En la vida hay dos tipos de personas: aquellos que cuentan su historia y aquellos que la callan. Todos de alguna manera u otra atesoramos nuestra privacidad, sea por gusto o por necesidad; de alguna manera u otra todos tenemos algo que contar o que ocultar. Jasper Cooper es un hombre atractivo y muy trabajador, pero tiene varios defectos; los mas marcados son su perfeccionismo y su seriedad a la hora de hablar y actuar. Jasper es un hombre parco, solo suele hablar lo necesario y nada más, pero todo cambia cuando contrata a Nichole; una chica trabajadora e independiente que comienza a trabajar como su asistente. Nichole y Jasper se harán muy cercanos y eso hará que muchas veces se creen malos entendidos entre ella, él y sus allegados. Debido a esa gran unión entre ambos, Nichole descubrirá porque Jasper tiene una personalidad tan hermética y tendrá que elegir entre apoyarlo con todo o darle la espalda y dejarlo solo. Dicen que no hay nada oculto que no salga a la luz y el pasado de Jasper no será la excepción.

"No own knows the secret of the beast" _____ The legends told happened annually; The corruption, every year the beast would slither through the cracks of the earth, every year, another human would be taken. Our ancestors warned that once a human was corrupted; there was no way back. Apart from death.. ___ Thousands of years ago, a monarch was said to have released a dangerous force onto the earth with the energy of all mages in the kingdom of Dexrecs. It was an unimaginable power that could devour the whole world, but it stood obediently by the King's side, annihilating surrounding kingdoms and plummeting cities.The king basked in the destruction his newfound power brought upon his enemies. And lust for even more power settled in his heart and made him enhance the dragon's with his people's blood and souls. The dragon, immeasurably power, broke loose of his King's control, setting the capital ablaze in the all consuming flames of death. The king, distressed, assembled all mages and demanded they take their power back from the might beast. They failed. And just when there was no hope, a peasant mage sacrificed himself, creating a weapon, activated only by his bloodline; a sword and shield no man could see. That very night the dragon was slain, but it rose from the ashes; wings gone and became a beast brought back by the Devil. It terrifies the earth, in the stead of the one who brought it back from the dead. Hiro Holmes, a nineteen year old American, who had looked hardship in the eye and laughed at it every time; had never faced something like this. The beast calls unto him and many others with it's children. A group of oddly banded people are forced to journey to a place where death reigns, mysteries beg to be solved and where the beast faces them, baring his fangs at them with the Devil on it's back. Death will reign, but not alone. There will be a ray of hope; a vision, that shall accompany the darkness. Light and Death can have no fellowship, Hiro must choose: Freedom or Redemption? Will he choose the latter? not relying on the weapons which he cannot see? Will he walk the path of destruction? God calls, but he doesn't listen. He instead has one task in hand, mind and soul; to be free, but the question is... Will he ever be? -- Warning: There would be blood and colorful language(lots) but no steamy scenes. Enjoy :)

When the new boy joins the school, it is impossible to ignore him. Not only was Ian new but he also had looks and style, and apparently a good personality too. That's what made Nichole fall for him but hot and cold he was, one day he'd ignore her whole existence and the next he'd be clinging to her like his life depended on it. Their relationship developed dramatically and they both knew it was wrong but neither of them had the courage to break it. It was a dilemma, either giving up their happiness or breaking those they care about.

The story of the people of Middle Earth. "One ring to rule them all"

In a time when empires clashed and the world teetered on the brink of change, there existed a brief window of opportunity—a sliver in the vast tapestry of history. It was an era when the boundaries of possibility seemed to stretch, when unlikely alliances were forged, and extraordinary destinies converged. In the 1800s, a disparate group of individuals from different corners of the world found themselves bound by a common thread—their paths intertwined through fate's intricate design. They were a fellowship born out of necessity, united by circumstance, and propelled by a shared desire to shape their own destinies. At the heart of this remarkable tale stood our protagonist, a man whose greatest asset lay not in his sword or gun, but in his words and ability to forge lasting connections. With his silver tongue and genuine charisma, he brought together a disgraced samurai with ties to leaders in Japan, an elderly pirate captain with connections to powerful figures in Britain and the Caribbean, a Zulu warrior whose bravery knew no bounds, a legendary gunslinger of the Wild West, and a Victorian gentleman detective with a razor-sharp mind. Their journey began in different corners of the world, each facing their own trials and tribulations. Yet, as their paths converged, they would discover the true power of friendship, trust, and the indomitable spirit that dwelled within them. From the savannahs of Africa to the bustling streets of London, the untamed shores of the Caribbean to the dusty plains of the American West, their adventures would take them to the very edges of the known world. Together, they would confront ancient secrets, face formidable adversaries, and unravel the mysteries that threatened to plunge the world into chaos. This is a tale of courage and honor, of unlikely heroes defying the odds, and the bonds that form when diverse souls unite for a common cause. It is a story of redemption, where past transgressions are set aside, and the pursuit of justice becomes paramount. So, dear reader, prepare to embark on a grand adventure, where the clash of swords mingles with the whispers of intrigue, and where the power of unity and friendship can shape the course of history.

This shortest of all New Testament gospels is likely the first to have been written, yet it often tells of Jesus’ ministry in more detail than either Matthew or Luke. It recounts what Jesus did in a vivid style, where one incident follows directly upon another. In this almost breathless narrative, Mark stresses Jesus’ message about the kingdom of God now breaking into human life as good news and Jesus himself as the gospel of God. Jesus is the Son whom God has sent to rescue humanity by serving and by sacrificing his life. The opening verse about good news in Mark serves as a title for the entire book. The action begins with the appearance of John the Baptist, a messenger of God attested by scripture. But John points to a mightier one, Jesus, at whose baptism God speaks from heaven, declaring Jesus his Son. The Spirit descends upon Jesus, who eventually, it is promised, will baptize “with the holy Spirit.” This presentation of who Jesus really is, rounded out with a brief reference to the temptation of Jesus and how Satan’s attack fails. Jesus as Son of God will be victorious, a point to be remembered as one reads of Jesus’ death and the enigmatic ending to Mark’s Gospel. The key verses at Mark which are programmatic, summarize what Jesus proclaims as gospel: fulfillment, the nearness of the kingdom, and therefore the need for repentance and for faith. After the call of the first four disciples, all fishermen we see Jesus engaged in teaching, preaching, and healing, and exorcising demons. The content of Jesus’ teaching is only rarely stated, and then chiefly in parables about the kingdom. His cures, especially on the sabbath; his claim, like God, to forgive sins; his table fellowship with tax collectors and sinners; and the statement that his followers need not now fast but should rejoice while Jesus is present, all stir up opposition that will lead to Jesus’ death. Jesus’ teaching in exalts the word of God over “the tradition of the elders” and sees defilement as a matter of the heart, not of unclean foods. Yet opposition mounts. Scribes charge that Jesus is possessed by Beelzebul. His relatives think him “out of his mind”. Jesus’ kinship is with those who do the will of God, in a new eschatological family, not even with mother, brothers, or sisters by blood ties. But all too often his own disciples do not understand Jesus. The fate of John the Baptist hints ominously at Jesus’ own passion. Momentarily he is glimpsed in his true identity when he is transfigured before three of the disciples, but by and large Jesus is depicted in Mark as moving obediently along the way to his cross in Jerusalem. Occasionally there are miracles, the only such account in Jerusalem), sometimes teachings, but the greatest concern is with discipleship. For the disciples do not grasp the mystery being revealed. One of them will betray him, Judas; one will deny him, Peter; all eleven men will desert Jesus. The Gospel of Mark ends in the most ancient manuscripts with an abrupt scene at Jesus’ tomb, which the women find empty. His own prophecy of Mk is reiterated, that Jesus goes before the disciples into Galilee; “there you will see him.” These words may imply resurrection appearances there, or Jesus’ parousia there, or the start of Christian mission, or a return to the roots depicted in Galilee. Mark’s Gospel is even more oriented to christology. Jesus is the Son of God. He is the Messiah, the anointed king of Davidic descent, the Greek for which, Christos, has, by the time Mark wrote, become in effect a proper name. Jesus is also seen as Son of Man, a term used in Mark not simply as a substitute for “I” or for humanity in general or with reference to a mighty figure who is to come, but also in connection with Jesus’ predestined, necessary path of suffering and vindication.
