Luci Morningstar

Aveline Sinclair never imagined she'd get a second chance at life—let alone wake up as the villainess in a world straight out of a dark fantasy novel. Now, she’s Seraphina Devereaux, the cold and cunning fiancée of a tyrant king. And she knows exactly how her story is supposed to end—at his hands. Determined to escape her doomed fate, Seraphina plans to run far from King Lucian Duskbane before he can ruin her life. But there’s just one problem… he won’t let her go. Lucian isn’t just the villain of this world—he’s the kind of man who takes what he wants. And right now, the only thing he wants is her. Trapped between fear and a dangerous attraction, Seraphina must find a way to survive. But the more she fights him, the more obsessed he becomes. And soon, she starts to wonder… is it possible to change a villain’s fate? Or will she fall for the monster destined to destroy her?

Her Dark Obsession A Dark Fantasy Romance Prologue: The Unseen Watcher The night air was thick with magic. Lucian stood in the shadows, watching her. He had watched her for years, unseen and unnoticed, his presence lingering in the corners of her world. Sophia was human—or so she thought. Living a normal life, laughing with her friends, excelling in school, and basking in the love of her foster parents. She was perfection wrapped in innocence, oblivious to the dark forces that circled her, waiting for her awakening. And now, the time had come. Her transformation was beginning. Lucian clenched his fists. He knew what this meant. Every supernatural being that felt the surge of her power would come for her—some to worship, some to kill, and others, like him, to claim. She was his fated mate. The prophecy was clear. And yet, she didn’t know him. Not yet. But she would.

Selene Valcrest, an elite huntress, belonging to the revered Order of Lumina, has dedicated her life towards the extermination of vampires. Currently, she holds the belief that her quest entails protecting mankind from the seductive embrace of darkness. However, her ideology is bound to heavily shift once she encounters Lucian Draven, who happens to be an exiled mysterious vampire prince. His presence among the living is powerful enough to shatter Selene’s deepest and darkest restrictions.  There exists an ancient prophecy wherein Selene and Lucian are linked together on an unforeseen bond that neither seem willing to sever. With the onset of war within the various clans of vampires and the Order, Selene is placed in a position unlike any other. Now, she has the option to either comply with the duty that has governed her life or give into her instincts towards Lucian who represents the destruction of the entire world as she knows it.  Lucian is Not any run-of-the-mill vampire. He emerges from a lineage of the first vampires, the Primordials, making him capable of bringing either dark salvation or eternal despair. As adversaries close onto Selene, she and Lucian must put everything on the line to fight their inner demons while trying their hardest to escape from the dark clutches of betrayal.

Lucian Vale wasn’t meant to be important. He wasn’t meant to be anything. A coward by nature, too bitter to live but too terrified to die. His plan was simple—wander until fate finally put him out of his misery. Then the universe, in its endless spite, threw him into a Dimensional Portal. Now, trapped in the space between worlds, Lucian wakes up with an ability he never asked for—Dimensional Summoner. A power that not only lets him summon creatures to fight in his place but also ensures he evolves into a Dimensional Being himself. With an absurdly broken Evolution Class, he walks the cosmos, spreading misery and chaos. He was neither a hero, nor a villain. Just a nobody consumed by jealousy. ------- Additional Tags : #Level up #Monsters

"The only thing certain in life Is death." ____ WSA 2025 Entry ____ I was born a worthless peasant in a magical world where one's talent determines one's worth, but I was happy. I had loving parents and a little sister—she meant the world to me. But they took them all from me. They said my father offended a noble and they killed him and my mother. Our uncles and aunt turned their back on Lucy and me—afraid they might offend the noble by taking us in. I am only fifteen, for god sake, and Lucy is just ten! Forget about me, just take care of her, please! This town abandoned us. This kingdom abandoned us. This empire abandoned us. It's cold out here but I guess it doesn't matter since I'll be dead soon. Lucy left to be with Mum and Dad—I held her in my arms while it happened. Soon, I'll join them, and all this pain will end... "You have suffered enough, take my hand and I will give you a way out." The voice came from the most beautiful man I have ever seen. His beautiful face looked at me with tender eyes—I felt the warmth Lucy, and I needed these past 3 months. But it's too late, I don't want a way out. I just want to die and rest, this life is too cruel! "What if I tell you we can bring Lucy, your Mum and Dad? Would you take my hand?" What?! "While we do that, we can avenge their death. You can make those nobles pay. All these and more I offer; just take my hand." Who are you?

A woman from Hull was never meant to wear a crown. And yet, today, they would place one on her head. Verona Falkenrath has spent her life among the wild forests and untamed lands of Hull, a province scorned by the noble courts of Praylor. To them, she and her people are nothing more than barbarians. Useful for their resources but unworthy of standing among kings. When she is forced into an arranged marriage with Prince Lucian Velthorne, Verona knows what is expected of her: be silent, be obedient, and be grateful. But Verona has never known how to kneel. Lucian never wanted a wife, especially not one from Hull. Cold, calculating, and bred for power, he sees their union as nothing more than a political necessity. She is a means to an end, a bridge to keep Hull under Praylor’s control. But from the moment Verona enters his court, she defies him at every turn. Fierce, untamed, and impossible to ignore. Yet behind the whispers of their unlikely marriage, something far more dangerous is brewing. A neighboring country has begun sowing rebellion in Hull’s shadows, promising freedom from Praylor’s rule. When Verona uncovers the plot, she faces an impossible choice: stay loyal to her homeland, or betray those who would see it burn. But Lucian has his own doubts. When the rebellion reaches its peak, can he truly trust the woman he once swore was his enemy? Bound by duty, divided by war, and drawn together by something neither of them expected, Verona and Lucian must decide. Is their marriage just another political game, or the beginning of a love that could reshape kingdoms?

I told you he would awaken a trash talent.” “All that potential, for an F-ranker?” His girlfriend who awakened a C-rank talent, “What a waste, Lucian. My father took you in for nothing!” His best-friend who awakened an A-rank talent, “You know, seeing you so weak and vulnerable is kind of refreshing. She always hated your endless confidence, so do I. It’s no wonder she comes to me after being done with you.” Lucian, who was respected and envied now turned to a joke to the entire school and town. “Boom!” Those who he called friends attacked him, leaving him for dead in the Galactic Tower. … [Ding!] [Congratulations! 100,000x Reroll has been triggered!] [Self Regeneration (F-Rank) has evolved into Extreme Ungodly Regeneration (SSS-Rank)!] ──────────────────────── [Ungodly Regeneration] ▪ Class Rank: SSS ▪ Class Perk: — +∞% Vitality | x300% Mana (SSS) ▪ Class Skills: ➤ (SSS) Ungodly Regeneration: Instantly regenerates from any injury.

-Participating in WSA- In a world where fate is dictated by prophecy, heroes are chosen by the gods, and Dark Lords are doomed to fall… Lucian Draeven refuses to play along. Once feared as the greatest Dark Lord in history, Lucian had the world under his iron rule—until the so-called Chosen Hero struck him down in a blinding flash of divine justice. The kingdoms cheered. The world rejoiced. Too bad Lucian isn’t actually dead. Having faked his demise and gone into hiding, Lucian watches from the shadows as a new Dark Lord rises, more reckless and incompetent than ever. Worse, the gods have selected another overly enthusiastic, sword-swinging Chosen Hero to bring “peace” once again. The problem? Neither of them have a clue how to actually rule the world. As kingdoms crumble, wars break out, and the balance of power teeters on the edge of collapse, Lucian comes to a horrifying realization: If the world is going to survive, then it’s up to him—the so-called villain—to secretly fix everything from the shadows. But there's just one little catch… Lucian’s legendary Dominions are still sealed, and the only way to regain his strength is by playing the role of a villain once more—spreading fear, manipulating his enemies, and pulling the strings behind the scenes. Now, as the oblivious Hero and foolish new Dark Lord battle it out, neither realizes that the true mastermind is watching their every move. Because if the world wants a villain… Then Lucian will be the greatest villain it has ever seen.

[IT'S NETORI, not the disgusting Netorare] Lucian wasn’t expecting much after reincarnation—just the usual fresh start, maybe a cheat ability. Instead, he found himself in a world where women hold all the power, men are seen as weak, and the story itself seems scripted—heroes, villains, and destined heroines all playing their roles. The problem? Lucian isn’t the hero. He isn’t even the villain. Heck he isn't even a side character. But he refuses to stay that way. Armed with a hacker’s mind, an unbreakable will, and a thirst for power, he begins bending the rules of this world, rewriting the script to suit his own design. And before long, the so-called protagonist and fate will realize—Lucian isn’t just playing their game. He’s breaking it. Because in a world where strength is everything, he won’t just rise to the top—he’ll crush anyone who dares stand in his way. Not the hero the world wants, nor the hero the world needs but the Psycho that the world gets... ---------------------- **Bonus Chapter Alert! four to five extra chapters for a super gift.

She always had a basketball in her hand for as long as she could remember but she was diagnosed with her illnesses at birth. But she still played but was limited on how long she could by her couch, parents, and doctor. But her love for the game and drive kept her going but there was also something else, her best friend Lucy they were childhood friends and grew up playing together. She would always support her and be there for her when she needed her Lucy also was a star player and captain of the team she was head and shoulders above the rest. With Yang limitations she wasn't able to be on the court with her for long even though she was talented the game put a lot of strain on her body so she would sit most of the game or sit out one half of it. She wanted to be able to play as long as she could without the limitations placed on her and play with the one that she loved and chased after. But in highschool Lucy got an offer of where she could go to a prestigious renowned all girl highschool that was the best in girls basketball. They offered Lucy to join them after this season and if she managed to lead the team to the playoff for the 3 third time making it 3 years straight or win MVP this year it would be an all paid scholarship.

She thought she would lose Lucy at this rate until one day at practice when she over sorted herself at practice a screen popped up in front of her asking one question will you sacrifice your body to achieve your wishes?

Power is not taken—it is owed. Lucian Smith was just an ordinary reader, a man who devoured stories of ruthless kings and untouchable mafia dynasties. But when fate grants him a second life, he awakens in the very world he once read about—as Lucian Valenciari, heir to the strongest mafia family in existence. The Valenciari Family, feared as "The Silver Serpents," controls the shadows of Eredia, shaping both the underworld and high society. Their legendary bloodline ability, Sovereign Serpent’s Dominion, bends fate itself. And Lucian? He has inherited a power so overwhelming that even his own family fears what he may become. But strength alone is not enough. In a world ruled by ancient bloodlines, betrayals, and unseen wars, Lucian must outplay rivals, silence enemies, and carve his own throne in a world where the weak are devoured. Because the Valenciari do not beg. They do not bow. They collect their debts. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hey there, dear reader! So, let me tell you—I’ve been working on this story for over a year. That’s 365+ days of writing, rewriting, questioning my life choices, drinking way too much coffee, and staring at my screen like a mafia boss plotting world domination. Every single chapter has been edited, re-edited, and then edited again (because apparently, I enjoy suffering). But why? Because I love this world. I wanted to create something that feels alive—a world where power isn’t just about brute strength but about strategy, deception, and knowing exactly when to strike.
