Emperors New Groove Waterfall

Samo Gorynych is a young man who wants to explore the roots of the world.

Angelo Nobell. A genius. The Emperor of the Chessboard. A destroyer of fates. A walking madness wrapped in human form. To him, life is chess — move by move, sacrifice by sacrifice. He sees the world through the eyes of a chess master — cold, calculated, superior. He doesn’t talk. He makes moves. He places his ego above all. His ambition — above morality. His thirst for power — above life.

(Matured Content-No rape) “She was promised to a prince. But taken by a monster who calls himself king.” In a realm ruled by blood and empire, twenty-four kingdoms bow to one throne — and at the center of it sits Emperor Zareth Ravaryn, a vampire older than most dynasties, cold as obsidian, and feared as much as he is obeyed. Princess Serenya of Vayrana was never meant to catch his eye. Gentle. Devoted. Already betrothed to the human prince she loved from afar. But one imperial ceremony changed everything. When the Emperor sees her — veiled in gold, eyes full of light — he names her his future Empress. She refuses. He doesn’t ask twice. Now torn from her homeland and chained in silk and duty, Serenya finds herself in a court of shadows, where power is worn like perfume and secrets drip from every whispered bow. But Zareth is not just the monster she feared. He is obsessed. And his obsession doesn’t break... it consumes. As the blood empire trembles under rebellion, forbidden longing ignites between captive and captor, and the girl who once dreamt of love must decide: Will she fight for her freedom— or burn for his throne? Dark fantasy meets imperial seduction in this slow-burn vampire romance — with original lore, dangerous rituals, forbidden love, and a heroine who was never meant to kneel. Welcome to the Empire of Thorns. Where love is a game only monsters win. #bookone of The Empire of Thorns series --- Excerpt. A man stood before her. Not just any man. The man. Eyes like twin flames. Lips curled into a knowing smirk. A voice like thunder dipped in velvet. "And who might you be, little dove?" Zareth purred. Serenya's heart slammed against her ribs. "I-I'm... I was just—" "Lost?" he finished for her, his tone mocking yet oddly amused. She nodded, clutching her veil tighter. His eyes trailed down the curve of her figure, and then back to her eyes. "You're not from around here," he said, though he already knew. "I'm from Vayrana," she managed, voice barely above a whisper. His grin widened. "That explains the veil. So well-behaved. So sweet." He stepped closer, and she instinctively backed up—until her back hit the wall. "Running off alone into a palace full of monsters... either you're braver than you look, or dumber," he drawled, eyes gleaming. Her eyes widened at the insult, but something in his tone kept her frozen. "I didn't mean to be disrespectful—" "Oh, but you weren't," he interrupted. "In fact, you've just made this entire evening… interesting." He reached out, adjusting the edge of her veil with a gentleness that contradicted his deadly aura. "What's your name, dove?" She hesitated. "Your name," he repeated, voice darker now. "I don't ask twice." "Serenya," she whispered. He leaned in, mouth brushing close to her ear. "Serenya," he repeated, tasting it. "Pretty name. Suits you." Then, as quickly as he came, he stepped back. The moment shattered. "Go on now, little dove. Before your father comes searching."

What if the world and the whole universe turned out to be just a lab experiment? What if the Creators got frustrated with their creations? What if They decided to abandon the experiment? What if they decided to leave their creations scattered across the universe with just one rule? Andrew Sparrow has to find the answers to these questions and many more if he wishes to survive when the whole universe turns upside down and the only rule is the survival of the fittest.

Leonard lived a quiet, ordinary life — caring for his siblings, working at a forgotten bookstore, and enduring the weight of a family fractured by abandonment. But everything changed the day he found a black leather book — untitled, uncredited, and without any record of its existence. From that moment on, sleep ceased to be rest. It became punishment. Night after night, Leonard is pulled into a warped world where reality bleeds beneath crimson moons and ancient horrors lurk in the shadows. A place where time bends, death walks freely, and hope withers in silence. What begins as a nightmare slowly reveals itself as something deeper — a memory that isn’t his… but remembers him. As the line between dream and waking life begins to erode, Leonard must uncover the truth behind the book, the visions that haunt him, and the unseen force watching from beyond the veil. Because not all dreams are made up. Some dreams are doors. And certain doors, once opened, can never be closed.

Arrogant. Manipulative. Worthless. Despite all the numerous qualities that work for him, he’s still worthless because he had no talent. No saying this would be a lie, because he, in fact, did have talent: talent of will - an indomitable will; talent of the mind - quick-witted and cunning. Still, even with these talents that he made on his own, rejecting destiny, he couldn’t do anything else. In order for ‘fate’ to be at ease, it put him on the battlefield - sure of his death. Forced onto the battlefield and using his cultivated talents, he earned the title of ‘Reaper’, bringing death to all who approached. He was the most decorated soldier to ever be; however, he lost his value. The talent he worked for, which gave him value, was now used as there was no war to fight. Now in the street of men and women, he walked the path of a beggar….drunkard. Somehow, seducing women and harboring their hate after. Unbeknownst to him, during his now routine course of harboring a woman’s hate, he received an opportunity that only the luckiest would receive. He received the True God Emperor System, something fate denied him - but the planes willed. Lacking nothing, wanting nothing is how he shall live from this day forth.
