Endgame Holding Out For A Hero

All she wanted was to save her brother. And all he wanted was a child. He bought her, bound to a contract to give him a child and disappear from his life afterwards, but what hit her like a storm was love... falling for the masked monster who bought her body. Andrew Sterling hated greedy women, and every woman he'd contracted to bear his child, heir to the Sterling Enterprises, had been just that. When Anne, his third contracted surrogate, showed up, he saw her as the very same type of woman until she peeled open his stone-cold heart. What ties them next isn't just a baby contract, but an unexpected marriage formulated by Andrew's grandfather. But a man who has always despised marriage will never be tied down, not even by his contracted surrogate, because the minute she gave him the child he needed, he would send her out of his life. But when the tables turn on him... He says to her, "With a husband as rich as me, right now you're the wealthiest woman alive." "We're only married till I give birth," she retorted. He frowns at that, feeling internally displeased. "It doesn't matter how long we're married for. From now on, everything I own is yours. If you want heaven and earth, I'll buy it for you. My wife will never be found lacking a single fucking thing." She stared at him in disbelief. When did he start feeling something for her? He couldn't remember.

If I asked you, what does it mean to be a hero, how would you respond? Is it fighting to avenge people you've lost? Rescuing others when no one else can lend a hand? Sacrificing your body for people who don't even know your name? Is a hero anyone who is strong, flashy, prestigious, or loves beating up bad guys? The country is in utter chaos as heroes and villains fight for survival. Everyone in between has lost someone. And everyone has their own ideals for what it means to be a hero. The story continues with Rhett, a nobody with no powers except one that lets him experience death over and over again. Can he save the ones he loves? Can he be the hero he wanted to be?

> She shot him to save herself. He lived to ruin her. Now the man Annika once loved is hunting her across a trail of blood and saltwater. Revenge is simple. Love was always the complicated part.

Content Warning: This novel contains graphic depictions of violence, gore, and explicit erotic scenes. Reader discretion is strongly advised. A storm was supposed to be nothing more than an inconvenience. When Zixuan and her friends take shelter in an abandoned bus station to escape the sudden downpour, they believe they’re simply waiting for the rain to pass. But as the hours stretch on and the exits vanish, it becomes clear that this station isn’t just deserted—it’s a trap. Doors begin to appear where there were none before. Strange, cold hallways beckon. Each door they open pulls them deeper into a maze of shifting realities and forgotten memories, forcing them to confront scenes from a past they don’t remember living—haunting echoes of pain, betrayal, desire, and death. As paranoia sets in and the group begins to unravel, Zixuan realizes the truth is more horrifying than she imagined: they have been here before. This place knows them. It remembers everything they tried to forget. And someone, or something is orchestrating each cruel revelation with precision. Why were their memories taken? What really happened here? And what will be left of them once every door is opened? Let Me Out is a visceral, mind-bending descent into trauma, guilt, and twisted desire—where the past won’t stay buried, and the only way out is through the truth they were never meant to forget—but then one of them broke the rule.

They stole his future. Now, he’s rewriting reality. Ryan was at the top—champion of the world’s biggest VRMMO, but one wish changed everything. “I wish I could start over.” The Orb of Wishes granted it. Literally. Time snapped backward. The world unraveled. And Ryan woke up years in the past, holding his younger sisters close in a rotting apartment, broke and desperate. This time, he’s not starting from scratch. He remembers it all. Every hidden boss. Every bugged quest. Every game-breaking secret. While the world waits for the launch of Kingdom Forge, Ryan prepares to tear through it like a storm. But when he logs in, something glitches. His old character is locked. His class is reset. His power? Supposedly gone. Then the system flashes something strange: [Access Granted: Legacy Bank Synced] [Warning: You were never meant to exist.] Ryan grins. He doesn’t need a strong class. He doesn’t need fair odds.

This time, he’ll become the glitch the system can’t contain.

Sanvi was born into a world that never truly welcomed her. From the very beginning, her existence was met with disappointment—because she was a girl. Unlike other children, Sanvi faced developmental challenges; she struggled to understand the world around her, found it difficult to speak clearly, and lacked the communication skills that others took for granted. For this, she was ignored, ridiculed, and treated like a shadow within her own home. But even in the darkness, Sanvi had a spark—she was brilliant in her studies. Slowly, silently, she began to grow. Yet, just as she stepped into school, life grew even crueler. She became a victim of relentless bullying, day after day. And she bore it all alone. Her fear of her abusive and violent family silenced her pain. She learned early on that speaking up only brought more hurt. Years passed. The wounds she hid never healed—but she kept walking forward, searching for something—perhaps love, perhaps peace. But fate had other plans. She fell for someone younger, a love the world would never understand. Meanwhile, tragedy struck her home in ways that shattered her soul. Still, Sanvi refused to break. This is a haunting tale of a girl who was unloved, unheard, and unseen—yet dared to survive. Through betrayal, heartbreak, and loss, Sanvi’s journey is one of quiet strength, hidden battles, and the desperate hope that maybe, just maybe, she deserved more.

fighting for yourself is easy but fighting for someone else is the most difficult

For ten long years, Tatsuya Fukushu lived through hell. Every day, he was beaten. Every day, he was mocked. Every day, he was reminded that the world didn’t want someone like him. The cruelty of his classmates became routine—their fists, their words, their laughter. He endured it all in silence, believing that someday it would end. That someday, if he just kept going, peace would come. But peace never came. One day, something inside him shattered. And in a blind, terrifying moment of rage, he killed them—the three bullies who tormented him for a decade. His hands were stained. His heart, empty. He thought he would finally die. He wanted to die. Instead, he woke up in another world. A world of magic, kingdoms, and ancient prophecy. A world where people could fly, summon fire, and carve mountains with a sword. A world that felt too alive for someone as broken as him. Tatsuya didn’t rejoice at the second chance. He hated it. Hated the sky, the air, the mana that pulsed through him. He wanted silence. He wanted peace. And most of all—he wanted to disappear. But fate is rarely kind. A strange knight named Paul found him, battered and aimless. He claimed there was a prophecy. That someone like Tatsuya had been foretold. Tatsuya didn’t believe a word of it. He didn’t trust him. Why should he? But Paul didn’t ask him to believe. He simply trained him—day after day, sword in hand, never holding back. There were no kind words, only discipline. No promises, only purpose. And slowly, through blood and sweat, Tatsuya began to understand. Trust wasn’t something that came from words. It came from action. And maybe, just maybe… He wasn’t alone anymore.

Years later, in a world unaware of its ticking time bomb, a child is born beneath storm-split skies.

She tried to stay loyal. But loneliness has a sound. And sometimes, it whispers in the voice of another man. As Supriya walks the thin line between tradition and temptation, she discovers that desire doesn’t always follow rules—and sometimes, neither does love. A bold and emotional journey of a woman who was married to one… but her heart and body refused to belong to just him.

Somehow, I don't know how for sure, though, I've been sent to the world of my favorite game, Skyrim. The longer I'm here, the more I notice that this world is real. Not simply realistic, but real. Everything I do has an effect on the world, either good or bad, especially in the case with the storylines. I love Skyrim, but I'm not going to be able to survive here, right? How do I get out? Getting out isn't even the beginning of my problems. The longer I stay here, the more I realize – things are different, and not necessarily for the better. -------------- As embarrassing as this is, this is a Skyrim fanfic. It's probably permanently in progress, as I'm mainly just using it as a drawing board to practice writing storylines for games. Writing it out is just a fun way I've got for going about it. I've also written this in a style so that people who haven't played any of the Elder Scrolls series of games can read it as well. I warn you, though, there's a *lot* of words. Side note: I've also got this story on other sites/apps, in case you want to read it there. -------------- This is also a challenge to That Guy Right There. This is a combination of how I would write the fanfic you made, along with the fact that I got tired of waiting for the author, That Guy Right There, to finish his story, "Living Skyrim." It's pretty good, y'all should check it out. However, Guy's mc is an asshole, so I warn you now. The puns he makes are also kinda bad. So I challenge you, Guy. I'm gonna write my version of how it'd go, and you finish yours (unless you died.) This is a direct copy from my work on my other accounts on various reading/writing apps. Check that one out, too. It doesn't matter to me which you support, cuz I'm not monetized by any. I'm just the writer, man.

He's a global superstar, a living icon. I've been crushing on him since I was 18. Now, I'm 30, freshly divorced, and battling for custody of my child in court. But this can't be real—how could it be? Why is he, the man I've dreamed of for over a decade, asking me to be his girlfriend on live television... at the Super Bowl?
