Her Dark Obsession A Dark Fantasy Romance Prologue: The Unseen Watcher The night air was thick with magic. Lucian stood in the shadows, watching her. He had watched her for years, unseen and unnoticed, his presence lingering in the corners of her world. Sophia was human—or so she thought. Living a normal life, laughing with her friends, excelling in school, and basking in the love of her foster parents. She was perfection wrapped in innocence, oblivious to the dark forces that circled her, waiting for her awakening. And now, the time had come. Her transformation was beginning. Lucian clenched his fists. He knew what this meant. Every supernatural being that felt the surge of her power would come for her—some to worship, some to kill, and others, like him, to claim. She was his fated mate. The prophecy was clear. And yet, she didn’t know him. Not yet. But she would.

NOT ANOTHER SYSTEM NOVEL?! Sure, Zander has a system, but he only uses it when it’s convenient. He has bigger and better things to deal with, like “phoenixes mate for life,” and “I was “born to save the world.” Despite growing up with really only one friend, he’s top of his class, despite being 6’4 and chiseled. He’s too oblivious to notice all the girls, but that’s all his best friend Cyrus tries to get in his free time. Two girls finally look their way. What will they do?! Cover art features Zander and Sophie, the main characters, as well as a dragon… well you’ll get to know him in arc 2. Talking animals, talking beasts and what’s up with that Chrono Trigger esque spikey golden hair? Arc l is pretty lovey dovey but arc ll is where the action really heats up. Could it be possible they use their phoenixes outside of their bodies? Perhaps they can use them like auras, like chakra in lots of anime? Who knows?! Spoiler alert: I do, and you will too, if you read this book! Regular Synopsis: The prologue: In order to set the stage for the story, I felt the prologue was necessary. I hope you enjoy the backstory and context of why Arc 1 starts off with the main character, “Finding a Mate.” This is not a typical system novel, although the main character's system plays a vital role, it’s not something I leaned heavily into. Hope you enjoy it! Arc 1: “Finding a Mate” Synopsis: Over 260 years passed since Theo’s great betrayal, and Zander Elrod is growing up as a normal teenager to a very well known and wealthy family. His parents' generosity and dedication to helping others drives him to be the best, and he and his best friend Cyrus couldn’t be closer. After meeting two girls, he and Cyrus begin to learn more about the world as disaster strikes. How will they respond? Why is Zander such a lone wolf? Can he ever live up to his potential? These are all questions he faces at a young age and his choices in this arc set forth the path to forge his own destiny. If you like Phoenixes, lots of plot twists and lore, with amazing characters and even better antagonists, this is the place for you! Arc 2: Will be featured soon, don’t want to spoil anything!

Armed with the Staff of Chaos and the Sword of Severance, Seiya walks a path carved from vengeance and revelation.

Author, God or Plaything? Zar had just finished writing the prologue of his magnum opus—The Nexus Verse—a boundless verse of multiverses, godlike beings, and an elite academy meant to shape the strongest entities in existence. Years of meticulous world-building, complex power systems, and lore so deep it could drown a god… and yet, it was all just fiction. Until it wasn’t. On the night of his 22nd birthday, reality itself fractured. In an instant, he was torn from his world—only to awaken within the Nexus Verse as one of its rulers. There was just one problem. He had only written the prologue. Everything beyond that? Scattered notes. Unfinished ideas. Incomplete power systems. The vast, living, breathing multiverse around him was full of gaps he never filled. The beings he once considered mere characters now had wills of their own, and some of them were already far beyond his control. To make matters worse, the Nexus Academy—his ultimate creation, the battleground where gods and devils alike trained to surpass reality—had just started its entrance exam. And somehow, he was now part of it. Armed with only a mysterious system, fragmented knowledge of his own lore, and the terrifying realization that he may have made this world far too overpowered, Zar has only one goal: Survive. Because in a world where destroying a multiverse is just a Tuesday challenge, where ancient beings lurk in the void waiting for a single mistake, and where the strongest warriors wield power beyond his comprehension... Being the author doesn’t mean he’s the one in control. After all, if this verse was created… what destroyed the others? *****For fans of: Overpowered protagonists, cosmic-level world-building, reality-defying battles, eldritch horrors, and gods who fear greater forces.

The Aryans are a normal family, as normal as any other family could be. They're pretty well-off and the children are all successful. It's just that as a family with an immortal bloodline they have side jobs that aren't public-friendly. Say for example, guarding the boundary between the underworld and the mortal world. Or dealing with supernatural creatures here and there. Suffice to say, it makes it really hard to date.

But when everyone became equal to face the future, he soon realized no gift comes for free.. Just a warning. Volume 1 sets the atmosphere in a Earth slowly degenerating into chaos and can be considered as a big prologue.
