Title: Scarlet Stormborne Genre: Fantasy Romance | High School | Reverse Harem | Supernatural Mystery Scarlet Stormborne doesn't belong at Crescent Hollow Academy, and everyone knows it the moment she walks in. Dressed in a forbidden scarlet uniform, with hair too white and eyes too deep, she is an anomaly in a school built on bloodlines, power ranks, and control. Crescent Hollow isn't just any school—it's the top supernatural academy in the world, where only the elite among witches, wolves, and shifters are invited, and where hierarchy is not just practiced—it's enforced. Students are divided by strength, species, and ancient houses. Alphas rule at the top, particularly the Fanged Four: Draven, Damian, Devon, and Dexter. They share everything—power, enemies, tension, and silence. But when Scarlet arrives, she doesn't just catch their attention; she disrupts their very foundation. She isn't scanned by the biometric systems. She can't be placed. No known species. No magic match. Just a blank slate with too much silence around her name. That silence, however, is not emptiness. It's suppression. Scarlet has no idea who she truly is. Raised in a quiet, privileged foster home with odd rules and stranger dreams, she's always been told to stay small, keep her hair dyed, and avoid hospitals. But in Crescent Hollow, the rules are different. People notice. Power attracts power. And the four most dangerous Alphas can't seem to stay away from her. Draven watches from the shadows, always near, always silent. Devon asks questions, digs into her background. Dexter pokes and prods, trying to trigger her reactions.

In a fractured world forged from the ashes of two fallen ones, humanity teeters on the brink of extinction. The apocalypse known as The First Selection carved a new reality—one ruled by Ranks. Born from the blood of primordial beasts, the ranked carry power beyond comprehension. From E to SSS, strength dictates worth. The lowest crawl. The highest—SSS—are worshipped as gods. At the heart of this cruel resurrection stands Amanda Vire, a former imperial researcher excommunicated for her obsession with demon blood experimentation. In her quest for the apex of human evolution, she creates the Belfrost Orphanage—a sanctuary for discarded children turned lab subjects. Her methods are brutal, her failures expendable. Among these discarded souls is Glass, a poor peasant-born boy injected with demon blood, destined to awaken as a Triple S Ranker. But fate recoils. Instead, he falls—landing one step below as SSR, the rank of “the failed gods.” Cast out into the cold after enduring Amanda’s torment, Glass survives in silence. His body holds forbidden instability, and his mind burns with quiet rage. Amanda, blind to the seeds of her undoing, pushes forward with ever more reckless experiments, leaving a trail of twisted remnants in her wake. Until one day—a pair of crimson eyes stare back at her through the remnants of what she rejected. Not just a child… not just a failed ranker… but a living contradiction to her vision. A reflection she cannot erase. A force she may not survive

"She was supposed to be silent. She chose chaos instead." At thirteen, Lorraine vowed to a boy, “I’ll be your poison. I’ll be your blade in the shadows. I’ll live for you.” The catch? She was supposed to be mute and deaf. The bigger catch? He was a hostage prince with no power. Raised in a household where her father adored her perfect half-sister Elyse, Lorraine was thrown into a political marriage with Prince Leroy. Unfortunately, he liked Elyse too. Of course he did. Lorraine played the role of the forgotten wife, but still gave it all. Loyalty, time, and space. The Silent Crown, they called her. Fitting, really. No one expected anything from her. Especially not betrayal. He came back from the war with a mistress, who was a living shadow of his first love. That was Lorraine’s breaking point. Divorce? Not allowed. Staying? Not an option. So, she gave herself one month. One month before she vanished from Vaeloria, from the life that had chewed her up and smiled while doing it. But before she left? She wanted revenge. On the father who put her through hell. On the sister who took her place. On everyone who hurt her and laughed at her. And continuing with… an affair… with Leroy. Yes, you read that right. Lorraine started a secret affair with her own husband. In the shadows. As someone else. Masked. Daring. Desired. And for the first time in her life, she was powerful. He doesn’t know it’s her. And she doesn’t care to correct him. She’ll ruin him with pleasure. Then leave him with regret. That was the plan. The kingdom has no idea what’s coming. The Silent Crown has stopped waiting to be loved. Now, she wants war. And she’ll watch it all burn from the shadows.

When a princess is kidnapped, Mikey—a completely average civilian with no wants, no needs, and no plan—is forced into heroism by the greatest threat of all: his annoyed mother and the lingering horror of maybe having to visit his grandparents. There’s just one problem. No one knows what the princess looks like. The king is useless. The quest map is from a tailor. And Mikey’s help is what he assumes to be a French-speaking goblin always worried about the wrong thing. Now, alongside the goblin Nickel (not his name), Mikey must cross lawless kingdoms, haunted forests, cursed seas, and actual Hell. All to face the infamous wizard hierarchy: Creepy Wizard Man. Super Evil Wizard Man. Really Evil Wizard Man. Evil Wizard Man. And yes, in that order. But somewhere along the way, people begin to whisper a different name: “The one who tamed the Green, silenced the Purple, shattered the Red, and defied the Black.” And Mikey, the one who never wanted to see his grandparents, has to go whether he likes it or not. __________________________________ “The bitch went and grew wings,” a knight muttered, sword in hand—the only thing between him and a lovely dinner being the overgrown reptile breathing fire in front of him. “Good men die; I choose not to.” — A random (absolute peak) villain

A girl born of fire. A prince forged from ice. A crown that could consume them both. Ariya has spent her life running — from soldiers, from fate, and from the strange burn-shaped mark that pulses on her skin. But when a deadly ambush awakens the fire inside her, everything changes. She doesn't burn. She commands the flame. On the run, she’s forced to trust a protective warrior, a sharp-tongued thief, and a laughing chaos-mage with terrifying power. Together, they uncover a secret buried in ancient ruins — Ariya is the last Flamebearer, heir to a power feared by kings. And one of those kings is watching. Prince Ruvan was born to conquer. Cold, brilliant, and merciless, he sets a trap to destroy her before she can rise. But the more he sees of Ariya, the more he starts to question everything — including himself. Tied by a mark, haunted by shared dreams, drawn together by something neither understands... Ariya and Ruvan are destined to collide. The crown is calling. But will she wear it... Or burn it down?

Lancelot Haier came from a dynasty of politicians who had ruled with tyranny and oppression. Despite those origins, he despised his family and was willing to help the citizens who had long suffered under their rule. However—before he even had the chance to change his country, the people revolted. His entire family was executed, and he was killed along with them. In his final moments, he wished for a second life—one where he could redeem himself and carry the sins of his bloodline. Unexpectedly, that wish was granted. He was reincarnated into another world as the crown prince of the Kingdom of Aragon. But in this world, everything felt backward. The country was ruled by an absolute monarch. Feudalism was the norm. Technology resembled that of the late 1700s. Fortunately, in his past life, he had earned degrees in both mechanical engineering and political science—knowledge he once hoped to use to reform his homeland. Now, it seemed he would use them here instead. He would use his modern knowledge to transform the lives of his people, industrialize his territory, gain the upper hand in technology, and form alliances with foreign nations—all while navigating the treacherous waters of internal affairs and politics. P.S While Reincarnated as the Crown Prince draws inspiration from historical settings, political systems, and technologies of the late 17th and early 18th centuries, this work is entirely fictional. All characters, governments, names, and events—although some may resemble real-world history—are products of the author’s imagination or are used in a fictionalized, altered form for narrative purposes. This novel is not a historical account. It should not be interpreted as a factual representation of any real monarch, nation, revolution, or political figure. Lancelot Haier, his backstory, and the alternate version of different kingdoms portrayed here are entirely original creations. The inclusion of familiar concepts like feudalism, industrialization, and political reform serves the plot and world-building, not historical documentation. Readers seeking accuracy in history are encouraged to consult verified academic sources. This story is a creative work meant for entertainment, character development, and speculative exploration of “what-if” scenarios rooted in alternate history.

In the beginning, there was only Darkness. From that endless void, a divine being was born—a god who shaped the heavens, the hells, and the many races of existence. But power invites betrayal. The god was murdered by those she once blessed. Her death echoed through time, forgotten by all... except one. He was never worshipped. Never remembered. Never named. Because he came before her.

The two stood back to back, slashing through waves of invaders like gods of war. They were outnumbered, surrounded, and still they stood tall — unbroken. Then came the voice — mocking, sharp, and venomous. > "King Edgar... or should I call you the failure king now? You're not as powerful as people think. Look around you...

“Every empire ends in silence. His just forgot to scream.” In a city carved from glass and steel, where thunder hides in boardrooms and empires wear suits instead of armor, Aldrin reigns from the top of the Aetherium Spire—not with a crown of gold, but one of consequence, silence, and fire. A man forged in forgotten wars, he built a godless dominion where diplomacy cuts deeper than blades, and betrayal is a language fluently spoken. But the storm doesn’t come with an army. It walks in quietly. Iris Cael arrives as a new recruit to Orion—young, brilliant, clean. Too clean. A whisper in a dossier. A lie waiting to be told. And Aldrin, haunted by ghosts he buried in data cores and ash, senses the tremor before the quake. As old shadows stir and forgotten names reemerge—chief among them, Mara, the woman who burned the world beside him before vanishing—Aldrin begins to unravel not from weakness, but from prophecy. His stillness isn’t peace. It’s the pause before ignition. Allies become watchers. Watchers become threats. The city begins to hum with a vibration too ancient for technology and too deliberate for coincidence. Beneath the contracts and campaigns lies something deeper: A reckoning. And Aldrin knows—when fire returns, it won’t ask for permission. It will ask what he’s willing to burn to stay in control.

Until... she accidentally saves a dying mysterious boy—Kael, who turns out to be the last heir of a cursed bloodline, banished centuries ago. His emotions are magic. Unfiltered. Explosive. And now bonded to Ariya, the only person who can suppress his chaos and stop the ancient curse eating him alive. Together, they’re forced into hiding. But there’s a catch: the more time they spend together, the more Ariya begins to feel. And as she starts to awaken emotionally, her null magic doesn't disappear—it morphs. She doesn’t just feel things. She begins to absorb and amplify the emotions of those around her, turning her into a magical bomb of empathy. As enemies close in and kingdoms wage war over control of Kael’s unstable powers, Ariya must choose: Stay emotionally numb and safe, Or unlock her power, fall in love, and risk losing everything in a magical meltdown that could destroy them both.

Somewhere between betrayal and magic, Kael must uncover the truth: Who is he really? And why is something... watching him?

What happens when an idol, renowned as "Prince Visual," is thrust into a marriage with the actual Prince of his country? **Disclaimer:** All establishments, terms, events, and characters featured in this story are entirely fictitious and crafted solely for the sake of entertainment. The story may contain sensitive topics. Royalty is often perceived as synonymous with perfection; however, the facade shatters behind closed doors. The Royal Family Wang, hailed as one of the most unproblematic influential families in the world, maintains its prestige primarily through curated features and polished articles. In truth, their legacy harbors secrets and bitter feuds—once revealed, could incinerate their esteemed reputation. Present at the center is King Wang Jae-Hwan, who, in a bid to secure his lineage’s claim to the throne, chose to marry into an influential Noble family. Beneath the polished exterior, however, lay deep-seated secrets. Although he professed love for his wife, loyalty was a luxury he couldn't afford; he betrayed her on their wedding night, resulting in the birth of a son. Wang Jae-Yul, unaware of his royal heritage, led a life filled with hardship and isolation. The king eventually discovered Jae-Yul, yet the Queen enforced her control that stifled any ambition or desire for power within Jae-Yul, effectively destroying any inclination to fight for the throne. In contrast, the life of an idol is similarly punctuated by high expectations and relentless pressure. The group LUMINA stands as a testament to perseverance, having been meticulously crafted from the ground up by its manager and visionary CEO, Han Eui-Jun. While the competitive landscape in the entertainment industry usually swallows its participants whole, LUMINA carved out a niche and rose to fame, bolstered primarily by its members' impressive backgrounds. Yet, the group’s most formidable asset was none other than the radiant visual and face of LUMINA, dubbed "Prince Visual," Lee Ha-Neul. His captivating charisma and talent created an undeniable draw, securing LUMINA's place in the industry. But the tale unfolds beyond mere struggles and bittersweet endings, as two individuals, who have devoted everything to the pursuit of success, find themselves entwined in a destiny marked by conflict and unexpected encounters. Jae-Yul's life changed when he lost his mother. She, having lived under the shadow of the Queen, made a solemn vow to protect Jae-Yul from the painful truth of his noble lineage, a choice that plunged them both into hardship and concealment. It was only after her untimely death that she unveiled her secrets, leaving behind a letter that detailed everything. Initially consumed with thoughts of revenge against the royal family, Jae-Yul soon realized that his desire would be futile against such powerful enemies. Jae-Yul began to rebuild his life, and through continuous struggle, he found himself standing before the king to reveal the truth. The king, realizing the Queen's influence, employed sufficient pressure on her until she reluctantly agreed to accept Jae-Yul. However, she imposed a strict condition: no one must know of his existence prior to this revelation. Fast forward 8 years, in an unexpected turn, Jae-Yul entered Ha-Neul's life and proposed to him through his influence. However, once engaged, he neglected Ha-Neul for 4 years, which made Ha-Neul end the engagement publicly. Faced with the reality that he could no longer manipulate Ha-Neul's feelings, Jae-Yul now had to figure out how to win him back. Would he resort to deception or intimidation, emotional manipulation, or find it within himself to genuinely love? The question loomed large: what would it take for Ha-Neul to be persuaded to marry Jae-Yul once again?
