Garou Backstory

The rise of a legendary warlock

From a childhood marked by suffering, through the struggles of growing up, and finally achieving success in life, he had endured it all. One day, he decided it was time to rest—time to settle down, marry, have children, and train them to carry on his legacy. But fate had other plans. Reality was cruel. On his way to his wedding, his life was abruptly cut short. A sniper's bullet pierced his heart, killing him instantly in his car. Yet, in a twist of cosmic irony, his soul was extracted before it could pass on. In a half-conscious, half-unconscious state, his soul traveled millions of light years across the universe. He witnessed stars and galaxies, memories that weren’t his own, and a recurring nightmare that would haunt him for eternity. When he awoke, it felt as though he had emerged from an eternal slumber. To his shock, he was no longer in his old world. Instead, he found himself in the body of his ten-year-old self, having transmigrated to a completely different world—a world of darkness and despair. This new world was a place where sadness and bloodshed reigned supreme. The strong oppressed the weak, crushing them like insects. Here, money held no value without power. It was a brutal, unforgiving realm where survival was the only law. Zilon, as he now called himself, would have to cling to anything—anything at all—just to stay alive. But survival was only the beginning. Zilon, who had started from the very bottom, would have to claw his way to the top. He would face life and death, sweetness and sorrow, and ultimately, he would confront the true disaster of the universe: the Demon God. Yet, the demons were not his only concern. Otherworldly creatures known as Chaos Creatures emerged periodically through a rift called the Chaos Gate. These beings possessed the power to annihilate entire universes if left unchecked. Despite these overwhelming odds, Zilon’s ambition burned brighter than ever. He vowed to become the strongest being in the entire multiverse. He wanted his name to strike terror into the hearts and minds of all who heard it. Not dragons, vampires, werewolves, elves, beastkins, demons, giants, or titans—nothing would be worthy of being called his enemy. But would these be his only adversaries? Or would greater challenges lie ahead? ...... **NOTE 1:** If you’re wondering whether this book is a mistake, rest assured—it’s not. If you want to dive straight into the main story, start reading from Chapter 17 or 18 (subtitled *Zilon*). However, I highly recommend reading Chapters 15-16 first, as they provide crucial backstory and context. To clarify, Chapter 19 (which is Chapter 17 in the main storyline) is where the main narrative truly begins! **NOTE 2:** No matter what, do not—under any circumstances—compare the contents of this book to the real world. This is a work of pure fantasy. While some elements may coincidentally align with reality, they are entirely fictional and not intended to reflect real-world events or ideologies.

Le Paria Destiné de l'Alpha : L'Ascension du Chanteur de Lune.

« Je ne serai pas définie comme une 'déviante sans loup' » Je ne serai pas un pion dans les 'jeux des Alphas' Et je refuse d'être unie au parfait inconnu qui a déboulé dans ma vie et a tout bouleversé... Cela pourrait pourtant être mon plus grand défi. » C'étaient les mots que Lyla se murmurait à elle-même alors qu'elle quittait le gala annuel des loups-garous, trempée de sa sueur et de ses phéromones. Il y a seulement quelques jours, elle était une adolescente heureuse existant dans le monde humain – essayant de terminer l'université et de partir loin, d'oublier tout ce qu'elle avait vécu et de recommencer une nouvelle vie, mais maintenant, elle est au milieu du gala, étalée sur le sol avec ses désirs étalés au visage de tous et Alpha Ramsey Kincaid – le leader Lycan du Trône de la Lune Blanche tendant ses mains vers elle. Si elle les prend, elle apportera du déshonneur à sa famille car elle n'est pas en état de fréquenter quiconque, encore moins le leader Lycan qui est hors de sa portée et si elle refuse, elle risque d'être envoyée à la prison de la meute pour ne pas avoir mieux pris soin d'elle-même pendant ses chaleurs - Oui, c'était un crime pour elle d'être sans loup. Mais lorsqu'il la touche, quelque chose en elle s'éveille... Des désirs ? Oui ! Des pouvoirs cachés par la déesse de la lune ? Oui ! Et peut-être, juste peut-être, l'éveil de son loup manquant dont la voix peut apaiser les loups féroces et guérir... Peut-elle apprendre à faire confiance à cet homme dont la bouche dit une chose et les mains en disent une autre, ou va-t-elle devenir un pion - une pièce d'échecs dans les jeux 'des Alphas' ? Une chose est sûre - Lyla Woodlands en a fini d'être la 'déviante sans loup' sale et petite de la meute. Il est temps que cette merveille sans loup leur montre de quoi elle est faite. # Brisement lent # Vieilles prophéties floues # Triangle amoureux - ML et meilleure amie de la FL #Vilain amoureux de la FL Rejoignez mon groupe discord : https://discord.gg/t2w9NgC4

Immortal NPC

When Ethan died, he expected either an afterlife or nothing at all. What he didn’t expect was waking up in Eternal Dominion, the most popular VRMMO in the world, but not as a player. Instead, he’s stuck as a nameless NPC in a medieval high-fantasy world filled with dungeons, guilds, and legendary heroes. That would’ve been weird enough, but there’s one problem. The game hasn’t even launched yet. Even worse, he hasn’t just woken up a few years before launch, he’s thousands of years in the past, back when the events of the game’s lore were still unfolding. He’s in the age of legendary wars, fallen empires, and forgotten gods—an era players were only supposed to read about in history books. At first, Ethan thinks it’s just an elaborate backstory running on AI scripts… until he realizes something terrifying. The NPCs aren’t just scripted, they’re alive. They have real thoughts, real emotions, and real fears. And the world itself? It’s not just code. It bleeds, it evolves, and it remembers. As an unkillable anomaly in this living, breathing world, Ethan has all the time in existence to do whatever he wants. Whether it’s trolling ancient heroes, gambling on wars that haven’t been written yet, or taking naps in dungeons before they become raid bosses. But as history approaches the era players will one day enter, Ethan starts to notice things that shouldn’t be happening. Events are shifting. Unwritten dangers are emerging. And something, or someone, knows he doesn’t belong. Gods, developers, and power-hungry rulers alike demand answers: Who is he? Why can’t he die? And why does he know the future of a world that was never supposed to be real? Unfortunately for them, Ethan has only one goal in mind— Live as lazily as possible, forever.

Re: Vesper

Sixteen-year-old Watanabe Saya is a dreamer trapped in the confines of a mundane life, longing for an escape from the weight of expectations and the harsh realities of high school. Her days are filled with sketches of fantastical worlds where she wishes she could belong—worlds that seem to leap from the pages of her imagination and beckon her closer. When a rumor about an abandoned factory on the outskirts of her town surfaces, saying it’s haunted, curiosity ignites within her. Seeking adventure and an outlet for her restlessness, Saya and her friends venture into the enigmatic ruins, only to be thrust into chaos. In a blinding flash, Saya is transported to Vesper, a twilight realm pulsating with magic and ancient secrets. Here, she meets Ronan, a strikingly handsome and enigmatic boy, who reveals that she possesses a rare ability to reset time upon death. But each death brings her closer to the terrifying Shade of Dusk, a malevolent entity threatening to engulf Vesper in darkness. As Saya battles formidable enemies alongside Ronan—each with tragic backstories and the power to challenge her very existence—her repeated deaths force her to confront emotional scars and shape her into an unexpected hero. Yet as their bond deepens amidst chaos, so too does the risk of losing everything she’s begun to care for. Navigating a world where every choice has dire consequences, and trusting her instincts could mean the difference between life and death, Saya must uncover the truth of her purpose in Vesper. With the fate of realms hanging in the balance, will she find the courage to embrace her destiny, resist the encroaching shadows, and forge a new legacy anew? In "Re: Vesper," the journey of self-discovery, love, and resilience unravels in a gripping tale where every heartbeat could lead to a new beginning—or a tragic end.

Oshi no ko: Akari Hayaki (FanFiction)

Ai Hoshino, born as an intelligent idol... was murdered. I opened my eyes... "[What is this? W-wait don't tell me...]" Yes, I got reborn to a new life! My mom is just like me, she got pregnant at a young age and gave birth to me when she was 16. She is very cool, a great singer, but full of secrets too. Her name is Akari, which means light. And yes, this story isn't really all about me, but how my mom is able to live her life with her secret child. But though I am curious how my twins are living right now, I can't believe that me and my mom's life, would join into their life too. I just hope they don't caught on to me and my mom's secret! I am no longer Ai Hoshino, but now Ai Hayaki! And this is the life of me and my super duper awesome mom! This is a fanfiction of the anime Oshi no ko! Wednesday or Saturday! (There's a chance I will post 2 chapters a week, but if I don't post on Wednesday, it means ill post on Saturday!) Want to thank you in advance for those who will read! I recommend you guys watch Oshi no ko to understand, but if not, here is a short summary!(but its okay if not since ill add a bit of backstory of each that's connected to the original) Spoiler Alert! Ai Hoshino is an idol who gave birth to twins, Aqua and Ruby, but she needs to keep it a secret so that her fame won't drop and that she can continue being an idol. She loves her children so much but sadly got stabbed in front of her son aqua(Btw the twins were her fans in their past life but when they died, they reincarnated into her babies). So Ai then died, and aqua has a goal to find his father(which is the killer) by joining acting(Aqua is really good at acting), while Ruby is doing idol stuff to become like her mom, Ai. A lot of things happened and I do recommend to watch the anime or read the manga! But I decided to let my story take place during the time when Aqua is making the movie for revenge, but added a little storyline where he is trying to catch his father which I made it up hehe. (I will add that storyline somewhere in the future chapters hehe) Hope you enjoy my story, Peace. Edit: I just realized that I accidentally included this for the spirity awards HAHAHHAHA! That's why I couldn't find anime tags and it isn't part of the fanfic.

Might post it next month tho :D) I made a Twitter account you can follow named- @abe_writes - you can follow if you want :D '_'

Sauvé par l'Alpha qui s'avère être mon Compagnon

"Pas ici, faiblard ! Nous nous retrouverons au ruisseau près de la frontière du clan dans une heure, alors tu pourras me montrer ce que tu as." lui informa-t-il. "Très bien, défi accepté ! Mais si je te bats, tu arrêteras de me harceler et tu me laisseras tranquille !" cracha Aurora. "D'accord." Il lui répondit. "La haine que j'ai pour toi cessera quand tu ne seras plus. Là-bas, personne ne viendra à ton secours et je pourrai enfin te déchirer. Personne ne manque de respect à Dante impunément !" pensa Dante intérieurement en s'éloignant. La vie d'Aurora était censée être parfaite puisqu'elle était de naissance noble, mais malheureusement, elle était loin d'être parfaite. Son père était le bêta, le second en commandement de l'Alpha de leur meute et sa mère était l'une des guerrières importantes de la meute. En tant que première fille, elle était traitée comme une fleur, protégée du mal, de la tristesse, des troubles et des perturbations, et elle n'était exposée qu'à la pure joie, à l'amour pur, au bonheur et à tout ce qui est beau en grandissant, mais sa vie n'était pas remplie de roses, à mesure qu'elle vieillissait ! En grandissant, elle avait cru qu'elle serait normale comme tous les autres loups-garous de sa meute et de toute la communauté des loups-garous, mais hélas, elle était étrangement différente. Elle était la seule loup-garou de sa meute qui n'avait pas de loup, un animal intérieur, donc elle était traitée comme une paria. Alors que les autres loups-garous obtenaient leurs loups pour leur seizième anniversaire, le sien refusait d'apparaître. Même pas quand elle a eu dix-huit ans. Même pas quand elle rencontra son compagnon !!!

Lever de l'Alpha Obscur

[COMPLET - GAGNANT SILVER 8 000 $USD : Compétition Loup-garou 2022] Zev avançait vers elle, toute la beauté brutale et éclatante, menton baissé et ces yeux perçants incroyables fixés sur elle. Il ne s'arrêta qu'à un souffle d'elle et bloqua sa vue de tous les autres mâles du cercle. Ses yeux se baissèrent sur sa bouche tandis qu'il se penchait, son murmure jouant sur sa peau. « Tu. Es. À. Moi. » Sa voix profonde vibrait dans son ventre alors que les hurlements de la meute de loups s'élevaient derrière lui pour se répercuter à travers les montagnes de Thana, tandis que les autres Chimères contestaient sa revendication. Luttant contre l'envie de caresser son large torse nu avec ses mains tremblantes, Sasha se força à incliner la tête et à lever un sourcil. « Si audacieux pour un jeune loup qui vient de trouver ses crocs. » Les autres mâles rugirent de rire. Ignorant leurs railleries, les yeux de Zev pétillèrent et il se pencha encore plus près, la barbe naissante sur sa mâchoire la chatouillant alors qu'il souriait. « Si audacieuse pour une humaine qui connaît déjà le plaisir de souffler mon nom. » Elle frissonna lorsque ses dents effleurèrent son oreille. ***** Juste quelques jours après que Sasha se soit donnée à son amour d'enfance, il disparut. Cinq ans plus tard, dans une sombre rue de la ville, Zev revint - avec le danger à ses trousses. Zev est une Chimère : Moitié humain, moitié loup. Fabriqué dans un laboratoire de recherche sécurisé, son existence est un secret. Mais quand les hommes puissants qui l'ont créé tentent de tuer la seule femme qui ait jamais fait chanter son cœur, Zev rompt leur laisse et l'emmène dans le monde brutal et caché des clans Chimères. Déchirée entre l'attraction magnétique de son premier amour et la douloureuse trahison de sa disparition, Sasha essaie de garder Zev à distance. Mais lorsqu'ils atteignent cet univers mystérieux, Zev découvre qu'en son absence, les humains ont pris le contrôle et ont volé presque toutes les femelles. Les Chimères meurent - et Zev n'est plus l'Alpha. Maintenant, Zev doit combattre son propre peuple pour gagner le droit de s'accoupler avec son unique amour. Peut-il lui prouver que sa promesse de longue date de protéger son cœur, ainsi que son corps, était vraie ? Ou bien les humains traverseront-ils les mondes pour chasser le loup et séparer les amants pour toujours ?

Rose Cookies

So yeah. Rose Cookies. This isn’t your usual power fantasy or deep character study. It’s just… something that came out of my brain—and maybe yours too. Keanu, the guy you’re reading about, isn’t really a person. He doesn’t have a personality, no tragic backstory, no moral compass. He’s just there. Walking, talking, smiling. And then suddenly—violence. Out of nowhere. Why? Because sometimes, life just pushes people. You keep swallowing the little stuff—awkward silences, fake laughs, getting ignored, getting talked over, being the nice one. Over and over. And then one day, something in you snaps… or at least, wants to. Not gonna lie, a lot of these scenes are born from real stories. Not the stabbings, obviously, but the feelings. Stuff I’ve gone through. Stuff people have told me. That quiet, helpless frustration when you just sit there thinking, “Why do I keep letting this happen?” And maybe, for a second, your brain throws out the worst possible solution just to see how it feels. Keanu is that. He’s not a person. He’s an impulse. He’s what happens when all that built-up patience finally tips. Some chapters will be hilarious. Some will be disturbing. Some will make zero sense. That’s intentional. Life doesn’t stick to genre rules, so neither does this. Thanks for reading. Or hate-reading. Or doomscrolling (I sincerely doubt that) your way into this mess. I’m writing it like a fever dream and trying to surprise myself, so if it gets weird, don’t say I didn’t warn you. – Sincerely, Showerhead

Broken WORLD

"Broken WORLD" by Lapis L. Lazuli. --Timeframe: 2097. --Stage: Kowareta Sekai Island, Pacific Ocean, Earth. "Broken WORLD" is set on Kowareta Sekai Island, a mysterious place where inhabitants are trapped by a barrier that prevents them from leaving. The island is divided into districts controlled by powerful clans, each with unique abilities derived from a special energy called KAN (Keino Area Notice). The story follows Felix Fletcher, a former juvenile delinquent who seeks to escape the island and explore the world beyond. Felix's journey begins after his release from a correctional center, where he reunites with his family and best friend, Damian Denver. However, his life takes a dramatic turn when Michaelis Miller, leader of the powerful Emo-Jin Empire, attempts to kill him. This event sets off a chain of battles and alliances as Felix forms his own war clan, the Fletcher Clan: Remastered, to counter the threats against him. As the story unfolds, Felix faces numerous challenges, including a massive bounty on his head and a complex web of clan politics. He discovers that his father, Frederick Fletcher, is behind the bounty and seeks to create a ruthless warrior lineage. This revelation leads to a climactic battle where Felix and his allies confront his father. Throughout the narrative, Felix's character evolves significantly, particularly after the tragic loss of Damian, who is later resurrected in a surprising twist. The story also explores themes of power, loyalty, and the true nature of the island's barrier, which begins to crumble at the end, hinting at larger mysteries to be uncovered in future volumes. The narrative is enriched by a diverse cast of characters, each with their own motivations and backstories, and is narrated primarily by President Raegan Ricardo Rodrigo, with occasional shifts to first-person perspectives and interventions from an omniscient AI named Shatter A.I. Overall, "Broken WORLD" is a gripping tale of survival, friendship, and self-discovery set against a backdrop of magical powers and clan warfare. ("Broken WORLD" is the third book in The "What is Humanity?/Lapis L. Lazuli" Lore and the first novel of the four-part "WORLD" Novel Series by Lapis L. Lazuli).

Reincarnated as an Orphaned Dragon!

Facing the imminent danger of a demon invasion, the Prazia kingdom establishes orphanages to uncover hidden talents among its populace. Lena, now known as Lava, is reincarnated as a dragon and becomes an orphan after her mother goes missing. However, not every fantasy world is filled with raw plot armor. Reality can be difficult, and Lava is not immune to being a pawn in the plans of others. Features a unique word-based magic system, no skills or levels. ----- Sorry for how slow burning and random the beginning chapters are, I just kind of made up plausible nonsense to keep the story flowing. It wasn't until about ch.23 where inspiration struck and the story really started to pick up speed. The main reason things started so slow is that I don't like writing highly unlikely events to drive plot like an mc saving someone that just happens to be a noble. Keep in mind this has a more realistic theme than most isekai stories, even with power mc is not untouchable and actually has to make difficult choices. Sometimes, reality can be dark. It's also not a wake up as a dragon and then fight endless monsters kind of story either, I felt that was already done too many times and chose to go for a more intrigue and life themed story. This is my first work, and I think it's rather good for a first story. Trying to develop my writing style on this. First chapters might come off as kind of rushed, I didn't spend much time on backstory and what happened to her mother I just kind of rushed mc to her new family and that really came back on me later on in the story. Cover is AI generated (Except for the title)

VA: 'DIAMØND TO RAIN'

VA: DIAMOND TO RAIN follows Satou Senji, a young student who roams the streets of Japan at night, exploring abandoned places and encountering other individuals who, like him, feel like outcasts in society. Set in 2009, the story dives deep into the lives of misfits—people who are disconnected from mainstream society, each with their own struggles and reasons for feeling like they don’t belong. Satou’s solitary hobby of wandering at night brings him into contact with a diverse group of people, each with their own backstory. Along the way, he meets several girls who, like him, have chosen to stay away from society or are living in isolation due to trauma, societal rejection, or personal choices. The story paints a picture of these lost souls finding connection in each other amidst the backdrop of Japan’s urban decay. One of the key figures in Satou's journey is Kanako Ryoyo, a 19-year-old girl who is a victim of human trafficking. She’s tough, cold, and emotionally guarded, but after escaping her captors, she ends up hiding in an abandoned asylum, where Satou first finds her. Their connection grows as Satou helps her find refuge at his home. Kanako is a complex character—nonchalant and blunt on the outside, yet deeply affectionate in her own way. Her trauma, mixed with Satou’s kindness, leads to a slow but steady emotional connection. As the story unfolds, Satou and the people he meets face personal challenges, emotional dilemmas, and moments of redemption. The narrative explores themes of broken families, societal rejection, the psychological toll of isolation, and the complexities of human emotions. The presence of illegal activities like human trafficking and underground bars also adds a dark layer to the story, setting a gritty tone for the series of encounters Satou has with those seeking meaning outside of society's rigid expectations. With a strong focus on psychology, adventure, and romance, VA: DIAMOND TO RAIN is a deeply emotional journey of outcasts, exploring how they navigate the world while searching for a place where they belong.
