This story is about Xen's journey all over the Existence

Lisa has spent years loving Al from a distance—except that distance is just a few inches away, disguised as friendship. Every inside joke, every casual touch, every stupid argument is a reminder that he’s right there, but never hers. She’s convinced herself that being close to him, even as just a friend, is enough. Until it isn’t. Because one day, Al starts looking at someone else the way Lisa has always looked at him. And suddenly, she has to learn how to swallow heartbreak in silence. Lucas has spent years loving Lisa from the shadows, watching her chase a boy who never looks back. He’s always been the one to pick up the pieces, the one to listen to her late-night rants, the one who stays. He’s accepted that he’ll never be the reason for her smile, but when Lisa’s heart starts to break, he sees an opening. Maybe—just maybe—he can be the one to heal it. But love is never that simple. Because Al isn’t as blind as he seems. And maybe Lisa isn’t as indifferent to Lucas as she’s always pretended. Feelings are messy. Timing is cruel. And when hearts collide, someone always gets hurt. The real question is: Will Lisa finally learn the real meaning of love, or will she destroy it before she even gets the chance? *** Hey, it's your author here:> P.S: the cover picture doesn't belong to me.

{Check out my new novel, Misunderstood Villain: Heroines Mourn My Death} 'Born In Ruins' was a forgettable read. That was the only way Emir could describe the pages of the novel he had found himself reincarnated into. The young man barely knew anything, but the snippets he had recalled only caused him unending sorrow... As what awaited him was only tragedy and an early death. It was a depressing story, one that he had planned to flip on its head—all for his salvation. — In this post-apocalyptic world, monsters fought humans and cyborgs in a battle for survival on a scale greater than ever before. A world where innocence and death were a luxury, where the line between heroes and villains was razor-thin. Within its expanse, 'Ancient Clans,' 'Galactic Federations,' 'Factions', and 'Corporations' presided over colossal 'Ruins' that dwarfed the concept of life itself. Survivors of the 'Third World War' continuously dove into the 'Old World,' 'Hunting' for 'Relics' in any ruin that they could find on Earth, desperate to reclaim 'Lost' technology, to stand a fighting chance against the inevitable. But it appeared that 'Earthkind' had met their match. …However, Emir would never allow that fate to take its course. — Emir unraveled layers of the tale and realized the truth of the world. He acquainted himself with the rules of this game before it fully consumed him. And now... no longer content with mere survival, he sought to dominate over the very fabric of this unforgiving universe. Emir shall rise from the pawn he once was, seeking to unravel the mysteries that hounded him. The boundaries of 'Aether,' his father’s disappearance, the noose hanging above his family’s head, and of course… his starless destiny, a fate he longed to control. This pursuit would earn him the epithet: "Prince Of The Fallen." ---------------------------------------------- *Tags: Reincarnation ;), Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Magical Realism, Academy (Volume 3), Romance, Apocalypse, {Anti-Hero. Villain.} *Expect this novel to start slowly; it begins ramping up at the halfway point of volume 1. *The Magic System is introduced at the end of volume 1, read my review and Auxiliary chapter for more on that. *Warning: The main characters have emotions like proper humans. So don't expect your usual emo kid as the MC and come complaining later.

Called from their homes to face the trials, Matthew and his friends must battle both monsters and themselves.

A young doctor felt exhausted by the hospital environment, the pressure from patients, time constraints, and the endless cycle of studying and exams. Finally, he made a bold decision: to return to a remote village and work as a doctor there, away from all that stress. In this monotonous life, there was only one thing that managed to ease his sadness a little. It was a small novel that a patient had given him. Unexpectedly, an unforeseen accident caused him to reincarnate as a minor character in that very novel. “Hahaha… At last, I can escape from that dull world!” "Now I'll use this knowledge to seize all the treasures and secrets meant for the main character... enough for me to live a peaceful and luxurious life in this world." ... "Wait, something’s wrong." "It seems the novel I read was just a poorly made copy of this world.” Everything was a surprise when the knowledge he possessed turned out to be a poorly replicated, predictable version, while the real world was the complete opposite. Here, the main character was decisive, shrewd, ruthless, killing without a second thought. The side characters were constantly entangled in cycles of killing and scheming. Not to mention, the fate of this damned world seemed to be like two sides of the same coin.

Ethan Miller never expected to become a hero. A single father trying to rebuild his life after betrayal and heartbreak, Ethan is focused on raising his daughters and finding stability in the quiet of the mountains.

Set in the enchanting backdrop of Silver Ridge, Book 1 of Rough Edges weaves a tale of second chances, unexpected connections, and the struggles of bridging vastly different worlds. As Ethan grapples with his past and Samantha confronts her own vulnerabilities, sparks fly, secrets unfold, and emotions run high. Will the rough edges of their lives smooth into something beautiful, or will the weight of their differences pull them apart? This is a story about love, redemption, and the courage to embrace life's imperfections-because sometimes, the most remarkable bonds are forged where the edges aren't perfect.

When the creatures advanced, the world was doomed to oblivion. Only ruins of cities and lost souls remained, struggling to survive the inevitable. However, Cosmic Energy brought with it a gift as enigmatic as it was dangerous: a power capable of saving the last survivors or condemning them for good. Dante never wanted to be a hero. Trained by his parents to face a future that crumbled before it arrived, he learned that survival requires more than courage – it demands sacrifice. Now, thrust into the Capital with the enigmatic warning: don’t be the protagonist. He finds himself at the center of a conflict larger than he ever imagined, where ancient secrets and relentless enemies test his every step. Amid improbable alliances and desperate battles, Dante will need to uncover the true cost of survival. And as he explores the limits of a world he no longer recognizes, he will learn that the greatest challenge isn’t fighting the creatures that devastated Earth. In a game where salvation and destruction are just a step apart, Dante will have to decide not only how to fight – but what to fight for. Follow the story of one who had never tasted victory before.

Kai’s life was small—coffee-stained mornings, cracked recipes, and a system in his head that tweaked toasters and dough like it was nothing. Then the sky shattered. Aliens—Skraiths, jagged and brutal—invaded, tearing his city apart with green-glowing weapons and relentless claws. Superhumans rose to fight back, fire and lightning blazing through the chaos, but Kai’s world crumbled with them. Hiding in his apartment, Kai stumbles on blood—human and alien, smeared on his wall after a superhuman battle. His system, once just a tinker’s tool, awakens, offering him a choice: mimic their powers, temporary and wild, through the blood itself. Desperate, he takes it—stealing pyrokinesis, then electrokinesis, then kinetic energy, each power burning through him, fading fast. But it’s not enough. Armed with a humming Skraith weapon and a body tougher from alien blood, Kai joins a ragtag crew of enhanced fighters—Liv, Rylan, Jace, and Tucker—scraping to survive in a warzone where every shadow hides death. As Skraiths swarm and the city burns, Kai’s system pushes him deeper, analyzing, integrating, crafting minor enhancements—durability, strength, sparks of power that could make him a target or a savior. Government factions, rogue scientists, and the aliens themselves start sniffing around, drawn to his strange tech and blood-stolen abilities. By the time Kai crafts his first super-powered enhancement—an artificial strength boost—he’s no longer just a tinkerer. He’s on the edge of something bigger, something dangerous, where blood and sparks could forge a hero—or break him entirely. In a world unraveling, Kai’s fight for survival becomes a desperate race to master his system, outrun the Skraiths, and confront the truth: the power he’s chasing might destroy him—or remake the world.

BY THE EDGE OF THE SPEAR is a saga of Africa, a tale of conflict and love, unbreakable bonds, magic and the wonder of the African experience. It follows the mighty deeds of several heroes and heroines. The story is set 300 hundred years ago in East Africa where three communities are in conflict. The Maarati are pastoralists while the Anyaga are farmers. The two have had an uneasy co-existence with regular feuding for many years. Then enter the third force, the Nkolwane, who are sweeping everything in their path as they expand from the south, using both wizards (called Innaxzi) and warriors.

The Maarati and Anyaga communities ascertain through their seers that there is a community from the south that is destroying all other communities in their path. They decide to unite their forces to combat this common threat. Kiama is one of the few who will have an intimate but painful knowledge of the southern enemy early on. The two communities marshal their might both arcane and force of arms to counter their enemy. We have Muniu and Runo of the Anyaga, mighty warriors with something to prove, and then there’s Lerionka, regiment commander of the Maarati and his beloved and beautiful Ntalei, their love beset by so many obstacles. There is Lengoibon, also regiment commander and a vicious rival of lerionka, there is Mukungu, a crafty, evil and cunning elder of Anyaga. Need I mention Kui, beautiful, proud, and oh so gifted lady of the Anyaga, Uloziba the stunningly beautiful Innaxzzi spy and scout of the Nkolwane, Wangari seer of Anyaga, and Samute the Oloibon of Maarati, each unique and powerful.
