Betrayed. Destroyed. Forgotten. Adrian Cross had everything—wealth, power, and a company he built from the ground up. But when his closest allies turned against him, he lost it all in a single night. Left for dead, he vanished, while his greatest enemy reaped the rewards of his downfall. But some men don’t stay buried. When Adrian returns, he’s not the same man who once played by the rules. He’s colder, sharper, and dangerously calculated. A hidden force seems to be working against him, twisting fate itself in his enemy’s favor. But Adrian doesn’t believe in curses—only in vengeance. Now, with secrets darker than betrayal and a city that no longer knows his name, Adrian will reclaim everything that was stolen from him. And this time, he won’t just take back his empire—he’ll burn those who wronged him to the ground. Because the dead don’t seek justice. They demand retribution.

I found a girl of unknown origin outside; she claims to be a time traveler from a post-apocalyptic era. Great calamity is imminent, with abominations spreading across the land, human civilization annihilated, and even the world itself shattering, all beyond redemption. As for myself, I am considering how to confine this beautiful girl, who has temporarily lost her powers, within my home.

Since the Great Fracture and the partial destruction of the Moon, Earth has become nothing more than a wasteland, devoured by corruption. An unknown gigantic sword, emerging from the infinitely distant reaches of the universe, pierced the Unnameable, impaling it upon the star of dreams. Now, humanity lives in a waking nightmare, struggling to survive in a world where Umbra and Lumen wage an endless battle. Cities are built around sacred sites, where Lumen, the only source of purification, is wielded to repel the creeping darkness. But Umbra, with its abominations born of the shadows, relentlessly threatens what remains of humanity. Gaël is stained by this darkness. Umbra flows within him, eating away at his body and mind, and each time he draws upon this forbidden power, he edges closer to madness. He knows his fate is sealed, that his chances of surviving what he is becoming are slim. But rather than cower in fear, he chooses another path. He wants to follow in the footsteps of the Brothers of the Sword. Where the chosen of Lumen purify, the Brothers cut and annihilate. Where the cities hide behind the light, they plunge into the darkness. Feared, revered, and shrouded in legend, these warriors are, for most, nothing more than children’s tales. Gaël knows his life will be short. So before he vanishes, he wants to uncover the truth behind these fables, and if possible, live a brief, glorious saga, cutting down a few abominations along the way.

Auren was the star of his generation. Graduated the combat school at the age of 12, mental fortitude was beyond his peers, and he was considered the talent of the Western State of Lysendral. It was for this reason that his awakening was greatly anticipated. Everyone was sure the star would receive a Divine Blessing from the Archon. And like others before him, be set on a definite journey to becoming the strongest Blessed in the history of the world. However, expectations were shattered when Auren awakened a Divine… Curse. “Such a phenomenon has never been heard of!” “How can a human awaken a curse! This is an abomination! Kill him! Sacrifice him to the archons!” In such a slight moment of appointment, Auren's entire life came crashing down. And he became a national criminal. Locked up and sentenced to death for having receiving a curse instead of a blessing. A 16 year old boy was ruthlessly killed by a guillotine and offered as a sacrifice to prevent doom… and the people relished in it. However, this was not the end for Auren. [Congratulations, you have died by execution], [Conditions have been met] [You have challenged your first fester.] [A requiem beckons onto you..] [...Your resurrection awaits.] Having broken the shackles of death, Auren rises again to seek vengeance and destroy not just the nation that had killed him but tear down the very existence of the archons themselves. But is everything really as it seems?

Sol Calientos is a 17-year-old boy living in Luminata City, known as the brightest city in the world. His childhood best friend, also 17 years old, is a girl named Luna Orouku. The two friends were interested in exploration from a very young age and dreamed of exploring the entire world beyond Luminata City. With this dream, the two invested in free-running as a means to traverse through the city. Sol, himself, is a bit of a comic book and video game nerd, always having the dream to become a superhero. Luna always played the damsel role to appease her friend’s dream. As far as they know, it’s all just a fantasy, but everything is about to change. This novel is what I'd like to call a Hero Action Drama. It focuses on heavily on its characters and how this futuristic, but grounded world affects them. TW: Heavy, non-graphic violence, T-rated language. Some intense traumatic topics will be referenced such as torture, abuse, and human trafficking. A warning will be placed before such a scene takes place.

Wasters. The word spreads like wildfire across the frontier—whispered in saloons, cursed in cathedrals. Born of rogue science and stitched metal, they’re outlaws in the eyes of the Church and monsters in the eyes of the world. Levi Wilson didn’t choose this life. Once a streetwise mercenary, he was captured, experimented on, and turned into something he doesn’t understand. Augmented with prototype Vaporguard tech and left with scars he can’t outrun, Levi escapes into a land already teetering on the edge—where the Church tightens its grip, bounty hunters chase Wasters for coin, and the Old World’s empire watches the New with hungry eyes. Now hunted and alone, Levi must learn to survive—not just the bounty hunters and Inquisition on his trail, but the growing power inside him. What begins as a fight to stay alive will drag him into something far greater: a war for the soul of the frontier, and maybe the world beyond it. **WHAT TO EXPECT** • Guns are outlawed—blades, fists, and augments rule the frontier • Alternate timeline where the Church controls global tech and power • Steam-powered war machines and brutal Inquisitors • Grounded, gritty combat with realistic consequences • Deep worldbuilding with political, cultural, and religious conflict • Third-person limited POV with strong character focus • No chosen ones, no prophecy—just survival • Slow-burn mystery and high-stakes tension • No harem • Earthsong magic with real costs, not flashy spells • Bounty hunters, Templar Knights, orphans, war criminals, and broken survivors

In a world dominated by monsters, an invisible hierarchy exists among the creatures and the hunters who pursue them: Monster Hunters – They leap from hundreds of meters in the air without protection, withstand energy blasts to the face, walk on molten lava, slay ancient dragons, and eliminate every abomination in existence. Monsters, Hunters – Masters of the hunting bow, wielders of the great axe, throwers of explosive barrels, and tacticians of aerial assaults. They are the free hunters who roam the land, taking down monsters at will. Monsters, Hunt, Humans – Even if you’ve battled the Bone Hammer or mastered the Longsword’s soaring dragon slash, what does it matter? In the end, it’s just one hunter, one Palico, and a single flare. Monster Hunt, Humans – “You fool, run! You’re the prey now!” Monsters Torment Humans – “...Enough of this, Monster Hunter World. Uninstall!” At the pinnacle of the food chain, “The Azure Meteor” spreads its wings. Six torrents of ion flames cast a long, terrifying shadow over the New World, circling the highest reaches of the Elder’s Recess – the Apex Variant of the Valstrax: the Crystalline Dragon!

In a twist of fate, she encounters him again, and a relationship blossoms between them. But in a world that wants nothing to do with witches, will their relationship survive the stigma? @ Art by Thorkell_40k

Nasty rumors are swirling around Noah. He got used to having others judge him by this unfair gossip, so he has put an end to him and his personal life. Ethan is hunted by his past, so he’s diligently trying to avoid any kind of close relationship. It seems like they have no common ground and certainly have no reason to be interested in each other. But ‘Devil’s Eye’ clears things up.

Unfortunately for her, that night won’t just go away and she finds that her groom actually wants her and wait for it… he is her ex’s father. * “You went into a hotel and spent the night with a strange man, do you deny it?” “why should she deny it when she spent the night with her husband?” a steely voice said while his eyes looked down at Lyse with all the affection in the world then he turned to Brooke, his eyes losing their softness. “Do you have a problem with what my wife and I do?”

In a world stubbornly grounded in mundane reality, where superpowers are confined to fiction, everything changes on an otherwise ordinary day. A silent, hum vibrates through the very fabric of existence, perceived first only by ten seemingly random individuals scattered across the globe. This "Awakening" irrevocably alters their lives, imbuing them with strange abilities they neither understand nor asked for.

In the fractured world of Eryndral, where 12 continents—nine grounded, three soaring—teeter on the edge of all-out war, power hums through magic, crude machinery, and the rare pulse of aura. Vyrkanth, a land of iron spires and coal-choked skies on the continent of Draveth, stands at the heart of the storm, its crimson wyrm banner raised against looming threats: orc warbands from Grundthar, elven skyships from Sylvara, and the restless dragons of Ignarath. Amid the clatter of steam carts and the flicker of arcane light, a peasant named Kael Draven emerges from the muck of Lowcrook, his piercing blue eyes—a rarity in a realm of brown and gray—marking him as an outcast, a target of scorn and suspicion.

In a universe where humanity is surrounded on all sides by xenos, rift creatures, abominations, and even other humans do they truly stand a chance? is there truly a hope that wont be snuffed out by an eldritch abomination?

In the corridors of Bellmare High, chaos is a way of life. Beneath the polished facade of academics and clubs lies an undercurrent of power struggles, secret alliances, and bitter rivalries. This is where Miguel Reyes, a sharp-witted, street-smart teenager, steps into the spotlight-a boy with a troubled past and fists that speak louder than words. Known for his devil-may-care attitude and unmatched fighting prowess, Miguel thought he had seen it all. That is, until she walked into his life. Meet Alessandra "Andi" Moretti-a girl with a face too angelic to be true and a lineage that strikes fear into the hearts of the bravest. The only daughter of a feared mafia boss, Andi arrives at Bellmare High with a mission of her own, and she's determined to keep everyone at arm's length. But destiny has other plans, and Miguel-Bellmare's most infamous troublemaker-becomes the one person who refuses to play by her rules. As tensions rise, Miguel and Andi find themselves caught in a whirlwind of fights both on and off the school grounds. From rival gangs waging turf wars to secretive groups vying for dominance within the school's underground fight club, every battle brings them closer together-and closer to unraveling dangerous secrets that threaten to upend their lives. But this isn't your typical romance. For every stolen glance, there's an enemy lurking in the shadows; for every laugh, there's a bruised knuckle. Miguel and Andi must navigate a labyrinth of trust, betrayal, and unspoken truths, all while grappling with a connection that feels as explosive as it is forbidden. Bellmare High is not for the faint of heart. It's a battleground where love clashes with survival, and loyalty is a weapon. *"Battle Grounds of the Heart"* is a high-octane rollercoaster of emotions-a story where humor, heartbreak, and action collide, leaving you breathless and craving more with every chapter.

Since the opening of the Dungeon Rifts-- also called D.Rifts or Drift Dimensions, the world has changed. It's become more militaristic and violent-- unpredictable, even. Monsters raze cities and bring diseases that birth new races. Magic exists in a constant state of hyperflux, birthing new powers and changing the functions of old ones. But none of that mattered for Rex. He wasn't a Drift Soldier-- as much as he wanted to be. He didn't have powers-- even if he wished he did, so when he graduated primary school, he expected to get his Drift Armament and find a bit of consistency for once in his life. But you know what they say about expectations...... DING! [Congratulations! You have awakened the Beast-Totem and unlocked your Werepanther System.] [5 Totems Remaining....] ********* Extra tags: kingdom building, military, martial arts, overpowered, scifi-fantasy, post-apocalyptic, factions,

In a world that once mirrored Earth, everything changes overnight. A suffocating darkness devours half the land, birthing monstrous abominations and reducing civilization to ruin. As cities crumble and humanity teeters on the brink, a disembodied voice—the Guide System—echoes in the minds of survivors, urging them toward towering, otherworldly structures known as Divine Towers. Within them lies sanctuary… and a path to unimaginable power. Kael Moran, a 22-year-old media mogul once feared for his ruthless ambition, now faces a far deadlier game. Abandoned by a collapsing government and caught between horrors both human and inhuman, he must protect his family and carve a path through the chaos—before the darkness swallows what little remains.

Born beneath a blood-red moon, a child enters the world in silence—his breath steady, his gaze unblinking. The whispers begin that very night. The Abyss watches. It waits. Seraphina, a mother fleeing persecution, knows her son is different. He does not cry. He does not shiver in the cold. And when the darkness calls, he listens. Hunted by the Holy Inquisition, who deem him an abomination, and pursued by unseen entities lurking beyond mortal comprehension, Seraphina’s only hope lies with the exiled ones—outcasts who once dabbled in forbidden powers. But as she journeys into the unknown, she realizes that her son’s abilities are far beyond anything the world has ever seen. The Abyss does not create. It consumes. And her son… is hungry. As kingdoms fall and empires tremble, a prophecy whispers through the winds of fate: "The child born of darkness shall either bring salvation… or usher in the end of all things." Will Seraphina fight to change destiny? Or will she stand by as her son becomes it?

In a dark alley, obscured from the prying eyes of people, the muffled grunts of a shadowy figure beaten to a pulp were barely visible. Four hooded figures were standing around the bloody figure on the ground as he looked up in hate. Kraign struggled to his feet, his face mangled beyond recognition. "All of you idiots shall pay. THE WORLD WILL BURN!! "Boss, I think he's gone mad, we should leave", one of the hooded figures said on a low voice. "Was thinking the same thing", the shortest hooded figure replied, retreating with his crew, leaving the boy in the ground, barely breathing. As death drew near, things all went wrong.
