Firestorm

Betrothed to the Italian mafia leader

In the shadowy streets of Italy, where loyalty was a currency and power was a game, Alessandro De Luca ruled with an iron fist. As the formidable leader of the De Luca mafia family, he commanded respect and inspired fear. But Alessandro's life was about to take an unexpected turn. A debt of honor, forged in blood and tradition, bound him to marry the beautiful and innocent Sophia Bianchi. Their families' alliance would secure peace and strengthen the De Luca empire. Sophia, however, was unaware of the arrangement. Her world was about to shatter. As she stood at the threshold of her destiny, Sophia faced a daunting choice: obey her family's wishes or risk everything for freedom. Little did she know, Alessandro's world was just as complicated. The weight of his legacy, the loyalty of his men, and the secrets of his past threatened to destroy the very foundation of their union. Their betrothal would ignite a firestorm of passion, loyalty, and deceit. Would Sophia surrender to the darkness of Alessandro's world, or would she become the light that transformed him? Prologue: (The scene sets the tone for the story, introducing Alessandro's ruthless leadership and Sophia's innocence.) Alessandro De Luca stood on the rooftop, gazing over the twinkling lights of Rome. His city. His kingdom. "Sir, the Bianchi family has agreed to the terms," his consigliere, Marco, said. Alessandro's gaze narrowed. "Ensure Sophia understands her role. She will be my wife, my partner, and my property." Marco nodded. "Yes, sir." In another part of the city, Sophia Bianchi laughed with her friends, her heart full of hope and dreams. Tonight, her life would change forever. ---

Code Geostorm: A Global Anomaly

Warning! Warning! There’s a bug in the system. There’s a bug in the system. Different participants are randomly being pulled into the System. Welcome, participant 12.3489489223823. [You are now part of the Forsaken. Your name is Xia Yunfei, and you’ve been given the chance to fight for your survival.] Xia Yunfei stood on the edge of a crumbling cliff, the ground rumbling beneath her feet. The once-familiar landscape had twisted into something menacing—a sky painted with churning black clouds, lightning cracking ominously above, and a forest now dense with shadows, every tree seeming to lean toward her, as if alive with malice. The voice of the System echoed in her mind: “You have three hours to complete your mission. Fail, and you will be eliminated.” “What kind of twisted game is this?” she muttered, her fingers tightening around the hilt of her dagger. Around her, the world pulsed with unpredictable threats: tornados could rise from nowhere, floods could swallow entire landscapes, and cracks could open in the earth itself. A faint sound caught her attention. She turned, and a figure emerged from the shadows—a man with a cold smirk, his dark eyes studying her with an unsettling amusement. It was Mo Ran, a member of the Overseers, his presence almost as foreboding as the storm-laden sky. “Are you lost?” he asked, his voice smooth and mocking, like the calm before a storm. His gaze was sharp, merciless, like someone who’d seen countless participants fall. Xia Yunfei glared at him, knowing better than to trust the Overseers. They were spectators of their suffering, observers of each desperate moment. This game wasn’t about survival; it was about entertainment, a spectacle where each twist of fate could be deadly. With her pulse racing and no choice but to press forward, Xia Yunfei stepped into the forest, every instinct on high alert. Her path would be riddled with disasters crafted by a system run amok—a world where firestorms, flash floods, and avalanches were as inevitable as the countdown in her head. Will Xia Yunfei harness her hidden powers and defy the apocalyptic odds, or will she be consumed by the darkness that threatens to swallow her whole?

Better Off Without Me

Across a chasm of forgotten millennia, two souls are destined to reunite. In a bygone era where magic pulsed through the veins of the world, Lyra, a warrior of unrivaled prowess, and Kael, a prince burdened by a five-hundred-year war, fell into a love as forbidden as it was fierce. But fate, a cruel jester, threatened to tear them apart. Looming on the horizon was another war, a tempest that promised to consume everything. Fearing oblivion's cold embrace, Lyra and Kael defied the ancient laws, delving into the forbidden art of reincarnation. It was a desperate gamble, a chance to defy the inevitable, but success hinged on a single, glimmering hope - a magical repository strong enough to preserve their memories across the eons. Lyra's essence was woven into a magnificent ring, a silent testament to their love. Kael, in turn, entrusted his memories to a jeweled necklace, a beacon in the swirling mists of time. Then, with a whispered plea and a surge of forbidden power, they surrendered to the unknown. Millennia bled into the present, a world devoid of magic yet brimming with its own mysteries. Emily, heiress to a veiled fortune, traded the gilded cage of her birthright for the grit and danger of the FBI. A master of disguise, she danced on the razor's edge, faking her own death to vanish from the clutches of the law. Fate, however, had a cruel sense of humor. A chance encounter in a grocery store, an undeniable pull towards a handsome stranger named Max - these were the whispers of a past whispering through the ages. Their connection was undeniable, a spark that threatened to ignite a firestorm. But the shadows of Emily's past refused to stay buried. A vengeful former partner resurfaced, jeopardizing everything she held dear. As Emily fought to shield Max from the darkness, a horrifying truth shattered the fragile reality she'd built. The ring, the undeniable pull towards Max - these were fragments of a love story etched across time. The shocking revelation - they were Lyra and Kael, reborn. Their forbidden love, a melody echoing across the centuries. Now, armed with the knowledge of their past, they must face a new battle, a fight not just for their love, but for their very existence.

The Exiled - The Shadow, His Wytch & Her Dämon

The sound of the rain pattering against the car filled my ears. “I’ve wanted to do that for at least the last five hours,” he breathed into my hair before his hands caught up in the curls, and his mouth met with mine again. Lovely, wonderfully intense kisses that made everything in this new world seem normal. Because Death doesn’t have makeout sessions, right? “Dermot,” I exhaled as somewhat of a sigh, “you make it all go away.” My self-imposed, nearly year-long dating hiatus, put into place while my heart was mending, melted in a firestorm of kisses once his mouth met mine. I felt seventeen again, with Joy Division playing in the background, and hot and heavy kisses with a sexy, wonderful boy. The world fresh, everything still ahead of me. So alive and new. *** Nika's reality is dismantled, and her perfect world unravels, when she meets Death’s right-hand man one fateful night, sending her life spiraling into a world of chaos and the impossible.

TELLUS STIRS

The year is 2030. Earth is dying. War, pandemics, overwhelming pollution, species going extinct, climate change, etc. The so-called human race has brought more harm to their planet due to greed; their increased energy needs were on a path of decadence even with their increased technological advancements. Tactical Nukes were already used in conflict zones in the fight for resources. The conclusion was a deep and frightening hum unleashed deep within the earth, heard by every living creature, and with it, civilization has ended. Those who survived wished they were slain along with their loved ones, as the dead didn't have to endure what came after. Others took the opportunity to gain unimaginable power and prestige as a new age began. Chaos reigned as per the prophecies foretold in the past. Those who did not believe knew the signs were actual; these prophecies were no longer popular folk tales. Such titles, the Breaking, the Rapture, the Malhama, and many others, came at a high cost. After all, every city or densely populated area had been hit with natural disasters that encompassed tsunamis, Earthquakes, Firestorms, Typhoons, and hurricanes. Power, food, and infrastructure. All of it was gone and what came after was worse, as humans were no longer on top of the food chain. Yet the imminent destruction of the 21st century re-opened a veil that had kept the world safe from hidden dangers, or maybe it was the other way around. Time will tell. In our story, the Protagonist rises from the ashes of the apocalypse. A desert child soldier nurtured by tragedy and death looking for an escape to fill the void in his heart. By chance, in his hand, he held a blade with immense possibilities.

The Celestial Nexus: Elyrin

In the boundless expanse where galaxies converge and celestial bodies engage in an intricate cosmic ballet, a narrative of power, deceit, and cosmic enigma takes flight. Enter the expansive world of "The Celestial Nexus" where the realms are named in harmony with their ethereal inhabitants. Our epic begins on the enigmatic world of Elyrin, a mystical realm encircled by a labyrinth of shimmering crystal rings and bathed in the radiant glow of the Stellar Harmony. Against the backdrop of steam-driven airships and enigmatic technologies fueled by the mystical Ethercrystals, noble houses vie for supremacy. House Ela-Ryze, led by the enigmatic Lady Seraphyx Ela-Ryze, schemes to claim the Elyrin Nexus—a convergence of potent leyline energies that bestows dominion over countless star systems. Across the cosmos, alien houses with names like Lyssarian Draeth, Rynochian Lunarch, and Nebulith Sylvarin yearn for their own ethereal dominion. At the heart of this interstellar power struggle stands Jonarion Brassforge, a brooding outcast with a cryptic lineage, drawn into a web of cosmic intrigue. Jonarion wields the power of "The Chroma," a mystical force drawn from the celestial constellations, making him a pivotal figure in the unfolding Celestial Nexus. His journey leads him to the floating city of Astrae luz, where clockwork automatons wander cobbled streets, and neon-bathed Etherglass infuses everyday objects with magical properties. Here, he crosses paths with the enchanting Maesara Moone, a rogue spacefarer whose ship is fueled by the ancient Pyronomicon, a steampunk relic that commands firestorms within stars. Beyond the cities, the cosmic expanse is dotted with enigmatic landmarks like the Nebuline Monoliths and the Starshifter Nexus, where interstellar battles rage with starships bedecked in intricate, ornate designs reminiscent of a bygone era. As cosmic forces collide and alliances shatter like celestial ice, "The Celestial Nexus" unfurls with a tapestry of alien worlds, mystical technologies, and celestial sorcery. In this ever-expanding universe of steampunk aesthetics and cosmic enigma, only those who master the ethereal forces can aspire to shape the destinies of worlds and stars alike.
