Frame By Frame

Right now, Kayla’s life revolves around launching her model, Imani Miyaki, into stardom. But her plans are constantly at risk—not just from the dangerously charming Leo, a top model whose ruthless streak makes him as unnerving as he is captivating, but from her own complicated feelings toward Seojin, Leo’s enigmatic manager. Leo’s provocations test her control, and his darker, almost predatory edge keeps her constantly on guard, wary of what he might do next. At the same time, Seojin’s protective nature stirs something unfamiliar in Kayla, though she’s haunted by the fear that his care is born from their history, when he looked out for her in the industry as a mentor or big brother rather than as a lover. In a world where ambition, desire, and danger collide with every photo shoot, Kayla must keep her focus on Imani’s rise to fame, all while navigating the intense forces around her that threaten to unravel everything. ••• "Leo," Seojin's voice boomed through the studio. Everyone stopped to look at the short-haired, towering man who looked more like a military officer than a modeling agent. "Is this where you're supposed to be?" "Looks like your owner's here to rein you in," she smirked against her balled fist, and Leo narrowed his eyes at her. "And yet," he said, leaning close until his lips nearly brushed hers, "I could still maul whoever I please. Even you, Miss Manager." His fingers touched the front of her neck as he mimicked the jaws of a dog. His fingers pressed just enough to remind her of his strength as his gray eyes grew darker and his smile twisted. Kayla stared at him with an unamused look. "Right here," he breathed out with a satisfied exhale. "Seems you need a muzzle too," she whispered back, annoyed, though she did not react abruptly so no one would notice what he was doing. Seojin then grabbed Leo by the collar. He was the only one who could treat Leo with less than kindness without upsetting anyone, as he'd been doing it for a while. Kayla found herself looking up at Seojin, observing his tanned skin and the mole that peeked from his neck when he moved the right way. He still kept his hair cropped so short it looked almost like a buzzcut. "Apologies, Miss Micaela," he said to her, and she felt her chest pound at how his voice softened suddenly when he addressed her. "He's never where he's supposed to be." "It's fine; no one seems to mind Leo's presence," she said, looking away to prevent herself from giving anything away. "But we do have a tight schedule. Right now." "Right, we'll be getting out of your way," Seojin said as he dragged Leo out, who waved at Imani, who only smiled as she continued working. Of course, Kayla noticed. It was what bothered her more. "Imani's ready for the next set," one of the assistants informed her, snapping her out of her thoughts, though Kayla's eyes were still slightly stuck on Seojin's large frame leaving the room. "Good," she replied with a sigh and a smile. "Very good."

A Chosen's Ascension: The Path To Omniscience

A man is thrust into the depths of a twisted set of Trials that not only affect him, but the rest of humanity. If he fails: he receives Death. If he succeeds: he stands a chance of gaining access to the Knowledge of Mysteries of the Universe, the Power to rule Worlds, and the Secrets of Eternal Life. What choices will he make? Find out how a broken egoistic man rewrites his own Destiny. 100PS is an extra Chapter. 50GT is an extra Chapter. Update rate is 2 chapter per day, with chapters having 2000 to 3000 words per chapter. High word count is the reason why the price might be rated higher by Webnovel, so be warned. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Excerpt ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Midas looked around only to hear those restless voices grow louder and louder. All the anger and frustration that the people around him were withholding finally found a way out. The vent was the green skinned lifeform that calmly stood in front of everyone in the square. Agitated people started crowding menacingly around the lifeform, almost as if they would be overcome with violence. "Wait, Wait, What the fuck are you talking about? We don't know who or what you are, and we don't care!" "Yeah! We wanna go home!" "Let us out!" "Yeah! You better let us leave or else we'll f" *BOOM* Right on sight, the heads of twenty odd people who were moving forward seemingly with the intent of stirring trouble all had their heads simultaneously explode. Jets of red blood squirted up from the exposed necks of those people, while the insides of their heads colored the outerwear of the bystanders around them. The steamy red blood immediately created a suffocating atmosphere. Screams and profanities abound as people attempted to move as far away from that green "demon". Some fell over on top of each other, crushing others in the process, others fell on the floor hyperventilating. A piece of flesh landed on Midas' face, but he hadn't even noticed as he was now trying to calm his heart rate while looking around trying to figure out if there was a way he could get away from this situation. "STOP!!", yelled the green lifeform while exuding a terrifying atmosphere about it, and immediately all in the area lost their ability to move or even speak. Midas had never felt such fear in his entire life. Every molecule of DNA in his body was telling him that at that moment in time, his life wasn't in his hands. All he could do was stay still and watch the green lifeform while his ears throbbed with the sound of his own racing heartbeat. "Now that I have your attention, let me continue with my explanation. I will explain this once and once only. The planetary body that you lower beings call 'Earth' has Awakened, and thus it has attained it's right to undergo Planetary Ascension. You all have been chosen by your planet and your performance from now on will determine what will happen to your home planet. If you succeed a whole new Universe will open up to you. Knowledge, and Wisdom that will teach you Evolution. However, If you fail, your planetary body will have it's right of existence revoked... That is … Death." "..." None of the Chosen could say anything at that moment, but their expressions held visions of disbelief, excitement, confusion and despair. Right then, there was a high pitched sound and almost immediately everyone realised that they could now move again. Many fell on the floor from their muscle strain and tense emotional states but that did not stop the green lifeform from continuing it's speech. "Well, it seems we're all on the same page. Now, let's begin the 7 Trials."

Young Master's PoV: Woke Up As A Villain In A Game One Day

"Now you see?" she shouted in a mix of annoyance and disappointment. "You can't outsmart Scrients! They're the most intelligent beings across the two realms." "You're right," I muttered, averting my gaze with a heavy sigh. "I made a mistake. I was too arrogant to think that a mere human like me could fool them." —BOOM!! "Heik! Wh-What was that?" "Hmm? I'm not sure. Maybe you should go and ask the most intelligent beings across the two realms. Oh wait, you can't. I killed them all.” ______ My name is Samael Kaizer Theosbane. On the last day of high school, I got into a fight with a kid I used to bully. It was a stupid, pointless scuffle, and in the middle of it, I tripped and hit my head on a rock. That’s when the memories came flooding in - the memories of another life, of a different world. Suddenly, everything made a twisted kind of sense. I realized two things. First, I was in a game I used to play in my past life. Second, I was a villain. A villain! Not the cool and mysterious kind, either. No, my destiny was to be manipulated and die a dog's death! I was the worst type of cliché: an ungrateful, privileged, insufferable young master. The sort you'd find in those poorly written fantasy stories. The kind everyone hates — a snobby brat from a powerful noble family who thinks he owns the world just because he was born with a silver spoon lodged in his mouth. You know the type. The one the hero beats to a pulp to prove his worth. Yeah, I was that guy. And the hero? The hero was the kid I’d been bullying all this time. The same one I got into a fight with. He was the supposed savior of this damned world. A world teetering on the edge of destruction, beset by wars, calamities, and a grim future that only I knew. And at the end of it all, the final antagonist of the game, the undefeatable boss… the Spirit King, was waiting. But could I even make it to the end? Could I conquer a game where defeat was the only certainty? A game that was now my reality! “Ah, fuck it.” I had no idea if I could, but I sure as hell was going to try. Extorting extras, manipulating main characters, twisting the story to my advantage, stealing the hero’s cheat items, killing villains before they could become threats - nothing was beneath me. Would the main characters be affected? Who cares! Would the story change? Even better! All I cared about was me—my survival, my life, my choices. “I will live this life with no regrets.” …But as I soon discovered, fate was not easily changed. And the price of altering one's destiny was steep.

The War Orchestrated By Gods

In a universe connected to our own. Gods exist and make themselves known, there were 2 gods that were in constant argueing about whom was more powerful or could create the more powerful beings. Eventually they came to an agreement to create a race of creatures built for combat. So both of them created a half of the planet and a humanity in their own vision, granting them power, free will, potential, and each rose a champion with a gift. When a person dies in our world, their soul gets transported to this plain, implanted in the soil. Judged on their lives, and depending on their actions they will be an avatar of 1 of the 2 gods. Rimoto created a humanity in his vision with elitism and an elegance, while Zinora created a humanity of comradery and freedom. Rimoto's humanity rewards those that are born gifted and those that are not will be serving those whom are. Zinora's humanity allows anyone to participate and become worthy additions to the gifted. Rimoto made a system where one's worthiness gets tested through trials to overcome. When the gods created their humanities they agreed that making their own souls would be unfair since both would just bring the strongest of the strong into existence and have them duke it out. Instead, they made a pact with the god of our universe, for those that are willing can be transported to participate in this glorious war after they are released from their mortal shells. Upon arrival into the new world, your soul gets embedded into the soil of our planet and your deeds, morality, accomplishments, get judged. this judgement results in your potential. Once your potential is granted, you will be sent to either Rimoto or Zinora whom will welcome you to their side and fill you in on why you are here, you are free to live your life in the way you want, but a war will wage in 10 years time where both factions will clash. The losing side will be wiped off the planet, and sent back to their own universe, while the winning faction may live on and continue their existence without interference from the gods. With that information being told you are given your wings white from Rimoto & black from Zinora that can be reverted back into your body if you dont want to use them or not have the penalty to your power, it cuts more than half of your capability when they're out. The rules of living on this planet are a bit different, we don't HAVE to eat, we don't HAVE to drink, we don't HAVE to breathe, we only have 1 organ which is our heart, on the inside is just a circuit of thick wiring connected to our heart. that transports energy through our entire body. When the first generation of souls got raised both factions were next to each other looked the opposing faction in the eyes and disdain was brewed among them because they knew they would have to clash, and their gods told them those that are not the same as they are were to be considered their enemy. After the gods told all of them no major conflicts were allowed until the scheduled war 10 years later. Both gods gifted 1 of their warriors a blessing echoing telepathically announcing the gift to their champion. with a heavenly booming voice both gods tell them ''You have been chosen to be my champion, you are gifted to master all 8 fields : power, speed, defense, energy control, healing, destruction, flight, creation. what you do with this gift is up to you'' Rimoto's champion Helega, announced it to all subjects whom idolized her for being the chosen one. Zinora's champion Jore, remained silent about it, keeping it a secret as the factions went their own way. This story will follow Zinora's faction,

Surrendering to Insanity

Avery: Aside from his mother, Avery is the only omega in a family full of alphas. As the youngest of four, he was strongly loved and heavily supported as he decided to make a name for himself as an artist. However, rather than filling him with warmth and passion like it once used to, he began feeling empty inside whenever he painted or drew. The night before his freshman orientation at the university he was going to attend, he made up his mind to deffer his enrollment and step away from art entirely. At nineteen years old, this one decision would not only alter the course of his future, but lead him to finding the answers to questions he desparatley searched for, "Why do I paint? Who do I paint for? What am I trying to say?". Even after taking a step back from his greatest passion, art is the only thing he has on his mind. Feeling lost and confused, a seemingly meaningless decision and one unfortunate situation leads him into the arms of an alpha he has never met. Though he was in heat, Avery has never been more sure of anything in his life as he was about this man. This was his alpha, and he would do anything in his ability to make sure it stayed that way. Kai: At twenty-four years old, Kai's life has been nothing but difficult. Having been abused by his mother after his father walked out on them as a baby, he could have easily wound up down the wrong path in life. Instead, despite everything he has been through, he graduated high scool and then went straight to work. Now Kai is a modest owner of a bar, living in a studio apartment and sending what wages he can to the mother who blamed him for her life. Harboring deep seeded guilt for the way his mother has lived, Kai swore he would never get involved romantically with anyone, much less an omega, lest he resign them to the same fate of his mother. However, that all changed when he was walking to work one evening and smelled the frightened pheromones of an omega in heat. He followed the scent to a young and incapacitated Avery, and decided that he needed to help him before things got worse. Carrying him back to his apartment, he did everything he could to reassure Avery and make sure that he was safe. He ran down to the corner store that was right next to his apartment and purchased some inhibitors to help with Avery 's heat... But when he returned he quickly realized that they would not work.

Pause nel tennis: come passare il tempo tra un set e l’altro

Il gioco del tennis è una passione che, se contagia, difficilmente vi abbandonerà. Questo sport fatto di potenza, rispetto e adrenalina sta guadagnandosi il posto che gli spetta nel mondo delle competizioni a livello nazionale e internazionale e, assistere a una partita dal vivo o in televisione (soprattutto in questo periodo di pandemia) è un’emozione sempre forte fino all’ultimo game. Se anche voi tuttavia state assistendo a un set particolarmente monoto, oppure state aspettando l’inizio di quello successivo e non sapete come passare il tempo, ecco qualche consiglio! Cosa fare tra un set e l’altro: qualche consiglio Pronti per qualche consiglio? Forse qualcuno vi sembrerà banale, visto che la pausa tra un set e l’altro di solito è molto breve, ma vi permetterà di far passare il tempo in un batter d’occhio per poi tornare alla vostra partita. https://www.oasport.it/2021/04/pause-nel-tennis-come-passare-il-tempo-tra-un-set-e-laltro/ Fare qualche esercizio. Il movimento è una delle buone pratiche per avere uno stile di vita sano, ma spesso non troviamo mail l’occasione o il tempo per correre o anche solo fare qualche esercizio. Questo momento di pausa potrebbe essere la “scusa” buona per allenarsi iniziando per gradi. Partite da qualche minuto di addominali, dorsali e piegamenti, per poi allungare gli esercizi e renderli una costanza nella vostra routine. Giocare online. Navigare con il telefonino (o al pc se lo avete acceso) è un altro passatempo su cui potete puntare mentre aspettate che riparta il tennis. I giochi online tra cui scegliere sono tantissimi, da quelli più interattivi, ai giochi di società o d’azzardo come Book of Ra soldi veri o simili. Ordinare la spesa. Fare la spesa online, soprattutto quando non si è tranquilli a uscire di casa o si vuole un servizio comodo ed efficiente, è la scelta migliore da prendere. Iniziare a selezionare la spesa per la settimana è un recupero di tempo prezioso, per questo ve lo consigliamo per passare il tempo in queste occasioni. Iniziare quel libro da troppo in sospeso. Quel libro che da tanto volevate iniziare vi sta chiamando: cominciate leggendo qualche pagina e sicuramente avrete sfruttato il tempo nella maniera migliore. Organizzare le ferie. Per chi e se si potrà andare in vacanza, la scelta della destinazione e del programma delle ferie è uno studio curato da fare man mano qualche mese prima di partire. Perché non iniziate a controllare online i luoghi, i prezzi e i servizi in modo da iniziare a farvi un piano? !
