The Christmas Pact

The apocalypse is here, and it’s so overdone. Monsters? Check. Burning sky? Check. Random system that gives you powers but also wants your firstborn? Double check. In the middle of this mess are two guys who couldn’t be more mismatched if they tried: The Fool: A guy who’s spent his life perfecting the art of doing nothing. His resume includes “professional procrastinator”, “class clown”, “expert nap taker”, etc... Now he’s got to survive an apocalypse that didn’t even give him a heads-up. How rude. The Regressor: A guy who’s lived through the end of the world more times than he can count. Literally. Because he forgot. Now he’s just a brooding mess with a leather jacket and zero useful advice. When the fool realizes his classmate is a regressor, he’s like, “Great. I’m stuck with the guy who’s seen it all but remembers none of it. This’ll go well.” Yet, they will still group up and face trials that test their sanity more than their skills. But as the so-called End demands more blood and the regressor’s memories start to resurface, they realize the real apocalypse might be their inability to agree on where to hide. Fool: "Let’s hide in the basement!" Regressor: "Basements are death traps. We should go to the roof." Fool: "Roofs are for dramatic exits. I’m not dying for aesthetics!" Anyway, can a lazy dreamer and an amnesiac hero save the world? Probably not. But hey, at least they’ll have a good story to tell—if they survive. ________ __ Please note that this story is a work of fiction and a product of the author's imagination.

Seir had just made a pact with an Abyss Demon and was set for a restful sleep(before destroying the Imperial Palace in the Morning), when she was jolted awake with a bang and dragged from her cell. Now, she has to navigate as a hostage/slave/scout of the hero party while hiding her demons(literally)—all for an uncertain chance at reducing her sentence.

If the 19-year-old teenager Sevina Vishwakarma knew that she would be running away for her dear life from her own mother, then maybe she wouldn't have gone and looked for her in the first place. As a last resort to seduce her wealthy friend, Sevina's mother spiked his drink. But she had to leave in the middle of attending to him due to an emergency. Unfortunately, her daughter, who has no idea what was going on, was the one to face the lascivious 36-year-old Alpha in rut. After realising that her daughter was pregnant with her love interest's baby, Sevina's mother did everything she could to terminate her daughter's pregnancy.  When all else failed, she fed her daughter poison herself and left her to die in the Yamuna River. But what both mother and daughter didn't know is that in their world of only werewolves, there was a hybrid in their midst. Or that their involvement will shake up a thirty-year-old pact. *** Note: This author will not give warnings for any scene in the book.

Elias Verden never intended to play Black Desert Online. He certainly never meant to create a breathtakingly beautiful swordswoman and abandon her before even starting the game. But when a single careless click pulls him into the world he barely understood, Elias finds himself trapped—not as the adventurer he imagined, but as something far more dangerous. He has become a Black Spirit—a being of whispers and temptation, a guide and a curse, a force meant to shape heroes and consume them in equal measure. And standing before him, blade in hand, is the woman he once left behind—Ume, the Maehwa warrior he never played, yet who now breathes, moves, and glares at him with a fury born from abandonment. But the world they find themselves in is not the game he knew. There are no glowing markers, no system menus, no convenient respawns. Here, every step carries weight, every battle demands skill, and every mistake has consequences. Worse still, Elias is changing—his thoughts darker, his instincts sharper, his very existence bound to Ume’s fate in ways neither of them yet understand. Lost, confused, and utterly unprepared, the pair must navigate a world where legends are real, power is earned through blood and sweat, and the line between player and pawn is dangerously thin. But as Elias’s strength grows, so too does the shadow curling at the edges of his mind. Is he still himself? Or is the Black Spirit he has become merely waiting—biding its time—until there is nothing left of Elias Verden at all? Themes & Appeal: Dynamic Character Growth: A story that explores what happens when an idealist is thrown into a world where power is not given, but taken, and where survival demands more than just skill—it demands sacrifice. A Unique Protagonist Role: Unlike typical transported-to-a-game stories, Elias is not the adventurer—he is the Black Spirit itself, a being meant to guide and corrupt, torn between his human nature and the dark power awakening within him. Complex Relationships: Ume and Elias’s dynamic is tense, layered, and deeply personal—a warrior abandoned by her creator, and a creator who never meant to become the very thing meant to consume her. A World Beyond the Game: This is no longer Black Desert Online—this is a world where the game’s rules do not apply, and both Ume and Elias must learn what it truly means to carve their own path. Tagline: "He was meant to be the player. Now he is the curse that binds her fate."

Excerpt: Ethan's eyes gleamed with amusement as he whispered in Ava's ear, "You know, wife, you're adorable when you're trying to be stern." He was leaning against the wall, his arms crossed, his gaze fixed on her with an intensity that made her heart race. Ava's eyes flashed with irritation, her cheeks flushing. "Ethan, stop teasing me. We need to focus on our plan." She tried to sound firm, but her voice trembled slightly, betraying her frustration. Ethan's grin only grew wider. "Oh, come on, Ava. You know I'm just trying to lighten the mood. You're so serious all the time." He pushed off the wall, his movements fluid and graceful, and took a step closer to her. Ava's hands clenched into fists, her voice firm. "This isn't a game, Ethan. Our lives are at stake. We can't afford to make mistakes." She tried to sound convincing, but her eyes kept drifting to his, and she couldn't help but notice the way his eyes crinkled at the corners when he smiled. Ethan's expression turned innocent, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Who says I'm not taking it seriously? Maybe I'm just trying to distract you from the tension between us." He raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on hers, and Ava felt her heart skip a beat. "There's no tension, Ethan. We're just allies in this marriage pact," she lied, trying to sound convincing. But her voice was barely above a whisper, and Ethan's knowing gaze made her feel like he could see right through her. Ethan's chuckle was low and husky. "Keep telling yourself that, Ava. But I see the way you look at me sometimes... like you're trying to resist a temptation." He took another step closer, his eyes locked onto hers, and Ava felt her pulse race. "I don't know what you're talking about," she lied again, trying to sound convincing. But her eyes darted away, betraying her. Ethan's whisper was soft, his breath caressing her ear. "Oh, but I think you do, Ava. And soon, you'll have to admit it." His words sent shivers down her spine, and Ava knew she was in danger of falling for her husband's charms, even though she refused to admit it. The air was charged with tension, their banter a delicate dance of denial and attraction. And in that moment, Ava knew she was walking a thin line between resistance and surrender.

In a land constantly shrouded by crimson-hued rain, a world torn apart by clan warfare and supernatural forces, a trio of warriors bound by an ancient curse embarks on a journey of vengeance, redemption, and self-destruction. Ryoujin, the cunning, emotionless leader, leads his companions Shion and Akira, each marked by the cursed symbol of the Ebon Pact, a pact forged in the blood of the fallen and entwined with the fate of their bloodline. Decades ago, the massacre of Ryoujin's clan by the power-hungry emperor set the world on a path of sorrow, while a forbidden pact between man and spirit granted those left behind supernatural power in exchange for an inescapable cost. Now, the trio has returned, cloaked in darkness and seeking vengeance against the emperor, whose ambition for immortality threatens not only the lives of his enemies but the very fabric of existence itself. As they infiltrate the empire's power structures, their pursuit of justice grows twisted by shadow manipulation, blood magic, and elemental destruction. The three warriors are pushed beyond the limits of mortal strength, with each use of their powers severing a piece of their humanity. But vengeance is only the beginning—beyond personal revenge lies a far more dangerous truth. The emperor seeks to pierce the veil between the living and the dead, to transcend mortality and control life itself, threatening to undo the balance between realms and doom the world to an endless cycle of torment. Ryoujin’s ultimate goal transforms from simple revenge into a dark obsession to unlock the true power of the Ebon Pact. As he seeks to manipulate time and rewrite the past, Ryoujin discovers the cost of tampering with fate is far greater than he could ever imagine. With the land weeping with the souls of the lost, his quest takes a terrifying turn as he is confronted with the choice to either destroy the cycle of suffering or embrace the corruptive power to gain absolute control over destiny, ultimately deciding whether his soul—and the world itself—will be redeemed or consumed in darkness. In this epic tale of revenge, sacrifice, and moral ambiguity, Shadows in the Crimson Rain follows a trio of warriors haunted by their past, bound by an unbreakable pact, and torn between their thirst for vengeance and the haunting consequences of their powers. Will they save the world—or bring it to ruin? Only time—and the choices they make—will tell.

Zelene is moving a few boxes into the house with the help of her 12-year-old son, Mikey.
