You..." you were the cause of my parents' death. My whole family. Annihilated." "You stole their lives, their laughter, their love. You turned my world to ash. And now, "you're paying the price. Every. Single. Ounce. Of. Pain. You. 're going to feel it all, amplified, reflected, until you break."

The story follows four friends, who in an attempt to have a night they would never forget, end up getting exactly what they asked for. The night takes a dark and sinister turn as they stumble upon and war between Angles and Demons. Join them as they fight against the Darkness that threatens to Awaken a catastrophic Evil that was put to rest long ago.

In a world where strength is defined by the beasts you tame, power is everything. Contracts forged with monstrous creatures unlock abilities beyond mortal comprehension, elevating their tamers to the heights of glory. The stronger your beast, the higher you stand. For Auron Raventor, the heir of a prestigious family, it should have been simple. Except, there's one little problem—he’s the sole failure in a lineage of prodigies, completely incapable of forming a single contract. The world calls him talentless, a waste of potential. And frankly, Auron's almost amused by how right they are. Resigned to a life of ridicule, Auron would have happily embraced the peace of obscurity if it meant being left alone. But the universe clearly has other plans. In the darkest moment of his despair, a buried power awakens within him. A power older than the very concept of taming itself. He doesn't form contracts. He devours. Absorbing strength straight from the beasts he defeats, merging their abilities into his own. It’s unnatural. It’s dangerous. And it’s about time he made the world realize they’ve been looking at power all wrong. Armed with abilities that shouldn't exist and a blatant disregard for their rules, Auron’s set to carve his own path. One that doesn’t involve licking the boots of arrogant elites or begging for their approval. Let them scoff. Let them sneer. By the time they realize the true scope of his power, it’ll be far too late. Strength. Survival. Ascendancy. And maybe........ just maybe....if the world’s lucky, Auron might just leave a few pieces behind when he’s done. AUTHOR'S NOTE This ain’t your typical beast-taming novel. You won’t find some wide-eyed farm boy here preaching about friendship while his magical dog does all the work. No. You’re in Primordial Eclipse: Devourer’s Awakening—where the protagonist doesn’t have plot armor, just a system that barely tolerates his existence. Auron ain’t some righteous hero, and he sure as hell isn’t bowing to the Academy’s nonsense. He’s out here breaking bones, dodging beast contracts like they’re tax collectors, and figuring out how to become a one-man extinction event. NOW, BUSINESS. GOLDEN TICKET DEALS 1 Golden Ticket = 1 Bonus Chapter (You pay, I suffer.) 100 Golden Tickets = Auron actually gets a proper meal for once. POWER STONES = FASTER RELEASES Every Power Stone thrown at me shaves off my remaining sanity and forces me to write. More Power Stones = Less Sleep for Me = More Chapters for You. It’s a toxic relationship, and I love it. REVIEWS & COMMENTS = MORE CHAOS This story is filled with: ✓A protagonist who’s more villainous than virtuous. ✓A world where beast tamers reign supreme (and Auron doesn’t give a damn). ✓ Schemes, betrayals, and enough chaos to make your head spin. ✓ Humor—because if you’re not laughing at the absurdity of it all, you’re probably dead. Read at your own risk. I take no responsibility for sleepless nights, sudden addiction, or the deep existential crisis you might have when you realize Auron is, in fact, that guy.

Arlan's gaze darkened with hatred. “If I knew I was betrothed to you, I would have killed myself before you even killed me!” Oriana mirrored the same emotions as him. He pulled out a dagger and offered it to her. “It’s not too late. Just slit your throat with this and you'll bleed out painlessly.” She accepted the knife, her fingers clutching its handle tightly. The next moment, he was pressed against the wall and the knife was on the right side of his neck. “How about I try it on you first, my betrothed?” “Feel free to try. But when you fail, this knife will first taste your grandpa's blood, then yours.” Anger rose in her eyes, and the next moment, blood was flowing through the right side of his neck. She cut deep enough to severe an important blood vessel. “You should not have challenged me,” she sneered and stepped back, waiting for him to collapse. He simply smirked and brushed his finger along the deep wound on his neck. “Seems like you failed.” She watched the wound on his neck heal on its own and felt shocked to her bones. “You.. what are you?” “Guess?” ----- Instagram- mynovel.20 Facebook- Author mynoveltwenty

In the ancient land of Bathalumea, a once-mighty civilization now fractured by time and turmoil, whispers of a forgotten power begin to stir. Haraya, the fabled ability to shape reality itself, was long thought to be a myth, buried alongside the sovereign bloodlines that once wielded it. But Haraya was never truly gone—it only waited.

Haunted by tragedy and driven by the dream of rebuilding what was lost, they find themselves entwined with Haraya’s awakening.

The world-famous hacker, Dexter, is a woman and she is the daughter of one of the most prominent families of aristocrats, going by the name Daisy Chen. Daisy has stayed away from her family, and juggled from one job to another in disguise or while cross-dressing as her alibi 'Dexter'. It never once got her into trouble, not until she chanced upon him. Ryle Harper, the CEO of Harper Societies, manages a multinational company on the surface but danger lurks beneath every façade he presents to the world. Daisy had decided to tread carefully around the man but trouble always comes uninvited. One night. One mistake. A stranger. An unprepared pregnancy. To keep her façade of being a man and not offend the devil, she did what was feasible… She disappeared without a trace. However, two years later, she finds herself facing him again only to realize that the man was, all along trying to track her down. By a twist of fate, she becomes his secretary again but this time, their deal comes with certain conditions and a time limit. But when destiny rolls its dice and Daisy has to assume the position of the head of her family, how would she escape Ryle's clutches again? Would she want to? Or would he let her? ... “Look at me,’’ his eyes darkened as he stepped towards her. With every step he took towards her, Daisy took a step back until her back hit the wall. The curtains swayed in the night wind, the glow of the pale moonlight illuminating the dark room where she could see the danger lurking in those hazel eyes. She averted her gaze. He pinched her chin and turned her face towards him, ‘’Dexter?” his fingers grazed up to her wig, ‘’Or shall I call you Daisy now? Daisy Chen?” he leaned closer to her, whispering next to her lips. Her lips parted but before she could utter a single word, her wig was tugged off. Her long dark hair came cascading down, answering all his unanswered questions. ''Tell me Daisy, or there are more ways I can make you speak,'' his hand reached inside her shirt, his long fingers grazed on the expanse of her delicate, bare skin, ''You believe me, right?" he whispered. She shivered, partly in pleasure and partly in denial of that pleasure that she felt.
