Dark Phoenix

In a world ravaged by chaos and loneliness, John's life lacked purpose and meaning. The constant protests outside his apartment mirrored the turmoil within him, their noise a haunting reminder of the unrest he couldn't escape. Lost in unemployment and isolation, John sought refuge in virtual realms, where he could momentarily escape reality. Yet, his existence felt empty, like an abandoned canvas waiting for a painter's touch. With each passing day, he robotically navigated life, seeking something more. In an unexpected twist of events, a sudden explosion shattered his life, leaving him floating in a mysterious void. As panic threatened to consume him, an otherworldly voice offered him an enigmatic opportunity—to rewrite his destiny, to embrace a higher purpose. With unwavering determination, John accepted the offer, and a blinding light transported him to a new reality. His consciousness had returned, but his senses felt foreign, devoid of sight. Instead, he sensed momentous events unfolding—a significant figure being born, destined to become the emperor of a crumbling empire. John VIII Palaiologos, a historical figure tasked with confronting the mighty Ottoman Empire, was now the role he inhabited. As he grappled with his newfound identity and the weight of his responsibilities, he realized that his journey had just begun. The fate of an empire rested on his shoulders, and he was determined to shape history in a way that would bring hope and transformation to his world. --------------------------------------------- [Author Note:] Updates: 3-4 chapters/week *Miss me?

Now, I know what you're thinking, “is this another superhero story where the heroes always beat the bad guys and are over dramatic. Or the villains always beat the good guys and are over dramatic?”. I know, I know— the stories gets kinda boring after a while when the heroes or villains always win. Well, sorry to disappoint you but this is that type of story. But this is where there are no heroes saving the day or the villains ruling the world. No, this is the story about in between the line, the small grey line that no one sees but is always there. The grey line you can cross at any moment. This is about the story where the Vigilantes— the anti-heroes win. The villain’s to the heroes, the nightmares to the villain’s, the guiding light to the people who can’t defend themselves when no hero is there to save them. The True Heroes. The Heroes that can either win or lose, but ultimately still win because that’s what people want in a story.

"oh you dirty girl , you love what daddy is doing to you huh" he said licking his lips and kissed me on the forehead pressing his manhood on my belly. "Relax baby your day will come too" he said and pulled a rope fastening it hard on my body.

Hell is empty and all the devils are here. Shakespeare – [The Tempest] As a form of punishment for mistakenly killing an innocent civilian, Song Zhuyu, a priest and part-time exorcist, found himself exiled to the distant shores of Shenci Island, hundreds of miles away from his hometown and the only city he had ever known his whole life. However, unbeknownst to anyone, he harbored a secret agenda— to hunt down the culprit who had turned his life upside down. Fully prepared for meeting danger at every turn, what he encountered instead was a beautiful, serene island, albeit with two strange ironclad rules: First, do not climb the hill after 1 AM. Second, do not interact with Rui Ye. On the first night of his stay, Song Zhuyu broke two of the taboos, only to discover that the infamous Rui Ye was nothing like he had expected. “I am cursed,” the blind, beautiful man told him with a wistful smile. “If you associate yourself with me, the curse will haunt you too.” In response, Song Zhuyu’s lips hooked into a careless smile, “I don’t think you have to worry about that. I, myself, am cursed as well. What’s the big deal about adding another one?” But as inexplicable deaths began to plague the island, Song Zhuyu realized that the island, including the helpless and soft-hearted Rui Ye he had come to know, held a far darker secret than he could've ever imagined. In a race against time, he must navigate the treacherous waters of deceit and betrayal to unravel the island’s sinister truth and achieve his goal before it's too late. *** Pretty, flirtatious yet heartless priest gong x blind, mysterious and cursed shou Additional tags: gong/seme/top protagonist, action, mystery, suspense, horror, psychological, thriller, dark elements, angel and demons, slow romance, murder, crime, beautiful protagonist, older love interest, 1 vs 1, dubcon, supernatural creatures, exorcism, tragedy, past plays a big part Find me on: Instagram: delanasiwarka Discord server: bit.ly/delanadiscord

In a world where morality is a shifting shadow and power is the only constant, Kaelen Thorne emerges as a mysterious and enigmatic figure, offering salvation to those caught in impossible situations. But his help comes at a price. From struggling teachers and disillusioned leaders to everyday people on the brink of collapse, Kaelen whispers into the darkness of their souls, guiding them toward victory—but at the cost of their integrity. Each story in "Dark Threads" explores the fine line between right and wrong, as characters confront corrupt authority figures, societal systems stacked against them, and their own inner demons. As they fall under Kaelen’s subtle influence, they face the ultimate choice: uphold their values and face defeat, or embrace the darkness to achieve their goals. In "Shadows of Authority," Jenna Holbrook, a dedicated teacher, is on the verge of losing everything to a corrupt superintendent. When Kaelen offers her the chance to expose him using morally questionable methods, Jenna is forced to choose between fighting clean and winning dirty. In other tales, a disillusioned investigator, a compromised journalist, and a betrayed business owner all find themselves drawn to Kaelen’s irresistible logic, tempted to cross ethical lines they once swore to uphold. Each must grapple with the price of power and the lengths they’re willing to go to claim it. "Dark Threads" weaves together stories of moral compromise, hidden corruption, and the dangerous allure of power, exploring what happens when the only way to win is to become the very thing you fear.
