Henry Gaunt

AWAKENING - the adventure

Henry Dreherg is a young boy who leaves his mother’s house to pursue what every young boy dreams of, an adventure. AWAKENING – THE ADVENTURE: ACT I – THE AWAKENING BEGINS In a fractured world of empires, awakenings, and beasts, a boy’s quiet life ends the moment fate knocks on his door. Henry Dreherg never asked to become a target. But when a stolen relic of unimaginable power falls into the hands of his friend, the shadows of Transylvanien stir—and a deadly vampire baron named Adelin Dravencourt begins the hunt. Forced to flee, Henry forms a reluctant alliance with his freshly gained friends. Together, they must survive assassins, uncover buried truths, and face monsters both human and inhuman. But the evil Adelin is always one step ahead—and he has no intention of letting them reach the dawn. Old legends awaken. Bonds are forged. Blood is spilled. The first act of destiny has begun. AWAKENING – THE ADVENTURE: ACT II – RISE OF SHADOWS The world is no longer what it once seemed. After the storm of Transylvanien, Henry Dreherg and his companions find themselves hunted, wounded, and changed. But as one darkness fades, a far deeper one begins to rise. From the ruins of the Shadow Society, the elusive Schatten Syndicate emerges. Deadlier. Smarter. And they want blood—especially Emilia’s. Meanwhile, the infamous Soul Reapers—ten legendary warriors who answer to no one—begin to move from the shadows. While training under the silent Master Kensei, Henry must unlock the secrets of his Heavenly Awakening, while Jack faces the wrath of the Stormdragon within. Friendships deepen. Secrets surface. And enemies watch from just beyond the light. In a world where power means survival, the question remains: Who will rise… and who will vanish in the shadows?

The Miss Americana

Liliana “Lily” Elizabeth Armstrong endured a life of abuse and exploitation by her parents, leaving her with a profound lack of self-esteem. On her birthday, a lavish affair was organized to showcase their wealth and social status, with her sister Athanasia being the undisputed star of the evening. To escape the suffocating attention, Lily retreated to the sprawling gardens of their opulent Newport estate. During her solitude, she encountered Duke Henry, a penniless British Duke visiting America specifically to secure a wealthy bride. He was genuinely captivated by Lily’s genuine, unassuming nature and quiet charm, falling for her authentic self rather than the superficial facades of the Gilded Age. However, due to her ambitious parents’ machinations, who were desperate to secure a titled match and believed Athanasia was the more suitable candidate, Lily’s name was mistakenly associated with her sister’s when Henry sent his formal marriage proposal. Tragedy struck when Athanasia went missing and was presumed dead while en route to Henry’s ancestral home in England. As a gesture of familial comfort (and perhaps a desperate attempt to salvage the ducal connection), Lily was sent to Henry to offer solace. It was then that Henry realized the grave mistake with the sisters’ names. He understood he had proposed to the wrong woman, but the true challenge began as Lily, so deeply ingrained with her own worthlessness, simply couldn’t comprehend that he could possibly desire her instead of her “perfect” sister.

THE DAY THE STARS FELL

THE DAY THE STARS FELL A Sci-Fi Webnovel of Forgotten Skies, Fallen Giants, and a Girl Who Shouldn’t Have Survived They say don't look at the stars, they see you. They say when the stars fall, death follows. She was never supposed to survive. She was never supposed to become one of them. In the broken world of tomorrow, humanity lives split: Below, the Lower Sovereign States — pristine, fortified, and indifferent. Above, the United Upper States — scorched, overrun, and forgotten. Earth’s skies no longer bring hope. They bring Killing Stars — cosmic monsters that descend without warning, obliterating entire cities in thirty minutes before vanishing like ghosts. No one has ever survived a direct encounter… until Gekiko Hershoff, a medic’s foster daughter, caught in the middle of a raid. She didn’t choose the soul. She didn’t ask to inherit the Condemner — a sentient killing star’s internal soul, bonded to her in the chaos of a failed military operation. Now, Gekiko is changing — body, mind, and soul — as an alien presence fuses with her being. Hunted by the Lower States, feared by the surface survivors, and stalked by the very stars that seek to reclaim the soul, Gekiko is caught between worlds. Armed with only a half-functioning mech, her makeshift team of rebels, and a soul that was never meant for her, she fights not just for survival — but for the truth. Because the stars aren't falling randomly. Because someone is calling them. And because somewhere, hidden behind memory and betrayal, lies the man who started it all — someone from her past. As the lines blur between monster and girl, machine and soul, and vengeance and hope — Gekiko must decide: Will she fight for the world that left her behind… …or burn it all down with the stars?

Forebearer's Sight: Strangers Among Us

A young British child, Frederick, who was adopted by Portuguese sailors finds himself struggling for survival on the shores of West Africa. He soon discovered that the lands he found himself in were troubled by the aura of ancient cosmic darkness, Okunkun, that instilled hate against the indigenes of Africa in other races as their punishment for banishing it from its reign on the world. The remnants of Okunkun’s minions, Egbe Okunkun, commence a plot to bring back their glory days by attacking the Olodumare Festival, an iconic festival celebrated between the Yorubas, Igbos and Hausa in honour of their historic victory against Okunkun. Yet to recover from the shock of the attack, a mystical war broke out between the deities of Olodumare and the ancient Benin Kingdom when their spy, Warewa, discovered a secret slave trade allegiance between the Benin Kingdom, and Prince Henry the Navigator, son of a Portuguese Monarch, with Egbe Okunkun at the heart of it. Frederick gets caught in an unimaginable battle between the deities of Olodumare who swore to protect their people from Okunkun’s hate, the Benin kingdom, and Egbe Okunkun. Buoyed by their duty to prevent hate from destroying their land, the deities of Olodumare made it their duty to ensure that people from the outside world had no access to their lands. When Frederick’s presence on their land became known to them at the end of the battle, they were torn between letting him live, being a child, and the fear that he would succumb to the hate of Okunkun and be a danger to them all. Frederick builds a bond with the son of a powerful deity, Ifaromi who was convinced of his innocence and will for good. All hell broke loose when the plot of Egbe Okunkun bore fruit and the very darkness they sought to protect themselves against threatened to rise once more with Frederick at the heart of it all.

The Fallen Author’s Heart in the Land of Love

For those of you reading this, I'm a novelist, a writer, call me what you will. I love creating stories, but I've always wondered what would happen if I ever found myself stuck in a world of my own making. To be honest, I usually dislike the romance genre, but right now, I'm writing one of them—or am I? This is a twisted tale of a person who is about to experience unimaginable suffering for the rest of their life. Let's see what it brings to our hearts; it should be interesting. If you have the courage to stick with it until the end, please do. Akira Tsukihara is a struggling romance novelist trapped in a cycle of churning out saccharine, uninspired stories. Her life in a sweltering Japanese apartment is already a constant battle with mediocrity, a struggle compounded by her eerie building security guard and demanding editor. Akira secretly loathes the fluffy, unrealistic tales she churns out, feeling her soul dwindle with every clichéd happy ending she pens. But then, a shockwave hits her stagnant routine. Her latest novel, "The Fallen Kingdom of Seraphis"—a story she finally thought was getting somewhere—suddenly faces a copyright infringement lawsuit. The accusation? It's an blatant copy of an older, popular novel. Her editor, a bumbling, self-absorbed bear of a man, abandons her, leaving Akira to fight an seemingly insurmountable legal team alone. A mixture of anger, disbelief, and a desperate need to prove her innocence compels Akira to reluctantly begin reading the allegedly plagiarized work, "Hearts Bound in Starlight and Ruin." As she delves deeper into its pages, far more sinister events begin to unfold. Strange phenomena plague her apartment, from drastic temperature drops in the middle of summer and inexplicable buffering screens to an unsettling feeling of being watched. Then, a blinding light erupts from her laptop, consuming her whole. Akira awakens in a world reeking of mud, misery, and medieval despair. Her body is no longer her own but that of a gaunt, oddly white-haired young peasant girl. The horrifying reality dawns on her: she hasn't simply been transported to another world; she has been reincarnated into the very story she detested—a world that reflects the harsh realities she unintentionally created. Her forced fantasy has become a terrifying new reality. Can she survive the stark, unromantic world she unconsciously penned? Or is this the ultimate punishment for a writer who loathed her own creations?

Devil King's Host: Celestial Records

Two antagonizing forces in one body? Tsk, tsk what a mess. No, our MC isn't a hybrid but a host. In him, the lost power of a divine being–the celestial eyes, is sealed and unfortunately for him, the king of abyss –sheon, got sealed in him too. Unlike the celestial eyes, Sheon wasn't going to stand still and be a nice obedient prisoner. He was going to get out no matter what it costs. "Listen, kid. Don't think I'm your assistant just because you are my host. I'm one of the strongest and cruelest being. I am the devil king. I'm not going to be your night in shining armor, on the contrary... I wish to get rid of you. In that note, I'll turn everything and everyone against you until you'll have no reason to want to live, then I shall possess my host and accomplish my reign over humanity. Sheon wanted to make sure the human was clear about their relationship. Thinking he scared the kid, Henry's reply surprised him. "You're too loud for a prisoner... You might have been the king in your world, but here, you're locked up in my body–you're my prisoner. A tool for me to use, and with your powers, I'll survive. You want to turn the world against me? Sure go ahead, I'll entertain you as much as you want, but in the process I'll make you a slave that will forever grovel before me. I will conquer every obstacle you set and live the way I want and with my own rules." Henry's confidence surprised Sheon. "Interesting. And how do you think I'll lend you my powers?" "It's in me, I don't need permission to take it. Wait and see, I'll find a way to tame both you and your powers," Henry said with a firm tone. "You thrill me, kid, let me see how you manage to pull that off, entertain me." "Sit back and watch me conquer everything, and in the process, await your turn." A DEAL WITH THE DEVIL, makes me wonder who really is the devil between the two...they say...fear those who don't fear the devil, because he has to be more scarier than the devil. The world against him... let's see how Henry survives; shall we dive into the story then?
