Return To The King

The idea of an identical double of oneself is part of ancient German legends, a myth that has survived in various forms to this day. It is a subject full of mystery, a concept that inspires shocking stories, such as seeing one's own double and suffering a misfortune or a curse. Although, in strictly rational terms, these stories are nothing more than unscientific myths. Ethan's sister thought so too, until she was faced with what was in front of her. A doppelganger... Meeting one should be something unreal, something disposable; but what if someone's double was right next to you? The essence of a person cannot be defined in a single word. It is made up of their experiences, the places they have visited, their environment... Could there really be someone in the world capable of replicating all that? At first, the idea seems absurd. It is irrational. If someone familiar appeared, one would instantly notice any difference. And if you don't notice... are you just naive? Thinking logically, that's reasonable. Therefore, Ethan's sister couldn't understand what she had just heard. "You mean to tell me that you are my brother Ethan, the real one who disappeared in 2028, and that he is just your double?" In front of Ethan's sister stood two men identical in appearance and complexion. The year 2028... That was the year of "The Final Judgement" on Earth, when portals opened and released monstrous creatures, and there were those who "Awoke" with special powers. The coincidence was impeccable. October 26, 2028. That day was not only the final judgement; it was also the birthday of both men in front of her. One claimed to have been transported to a strange world called "Terra Abismo" and that he had just returned that day; the other insisted that it was absurd, that he had never left. Today is October 31, 2038. A day when children should be playing and laughing, and instead, this. Evidently, one of them is lying. Ethan's sister exhaled, frustrated. "This is crazy." It sounds like something out of a novel. A novel in which doubles exist.

In a world where empires rise and fall, one nation's legacy is woven with the echoes of a single, extraordinary figure-the Founder. His teachings built a land of unity and hope, but as centuries passed, ambition and division began to fray the bonds he had forged. Now, in a kingdom teetering on the edge of ruin, a child is born on the outskirts of its crumbling glory. Unbeknownst to all, his presence carries the promise of change-a force capable of reshaping the destiny of the nation. This is a tale of perseverance and reclamation, where the weight of the past collides with the uncertainty of the future. As the shadows of betrayal and ambition threaten to consume all, one question remains: can the heart of a nation be rebuilt when its very soul is forgotten? All Rights Reserved

"Have you ever lied to me crown prince?" A woman with soft brown waves spread on the grassy field asked. She was staring at the peaceful moonlit sky, enjoying the calm company of the man beside her. If she turned her head to look into his eyes, she would have noticed a momentary flicker in his eyes. "You think I would?" The slender man, caressed her head gently as his husky voice fell into her ears, filling her face with a gentle smile. She raised her hand to touch his defined jawline. Under the Petalwood both of them exchanged a loving look between each other. --------------------------------- "You hate me." He wasn't asking. He stated facing the woman he just couldn't stop loving. He felt helpless as the icicle turned sharper and sharper before finally piercing through his heart. Yet he was unwilling. Unwilling to hurt her. And at this point he couldn't defend himself without hurting her. Her eyes that had always gazed back at him with nothing but indifference and hatred, made him feel clueless. "They say eyes never lie. They must have never seen yours." She spoke coldly, a mocking smile lacing her lips, as she pushed the icicle further with her ice essence. Author's Note - Cover made by AI

This is the story of Lara, a young woman from modern times, raised with one singular purpose: to exact revenge on the family of the general who destroyed her own. But fate had other plans. On her way to carry out her mission of vengeance, a twist in the plan led to disaster. Lara was struck by a military truck escorting the very general she intended to assassinate. When she awoke, she found herself in an entirely different world—one where her identity and purpose were starkly different from the life she had known and how she had been molded to be. Abducted by human traffickers, she outsmarted them and escaped. Then, she encountered a mysterious martial arts master whose ancient skills far surpassed her own. For two years, she trained with him in the remote mountains.  One fateful day, while hunting deep in Mount Ourea, Lara stumbled upon the Prince of Northem, disguised as a commoner. He was gravely injured while pursuing a notorious group of bandits. Lara saved him then vanished without a trace. Haunted by his savior, the Prince of Northem searched for her but to no avail. Duty called, and he rejoined the Northem army, embroiled in a fierce battle against the bandits and soldiers of Estalis in the Alta-Sierra mountain range. Amid the chaos, Lara was mistakenly swept onto the battlefield, disguised as a soldier. The Prince of Northem, intrigued by the disguised warrior, recruited him as his guard. During the battle, fate played another cruel hand. Lara came face to face with General Odin and his two sons—only to discover that General Odin was the spitting image of the general she had been trained to assassinate. Could the man from her world be a descendant of this brave general? Torn between her mission and her newfound reality, Lara faced an impossible question: How could she kill her biological father? Her internal conflict deepened when she uncovered an elaborate plot to frame General Odin and his sons as traitors. The true culprits? His own subordinates and trusted allies. In an ironic twist of fate, Lara found herself becoming the 'protector' of the family that, in modern times, she was supposed to ruin. After the war, Lara returned as a hero, ready to reveal her identity to General Odin, but she learned of another betrayal. Her cousin, Mira—the orchestrator of her abduction—had taken over her identity. Mira lived in her home under the guise of comforting Lara's grief-stricken mother because of the death of her only daughter. Not only that, she also did a lot of scheming and eventually claimed Lara's betrothal to Prince Alaric. With her identity stolen and her mission turned upside down, Lara faced a new challenge: reclaiming her life and honor and protecting her new family.

[MATURE CONTENT] Arella is an angel. Well, she used to be an angel. A real, bona fide, halo-wearing, wing-flapping celestial being. That was until one tiny whoopsie where she unfortunately burns a pair of wings at a banquet happens. Fine! There was more than one tiny whoopsie. Fast forward a few hours later, and Arella found herself booted from the pearly gates with nothing but her wings and an eviction notice. Her family called it a "vacation." Ha! A vacation, in the human realm of all places! One hundred years later, Arella calls it her new life. Turns out, living among humans isn’t half bad—especially when you can turn invisibly smug at their lack of ability to fly. Early retirement has never been so blissful. That is, until the heavens smack her face with a message: Arella’s back on duty. And her new job? Marry. The. Demon. King. Wait, what?! Marrying the Demon King isn’t exactly on Arella’s bucket list, especially when demons and angels have been sworn enemies for eons. But orders are orders. So, off she goes, wings drooping and attitude cranked to full sass, to meet her new husband—a devilishly handsome demon who seems unnervingly smitten with her. Not to mention the heat that surges within her the moment she lays her eyes on him. Cue in dinner dates, fiery arguments (literally), and a series of catastrophes involving Arella purposefully setting a demon's hair ablaze with her holy fire. But as Arella settles into this bizarre celestial-demonic union, she uncovers a sinister plot that threatens not just her marriage but their entire reality. Turns out, angels and demons might have to join forces to stop a threat that neither side can handle alone. And Arella? She might just be the unexpected key to saving everyone. Armed with nothing but her quick wit, trusty angelic powers, and a painfully doting husband who may or may not leave her love notes carved into rock when she is angry, Arella must navigate battles, betrayals, and the occasional marital spat to protect their world. After all, nothing says “happily ever after” like saving existence itself, .... right? Right? One fallen angel. One absolutely smitten demon king. And a whole lot of chaos.

The era of human dominance on Earth had come to an end. Dragonborns, powerful beings with divine abilities, now ruled the world. Humans were relegated to slavery, forced to construct grand castles and labor on farmlands for their dragon overlords.

This prosperous kingdom had a dark secret behind its success and resilience against the dragonborns’ threats. Every decade, the dragonborns of Scalethorne demanded a tribute of slaves from Eldoria, and the time for the next offering was drawing near. In accordance with the kingdom's customs, King Rodric prepared slaves and a rare mineral resource to appease the dragon king. However, Rodric was horrified when the demand turned to something far more precious. His daughter, Aria.

They've taken her family from her and thus she harbors a hatred, vowing to take her revenge and kill the one responsible for the destruction of her world: Leonis Rein; supreme ruler of the demon world. Leonis is a man who doesn't believe in love. He believes in taking possession of whatever catches his attention… And she did. He meets Kiva, and her aggressive, persistent nature draws him to her. Slowly, Leonis starts harboring an unhealthy obsession for Kiva. Kiva would do any and everything to put a knife in the heart of Leonis, or die doing so. But Leonis doesn't plan on letting death take her. At least not yet. *** Excerpt Holding both my hands tightly together behind me with just one of his own, Leonis pressed his broad chest upon my back as I wriggled and try to get out of his stronghold. A gesture I knew was futile because he was strong, very strong. "Run if you like." His whisper sounded next to my left ear, and I wished to deny it, I wished to tell myself I don't feel it, but I do. I feel a certain tingle every time this demon is this close to me. "I will pursue you. Hide if you must, I shall find you, and die if you choose, I shall make death cough your soul back into your cold body." I knew it. He will never let me go.
