Afar Antonym

The Voidlands is a mythic, poetic odyssey set after the fall of all known creation. In the wake of Earth’s collapse and the unraveling of the stars, only a single island remains — floating in a weightless sky where time has shattered and memory falters. Two cosmic beings linger in silence. The Keeper, a radiant force of creation, dreams worlds into being but cannot finish them. She feels something is missing — a longing unspoken, a fear unnamed. Her every step brings forth beauty and wonder, yet she remains deeply alone, haunted by the ache of what could have been. The Severant, a solemn force of unmaking, walks in stillness and judgment. He was once a guardian, perhaps a god, now reduced to the last witness of a lawless void. He craves order, seeks purpose, and wishes to rule — yet no one remains to follow, no one to judge. He watches the Keeper from afar with quiet sorrow… and unknowing love. Between them, the island persists: a surreal haven carved from forgotten dreams, both nursery and tomb. And in the heart of it stands the Temple, sealed and ancient, hiding the truths they no longer remember. They orbit each other like dead stars, drawn by yearning and repelled by fear. Creation and destruction. Light and silence. A forgotten past… and the fragile hint of a future. But something stirs. And in a place where nothing remains, something new might yet be born.

Fifteen years ago, Asahi Ryuuji was just a humble farmer and martial arts enthusiast from Earth—until he was transported to another world and gifted with an extraordinary power known only as the [Gift of the World]. Chosen as humanity’s last hope, he fought endlessly across kingdoms, ravaged battlefields, and against time itself. And finally, he did the unthinkable: he defeated the Demon Lord and his four strongest generals in a single, world-shaking battle. But victory didn’t bring him peace. Haunted by the countless lives he ended—even those of monsters—Asahi vanished from the world he saved. No grand parades. No goodbyes. No crown. He retreated to the most dangerous and uncharted island in the realm, where nature is wild, magic is ancient, and dragons still roam. There, he began a new life—one of soil, silence, and healing. Now 35 years old, Asahi farms quietly, surrounded by beasts most would flee from, and seeks only the comfort of growing things and listening to the wind. But the world hasn't forgotten him. Neither has she. Elysia—the Dragon Queen, strongest of her kind and ruler of skies—descends upon his island, not with fire or fury, but with understanding. Having watched from afar as Asahi sacrificed everything, she comes not to drag him back to glory, but to stay... by his side. This is not the story of battles and heroes. It is the story of what happens after the final war. Of quiet mornings, shared meals, and slowly blooming love. Of a man learning how to live again.

Every look, every whisper, every glance from afar… he craved more. What he doesn’t know is that the girl he secretly wants is also the masked hero that saves the humans at night. And what Li Mei doesn’t know is that Zhao Wei has already decided. She’s his. Whether she wants it or not.

(Matured Content-No rape) “She was promised to a prince. But taken by a monster who calls himself king.” In a realm ruled by blood and empire, twenty-four kingdoms bow to one throne — and at the center of it sits Emperor Zareth Ravaryn, a vampire older than most dynasties, cold as obsidian, and feared as much as he is obeyed. Princess Serenya of Vayrana was never meant to catch his eye. Gentle. Devoted. Already betrothed to the human prince she loved from afar. But one imperial ceremony changed everything. When the Emperor sees her — veiled in gold, eyes full of light — he names her his future Empress. She refuses. He doesn’t ask twice. Now torn from her homeland and chained in silk and duty, Serenya finds herself in a court of shadows, where power is worn like perfume and secrets drip from every whispered bow. But Zareth is not just the monster she feared. He is obsessed. And his obsession doesn’t break... it consumes. As the blood empire trembles under rebellion, forbidden longing ignites between captive and captor, and the girl who once dreamt of love must decide: Will she fight for her freedom— or burn for his throne? Dark fantasy meets imperial seduction in this slow-burn vampire romance — with original lore, dangerous rituals, forbidden love, and a heroine who was never meant to kneel. Welcome to the Empire of Thorns. Where love is a game only monsters win. #bookone of The Empire of Thorns series --- Excerpt. A man stood before her. Not just any man. The man. Eyes like twin flames. Lips curled into a knowing smirk. A voice like thunder dipped in velvet. "And who might you be, little dove?" Zareth purred. Serenya's heart slammed against her ribs. "I-I'm... I was just—" "Lost?" he finished for her, his tone mocking yet oddly amused. She nodded, clutching her veil tighter. His eyes trailed down the curve of her figure, and then back to her eyes. "You're not from around here," he said, though he already knew. "I'm from Vayrana," she managed, voice barely above a whisper. His grin widened. "That explains the veil. So well-behaved. So sweet." He stepped closer, and she instinctively backed up—until her back hit the wall. "Running off alone into a palace full of monsters... either you're braver than you look, or dumber," he drawled, eyes gleaming. Her eyes widened at the insult, but something in his tone kept her frozen. "I didn't mean to be disrespectful—" "Oh, but you weren't," he interrupted. "In fact, you've just made this entire evening… interesting." He reached out, adjusting the edge of her veil with a gentleness that contradicted his deadly aura. "What's your name, dove?" She hesitated. "Your name," he repeated, voice darker now. "I don't ask twice." "Serenya," she whispered. He leaned in, mouth brushing close to her ear. "Serenya," he repeated, tasting it. "Pretty name. Suits you." Then, as quickly as he came, he stepped back. The moment shattered. "Go on now, little dove. Before your father comes searching."

As the two protagonists grow apart, Alex struggles with the pain of loss, while Leo is surrounded by challenges that force him to use his powers more and more. The world has become a place where survival of the fittest, and Leo finds himself torn between his new identity and the love he still feels for Alex. When their paths cross again, Alex realizes that to protect Leo and earn his trust, he will need to face not only the hordes of zombies but also the ghosts of his past.

He didn't know that the omega had a magical jade space around his neck where another survivor was hiding, waiting for the opportunity to kill him. The last thing Alex saw before he died was the omega transforming into his appearance and handing the necklace to someone else, apparently another omega. He wasn't sure because his vision was getting dark, but all he could think about was Leo. Reborn, waking up weak, sick, and the victim of a trap 2 years before the apocalypse Alex has to fix his relationship with Leo.

He calls it “Jogo Sem Bola”—the game without the ball. João accepts. He will train in secret. No spotlight. No club. No recognition. Just the work.

"I wanted him to see me. Now he can't look away." He was perfect. Successful. Charming. The kind of man women crave without ever touching. But I didn't want just a moment- I wanted forever. So I did what no sane woman would ever do: I took him. And now, as he stands in front of me with those eyes-dark, dangerous, devouring-I know: He's not the kind of man you admire from afar. He's the kind of man you fear. Those eyes-damn those eyes. They speak louder than words. They see me like I'm everything he's ever wanted. But in that gaze, there's no love. Only something deeper. Darker. What began as obsession has become something far more dangerous- a twisted game of control, power, and desire. And there's no way out. Not for him. Not for me. For those who believe in the darker side of love- and are willing to lose control to find it.

Based on the tale told before us, Medusa was a beautiful maiden who was seduced by Poseidon in a temple of Athena. Such a sacrilege attracted the goddess' wrath, and she punished Medusa by turning her hair to snakes. Then, the Greek hero Perseus beheaded Medusa, and he used her head, which retained its ability to turn onlookers to stone, as a weapon until he gave it to the goddess Athena to place on her shield.

Her lover at the time, the powerful goddess Athena, saw that Medusa had fallen to the seduction of men, and in her wrath, she cursed Medusa by turning her hair to snakes. Athena then kicked Medusa out, far from her temple and home. Medusa met Perseus, but he did not kill her.

He was the man who had it all — not just born with a silver spoon, but a diamond spoon. A walking empire. A storm dressed in silk. Billionaire by brilliance, desired by millions, envied by all. With a mind like a machine, a body sculpted like a god, and a soul untouched by emotions, he ruled the world without a flicker of remorse. Women flocked to him. Men feared him. The word “love” was just a distraction — until fate turned its back. Betrayed by shadows in his empire, his car crashes under mysterious circumstances. The world mourns a king. But the gods don’t let go so easily. Blessed by the karmic legacy of his great-grandparents — saints who once helped the poor and earned divine blessings — he is given a second chance. A cruel one. Now, he awakens in the fragile body of a poor boy. No wealth. No identity. No control. But the mind of a billionaire remains. And so does the attitude. As he struggles through a harsh world of poverty and injustice, he'll need to learn what he always lacked — empathy, love, friendship, and vulnerability. The journey will be brutal. The climb, steeper than before. But he is not alone. His secretary from the past life, a quiet, calculating man with fierce loyalty and secrets of his own, is also reborn and finds him again — not as a servant this time, but as an equal, and perhaps... a rival. And then there's her — a woman from his past, from the golden halls of his empire. Someone he barely noticed — maybe a staff member, a caterer, or even just a girl waiting in line at his charity gala. She had seen him, admired him, maybe even loved him from afar. In this life, she's not afraid to challenge him, mock him, and strip away his arrogance, bit by bit. She remembers him. He doesn’t remember her. But fate has a plan. Now, in this second life — where power can't be bought, and respect must be earned — he must rebuild everything from scratch, learning not just how to be a king again… but how to be human.

Five heroes from different corners of the world, each with their own unique strengths and backgrounds, were drawn together by a common threat. The name Malacoda had begun to echo through the shadows—whispered in fear by those who knew the old stories. Malacoda, also known as Garma, was a being of immense power who had been resurrected by Erebus, the emperor of a distant, brutal world. Erebus had made a dark promise to Malacoda: immortality and the power to rule as king on Earth if he could bend humanity to his will. With his resurrection, Malacoda was filled with a renewed sense of purpose. He was not merely a weapon for Erebus; he was a conqueror in his own right. To announce his return, Malacoda sent three of his most loyal servants to Earth. Their message was simple and chilling: Malacoda had come to Earth, and the world had two weeks to decide whom they would serve. Would they bow before him, or face the consequences of their defiance? The announcement spread like wildfire, igniting fear and chaos across the globe. Governments scrambled to respond, while ordinary people were gripped by panic. In the midst of this turmoil, the five heroes—strangers to each other, yet united by fate—began to prepare for the coming battle. They each had their reasons for joining the fight. One sought redemption for past failures; another was driven by a sense of duty to protect the innocent. Each of them brought something different to the table: unmatched strength, cunning intelligence, mystical powers, and unshakable courage. They trained relentlessly, knowing that the odds were against them, but refusing to back down. As the two weeks passed, the tension in the air grew thicker. Malacoda made his presence known, appearing in terrifying visions and demonstrations of power that shook the foundations of cities.

In the fractured world of Luminora, where the arcane hums through the veins of steel and whispers linger in forgotten corners, a girl with golden locks treads lightly, her smile a fragile mask for a truth that could shatter everything. She clings to dreams too vivid to be mere memories and to a longing for something lost—something never spoken. She glances from afar to see a boy with hair as dark as the void walks unnoticed, his silence a riddle to the world around him. Their lives entwine, not by choice but by the pull of unseen strings, as shadows stretch across the light, and every step seems guided by forces neither can name. In a realm where hope glimmers faintly between cracks of despair, their journey unfolds—a delicate balance of joy and sorrow, of wonder and fear, as they seek to unravel the secrets binding them to the shifting edges of a world that defies understanding. What they find may reshape more than their fates, for some truths are too vast to stay buried, and some destinies too great to remain untold.

I’ve watched Ella from afar, loved her even when she didn’t know it. From the moment we met, I knew there was something different about her. Not the kind of different you notice because it’s loud, but the kind you feel—quiet, unshakable, haunting in the most beautiful way. Ella walks like she’s hiding, but I see her. Even when she pulls away, even when she pretends like she doesn’t care, I know it’s all armor. The world hasn’t been kind to her. People she trusted betrayed her, and the ones who were supposed to protect her turned their backs. Still, she survived it all. And yet, in all her surviving, she forgot that she’s allowed to live too. To breathe. To hope. To love.
