Jun Seventeen Birthday

Ten years ago, mana descended upon Earth in the form of Gates that opened into other worlds. These Gates contained Magical Beasts of unfathomable strength and power that preyed upon humans and sought the destruction of everything around them. But along with the Gates, humans gained the power of Gifts—super abilities that allowed them to fight back against the monsters and take back their world. Now, the Superhumans with Gifts are tasked with defending the people and ensuring that the Gates, which open all over the world, do not bring about the end of them all. ... Jason Marc was just your regular seventeen-year-old high school student whose father abandoned him ten years ago. He worked two part-time jobs while also helping his mom with her diner to aid with the finances, but he could have never guessed that his entire world would change on the eve of his eighteenth birthday. Now, with more power than any one man should possess and an army at his beck and call, Jason works toward protecting those close to him while finding out the truth behind the emergence of the Gates—and preventing the end of the world.

Ten years ago, the world was torn apart when Hell’s Gates opened, unleashing monstrous creatures and plunging humanity into chaos. For two long years, people suffered—until the arrival of Hunters, humans chosen and empowered by celestial beings. Seo-Jun Park, a former writer turned hunter, rejects the gods’ offer of power and becomes marked as crestless, shunned by both divine and mortal alike. After dying in a brutal raid and being abandoned, he awakens in a mysterious realm, where a cloaked figure offers him a forbidden gift: the ability to see and rewrite fate itself. Now wielding a dangerous power that lets him glimpse and alter fate itself, Seo-Jun walks a perilous line between life and death. Defying the gods’ will, he risks everything to change the course of destiny—but the price of rewriting fate may be more than he’s prepared to pay.

But the world of idols isn’t easy—and falling in love with one might just be the hardest lesson of all. A fanfic filled with slow-burn romance, emotional bonds, healing moments, and the power of believing in yourself when your heart whispers, “This is real.”

When Gu Jun was twelve, he inscribed an ancient epitaph on a forgotten gravestone atop Temple Hill — in a language no one on Earth should know. Now eighteen, Gu Jun is preparing to begin his university life in Tianhai. To everyone around him, he’s just a quiet, unremarkable student. But beneath that façade lies a cosmic legacy — the inheritance of Emperor Qin, the last sovereign of our Universe, the Wild Universe. Earth, long sealed from the higher realms, is no longer safe. Ancient enemies stir beyond the veil of stars. Forbidden truths bleed into the world of mortals. The coming war won't just be fought with armies — it will be waged in silence, in shadows, and in secret. To protect Earth and the Universe, Gu Jun must build what the world must never know: a hidden empire. Trained in cultivation. Forged in secrecy. Bound by destiny. And as the final battle looms, warriors must rise from the dark — or all of creation may fall. Author's Note: I’ve been a long-time fan of legendary writers like Er Gen, I Eat Tomatoes, and Mao Ni—their stories have inspired me for over a decade. In my own writing, I aim to follow in their footsteps. Don’t expect the protagonist to slaughter rivers of enemies in the first chapter. This isn’t a story built on cheap thrills. Instead, I focus on building a solid foundation—establishing the world, characters, and deeper plots. Once that’s in place, expect action, intrigue, betrayal, and tragedy to unfold. This is my first novel, and I’m still learning, especially when it comes to character dialogue—but I’m improving with every chapter. If you enjoy medium-paced stories with long-term scheming and a bigger picture, I invite you to follow this journey. Happy reading, and thank you for your support!

[It’s the same novel I'm currently working on, but it’s focused on male audience.] Shinji Kobayashi lived and died as a perverted otaku—alone, broke, and mid-“activity” while watching a gender-bending hentai. When he awakens in a strange, elegant room, he’s no longer a man. He’s Lilith Elric—seventeen, beautiful, and just a few days away from her 18th birthday… the day she becomes a Tribute. In a world where women are sacred and rare, born only through natural childbirth, Lilith finds herself as a living treasure. Men are artificially created, raised without mothers, and taught to worship women. A woman’s adulthood marks her entry into a life of reverence, desire… and expectation. To the world, Lilith is a divine blessing. To herself, she’s still Shinji—awkward, horny, confused—and now trapped in a society that treats her like a goddess and a prize. With only fragments of the girl’s memories, no system yet to aid her, and mounting pressure to “serve” society, Lilith must navigate lust, politics, and power. But deep within her lies something no one expects—a destiny that could unravel the very balance of this female-starved world. Is she just another sacred offering… Or will she rewrite what it means to be divine? Recommended readers: 18+

Throughout history, Humans have strived for greatness, not only in name but in deeds as well, and many failed to achieve it.  It was no different in a Land of Dragons, Mythical beings, Knights, Mages, Demi-humans, and demonic beings. But their greatness came in a different form, a concept known as POWER.  The power to conquer, to build, to control, to protect, and to love.  Raffaelo Jun was a man born with a silver spoon, yet his sheltered upbringing prevented him from becoming the man he was meant to be.  He was unable to achieve the greatness of the prestigious family of the Jun household and became a sight of ridicule.  He was used for a while until he wasn't, then discarded and killed for being a threat to the throne, but Fate had other plans.  Reborn as a child, he starts over as the sole son of the Jun household, his actions brimming with intent.  He had one goal: attain the power that he once ignored and stand on the precipice of human existence, to protect all that are dear to him.  Note: It starts slowly until recent chapters. Interesting side characters, power systems, techniques, and a mixture of variety with the right blend.

Selene was the daughter of the cruel Alpha who ruled Moonveil through fear. Years ago, he wiped out an entire pack just to rise to power. But he made one mistake...he left behind four orphaned boys. Those boys returned as Alphas. They are stronger, colder and out for revenge. They took everything...his land, his title, and finally... his life. Selene was only seventeen at the time. She had no idea what her father had done. But that didn’t matter. To them, she was guilty by blood. They didn’t kill her. No. They did something worse. They marked her as a slave. In their world, even omegas had rights. Slaves had none. She became nothing more than property. But Selene still had hope. On her eighteenth birthday, like every werewolf, she expected her wolf to awaken. It was supposed to be the start of her new life. Instead, it turned into a nightmare. Her wolf never came. Her body remained cold and silent. And then… the bond appeared. She was mated to all four of them. The very Alphas who hated her. The ones who owned her. But the truth is Selene was never a wolf to begin with. As her body withers under the weight of the bond, a darker truth surfaces. She is not just a slave… she is the last living witch, born of the very bloodline werewolves have hunted for generations. Now, her enemies wear the mark of her mates... And the witch they thought they broke may be the one who burns them all.

For seventeen years, Wei Chen has been the Wei Clan's greatest shame—a sickly heir unable to cultivate even the most basic qi, branded as worthless in a world where strength determines everything. While his twin sister Wei Lin battles alongside mercenaries to prepare for inheriting his birthright, and his younger brother shows promising talent, Wei Chen remains bedridden, slowly dying from mysterious internal conflicts that no physician can cure. But on the night before his eighteenth birthday, ancient forces stir across dimensions. A ring of crystallized void tears through reality itself, carrying the remnant souls of two legendary beings: the Desire Emperor and the Heavenly Diviner. Wei Chen discovers the shocking truth—he possesses not one, but two divine-grade bloodlines that have been warring within him since birth: an ancient incubus heritage and the legendary Celestial Nine Yang Body. As the ring fuses with his flesh, Wei Chen undergoes a transformation that defies comprehension. His broken body is reforged, his blocked meridians cleared, and his cultivation rockets to Foundation Establishment realm. Most shocking of all, testing reveals spiritual roots of High Heaven Rank—a grade so exceptional it borders on mythology. Yet powerful concealment formations hide the true magnitude of his awakening from the outside world. As his battle-hardened sister returns home expecting to claim his inheritance, and the major forces of Crimson Jade City prepare for what they believe will be another failed ceremony, Wei Chen must navigate a treacherous new existence where his greatest enemies may be those closest to him. The sickly young master is dead. What emerges in his place will shake the cultivation world to its very foundations.

Moon Young Jae’s homophobic family considered him a disgrace and held his freedom in their clutch. Even with being obedient, he was not free from their abuse. Young Jae was almost blinded and crippled by his father when he stood up for himself for the first time. Left to bleed and die, luckily, he did have a family who wanted to save him. It was twin cousins, who were disowned long before him, who saved him. Sad and hopeless, Young Jae became curious when he met his cousins’ friend, who understood him better than anyone, even without words. Curiosity got the best of him, and he ended by handing his heart, love and soul over a plater as a price. Slowly, Young Jae fell in love with everything about and around Min Jun and eventually fell for the man. Calculative Wang Min Jun entered Young Jae’s life accidentally. He challenged Young Jae's belief with a warm smile and flipped Young Jae’s world upside down. Min Jun read Young Jae like an open book. He planned to get over the little crush he had on his seniors' cousin brother but failed miserably. Min Jun did not like the often-visited ‘frown’ between those beautiful eyebrows and even the always singing of ‘sigh’ through those sinful lips. Min Jun made it his mission to change it only to fall for everything about Young Jae. Wang Min Jun carried his share of baggage, but he was well-prepared to meet the demons from the past head-on. But Young Jae became a mess whenever his past demons decided to pay a visit. He realised he did not have to face anything alone as he has a wonderful boyfriend who cherishes everything about him. Both faced their past demons and trauma together. When a person betrayed by a family fell in love with a person who holds his family above everything, sparks flew, and hearts soared in happiness. Will their story has a harmonious bell, or would it be a sea of misery? Teaser: Files were shattered all over Min Jun’s bed, and his laptop was placed on the bedside table. It chimed once in a while, indicating a new email for him to check. The work was piling more and more as he was diligently finishing it. Young Jae walked into his boyfriend’s bedroom to witness his handsome lover working hard. "Jun Jun! Are you busy?" Even though Young Jae did not want to disturb his lover, he knew he needed some help to impress his boss. "Never for you, love. Tell you what you need?" Min Jun did not lift his head from the file he was going through, but the warmth in his voice reached Young Jae's heart without fail. "Do you have a minute to help me in reviewing my monthly internship report? I have to present to our boss tomorrow morning." Young Jae pouted as he asked. Min Ju looked at his adorable tokki and smiled mischievously. "You are brave, asking your superior to help you sneakily. I can't do it for free. I need a huge bribe to help you. What are you planning to offer?" "Be serious. You have too much work to do." Young Jae chided his shameless boyfriend, who never failed to seize every opportunity to make him moan and groan as he takes him to the pleasurable heaven. "Exactly. I have too much work to do. If I am taking my time to help you, I need something in return. Something so tempting that I don’t mind cramping lots of things later." Min Jun smiled like a devil he was as he grabbed Young Jae towards him. The little rabbit who fell into the cunning wolf's lap did not even get a chance to protest as he was devoured breathlessly. Young Jae forgot why he entered the wolf's lair altogether. Min Jun pushed the files away to make space for his little rabbit to lay down comfortably. Young Jae’s report was long forgotten as a treacherous hand started to caress him again under the shirt as a sinful sound filled the room.

Salin just wanted to survive. Drowning in debt, desperate to pay for his mother’s surgery, he had no way out. The last thing he expected was that one kiss with a stranger would turn his world upside down. Jun-Ho was cold, dangerous, a mafia heir and scarred by a past that made him reject any kind of touch. He had never felt desire. Never wanted anyone. Until Salin. One kiss changed everything. Fear turned into craving. A frozen body stirred. But Jun-Ho didn’t know how to deal with it, so he made an offer Salin couldn’t refuse: “Pretend to be my fiancé. In return, your debt disappears.” Salin agreed. Because he had to. But also... because he wanted to. Jun-Ho’s gaze promised pleasure. His touch trembled. And Salin wanted more. But Jun-Ho wanted too, and couldn’t act on it. And that slowly tore them both apart. Salin teased, surrendered, backed off, then tried again. Jun-Ho burned, torn between fear and longing. Between panic and pleasure. And when the touch finally happened… it was too much. Intense. Addictive. Overwhelming. The problem? Neither of them knew how to stop. What started as a deal turned into obsession, desire, and danger. ~ Note: This story has a happy ending.

A tale of stolen faces, buried legacies, and a world of opportunities. In the crooked alleys of Myrrowind, a seventeen-year-old orphan named Ren survives by becoming everyone but himself. Ren has become a ghost in the world of nobles and criminals alike—a master thief, a con artist, a boy with a thousand faces. No one knows who he truly is. Not even him. But the mask remembers.

Yeon-Jun is a dedicated barista at a quaint cafe operated by Sung-Hoon Cha, the son of the man who once saved Yeon-Jun's life. He grapples with selective mutism, a condition that emerged after the traumatic experience of witnessing his parents' tragic death. Although the details of his past have faded from his memory, his body retains the imprint of those painful events. It was during this darkest chapter of his life that Sung-Hoon's father discovered him alone and heartbroken, offering him shelter and a semblance of safety. Despite never having envisioned a future as a barista, Yeon-Jun made a solemn promise to Sung-Hoon's father on his deathbed—to forever stand by his side. This vow compelled Yeon-Jun to forsake his own aspirations and instead pursue a life marked by unrelenting work and perpetual anxiety. Conversely, Woo-San Kim is the affluent CEO of K&L Entertainment, a company steeped in legacy as he belongs to an illustrious lineage of chaebols, being an eighth-generation heir poised to inherit substantial assets from his grandfather. Like Yeon-Jun, Woo-San has also faced the grief of losing both parents to illness, which has led to a strained relationship with his controlling grandfather. The elder Kim holds steadfast to his authority, adamantly refusing to relinquish the company, opting instead to orchestrate a competition among Woo-San, his half-brother, and his cousin for the right to inherit the family fortune. Throughout his childhood, Woo-San has been accompanied by Hee-Jun Go, a devoted friend and secretary who was rescued by Woo-San's father. Hee-Jun, having been separated from his own family at a young age, appreciates the depth of loyalty and friendship. In a heartfelt gesture, Woo-San offers to help Hee-Jun locate his long-lost brother, during which he finds himself inexplicably drawn to Yeon-Jun at the café, captivated by the quiet strength and resilience hidden beneath Yeon-Jun's struggles. However, when Woo-San’s grandfather learns of his burgeoning feelings for Yeon-Jun, he delivers a menacing ultimatum: marry someone of his grandfather's choosing or face disinheritance. Feeling cornered with little left to lose, Woo-San contemplates capitulating to the marriage arrangement, all the while suspecting that his grandfather is orchestrating a more sinister plot that preys on Woo-San's unresolved trauma, compelling him to wrestle for his inheritance. As tensions rise within this power dynamic, Woo-San feels an undeniable connection to Yeon-Jun, yet finds that Yeon-Jun’s condition renders him unable to express his own feelings. Desperate to flee the confines of the forced marriage, Woo-San resolves to turn his grandfather's manipulative tactics against him. In this quest for autonomy, he uncovers unsettling truths that extend far beyond his own life, jeopardizing not only his future but also deeply affecting Hee-Jun, Sung-Hoon, and even his grandfather himself. Faced with this newfound knowledge—one he wishes he could unlearn—Woo-San must grapple with difficult decisions. Will he risk exposing his own vulnerabilities to protect Yeon-Jun? Will he succumb to his grandfather’s wishes to secure his inheritance, or will he forge a path driven by empathy and commitment to those who have become family to him? The weight of these revelations threatens to alter the course of their lives forever. Author's Note: I apologize if this gets a delayed update. My country decided to randomly go to war this Tuesday and I live near the border. So, yeah.
