Phool Dei Festival

This text has no male lead, no romance. The female lead is slightly timid in the first volume, a bit infatuated in the second, and from the third volume onwards... life seems like a Siberian Husky. Below is the sequence of volumes, if there are chapters missing, they're probably blocked. 1 Who's best at murder and dismemberment? Look in the suitcase for jackals and wolves. 2 I can handle tutoring, even rocks can be turned to gold. 3 Freshman military training brings tears, Changan loves to eat smoked sausage. 4 A thousand miles of predestined marriage hangs by a thread, whether it's good or bad all depends on fate. 5 My idol is the absolute best, the idol chose me to be their partner. 6 The boss behind the scenes is here, doing whatever they want without logic. 7 Ghost Festival inspiration comes late, helplessly put here. 8 Official advancement and wealth cost a child's life, a good son leaps like a carp over the dragon gate. 9 A trip to the plastic surgery clinic, all the fat is shaken off. 11 Who in the Human World can resist a beauty? Run out of roman numerals, use numbers instead. 11 Turtles may live long, but still dread the end, the characters fear a 404. 12 The local zombie looks handsome, cries out adorably when opening its mouth. 13 One dance captures the city, the beauty of the past fades away. There's a lot more, too tired to write the summary...

Leonardo Salvius Nox was born to die in the mines—just another faceless soul carved from the stone of oppression, disease, and lost dreams. But when a mysterious stranger gifts him a glowing stone at a moonlit festival, Leonardo is thrust out of his grim reality and into a realm where his life was fiction, death is negotiable, and trauma awaiting him. Now labeled the [Uninvited Guest], Leonardo becomes an anomaly—a living glitch in the Museum and Realms. Thrust into the surreal halls of the Museum of Narratives, he discovers with only a fading past and a fractured identity, he is assigned a purpose he never asked for: become a Tour Guide Practical Officer and dive into the Deplorable era; but before that—a "quick" tutorial. But the deeper he journeys, the clearer it becomes—this isn’t about fixing stories. It’s about rewriting his own.

Cinco anos atrás, Qiao Nian foi vítima de um plano de sua irmã, Qiao Xin. Após passar uma noite com um estranho, Qiao Nian engravidou. Ela não sabia quem era o pai da criança e acabou dando à luz a um natimorto. Sob as maquinações de sua mãe e irmã, Qiao Nian foi despojada de suas ações no Grupo Qiao e enviada para um hospital psiquiátrico. Cinco anos mais tarde, sua irmã mais nova, Qiao Xin, estava prestes a se casar com o Segundo Jovem Mestre da família Gu. Ele tinha fama de ser extremamente feio. No dia em que nasceu, o médico previu que ele não viveria mais de vinte anos. Sua mãe não suportava ver Qiao Xin casar com uma pessoa dessas e pensou em Qiao Nian, que ainda estava trancada no hospital psiquiátrico. Durante a noite, Qiao Nian foi tirada do hospital para substituir Qiao Xin em seu casamento com a família Gu. Sua mãe disse, "É uma boa coisa que Qiao Nian, essa inútil, possa substituir Xin'er e ser uma viúva viva na família Gu. Se Xin'er casasse com aquela família, eu ficaria arrasada." Qiao Xin disse, "Mãe, não fale assim da Irmã. Se não fosse por ela, eu não saberia o que fazer. Só estou preocupada que a Irmã não aceite." Seu pai disse, "Xin'er, você é bondosa demais. Esqueceu como Qiao Nian te difamou há cinco anos? Ela não tem autocontrole. Engravidou antes do casamento e ainda deu à luz a uma criança natimorta. Estamos sendo bons o suficiente ao deixá-la se casar com alguém da prestigiosa família Gu! Que direito ela tem de ser exigente?" Qiao Nian debochou. Na época, a conspiração contra ela só tinha dado certo por causa de uma combinação estranha de fatores, fazendo-a sofrer. Ela ia se vingar de todos eles! Todos pensavam que suas ações eram fruto de uma combinação de mentalidade de perdedora e doença mental, mas mal sabiam eles que esse casamento seria uma união poderosa, tão impactante quanto Marte colidindo com a Terra! Aproveitando suas habilidades brilhantes em medicina, Qiao Nian fez várias pessoas desprezíveis e canalhas engolirem suas palavras. Num piscar de olhos, suas múltiplas identidades chocaram o mundo à medida que cada uma delas foi exposta. Acontece que ela era rica o suficiente para rivalizar com um país! Depois, o Segundo Jovem Mestre Gu colocou um par de miniaturas clones de Qiao Nian diante dela. Diante dessas duas crianças que se pareciam com ela e Gu Zhou, Qiao Nian piscou em choque. "Quando foi que eu dei à luz aos seus filhos?"

There are times—far too many times—when you feel that uncontrollable urge to kill someone. For Kaya, this… this was exactly that moment. “Repeat what you just said?” She’d seen hell on the battlefield—second-in-command of a military unit, dodging bullets, dragging traitors by the collar, and coming out alive with grit under her nails. But nothing, absolutely nothing, prepared her for the sight of her spineless husband flirting with her own sister. Right in front of her. “I could never marry a barbarian like you. The one I... I like is Meera—” Blah blah. The same pitiful nonsense again. You think—what could possibly be worse than this? And then, right on cue, your idiotic sister chimes in, completely serious, “I just poisoned you.” Wow. BANG. Before anyone could even react, Meera collapsed. Dead. Her so-called husband gasped like a fish dragged out of water. “Y-you…” He dropped to his knees, staring at Kaya like he was seeing a monster rise from the dark. “You killed your sister?! How could y—?” BANG. Second bullet. Same spot. He dropped like a puppet with its strings cut. Silence. ... Just when Kaya thought her story had finally reached its bitter end, the universe—no, god himself—decided to throw in one last, ridiculous twist. “Wife… wife, didn’t you say you were gonna eat me? Why’d you stop?” A snake beast, ridiculously charming and glowing like some immortal fantasy, clung to her, eyes gleaming. Another voice interrupted. “Shut up! My wife wants to cuddle me now—” A sparrow beastman leapt into her arms, like that made any sense. “Hic… wife, don’t you want me anymore?” A panda-like beastman sat beside her, huge, sniffly, and wronged like a child abandoned at a festival. Sitting in the middle of all this, Kaya was absolutely dumbfounded. ‘When the hell did all of this even start?’

In the mystical realm where gods weave the very fabric of existence, a cataclysm unfolds. Imagine, if you will, the celestial tapestry torn asunder. Satakal, the ancient serpent deity who wove the threads of time, lies slain by an enigmatic sorcerer—a wizard whose motives remain veiled in shadow. As Satakal’s divine essence seeps away, the world trembles. Time itself unstabilizes, like a delicate spell unraveling in a tempest. A mysterious ailment afflicts mortals, pulling them from the temporal flow. These afflicted souls form tribes and cults, their minds unmoored, their bodies adrift between moments. They rise against the once-mighty kingdoms, their allegiance to chaos and entropy. And before this turmoil, Alron, a humble lad from the tranquil village of Wolfur nestled within the spine mountains, faces an extraordinary twist of fate. His days were once filled with village festivals and stolen glances at Freya, his heart’s desire. But destiny, capricious as a fairy’s laugh, intervenes. Alron and Freya, without warning, hurtle forward through the eons. Two hundred years hence, they find themselves strangers in a world bereft of familiarity. Their quest: to mend the fractured strands of time, to restore balance, and perhaps, just perhaps, to reclaim lost love and forgotten memories.

A young British child, Frederick, who was adopted by Portuguese sailors finds himself struggling for survival on the shores of West Africa. He soon discovered that the lands he found himself in were troubled by the aura of ancient cosmic darkness, Okunkun, that instilled hate against the indigenes of Africa in other races as their punishment for banishing it from its reign on the world. The remnants of Okunkun’s minions, Egbe Okunkun, commence a plot to bring back their glory days by attacking the Olodumare Festival, an iconic festival celebrated between the Yorubas, Igbos and Hausa in honour of their historic victory against Okunkun. Yet to recover from the shock of the attack, a mystical war broke out between the deities of Olodumare and the ancient Benin Kingdom when their spy, Warewa, discovered a secret slave trade allegiance between the Benin Kingdom, and Prince Henry the Navigator, son of a Portuguese Monarch, with Egbe Okunkun at the heart of it. Frederick gets caught in an unimaginable battle between the deities of Olodumare who swore to protect their people from Okunkun’s hate, the Benin kingdom, and Egbe Okunkun. Buoyed by their duty to prevent hate from destroying their land, the deities of Olodumare made it their duty to ensure that people from the outside world had no access to their lands. When Frederick’s presence on their land became known to them at the end of the battle, they were torn between letting him live, being a child, and the fear that he would succumb to the hate of Okunkun and be a danger to them all. Frederick builds a bond with the son of a powerful deity, Ifaromi who was convinced of his innocence and will for good. All hell broke loose when the plot of Egbe Okunkun bore fruit and the very darkness they sought to protect themselves against threatened to rise once more with Frederick at the heart of it all.

When childhood friends Ravi and Sneha (nicknamed Aami) reunite after years apart, it’s not for a grand reunion or romance—it’s to keep a promise made one Diwali night long ago: to travel together and see the world, starting with the unexplored beauty of Northeast India. Ravi, still grieving the recent loss of his mother, finds himself numb, directionless, and buried under the weight of unspoken sadness. Sneha, grounded, funny, and full of warmth, pushes him to keep the promise. Together, they pack into a van—with cycles strapped to the back—and begin a summer journey across lush landscapes, rain-soaked villages, waterfalls, hidden festivals, and kitchens full of unforgettable food. From Ziro Valley to Shillong, Aizawl to Loktak Lake, they meet strangers with quiet stories, eat way too many momos, argue over chilli chutneys, and slowly come to terms with the lives they’ve lived—and the people they’ve lost. But this isn’t a romance. It’s about friendship, healing, and the spaces grief and laughter occupy together. It's a journey through memory, through childhood, and through the places that still feel like home—even when home is gone. As Ravi comes to understand what his late mother’s quiet strength meant, and what it means to really keep a promise, the road finally leads them to a still, shining lake where everything comes full circle.

I want to run so hard that not even the wind can reach me. I want my lungs to hurt so bad they're about to burst. I want to feel my heartbeat accelerate from zero to one hundred.

The lights and the roar of the fireworks prevented his voice from reaching his girlfriend's ears, who stared at him in amazement while holding a hand that wasn't his.

She was never meant to matter. Until she became the spark that could shatter an entire world. Rory has always lived at the bottom of the pack—an orphaned omega, overlooked, unloved, and invisible. She expected the Moon Festival to be just another night spent watching from the shadows. Instead, it became the moment everything changed. When a rogue wolf attacks, Rory doesn’t run. She leaps into the fray to save a child—and in that instant, her first shift explodes from within her. But this is no ordinary transformation. She doesn’t just shift. She awakens. Before a stunned crowd, Rory kills a rogue mid-air with the fury and grace of an Alpha... and draws the attention of the last wolves anyone would expect: the Alpha’s triplet sons. Kael — the heir with haunted eyes. Thorne — the untamed warrior with a heart of fire. Riven — the ruthless tactician who trusts no one. One mate would’ve been impossible. But all three? It’s not fate. It’s a prophecy. And a curse. “Three sons. One moon. One mate. Choose wrong, and the pack will fall.” As forbidden bonds pull her toward each brother, Rory’s body begins to change in ways no wolf ever should. Magic pulses beneath her skin. Dreams become warnings. And her wolf—once silent—begins to whisper secrets no one else can hear. Rory isn’t just special. She’s Gateborn—a living key to a sealed realm of ancient power. A lineage thought long dead is awakening in her blood… and it’s tearing the world open. As darkness rises, rogue wolves return wielding unfamiliar magic, and betrayal brews within the pack’s heart, Rory is caught between love and destruction, prophecy and power. To choose one mate could doom the others. To love them all might doom them all. And the greatest threat isn’t the curse, the prophecy, or the rising shadows. It’s Rory herself. Because she’s not sure if she was born to save this world... Or end it.
