Her world was destroyed the day her father was assassinated and her family left for dead. Eighteen and jaded now, Kyoline makes friends with bartending shifts, gun-running, and caring for the siblings nobody else will. Love is not on the agenda—survival is. But there's Tenz Jersey, her mafia beau, all tattoos and broken vows, who kisses like sin and lies like the bible. He gives her protection, passion, and anarchy in equal measure. She tells herself he's enough, that he's the only one capable of making the threat feel like home. Until Isaac. Cold. Deadly. Unapologetically deadly.

Don’t have looks? Don’t have money? A complete nobody? Fear not! Because you’re definitely doing better than Dante! After reincarnating in a pathetic mine infested with goblins and a spider the size of a wagon, Dante discovers he has one thing no one else in this magical world does: shamelessness — and a lot of creativity! Armed with intelligence, strategy, an RPG system, and a kind of charisma anyone can fake, Dante is determined to level up, earn respect, and rule the world! Win at life and overcome every twist — even if the whole world thinks you’re the ugliest thing alive! ==================== This story is about a badass guy who ended up dying tragically and being reincarnated in a magical world to become a better person. This doesn't necessarily mean he'll become a better person. In fact, you'll see him use absurd strategies to gain fame and notoriety. The character has completely bizarre and even comical attitudes, but that doesn't mean he's stupid. Quite the opposite. In this story, you will find a harem — as the title suggests — lots of adventure and as the story develops, you'll see a kingdom system. The focus will be on the context within the world and on the people (worldbuilding). It's a story focused on a guy who wants to do well in life and HOW he's going to achieve that (even though he's ugly). The unique part of the story is that, technically, you can apply some of the lessons from the story yourself. Of course, keeping in mind that it's a fantasy. But nothing the protagonist did is impossible to apply (I'm living proof of that). That said, happy reading. ==================== [2-3 chapters per day]

"If your heart aches like someone often says Then remember that the fall of a leaf is a leaf that is renewed And keep those painful notes When good things will end and fade away Even when love was once abundant This is precious to you like silver and gold If one day you meet someone who brings joy Then remember that the pain you hold onto will help you find peace Because we are not used to pain through many times We should not suffer when the evening fades." - " Nhắn nhủ" by Ronboogz -

I know very well that my words will never justify all my actions, but it really was worth it. This is the only thing I can say in my defense and if there is a hell we will see each other there. Everything else is in the story and if you are not afraid of hell. You are free to join... ◈—◈—◈—◈—◈—◈—◈—◈—◈ This novel is the product of my imagination with a surreal plot and must be treated as such, where each and every one of the characters is 18 years or older and any act is previously consented to, so the characters told me. Even if they say otherwise, it is part of their performance.

The strongest hero in the world… has no idea what the hell he’s doing. For five years, he wrote a fantasy webnovel about the most overpowered protagonist imaginable. A flawless, dramatic, world-shaking hero with a name so long it might actually summon something if said aloud. But after an untimely death, the author wakes up in the body of his own creation, Lucien Aetherion Valeforge, Archmage of the Ninth Flame, Scion of the World Tree, Savior of Realms, etc., etc. Now trapped in the very world he built, one riddled with plot holes, half-baked side quests, and a barely functional magic system, he has no choice but to pretend he knows what he’s doing. Unfortunately, the world isn’t playing along. The villain seems dangerously self-aware. The party he wrote as jokes now has real personalities, real problems, and real trauma. His most powerful spells come with side effects he never bothered to define. And worst of all? Everyone expects him to act like the perfect hero he never actually was. Armed with absurd power and absolutely zero preparedness, he’ll have to navigate his own unstable story, dodge his own writing mistakes, and try not to accidentally destroy the world he once created just for fun.

Survival Odyssey: Lord of the Isles Adrift on a splintered plank, GuNings eyes snapped open to an endless expanse of churning sea. The voice of Tianmu, the continent's divine will, resonated in his mind: he'd been thrust into the realm of the Lords, where survival hinged on navigating treacherous waters to claim an island and plant his domain. Tempests lashed, heatwaves parched, but fate dealt him a stroke of luck—a coveted Epic Talent. While others floundered blindly, GuNing charted his course with preternatural certainty. As they gnawed on meager rations, his table brimmed with feasts. When rivals finally glimpsed land, he'd already delved into the underworld's depths, forging alliances and vanquishing foes. From the barest beginnings, he summoned armies, rallied enchanting heroines from diverse races, and erected a sprawling empire brick by bloodstained brick.

In late 2024, I came across Bitdollar.com and Cryptodev.com, two websites promising extraordinary returns of 220% in just 10 days. As a novice investor, the prospect of such rapid, high returns was incredibly enticing. The idea of quick wealth seemed like a golden opportunity, leading me to invest $80,000 in each platform, totaling $160,000, with high hopes for the “guaranteed” profits. For the first few days, everything seemed promising. I logged into my accounts daily, watching the numbers grow, and my excitement built. I began imagining the possibilities—exotic vacations, new investments, a better lifestyle. But as the 10-day period neared its end, my excitement turned to frustration. When I tried to access my funds, I was locked out. My accounts seemed to have vanished. Emails to customer service went unanswered, and withdrawal attempts were met with vague error messages. What I thought was a smart investment started feeling like a nightmare. I was stranded, unable to access a single cent, and panic set in as I realized I might have been scammed. Desperate, I confided in an Instagram friend who had faced a similar situation. They recommended DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY, a service that had helped them recover funds from a shady platform. With little to lose, I contacted the team. They responded quickly, explaining how common these scams are and outlining their recovery process. After I made a financial commitment, they diligently tracked down my funds. Within weeks, DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY successfully recovered my entire $160,000. This experience was a harsh lesson in the risks of high-return investments. Now, I approach opportunities with caution, researching thoroughly before investing. I’m grateful to DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY for restoring my financial stability and teaching me the importance of due diligence. WhatsApp: +1 (443) 859 - 2886 Zangi 10-4490-6657
