Moon Jihye harus menjalani nasib buruknya yang membawanya kembali bertemu dengan orang yang paling ingin ia hindari, Yoo Yongha. Lelaki itu bagaikan seekor nyamuk yang sedang kelaparan, mengelilingi manusia hingga ia bisa menghisap darah manusia untuk bertahan hidup. Kalimat itu bahkan tidak cukup untuk mendeskripsikan betapa menyebalkannya perlakuan Yongha kepada Jihye. 5 tahun ia menikmati waktu tanpa kehadiran lelaki itu dalam hidupnya, namun takdir kembali mempertemukan mereka. Lelaki itu seolah ditakdirkan untuk berada disekitar kehidupannya dan menjadikan Jihye mangsa empuk untuknya. "Apakah ini yang kau sebut dengan hidup bahagia tanpa diriku?" Yongha berbisik sangat pelan ditelinga Jihye "Apa lagi yang kau inginkan dariku!" ucap Jihye sambil berusaha mendorong kepala Yongha agar menjauh dari telinganya "5 tahun aku sengaja meninggalkanmu dan kau masih belum menemukan orang yang bisa menggantikan posisiku?" Yongha tersenyum sinis "aku yakin kau masih mencintaiku, Moon Jihye ssi" "omong kosong apa yang kau ucapkan" "Sayang sekali, istriku tidak akan tinggal diam kalau dia tau aku menemuimu"ujar Yongha merangkul bahu Jihye "Lepaskan aku!" Jihye menepis tangan kekar Yongha dari bahu nya "Wow, tidak sia-sia kau belajar jiu jitsu. Tapi bela diri apapun yang kau pelajari, tidak akan bisa menangkis bagian ini" Yongha menarik dengan kasar tubuh Jihye dan mendekatkan bibirnya dengan bibir Jihye. Ciuman sepihak itu berlangsung lama dan berhenti saat Yongha merasakan air mata Jihye dalam ciumannya. "Kau menangis?" Lelaki yang tidak ada otaknya ini menatap Jihye dengan tatapan hangat, memeluknya dan menepuk lembut bahu Jihye untuk menenangkannya. Jihye menangis dalam pelukan lelaki itu. Ciuman sepihak setelah 5 tahun itu kembali menghancurkan pertahanan yang telah dibangun oleh Jihye. Yongha kembali menemuinya setelah lelaki itu baru saja menikahi kekasih yang ia pacari setelah putus dari Jihye. Setelah ciuman ini, apa yang harus dilakukan Jihye pada hati nya?

Collision Course—where four high school friends who could barely keep their eyes open in history class suddenly find themselves racing to the corner store for no reason at all, when—bam—they get hit by a cab. But this isn’t your regular “get hit by a cab and regret life choices” situation. Nope, this is more like getting dragged into a cosmic time-fixing mess with no manual or instructions. Now, these four are stuck as “time janitors,” cleaning up the messes of the universe, but, spoiler alert, none of them are thrilled. The weirdest part? They wake up the next day like nothing happened—except, apparently, they’re now the unofficial time-savers for an invisible entity who just LOVES to throw vague, life-altering ultimatums their way. Classic Thursday, am I right? Ian, the class clown, doesn’t exactly seem ready for interdimensional travel. Claire’s too busy texting to care. Wes thinks this is one big, cosmic prank. And Nora? Well, she’s just excited to see how it all blows up. And the kicker? The world keeps moving on like nothing’s changed, even though everything is about to go completely sideways. Time’s broken, and guess who has to fix it? Yep. These poor, time-traveling teens. What could possibly go wrong?

This work incorporates many Chinese elements, making it easier for those interested in Chinese culture to understand the details. For those unfamiliar with it, reading may be a bit challenging, but they can still grasp the general direction of the story. (No harem, no clichés, no overpowered characters, no system, no mindless plot, no feel-good story. Proceed with caution.) When I thought it was just an ordinary day, I found myself captured and taken to the land of demise. When I believed that participating in endless death games was the only way to escape, I realized that people around me were beginning to awaken supernatural powers. When I assumed this place was a "land of god-making," everything started moving toward annihilation.

Centuries ago, a mysterious energy called "Mana" revolutionized society, but it led humans to face an unprecedented crisis: the "Great Fall". After centuries of intensive use of mana, flora and fauna mutated, becoming more powerful and intelligent. Confronted with this threat, humanity takes refuge in the bastions, the 21 fortresses, to survive. Humans also begin to mutate, developing greater physical and intellectual abilities, as well as special powers called "systems" and "stigmata". However, a scientist warns of an even more devastating imminent threat: insects, organized and cruel, will mutate in turn. To counter this imminent threat, humans begin to study the beasts and learn to cultivate Mana like them. Mana exercises are created to accelerate this process and copy some of the characteristics, but changing exercises is difficult and risky. As the world struggles for survival, Rin, a semi-awakened with the power to perceive everything around him, finds himself at the heart of this turmoil, determined to find his place in a world in chaos and to protect those he loves from the surrounding dangers. ***************************************** Participate in WSA 2024

But beneath her hardened exterior, she is driven by a deep, unyielding need for revenge. Years ago her sister was murdered brutally but never got justice. Now, the hunt for "The Dark"—the elusive criminal mastermind responsible for countless illegal operations—has become her only focus. The Dark is a figure whispered about in the shadows, a man whose vast network and ruthless influence make him nearly untouchable. Yet Agent Black knows that to find him is not only a mission but a chance to unearth the truth about her sister’s death and expose the corruption that has stained everything she once trusted.

Can she remain focused enough to take down The Dark, or will the shadows of her own history consume her before she gets the justice she craves? Note: The cover image isn't mine.

The mysteries surrounding his newfound ability only deepened when a strange old man claimed to have given Zhang Heng that ‘gift of time’ and recruited the young man to participate in a cryptic ‘life-changing’ game on his behalf.

I'm not the greatest author, but I plan to consistently update this project, even if I have to write significantly slower than what you typically find on this platform. (My apologies!) Below, you will find some key notes that might be nice to see before becoming invested. PACE: 1 ch/week For now, I plan to write roughly 1 chapter / week. However, this might change in the future as I acclimate to writing more frequently. (Or if this story randomly becomes very successful.) MONEY: At least first 50 ch FREE I know I just mentioned this story becoming "successful", which typically entails paying the author and bla bla bla. BUT! I like the idea of this just being my story with no hooks or lines for a while. I plan to make the greater first chunk of the story free. TRENDS: ~~Overpowered~~ Honestly, I hate the concept of things being "overpowered". It reminds me of the first time I hacked my favorite childhood videogame. (It sucked the fun out of it completely.) That being said, I want this story to involve genuine challenges that take effort or risk to overcome. GENRE: Action, Mystery I would like this story to focus primarily around Action and Mystery. There might be some mild things tossed into the fray like comedy and romance, but don't expect anything too raunchy. DISCORD: -not yet implemented- I may eventually start a discord for this story. It could make a good library for supporting lore or artwork, as well as a place for people to discuss their theories or leave feedback. For now, this discord doesn't yet exist, but I will update you here when/if that changes. OTHER STORIES: Paused A few of you may have known me from my previous stories. I know, you may be pretty bummed that I haven't updated either in a really long time. There were some pretty hefty flaws in those stories that I kind of beat myself up over. (I actually formed this story while trying to restructure the surface world for 'Reincarnated as a Haunted Machine'.) For now, this will be my only work, as the world I live in has become rather complicated in recent years. Perhaps at some point, I will return to my other works, but for the foreseeable future, this story will be my one true love.

Hemera is rejected by her one true love Crane. After that, she finds out a big truth which the Crescent moon pack has been hiding all this while and she is determined to find out the truth at any cost. Even if it means marrying a complete stranger, Elpis Kane, alpha of blood moon pack. “You never know. I might be of help.” I looked at him and inhale. He is right. he might know him. Besides there is no harm in trying. He will not actually figure out what I want to do. He looked at him with a little smile and goodness, it was so convincing. “I am looking for a certain alpha. I want him to ask me for a dance.” I spoke. I saw his eyebrows rise with doubt and surprise. He put his hand behind him. “Why? if I may ask” “It’s complicated.” “Try me.” I looked at him and he smiled. Well, what do I have to lose? “Well, he is the only one who can help me find the people I am looking for. I heard he is the most powerful alpha and is well gifted and connected. So, I need him.” Said to him. For some reason I trusted this person even if I should not. But he seems calm and powerful. Not one to talk much but one to do a lot. “So, you are going to use him?” “Don’t make sound bad if not I will feel bad.” He laughed making me laugh as well. “Besides, I am not just going to use him. I will trade something in return.” “Hmm.” He nodded with a smile. Goddess what is wrong with me? I should be looking for Elpis not talking to this guy I haven’t even heard of. “So, what are you doing here? You are meant to be downstairs dancing with him” he smiled at me. “I know that.” I said and rolled my eyes. “I looked for me everywhere but I couldn’t find him. I was told he was going to me that this party that is why I bothered to come.” I told him. I was disappointed. “And what might be this might alpha’s name?” he asked me. I was a little bit hesitant. “You never know. I might just be the angel that will send you to him.” I wasn’t sure if I should tell him. But then I thought about it, he was right. What if he knew him or what if I could reach him through him? Besides I couldn’t sense anything bad about him and my senses are never wrong. “Elpis Kane.” I told him, “Elpis Kane. Alpha of blood moon pack.” I told him. The smile on his face immediately went away. He kept on nodding and that gave me some kind of hope that maybe he knows him personally. But he dashed my hopes. All he said was “Hmm” and I smiled. I just grunted and went downstairs. I went down the stairs thinking. I was already two steps down to the ballroom when I felt someone hold my hand. I turn and I saw the same man. This time he had his mask on. “A dance you want? A dance you will get wolf.” He said with a small smile.
