How To Fall In Love With Eyes

Yeon-Jun is a dedicated barista at a quaint cafe operated by Sung-Hoon Cha, the son of the man who once saved Yeon-Jun's life. He grapples with selective mutism, a condition that emerged after the traumatic experience of witnessing his parents' tragic death. Although the details of his past have faded from his memory, his body retains the imprint of those painful events. It was during this darkest chapter of his life that Sung-Hoon's father discovered him alone and heartbroken, offering him shelter and a semblance of safety. Despite never having envisioned a future as a barista, Yeon-Jun made a solemn promise to Sung-Hoon's father on his deathbed—to forever stand by his side. This vow compelled Yeon-Jun to forsake his own aspirations and instead pursue a life marked by unrelenting work and perpetual anxiety. Conversely, Woo-San Kim is the affluent CEO of K&L Entertainment, a company steeped in legacy as he belongs to an illustrious lineage of chaebols, being an eighth-generation heir poised to inherit substantial assets from his grandfather. Like Yeon-Jun, Woo-San has also faced the grief of losing both parents to illness, which has led to a strained relationship with his controlling grandfather. The elder Kim holds steadfast to his authority, adamantly refusing to relinquish the company, opting instead to orchestrate a competition among Woo-San, his half-brother, and his cousin for the right to inherit the family fortune. Throughout his childhood, Woo-San has been accompanied by Hee-Jun Go, a devoted friend and secretary who was rescued by Woo-San's father. Hee-Jun, having been separated from his own family at a young age, appreciates the depth of loyalty and friendship. In a heartfelt gesture, Woo-San offers to help Hee-Jun locate his long-lost brother, during which he finds himself inexplicably drawn to Yeon-Jun at the café, captivated by the quiet strength and resilience hidden beneath Yeon-Jun's struggles. However, when Woo-San’s grandfather learns of his burgeoning feelings for Yeon-Jun, he delivers a menacing ultimatum: marry someone of his grandfather's choosing or face disinheritance. Feeling cornered with little left to lose, Woo-San contemplates capitulating to the marriage arrangement, all the while suspecting that his grandfather is orchestrating a more sinister plot that preys on Woo-San's unresolved trauma, compelling him to wrestle for his inheritance. As tensions rise within this power dynamic, Woo-San feels an undeniable connection to Yeon-Jun, yet finds that Yeon-Jun’s condition renders him unable to express his own feelings. Desperate to flee the confines of the forced marriage, Woo-San resolves to turn his grandfather's manipulative tactics against him. In this quest for autonomy, he uncovers unsettling truths that extend far beyond his own life, jeopardizing not only his future but also deeply affecting Hee-Jun, Sung-Hoon, and even his grandfather himself. Faced with this newfound knowledge—one he wishes he could unlearn—Woo-San must grapple with difficult decisions. Will he risk exposing his own vulnerabilities to protect Yeon-Jun? Will he succumb to his grandfather’s wishes to secure his inheritance, or will he forge a path driven by empathy and commitment to those who have become family to him? The weight of these revelations threatens to alter the course of their lives forever. Author's Note: I apologize if this gets a delayed update. My country decided to randomly go to war this Tuesday and I live near the border. So, yeah.

"Ashes of Crestfall: The Rise of Aaron San Agustin"

Aaron San Agustin was never meant to be noticed. Born in the rural city of Crestfall, where secrets weigh heavier than the soil, he grew up under the shadow of poverty, fractured loyalties, and a family bound by silence. Burdened by the emotional wreckage of a complicated upbringing, Aaron made a quiet decision: to walk away from his past and build a life of quiet endurance in Velmont City—a place that promised opportunity, but offered only relentless struggle. By day, he worked tirelessly to make ends meet, sending money back home to his aunt, Coleen, who kept what little remained of his family afloat. By night, he fought the quiet war of loneliness, rejection, and humiliation—particularly from Elena Layne Fonte’s affluent family, who saw him as nothing more than a poor farm boy clinging to their daughter’s light. But through it all, Elena believed in him. Where others saw nothing, she saw purpose. Her love became his only sanctuary. Then, fate intervened. In a moment of distracted frustration, Aaron mistakenly invested $10,000—nearly all he had—into an obscure digital currency on his outdated smartphone. Ridiculed for his recklessness, he braced for collapse. But the currency was BITX, and within years, its meteoric rise transformed him from invisible to invaluable. Not only did Aaron become one of its largest shareholders, but he was also selected—by means unknown—to receive the Black Diamond Card: a mysterious, elite pass granting him unlimited access to networks of influence, power, and wealth few could imagine. With quiet precision and the same humility that once made him forgettable, Aaron began to reshape his life—and the world around him. But power brings new shadows, and not everyone welcomes his rise. Old secrets from Crestfall stir, dangerous eyes begin to watch, and the quiet farm boy no one believed in becomes a force that neither the elite nor the corrupt can ignore. From forgotten to formidable, Aaron San Agustin is a story of quiet rebellion, impossible odds, and the uncanny twist of destiny that turns broken beginnings into legacies.

The First Vampire: A Journey Into The Supernatural

The story began when Lucifer grew bored. This led him to decide to create a superior race to his father's, for his own entertainment. This race would surpass humans in every aspect, but there were still limitations to what he could achieve. For instance, he couldn't deceive the sun, a natural force belonging to his father, God. He desired a race that could outwit and behave like humans in order to deceive his father's masterpiece, but he couldn't create it in the same way as his father. Therefore, he opted for a shortcut - creating a disease known as vampirism. The main character becomes the first vampire, obtaining the blessing from Lucifer himself. In the year 646 A.D. in a small village in The Frankish Kingdom, a young albino girl named Carmilla lived in fear for her life. In those dark ages, her unique appearance meant almost certain death. Confined to the basement of her house, she had never seen the world beyond its walls. Her parents kept her in chains, showing her no love or kindness, except for her sister Anna, who was her only source of comfort and care. However, tragedy struck when fate cruelly took Anna away. Alone and desperate, Carmilla prayed for salvation, and in her darkest moment, an unexpected blessing came from the Seraphim Lucifer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In my novel, Carmilla will embark on a journey through different time periods, facing great dangers along the way. She may encounter historical figures such as Vlad The Impaler, visit the Lancaster duchess, and possibly even travel to Brazil. The story will be filled with numerous historical events, some of which will be altered while others may not occur at all. The supernatural world will be rich with a variety of folklore from real life, some of which I may create myself. Elements such as werewolves, sorcery, faith bearers, pagan gods, and more will be included. I draw inspiration from real world legends and events, and will also introduce some original creations of my own. Many of the vampire characters in the story will be influenced by existing vampire literature, such as Castlevania, Vampire: The Masquerade, Count Dracula, and others.

RANTAI KEHENDAK: KEBANGKITAN NAM KING”

Di sebuah dunia yang dibina atas tulang kekaisaran dan kepercayaan kepada keturunan bangsawan, wujud sebuah desa terpencil di langit — peninggalan peradaban dewa kuno — tempat lahirnya seorang anak luar nikah dari Kaisar yang kejam dan seorang pembantu istana yang terbuang. Namanya: Nam King. Dibesarkan dalam hinaan dan kemiskinan, Nam King tidak memiliki apa-apa — kecuali tekad sekuat kehendak dewa. Ketika seluruh dunia mempercayai bahawa hanya keturunan darah murni yang layak menjadi pahlawan, King membuktikan bahawa kekuatan sejati lahir dari penderitaan dan keengganan untuk tunduk. Dengan tubuh muda yang penuh luka dan jiwanya yang tak pernah berhenti bertanya tentang makna kekuatan sejati, Nam King menyertai pengembaraan untuk menembus tembok Akademi Arkaidion — tempat yang melatih legenda dan juga alat sistem kaisar untuk mempertahankan kekuasaan. Di tengah penghinaan, ujian maut, dan tipu daya politik bangsawan, King perlahan membangkitkan kuasa yang terlupakan dunia — kuasa enam elemen purba: bumi, air, api, angin, cahaya, dan kegelapan, serta kekuatan utama yang hanya dimiliki oleh segelintir makhluk agung: KEHENDAK — kuasa yang mampu membengkokkan realiti, melawan takdir, dan menentang dewa sekalipun. Namun ancaman terbesar bukan hanya kekaisaran yang korup. Di balik semesta, bangsa Abyss, makhluk dari dimensi gelap yang menyerupai manusia dan haiwan, sedang mengintai. Mereka menunggu retakan jiwa, untuk menjelma melalui bayang-bayang dunia manusia. Untuk melindungi masa depan, Nam King mencipta sebuah rantai hitam legendaris, penampung kuasa lima roh dewa, yang akan diwariskan kepada generasi terpilih — bukan melalui darah, tetapi melalui pengorbanan, penderitaan, dan tekad yang tidak goyah. Maka bermulalah warisan 100 generasi, yang akan diuji oleh cinta, pengkhianatan, kekuasaan, dan kegelapan — baik dari luar maupun dari dalam diri mereka sendiri. Namun semua ini bermula dengan satu anak... Nam King. Seorang yang bukan siapa-siapa… Yang akan menjadi asal segala legenda.

prince sans nom

Le Silence sous la Soie Dans un empire où les sourires sont masques, où les poisons sont plus puissants que les épées, et où même les dieux se taisent, un jeune esclave nommé Ken est vendu pour sa beauté inhumaine — des yeux aussi noirs qu’un abîme sans fond, une peau pâle comme la lune, et des cheveux qui ne reflètent aucune lumière. Acheté par Seiran, un mystérieux noble éblouissant, Ken devient son serviteur, son ombre, son reflet imparfait. Mais derrière son obéissance se cache un but : comprendre, surpasser, s’élever. Ken observe, imite, dévore le monde avec une seule intention : le dominer. Sa route croise Yuehime, apothicaire géniale, brisée mais indomptable, obsédée par les poisons plus que par les hommes. Puis Sahiya, consort impériale aussi distante qu’envoutante, dont le regard trouble les plus puissants. Et Ishime, dame de glace et de logique, froide comme la vérité. Mais tout change le jour où l’Empereur arrive incognito. Derrière la splendeur du trône se cache un mensonge : Jinshi, que tous croient frère de l’Empereur… est en réalité son fils. La vérité explose, les liens se brisent, les cœurs se dévoilent, et Ken voit enfin s’ouvrir une brèche dans le destin. À travers les jeux politiques, les trahisons silencieuses, les amours impossibles et les poisons lentement distillés, chacun cherche sa place, ou sa liberté. Mais dans un monde où les sentiments sont faiblesse, où l’intelligence est une arme et la beauté un piège… … qui survivra sans perdre son âme ?

Worth Fighting For

She woke up in an unfamiliar room, her body aching, her memories fragmented. The moment she looked in the mirror, she realized—this wasn’t her face. Once, this body belonged to the precious daughter of the Shen family—an heiress admired by all, engaged to Mo Ziqian, heir of the illustrious Mo family. But the moment her family crumbled into bankruptcy—something he had secretly planned—the engagement was coldly broken off. "You're no longer worthy to stand by my side," Mo Ziqian had said, turning his back without a trace of guilt. As if that betrayal wasn’t enough, the original girl was framed, humiliated, and violated—her pain turned into a scandalous video that spread like wildfire. With no dignity left, she chose to end it all. Just when she stood on the edge of death, Mo Zixuan, the younger brother of her ex-fiancé, reached out his hand. "Trust me. I’ll marry you, I’ll protect you." Desperate and drowning, she clung to that lifeline—only to discover she’d stepped into an even darker abyss. His love was a lie, too. "Even you…" she whispered, tears merging with the sea that swallowed her. But fate had other plans. A new soul awoke in the body—vengeful, cold, and calculating. She wasn’t here to mourn. She was here to make them all pay. "You ruined her. Now, I'll ruin you." But something is wrong. As she begins to seek revenge, memories surface that don’t belong to the original girl. Memories of places she’s never been. Names she’s never heard. Emotions that feel too real to ignore. “Whose life am I really living…? Who am I?” Is she truly just an outsider inhabiting a stranger’s body—or is something far deeper at play? What happens when vengeance awakens something older, darker, and more dangerous? She doesn’t just want justice anymore. She wants answers. And she will burn the world to get them.
