Itachi Happier

She accidentally barged into his room interrupting his peaceful time, and since then, he took great pleasure in tormenting her. Hearing about his engagement, she crashed his engagement party and clung to his arm, intending to create a fuss. Unexpectedly, he suddenly grabbed her hand and announced loudly, "The woman I want to marry is her!" She opened her eyes wide, her mischievous plan effectively backfiring and causing her nothing but trouble! How terrible! She needed to escape, but it was too late! The angrier she got, the happier he became, as he held her and publicly showered her with kisses. "Mr. President! But the man I want to marry is him!!" She pointed at her beloved man not far away. "..." The room turned into total chaos, and the president was not pleased.

The world is diverse and flourishing. Humanity has changed, and with it, brought in a new era of prosperity. Males and females still exist, but the spectrum from which humanity is cast has broadened. With the introduction of alpha, omega, and beta, humanity has evolved even further. In such a word, Dr. Andrew Knox, known environmental researcher, is happy being a beta male. It has made his life easier by being middle ground, and as much as some wish he was one way or the other, he’s happy being who he is. Thriving even. He works in a world renowned research facility. He makes friends easily, and his projects are always funded. He even found someone who he thinks he could end up marrying if things continue in the right direction. That, and the vacant house next to his apartment building gets bought by a new neighbour. A cute, but cautious omega who relies on Andrew as a beta for help. Andrew couldn’t be happier. He loves being a helper, and loves when people rely on him. All in all, Andrew really thinks he has everything made. That is, until a research project with shoddy data is thrown back into his face that he has no recollection of working on, and all of his reputation disintegrates in between one heartbeat and the next. Heartbroken, it isn’t until Andrew wakes up, chained to a wall that everything becomes clear. He becomes a test subject to one of the scientists that he trusted. That he expected would never harm him. The life he had known, where he was a respected researcher was ripped out from underneath him. His identity and everything he’s ever known is stolen from him from a crazed researcher who he had trusted, maybe even loved. He has to relearn who he is, what he is, from scratch. Thankfully, he has one person in his corner. He just never expected to have to rely on someone whose shoulders were so small. This is an a/b/o story, and will have those tropes associated with it. I hope you enjoy :)

Looking back, maybe it wasn't all that bad. Sometimes, I wonder if life would have been better for us all if Eliza and I had never discovered the truth. Maybe that's selfish. But we might have been happier-or at least, that's what I'd like to believe. Magic is a mystery, and not much is known about it even today. it flows through the world, choosing its own vessels. I wish that was all I had to tell you, but my story is darker and filled with mystery and loss. My name is Maddox, and I should have never left the orphanage."

Can she trust the new version of Aiden, or is he still the same boy who thrived on her fear? As her defenses crumble, Ellie faces the most terrifying question of all: Is she foolish to risk her heart for the one person who once broke it beyond repair?

The world's messed up. Monsters started falling from the sky. Flesh-eating creatures that almost wiped out Humanity.But then, people began to awaken strange abilities—Gifts, they called them. Supernatural powers that gave us a fighting chance. With these new abilities, we fought back, and for a while, it seemed like we were winning. Life slowly started to return to something that resembled normal. That is, until the Curses began. No one knows where they came from or why they started, but one thing was clear: they weren’t Gifts. They were something darker, twisted, as if reflecting the worst parts of humanity. People whispered that the Cursed were dangerous, unstable. Some even believed they were monsters in human skin. I used to think having a Gift would be the best thing that could ever happen to me. I dreamed of it, even. Too bad I didn’t get mine until the darkest moment of my life. And it wasn’t a Gift at all. But hey, like I said before, the world’s messed up.

For three years, i was a shadow in his life, a mere silhouette, whilst his 'white moonlight' was the radiant sun that illuminated his world. I was always at the receiving end of his disdaining stare, uncaring nature. Our marriage, just a formality for him, a mere piece of paper. I tolerated everything because my love for him was blind and all-consuming. Until that fateful night, when i was losing my sole reason of happiness, crying in agony, calling for help whilst he hurried to comfort his first love. Finally i accepted that his heart is forever closed for me. So i signed the divorce paper and slipped away, leaving the heartache behind. I've never been happier,than i am now, a year after closing that chapter. But why am i pinned under my scumbag ex-husband, his tone intense. “Quite bold of you to think that you can just up and leave, dear wife!" I smiled indifferently “it's ex-wife” His bloodshot eyes locked into mine, a chilling smile on his “I haven't signed those paper yet!”

I’m Jonah, a lawyer from Zurich, and my journey into the world of cryptocurrency began a few years ago after a client introduced me to Bitcoin. At first, I viewed it with skepticism, but as I delved deeper, I realized its potential. After mining my fortune and making strategic investments, my portfolio had grown to an impressive $700,000. I felt like a savvy investor, riding the wave of the digital currency revolution. However, my excitement turned into despair when I lost access to my wallet due to a computer crash during a routine system update. It was as if my financial future vanished in an instant. I had kept my recovery codes in a secure location, but in the chaos that followed the crash, I realized I couldn't find them. I thought I had lost everything, which was a bitter pill to swallow. As I sat there staring at my computer, I couldn’t help but joke with my colleagues that losing access to my Bitcoin was like finding out my favorite restaurant had closed permanently: “How can I invest in my future when my future has just decided to take a permanent vacation?” After weeks of fruitless attempts to recover my wallet, I was on the verge of giving up. I tried several recovery options, but nothing worked out for me. I felt like I was staring into a dark abyss with no light in sight. Just when I was ready to write off my investment, a fellow lawyer recommended VIRTUAL FUNDS RESURRECTION. Despite my initial doubts, I decided to contact them, hoping for a miracle. To my surprise, their team was not only responsive but also incredibly professional.. They quickly put my mind at ease, guiding me through the recovery process step by step. Within just a few weeks, they managed to recover my wallet and restore my funds. VIRTUAL FUNDS RESURRECTION is the real deal. They turned what felt like an insurmountable loss into a victory. If you’ve lost access to your Bitcoin, don’t hesitate to contact them; they will get you back on track. I couldn’t be happier with their service. Thanks to them, I’m back in control of my investment, ready to navigate the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrency once again.
