Why Did Barristan Selmy Betray Ned

~MATURE CONTENT~ Why Fate is a fantasy romance that takes place in the beautiful city Brasov, Romania. A city and country already shrouded in myths and legends about the supernatural. Stories of vampires and werewolves began here and I wanted to bring my own version of the supernatural realm to tell a story of my own. Nemia Bohdan is a 28 year old hybrid, or so she thinks. However as she digs up her past, and all the pain it comes with, she'll find nothing short of a heart stopping, mind numbing truth. Dorian Volkov is the Lycan King of the supernaturals in Romania and well respected throughout the entire world of supernaturals. He is generally kind hearted and beloved, but when he meets the most confrontational, and mouthwatering, woman at the first mandatory meeting of the decade... Everything changed. She finds out what she really is and he finds his long sought out for mate. Will Nemia be able to come to terms with who she is and who Dorian wants her to be? Will Dorian be able to get Nemia to accept the mate bond and make her see the great things she is destined for? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ALSO! This is my first time ever writing a novel and actually attempting to publish one in any way. I would absolutely love to hear feedback from any and every one of you that stumbles across this. Advice is also always welcome as well! I do so hope y'all enjoy!

"Sarah, I promise to help you rise again, to bring back the light to your career and take down whoever shall stand in your way, but in exchange, be my wife" Mason whispered. "I... I appreciate your offer, Mason, but a contract marriage? Can we really keep it a secret?" Sarah returned reluctantly. In the aftermath of a heart-wrenching betrayal, Sarah Chen, the esteemed songstress of Wuhan, crosses paths with the Mason Liu. Heir to Asia's most influential dynasty, Mason, with promises of restoration and secrets, proposes a contract marriage to Sarah in exchange of helping her bounce back to her position as number one of Wuhan. As she hesitantly agrees, will Sarah find not only a path back to stardom but also an unexpected journey of love and self-discovery in Mason's perfect world?

They burned my mother at the stake for wanting freedom. Thirteen years later, I’ll burn their empire to the ocean floor. * Salvator was just a boy when the Empirium burned his mother alive, guilty of the greatest crime: wanting her people free. Thirteen years later, he fights not with swords, but with fire—the living fire of the Titan Hearts, ancient powers born from the ocean depths of his enslaved planet. In the Titan Games, victory grants freedom. Failure means death. Salvator is willing to risk everything to win—his life, his crew, even his soul. But the deeper he dives into the politics of rebellion, monstrous sea creatures, and the twisted truth behind the Titan Hearts, the more he realizes: Some chains aren’t broken with power. They’re broken with sacrifice. A sci-fi fantasy saga of freedom, fire, and betrayal beneath the waves.

At the risk of the reigning hell, Dean chooses to enter the trials to gain strength and receive powers to destroy the ever living eternity that haunts the living and the dead.

A Tall Tale I wrote for an English assignment in third grade (I think?). Not my best work but I still like the concept; so I have now very lightly edited it to be, at minimum, readable.

She gave him her heart, her trust, and her soul—only to be cast aside when she needed him most. Jennifer had known Maxwell all her life, from the cold walls of Hope’s Orphanage to the fire of first love. He was her protector, her safe place, and eventually, the man she believed would be her forever. But just a week before their wedding, betrayal tore their world apart. Maxwell, now a powerful and feared mafia king, abandoned her without a second thought. He left Jennifer broken, alone, and carrying more than just the scars he left behind. Standing on the edge of despair, she found a new reason to live. Then she vanished into the shadows. Seven years later, she returns to the city that once crushed her. She is no longer the sweet, trusting girl Maxwell once knew. Jennifer is colder now, stronger—and she is not alone. Beside her stands a little boy who bears an uncanny resemblance to the man she swore never to forgive. Maxwell, ruler of Pearl City and the shadow empire of Country Z, lives with one regret that stains his legacy: letting Jennifer go. Now that fate has brought her back, he’s determined to win her heart again. But the woman before him is no longer the girl he lost. She is a stranger shaped by secrets, pain, and time. Love, power, and buried truths collide in this gripping tale of second chances. But when everything looks familiar, not everything is as it seems.

Lance Mercer's life is painfully normal. He works IT support in a basement office where printers scream, coworkers cry over Bluetooth, and lunch is a rotating tragedy of lukewarm noodles and existential dread. He's got a dog named Dario, a cursed coffee addiction, and a daily goal of making it to 5:01 PM without committing a felony. Then he buys milk. Now he's being hunted by unmarked helicopters, cultists in cow masks, and possibly the U.S. government. Reality keeps glitching when he sneezes, his dog might be telepathic, and there's a chance he's bonded with an ancient cosmic dairy god. He just wanted cereal.

… “Is something wrong?” He sighed. He stayed quiet for a few seconds before he spoke. “I don’t think we should continue this partnership.” His tone sent chills down my spine.  “What do you mean?” I questioned. “Your feelings,” he said ‘feelings’ like the word disgusted him, “have changed and it no longer aligns with the agenda.” “How dare you? Who gave you information that helped get your company back from the Gulfs? Who was it that kept feeding you information about the Gulfs businesses. It was me.” I yelled, my tone no longer friendly.  I’d met Gabriel when he had recently lost his company to Christian. He was at the brink of bankruptcy and Christian had made him an offer he couldn’t refuse. He’d been stupid enough to sign a contract without reading it because he was desperate, and ended up losing more than they’d originally agreed. “Now that you have your precious company back and some shares in the Gulf enterprise you think you can dump me with a stupid excuse like our motives no longer align? Don’t you fucking dare. I own you.” I shook with rage, ending the call before he had a chance to reply to me. My rage immediately became fear when I turned around and saw Christian standing by the door in my room. “So you did take me up on my offer.” He was smiling, and the contrast in his words and demeanor only made me more afraid. 

“They didn’t just destroy my family… they tried to erase our name from the world itself. But blood remembers. And so will they.” Left for dead in the desolate wastes known as the Dusk Barrens, Aeron Draxel, the last surviving heir of a fallen noble bloodline, awakens inside a long-forgotten ruin. There, hidden beneath stone and silence, he discovers a sealed Spatial Kingdom, filled with ancient knowledge and the cultivation legacies of a forgotten God-tier expert. In a world where strength defines destiny, and betrayal flows deeper than loyalty, Aeron begins his journey from zero cultivation to building a mighty empire, crushing sects, outsmarting kingdoms, and awakening powers no one dared to touch. His goal is not just revenge. He will reshape the world that cast him aside. He will raise a kingdom from ash, forge legions from loyalty, and rise beyond the heavens—all with nothing but his broken body, a forbidden legacy, and a mind sharpened by hatred. Let the world learn: The strongest cultivator isn’t always born… sometimes, he’s made in blood.

Van and his friend Magus had reincarnated in another world with magic. Tasked to kill the demon lord, they set forth. Van was granted very rough skills that made life for him in that world a living hell, yet he muscled through. Magus however, was bestowed with unfair skills. Due to some of said skills, he gained a harem, which in time, included the girlfriend Van made in the world. After beating the Demon Lord, and after finding out his girlfriend had been stolen from him, he got very upset and so he went to propose to... The Demon Lord...!?

Fame, Power, Money... All were worldly desires that couldn't make Mason Goldenheart, the strongest Hero under God, blink. After fighting in the tumultuous Holy War against the Devil and Demon King for half a century, Mason, with the sacrifice of those he held dear, was finally able to vanquish his foes and bring about an end to the Holy War. With the Demon King's fall came the Devil's end, as God, the great Creator and Saviour of humanity, put the treacherous abomination to rest, and ushered in 100 years of respite. Yet, despite this, all was for nought in Mason’s eyes. As decades passed, an incessantly seeping regret continued to poison his heart. The regret of not being strong enough. Not only had he failed to save his loved ones, but he'd also fruitlessly fought, and tried, and struggled to save the now billions of lost lives across the ravaged Earth. And so, at the turn of the century, long after the Devil and his Demon King's defeat, Mason, whose heart had grown as sullen as rock, confronted God with one simple plea. And it was on that fateful day that he would finally know the truth, a hidden ploy of two men which changed the fates of countless lives. A truth which would forever alter his own fate, pushing him along a path of vengeance and struggles across a cosmos much grander than once thought.
