A catch. And just like that, everything went wrong. Laughter. Whispers. Stares like knives. He became a joke. A disappointment. Even the instructors didn’t bother to hide their sneers. Then the bullying started. The beating. The betrayal. And one day, it nearly killed him. He lay there, bleeding. Angry. Humiliated. A part of him still hoping this was some twisted mistake. But it wasn’t. And then— A sound. > [Ding! Conditions have been met] [Host has been successfully selected as a God Candidate] [Defeat the other candidates! Become the next God of this ruined world] Kieran stared at the message blinking in front of him. He didn’t smile. Didn’t cry. Didn’t feel triumphant. He just felt tired. And then, something in him shifted. One thought, sharp and cold, rose to the surface: “I’m going to fucking kill those bastards.” Not for power. Not for glory. But because he was done being the punchline. That’s how his journey began. Not as a hero. Not yet a monster. Just a boy who had lost too much— And found something worth fighting for in the wreckage. The question now is: Will the world break him again? Or will he become the god who remakes it?

In this magic-suffused land, a girl had been forgotten by the world in a quiet corner. Clad in black, solitary as a weed pushing through stone cracks, she’d endured eighteen harsh winters and summers—lonely, stubborn, unseen. No one knew her true name. To them, she was only "Blackie": the magicless one, the world's outsider. On her eighteenth year, a thread of dark mana, unlike anything before, stirred within her. Like lightning cleaving through a chaotic dream, it illuminated her path in an instant. Calm shattered—pursuit by black-clad figures erupted at the station, the gates of a prestigious magic academy swung open unexpectedly, and figures cloaked in secrets stepped into the dim light of her existence. From overlooked dust to the storm's eye… Her magic adventure was quietly beginning. "Take my mother's surname, Vane. So call me... Ellis Vane." The girl reached for the quill, its tip trailing shards of starlight in the twilight.

A scholarship student at Seoul National’s elite business program, she’s too busy clawing her way out of her family’s debts to decode the silent boy who watches her like she’s the only person in the room. But when a class project forces them together, Nari discovers the truth: Jihun isn’t quiet because he’s arrogant. He’s quiet because he’s terrified—of the legacy he carries, of the words that won’t come, of becoming a ghost in his own story. And Nari? She’s never been afraid to speak her mind.

THE KNIGHT WHO STOLE ME A Darkly Romantic Tale of Obsession, Forbidden Longing, and a Love That Won’t Be Ignored --- "I was supposed to hate him. Then he stole me." Sarah Jane, a quiet 17-year-old with a heart too tender for her own good, never asked for the attention of Andrew Knight—the ruthless, coldly beautiful CEO of AK Corporation. She certainly never expected to be dragged into his world, forced to live under his roof, or subjected to his unnerving gaze that seems to strip her soul bare. But Andrew Knight doesn’t ask. He takes. After a chance encounter awakens a long-buried obsession, Andrew whisks Sarah away to his gilded mansion, claiming her as his own. Yet this is no fairy tale—this is a war. He replaces her old things with expensive replicas—identical, but better. He watches her sleep, tucking her in with hands that could crush empires. He memorizes her sighs, counts her blushes, and hates how much he craves her fear. And Sarah? She should resist. But the deeper she falls into his world, the harder it becomes to deny the truth: Andrew Knight didn’t just steal her freedom. He stole the broken pieces of her heart—and refuses to give them back. --- WHY IT WORKS: “HE NOTICED HER FOUR YEARS AGO.” (Flashbacks reveal Andrew has been watching since her school speech. That photo in his drawer? Just the beginning.) “SHE LEFT HER DOOR UNLOCKED ON PURPOSE.” (And he knows it. The midnight temple kiss? Neither of them will admit it happened.) “THE COCKROACH SCENE.” (A bug makes him yank her into his chest. His heartbeat? Faster than hers.) “SAM, THE ULTIMATE CHAOS GREMLIN.” (“Andrew, if you keep glaring at her, she’ll think you hate her.” Andrew: “Good.” —Lies. Lies everywhere.) “THE ‘ONLY YOU’ WHISPER IN THE MAYBACH.” (His car. His rules. Her in the passenger seat. No one else.) --- TROPES YOU’LL DEVOUR: "Touch Her and You Die" Energy Forced Proximity (One mansion. Two stubborn hearts.) "Who Hurt You?" Backstories Slow Burn (So slow it burns the house down) Possessive AF CEO (“Look at me, Sarah. Only me.”) --- FINAL HOOK: "He was supposed to be her prison. Instead, he became her addiction." --- READ IF YOU DARE: You love morally grey men who loathe their own weakness. You live for heroines who are soft but never weak. You need a slow burn that hurts so good. --- WARNING: This story contains: Unresolved sexual tension (So much glaring.) A CEO who doesn’t know how to relax (But tries for her.) Sam. (Just… Sam.) --- THE KNIGHT WHO STOLE ME (Because love isn’t given. It’s claimed.)

So, what happens when a bullied teenager gives up on life, dies… and then wakes up in a fantasy world? Meet Hayato—just your average (okay, severely traumatized) high schooler who takes the express train to the afterlife… only to respawn as Kibo Satoru, the son of a powerful noble family. White hair? Cool. Blue eyes? Meh. A body that can use mana? Cliche. Sounds like an upgrade—except life still refuses to be easy. Kibo is smart, a quick learner, and genuinely lovable. He treasures his family, makes dumb mistakes, and somehow stumbles his way into becoming stronger. But when it comes to fighting? This dude is straight-up insane—bleeding, bruised, smiling like he just found a cheat code. Losing? Sometimes. He might not be the strongest at first, but he’s got two things going for him: pure stubbornness and an annoying voice in his head named Ignis. But hey, life isn’t all epic battles and badass moments. Kibo is still human, still figuring things out, and still scared of losing the people who actually care about him. And yeah, sometimes the weight of it all almost breaks him. Almost. But Kibo isn’t going down without a fight. If fate wants to mess with him, it better be ready for the fight of his entire life.

Summer Bellani had everything—wealth, power, beauty, and a love she believed unbreakable. As the cherished daughter of the Bellani family, she lived a golden life in Italy under the adoring gaze of her four influential brothers and a fiancé who once called her his world. But it all shattered the day her father returned with a secret daughter and placed her into their home like an honored guest. That daughter—Ciara—smiled sweetly, spoke gently, and stole everything. Betrayed, isolated, and slowly poisoned to death, Summer died with hate in her heart and blood on her lips. But fate gave her another chance. Now reborn to the time before her destruction, Summer is no longer the naive socialite people remember. With sharp instincts, a deadly calm, and the aid of Sham Sham—a mysterious system bound to her mother’s ancient artifact—Summer sets out not just to reclaim what was hers… but to ruin those who dared strip her of it. Armed with beauty, brains, and her newfound bond with the ruthless stock market and cutthroat business world, she weaves herself into entertainment scandals, backroom boardroom deals, and the darkest layers of power. What she doesn’t expect is him—the paranoid, emotionally-walled male lead who sees through lies but is haunted by his own demons. As their worlds collide in a slow-burning war of obsession and mistrust, Summer realizes that love may not be the weakness it once was... but a weapon. Betrayal was her past. Domination is her future.

No system. No shortcuts. Just memory, grit, and the will to burn brighter. When gods fall silent, only the stubborn rise. William Carter died quietly—a forgotten soul in a world that never gave him a chance. But death wasn’t the end. He awakens as William Denvers, infant heir to a noble house in Primera, a shattered world once shaped by goddesses and divine law. There’s no system prompt. No cheat skill. No divine blessing. Just memory, silence, and a single burning vow: “I want to live. I want to show the world… I am William Carter. And I am here.” As he learns to crawl through the marble halls of House Denvers, William begins the long, brutal path toward power—the hard way. Through books, blades, and bone-deep resolve, he must grow in a land where magic is legacy, war is memory, and children are molded into tools. But Primera is not a peaceful land. Whispers of vanished gods still haunt the wind. Cults of flame and shadow stir beneath sacred soil. And behind the grace of noble houses lie secrets that could tear the world apart once more. William Denvers is not chosen by fate. He chooses himself. To survive. To rise. To make this second life matter. And when the fires of war return to Primera, he will not run. He will remember the vow that brought him here—and ignite a world with it.

Jo-Pil, ahem, I mean, I was just a simple sales manager who was more than satisfied with my way of living, thank you very much. But my simple way of living came crashing down like the heavy materials I was counting on my night shift, crushed me and my simple life, and then landed me in a novel I had read back when I was still a Freshman at university. And to make it all worse, it just happened to be the kind of novel that readers would wish to get into and crack the skull of the various sadistic love interests as well as the stubborn main character who just didn't know when to sit still. Ugh. But what was even worse than that was the fact that I, Jo-Pil, had become the freaking main character. Yeah, you got that right. I was the poor, hopeless Omega whose role in the novel was to be a weak, helpless, yet stubborn guy who was sold for his huge debt, bought by four powerful Alphas in order to become a breeding machine. They might as well make me their baby mama while they were at it, don't you think? But there was no way I was going to live up to that role. Seriously, why resist being showered with the luxury of life and getting hurt when I could just give them a little neck massage, say a few sweet words to compliment them, and then lie on my back with sun shades on and juice in hand, relaxing for the rest of my life? Maybe it's not as easy as it sounds but I could make it work. I was sure I could. With four powerful Alphas ruling the country at my mercy, I could do anything. But... Were they really at my mercy, though? I mean, I was the one whose huge debt got paid off, right? Welp, maybe I was getting a little over my head. What to do?

“The Gods have abandoned us.” They called it the Cataclysm—Kalyug, Ragnarök, Titanomachy, the Great Flood. Different names. Same meaning: The End. The skies shattered. Oceans boiled. The universe folded in on itself like a dying star. The Age of Gods was snuffed out in divine silence. But not all light died. A single ember survived—fragile, stubborn, burning against the dark. It drifted through the cosmic wreckage, searching for sanctuary. Instead, it was found. From the edge of reality came something older than the gods—the Primordial Darkness. With no divine left, its descent was unchallenged. The Gods of Neverending Darkness swept across the last fragment of creation, enslaving all that survived. In humanity’s final hour, the shattered races united in desperation. They managed to drive back the invaders, for now. Here began the story of Rudra. Just a crippled boy gifted with the weakest ‘White Talent’ in a world where birth decides worth. But fate made one mistake— It let him live. Now, in a world where every survivor is born with a Talent—from the common White to the legendary Gold—Rudra’s journey begins at the very bottom. Mocked, overlooked, and broken, he began his journey for the Ascension to the Divine. Because in this world, or any other, one law holds true: "Only a God can kill a God." #MythicDarkFantasy #CrippledMC #GodkillerRising #OverpoweredMC

I looked at him with utter contempt, my gaze as cold as frost spreading across my face: “You filthy poultry, what part of you thinks you're worthy of me?” I spat each word with biting clarity, holding nothing back. No matter how beautiful the human form he wore, he was still just a feathered beast at heart, no better than the chickens and ducks outside. The man before me was breathtakingly handsome, his sharp eyes like a hawk’s. Yet he didn’t flare up in anger. Instead, he let out a cold, mocking smile. Raising one hand, he gripped my chin tightly, eyes blazing like fire: “I am a Phoenix,” he growled: “King of all living things! And you dare compare me to common barnyard fowl? Do you want me to snap your neck right here?” But I didn’t flinch. Instead, I met his fury with a calm, deliberate smirk: “Go ahead. It’s not like you’ve ever had the guts to follow through.” He went silent for a few seconds, the tension thick between us. Then, all of a sudden, he released my chin, only to pull me into his arms, holding me so tightly it felt like he was afraid I might vanish. His voice dropped, no longer seething with rage, but laced with a strange tenderness: “Could you stop being so stubborn? I’ve given you everything... What more do I need to do to make you happy?” His embrace tightened again, desperate and trembling. As if letting go, even a little, would cause me to disappear. In his eyes, there was helplessness, pain, and something else rising to the surface, something raw, unnamed, and overpowering.
