Pursuit X

Orphic Engagement: In Pursuit of Lost Love

[All she ever yearned for was to be seen, not just in passing, but to be truly witnessed and embraced by the warmth of genuine love.] [All he ever yearned for was to reunite with her, to love her once more.] ________ Nikolas and his fiancé, Lyle, met a tragic end at sea, their dreams unfulfilled as cold, dark waters claimed them. In this new realm, one forgot their shared past, while the other tirelessly sought his lost lover, holding onto the hope that fate had brought them both to this enchanted world. __________ The Abandoned Princess, Raelixe Klair Herschel and the Great Young Duke, Nikolas Zorana. Raelixe, a princess forsaken by her own family and kingdom. At 18, she faced accusations of poisoning her half-brother, the Crown Prince, and met her demise at the hands of her own father during her execution. "I am certain that not even the devils will want a useless wretch like you." These words echoed as her father's sword pierced her chest. Just as she believed she'd reached Elysium, she awoke in her thirteen-year-old self! Driven by vengeance and the thirst for power, she'll stop at nothing to assume the role of the ultimate villainess in this life. "No longer will I endure the abuse as the meek princess. This time, I shall seize the throne with force and obliterate any who dare to obstruct my path!" __________ Nikolas, the Young Duke of Zorana, harbors a secret he intends to carry to his grave. By the Emperor of Sol's command, he was dispatched to the Kingdom of Haniel, where an unexpected encounter awaited him: the young Princess Raelixe, who implored him for his hand in marriage. "Marry me, Duke Nikolas Helios Zorana!" "It's rather peculiar to wed someone you've just met, but very well. Henceforth, you shall be the future duchess of Zorana." "I knew you wouldn't agree so readily, so I—wait, what?" "I shall accept your proposal, Princess Raelixe. Yet, there is one condition..." Their sudden engagement was beyond understanding. [Orphic Engagement] ....... [EXCEPT 1] Nikolas couldn't help but be captivated by Raelixe's radiant smile. Her gentle, emerald eyes glistened like precious gems bathed in the sun's embrace. "Her true nature is far removed from the façade she wears." This radiant young woman was no villain. She was a child betrayed by those she held dear, craving her parents' affection and the love of her people. She bore the scars of childhood wounds, much like my beloved Lyle. Yet, deep within, I understood she wasn't Lyle. And for the sake of the love I hold for my life's true companion, I could not allow myself to love her. ..... [EXCEPT 2] I often find myself entranced by his enchanting blood-red eyes, wondering why such beauty perpetually conceals a sense of sorrow. Whenever our hands touch, a genuine smile graces his face momentarily. However, an ominous shadow soon clouds his eyes, and he releases my hand. Occasionally, I catch him gazing at me with intense scrutiny—or perhaps, through me, as though seeking someone else. Always in search of that elusive figure. I ponder the identity of this elusive person, the role they played in his sadness, and whether he truly sees me for who I am when he looks at me. Will there ever come a time when he gazes at me without that lingering sadness? I yearn for the moment when I can hold his hand without him pulling away, without that dark cloud descending over his eyes. He remains an enigma that I can't decipher. ............

It is one of the few last remaining bastions of humanity after the near extinction of mankind due to the ever-prevalent threat called...the H.E.X. Humanity isn't going down without a fight however, and are constantly developing better starships and other weaponry to tackle what has become...an ever evolving enemy. The most state of the art weapons to emerge in the last millenia is none other than the Titan Exoframe, or...just Exoframe for short; A giant humanoid fighting robot that's more agile than a starship, more versatile than a starfighter, and capable of being crewed by...a single pilot. The only downside: the pilot has to be able to interface with an enigmatic A.I and become one with the machine, and the genetically engineered pilots of the Nobility are the best suited for this role. Enter...eighteen-year-old Hudiya Luffe Arnestria, a young-man on a desperate quest to save his ailing sister, Atilla. His only hope lies in securing a coveted spot at Aldressia Academy, a prestigious military school for Exoframe pilots located on the Colossus. When the noble and beautiful Valencia challenges him to place in the top ten of the entrance exam, Hudiya finds himself entangled in a world of fierce competition; while facing constant threats of sabotage from his ever envious peers. His only way forward...is straight through his competitors. Follow him as he fights for everything he holds dear, while forming cryptic alliances with fellow students and facing betrayal at every turn. (And you get a cute little sister to love and cherish on the side!) What to expect: This is an Alpha-Omega/Omegaverse story (the kind with the crazy pheromones). (( This is not a fanfiction of any kind. Alpha-Omega is basically a genre. This is not a shared universe with any other story. It merely shares a similar genre to those other stories. This is a completely original novel)) This is also a Genderbender/Genderswap story! Has LGBT elements. There is romance. It may have some of the elements of a harem, though that is not the primary element of it. There may be sexual content later on if the site permits it and I feel like it fits the storyline. Target Chapter Length: 10,000 words Target Interlude Length: 2,000 to 4,000 words (Smaller chapters in between the primary chapters that usually are told from the POV of the supporting characters) *Was trying to publish this on RoyalRoad originally, but thats currently pending. We'll see what happens at this point. For right now, it's exclusive to here.
