Temptation Chronicles

--AUTHOR'S NOTICE-- I regret to inform you, that as of Monday, 10.01.2022, I'm putting Temptation Chronicles on Pause. I came to the conclusion, that as of now, I'm unable to continue writing, due to several issues coming up as of late. These include, but aren't limited to: University Graduation work, Exams, as well as Monetary Issues. I'll try my best to get back onto writing as soon as possible, however this most likely won't happen at least until June 2022. Once I've graduated, I might continue writing this story, given that I'll have the time to do it in my free time. Another thing I've noticed, is that ever since I've started writing, my enthusiasm for this story has been on a steady decline. The issue isn't that I don't think highly of it, which I definitely do, it's a more personal reason. I don't think that it's up to par with what I envisioned for it, as well as having to write in a style I personally don't really like. I hope to see you once again, when I'm back writing, until then, please enjoy the story up to the current point. See you this summer (probably)! You know you want it. Come on, click on it. Give in to [Temptation]. Born into a family of heroes, Dan Atys, son of some of the top heroes of the world, was an absolute [Low Tier] loser. Getting bullied was his bread day in and out. What do you think happens to someone like that? I mean, he was raised by heroes, groomed to be one. You'd think he'd turn into one as well, right? Turns out, Dan thought not. The abuse has messed with his mind, and even his powers didn't seem to affect the people who blindly follow principles. His power, [Temptation] , is a superpower that affects the mind of the afflicted. The only condition that is needed to be fulfilled, is that Dan wills it so. Up to this point tho, he thought it's a charm effect, that has a positive effect on those surrounding him. This usually worked this way, but for some reason, ever since he enrolled into the prestigious School of Herocraft, Heracleon, named after the first superhero in history, his powers didn't seem to affect anyone. No one wanted to be friends with him, and all the affection he had from others, was through extreme abuse. They wouldn't just beat him up, they would torture him both physically, and mentally. So much for those "heroes." After realising his true potential, the ability to manipulate just about anyone in the world, he thought it would be natural for him, to "stray" from the path of "heroes."  ---DISCALIMER--- We've had a few people clicking on TC, because they were expecting some sexual/explicit [Temptation] content. There's nothing of that sort going on! Please, read the synopsis if you're interested in the story, and if it caught your eyes, please, do give the story a read. Thank you. --- WPC #194 Silver Prize Cover Design: @kincesco (Instagram)

Ketika Dia Pergi

Emily,17 tahun, adalah seorang gadis biasa yang menghabiskan waktu dengan sekolah, berkumpul bersama sahabat-sahabatnya, naksir teman sekelas yang tampan, dan bercita-cita menjadi desainer. Meskipun memiliki ibu yang menderita gangguan jiwa, Emily mencoba menikmati masa-masa remajanya. Ray, 17 tahun, adalah cowok pendiam namun berprestasi di sekolah. Ray sangat menyayangi adiknya yang berkebutuhan khusus, meski membuat hari-harinya terasa berat. Apalagi setelah ibunya membawa mereka pindah ke sebuah kota kecil untuk bekerja di perkebunan. Dunia Emily dan Ray mendadak jungkir balik saat Benny dan Maya-Ayah Emily dan Ibu Ray-menghilang bersama. Emily dan Ray sangat shock mengetahui bahwa ternyata orang tua mereka ternyata terlibat perselingkuhan. Ray memang sudah curiga, karena belakangan ibunya sering dijemput oleh bosnya, yang ternyata adalah Ayah Emily. Ibunya juga semakin abai dan kehilangan kesabaran terhadap Chris. Sekarang Emily dan Ray terancam dimasukkan ke panti asuhan yang dikelola oleh negara, karena masih dibawah umur dan tidak memiliki orangtua. Pengacara perusahaan Emily mengatakan bahwa jika lebih dari setahun Benny dan Maya tidak ditemukan, maka mereka akan dinyatakan meninggal. Jadi Emily dan Ray memiliki waktu setahun, sebelum akhirnya mereka dimasukkan ke panti asuhan. Dan ya, mereka hanya butuh waktu setahun. Karena tahun depan mereka sudah berusia delapan belas tahun dan dianggap dewasa. Asalkan selama setahun itu Benny dan Maya tetap menghilang, atau kembali ke keluarganya dalam keadaan hidup, Emily dan Ray akan tetap tinggal di rumah mereka. Namun, bagaimana jika Benny dan Maya ternyata sudah meninggal? Emily akan masuk panti asuhan, dan perusahaan ibunya akan dibekukan sampai umurnya delapan belas tahun. Ray dan Chris juga akan masuk ke panti asuhan, terpisah satu sama lain, karena Chris pasti akan dimasukkan ke panti asuhan khusus untuk anak autis. Emily dan Ray dicekam ketakutan saat tanpa sengaja saat hiking mereka menemukan jejak mobil ayah Emily di sebuah jurang. Akankah mereka melaporkannya ke kepolisian? Atau mengabaikannya dan tetap berpura-pura orangtua mereka menghilang? Hidup dipanti asuhan akan berat, dan Ray lebih naik mati daripada dipisahkan dari Chris.
