Burning Sensation After Nightfall

In traditional beliefs, burying a whole corpse is a sign of respect for the deceased, while cremation is considered a great disrespect. Only corpses that have undergone strange transformations or display ominous signs are subjected to burning. The practitioners of this dark art, known as corpse burners, face extreme danger in their trade. Especially at midnight, when one corpse burner works alone in a locked room, if the body turns into a vengeful spirit, the burner is certain to die. Qin He, a corpse burner working at the canal docks of the chaotic Da Li Dynasty, makes a living from this perilous occupation. For him, facing not just the dead, but the unknown threats they might carry, has become routine. His life had been uneventful—until the mysterious “corpse-burning reward” system emerged, turning his world upside down. This reward promised a generous payout for the burning of dangerous corpses, but it also pulled him deeper into a web of peril. As the rewards grow, Qin He’s choices begin to shrink. He becomes bolder, with no fear of the malevolent corpses that might rise again. Slowly, he begins to entwine his fate with ever-greater risks. In each life-or-death situation, he not only battles the dead but struggles with his own inner turmoil. In this turbulent era, Qin He’s destiny is inevitably tied to darkness, death, and the transformed bodies he burns. As he delves deeper into the art of corpse-burning, where will it lead him? Everything hangs in the balance, waiting for him to make his next move.

After Miyuki has completely broken up with her boyfriend John. She decides to move out and start a new life, to get away from all that has happened to her.

As she had in thought, "This day just couldn't get worst, can it?".

For centuries, werewolves and vampires have waged a bloody war, bound by an ancient curse that neither side can escape. And at the heart of it all—Celestine Valtora, the girl fated to break the cycle of destruction. She thought she was human. She was wrong. Hunted by both factions, Celestine discovers that her blood holds the power to awaken a force even darker than the war itself. The ruthless vampire king, Draven Dragovic, wants to use her to reclaim his throne, while the brooding alpha werewolf, Lucien Vale, will do anything to keep her from falling into the wrong hands—even if it means claiming her as his own. But fate is never kind. When Celestine’s past unravels and buried secrets come to light, she must make an impossible choice: surrender to destiny, or forge her own path in a world that wants to consume her. The blood moon is rising. And with it, the end of everything she once knew.

There were three rules to working for CEO Karsten Chevalier. First, bring his coffee brimming hot and black like a starless night. Second, park your attitude outside his office door—his broody demeanour has the room covered. Third, never say ‘No’ to whatever he demands. Not even when he asks you to become his fake girlfriend? (Synopsis) Arata's fiance dumped her through a text on the day of their engagement party. The reason? She is too curvy for his taste! He only entertained her because of her prestigious family name. "Do you think men want a fatso like you? You're nothing without your family's name!" A heartbroken Arata sets out on a journey to discover herself without revealing she is the daughter of a billionaire. She moves to another city, away from her beloved family. ‘How dare he insult me? I love my curves and I will show him.’ Arata is not a damsel; her parents have raised her strong, and now it is time to become independent. Her heart is ablaze with newfound goals. One: to see how people will treat her if she acts like an ordinary girl and hides her identity. Two: to bag a bigger fish than her stinking—joke of an ex-fiancé. She will prove that a man will genuinely love her irrespective of her curves and surname! Arata's new life begins as the secretary of Karsten Chevalier, the CEO of a multinational clothing brand who is renowned for his dashing personality and enigmatic persona. Not much is publicly known about this man. Doused in mystery, the man has his own goals and hidden agenda which will topple Arata's world. Unfortunately, Karsten's handsome face becomes a punching bag in Arata's mind because of his ruthlessly demanding personality and ego larger than Mount Everest. Arata eases her frustrations by going to meet Twisted Rider, the currently popular yet mysterious, masked internet sensation. Both tangle under the sheets and he becomes her safe space as she complains and opens up about her boss. "Will you act as my girlfriend?” Karsten's proposal to become a fake girlfriend for his family events surprised Arata! How will Arata juggle the piling demands of her boss, her own heartbreak and the seduction traps of the masked man she loves to watch in her spare time? Will sparks fly between Arata and her colder-than-Arctic ice boss? Or, will she continue to complain to the masked man that her boss probably has a small PP?

Morana, a young lady, who was treated cruely by her family, unwanted by the society, was assassinated by her husband and her supposed step-sister. "Even if I had to crawl out of the depths of hell, I would return. I would make them pay for every lie, every betrayal, every moment of agony they had inflicted on me. And when I did, they would know the full weight of my wrath." Those were her last words before she succumbed to darkeness. But she never expected to be given a second chance at life. "Three hundred and sixty-five days. That is the time you have to carry out your revenge. If you succeed, your soul will be free to move on. But if you fail..." My throat tightened. "If I fail?" The being’s glow darkened, and its voice echoed with finality. "You will cease to exist. Your soul will turn to dust and vanish, leaving no trace of you in any realm."

After the Third World War had ended, peace has returned to the Kingdom of Fuji. But this is only an illusion, as discrimination, poverty, rebels and immense corruption plague the state. To finally bring back true peace, the Kaizen Academy was created; a military institution to train and bring forth elite soldiers that will hopefully lead the country into a better future. Kawakami Rei, one of the people who got accepted into the academy, now has to fight through the brutal training, carry the burden of an entire country and face his own personal trauma.

MATURE CONTENT WARNING!!: These people be getting freaky in the sheets! "You think I haven’t noticed your eyes on me?" Kai En's voice was dangerously low, his lips curled into a cruel smile. "The way they linger— you can’t decide whether to kill me or kiss me. Am I right, little alpha?" ... For as long as Jun could remember, vengeance had been his only purpose. The last survivor of a disgraced family, he vowed to tear down the empire that destroyed his life, starting with its most prized jewel—Prince Feng Kai En.  Now, under the guise of Xiao Liu, a lowly servant in the prince’s retinue, he plans his revenge. But nothing could have prepared him for what awaited within the palace walls. Neither Xiao Liu’s sharp blades nor detailed plans were good enough to fall the man behind the title. Every failed assassination attempt and heated exchange left him more entangled with the man he was meant to destroy. Kai En—ruthless, untouchable, and powerful. An alpha in the eyes of all. Xiao Liu uncovered the prince’s greatest secret—beneath the façade lay something far more dangerous and vulnerable. Something Xiao Liu intended to exploit. Duty had always been Kai En’s burden. Yet Xiao Liu’s presence stirred emotions long buried—desires with no place in his world. Every attempt on his life only deepened the prince’s fascination, pulling him into the chaos Xiao Liu brought. As war looms and enemies close in, their dangerous dance intensifies. Desire grows where hate once ruled, pulling them into a storm of violence, lust, and something deeper. “You’ll never belong to anyone else,” Xiao Liu snarled, his lips finding Kai En’s neck again, biting down hard. “Not her. Not anyone. You belong to me.” Xiao Liu knows Kai En is the key to his revenge, but the more their lives tangle, the harder it becomes to tell if it’s vengeance he craves… or the prince himself. And Kai En must face the ultimate test that could break his kingdom and heart. Can Xiao Liu destroy the man he’s come to obsess over, or will he fall first?

Authors side note: I may not release a chapter daily, doesn't mean I dropped the book. Good books take time, not to tune my own horn but it's true. I'll release a minimum of 4 times a week cause life makes me busy. Also, 36k words before locked chapters, might seem early but that's what can I say. Thank you for understanding. #darkcomedy #psychological #strategy #zombies #survival there would be one more tag here but it would be a spoiler :)

November 17th. A day that should have been ordinary became the day the world fell apart. The Collapse—a disaster unlike any other—destroyed over 80% of the population in a single stroke. Entire cities were reduced to ruins, the rules of nature were rewritten, and strange, otherworldly forces began to seep into the cracks of reality. Those who survived were left to navigate a world where power comes at a price, and despair looms around every corner. Silas Grayson was a man who always preferred the background, someone who never sought the limelight. But when the Collapse shattered the world, it shattered Silas’s quiet existence, too. Now, in a reality that demands action, he must navigate a landscape where ruins grant strange Authorities, rulers thrive on corruption, and whispers of beings far beyond human understanding begin to surface. As he ventures deeper into this harsh new world, Silas clings to hope—a fragile, flickering light in the darkness. But when despair threatens to crush even that, he must grapple with the question: How does a man hold on to hope in a world that seems designed to take it away? The Collapse didn’t just destroy the world—it created a new one. And surviving it will demand more than Silas ever thought he could give.

In a post-apocalyptic world, you'll find four main types of people. Those who fight with all their might "the hunters." The ones who leech and exploit others "the pests." The predators, who see everyone as prey. And lastly, we have "the survivors," the resilient ones who never give up. Everyone often fits into one category, but it's hard to determine which one Maya falls into. She's not exactly a fighter, considering leaving her room was a chore even before the apocalypse. A predator? No way—she's always been a pushover. You might think she's a survivor, but that's laughable. She'd rather die from starvation than resort to scavenging. So, how should we categorize her? leeche? Nope. Perhaps a new category is needed: "The Lost"—those struggling to find their place in a shattered world."

(Nero with the Burning Flames) In the mountain village of Emberstead, where fire magic is both a gift and a curse, Nero has always been different. His flames burn hotter, wilder—untamed and unpredictable. But when the dark Firelord Nachogi descends upon his home, seeking to consume all light and power, Nero’s destiny is set ablaze. Entrusted with the Sacred Flame by his fallen master, Aizen, Nero must learn to control his fire before it controls him. With his closest friends, Angel and Nagel, by his side, he embarks on a journey of brutal training, devastating battles, and self-discovery. But Nachogi’s darkness is unlike anything the world has faced before. His Devouring Flames don’t just burn—they erase. And he is after Nero’s power, believing it to be the key to his ultimate victory. As war ignites, Nero must confront his deepest fears, rage, and doubts. Will his fire be a weapon of destruction—or a light that saves his people? A battle of fire and fate begins. The flames of destiny will either consume or illuminate.

The world is not as it seems. Supernatural beings lurk in the shadows, their existence buried beneath centuries of human fear and oppression. Urekston, a half-demon, half-dragon outcast, has spent his life hiding what he is—until the night everything burns. Framed for a crime he didn’t commit, hunted by a world that despises his kind, Urekston has only one choice: fight back or be erased. But as he gathers allies—each more broken and dangerous than the last—he begins to realize that the real enemy isn’t just humanity’s prejudice. It’s the gods themselves. Betrayal runs deep, and the flames of rebellion are rising. In a world where monsters are condemned simply for existing, how far would you go to survive?

No ambitious man will keep his sanity when he knows the exact moment of his death without achieving anything he ever hoped to achieve. But what if that same man was revived with powers beyond human comprehension? ... Will he sacrifice everything to find the truth or try his best to live a normal life?..

✦ LUCYLLE, the land that bears witness to both life and death. Shaken by the arrival of a hellish entity five centuries ago, humanity now basks in an era of prolonged peace—growing ever more complacent, ever more blind to the very cause that once brought the world to the brink of ruin. ✧ ✦ As the great castle bell tolls, the long night begins. Some whisper that history will merely repeat itself, while others pray—to a silent god, to the void that offers no answer. ✦ ✧ ✦ ❝There are two kinds of hell in this world—the one inhabited by demons, and the one forged by human hands.❞

There exists no obstruction for a one-track mind like Latona Cassel's. If there is no path laid at her feet, she will carve her own instead.

So when Latona sets her eye on something indispensable, she isn't afraid to seize it, even if it means clawing a prize out of another's hands. For the sky may be the limit, but her desire to possess goes beyond it. Yet one pathetic truth remains—she still foolishly holds out for Gideon Regis who has severed her hands before she ever had the chance. After all, Gideon is nothing without his rigid morals. He lives only to follow what have been established for him: obedience, honor, family values. If he were to step even an inch outside those lines, hell itself would be damned. But amidst lingering stares and tension palpable in the air, how do you brush off the scorching ardency that gnaws at your bones? Storms have been stirred. Nights have fallen. Do you douse in resolution, or do you let it all burn and consume? [Written in Tagalog and English]
