Peacock Skullgirls

Fire & Ecstasy

In the land of Kebakaran, where whispers of dragons and bloodline legends echo through the cobbled streets, Amaris, a lowly slave girl, toils away at the Golden Peacock, a lavish brothel that serves the whims of the powerful. The once-beloved King Jezza has fallen, poisoned under mysterious circumstances, leaving his son, Quellin Vircadian, to ascend the throne amid swirling rumors of cruelty and darkness. While the townspeople grieve for their fallen king, they fear the new ruler, offering tributes—trinkets and girls—to appease Quellin's wrath. Amaris's life takes a perilous turn when she is chosen as a token of fealty, destined to become Quellin's property. As she navigates the treacherous world of the Royal Court and the simmering distrust of the townspeople, she finds herself in a desperate struggle for survival, love, and power. With each passing day, the stakes rise higher; Amaris learns that her very presence may be the key to maintaining the fragile peace between the court and the populace. Haunted by her past and driven by her dreams of freedom, Amaris must confront not only the dark secrets surrounding Quellin's ascent to the throne but also the terrifying legacy of the Vircadian family, said to be descended from dragons. As she unravels the truth behind the king's nature, Amaris finds herself drawn to Quellin, who reveals a side of himself that contradicts the chilling rumors. Their connection ignites a spark of hope within her, but it also complicates her mission to bridge the chasm between the crown and the commoners. As rebellion simmers beneath the surface, Amaris becomes a linchpin in a game of power that threatens to engulf them all. Can she reconcile her feelings for the enigmatic king with her need to protect her people? Will she be the one to rise above the chains of her past and forge a new destiny for herself and her kingdom, or will the darkness that surrounds Quellin consume them both? Fire & Ecstasy is a tale of passion, sacrifice, and the quest for identity in a world rife with betrayal and longing, where the line between love and power blurs, and the echoes of ancient dragons whisper promises of both destruction and rebirth.

Noble Blood, Convict Chains. Based on a true story.

Set against the sweeping backdrop of 19th-century England and Australia, Collin Peacock: Noble Blood, Convict Chains is the compelling story of Collin Peacock, a man born into the shadows of nobility, fighting to carve his place in a world that constantly pushes him aside. Born on December 13, 1805, Collin and his twin sister, Mary, are the illegitimate children of Jane Peacock, a commoner, and Lord Peter Campbell III, a wealthy sugar plantation owner from Jamaica. Though their father acknowledged them in his will, societal norms prevented him from offering more than financial support, leaving them to grow up in the quiet village of Little Fencote, Yorkshire. Despite his noble blood, Collin was a man of modest means, working as a stockman and poultry seller. His strong will and keen intellect, sharpened by an education his mother secured for him, set him apart from others in his village. Life for Collin took a devastating turn in 1836 when he was falsely accused of receiving stolen pigeons, a crime instigated by his father’s family, the Campbells, who had stopped paying the small sum left to Collin and Mary after Lord Peter’s death. The accusation led to his arrest and a harrowing trial at the Old Bailey. Despite his protestations of innocence, Collin was sentenced to seven years of hard labor in Australia, torn away from his wife Ellen and their four daughters. The journey to Australia aboard a prison hulk was nothing short of a nightmare. Collin’s name was misspelled as “Colling Peacock,” an obvious clerical error that became a new identity in his convict records. Yet, even as he faced the brutal conditions of penal life, Collin found ways to maintain his dignity. He used his education to teach other convicts how to read and write, and his skills as a horseman earned him respect among both prisoners and guards. When news of Ellen’s death reached him from England, Collin’s grief was profound, but it also marked the beginning of a new chapter in his life. Upon completing his sentence, Collin married Jane Brennan in Australia, and together they started a family. With his indomitable spirit, Collin seized the opportunities available to him, acquiring land and building an agricultural empire in Laidley, a town that would later become part of Queensland. Collin Peacock: A story of resilience, betrayal, and redemption. It chronicles one man’s journey from the green fields of Yorkshire to the harsh, untamed landscape of Australia. Collin’s life is a testament to the power of perseverance in the face of overwhelming odds, as he rises from the ashes of a fractured family legacy to create a legacy of his own.

Realm of Beasts: My Husband Wants More Babies

After transmigrating to a world of beasts, Ye Zhizhi turned out to be the only woman in a population brimming with handsome men. Forget competing for territory or food—why were they competing for her too? Tiger took the initiative. “Don’t run off. Give me a child and I’ll protect you.” His ears might be fluffy and adorable, but she’s a human, and reproductive isolation meant she couldn’t bear his child even if she broke her hips! Although it was bizarre enough to meet a perverted tiger, it turned out everyone was perverted: foxes, wolves, snakes, and peacocks! This world was so indecent! While the tiger went out to hunt, the fox flashed her a droopy look. “Tiger is lying to you. He just wants to possess you, but I’m different—I’ll pamper you.” Ye Zhizhi shook her head—there’s no way she would trust a fox. The big black wolf licked his long fingers and spoke alluringly, “Us wolves are always monogamous. You’ll be happiest with me.” The white peacock flashed its golden tail feathers and shoved the wolf aside, twerking its butt at Ye Zhizhi, “Loyalty is useless, you oaf—it’s only natural to pick the prettiest partner. Ye Zhizhi: “I’ll never be charmed by beauty!” before she finished, something icy coiled around her legs—unbeknownst to her, the emerald snake had slipped behind her, and things were heating up as his tail slithered over her body… “Stop, stop, stop!” Unable to fight back, Ye Zhizhi had to set ground rules. “Calm down, let’s go one-by-one!” Tiger said, “Why didn’t you call me if you’re doing it in a group?!”

Re: Intertwined Destiny

Bai Shuyin, a young high-schooler turned human vegetable, was transmigrated into a novel she casted aside because of how humdrum the plot was. Waking up as the poor sister who was destined to protect her baby brother villain and die a tragic death really was the cherry on the sundae.  Normally Bai Shuyin would just go along with any role she was given since she hated complicated and troublesome things. "I hope this is worth the trouble," was what she thought to herself.  She decided to go against the plot, perhaps, trying to change her fate as she went. However, she just realized that she had almost no clue about the book at all! What she knew was only the main characters and the villain. Not the major problem, not the climax, she didn't even know what happened at the end of the book.  She thought people who transmigrated would have their own system who would elaborate the background of the book and sell hidden powers with countless missions to complete, yet she had none! She truly was a cannon fodder in this book. Bai Shuyin glanced at the little villain that throtelled after her. Should she ask him? What crisis would he go through in the future? Would he even know anything else besides sticking to her side like a glue? The title of this novel was called "The Crown Prince and The Devious Tyrant King". This little boy was nothing but a cute little pie. What caused him to blacken? However, in the unexpected chaos, love came hitting her out of nowhere. She was faced with a love interest in the form of a flamboyant red peacock, whom she found herself falling for.  The wind blew gently against the red crimson hair, those indigo eyes burned into her own. With one knee on the ground; a gesture that shouldn't be done by a crown prince, and a hand stretched out towards her, he said, "Are you willing to rule over the world, side by side, with me as your companion?” This story is just about a dumb MC trying to survive in the world that ask too much of what her braincells could comprehend. *The cover is commissioned art, all rights belong to me and the artist, Laylee.

He asked. " Twilight," she said. " What?" He asked with shock. " My classmate said it is a very good movie and one has to watch it with their boyfriend. Till now, I have no boyfriend so  I didn't watch it. I always watch cartoons at my home. Please….play that movie. I want to see what the interesting things are in it" she said innocently. She dragged him onto his bed and leaned on the bedpost. It was very awkward for him to talk with her.  Suddenly she took the remote from his hand and started playing the movie on television. He sat quietly without talking to her.  She leaned on his shoulder intertwining her fingers with his. She was watching the movie without blinking her eyes whereas he was cursing himself to bring her to his home. His body became so hot with her closeness and even his situation became worse when there are the most intimate scenes in the movie.  He gulped his throat and tried to remove his hand from her grip.  " Stay with me. My friend told me to see with my boyfriend" she stopped him pulling towards her. He lost his balance due to the sudden act and fell on her. That was the last string of his control.  " You are looking so handsome that the main lead" Amrutha complimented him. " Really…?" He questioned with a smile. " You look more handsome when you smile. Do you know it?" She said. " Thank you…" he said with a wide smile. " What about me? Am I beautiful?" She questioned. " You are so beautiful, just like a fairy," he said cupping her face. " Thank you…." She kissed his cheeks. He looked at their position and tried to stand properly. Before that, she kept her hands around his neck. His eyes roamed towards her face to her neck then down to the low neck of her dress.  He was mesmerized by her beauty.  He lost his sanity thereafter and started sucking her lips fervently. She pulled him closer to him experiencing the new feelings in her body as she was not in her right senses. Without breaking their kiss his hands were roaming on her all-body curves. She moaned his name enjoying the pleasure of his touch. Dhruv got his sense back when he heard her husky voice and stood up from the bed. He felt ashamed of himself for betraying his best friend and crossing his limit with his sister.  He was scared that if Arvind came to know the truth, he might lose his friendship. Instantly he moved away from her. *†****************************"*"** To know why Dhruv and Amrutha separate read this story? Will they fight their fate and become together? let's see who wins love or fate????
