Mint Cafeteria

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.

Too Gay for You: You Give me Heart Eyes (GL)

Popular girl Ari Cho is absolutely charming, leaving Yumi Kim, the school nerd, too gay to function normally. ** FOREWORD: Like any other day, I sat back and watched Ari hold court in the far corner of the school cafeteria. She was surrounded by her usual swarm of admirers, each one trying—and failing—to win her over. One by one, they crumbled under the weight of her gentle rejections, their faces painted with the sting of unrequited affection. Oh, what a marvellous sight to behold. The scene took a dramatic turn when two of the boys started arguing, throwing out accusations about who was making Ari more uncomfortable. The irony was almost too good—they were both so oblivious to the fact that their entire presence was likely making her want to bolt out the door. I took another bite of my sandwich, savouring the free entertainment. Poor Ari, trapped in the middle of a gaggle of hormonal teenagers who genuinely believed their cringe-worthy displays of “manliness” would sweep her off her feet. Pathetic. You might be wondering why I’m not stepping in to rescue Ari from that circus of admirers. Well, let me give you three solid reasons why meddling is a terrible idea for me. First, I’m no Superman—I don’t do heroic deeds. Second, I’m far too comfortable living my drama-free life to jeopardise it now. And third, let’s be real, my body is definitely not built for a catfight. As I happily munched on my sandwich, enjoying the chaos from a safe distance, I made a grave error, I locked eyes with Ari. Oh, crap. Picture this: while the two idiotic boys were still mid-argument, Ari—with a slightly shy smile—started walking towards my direction, her tray of food balanced in her hands. No, no, no. God, please tell me she’s not actually coming to talk to m— “Hi, Yumi!” she said casually, her smile so bright it could power a small city. ** OTHER STORIES: Miss Not So Typical (on going)

By my leave, Alpha

If I am to make it out of here alive I can not wake the man who I choose to go home with. Of all nights to get pushed over the edge, why did I have to go home with someone. But I needed to get my mind off the fact my boyfriend of 3 years just dumped me after graduation. So here I am. Trying to pull my panties out from under Jacob? Jackson? Crap. If there was ever a story to judge me it’s this one. ‘Andrea Fray, if u don’t come down I’m leaving’ a text flashed on my phone. Great my best friend was leaving me to walk or hail a cab. Who needs underwater, right. It’s been 6 weeks since my drunken one night stand and I’m sitting here in the bathroom of the apartment Denise ‘Nessi’ and I share as she hugs me. “‘it’s ok, we can figure it out, we don’t have to return to the pack next week, I’m sure we can tell ur dad something to get out of the pairing ceremony.” The pairing ceremony was a chance for all packs to join and a few from over seas, to come together and find their mates, it goes on for 2 weeks for maximum pairing. But I know if I find my mate there is no chance he will be able to accept another and child. I’m daughter to the most powerful pack of North America, the Blood Rain pack. I cannot return carrying a child when I am not claimed. Being pregnant and unclaimed was very bad, usually females who got pregnant with another males pup who wasn’t their mate, were killed because her mate didn’t want to raise another wolfs pup. I don’t think my father could protect me seeing as how it was one of the laws he introduced when he rose to power. It was the first night of the pairing ceremony and alphas rolled in with their unmated pack members and usually a few warriors from their packs. There was well over 10,000 by now. I was headed to the kitchen to sneak a little snack when a delicious smell took me to the front door. The smell of fresh rain and mint, just mouthwatering. There he stood, 6’4” black wavy hair, muscles straining his white button up was showing off the outline of an 8 pack. MATE! Crap….

Reincarnate With Me~

"WHAT WAIT NO! Ok ok ok we can talk about this Mason..." she tried to negotiate as she hid in a hole covering her head with a simple block of cobblestone. "Why did you have to threaten Paul like that?" (the pandas name was decided then and there unfortunately for 'Paul') "I was just making sure youd hide instead of trying to fight. you know you suck at pvp" the voice teased over the headset making her face red... not in embarrassment but anger. this girl was quite competitive so almost instantly she broke the cobblestone and using basic skills if the game by jumping and placing a block under herself she got out of the hole readying to dodge an arrow and kill the skeleton. just to see Masons suit wearing character standing there with a single arrow in his leg. which if you're thinking shed tease him for getting damage it should be noted that, she in fact, has 9 arrows all over her characters body. including the eye. "I know you too well Coby. but good diamond scouting. maybe I should upgrade your equipment to iron..." Mason said as he turns mining the diamond before jumping up the blocks heading to the exit as coby follows close behind. "That's not fair! I had it handled I could've killed it myself!" she whined feeling looked down on. again. sadly before Mason could apologize an offer her cute animals to compensate her moody attitude the ground violently shook. not just in his city, Cobys too. "AH MASON!"she screamed as all the tables and chairs in the cafeteria started to move forcing people ti fall or get shoved by them as loose trays ended up in the floor tripping those trying to get out of the way of the moving furniture. "Coby! Dont tell me you have an earthquake too?" he asks as she could also hear screaming in the background of his mic. All across the world, at the same time everyone experienced the same thing. an earthquake which toppled sky scrapers, moved bunkers, crushed anything that wasnt made of steel... well some cars did fall into a giant crevice and get crushed when it closed itself. but even after all that the suffering didnt end. as government managed to get on their feet to start helping the citizens of their own countries... a tsunami hit. everywhere. storms raged, animals attacked after land was shrunken. it's almost as if the entire planet shrunk and the mass of water rose hundreds of kilometers. many lives were lost. in the earthquake, 8% of earth's original population died or were missing. the tsunami finalized any doubt about the missing being alive as a further 27% drowned or were swept out to sea. the storms caused further damage as another 5% died to lightning, freezing temperatures or just falling I'll from the wet and cold and barely any shelter. the animal attacks lost us another 17%. in total 57% of earth's population died in a span of a month and with most hospitals being underwater, crumbling or over run with wild animals of all shapes and sizes. the rate of birth declined as infants died in the arms of mother, fathers, strangers, and maybe if they were lucky... doctors. through all of these statistics, Coby and Mason survived... for now at least. ------------------- Authors note I'm not an english major nor did I excel at it in school. I'm just a casual worker who loves making up worlds before bed and have previously written fanfic about 6 years ago on wattpad. theres gonna be cliche cringe bs and probably poorly written scenes as well as mature content varying between sex, r4pe and torture. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

My Wife Gets More Vicious The More I Spoil Her

Cotton candy is soft and easy to pinch; it flattens when you squeeze it. Her elder sister troubled her? Redness started brimming around her eyes. The man she met through a blind date bullied her?

If you need anything, just tell me." Xie Xuan, "?” He did not believe it until he saw with his own eyes how Little Cotton Candy pinched the cannon fodder girl's chin and gave her an evil smile, "Xie Xuan is my man. You don't even deserve to look at him. How dare you try to compete against me?" Xie Xuan, "…" How did his Little Cotton Candy evolve into a super-strong Mint candy? Perhaps the reason for her growing viciousness was because he spoilt her too much. At this moment, the cannon fodder lady still had something to say. "Then, do you know who Xie Xuan really is?" Hearing that, Lu Haiqiao fell silent. Damnit, so this damn man was better in acting than me? 1V1 'If you pamper me, I will pamper you even more.
