Lum Tied Up

She was a healer, sworn to save lives. He was a killer, sworn to protect his empire by any means. When Dr. Aira’s quiet world collides with Adrian Valente — the cold, dangerous mafia boss feared by all — she is pulled into a game of blood and secrets she never wanted to play. Bound by a debt she can’t escape, Aira must navigate the shadows of his ruthless world, even as her heart betrays her. Can love bloom between innocence and sin? Or will their hearts be forever tied by chains stronger than fate itself?

"You got it wrong. What you needed wasn’t money. They do it to you. Yeah, that was basically it. What you really needed was... support. Care. Love. You need to grow up. And understand that money means everything — and nothing. Because the things you chase? They can vanish in the blink of an eye. You should know that by now." ---- Nova was only fourteen when the world first called her special. A song, a screen, and a million views later — she was the girl with the voice, the face, the future. But nobody warned her about the price of becoming someone. As fame wrapped its glittering hands around her life, Nova let go of the people who mattered most — her family, her friends… and Caleb, the only one who ever saw the real her. With each red carpet and fake smile, her soul faded, and the dream she once chased turned into a prison she built with her own hands. By twenty-two, she had it all. By twenty-three, she lost everything. Now at twenty-six, Nova is done pretending. This is not a story about a pop star. It’s a story about growing up too fast, losing yourself too easily, and finding your way back — when no one’s watching. A raw, emotional, and unfiltered tale of identity, healing, and the slow, painful beauty of rediscovery. ---

A word of advice for surviving a place like Schroon Falls: If a ghost offers you a job, take the money. The dead, after all, are famously bad with paperwork. Just be careful. In a town of crumbling manors and modernist cubes, every shadow has an angle and every echo has an agenda. The most convincing hauntings aren’t about the ghosts themselves, but about the person they’ve chosen to speak through. Sanity is negotiable. Rent is not.

[WSA ENTRY 2025] ... "There is no god, only the echo of our fears, bound together in a symphony of false hope, woven to make this endless cycle of pain bearable... But I refuse to be just another note in their song. I will not be silenced to protect the gate you so desperately uphold. I don’t care for the blind masses; they are but shadows, moving without purpose. If I cannot run, I will walk. If I cannot walk, I will crawl. If I cannot crawl, I will roll. And if all that remains of me is a severed head, then I will still glare at you with the scorn of the relentless." ... In a world where Hunters fight to keep humanity safe from monstrous invasions, Timothy Walter is nothing more than an E-rank weakling, expendable, powerless, and barely surviving. That changes when a forgotten dungeon forces him into a deadly trial, awakening ancient rulers from across races. Bound to the weakest among them, he inherits a power unlike any other: "King Player." Now, with a system that defies all logic, Timothy must carve his path, facing enemies both human and monstrous, as he ascends from the lowest depths to claim a throne none believed he could reach. AUTHORS NOTE: I put it under a restricted audience because of the following reasons; There is a huge amount of blood and gore meaning a lot of action and adventure. An equally adequate amount of romance with a pinch of R18 just to emphasize the points. Don't take the world-building to heart; Nigeria is better than that Kinda... If you survive the first volume, then keep it up after dropping your thoughts in reviews. I upload 1500+ words per chapter, and that means I may not participate in many chapter giveaways except when milestones are reached. Again, I appreciate your advice, thoughts, and criticism even more. The synopsis will keep changing as the story progresses. And yes, It's the familiar hunter's trope spun around in my head because I love the solo leveling light novel, so... have a fun read, I hope.

"You left me here alone... can't you see I'm almost blind now?" she said, frustration lacing her voice. Still, no response. "Are you even listening to me? He could be here any time, and I'm not ready yet. What will he say after seeing me like this?" she kept blabbering. She paused, startled by a deep chuckle. Her breath hitched. Wait... why does that laugh sound so manly? She froze the moment she felt a warm breath fan across her face. "Yahi ke kitni pyaari lag rahi hai meri begum," ( that how pretty my wife looks) came his husky voice. "A-aap?" (you?) she whispered, stunned. She tried to open her eyes, but he gently stopped her. "Don't open them yet. Your eyeliner's still wet," he said. She nodded silently. Goosebumps broke across her skin as she felt him leaning closer, his breath brushing over her eyelids. "W-what a-are you d-doing?" she stammered. "Drying your eyeliner," he replied casually and continued. She squeezed her eyes shut, unable to handle his nearness.

"A soldier who fell in the shadows. A duchess standing in the light. A fate that refuses to let her go." Betrayed on the battlefield and left for dead, Elyssia Becker should have disappeared into history. Instead, she wakes up recalling her past life-not as a warrior, but as Elysia Nohar Arzest, the Grand Duchess of the most powerful noble house in the Continent. She should have everything-power, wealth, influence. But something is wrong. Her memories are fractured, her instincts scream of danger, and the whispers of war are growing louder. The world she now walks feels both familiar and unfamiliar, as if she has stepped into a story she was never meant to be part of. And then, there is him. Alric Rihett Arzest, a lover turned husband whom she has forgotten... is a man of honor, strength... and secrets. The world sees him as the Grand Duke, a ruler of unmatched skill and power. But there is more to him -things hidden beneath his unwavering composure, things he will not speak of. The weight he carries is not just that of a noble, but of a past long buried and an identity few truly understand. Yet even Alric's mysteries are but a ripple in the vast ocean of forces moving beyond human comprehension. Somewhere, in the depths of history and fate, there are those who watch from the shadows -men and beings whose influence reaches far beyond the Empire, weaving threads unseen. Their motives remain unknown. Their power? Unquestionable. Enemies hide behind masks of civility, alliances are written in blood, and history itself seems to be unraveling. With a mind honed for battle and a past that refuses to be forgotten, Elysia must navigate the treacherous world of nobility, war, and secrets buried deep enough to change the fate of an empire. Because this time, Arzest will not fall.
