"Hello there, as you heard from whatever those strange words are, I’m basically a mushroom, but in reverse, instead of leeching energy off dying things, I give energy to… the dying? To those that ask for it? No no, that’s not it… hmmm… oh that’s right! To those that need it! Well, that’s how it was supposed to go, but something unexpected came up, I would say they are going completely overboard as they tried to off me. All I know is that I helped someone in dire need of it and now, I’m being chased by these scary people, I can hide pretty good, but they are looking for me thoroughly, and they are somehow tracking me, all I can do is keep running, or would that be jumping? Oh, it doesn’t matter!” "I heard something over there!" ‽ ‽ ‽ "Oh shoot they heard me moving, I have to get going now, bye whoever you are, I wish you a good life!" Follow a unique little mushroom in a fantasy world where both nature and civilization are at the top, neither dominating nor succumbing to the other. Nature, monsters, animals, as strong as ever, and the humans, orcs, elves, demons, you name it, are just as proficient, each in their own way. Monsters hunting, killing, dominating the others... the sentient races gathering and growing for survival and betterment in their lives, and in the middle of all that, is our small, uncanny, mushroom friend… well, lets see what happens, shall we?

"Now, listen to the demon's thoughts: … It was a gamble. I gambled on their perception of their identity being "righteous" or "just". I gambled on them knowing the truth behind my past. I gambled on their likelihood to be captivated by my words… Which created the hesitance necessary to prevent their blades from immediately striking a hole through my throat. I gambled on their proclivity to the human tendency to act contrarian to an adversary's desires. I gambled on their stupidity. I was lucky. But from now on, I won’t need luck. I have time. And with this time, I swear-" Cover by DarthNeph on DeviantArt

When the monastery where she grew up is shut down by the government, she finds herself struggling to make ends meet on an average salary. Her twin sister, Isabel, pleads for Isobel's help in stepping in for her in her matrimonial household, just like when they were children. Isobel agrees to help, but only under certain conditions, and takes on the role of Mrs. Isabel Julius Cza. As she settles into the household, Isobel begins to understand the depth of her brother-in-law's love for her sister, and realizes that his affections are anything but ordinary. She finds herself caught in a web of emotions and desires that she never anticipated, and must navigate a delicate balance to protect herself and her sister's marriage. ****** "Isabel suck on my neck." He gently guides then sucks in a deep breath as he felt the cool shy lips of his wife. He itched for the stimulation. "Isabel say ahh..." He pulled in her retreating form, locking her head in a tight grip. His hands crawled up and grasped the swollen globe on her chest and caressed his wife's trembling breast. As if on cue she gasped, then he pierced his genitals deep inside her mouth. Isobel instinctively gagged as it touched the back of her throat. ---Skip---Skip- .... Finally, a satisfied smile appeared on Julius's lips when he heard the sound of gulping and swallowing of s*men. He looked down at his wife's beetroom form under him with her mouth stuffed with d*ck. She looked ready to pass out... "You look divine wifey..." Julius hugged Isobel head tightly,loving how his wife chokes on his manh**d. Massaging her hair as if to pet her. He pulls his hip back a bit to allow her breathe. She holds his thigh for support as she heaves in deep air. He calmly looks at her and whispered lowly as he soothingly wipes the corner of his wife's cheek that were glistening with tears, drool and cum. "Now it's your turn. Baby." ******

(PAUSED) One night, Faerie remembers that she wants to read a novel that was recommended by one of her students. Unfortunately, she forgets what the title was and decided to read another novel that she accidentally found on an old website. Because of how horrible the ending was, Faerie ended up leaving a review full of insults for the novel that has ended for years. It seems that this website has been dead and maybe she was the last visitor to this website. So she believes that her review won't be read by anyone. And just like that, Faerie left a review full of gag nonsense. "The worst ending in the world. If you, readers, agree with my opinions, gimme a million likes! Maybe there's a miracle for me to be transmigrated into this novel so I can change this shitty ending to becoming the best ending all of the time!" And now Faerie regrets her review that night. Faerie did transmigrate into the shitty novel by its writer who proclaimed to be a God. And her bad luck didn't end there. Faerie now possessed a hidden character's body whose destined to die at the hands of a tyrant. Now, what is Faerie supposed to do to change the shitty storyline into the best ending all of the time, and return to her life on Earth? --- Author's note: Related to chapters 01-13 which explains how the MC was able to enter the novel's world and why she was obliged to sign a contract by the Goddess with the reward: 'her life in her original world'.

I slapped her ass once more as she shrieked and blurted, "I want it in my ass, all please...fuck my ass." I replaced the ball gag and aimed my cock for her asshole, only to slip into her pussy. She groaned deeply but then began to squirm again as I dipped my fingers into her juices and began to lubricate her little pucker. She groaned when I added two fingers deeply. After some more pussy juice and fingers, I pushed the head of my cock against her little anal opening. I Write R18 Adult Stories support me for more cultural content

The world was 'ordinary' as a utopia had grown from human societies that united the entire planet. This utopia lasted thousands of years and only ended when magic was introduced to the world. On a day that started like any other all the human's turned into monsters from fairy tales. It only took an hou for the utopia to collapse as 2/3 of the planet's population died. After the hour ended without a single second delay half of the human's returned to their original forms but now they were able to use magic. A world wide monarchy quickly formed as no one could oppose the one who said they were king, a human with far more magical power than the rest. Arco was taking an afternoon nap that was interrupted by loud bangs and roars. She gets out of bed and looks out the window to see numerous monsters of all sizes wandering the streets. Her first thought was 'is there a parade going on?' She retains this thought for only a moment before seeing a giant reptile bite off the upper half of a humanoid shaped pig. The guts spilled out and she felt herself gag as she covered he mouth with her hand yet this hand was not the hand she remembered.

Current status: on hiatus, currently writing further chapters to publish. The world has barely recovered from the disaster of the volcanoes, even after a century. To an average citizen, Sans Nom Mountain City is a relatively peaceful place, even with the annual gang fights. But deep below the surface, trouble is stirring, and it may not be long before the entire country is thrown into war. Well, that's grim dramaticness I suppose. Kinda funny, but I'm writing a story full of the two things I hate most, war and politics. Anyway, two things. One, I hope you enjoy the story. Two, I'm sorry about how sporadic the updates will be. While pieces of the early "chapters" were already written, most isn't. The original writing never made it to the end of the first chapter, much less to the end of the book. I'm also really bad with names and titles, so please bear with me on this. I didn't like the pink cover the system automatically gives, so I decided to make a temporary cover from one of my drawings.

This is the story of one man, who reincarnated into a fantasy world with the ability to imagine anything into existence. A magic barrier? No problem! A magical sword? No problem!

The Mc will also be OP and won't hide his strength, but I will put a tiny restriction on his power, that is all.

I walk quietly towards the tied up and terrified girl as she struggles against the ropes. She mumbles words behind the gag while tears ruined her beautiful lightly tanned face, making mascara run wild. I grinned madly at her lowering my body to her level, "What was that ? Please say it louder" I said darkly to her as her eyes widen and struggled to get away. I don't think that is happening anytime soon because she's tied to a chair, gagged. I got angrier when she didn't reply to me when I told her to, resulting to grabbing her hair hard and bringing her face close to mine. "You'll regret not doing what i told you to do" I whisper dangerously low in her ear then let her hair go and hitting her cheek hard with my knuckles...”

The conflict between humans and mermen has spanned for hundreds of years, yet love can sprout in the most hostile of environments. Even between a cold, rigid human prince and a crafty, mischievous mermaid princess who felt an odd but overwhelming attraction to one another. Their forbidden love could be the world’s biggest blessing, or its darkest curse. A lie. A misunderstanding. The fractured pearl of a mermaid that fell into despair. A prince that was so struck by grief that he wanted the whole world to be engulfed in darkness. Two shattered hearts. Can this love be mended when given a second chance? - Under the luminous moonlight, laying on the dense grass of the garden he had once kept only for himself, Zhen Feng felt he could finally breathe. He had gotten the warmer half of his heart back after almost losing it and going mad. He personally reaped the heads of those who had held her captive, but the mastermind behind her abduction was still unknown. “No matter. I will marry her and keep her by my side. If someone dares to try taking her away, they will lose their legs first.” Interrupting his atrocious thoughts, the mermaid beside him asked somewhat nervously: “Will you still love me even if I’ve lied to you?” “I would love you even if the world itself came to an end.” Zhen Feng declared, frighteningly serious. His usually cold emotionless eyes were now burning with affection and uncontrollable desire. Pleased and assured by the prince's unwavering love profession, Lin Mei smiled softly, her deep seethed anxiety dissipating at last. She wondered if she should confess the truth. Finally able to reach a decision, she was about to reveal the secret she had been hiding from him for so long when she was suddenly but gently pushed onto the floor. He tenderly cupped her chin in his icy hand and lightly touched her lower lip with his thumb. His pitch-black scorching eyes slowly shifted from her silver-green orbs to her rosy lips. Incapable of enduring it a second longer, he viciously took her soft lips, demanding to taste her, craving to possess her entirely.

[Disclaimer: A lot of chapters were removed and revised, starting on chapter 5] TP was your everyday average neet. Aside from working once a week, all he did was play games, eat chips, read manga, and occasionally write comments complaining about how bad a series he continues to watch is. But, he does have ONE particular hobby he picked up a few years back: To give as much hatred as he can to one particular novel. He didn't plan to stop unless his anger faded, or the author stopped writing. But, surprisingly, the undeserving author kept on writing despite having no readers aside from the occasional.. or daily hate comment and reviews from TP. Even TP had to give him credit for his unyielding spirit to write such a terrible novel. One day, after TP satisfyingly left another bad review and went to sleep, what he noticed was something quite unordinary. Something Uncommon. Or rather... impossible. He woke up to a body that wasn't his, and a written letter: Dear Toilet Paper, it has come to my notice that for the past 2 years you have not once missed to leave a single comment on every new chapter I have made. As a writer, I have much to learn; thank you for your criticisms. However, as much as I'd like to continue the story and keep you entertained, I have to put it to a stop. But, since you obviously like my story so much, I've gotten a perfect opportunity to keep you entertained. Hope you like it.

[COMPLETE - Bronze $2,000 Winner WSA 2021] Elreth is a Princess in the world of Anima—where humans can shift into the form of their animal ancestors. As the Lion King's daughter, Elreth breaks a thousand-year tradition when she challenges her father for dominance—and wins. But as the first known dominant Alpha Female, she faces a lonely, and dangerous Rule. Aaryn, Elreth’s best friend, has always secretly loved her beauty, and her strength. But as a member of the wolf-tribe, and unable to shape-shift, he is not viewed as the right Mate for Anima's first Dominant Queen. When events force Aaryn to admit his feelings, for the first time, Elreth's eyes are opened to Aaryn not just as a friend, but as a male--and her True Mate. But Aaryn also has secrets. Secrets spanning decades, that open Elreth's eyes to the threats against her people, and threaten to tear down the royal family, and the Anima as a whole. Can love really conquer all? Can Elreth convince a prejudiced people to accept Aaryn as her mate before these secrets threaten not just her rule, but her life? [Mature Content: No sexual violence] ***** Then, as Aaryn stared at Elreth, his scent changed. Which only confused her more, until something flashed behind his eyes. Something she’d only ever seen in her father’s face when he was staring at her mother. Desperation. Joy. Hunger. But that was crazy. Why would—? And suddenly, like a cub tumbling down a grassy hill to land on its feet, everything fell into place. Everything. Her mouth dropped open. She blinked. And blinked again. And for the first time in a very long time, she looked at him. Not at her confidante. Not at her closest ally. Not at the friend who’d been present for every major milestone in her life. She looked at Aaryn. The male. The wolf. She stared at his silver-white hair, that scattered over his ice-blue eyes, fixed on her, and created a barrier between them. She looked at the strength in his jaw, shadowed because of the late hour. She let her gaze drift down the cords of his neck, and his broad shoulders and the wide, smooth expanse of his chest that rose and fell rapidly. And she let herself remember the ladders of muscle that painted his torso—hidden by the white shirt he wore. She swallowed. She’d seen every inch of him at some point. Well, almost. Her mouth went dry. (Cover Art used by paid copyright permission. Illustrated by Aenaluck--see more gorgeous art and support them on DeviantArt and www.patreon.com/aenaluck)
