Johan Alcohol

That not so important character turned out to be important

Shaun’s life was already in free-fall: fired from a suspiciously shady job, drowning his sorrows in questionable alcohol, and wrapping things up with a classic car crash. The universe, in its infinite wisdom, decided this wasn’t rock bottom—nope, Shaun was getting reincarnated. But not as a hero. Not even as a sidekick. Nope, Shaun wakes up as **Shaun** (no, not a typo)—a tragic background extra from a fantasy novel. You know, the kind of character whose job is to exist solely for pain, ridicule, and the occasional wallet-theft subplot. This Shaun? Father walked out. Mother ghosted him for a "better future." Property sharks, mobsters, and scam artists all sniffing around what little he owns. But hey, he somehow clawed his way into a prestigious academy! A chance at redemption, right? Wrong. Enter stage left: bullies. First, the villains make him a punching bag. Then the so-called *heroes* decide, "Yeah, let’s take turns too!" Normally, this poor soul would accept his fate, because that’s what he’s written to do. But reincarnated Shaun? He didn’t read that memo. He has… let’s say, *creative solutions* to his problems. Where the original Shaun took beatings with a grimace, this Shaun hands out payback with a cold smile and zero guilt. Bullies? Meet karma, wielded like a sledgehammer. But something’s off. The script’s changing. People are acting weird. They’re *recognizing* him, approaching him like they know secrets he hasn’t been briefed on. And that internal monologue habit he has? Turns out it’s not so internal anymore. A growing number of eavesdroppers think his sarcastic, third-person narration is… important. please do not leave any review both positive or negative until you have read first 20 chapter new chapter is uploaded daily monday to saturday

On the verge of financial ruin, with creditors banging at their door, she is presented with an unimaginable offer from the enigmatic billionaire Julian Blackwood. Julian isn’t just any man. He’s one of the most powerful, ruthless figures in the business world, known for getting what he wants at any cost. His wealth and influence are limitless, and now, he’s set his sights on Lexi. His proposal is as simple as it is shocking: spend one year as his lover, subm it to his every desire, bear his child, and he will save her family from financial devastation. Desperation forces Lexi to consider the unthinkable. If she agrees, it means plunging herself into Julian’s world of luxury and excess, but also into a dangerous game of submission and control. What she doesn’t expect is how intensely Julian will dominate not only her body, but her mind and heart as well. In his glittering penthouses and private jets, Lexi is drawn deeper into his twisted world, where pleasure and pain intertwine, and where she finds herself craving the very things she once feared. But Julian’s wealth comes with more than just power. It brings danger. His empire is built on secrets, and as Lexi becomes more entangled in his life, she realizes that his obsession with her goes beyond lust. He wants to own her in every way. And though Lexi begins to surrender to his intoxicating touch, she starts to unravel the dark forces lurking behind his fortune. His enemies are watching, waiting for any sign of weakness, and Lexi may be the perfect target. As the lines between contract and real emotion blur, Lexi finds herself torn. Her growing feelings for Julian clash with the terrifying realization that she is being consumed by his world. He isn’t just a billionaire offering her salvation, he is a man who will stop at nothing to possess her completely. Just when Lexi believes she might have found a way to navigate the dangers of their arrangement, a shocking betrayal shatters everything. Now, with her heart and her future on the line, she faces an impossible choice: stay with Julian and risk losing her soul, or break free and face the wrath of a man who is used to owning everything, including her.   Can Lexi escape Julian’s seductive grip, or will the billionaire’s obsession trap her forever, binding her not just with wealth, but with the child that will tie them together for a lifetime?

"I will touch the stars... or die trying." ==================== Note: NO R-18, R**e, Romance or pre-marital handholding. I take no pleasure in writing such things.

Also, the power system is similar to BotDS, but I've asked the author for permission to use it. It's also heavily inspired my writing, but the beginning is where its most prevalent.

Sweet Devil [BL]

“Happy Christmas Eve!” chuckled the old man as he strapped a watch around Misha’s wrist. “Have a nice trip.” The next morning, the 25-year-old Misha woke up with a pounding headache, sore muscles, and strong nausea. In short, the perfect hangover. But when he saw his reflection in the mirror, he soon realized that the pain wasn’t caused by the terrifying amount of alcohol he had drunk the previous day. His body had shrunk. A lot. He didn’t have the time to think too much about it since his mother suddenly erupted in his room - the next day, his sister did the same thing. Mother and sister who had died a long time ago. The old man wasn't crazy. As he had predicted, Misha did travel back in time, just before losing his loved ones. And so, Misha had now one mission: changing the dreadful fate of his mother and sister and sending away his sister’s boyfriend by all means. They had to break up! Like it or not, that man will bring disaster to the family sooner or later. This time, Misha wouldn't fall for that warm smile and those gentle eyes as he knew they were hiding a cold, insensitive personality. However, things weren’t as simple as he thought, and perhaps the sister’s boyfriend was not the enemy. Perhaps, since the beginning, he had everything wrong and knew nothing of his sister. ________________ *The BL will mostly show up in the second and third volumes. It is a very slow romance, so don't expect the protagonist to fall in love quickly. In the first volume, he has too much on his mind to care about love and such. *There will be contents for 18+ in the second and/or third volume. I will put a warning at the beginning of every NSFW chapter. P@treon: https://www.patreon.com/rsvaesen?fan_landing=true

Our Accidental Forever

I never expected my life to change so drastically. One moment, I was a woman with dreams, deeply in love with a man I thought I’d spend my life with. The next, I was betrayed and heartbroken, walking in on him cheating without a hint of remorse. That night, overwhelmed with pain and too much alcohol, I made a reckless decision, a one-night stand with a stranger who, to my shock, turned out to be my new boss. Arec, the vice president of Denco Groups, was desperate. To secure his future as CEO, he needed a wife, and in a twist of fate, he offered me a contract marriage. It sounded absurd, but his desperation mirrored my own need to escape the wreckage of my life. It was supposed to be simple: no emotions, no strings attached. A business arrangement, nothing more. I thought I could handle it, that I could keep my heart out of it. I was wrong. What started as a deal quickly spiraled into something far more complicated. As our fake marriage blurred into real feelings, the world around us began to close in. Disapproving family, old enemies, buried secrets, scheming rivals, and even an attempt on my life threatened to tear us apart. This is my story, a journey of heartbreak, unexpected love, and a fight to protect what we built together. In a world filled with lies and deceit, can a marriage born out of necessity become something real? --- Warning: This book contains mature themes. Join my Discord server: https://discord.gg/NJJKETf4

Mas allá del dolor y la soledad

Más allá del dolor y la soledad es una historia profunda y emocional que explora las vidas de varios jóvenes marcados por sus experiencias personales, sus luchas internas y sus complejas relaciones. A través de los ojos de Pariz, la protagonista, se desvelan los oscuros matices de una vida llena de dificultades: malas notas, una familia rota por un padre alcohólico y abusivo, la pobreza y el dolor de vivir en una constante lucha por sobrevivir. Pariz, acostumbrada a la indiferencia y al dolor, busca escapar de su realidad a través del cigarro, mientras enfrenta su propio vacío emocional. Por otro lado, Lápiz, una chica con un pasado de abuso y soledad, nunca ha conocido el amor en ninguna de sus formas. Su niñez estuvo marcada por el abuso en su antigua escuela y el abandono de cualquier figura familiar, y ahora, con una personalidad cerrada y desconfiada, le cuesta abrirse a los demás. Vive en un constante estado de desconfianza, incapaz de conectar con quienes la rodean, abriéndose poco a poco a emociones nuevas, atesorándolas, pero también negándolas, peleando constantemente consigo misma para aceptar las experiencias y aprender de ellas, recordando en el camino experiencias bloqueadas y recuerdos que la perturban enfrentándose a ellos para descubrirse poco a poco. Cada personaje de la historia tiene su propio trasfondo y desarrollo. Johan, jj joakin y otros compañeros, todos con sus propias heridas y motivaciones, juegan un papel fundamental en el crecimiento y transformación de Pariz y Lápiz. Mientras atraviesan sus propias pruebas de dolor y redención, sus caminos se entrelazan, llevando a cada uno a enfrentar lo que más temen: sus propios miedos, traumas y la posibilidad de encontrar algo tan extraño para ellos como el amor y la aceptación, en un reducido grupo de jóvenes heridos de diferentes maneras y como lo esconden para estar con los demas. Más allá del dolor y la soledad es una exploración cruda y sin adornos sobre los efectos del abuso, la soledad, la dependencia emocional y el deseo de pertenecer. Es una historia que no tiene miedo de mostrar la oscuridad de la vida y decepcionar cualquier intento de salir de ese agujero, pero también resaltar los brillos de salvación de forma poética, aunque sea imperfecta y llena de cicatrices.

Beyond the pain and loneliness

"Beyond Pain and Loneliness" is a profound and emotional story that explores the lives of several young people marked by their personal experiences, inner struggles, and complex relationships. Through the eyes of Pariz, the protagonist, the dark nuances of a life filled with difficulties are revealed: bad grades, a broken family due to an alcoholic and abusive father, poverty, and the pain of living in a constant struggle for survival. Pariz, accustomed to indifference and pain, seeks to escape her reality through cigarettes while confronting her own emotional emptiness. On the other hand, Lápiz, a girl with a past of abuse and loneliness, has never known love in any form. Her childhood was marked by abuse at her old school and the abandonment of any family figure. Now, with a closed and distrustful personality, she finds it hard to open up to others. She lives in a constant state of distrust, unable to connect with those around her, slowly opening up to new emotions, cherishing them, but also denying them. She constantly fights with herself to accept experiences and learn from them, recalling blocked memories and disturbing experiences, confronting them little by little to discover herself. Each character in the story has their own background and development. Johan, JJ, Joakin, and other companions, all with their own wounds and motivations, play a fundamental role in the growth and transformation of Pariz and Lápiz. As they face their own trials of pain and redemption, their paths intertwine, leading each one to confront what they fear most: their own fears, traumas, and the possibility of finding something as foreign to them as love and acceptance, in a small group of young people wounded in different ways, hiding it to be with others. "Beyond Pain and Loneliness" is a raw and unembellished exploration of the effects of abuse, loneliness, emotional dependency, and the desire to belong. It is a story unafraid to show the darkness of life and the disappointment of any attempt to escape that hole, but it also highlights the sparks of salvation in a poetic way, even if imperfect and filled with scars.

Mommy Villainess

[Mommy Villainess (The Lady with the Crab Mallet)] *** [Original book cover. Artwork by Artist Michiro for WN Author sola_cola.] *** In Tilly's past life, she was a villainess who neglected her husband and son for power. Then, the "real woman of the prophecy" came and took them away from her. When she failed to seize the throne for herself, she was executed for all the crimes she committed. Then, came her rebirth. She wants to meet her son again so she vowed to be a good person this time. Good enough to seduce Captain Kiho--- her husband in her past life. But soon, she realized that flirting with the captain is the least of her worry. After all, she discovered that her "evilness" in the past was caused by the true villain--- someone who wanted her dead to steal the special power that she didn't know she possessed. Power that has something to do with the Four Ancient Beasts of the Moonchester Empire: The Red Phoenix, the Blue Dragon, the Golden Tiger, and The Black Serpent. Apparently, she's the Beast Priestess... ... and her lineage isn't supposed to exist anymore. Because of her blood, there are people who want her gone. So now, aside from having a happy life with Kiho and their son, she has a new goal: to burn down the b*tches who want to ruin her family again. *** [EXCERPT] *** [‘Why am I so horny tonight?’] Tilly thought to herself while sucking the crab leg suggestively. And then, she noticed that Captain Kiho gulped while staring at her mouth. [‘Ah, I’m not the only who’s hot and bothered here.’] She didn’t know if it was the alcohol in her system or her desperation to have a child… … but she suddenly felt like flirting with him. They were bound to get married and have a child together anyway. “Captain,” said Tilly as soon as she pulled the crab leg out of her mouth. “I can clearly see that we’re both attracted to each other. Shall we spend the night together?” Kiho remained pokerfaced but she saw panic cross his now glowing yellowish eyes. Ah, the captain was flustered. “My lady, you seem to be really drunk.” She walked towards him and when he didn’t move an inch, she stood in front of him and looked up at him with a grin. “Captain, are you the type of man who will only sleep with his betrothed?” “That seems to be the case, my lady.” He said that as if he was forcing the words out of his mouth. Plus, she could see in his eyes that he was conflicted– that it was hard for him to reject her. [‘Aw, I didn’t know that I have this kind of effect on my ex-husband.’] Or perhaps she just didn’t pay attention in the past. “Captain, I have a solution to your problem,” said Tilly in a playful voice. Then, she stood on her toes and whispered in Kiho’s ear. “Let’s get married.”
