Peacocks Bingley

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.

The Peacock's Lament

"A thousand eye's beseech the heavens, Why must the mortals suffer through the endless cycles of predestined samsara? A million feet have gouged the earth, Why must the resentful souls rest peacefully within the ground?” A desolate shadow desperately grasps the air, Why can the heart bleed without the slightest touch?" Ahantzi "Ahazu/Haz" Sundara Al-Tawas goes through each day as an apathetic dreamer, barely clinging to the lingering vestiges of his current existence, each day another mind-numbing struggle, within a monotonously unchanging world. But one day, a single divergence in his clockwork reality occurs, and his unexpected response to that single moment, leads to a rippling cascade of unpredictable events, and a brand-new world, full of passion, of betrayal, of sorrow, anger, grief, and joy. "Master, this world is not like the old one. This is a reality based on desire and want; brimming with unrepentant lust, and where love and hate are closely entwined. This is a world of fantasy and beasts. This is [Pandemonium]." Follow Haz/Hassan as he is reborn into this world, along with his loyal AI, [MIRROR], and the mysterious spirit, Babel, as they’re swept along in the turbulent tides of his fate, as he struggles to survive, and ultimately, ascend into prominence in this chaotic world. "When entering the cycle of karma, do not falter beneath heaven's eye’s. When entwined within the chains of morality, Punish good, and reward evil.” When confined within the stagnant earth, Shatter the pillars of unyielding change, and set alight the ocean of fiery rebellion."

Pride and Prejudice

Causing immediate excitement among Mrs. Bennet and her five daughters, Mr. Bingley, a wealthy young gentleman, has rented a nearby country estate, Netherfield. He arrives in town accompanied by his fashionable sister and his good friend, Mr. Darcy. While Bingley is well-received in the community, Darcy begins his acquaintance with smug condescension and proud distaste for all the “country” people. Bingley and Jane Bennet begin to grow close despite Mrs. Bennet’s embarrassing interference and the opposition of Bingley’s sister, who considers Jane socially inferior. Elizabeth is stung by Darcy’s haughty rejection of her at a local dance and decides to match his coldness with her own wit. Elizabeth begins a friendship with Mr. Wickham, a militia officer who has a history with Darcy. Wickham claims that Darcy seriously mistreated him. Elizabeth immediately seizes upon this information as another reason to hate Darcy. Ironically, but unbeknownst to her, Darcy finds himself gradually drawn to Elizabeth. Just as Bingley appears to be on the point of proposing marriage to Jane, he moves away from Netherfield, leaving Jane confused and upset. Elizabeth is convinced that Bingley’s sister has conspired with Darcy to separate Jane and Bingley. Mr. Collins, a distant relative of the Bennets, makes an unexpected visit. He is a recently ordained clergyman employed by the wealthy Lady Catherine de Bourgh. On his way to visit his patron, Collins makes a visit, intending to find a wife from among the Bennet sisters. At first, he pursues Jane; however, when Mrs. Bennet mentions she is involved with Mr. Bingley, he turns to Elizabeth. He soon proposes marriage to Elizabeth, who refuses him, much to her mother’s distress. Collins quickly recovers and proposes to Elizabeth’s close friend, Charlotte Lucas, who immediately accepts him. Their marriage takes place soon after. In the spring, Elizabeth joins Charlotte and Mr. Collins at his parish in Kent. The parish is adjacent to Rosings Park, the grand manor of Mr. Darcy’s aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, where Elizabeth is frequently invited. While calling on Lady Catherine, Mr. Darcy encounters Elizabeth. She discovers from Darcy’s cousin that it was he who separated Bingley and Jane, as she suspected. Soon after, Darcy admits his love of Elizabeth and proposes to her. Elizabeth refuses him. When he asks why she should refuse him, she confronts him with his sabotage of Bingley’s relationship with Jane and his history with Wickham. Darcy responds with a long letter justifying his actions. Thus, everything is set up to bring to conclusion the various love affairs—happily, or perhaps unhappily. Whatever the various resolutions, Darcy, Bingley, Jane, Elizabeth, as well as others, will need to overcome their pride and prejudices if they are to find love in the midst of these uncertain and complex relationships.
