Southwind Knows My Mood

For five years, Kian tried to beat End Realms: Arcadia — a brutal fantasy game no one ever cleared. He knew every quest, every secret, every ending. And yet, after countless failures, he died… with only one regret. Then he woke up — not as a hero, but as Luca Valentine, a useless extra doomed to die in Chapter 3. Now, on his 1,432nd try, he can’t afford to die. But Luca knows the world inside out. He thought he knew the story. But the story may know him better.

A cursed CD game falls from the sky. I boot it up, build a ridiculously handsome villain with broken talents, and just as I hit “Start”—boom, I get electrocuted. Now I’ve reincarnated as Lucien Caelum Valebrandt, a six-year-old noble and the infamous villain who helped the Abyssians win the last war. Every 500 years, the Abyssian King is reborn. But when the 16 chosen heroes of this generation lost against the battle of the Abyssian King because of my character, the Goddess panicked—and rewound time. Now those same heroes remember everything… and they want me dead. Even though I just got here. All I wanted was to play a game. Now I’m the villain blamed for destroying the world.

The Triple R Ranch welcomed home Wyatt Ray, son of Colt and Hedli, a man weathered by service but still holding the steady gaze of his rodeo-legend parents. Fresh back from another long military deployment, the quiet of the ranch felt both familiar and strangely new. His cousin, Logan, had just headed off to college with his fiancée, leaving a different kind of void. At twenty-five, Wyatt found himself drawn to the thunder of hooves, to the scent of dust and leather. The rodeo circuit, the world his parents had conquered, called to him now with a renewed purpose. He was thinking of finally stepping into the arena himself, not just as a spectator, but as a competitor, ready to forge his own legacy. Meanwhile, the rodeo circuit was home to Cassidy Smith, daughter of Nathaniel and Izzy Smith. She'd practically been born in the grandstands and raised in the livestock pens, knowing the circuit like the back of her hand. For Cassidy, the rodeo wasn't just a sport; it was a way of life, a demanding mistress that required constant dedication. She knew the drill for earning money, from the painstaking travel with her horses to ensuring their peak health and taking meticulous care of herself. She was a formidable competitor, excelling in roping, barrel racing, and the raw courage of bareback bronc riding. Then, a new rider appeared, a retired military officer whose style in the arena stirred something deep within her, reminding her of a legend she'd only ever heard tales about: Colt Ray. How do Wyatt and Cassidy first encounter each other on the rodeo circuit? Is it a chance meeting, a competitive clash, or perhaps a moment where their shared passion brings them together?

A New Perspective on the Story of the Underworld

In a world where fallen empires are forgotten and nobility is washed away by blood and time, a lone child wanders the ruins of a forgotten place. Elliot Blackthorn is only five years old — too young to carry grief, yet old enough to understand loss. Beneath a sky full of stars, he clings to a memory, the voice of his mother and the warmth of her words, echoing in the silence. But the night brings more than comfort. It brings death.

Everything you need to know

Lost Echoes: A Past That Won’t Stay Buried... I wasn’t always this cold... Once,, I smiled more often,, laughed at little things,, and believed in forever... But that version of me was buried beneath the ruins of a past , I never truly recovered from. Now,, I am Rimi—the CEO of Mirain Company,, the number one cosmetics brand in the country... To the world,, I am composed,, elegant, and ruthlessly efficient... People see me as cold, unapproachable. A queen encased in ice... But behind that polished mask,, there's a side only one person ever got to see—a side that giggles,, pouts,, clings,, and melts like a kitten seeking warmth. That side was for him... Kai... He was my best friend., My confidant.. The boy who used to tease me with that crooked smile and hold my hand when I cried... We were young,, maybe too young to understand the depth of what we felt,, but it was real... I loved him—I loved Kai with all the pieces of my innocent heart,. And maybe... just maybe, he loved me too... But we were cowards, both of us. We never spoke our truth,, never crossed that fragile line between friendship and something more... And then—everything shattered... The night my world fell apart,, I lost everything. My parents died in a brutal accident,, leaving behind nothing but silence and ashes... I waited for Kai... I waited for him to show up, to hold me and promise it would be okay. But he never came. No calls. No letters. No goodbye... He vanished.,, Just like that, the boy I loved disappeared,,. I was sixteen , hollow and numb,, drowning in grief and abandonment. But fate didn’t completely abandon me. A kind family—old friends of my parents—took me in. They gave me a home, love,, and warmth I never thought I’d feel again. They never treated me like a burden... They loved me like their own, and I promised myself I'd make them proud... So,, I rebuilt myself from the ashes... I buried my pain, my past, and the girl I used to be. I studied hard,, graduated with honors,, and took over my father’s legacy—Mirain Company... Under my leadership,, we soared to new heights,, becoming the top cosmetics brand in the country... I had everything—power, respect,, success. But love?? I stopped believing in it. Until he walked in... It was at my best friend’s wedding,, a day filled with laughter, champagne,, and memories. And there he was,, standing across the ballroom—sharp suit,, intense gaze,, and a presence that made my heart forget how to beat. For a split second,, I thought it was Kai. My breath hitched... My world tilted. My past clawed its way back to the surface... But his name was Adrian... Adrian Knight—the CEO of Queen Company,, our fiercest rival. The second most successful cosmetics brand,, always trying to outshine us. We were competitors. Enemies,, even. But none of that mattered when our eyes met. He looked at me like he knew me... Like he saw through the layers I had so carefully built over the years., And I hated that. I hated how my heart stuttered. I hated how my legs wanted to walk toward him... I hated that he looked so much like Kai,, and yet was nothing like him... Adrian was confident,, charismatic,, with a gaze that seemed to strip me bare... And I… I was supposed to be the composed one... The ice queen. But around him,, I couldn’t hold that façade. He made the forgotten girl inside me stir again—the one who wanted to be held,, loved,, cherished... I told myself it was just resemblance... Just a cruel trick of fate. But my heart didn’t listen... Maybe I was falling... Falling for a man who looked like my past,, but felt like my future... And it scared me... Because if Adrian was a second chance... was I brave enough to take it??? Or would he leave me broken,, just like Kai once did??? I didn’t have answers. Only questions,, memories, and a heart that refused to stay silent anymore... And deep down,, beneath the frost,, I could feel the warmth return. Maybe... just maybe,, this was the beginning of

“Tempted by the demoness” was just another romance cultivation novel. Ming Shan, the female lead, was a nice and innocent girl with a tragic backstory, a demon raised in a righteous sect, facing the world’s cruelty and abandoned by birth, she would go on many adventures to cultivate the dao with the two male leads, each competing for her love. But no hero lacks their villain. Yue Fang, the villainess of the story, would do everything in her power to make the protagonist miserable and steal her man, just to die tragically in the middle of the book, not even worth two lines to describe her final moments. There was no way that girl could have avoided her fate. However, what if one were to be transmigrated as Yue Fang? Knowing the contents of the novel, one might not face much difficulty. But what if that person was a foreigner that never read the book or even knew what Xianxia is? They needed to be the most unlucky human alive. Luckily, Camila would never have to worry about that.

This is my story(more like my journal) of falling in love with a girl who would never even know I love her. This is not a fiction, it is based on real life (my life). The cover image is AI-generated, though she kinda looks like this, no pink eyes.

There are visual images hidden in the comments, don't miss them! __________________________________________________ I have died more than once. In the square. The executioner was trembling, but his strike was steady. I looked into my king’s eyes, and he did not look away. He didn’t even flinch when my spine cracked beneath the blade. In the court hall. I was accused of treason, of betrayal, of heresy. They tied me to the stake, doused me in oil, and set me on fire. I screamed, not from pain, but from humiliation. He stood in the crowd. And again, he didn’t stop it. Didn’t turn away. He simply… let me burn. I died in a silent room, with my hands over my belly. My child didn’t breathe. No healer, no prayer, no tears could save him. When he entered the chamber, it was already too late. He came to the bed. Sat beside me. Said nothing. Just held my hand until I stopped breathing. Each time, I woke again. Once more, in this cold body. In this stone bed. In this castle, where it still smells of his wine, his ink, his power. But I am no longer the same. I do not forgive. I do not forget. I am the queen whose blood was spilled by the king’s command. And whose smile is now colder than his sword.

However, he was also born sociopathic, unable to understand the feelings of others. As this aspect of his personality continues to develop, his entire hometown will become a bloodbath upon his return, accompanied by his maid-slave. The ruthless prince came to terror in his hometown, he did whatever he wanted—Raping and killing without remorse, As this conflict erupted in his hometown, he immediately went to his house, where he found the head of his younger brother on the doorstep. He remained emotionless amidst the chaos. Entering his parents' bedroom, he saw his mother dead in his parents' own bedroom. Upon entering his older sister's room, he foresaw her being rape by none other than the prince himself in front of the rest of his family as tears drop in her eyes. His younger sister, lying in bed, watched in despair and pity as Satra, the ruthless prince, acted. His father, the butler, and Clementine's mother tried to save his father's daughter by fighting the golden knight protecting Satra. When they finally escaped, his younger sister and his slave were left traumatized. As they ventured out to seek revenge, Xialdre continued pursuing his true goal: finding Adonai. Along the way, they gained more comrades who would try their best to make Xialdre feel emotion for the first time. After the sudden genocide devastates his hometown, Xialdre shows no remorse as he departs, viewing everyone as mere tools, including his former compatriots. His journey sees him gradually enslaving others, testing their loyalty to him. As Xialdre ventures from country to country, his notoriety grows, marking him as the primary adversary across the entire Satalias Continent. Despite his cold demeanor, he begins to find a semblance of peace, though his icy nature remains unchanged from his previous life. Some allies abandon Xialdre, while those who stay gain the power to challenge even a demon lord. Those who left remain weaker in comparison, having forsaken their bond with him. Though his loyal allies may become his wives, Xialdre refuses to coerce their loyalty; he seeks true devotion without manipulation a second time. "I won't force loyalty. If they can't choose it willingly, they're not worthy," asserts Xialdre, maintaining his calm demeanor. As his journey continues, Xialdre gradually rediscovers emotions, yet his cold, sociopathic mindset persists from his former life. "Despite my desires, I used manipulation to make them mine. But if they choose to leave, I'll let them go," he remarks coldly. Those who remain as his allies do so willingly, finding fulfillment in obeying Xialdre's commands, seeing him as their master forever. "But still, Why not use manipulation if its easier than actually winning their heart manually" Xialdre questioned. Xialdre is a reincarnation of cosmic expansion, an AΩ. He seeks revenge on the Daemon Sultan, also known as Lord God Azathoth, after losing to him alongside Elohim Adonai, another AΩ. Xialdre's life and power will only return after the rest of his shattered existence fades away. In this current life, his seventeenth, he must wait until the rest of his lives die so he can return as the AΩ he knows he is. =============================== For more just read it, since If I continue it will only be spoilers, since this sypnosis is literally a spoiler itself.

A book of poems that I made for fun. Each poem is different so if you dislike one then just know there are many different types. The newest poems are better then the older poems.

Ten thousand years ago, the sky shattered, the earth bled, and reality screamed. Gods and awakeners clashed against horrors that should not exist......things that twisted minds, devoured souls, and laughed at the concept of death. The world did not win. It survived. The Veil Barrier was forged, sealing away the nightmares at an unfathomable cost. Time passed. The world forgot. But the barrier is rotting. Cracks spread. Whispers crawl. Monsters pour through, dragging something far worse behind them. And in the midst of it all, something else stirs. Not a hero. Not a villain. Not a god. A being that should not exist. One even the horrors feared. The world thinks it won the war. It was wrong.

Sage has always been a little disconnected. Not by distance exactly, but still showing up to group dinners, responding in the group chat, still laughing at all the same jokes. But different. Calmer. Quiter. Harder to read. While his three closest friends threw themselves headfirst into campus life, parties, hookups, messes, and all, Sage stayed focused. A double major in Astrophysics and Theology, with a quiet love for drawing tucked into a minor. He watches, listens, sketches, and sometimes… knows things. Things he can’t always explain. The summer before senior year feels different. His friends are all falling—hard—for people they didn’t expect. Connections are forming faster than ever. And for the first time, Sage is the only one left standing alone. Not that he minds. He tells himself it’s safer this way. Love is unpredictable. Dangerous. And he’s seen enough in dreams and gut feelings to know some stories aren’t meant to last. Then there's Luca. The charming disaster. The reckless flirt. The friend who never took anything seriously—especially not love. The one everyone thought would be the last to fall. But Luca’s gaze lingers longer now. His teasing has changed. And when he starts showing up for Sage in ways that feel too careful, too real… it gets harder for Sage to keep pretending he hasn’t seen this coming. This is The last to know by yours truly.
