The First Time We Met

Taryn fights monsters. Lucien is one. Season 1: Forced to team up by the very council she’s made to serve, Taryn finds herself trapped with Lucien—a vampire with too many secrets and a smile that makes her blood run hot. In the midst of growing dangers, the two of them must work together to survive. But the closer they get, the harder it becomes to tell where the real threat lies—outside their walls, or between them. Lucien knows better than to care. He’s spent years perfecting the art of detachment, but something about Taryn makes it impossible to stay indifferent. The fire she carries is fierce, dangerous—and every moment with her only stokes the flames higher. Bound by circumstance and haunted by shadows neither of them can outrun, Taryn and Lucien are playing a game they can’t afford to lose. The fire between them grows hotter with every step, but giving in might cost them everything. Some fires are meant to burn. Others consume. This one could destroy them both. Season 2: Framed for assassinations they didn’t commit, Taryn and Lucien are thrust into a deadly game where trust is scarce and betrayal lurks in every shadow. As the fragile peace between powerful factions begins to unravel, they must navigate a labyrinth of secrets and lies, uncovering dangerous truths about those who seek to control them. As tensions rise, their bond is tested in ways neither anticipated, and their personal struggles threaten to fracture their fragile partnership. Against the backdrop of a brewing war, new allies and enemies emerge, challenging their notions of trust and loyalty. As the season hurtles toward its climactic revelations, Taryn and Lucien must decide what they are willing to sacrifice—and who they can rely on—in a world that seeks to tear them apart. Season 2 is a story of survival, betrayal, and the unyielding strength found in the most unexpected places. Season 3: When safety is a fleeting memory and enemies circle ever closer, Taryn, Lucien, and Kah’el find themselves bound by necessity in a secluded forest haven. As mysterious threats prowl the shadows and signs of encroaching danger multiply, the trio works to fortify their defenses while grappling with unspoken tensions and buried truths. Strange tracks near their clearing suggest a threat greater than any of them anticipated, forcing them into a delicate balance of survival and trust. For Taryn, every decision risks fracturing the fragile alliance that’s formed between them, as the boundaries of loyalty blur and their individual pasts clash with their shared present. Season 3 is a tense, character-driven exploration of resilience and vulnerability, weaving quiet moments of connection with the ever-looming threat of a deadly unknown. In the end, it’s not only the beasts in the woods that must be faced, but the fears—and desires—they’ve long kept hidden.

Eren Kain was an ordinary engineer and inventor until the day the Tower of Trials appeared. A massive, otherworldly spire reaching into the heavens, the tower beckoned humanity with promises of power, wealth, and immortality—but also death. Unlike the others, Eren was forcibly bound to the Tower. No one else could enter until he began his climb, and he couldn’t leave unless he reached the top. Stripped of magic, aura, or any supernatural ability, Eren’s only advantage is his engineering genius and the technology he can smuggle in. From basic firearms to drones and exoskeletons, he uses every tool at his disposal to survive the monsters, traps, and bizarre ecosystems within the Tower. Yet even technology has its limits in a world governed by magic. As Eren climbs, he discovers the Tower isn’t just a trial but a puzzle. Its magic isn’t arbitrary—it’s systematic, a science he slowly learns to decode. However, one wrong calculation could kill him instantly, forcing him to balance experimentation with survival. He scavenges magic crystals, artifacts, and spell books, using them in crude, improvised ways to bolster his arsenal. Over time, he begins merging technology and magic, creating unique hybrid tools to overcome the increasingly insurmountable challenges. But why was Eren chosen? What secret does the Tower hold? With no escape and the weight of humanity’s fate on his shoulders, Eren must climb—not just to survive, but to unravel the truth of the Tower itself. every 50 collections I’ll give a chapter and every 20 powerstones I’ll give a chapter every 10 reviews I’ll give a chapter

I thought signing a marriage contract with Martin Bryan would be the hardest decision of my life. Cold, commanding, and utterly untouchable, he made it clear—this wasn’t about love; it was about appearances. One year later his perfect wife and my mother’s medical debts would vanish. Simple. Or so I thought. But nothing about Martin is simple. Not the way his eyes linger a second too long when he thinks I’m not looking. Not the nights when his touch feels more real than the lies we tell the world. And certainly not the secret I’ve been carrying since the night we broke all the rules. I planned to leave when the contract ended, to walk away and never look back. But fate has a cruel sense of humor. Years later, standing in a crowded gallery, I see him again. And he sees... her. Martins's gaze burns through me, but how his eyes lock on my daughter makes my breath catch. "Rina," he murmurs, voice low and lethal, "tell me whose child that is." And just like that, my carefully built life was on the verge of collapse.

My life had always been a series of disappointments. Every dream I chased—whether career ambitions, friendships, or even love—seemed to fall apart. By the time I turned 22, I had hit rock bottom, questioning if life was even worth living. That’s when I discovered VRMMORPGs (Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games), a world where I could escape my misery and become someone else. One game, Gildoria Online (GO), stood out above all. Set in a realm of magic and swordplay, it was everything I had ever dreamed of. A place where I could grow stronger, conquer kingdoms, and battle legendary foes. At the top of the game was the ultimate challenge—the Demon King, who ruled over a demon army from the top floor of Doomspire Tower in the Demon Kingdom. In GO, my character’s name was Yeongho. I dedicated myself to the game, rising to Level 200 and becoming a respected veteran known for my skill. I spent my time helping newcomers, offering guidance and encouragement. That’s when I met her—a red-haired girl with mesmerizing green eyes. From the moment we crossed paths, I felt an undeniable connection. We became inseparable, laughing, exploring, and conquering the game’s toughest challenges together. For the first time in years, I felt truly alive. But then, disaster struck. Players across the world suddenly vanished from their homes and found themselves physically transported to Gildoria. In a shocking turn of events, 500,000 players were trapped in the game, transported to another world. Gildoria Online had become a supernatural death game. The stakes were no longer just virtual. The game’s system remained intact, and if a player’s HP dropped to zero, their real body would perish, causing them to vanish from Earth forever. The only way to survive and return to Earth was to defeat the Demon King. I wasn’t logged in when the catastrophe began, but when I saw Mina’s ID among the trapped players, my heart sank. I couldn’t just stand by. Without hesitation, I logged in, determined to rescue her from this nightmare. My body slowly transformed into shards of light, and I was transported to Gildoria. This is the story of how I fought against time, fear, and a death game to rescue the girl I met in a virtual world—a world where the line between life and death had disappeared.
