Valerian Laureline

Shadow of the First Sin

Valerian, an outcast in his own home of Elyria, a celestial realm where immortal avians live, is anything but ordinary. Born from the forbidden union of a mortal man and an avian woman, Valerian is a half-breed, bearing the wings of an avian and the soul of a human. For this, he has been shunned his entire life. In Elyria, avians live eternally, their wings symbolize their divine nature. Valerian's mother, upon his birth, was banished to the mortal plane of Eldoria—a land teeming with diverse races and cultures. This punishment was not just for their union but because of a prophecy foretelling that a child born from such a forbidden bond would bring the end of times. Stripped of her celestial essence, Valerian’s mother was forced to live among mortals. Valerian grew up in isolation, his childhood marked by loneliness and fear. Seen as an omen, he was kept locked away, his every action scrutinized. Viewing Elyria as a prison, Valerian rebelled, hoping to be cast out and find freedom. Yet, no matter his actions, the avians refused to banish him, ignoring his desperate attempts to escape. Determined to break free, Valerian takes a drastic gamble that finally grants him his desired freedom, but at a steep price. Now that Valerian has become mortal, he faces a whole new set of challenges. Struggling with an identity crisis, he must discover who he truly is: a human, an avian, or something entirely different. The story delves into the rich and varied world of Eldoria, introducing a host of mortal residents such as elves, the fey, beastfolk, wizards and witches, dragons, and many more.

Valerian Empire

A dark time when the creatures of shadow descended unto the tranquil human lands, making their existence known. A time followed when empires were led by humanity's conspiracy and betrayal, a time filled with hatred, but unbeknownst to the humans, they were only mere puppets, pawns of greater beings of darkness, entities with the power to crush anything and everything in their way. What happens when a small human girl catches the eye of one of these so-called greater beings, a pureblooded Lord? Can an ant such as her survive the political strifes and fearsome feuds between the lands and the monsters that control them. For those who fear vampires, ghosts and the unknown, I offer two words of advice… Tread lightly. -------- "Why should I avoid him? He was a perfect gentleman, a good man," Katherine Welcher argued in his defense. "Good or not, neither matter," Alexander Delcrov warned her, "As long as you're under my wing, you shall behave and listen to my words. Do not let any man kiss you, Katherine. I don’t want others to call you improper." "There was nothing improper about it! And I'm not yours to obey," she blurted out in annoyance, feeling her face flush with embarrassment for the second time this evening, "I mean, you can't order me aro—-" "So disobedient," he stated with nonchalance before moving his hand from her waist to her back, pulling her closer to him as they danced. His breath tickled her nape. "So you’ll only listen if you are mine?"

“Tapi dia pria yang baik,” dia membantah dan melihat matanya menyipit karena perkataannya. “Dan aku bisa saja seorang pria yang jahat,” dia memperingatkan, “Sampai kamu berada di bawah perlindunganku, aku harap kamu jaga sikapmu dan patuh akan perintahku. Jangan biarkan seorang pria manapun menciummu, Katherine. Kami tidak ingin kamu jatuh ke tangan yang salah seperti sebelumnya, jadi ikuti saja perkataanku.” “Aku bukan milikmu, jadi aku tidak harus mendengar perkataanmu,” dia keceplosan dan merasa wajahnya memerah karena malu untuk yang kedua kalinya di malam itu, “Maksudku, kamu tidak bisa.” “Dasar bandel,” dia bergumam sebelum tangannya bergerak dari pinggangnya ke punggungnya, menariknya mendekat dan berbisik, “Apa kamu ingin menjadi milikku?” Tahun 1834 Sebuah masa kegelapan dimana mahluk-mahluk bayangan turun ke tanah manusia yang damai dan secara perlahan menunjukkan keberadaan mereka.

Awaken Demon Lord Valerian

"I am Valerian Erebus Jata and I am the progenitor of all Demons. The First vampire or Origin, if that suits more to your taste. But, believe it or not, in another life I was a human. Yes, human. Sometimes that life feels like a distant dream now. In numerous eons that have made up my life, you are only one of the two beings that I have told this. You should feel honoured. There are very few things that I have not seen. No joy I have not felt. Very few pains I have not experienced or inflicted and even fewer atrocities that I have not committed. I have ruled over a few empires that spanned continents and destroyed many more than you can imagine. Why? The answer is unfairly simple. After so much time, one's sense of ethics and morality slowly gets eroded and a sense of arrogance and self importance begins to seep into your very soul. Yet after a lot more time, you begin to have regrets. See different paths but by then, you have already created oceans of steaming blood and mountains of fresh corpses. I fear no one's vengeance. Most who dared go against me have already met their Maker and their Maker dares not step up to harass me. I need pay no penance. What I did was for my survival and the survival of those I care for. All I want is a peaceful immortal life but there are pests like you that come out of the wood work and cause me to fall back on old habits. I really enjoyed this chat but I have a dinner with my children and they hate it when their Father is late. You, swine, thankfully, are not on the menu. My palette is quite sensitive so you must die now, like the little pig you are." ***** Daily updates but one chapter a day.

The Villainess is Back to Life

To the ones whose fire burns brightest, turning pain into power and scars into strength. You deserve a love as fierce as your heart and as unrelenting as the justice you seek. ※※※ Princess Natasha Nicholai had spent thirteen years drenched in blood, a weapon in her twin sister Dalilah’s hands. Manipulated by Dalilah’s cunning cruelty, Natasha unknowingly carried out the slaughter of hundreds of innocents—including her own brother and dearest friend, Valerian. The weight of her crimes crushed her, but not before they finally caught up to her. In the shadow of the Imperial Palace, her execution was swift and cold—a fitting end for a pawn of betrayal. But fate wasn’t done with her yet. Instead of meeting eternal death, Natasha awakens in her own past, months before her fourteenth birthday—the day Dalilah’s control began. Staring at the familiar walls of her childhood, Natasha is haunted by the faces of those she once killed and the blood on her hands. This time, she vows, will be different. No longer will she be Dalilah’s puppet. This time, she will protect her younger brother, shield her friends from the senseless bloodshed, and dismantle her sister’s twisted schemes before they take root. And this time, she will make Dalilah pay. But as Natasha seeks her revenge, she uncovers dark secrets that go far beyond her sister’s betrayal. Someone stole her magic when she was only four years old, leaving her vulnerable to Dalilah’s manipulation. Someone—some force—gave her this second chance. But why? And for what purpose? Her search for answers brings her face to face with Ethan Theodore, a dangerous man cloaked in shadows, whose ruby-red eyes seem to see straight into her soul. He is an enigma, bound to her fate by a thread she can’t quite unravel. Whether he will help her or destroy her remains a mystery. In ‘The Villainess is Back to Life', Natasha must confront the demons of her past, carve her own path forward, and unravel the web of magic and destiny that binds her. In a world where betrayal is blood-deep and fate is as unforgiving as steel, she will have to decide whether to become the hero of her own story—or embrace the villainy she once lived. ※※※ ※ The Villainess will be a novel of three volumes/books, and it's currently on the 1st one. We still have quite a long way to go, I hope you'll stay with me on this ride! ※ IMPORTANT!
