In a world where the boundaries between the supernatural and human heart blur, Zuria and Zoe are two women caught in a war between love, power, and an ever-encroaching darkness that threatens to destroy everything they know. Zuria, once a hopeful soul, is now broken by betrayal. Her heart is chained to Fin, a vampire whose promises of love and power have bound her to a life of torment and manipulation. Possessing the ability to control life energy itself, Zuria's powers grow uncontrollably, fed by the torment of her heart and the dark desires of the man who claims to love her. Trapped in a cycle of abuse, Zuria must confront the horrifying choices laid before her—sacrifice her humanity to survive, or surrender herself to the darkness threatening to consume her from within. With each passing day, the line between love and monstrosity blurs, and Zuria’s desperate need to escape becomes a race against time before she becomes the very monster she’s afraid to become. Zoe, a young woman grieving the sudden deaths of her mother and father, is left adrift in a world that no longer makes sense. Consumed by questions of life and death, she stumbles upon a hidden power within herself, awakening the ability to absorb the life force of nature. But with power comes corruption. As Zoe delves deeper into her newfound abilities, dark forces begin to stir, threatening to unravel her sanity and push her to the brink of self-destruction. As she unlocks the secrets of her power, she discovers a deeper connection to the supernatural world—and to Zuria—than she ever could have imagined. Their fates are bound together, unbeknownst to them, as dark forces from both sides of the supernatural realm collide. Christian, a demon scarred by a past of betrayal, is drawn to Zoe, tasked with protecting her from those who seek to use her as a weapon of destruction. But Zoe’s power is not the only thing that attracts Christian—something deeper, something fated, pulls him toward her. Meanwhile, Loki, the prince of Hell, watches from the shadows, his eyes set on Zuria. He believes her power could tip the balance of the war between Heaven and Hell, and he will stop at nothing to claim her as his own. As the battle lines are drawn, each woman must choose her path. Will Zuria escape the grip of the vampire who holds her heart in chains, or will she embrace the darkness that has taken root within her? Can Zoe harness her power in time to stop the ancient forces closing in on her, or will she be consumed by the darkness threatening to swallow her whole? The world as we know it teeters on the edge of destruction. A war is coming, one that will see realms clash, and forces of light and dark vie for control. Allies will be tested, and betrayals will shape the course of history. In a world of broken promises, blood-soaked contracts, and impossible choices, love will be the greatest weapon, and survival the ultimate prize. Will Zuria and Zoe save the world from the impending war between Olympus and Hell, or will their powers become the very thing that shatters it? In a final battle where every soul is at stake, both women must confront their darkest fears, confront the monsters within, and decide how far they are willing to go to claim their fates. Light and dark, love and betrayal—only one can emerge victorious.

[Action/Science Fantasy/Battle Academy] Updating daily through Arc 1 One hundred years ago, being diagnosed with the "affliction" was the kiss of death. Whether by mutation or firing squad, Linnaeans lived notoriously tragic lives. The few that lived suffered from irreversible mutations. These creatures, few as they were, inspired legends of werewolves, mermaids, and sirens. Then came the treatments for the Linnaean affliction. The discovery of temporary gene repression meant that the development of mutations could be slowed and managed. This created an "unholy" new race that shared the DNA of both humans and animals. Feared and hated by the outside world, they created a stronghold to develop their medicines and amass their power. Today, Linnaeans from all over the continent live in the City of Mendel and train under the renowned Professor Corax, a brilliant and eccentric geneticist. Just before her eighteenth birthday, Ember is diagnosed with the affliction. Suddenly, instead of moving into her dorms and studying with the brightest in the country, she is whisked off to the City of Mendel by government officials who are as scared of her as she is of them. As she contends with a new city and her own treatment, she'll also have to face the tension of the half-baked treaty between the Linnaean people and the outside world. There's no doubt - life won't be easy in a city where the population is able to harness the abilities (and instincts) of animals. ----------------------------------------------------- Also available on Royal Road, Scribblehub, and Spacebattles Forum.

For years, he knew only stillness. Confined to a body that refused to move, unable to speak or act, his world was reduced to the smallest of motions—a blink, a breath. He had lived on the fringes of existence, watching life pass him by while his dreams withered, unreachable. On modern-day Earth, his broken body had long sentenced him to a life of quiet despair. Then the world changed. When the heavens split and the Cultivation Assist System descended, the rules of reality were rewritten. The Awakening brought power, opportunity, and a spark of hope to every corner of the world. For him, it brought a miracle: the chance to heal. The system mended the broken shell that had confined him for so long, restoring his strength and granting him the body he had always longed for. For the first time in years, he stood, felt the earth beneath his feet, and believed he could rise alongside the world’s new era. But even miracles have limits. While others rushed into the grand Pagodas—the centers of knowledge and cultivation where the strongest paths began—he was denied entry. Barred from the heart of the Awakening, he was forced to endure its trials on the outskirts. Every step forward came harder for him than it did for others. He clawed and fought for scraps of the opportunities others seemed to have handed to them. But he did not stop. Through sheer determination, he began to ascend. Slowly but surely, he carved out his place in the new world, defying the odds and the whispers of those who doubted him. He could see the life he had dreamed of—freedom, power, and the chance to soar—just within reach. But the world was not as kind as he believed. Just as he reached for the heights he had fought so hard to claim, betrayal struck. The knife that ended his life came not from an enemy, but from someone he thought loved him. The warmth of trust turned to the cold sting of death, and in his final moments, as the darkness took him, he wondered how he could have been so blind. But death was not the end. When he awakens again, in a new life and body, the memories of his first remain vivid and sharp. The struggles, the triumphs, and the bitter sting of betrayal—they burn within him, forging a determination that will not be silenced. The Cultivation Assist System is still there, but the rules of his second life are different, and the world he returns to is even more dangerous than before. Ashes to Apex follows the journey of a young man who rose from nothing, fought against impossible odds, and was struck down before he could truly soar. It is a tale of rebirth, ambition, and the unyielding drive to rise beyond the limits of fate. As the embers of his first life ignite a new flame, one question remains: How far can he rise before the ashes of his past threaten to consume him once more?

Whispers of a deadly prophecy surround Serena, murmurs that she alone holds the power to unravel centuries of suffering. Yet her greatest threat-and temptation-lies in the golden-eyed king whose icy exterior conceals secrets darker than the abyss. He rules with cruelty, yet something about her stirs the embers of a long-extinguished fire within him. As tensions rise between mortal and god, Serena must navigate a court full of deceit, rivalries, and betrayals. Bound by fate but divided by hatred, she and Zade are forced into a dangerous dance where every step could mean their undoing-or the salvation of worlds. She vows to resist him. He swears to break her. But when a love this fierce burns, will it destroy them both?

Now.”  The temperature dropped around them, Seraphim could see her breath, and her breathing was ragged as it drew in the sharp air.  Harriette’s body began to quiver as she too, sensed the shift in the air. But before they could move, a figure emerged from the shadows of the trees. It was unlike anything Seraphim had ever seen—a towering, hunched creature cloaked in darkness.
