Seval's life had always been a whirlwind, molded by encounters with forces beyond human understanding. His story was a chaotic blend of wonder and peril, where moments of joy were shadowed by the looming specter of danger. The mysteries and cosmic threads that entwined with his fate had both lifted him to exhilarating heights and dragged him through chilling depths. Now, standing at the threshold of his home, a place that once symbolized comfort, Seval felt an emptiness that gnawed at his core. The adrenaline-fueled years had worn on him, each battle and revelation leaving indelible marks not just on his body but on his spirit. He had fought and survived where others might have surrendered, always bracing for the next storm. But now, in the fragile calm that surrounded him, the quiet seemed almost deafening. The echoes of his past reverberated through the silence, taunting him with memories he would rather forget yet could never ignore. Seval exhaled sharply, feeling the weight of unspoken fears pushing down on him. The house was filled with reminders of simpler times—trinkets and mementos that had survived the chaos he called his life. Yet, their presence was bittersweet. He knew he needed to find a way to piece himself back together, to reclaim the peace that felt so distant. But as he sat in the stillness, trying to catch the right current that would guide him to peace, his thoughts drifted back to the shadows that still lurked in his mind, threatening to devour what little contentment remained. He wasn’t sure how to face it. The choice lay ahead: to let the past consume him or to push forward, finding his flow amid the tangled web of his own fears.

Aina is the faithful servant of an illustrious ducal family, the Signavits. A family as mysterious as it is fascinating, whose members remain cloistered in a mansion at the top of an impenetrable mountain and their faces perpetually covered by masks.

"Who, miss?" she replied, unsure of what the latter was talking about. She tilted her head, as if she didn't understand. "My doll." 'Oh... The doll.' [...] "She is very pretty, but why is she locked up?" she couldn't contain her curiosity. The girl lowered her eyes, to slip them on her soft toy, whose neck she caressed in an affectionate manner, giving the scene a sinister atmosphere. "So that she doesn't escape"

Umm. I have no idea where the story is going so I can’t put a synopsis yet. I can say that it is GL and takes place in the apocalypse though. (P.S. It’s my first time publishing one of my stories so I’m sorry if I drop it) Disclaimer: The cover picture is not mine! It’s from Memento Mori. You should go play it if you like the pretty art!

"A few months ago, I would have easily said that you would simply be mine if I wanted it that way.", the taller one continued after a few breaths before he even began to smirk. "A frightening thought, don't you think?", his voice softened. Became more wary. As if he were talking about something forbidden that no one else should hear. Before I could respond to that, though, a shallow touch on my wrist stopped me in my tracks and disappeared before a single sound could leave my lips. "I'm greedy. Envious of Maynard for being watched by you with so much affection and love.", the light-haired man confessed. "Just once. Just once, I want to be looked at from those eyes.", my counterpart whispered, now carefully embracing my forearm. Pulled it closer, which is why I inevitably took a small step in his direction as well. "Not because I have blue blood in me. Not because I have successfully emerged from battles or negotiations. Nor because I later gained power as crown prince and king.", with each word Awin regained more and more of his confident tone. "You never had any hidden agenda. Loved Maynard plain and simple. Was just a woman who loved a man and it was foolish. So foolish, Kalea." The expression on his face changed, however I couldn't quite explain it or even interpret it. "And yet, in doing so, you were the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.", the king murmured as he now gently placed my hand on his chest. Through the fabric it was possible for me to sense his fast beating heart. It seemed to literally race, which is why I could not help it. I looked at him in disbelief, since he usually made a terribly indifferent impression towards me. "Being watched with the same affection just once would be enough for me. I'll give you the world if it satisfies you. Juste give me a chance to change your image of me, please.", Awin whispered. Seemed almost pleading, which was incredibly out of character for him.

God, I'd kill to live like a koi permanently. (A one shot)

Aina est la fidèle servante d'une illustre famille ducale, les Signavit. Une famille aussi mystérieuse que fascinante, dont les membres demeurent cloitrés dans un manoir au sommet d'une impénétrable montagne et le visage perpétuellement couvert par des masques. Malgré tout, elle ne questionna jamais son existence, où l'attitude de ses maîtres et maîtresses, parce que cet endroit était la seule chose qu'elle avait toujours connue. Enfin... Jusqu'à ce que l'un d'entre eux disparaisse mystérieusement. Dès lors, elle entreprit de faire la lumière sur ce mystère, sans savoir que celui-ci actionnait la roue du destin et qu'elle allait retrouver bien plus, dans sa quête de la vérité, que ce qu'elle cherchait au départ... Sans penser que tout ceci allait la ramener des années en arrière, au sein d'une vie dont elle n'avait plus aucun souvenir.

Elle inclina la tête, comme si elle ne comprenait pas. « Ma poupée. » 'Oh... La poupée.' [...] « Elle est très jolie, mais pourquoi est-elle enfermée ? » ne put-elle retenir sa curiosité. L'intéressée baissa les yeux, pour les glisser sur sa peluche, dont elle caressait le cou de manière affectueuse, donnant à la scène une atmosphère sinistre. « Pour qu'elle ne s'échappe pas. »
