Octavian Rome

The Ludus King

In the year 3147 the Roman Imperium had finally achieved its goal of colonizing its own corner of the galaxy. Unlike in our own world the Rome of this one never fell, but instead grew to encompass the whole of the earth, and overtime spread itself, and humanity, among the stars. Yet even with the marvelous advancements in technology, healthcare, welfare, and every other category required for a thriving society. There is still one roman tradition that refuses to die. GLADIATORS!! And we should all be glad for it, because during the year 3149, just two years after the long and exhausting colonization campaigns were ended, mankind learned that it was not alone in the galaxy, let alone the universe. It had just stepped onto a much bigger stage where entire planets and even star systems were used as bargaining chips in universal gladiator games. Wars on a galactic scale are far too destructive to simply be allowed, if left unchecked the vast majority of life in the universe would cease to be. Therefore each race recognized by the galactic or universal council (it changes depending on the scale of the race itself) must submit champions or gladiators to represent them in the games. The winners gain unfathomable rewards, the losers perish or worse have their entire species enslaved. Please join our hero as he embarks upon his own perilous journey as a lanista, will he rise above the masses, or fall like so many others before him? Or perhaps his own latent gifts may bring him to a height, or depth hitherto unexplored by any before.

Leo Carter: The Accidental Time Traveler of Ancient Rome

Leo Carter is just your average 21st-century English major—slightly disorganized, perpetually late, and hopelessly hooked on the dramatic, old-school world of Shakespeare. But when a late-night study session with Julius Caesar unexpectedly turns into an accidental trip through time, Leo finds himself not in a college dorm, but smack-dab in the heart of ancient Rome. To make matters worse, Leo isn't just a tourist; he's holding a mysterious, glowing book that seems to pulse with a life of its own and whispers secrets that no modern-day student should ever know. Cue the eye-rolls from history buffs everywhere: Leo Carter, with his sneakers and too-tight jeans, is now the unlikely center of attention in a world full of toga-wearing senators, opportunistic politicians, and more backstabbing than a high school cafeteria. With the help of Gaius, a sharp-tongued scholar who suspects Leo's arrival is part of a bigger picture, Leo must navigate the bustling city streets, avoid unwanted attention from the guard, and figure out why his 21st-century self is now entangled in a centuries-old power struggle. All the while, he’s juggling his modern sensibilities with the unexpected—and often absurd—realities of life in ancient Rome, including questionable hygiene, impromptu gladiator fights, and more than one ill-timed “Et tu, Brute?” moment. As if that wasn't enough, there’s the book: a relic that some seek to control and others to destroy. With his own life on the line, Leo will have to learn the real lessons of ambition, loyalty, and how to properly make an entrance when surrounded by a crowd of toga-clad onlookers. And he might just find that some things—whether ancient or modern—are more timeless than they seem.

The prince struggles on the case of thinking that he is no one of importance. A shadow of his brother. Someone to pay lip service to. Even his father had not cared for him.

Although friendly, this musician of his was keeping secrets, and as the curious child he was, he wants to unravel them all. On Mainland Europe, we follow a landgrave and a burgrave.

Perhaps, even, finally separate them from each other? Finally, on the once richest part of Rome, you will see a doux and a kephale. There was immense threat, either from outside or inside their own lands, the blade of their enemies becoming sharper. Diplomacy helps, but it doesn't solve the problem. However, what happens if the imperial ruler dies unexpectedly, when all of this was happening? Can they survive through it? Or will they use this opportunity to take the throne for themselves? Only the hands of fate will tell what will happen through this mess.

Betrothed to the Italian mafia leader

In the shadowy streets of Italy, where loyalty was a currency and power was a game, Alessandro De Luca ruled with an iron fist. As the formidable leader of the De Luca mafia family, he commanded respect and inspired fear. But Alessandro's life was about to take an unexpected turn. A debt of honor, forged in blood and tradition, bound him to marry the beautiful and innocent Sophia Bianchi. Their families' alliance would secure peace and strengthen the De Luca empire. Sophia, however, was unaware of the arrangement. Her world was about to shatter. As she stood at the threshold of her destiny, Sophia faced a daunting choice: obey her family's wishes or risk everything for freedom. Little did she know, Alessandro's world was just as complicated. The weight of his legacy, the loyalty of his men, and the secrets of his past threatened to destroy the very foundation of their union. Their betrothal would ignite a firestorm of passion, loyalty, and deceit. Would Sophia surrender to the darkness of Alessandro's world, or would she become the light that transformed him? Prologue: (The scene sets the tone for the story, introducing Alessandro's ruthless leadership and Sophia's innocence.) Alessandro De Luca stood on the rooftop, gazing over the twinkling lights of Rome. His city. His kingdom. "Sir, the Bianchi family has agreed to the terms," his consigliere, Marco, said. Alessandro's gaze narrowed. "Ensure Sophia understands her role. She will be my wife, my partner, and my property." Marco nodded. "Yes, sir." In another part of the city, Sophia Bianchi laughed with her friends, her heart full of hope and dreams. Tonight, her life would change forever. ---

A Fraud as Hero and A Hero as Demon Lord: A Twisted Tale

[WPC August Entry 2024] "Erik, you committed a serious crime by plagiarizing a man's work," declared the God. "There are millions of criminals committing worse crimes than mine. Why am I being punished?" Erik retorted. "Because you stole a novel from a man who used to be a hero and died protecting the planet." --- "Hello, fraud. Live in a world as me, the pathetic hero you described, and I will be your greatest adversary, the demon lord," Rome proclaimed with a chilling smile. In this novel, Erik is reborn as the hero of the stolen tale, but the demon lord Rome and the Gods won't allow him a moment's peace. Because who wouldn't? Erik stole a novel from Rome, God's favored child. He plagiarized it, catapulting himself to the position of the world's top novelist while Rome spiraled into despair, ultimately ending his own life. For Rome, the novel wasn't just a collection of words. It was a universe where he had lived through triumph and sacrifice, where every character and plot twist had been a part of his own existence. As a former hero, Rome made a wish to the Gods. He yearned to be reborn as the demon lord in the same world where he had met his end at the hands of the demon lord, with Erik reincarnated as the hero destined to fall by the demon lord's hand. Will Erik defy fate and evade the clutches of the demon lord, or will Rome exact his revenge? Or perhaps, something even more monumental is about to unfold? ---- **Disclaimer:** This novel is a work of fiction and is not based on any real individuals or events. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. It is not intended to offend or attack anyone. I deeply apologize if any content is perceived as offensive.

Cursed Witch of Grimrot

[MATURE CONTENT] Bound to demons by blood. Bound to demons by heart. It doesn't matter where Emory is, darkness will always find and claim her. *** Emory Redfern is not only the weakest witch in her coven, but she's also cursed. What kind of curse it is and who put it on her is just as good of a guess as yours. For all she knows it's just bad luck, as her life seems to be full of it. However, when she messes up a particular summoning spell, a demon slaughters her entire coven. When she's saved - though, she would prefer the term kidnapped - by a demon hunter named Rome, she discovers that not everything is as they seem. And whatever darkness that lurks inside of her, it's going to be the catalyst to set it all off. *** “Can you be quiet? I'm trying not to die here.” Parma finally says something that isn't the word fuck. Emory is about to point out that maybe she should try keeping her mouth shut too, seeing as she even heard her muttering about murder and killing. She's suddenly surrounded by a lot of it, now. It's not something nice to notice. “If you hadn't stolen my pie, I don't think we would be in here at all.” Emory shrugs, then she remembers Parma can't really see her in here. Unless she can because she's a vampire or a werewolf. “Hey,” Emory whispers, “What are you?” There's a strange sound that Parma makes in the back of her throat and then a moment of silence. “I just wanted to know if you could see in this darkness,” Emory sighs, rolling her eyes. “Why is everyone here so prickly?” “Why are you such a fu-” Emory’s hands fumble over Parma's face in the dark until she finds her mouth and covers it with her palm. Hmm, she tilts her head, okay Walker is right about this being a good way to shut people up. And then Emory bites her lip to keep from crying because Walker is gone now. “Okay, seriously,” she murmurs. “One, you need to stop cursing. Two, this may be rated eighteen plus, but you shouldn't take advantage of that.”
