Junjou Sentiment

The Heart’s Trade-Off

Amma is a dedicated artist living on the lovely island of Malta, and she has always wished for a love as bright as her paintings. However, her life takes an unexpected turn when her conventional family arranges for her to marry Jones, a wealthy but emotionally aloof businessman. In an effort to meet her family's expectations, Amma reluctantly accepts the engagement, torn between her sense of duty and her true desires. Everything changes when Alex, her childhood friend and secret lover, returns to Malta, causing Amma's carefully planned life to unravel. In direct contrast to Jones' cold and dominating nature, Amma is drawn to Alex's compassion and understanding, which rekindles old sentiments. She is caught in a maelstrom of emotions, compromises, and difficult decisions as she navigates the conflict between the life her family had planned for her and the love she has always desired. Amma's heart is divided between two men: one who represents tradition and stability, and the other who reaffirms her identity and ignites her passions. Following a tragic encounter that forces her to confront her true feelings, Amma faces a heart-wrenching decision: should she follow her heart and risk everything for the chance at true love, or should she honor her commitment to Jones and the life her family has planned for her? "The Heart's Trade-Off" is a poignant tale of love, sacrifice, and self-discovery set against the breathtaking backdrop of Malta's medieval beauty and sun-soaked landscapes. It explores the timeless dilemma of whether to fulfill our obligations or to follow our hearts, as well as the costs associated with each choice.

genesys - la tour infinie

King, un jeune homme hanté par la solitude et le deuil, mène une existence marquée par l’ombre de son passé. Son père disparu trop tôt et la mort de sa meilleure amie, Myna, l’ont plongé dans un état de détachement du monde. Malgré sa popularité apparente, il vit en spectateur, traversant les jours avec un sentiment de vide et des visions inexplicables qui perturbent son quotidien. Mais tout bascule lorsque, au détour d’une nuit, une agression brutale le pousse à la violence. Dans un moment de rage incontrôlée, sa montre, dernier vestige de son père, est brisée sous ses yeux. Ce choc déclenche un phénomène surnaturel : un portail s’ouvre et l’arrache à son monde. Lorsqu’il reprend conscience, il se retrouve dans un lieu inconnu, un espace mystique où le temps et l’espace semblent défiés par des lois inconnues. Il est désormais dans la Tour Infinie, un monument titanesque reliant d’innombrables mondes. Pourquoi a-t-elle été créée ? Qui tire les ficelles ? Quel est le véritable objectif de l’ascension . Son objectif ? Gravir les étages de la Tour et survivre aux épreuves qui lui seront imposées. Guidé par Myna, une entité qu’il crée inconsciemment et qui semble liée à ses souvenirs, King découvre qu’il possède un pouvoir unique : la capacité d’imaginer et de matérialiser des armes et objets à l’aide du mot « Arise ». Il ignore encore l’ampleur de ce don et ce qu’il implique réellement dans la Tour. Dans ce monde inconnu, il rencontre Maddy, une combattante au tempérament explosif et à l’humour ravageur, et Clovis, un mystérieux nécromancien capable de manipuler les ombres des morts. Ensemble, ils doivent apprendre à survivre dans un environnement où les monstres, les pièges et les autres participants ne leur laisseront aucun répit. Mais la Tour n’est pas qu’un simple jeu mortel. Derrière ses murs se cachent des secrets oubliés, des dieux aux intentions troubles et des rivalités millénaires entre puissances cosmiques. Au sommet de cette structure se joue un enjeu bien plus grand que la simple ascension d’un mortel. Et King, sans le savoir, pourrait bien être la clé qui changera l’ordre établi.

Mes deux Alphas et moi

Aelia avait été désignée pour être la compagne de Jason, l'alpha dominant, une union imposée par les anciens de leur meute. Depuis ce jour, elle s'était vue condamnée à une relation qui oscillait entre indifférence et mépris. Jason la considérait comme faible, une ombre dans son monde impitoyable où seul le pouvoir comptait. Ce qu'il ignorait, c'était que la vraie puissance d'Aelia était encore tapie, attendant le moment opportun pour se révéler. Pourtant, malgré le mépris qu'il affichait ostensiblement, Jason était obsédé par elle. Chaque mouvement, chaque parole d'Aelia semblait déclencher en lui une possessivité féroce. Une obsession qu'il refusait d'admettre, la confondant souvent avec son besoin de contrôle. Mais plus Aelia s'efforçait de rester invisible, plus la rage de Jason grandissait, alimentée par des sentiments qu'il ne parvenait à définir. Les choses prirent un tournant irréversible le jour où Bastien, un autre alpha, fit son entrée lors d'un événement officiel. Puissant et charismatique, il était tout ce que Jason n'était pas : bienveillant, respecté pour sa sagesse autant que pour sa force brute. Lorsque les yeux de Bastien se posèrent sur Aelia, une étincelle s'alluma. Pour la première fois, quelqu'un la voyait autrement que comme un simple pion. Le sourire qu'il lui offrit n'échappa pas à Jason, qui sentit une colère glaciale monter en lui. Ce n'était pas seulement de la jalousie - c'était une guerre qui venait de commencer. Une lutte de pouvoir, où les désirs se mêlaient à la domination, et où Aelia, malgré elle, devenait le centre d'une séduction enflammée entre deux alphas prêts à tout pour la posséder.

Crimson Moonlight

The biting Seoul wind whipped around Kim Junmyeon as he hurried between his three jobs. At 6 AM, he was a barista, the smell of burnt coffee a familiar alarm clock. By noon, he was a delivery boy, his bicycle a lifeline weaving through the city's chaotic streets. Evenings found him washing dishes in a bustling bar, the clinking glasses a soundtrack to his exhaustion. Each task was a desperate attempt to pay off his father's crippling debts and his mother's mounting hospital bills. His mother's illness was a constant weight, a shadow clinging to his every moment. He'd promised her he'd get her the best treatment, a promise that felt increasingly impossible to keep. The bar, "The Crimson Moon," was his newest source of income, a last-ditch effort to stave off financial ruin. It was there, amidst the smoky haze and clinking glasses, that he first saw him. He was a force of nature, radiating an aura of power and danger. His name, he later learned, was Park Chanyeol. Chanyeol was everything Junmyeon wasn't: wealthy, powerful, and undeniably captivating. Their first encounter was brief, a fleeting glance across a crowded room, yet it left Junmyeon breathless. He didn't know then that Chanyeol was a Mafia boss, a fact that would soon become brutally clear. Chanyeol's interest in Junmyeon was immediate, bordering on obsession. He pursued him relentlessly, his offers of wealth and protection veiled threats. Junmyeon, however, remained steadfast in his refusal. He was fiercely independent, his pride a shield against Chanyeol's overwhelming presence. He wouldn't be bought, not even by a man as alluring and dangerous as Chanyeol. Then came the crisis. His mother's condition worsened, the hospital bills escalating into an insurmountable mountain. Desperation clawed at him, pushing him to the brink. He remembered Chanyeol's business card, a stark reminder of the impossible choice before him. With trembling hands, Junmyeon dialed the number. He met Chanyeol at his opulent home, a stark contrast to Junmyeon's cramped apartment. The air crackled with tension, the silence punctuated only by the rhythmic tick of a grandfather clock. Chanyeol's offer was blunt, devoid of sentimentality: a deal in exchange for Junmyeon's financial woes. Sex, without emotional attachment. A purely transactional arrangement. It was a degrading proposition, yet Junmyeon found himself accepting. His mother's life hung in the balance, and he would do anything to save her. The deal was struck, a pact sealed in the shadows of Chanyeol's lavish mansion. Their first encounter was raw, devoid of tenderness. Yet, amidst the stark reality of their arrangement, a flicker of something else ignited. A spark of connection, a silent acknowledgment of their shared vulnerability. This is where their story begins. Will their arrangement blossom into something more profound, defying the boundaries they've set? Or will their paths ultimately diverge, leaving them strangers once more? The answer lies in the chapters yet to come. This is just a beginning. You can develop their relationship, explore their individual struggles, and build the suspense around their forbidden love. Remember to focus on character development, exploring their inner conflicts and motivations. The contrast between Junmyeon's humble background and Chanyeol's powerful world offers rich potential for dramatic tension and emotional depth.

Eye of the Needle: Into the Reikai

Faith, fear, and fury. The strongest, most inalienable things that make us human. While the people of the world learn and grow, they shed feeling and emotion as time passes. Much like how matter cannot truly be destroyed, the energies of these sentiments never dissipates. Instead, it feeds beings born of all types of things, from ancient cultural followings to widespread societal discourse. In turn, these beings give back to the world--for better or worse. After the traumatic incident of his father's death, young DeMain is thrust into a world of turmoil and a hidden people right under the world's nose. As he harnesses a rare and unique ability gifted to him in exchange for his suffering, his view of the world unravels as he converges with others given the gift of Witchblood, an ability to see and interact with spirits. This book will take on its narrative based on the first-person views of three separate protagonists. I will remind those reading that 'protagonist' does not equate to 'hero' in all cases. A forewarning: This story includes many heavy themes and I felt the need to write them with the reality of how they happen. As such, be cautious. This book contains mentions of sexual assault, murder, violence, substance abuse, and overall conflict. There are also quite a varied amount of scenes with some 'gross' aspects to them. Though I imagine this would only affect those with vivid imaginations, you deserve to be warned regardless. Updates will done be once weekly if not more. (Things are subject to edits and changes!)

The Legend of Caelestella

LGBTQ NOVEL - BL In the realm of Alatheia, a timeless saga unfolded. Under the benevolent rule of the empress of the Drocian Empire, each newborn was bestowed with a divine blessing—a fragment of elemental power gifted by the gods themselves. Yet, this tranquillity was born from the golden ashes of a divine sacrifice long past. Millennia ago, Caelestella, the God of Salvation, relinquished his immortal essence to protect mortals from encroaching darkness. His sacrifice, however noble, left a lingering imbalance in the celestial realms, stirring discord among the divine. As the weaker deities turned to mortals for aid, a rift formed among the pantheon. Some sought solace in seclusion, coveting their waning powers and plotting in the shadows. In the heart of Alatheia, where mortal and divine intertwined, the empress held a delicate peace amidst whispers of divine discord and mortal destiny. The narrative centres on Astar, a 17-year-old protagonist emerging from years of seclusion. His encounter with Haruki, a potent young mage, catalyzes his reentry into the wider world. United with Haruki and fellow magic wielders, Astar is enlisted by the empress for a taxing quest—to locate the remnants of a lost Deity. Yet, their pursuit is challenged by a faction of dark mages harbouring malevolent intentions for the same Deity. Amidst this perilous journey, Astar grapples with self-discovery, recognizing latent abilities and his potential role as a key between mortal and divine realms. Moreover, he contends with internal conflicts, questioning his value within the group and confronting burgeoning romantic sentiments for Haruki that stir within him.

Villain: I Shall NTR All The Sons Of Destiny's

Read My Second Work: http://wbnv.in/a/e6ieLLY Name: The Lustful Young Master Has A System!. You can either search for it or look in my profile, you'll find it the both way! ### I was a normal kid... a kid who wanted nothing other than a happy family. Was that too much to ask for? So, why did everything turn out this way? Was asking for a normal, caring family too much that everything became worse? Why did it come to this? Why was my innocent mother murdered? Why did they do it? ... These were the thoughts running through the mind of the 4-year-old boy as he watched an unknown man—someone he had never seen in his entire life—scar him, kill his mother, and slaughter his entire family. At that moment, something clicked inside him—a burning desire to avenge his mother, who had shielded him from his abusive father. His father would come home late, drunk, and beat him and his mother, taking out his frustration over unpaid debts and the persistent threats from the loan shark. After all that messed-up shit, good things started happening to him. He was adopted by loving new parents and received a teacher who genuinely wanted to help him improve every day. But after all he’d endured, his mindset had changed entirely at a young age. Nobody could be trusted, and only the dead could keep their mouths shut. With this mindset, he manipulated everyone around him to maintain a peaceful life so he could peacefully kill every member of the Vorontsov bloodline—the ones who caused his suffering. ### He did everything he could: research, spending money without a care, hiring mercenaries, and achieving the revenge he so desperately sought. But in the end, he felt empty—a soul without any purpose, which led him to take his own life right after accomplishing his revenge. But was that all? Of course not. After he died, something amazing, eye-popping, and hard to believe happened—he somehow reincarnated into an unknown world where the strong rule and the weak kneel. A world where immortality is not a dream, and the power to destroy millions of universes with a single snap is a reality. This was the new reality for Ivan, who longed to rest in his mother’s embrace after all that had happened. Upon reincarnation, he also received something else: a magical entity called "The Netori System." A system that empowers him if he NTRs others and takes their wives or girlfriends. It also told him something he thought impossible—that he could even revive his mother who died years ago. With a new purpose driving him, he set out to NTR everyone, especially those called "Sons of Destiny," who get everything handed to them on a silver platter. *** This is a slow-paced novel.

Villain's Contract With The God

Asher Amir Vaishè, the son of a Marquis, is known for his good heart. Yet, despite his benevolent nature, he is despised by his family and everyone around him, simply for existing. He's come to believe that people never change—a sentiment that may seem naive for someone so young, but is it really? In a world where individuals would die to form a contract with a Seraph, a powerful creature from the dimension of Serakhshá, these contracts bestow magical runes upon the chosen, granting them extraordinary abilities. Asher's life is further complicated by a mysterious phenomenon: a time loop triggered during his contract ceremony. This inexplicable loop forces him to relive the same seven years, starting from the day he's destined to marry, over and over again. After enduring this repetitive nightmare three times, Asher decides to alter a minor event at his academy ball. This small change sets off a cascade of new events, leading him to an encounter with God, Middos. Middos offers Asher a choice: continue his cursed existence or seize an opportunity to gain power at a significant cost. Will Asher choose the power to change his fate? *** Note for readers: First things first, please read all the non-privileged chapters before deciding to drop the story. The MC won't be a typical villain who gets his way every time with a lot of plot armor.

Oh, My God

** VERY LOOSELY BASED ON HADES AND PERSEPHONE** Seeing her in deep thought, the God mused, “You aren’t obligated to believe me, but the point remains — you,” He hooked his finger under her chin to force her unfocused gaze to his, “belong to me. And I am not adept at sharing my belongings with anyone.” --- A woman bound to duty. A God bound to fate. And a Goddess that will do everything in her power to keep them apart. As a saintess-in-training, Clover knows better than anyone that getting involved with a God is nothing more than a death sentence. A God’s love has always led humans to one or two things: cursed or dead. They’re meant for being worshipped, not loved, her mother instills in her. And yet, somehow, Clover finds herself second-guessing this sentiment when a particular God takes an interest in her and whisks her away to the Underworld as his unwilling prisoner. He strikes a deal with her - heal him of the curse that’s plagued him for a millennium and regain her freedom or lose her humanity and become his undying Queen — forever. Humans had never been a point of interest for Aidoneus. He found them to be pathetic creatures that allowed their emotions to get the better of them — until he met her again. Suddenly, he could understand why men fought to the death and kings waged war over their lovers. As soon as her familiar eyes met his, he knew he would be willing to set the entire world ablaze to keep her warm. He doesn’t mean to trap her in the Underworld, but he also can’t survive another century without her. This time, he would overturn Fate itself to keep her.
