Say Me Down

They called him invincible. The Warhound of Eldwyn. Even rumored to possess the same strength as the Emperor. In a world where power is awakened, beasts are summoned, and men would kill to stand at the top, Aeron Wylde carved his name in blood and steel. A soldier bound by loyalty. A weapon for the crown. A living legend feared across kingdoms. He bled, killed, and conquered in the King’s name… until the day his King drove a sword through his heart. Betrayed. Abandoned. Left to rot in the very halls he once protected. But because he died bitter and filled with rage, his spirit roamed for several days until he awakened in a nameless village, wearing the skin of a filthy, broken drunkard. Still seething with rage over the King’s betrayal, he vowed to become stronger. What, become the King? He didn’t care about that. In the past, he raised his sword to kill the King’s enemies and protect his soldiers. Now? He’d raise it to their necks… and he wouldn’t stop until he brought vengeance on every last one of those who plotted his death. The problem? In this body, he was weak. Powerless. Barely able to stand and couldn’t even lift a sword with both hands. Most importantly, the former owner of this body didn’t awaken any magic and didn’t seem to have the potential to do so… or so he thought.

Shen Mo was just a college student—until one day, he awakened an extraordinary ability: the power to see all information about anything. Ripe watermelons? Check. Hidden illnesses? Diagnosed at a glance. His landlady's bust size? 35D or 36D, laid bare before his eyes... With such a power, he could have easily changed his life’s trajectory—acing his studies, winning over everyone around him, maybe even launching a wildly successful startup while still young, paving his way to the top of the world… But then, a talking black cat showed up in his apartment. Shen Mo: "Who are you? What do you want?" The Cat: "I’m here to warn you. Whatever you do—don’t accept anyone’s confession." Shen Mo: "Why not?" The Cat: "Because the world will end."

He was the feral Alpha King buried beneath the mountain. She was the cursed girl they offered to him as sacrifice to end the famine plaguing their lands. Ruvan, the first Alpha. Imprisoned, driven to utter madness, and starved of power. Solenne, the packless she-wolf rumored to be cursed and bring misfortune to all who cross paths with her. With the power of cursed speech, she is able to kill and bend the world to her will with only one word. To avoid hurting others, she hasn't spoken a single syllable since she was a child. Feared and rejected by her own people, she is given to the mountain in a forbidden ritual-sacrifice... and her scent stirs the beast that slumbers beneath it. His mate. Ruvan will stop at nothing to claim what's his, even if that means storming the heavens and finding the cure to her curse just to hear her speak his name. ---- She saw stars behind her eyes and felt constellations carved into her skin with every lingering touch and each press of his mouth. He painted the night sky onto her body, not with a brush, but with his lips, hands, and his insatiable hunger—until her lungs were empty and her heart soared so high it must’ve kissed the moon. “Solenne,” Ruvan murmured, voice low and reverent, like a prayer. She shivered; the sound of her name on his lips felt like heaven. Ruvan pressed his palm to her stomach, anchoring her as he leaned in, mouth brushing the hollow of her throat. His hand rose, slow and shaking, tracing the shape of her jaw like it was a sight made only for him. His thumb brushed the corner of her mouth and his eyes burned as he studied her. “You feel like the stars,” he whispered, “Mesmerizing and bright... something that I want to capture and keep to myself." And then he kissed her; it was a deep, aching vow he couldn’t speak aloud. A promise made only in breath, heat, and need. When they parted, he gently pressed his forehead against hers. His voice dipped lower… uncertain, maybe even afraid: “Say my name?” -- R18, werewolves, fated love, weak to strong... I hope you enjoy my second entry for 2025 WSA. :) give it a shot~

Dead Girls Don’t Say No A Yuri Apocalypse Novel When the world ended, Raven Salvatore didn’t cry. She stole a truck, maxed out her father’s credit card, and built a fortress of stolen goods. Survival was never about hope — it was about hoarding, hustling, and hitting first. Then she met Alara. Beautiful. Dead. And unlike any zombie Raven had ever seen. Alara wasn’t just wandering aimlessly like the others she was aware. Hungry, yes... but for her. Something about Raven’s very existence stirred a sliver of life back into the girl's rotting heart. Armed with a mysterious system that gifts her a private Sanctuary dimension, Raven becomes a new breed of survivor. She doesn’t just dodge the undead. She cultivates food in barren wastelands, stockpiles weapons inside her pocket world, and most dangerously nurtures her own evolving zombie companion. As Raven feeds Alara crystallized nuclei from fallen zombies, Alara begins to grow stronger... smarter... closer. No one warned Raven that love would be the deadliest infection of all. With humanity’s last cities crumbling, the earth poisoned, and mutated horrors lurking in every shadow, Raven has one simple rule: "Don’t trust the living. Trust the girl who would kill for you instead." In a world where survival is bought in blood and sanity rots away like the flesh of the dead, Raven and Alara carve out a life together — violent, tender, and defiantly alive. Dead Girls Don’t Say No is a genre-bending, unapologetically queer tale of survival, devotion, and undead romance at the end of the world. For fans of brutal apocalypse sagas, dark love stories, and heroines who refuse to die quietly.

I was just another guy on Earth — broke, jobless, and bored. Then I woke up in a different world… …kneeling before the Empire’s most dangerous woman. Princess Asthia. Beautiful. Cunning. Untouchable.

A system popped into my head the moment I swore my oath: [Absolute Loyalty Pact Activated] - Any direct command from the Princess must be obeyed. - Disobedience results in pain, punishment… or death. - Obedience rewards EXP, skills, and system perks.

The man stared at the miniature version of himself and asked, “Where’s your mommy?” Xia Yuxun, who was watching this live show gulped, “You brat, you are digging your mom a hole!”

"Mandy, I know how you feel but this is our life. This is how we live and we've lived like this for a very long time. Everything we do, is to make sure we can live another day with our sanity intact." "This-- isn't living mom.

I just don't think it's meant for people like me."- Jordan Gallagher “Sometimes the people who hurt us the worst are the ones we need the most.”- Elyse Gates

Asher never liked following the rules. In his old world, he was just a regular guy, stuck with the same boring life and no real power. But when he got thrown into a new world, he thought things would finally be different. Instead, he became an extra. Just another background character with no special abilities, no status. It pissed him off. How could he, someone who always wanted to break free and live on his own terms, end up like this again, even in a new world? Then, the System appeared.

By completing tasks assigned to you based on the path you choose, you can earn mystical rewards, wealth, and power beyond your wildest imagination. Do you accept the System?] Asher stared at the glowing message, his frustration boiling over. Hero? That was a joke. Heroes followed rules, played by society’s ideals, and lived to help others. He’d had enough of that nonsense. “I don’t need to be a hero,” Asher muttered, his voice laced with contempt. “I’ve been held back enough. I’m done with that. I’ll do things my way.” Without a second thought, he clicked on the Villain option. He wasn’t about to waste time pretending to be someone he wasn’t. [Ding] [Villain path chosen. Rewards will be granted upon completion of tasks.] A cold, wicked grin spread across Asher’s face. This was it. No more being an extra. No more following anyone’s rules. Now, he had the chance to take control, to carve out his own future with power, wealth, and freedom. The world would bend to his will. “Who says I can’t be a villain?” Asher whispered, a dangerous gleam in his eyes. "Let them try to stop me." ***** No NTR , No Yuri
