Ghastly Bespoke

*Spawns into existence with an overpowered past* Walks in an elegant and dignified gait, takes a seat on a chair as if he was a sovereign and gazes down at you. "Hello, ladies~" I spoke in an enchanting yet overbearing tone, gazing at the ladies, who were dazed gazing up at me in a near-revering state. "And to you guys too" I mumbled in annoyance as my eyes landed on men. "Hey, can't you just remove men, except for me, from my world?" I asked _Eshwar_. (*_Eshwar_ choks on the drink he was drinking and glances away*) "Tsk, useless!" I cursed at him and glanced away, ignoring his menacing glare, that spoke volumes on his urge to erase me out of existence. "Him and I have spoken and we have come to an agreement on him telling you guys my opus, and heh, I will, of course, be the main focus, so ladies~~ You'll be seeing me soon~" I spoke to the ladies gazing up at me, while I continued to ignore the men in the crowd. Glancing to the side, my eyes fell on the men, who flinched at the ominous foreboding feeling that abruptly chruned their stomach, "You better keep your ladies safe...... since they'll be mine soon~~" I said with a smile that made men shudder while charming the women at the same time. My gaze swept over the crowd beneath, "Since the world I am to transmigrate into is overwhelmingly futuristic, there are many things to adventure about, so we have decided on, not dwelling too much on politics and other shit, but instead focus only on women and me~" I stated with an enchanting grin. *In a distinct chatter* "Oi, tell them the truth!!" _Eshwar_'s voice yelled at, from a distance..... "No wait, isn't he right? But a bit of politics should be good....." _Eshqar_'s mumbled whispers trickled my sensitive ears, but I didn't like the words that left his mouth. "Oi, we discussed not to include politics and shit like tha-" But it was already too late..... _Eshwar_'s pen wielding hand flitted across the plot filled sheets, as a subtle exclamation escaped his mouth, and at that, I could instantly tell that he was up to no good! "Oi-" "With a bit of politics!" He yelled from a distance, as a ghastly silence descended upon me and the crowd gazing up at me, while the men grinned mockingly and women tilted their heads to the side in such cuteness that I almost forgot the plight at hand. Afterall, when I narrated my opus, I stated repeatedly that I don't like politics! "You added politics?" I asked with a forced smile. "Mhm" _Eshwar_ nodded his head innocently. ".....politics?" "Yeah" "Ohyoumotherfu-" *with the distinct sounds of crashes, both of them fled from the scene* -- [AN's Promise] "Well, let's experience as many beautiful love stories as possible~" [A lovely bundle of fluffy love stories] -- AN: I don’t know who the artist of the cover is, but if you want me to remove it.... you can ask me to do so (T-T). Credits to the artist.

Imagine, if you will, the weight of that revelation – a kingdom in ruins echoing in his mind's eye, a legacy of darkness clinging to him like a second skin.

Their unlikely alliance is forged in the crucible of shared danger, a testament to the strange bonds that can bloom in the face of adversity. But the path to reclaiming his throne isn't merely a physical journey; it's a descent into a family history as dark and twisted as any gothic novel.

Unraveling the truth about his ancestors, peeling back layer after layer of deceit and treachery, will be a harrowing experience, testing his very soul. The journey is fraught with peril; loyalty is tested, betrayals sting like scorpion bites, and sacrifices must be made.

"You think I'm obsessed of power?" He took one step forward towards me, my whole system stiffened. My heart drum inside my chest and my breath hitch with excitement and fear. "Seems like it," "There are two things I'm obsessed of," He held me tightly as he wrapped his rough hand around my wrist. I tried to wiggle free against his strong hold. "I... I don't care," my voice came out ghastly. "One," the thickness of his voice laced through my skin. "You are my obsession," "Two..." He slurs. "Pinning you in my bed, chained, and screaming my name from unbearable pleasure until you past out." And his eyes have become so dark, they would be able to swallow me whole. "You're a nutcase," my lips quivered as his fingers trailed against the small part of my neck. "You, in my bed, legs spread wide open...chained and screaming my name until you beg me to stop." His adams apple bobs in his throat as his hand tucks a strand of hair behind my ear. "You like that about me, my unhinged mind and how I f*ck you rough my love, let me remind you of that." My breath deepened and I fought the need to kiss him or lick my lips as an invitation. ************** Shiloh battles against her complicated life everyday.

When futuristic technological advancements nearly brought about the annihilation of mankind, a potent biological weapon was devised by an enigmatic bioterrorist military unit. The superweapon was manufactured with the intent to terminate an individual(s) within the span of a few seconds, but the bioterrorists seemed to have underestimated the adaptability of the human genome. A weapon with the potential to eradicate all of humanity instead served to strengthen it. The properties of the biological weapon were introduced into the genetic codes of many human beings. The majority of humanity was transformed into ghastly genetic aberrations with hideous forms, reduced cognitive functions, and abnormal abilities, hence their name, the Abnormals. The remainder entirely absorbed and acclimated to the properties of the latent superweapon, becoming known as the Evolved. Many unaffected humans, the normies otherwise known as the Inferiors, remained and were dominated by the superior Caste, the Evolved, and their counterpart, the Abnormals. It was the New Order. Marcus discovers his dormant powers and keeps them a secret to avoid the covetous attention of the Higher Caste. Join him as he develops his abilities in the ultimate pursuit to regain his freedom.

She felt energy and warmth spread to her body. She made a sound again before opening her eyes rather woozily. She blinked a few times to clear her vision. She nearly fell her bed at what she saw in front of her eyes. "I did not vant to scare ye", the black cat jumped off the bed and shook its head ruefully as it sat down on its haunches.

It was a special day. The troops from both sides were mobilized. The two most powerful Kingdoms of the continent were finally going to put an end to this centenary war. The echoing sound of the war-horn announced the death of thousands of soldiers. In an instant, the magical artillery of both armies had already etched eternal scars in the Earth that birthed them all. It was that day that everything had ended. An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. The Earth, Mother and Host of all living beings, finally answered the repeated attacks of her offsprings. She released a powerful growl, and a cataclysm ensued, opening the valley in two. Immediately, the mountains collapsed, the sun disappeared and the sky darkened. As if it was announcing the beginning of the end, nature unleashed her wrath on the poor men that inhabited this continent. Hurricanes ravaged the Eastern Lands, tsunamis drowned the Western Lands. Volcanoes exploded under the Southern Lands and eternal blizzards froze the Northern Lands. From its depths, the Earth brought forth ghastly men-hunting primordial creatures. From their nightmares, she gave birth to frightening monsters of the night. The food chain was quickly reversed, and the majority of the human population was eradicated. Indeed, men could no longer pray to their Gods, for even They are unable to invoke her mercy. That day, Mother Earth crushed the reign of the human race. The moment they dared to defy her... Was When Everything Finally Ended.
