The Undead's Personal Slave

Samantha never expected to find magic in her hometown, let alone in a dimly lit bar on a rainy Tuesday night. Yet here she was, perched on a barstool at the Black Swan, her world about to tilt on its axis. The air thrummed with an otherworldly energy she couldn't quite place. Ethereal dancers moved like smoke across the floor, their bodies fluid and mesmerizing. As Samantha nursed her drink, she felt the weight of curious stares prickling her skin. That's when she saw him. Marcus. A name she didn't know yet, but one that would soon be etched into her very soul. Their eyes locked across the crowded room, and Samantha's breath caught in her throat. He moved with predatory grace, all lean muscle and barely restrained power. Their first interaction was as intoxicating as it was bewildering. One moment, he was her gallant protector, rescuing her from an overly aggressive drunk. The next, his eyes hardened to chips of ice as he snarled, "Stupid girl," before melting into the shadows. Samantha's mind reeled, but her body hummed with an excitement she couldn't explain. Little did she know, this encounter was merely the first step into a world beyond her wildest fantasies – a realm where vampires ruled the night and pain blurred exquisitely with pleasure. As she delved deeper into this hidden society, Samantha found herself drawn to the intoxicating blend of power, submission, and supernatural allure. The crack of a whip, the whisper of leather, the exquisite sting of fangs – each sensation pushed her boundaries and ignited desires she never knew existed. But with every ecstatic high came the sobering reality of danger. Vampire politics were as deadly as they were intricate, and Samantha soon realized she was a pawn in a game where the stakes were life, death, and eternal servitude. As she left the Black Swan that night, Samantha couldn't shake the feeling that she stood on the precipice of something life-changing. She had no idea how right she was, or how deeply she would fall into a passionate, dangerous dance with forces beyond her imagination. The real question was: in this world where pleasure and peril intertwined so intimately, would she emerge empowered... or lose herself completely?

``` Konten Dewasa- Berperingkat 18+ (Tanpa pemerkosaan) "Kamu terlihat kesepian dan... yah..." "Yah?" sang Alfa memberinya senyum meremehkan. "Patah.

Dan dengan demikian, saya siap untuk berperang dalam lebih banyak pertempuran lagi jika itu menjanjikan apa yang saya inginkan," kata Alfa Maverick. "Dan apa yang kamu inginkan?" Tanya dia dengan senyum manis. "Kematian. Kematian bagi semua penjahat atas apa yang mereka lakukan padaku," kata Alfa Maverick, menatap gadis yang menjadi kaku di sampingnya. "Kamu bukan penjahat, kan?" Alfa Maverick menatap mata memikatnya, tangannya mengelus pipinya, membuatnya tersenyum canggung.

Bête Alpha et sa Luna Maudite

``` Contenu Mature - Interdit aux moins de 18 ans (Pas de viol) "Tu as l'air seul et, eh bien..." "Eh bien ?" L'alpha lui offrit un sourire condescendant. "Brisé. Comme quelqu'un qui a livré beaucoup de batailles. Quelqu'un qui a été blessé." Dit-elle. "C'est vrai. Ainsi, je suis prêt à livrer encore plus de batailles si cela promet ce que je désire," dit l'Alpha Maverick. "Et que désires-tu ?" Demanda-t-elle avec un doux sourire. "La mort. La mort de tous les voyous pour ce qu'ils m'ont fait," dit Alpha Maverick, regardant la fille qui se raidit à côté de lui. "Tu n'es pas un voyou, n'est-ce pas ?" Alpha Maverick plongea son regard dans ses yeux envoûtants, sa main caressant ses joues, la faisant sourire maladroitement. Elle était en effet un rebelle, et pas n'importe quel rebelle, mais un recherché par le monde entier. ~~~~~~ "Moi, Valencia Brooklyn, je rejette Tyler Anderson comme mon âme sœur destinée. Je préférerais accepter la mort plutôt qu'un compagnon déloyal." Ce furent les mots exacts qui changèrent sa vie. Puisque ce monde de loups-garous ne pouvait l'accepter en tant qu'oméga et l'absence de loup, elle décida de faire exactement la même chose. Elle est devenue un rebelle que tout le monde a commencé à craindre et à rechercher. Un rebelle qui tuait d'autres rebelles, volait les gens, rejetait un alpha, trompait le conseil et surtout, vivait parmi les humains en enfreignant toutes les lois et normes. Que se passera-t-il lorsque quelqu'un du conseil confiera son cas anonyme à l'alpha le plus fort du monde ? Un alpha encore plus fort que le fils du roi Alpha ? Comment va-t-elle se sauver d'un alpha qui a juré de tuer tous les voyous pour venger ce qu'ils lui ont fait ? Comment Maverick Aurelius attrapera-t-il ce rebelle mystérieux qui n'a pas d'odeur ? Quand ils se sont rencontrés pour la première fois, il aurait dû la tuer, mais comment était-il censé la reconnaître alors qu'elle était juste un chat ? Valencia ne s'est jamais transformée en loup car elle était maudite pour être une métamorphe. Comment l'alpha reconnaîtra-t-il le rebelle dans le chat qui a développé l'étrange habitude de venir dans sa chambre et de jouer avec ses affaires ? ~~~~~ P.S.

Fera Alfa e Sua Luna Amaldiçoada

Conteúdo Maduro - Classificação 18+ (Sem estupro) "Você parece solitária e, bem..." "Bem?" O Alfa deu a ela um sorriso condescendente. "Quebrada. Como alguém que lutou muitas batalhas. Alguém que foi ferido." Ela disse. "É verdade. E assim, estou pronto para lutar ainda mais batalhas se isso prometer o que eu quero," disse Alfa Maverick. "E o que você quer?" Ela perguntou com um doce sorriso. "Morte. Morte de todos os renegados pelo que eles fizeram comigo," disse Alfa Maverick, olhando para a garota que se tornou tensa ao lado dele. "Você não é um renegado, é?" Alfa Maverick olhou em seus olhos encantadores, sua mão acariciando suas bochechas, fazendo-a sorrir constrangida. Ela era de fato uma renegada, e não apenas uma renegada normal, mas uma procurada pelo mundo inteiro. ~~~~~~ "Eu, Valência Brooklyn, rejeito Tyler Anderson como meu companheiro destinado. Prefiro aceitar a morte a um companheiro desleal." Essas foram as exatas palavras que mudaram sua vida. Uma vez que este mundo dos lobisomens não podia aceitá-la por ser uma ômega sem ter um lobo, ela decidiu fazer exatamente a mesma coisa. Ela se tornou uma renegada que todos começaram a temer e procurar. Uma renegada que matava outros renegados, roubava pessoas, rejeitava um alfa, enganava o conselho e, mais importante, vivia entre os humanos enquanto quebrava todas as leis e normas. O que acontecerá quando alguém do conselho passar o seu caso anônimo para o alfa mais forte do mundo? Um alfa ainda mais forte que o filho do Rei Alfa? Como ela se salvará de um alfa que jurou matar todos os renegados para vingar o que fizeram com ele? Como Maverick Aurelius pegará essa renegada misteriosa que não tem cheiro? Quando eles se encontrarem pela primeira vez, ele deveria tê-la matado, mas como ele deveria reconhecê-la quando ela era apenas uma gata? Valência nunca se transformou em seu lobo porque estava amaldiçoada a ser uma metamorfa. Como o alfa reconhecerá a renegada na gata que desenvolveu o estranho hábito de entrar em seu quarto e brincar com suas coisas? ~~~~~ P.S. Esta é a minha segunda inscrição no WSA 2024.

Bestia Alfa y su Luna Maldita

``` —Pareces solitaria y bueno... —dijo ella. —¿Bueno? —El Alfa le dio una sonrisa condescendiente. —Rota. Como alguien que ha luchado muchas batallas. Alguien que ha sido herido —dijo ella. —Es verdad. Y por eso, estoy listo para luchar aún más batallas si eso promete lo que quiero —dijo Alfa Maverick. —¿Y qué quieres? —preguntó ella con una dulce sonrisa. —Muerte. La muerte de todos los pícaros por lo que me hicieron —dijo Alfa Maverick, mirando a la chica que se tensó a su lado. —Tú no eres un pícaro, ¿verdad? —Alfa Maverick miró a sus encantadores ojos, su mano acariciando sus mejillas, haciéndola sonreír incómodamente. Ella era en efecto un pícaro, y no cualquier pícaro normal, sino uno buscado por todo el mundo. ~~~~~~ —Yo, Valencia Brooklyn, rechazo a Tyler Anderson como mi compañero predestinado. Prefiero aceptar la muerte antes que a un compañero desleal —Estas fueron las palabras exactas que cambiaron su vida. Dado que este mundo de los hombres lobo no podía aceptarla por ser una omega y no tener un lobo, decidió hacer exactamente lo mismo. Se convirtió en un pícaro que todos empezaron a temer y buscar.

Cuando se encontraron por primera vez, él debería haberla matado, pero ¿cómo iba a reconocerla si ella era apenas un gato?

Das Biest Alpha und seine verfluchte Luna

Reifer Inhalt - Bewertung 18+ (keine Vergewaltigung) "Du siehst einsam und gut aus..." "Nun?" Der Alpha schenkte ihr ein herablassendes Lächeln. "Gebrochen. Wie jemand, der viele Schlachten geschlagen hat. Jemand, der verletzt worden ist." Sagte sie. "Das ist wahr. Und deshalb bin ich bereit, noch mehr Schlachten zu schlagen, wenn es das verspricht, was ich will", sagte Alpha Maverick. "Und was willst du?" fragte sie mit einem süßen Lächeln. "Den Tod. Den Tod aller Schurken für das, was sie mir angetan haben", sagte Alpha Maverick und sah das Mädchen an, das sich neben ihm versteifte. "Du bist doch kein Schurke, oder?" Alpha Maverick blickte in ihre bezaubernden Augen, seine Hand streichelte ihre Wangen und brachte sie zu einem unbeholfenen Lächeln. Sie war in der Tat eine Schurkin, und zwar nicht irgendeine Schurkin, sondern eine, die von der ganzen Welt gesucht wurde. ~~~~~~ "Ich, Valencia Brooklyn, lehne Tyler Anderson als meinen schicksalhaften Gefährten ab. Ich würde lieber den Tod akzeptieren als einen untreuen Partner." Dies waren genau die Worte, die ihr Leben veränderten. Da diese Werwolfwelt nicht akzeptieren konnte, dass sie ein Omega war und keinen Wolf hatte, beschloss sie, genau das Gleiche zu tun. Sie wurde ein Schurke, den alle fürchteten und suchten. Ein Schurke, der andere Schurken tötete, Menschen bestahl, einen Alpha zurückwies, den Rat täuschte und vor allem unter den Menschen lebte und dabei alle Gesetze und Normen brach. Was wird passieren, wenn jemand aus dem Rat ihren anonymen Fall dem stärksten Alpha der Welt übergibt? Einem Alpha, der noch stärker ist als der Sohn des Alphakönigs? Wie wird sie sich vor einem Alpha retten, der geschworen hat, alle Schurken zu töten, um sich für das zu rächen, was sie mit ihm gemacht haben? Wie wird Maverick Aurelius diesen mysteriösen Schurken fangen, der keine Fährte hat? Als sie sich das erste Mal treffen, hätte er sie töten sollen, aber wie hätte er sie erkennen sollen, wenn sie nur eine Katze war? Valencia hat sich nie in einen Wolf verwandelt, weil sie verflucht war, ein Gestaltwandler zu sein. Wie wird das Alphatier den Schurken in der Katze erkennen, die eine seltsame Angewohnheit entwickelt hat, in sein Zimmer zu kommen und mit seinen Sachen zu spielen? ~~~~~ P.S.

In the end, Celeste is left standing as a symbol of resilience and survival in the face of impossible choices. Her life, riddled with tragedy and triumph, is both an inspiration and a cautionary tale.

Beast Alpha and His Cursed Luna

Mature Content- Rated18+ (No rape) "You look lonely and well..." "Well?" The Alpha gave her a condescending smile. "Broken. Like someone who has fought a lot of battles. Someone who has been hurt." She said. "It's true. And thus, I am ready to fight even more battles if it promises what I want," Alpha Maverick said. "And what do you want?" She asked with a sweet smile. "Death. Death of all the rogues for what they did to me," Alpha Maverick said, looking at the girl who became stiff beside him. "You are not a rogue, are you?" Alpha Maverick looked into her enchanting eyes, his hand caressing her cheeks, making her smile awkwardly. She was indeed a rogue, and not just any normal rogue, but one wanted by the entire world. ~~~~~~ "I, Valencia Brooklyn, reject Tyler Anderson as my fateful mate. I would rather accept death than a disloyal mate." These were the exact words that changed her life. Since this werewolf world couldn't accept her for being an omega and not having a wolf, she decided to do the exact same thing. She became a rogue that everyone started fearing and looking for. A rogue who killed other rogues, stole from people, rejected an alpha, deceived the council, and most importantly, lived among humans while breaking all laws and norms. What will happen when someone from the council gives her anonymous case to the strongest alpha in the world? An alpha even stronger than the Alpha King's son? How will she save herself from an alpha who has vowed to kill all the rogues to avenge what they did with him? How will Maverick Aurelius catch this mysterious rogue who doesn't have a scent? When they first meet, he should've killed her, but how was he supposed to recognize her when she was a mere cat? Valencia never turned into her wolf because she was cursed to be a shapeshifter. How will the alpha recognise the rogue in the cat who has developed a weird habit of coming into his room and playing with his things? ~~~~~ P.S. This is my second WSA 2024 entry.

GENESIS : ENTROPY OF CHAOS

Evalyn was once a genius scientist, a pioneer whose groundbreaking research led her civilization—the Schandorian people—into the vastness of space. Her discoveries into the mysterious veil of dark matter promised to unlock unimaginable power, but the price was steep. Her experiments cost her life, and she was reborn into a world she could never have fathomed. Now, as Princess Regellia Aureliues Ebonhart, heir to the Ebonhart Empire—one of the most powerful forces in the mortal realm—Regalia awakens with fragmented memories of her past life. With the help of a unique system that binds her soul, she embarks on a new journey, not only to seek immortality but to perfect herself beyond the boundaries of the universe she now inhabits. As she ascends through the realms, refining her cultivation and wielding powers beyond comprehension, Regalia becomes aware of subtle, invisible forces that stretch far beyond the confines of her empire. Strange disruptions in the fabric of reality—the mysterious vibrations of ancient laws and fleeting moments of instability—suggest that her journey is tied to something much greater than mortal ambition. A universe layered with secrets and hidden dimensions begins to unravel before her, but no one can say if this is a gift or a curse. Torn between the pursuit of power and the elusive truth of her origins, Regalia begins to question: What if the very forces of existence are manipulating her, and the quest for perfection might be nothing more than a cosmic game? As she seeks to unlock the true nature of her rebirth, she discovers that her actions could shape not just the future of her realm, but the fate of countless worlds hidden across the multiverse—worlds that may or may not be ready for her touch. GENESIS:ENTROPY OF CHAOS is a story of cultivation, hidden truths, and the pursuit of perfection. If you enjoy tales of power, mysteries that transcend the mortal plane, and a journey through the very fabric of reality itself, then step into a universe where even fate cannot be trusted.

How I Recovered My Lost Funds: A Lifesaving Experience.

At first, everything seemed legitimate. The communication was smooth, professional, and convincing. I paid the required amount, and everything appeared to be progressing well. However, things soon took a turn. After the initial payment, I was constantly pressured to pay more, often under the guise of additional fees or "emergency" charges. Each time I complied, they asked for even more money. Suspicious, I began to investigate their background, but they provided excuses for every question I raised. Eventually, I realized something was wrong and requested a full refund. That’s when everything went downhill. They locked me out of my account, and no matter how many emails I sent or how many times I tried to reach out, I never got a response. It became clear that I had been scammed.
