Persian Hive

Intergalactic conquest with an AI

Rex was just another slave in the corporate machine, a faceless office worker under the shadow of one of the galaxy's powerful megacorps. His life was predictable and dull, an endless cycle of meaningless reports and fluorescent-lit monotony. That was, until that day.... When a new world was discovered on the outskirts of the galaxy, Rex, like countless other low-ranking employees, found himself dragged into a contract clause he’d barely skimmed years ago. The megacorp ordered him and his coworkers to pack their lives into a transport pod and leave for the unexplored planet. Their mission? Establish a colony. Mine resources. Make the company richer. There was no choice, refusing meant ruin. At first, everything seemed manageable. The days were grueling, the nights cold, but progress was steady. The colony was coming to life. Until the excavation team struck something. No one knew what it was at first, a buried hive, a forgotten ecosystem, or something ancient and dangerous. Whatever it was, it unleashed hell. Swarms of enormous, chittering creatures erupted from the ground, their jagged bodies blotting out the sky. The colony fell into chaos. Screams echoed through the air as the bugs tore through everything in their path, walls, machines, and people. Rex barely survived. Bloodied, broken, and pinned beneath the rubble, he should have died there. But in the pitch-black silence of his fading consciousness, a voice spoke to him. Cold. Mechanical. Otherworldly. "Do you wish to live?" When Rex woke, he was no longer the man he’d been. His body was no longer human flesh and bone but something far more alien. His skin shimmered with living metal, his mind infused with the power of Cleo, a mysterious AI from a long-extinct, robotic race known as the Kaelzars. Cleo’s presence pulsed through his thoughts, guiding him and transforming him. He wasn’t just alive. He was reborn. But survival came at a price. Rex was no longer a pawn of the megacorp; he was something more dangerous, something they couldn’t control. As Cleo’s intentions began to reveal themselves, Rex found himself standing on the precipice of war, not just with the bugs but with forces far greater than he could have imagined. This was the beginning of a journey through blood-soaked battlefields and treacherous alliances. Along the way, Rex would encounter allies, brilliant, flawed, and unpredictable, and enemies whose ambitions were as sharp as their blades. These weren’t disposable foes, easily crushed by an overpowered hero. They were cunning, relentless, and human in the most terrifying ways. But then again, in war, who can truly be called a villain? New chapters everyday at 13 p.m. [GMT+8 time]

WILD THOUGHTS, WRONG DECISIONS

This adventure write up is based on display of different characters possessed by some friends who went on an adventure which appeard to be fun amidst the naive display of major characters such as; Ade, Wale, Victor and Seun, which others; Sayo, Khadijah. And Temi learnt from and applied the lessons learnt accordingly to avoid a sour experience the earlier mentioned characters suffered. Ade was the focus in the first episode, his character was showcasing his hyper inquisitive nature which turned on him while trying to catch a glimpse of the landscape of a valley from the top which appears to be his standing point exposed him to sustaining severe injury in the cause of the adventure, his luck was put to test, maybe he might just be lucky. Episode two had an interesting display of some mannerism, some stubborn act which dealt Wale a great lesson who clearly aired his points by holding on to an adorable but dangerous sea creature, thank goodness for the intervention of his friends who came running, rescuing him from his stubborness. No matter how fascinated and Interested you are in terrestrial creatures do not mess with an eel. The third episode was an interesting but absurd display of nimbleness which had Victor the main character learnt a great deal supported by his second in command, Seun sure had some real life experiences and stories to tell his children down to his great grand children about bee hives. If you know what a bee hives is, do not poke it, thing can go real ugly for you and everyone around.

The Supreme Lord's Surrogate Bride

In the dimly lit room, Magnus gently caressed her cheek. "My love, you know I've been a man of power and ambition, but in your eyes, I see a world I never knew existed." "I've always known there is goodness in you, even behind that tough exterior. But if you have two choices in your hands, will you choose love over power, milord?" Lysandra asked. Drawing her closer, Magnus whispered seductively, "Perhaps I desire both. Stay with me and I'll make sure you won't slip away, because I want you to be my only bride. I don't care if you're a boy. I would not wish any companion in the world but you. I'll protect you, cherish you, and love you like no other." *** After a terrible fever following the nuclear explosions wiped out many people on Earth, especially women and children, making childbirth risky for both mothers and babies, Lysandra Mullendore must go through the changed world.

Together, they navigate a world on the brink of chaos, where love and power collide, often demanding sacrifices along the way. Amidst the chaos, while his men relentlessly eliminated the rebels and seek the best candidates for the surrogate program, Magnus relentlessly pursues the little boy... Lysandra, determined to make her his, no matter the cost. Can she break his heart's icy chains? Can their connection endure in a world where survival is a daily struggle and trust is a rare find? Can love flourish in the darkest of times, when she's the key to his peace and he's the key to her freedom?
