I WAS JUST A SERVANT By Samkelisiwe Sithole (Mbazo) Zenande Mthembu was born into power, wealth, and pride — but one tragic car accident left her in a wheelchair, abandoned by her husband, and locked inside a golden prison of silence and bitterness. Once adored by society, now she's just the angry rich girl no one can help. Until Nokwanda walks in. Late for the job interview, dressed plainly as a servant, Nokwanda never expected to meet a woman like Zenande — fierce, arrogant, and secretly broken. But where others ran away, Nokwanda stayed. She saw the truth behind Zenande’s cold stares… and heard the silent cry for love. As Nokwanda cares for Zenande, the lines between duty and desire blur. Zenande, once married to a man, begins to feel something she's never felt before — not just attraction, but safety, softness, and the terrifying beauty of being loved by a woman. But love doesn’t come easily when society watches, secrets threaten, and someone from Zenande’s past is determined to destroy them both. “I Was Just a Servant” is a slow-burn, forbidden romance between two women from different worlds — one fighting to heal, and the other daring to love for the first time.

When Aria Lane’s family is drowning in debts they can’t repay, she makes the one choice she swore she never would: she sells herself.

In his glass-and-steel penthouse high above the city, Aria is both captive and temptation, fighting to hold onto the last scraps of her pride while Luca tests every boundary she tries to set. He is possessive, ruthless, and unreasonably patient. She is defiant, furious, and terrified of how much she wants him to want her for more than what she can give. And when the lines blur between power and passion, between hatred and desire, Aria discovers there are things even more dangerous than loving a man like Luca Cross like falling for the parts of him he swears he doesn’t have. Because some chains can’t be broken. Some secrets can’t stay hidden. And some claims are forever.

Fame, Power, Money... All were worldly desires that couldn't make Mason Goldenheart, the strongest Hero under God, blink. After fighting in the tumultuous Holy War against the Devil and Demon King for half a century, Mason, with the sacrifice of those he held dear, was finally able to vanquish his foes and bring about an end to the Holy War. With the Demon King's fall came the Devil's end, as God, the great Creator and Saviour of humanity, put the treacherous abomination to rest, and ushered in 100 years of respite. Yet, despite this, all was for nought in Mason’s eyes. As decades passed, an incessantly seeping regret continued to poison his heart. The regret of not being strong enough. Not only had he failed to save his loved ones, but he'd also fruitlessly fought, and tried, and struggled to save the now billions of lost lives across the ravaged Earth. And so, at the turn of the century, long after the Devil and his Demon King's defeat, Mason, whose heart had grown as sullen as rock, confronted God with one simple plea. And it was on that fateful day that he would finally know the truth, a hidden ploy of two men which changed the fates of countless lives. A truth which would forever alter his own fate, pushing him along a path of vengeance and struggles across a cosmos much grander than once thought.

Kazuki was a loner, an ordinary young man who lived in the shadow of the world, always unnoticed and disconnected from those around him. Life passed him by in the mundane, without excitement or companionship, until a mysterious force pulled him into a new world—a sprawling ancient fantasy realm teeming with magic, supernatural forces, and powerful beings beyond imagination. At first, Kazuki was full of hope, thinking he’d finally been given the opportunity for something greater. However, this new world was no paradise. Betrayed by those he trusted, abandoned to die in a brutal struggle for survival, Kazuki faced his darkest moment... but death wasn’t the end. Reborn with a new awareness, Kazuki returned to life in this strange world, stronger and wiser than before. No longer the passive, trusting soul he once was, he has now become something much more dangerous—a man with a new resolve and a thirst for power. His once-lonely existence is filled with purpose, and now he walks a darker path. Vengeance burns in his heart as he begins his quest to discover the truth behind his betrayal and the mysteries of this world. Kazuki is not alone in this journey. By his side is Seraphina, a cunning and ruthless slime with the ability to shift between forms. Her cute and playful nature hides her true potential in battle—where she’s ruthless and terrifying, able to absorb, copy, and steal the abilities of those she faces, making her an indispensable companion. Together, they form a dangerous duo, each feeding off the other's hunger for power. The world Kazuki now inhabits is unlike any he’s ever known. This ancient realm is divided into multiple regions, each filled with unique magic, supernatural beings, and towering cities lost to time. From towering wizards who command the elements, to warriors blessed by the gods, and strange creatures of myth that lurk in forgotten lands, this world is a place where the strong survive, and the weak perish. Magic and superpowers flow through the veins of the land, shaping the lives of its inhabitants. Ancient mysteries lie hidden within the ruins of lost civilizations, where powerful relics and long-forgotten spells await those bold enough to uncover them. But Kazuki soon learns that he is not the only one who has been summoned to this realm. Other powerful individuals from various worlds—be they summoned heroes, legendary warriors, or gods cast down from their celestial thrones—are brought here either by fate, chance, or force. Some arrive with dreams of conquest, while others merely seek a way home. These Isekai-ed warriors hold powers that could shatter the very fabric of reality, and Kazuki will face them in battles for survival, alliances, and dominance. As Kazuki delves deeper into this strange and brutal world, he discovers an unknown power lying dormant within him—an ability that no one, not even the gods of this world, fully understands. With each battle, his strength grows, and the dark potential within him starts to awaken, making him a force to be reckoned with. He and Seraphina are drawn into a web of interdimensional conflicts, where beings from other worlds clash for control, power, or simply survival. Kazuki’s rebirth grants him not only a second chance but a path to becoming something far greater—perhaps even the one who could reshape this world, or destroy it. With new companions, formidable foes, and hidden powers, Kazuki must navigate a dangerous world filled with supernatural forces, treacherous alliances, and ancient secrets. Will he rise to become the master of his destiny, or will he fall once again, betrayed by those who seek to control his newfound power? In this world of magic, gods, and monsters, only the strongest will survive—and Kazuki is determined to claim his place among them.
