Winged Heart Stained Glass

Evryn, a young man living on the outskirts of the planet Sythar, never intended to travel the galaxy—one shaped by cultures, races, and deep-seated conflict (and a little bit of racism). Forced to flee his home, he embarks on a journey that will change him forever. But what awaits him beyond the stars?

This story is about love, revenge, the quest for power, and the right to exist. After being betrayed by his childhood crush and losing his loved ones to a human raid, Erik, a werewolf, ends up on another planet for seven years before he returns to a vastly changed, post-apocalyptic Earth. Originally a timid, unadventurous man, Erik has become far more dominant and assertive upon his return. Together with him comes his beloved but ruthless soul-bound partner and fairy, Elora, who wants Erik to rule and conquer with her by his side. Elora's presence alone makes Erik more powerful than others at this level, but will he find out what else makes him special? Follow them as they use the knowledge and strength they gained on Söl to navigate an Earth filled with magic, vampires, shapeshifters, and more. Along the way, Erik and Elora will meet a diverse cast of characters, some of whom Erik might have known in the past, and some he did not, but all with their own story and desires. Will Erik be able to take revenge for the betrayals of the past? And what else will he discover along the way? ****** Disclaimer: There will be some R18 scenes, but most of the time, they will be a part of character development and not simply smut. In other words, if you decide to skip them, you'll likely miss out on some character development, but I promise to keep plot development out of it. No NTR No Yuri (there might be interactions between girls when there is a scene with the MC and more than one woman, though the MC will always be the focus. To be clear, yuri means a romantic/physical relationship between two women, meaning no two women will ever have sexual interactions with each other without the MC present. That said, Elora enjoys serving women up to him on a platter, and watching him have sex with them. She enjoys dominating, observing. and playing with the other women in the MC's harem together with him, and thus will occasionally join him in such a way. I don't believe any of that is technically yuri, but I understand that my interpretation is debatable and if any of those things weird you out, I advice you to avoid this novel.)

“In a house divided by status, secrets, and the whisper of wings, freedom feels as distant as the stars.” When Laura Charles takes a position at the prestigious Wyndham Estate, she plans to keep her head down, her past hidden, and her heart untangled. Among the polished silver and immaculate halls, she’s determined to play her part as the perfect lady's maid: quiet, diligent, and invisible. But nothing at Wyndham is as simple as it seems. From Amber, the exuberant housemaid, to Mrs. Hobbs, the sharp and rigid housekeeper, the servants' hall brims with personalities as complex as the estate itself. Among them is Aleksi, a towering, sharp-tongued footman whose presence stirs something Laura can't quite define. As their paths cross in unexpected ways, sparks fly—not of romance but of class tension and sharp disdain. Yet beneath the barbs and silences lies an unsettling intensity that neither can fully ignore. Meanwhile, the estate hides more than just its opulent splendor. Foreign servants whisper in a language Laura doesn’t understand, and the weight of expectations crushes everyone under the roof, noble or not. In a world where every glance and gesture is a battle for survival, trust becomes a dangerous luxury, and the line between ally and enemy blurs. As the seasons shift and the stakes rise, Laura finds herself trapped between two wings: the strict confines of duty and the yearning for something more—freedom, perhaps, or even love. But how far will she go to protect herself when her heart and her carefully constructed walls are both at risk of crumbling? Between Wings is a tale of class, romance, and survival, where every choice is fraught with danger and even the smallest kindness can have far-reaching consequences.

Guys here is my pitch..... In the sprawling world of fantasy, we’ve often been treated to tales of heroes reincarnated with divine blessings, legendary powers, or cheat-like abilities, thrust into magical lands as shining saviors—or chaotic terrors. But what happens when the very concept of reincarnation becomes a curse? When the divine boon is a big fat joke, and the "cheat system" doesn’t quite… cheat? Enter John, the unluckiest reincarnate. Blessed by a god and thrust into a fantasy world, he dreams of glory, power, and adventure—only to wake up as a normal, utterly powerless bird. Not a mythical phoenix, not an ancient thunder eagle. Just… a bird. To make matters worse, this world is no ordinary realm. It's a land scarred by the devastating legacies of past isekai’d heroes and villains, whose reckless exploits piled skeletons into mountains and turned their cheats into harbingers of chaos. Fed up with these unruly intruders, the ancients of the realm banded together to create a world-shaking seal: all reincarnated souls are trapped in the bodies of harmless animals, confined to isolated sanctuaries that function more like fantasy zoos. Here’s the twist: this isn’t mercy. It’s a resource grab. The powerful beast tamers of this realm have turned these reincarnated souls into exotic pets, prized for their cheat-like potential. John finds himself at the bottom of the food chain in every sense. His cheat doesn’t work. His human form is gone. And his world is filled with predatory cultivators who see him as either a snack or a tool. But John isn’t one to give up so easily. What starts as despair quickly turns into cunning survival. With wings and wit as his only tools, John must navigate layers of misfortune, dodge fate’s sharp talons, and cheat his way through a world determined to keep him grounded. Get ready to join John on a wildly unconventional journey—one where reincarnation isn’t a ticket to greatness, but a death sentence he’s determined to rewrite. His story is one of humor, wit, and persistence, as he explores a world where he is the joke and his survival is the punchline. Main tags: reincarnation/isekai, beast taming cultivation system, comedy, action, adventure. Of course No-harem!

Forge and Glass is a journey of transformation, where Alaric, a young man with untapped potential, begins his quest as a raw, unshaped soul. His journey is a crucible, much like the process of forging metal in fire—burning away impurities, refining the core, and molding it into something strong, beautiful, and purposeful. The challenges Alaric faces are not just physical but spiritual, testing him to the limits of his mind, body, and soul. In a world where fire and glass hold opposing meanings—fire symbolizing strength and perseverance, glass representing fragility and truth—Alaric must learn to balance both extremes within himself. He discovers that the true alchemy of life lies in embracing the tension between strength and vulnerability. Through the trials, lessons, and betrayals he endures, he learns that his true power is found not by avoiding the cracks but by understanding and embracing them. Like a glassmaker shaping fragile material into something beautiful and resilient, Alaric’s journey becomes a process of self-discovery and deep personal growth. He faces hardships that shatter his perception of the world, only to rebuild himself with a clearer, wiser understanding of who he is and what he is capable of. His story is an invitation for readers to reflect on their own paths—how we are all shaped by the challenges we face, how moments of fragility can reveal our greatest strengths, and how the process of self-transformation is often a painful but necessary step towards achieving our fullest potential. Forge and Glass is more than just a story of overcoming trials—it’s a profound exploration of the human spirit. It asks: What happens when we embrace our imperfections? What becomes possible when we stop hiding our brokenness and instead let it reveal our deepest wisdom? This book will inspire anyone who has ever faced adversity, found themselves shattered, and risen from the ashes stronger and more self-aware.
