WSA 2025 entry. Lady Melisandre ‘Lisa’ Belmont was a young, French beauty wrongfully accused and publicly executed for crimes she did not commit. Mysteriously reborn as a contender for a modern day American variety games and entertainment show. In this new lifetime she's claimed the body of a beautiful aspiring actress who got fed up with constantly being duped by her conniving manager. The last straw was being forced to marry a complete stranger. Coerced to sign up as a married couple for a reality tv show where contestants vie to win the coveted Shadowhurst legacy. Rumored to be an inheritance worth billions that was left behind by the elderly recluse Eleanor Shadowhurst. What might be an ideal situation for the other women is a nightmare for Lisa who wakes up trapped in a marriage she never wanted. A sense of guilt for taking over the owner’s body makes Lisa not want to do anything that would jeopardize her career as an actress. She has no choice but to play along as Lisa can see no way out of the contract which seems pretty ironclad. After reading the contract, she realizes that it may be beneficial as long as the couple doesn't get eliminated before reaching the top ten. Lisa stands a chance to win a lifetime of lucrative endorsement deals & royalties, that can only help boost her career as an actress. Win or lose Lisa will still get paid by her husband the enigmatic and handsome Bane Shadowhurst as long as she does nothing to cause a scandal or get the couple disqualified early. His main stipulation is that Lisa pretends to be in love with Bane. They must awkwardly overcome their differences and live with other competing couples on a sprawling, isolated estate located on an island not found on any map. Every need is met, every comfort is provided, even the security of the mansion is world renown for its defense. All of these couples have secrets and are fleeing from their own personal traumas. It seems like the opportunity of a lifetime until the unthinkable happens. Hysteria grows as suspicious accidents escalate, couples feel their personal safety is threatened as the security system is repeatedly breached. Everything is hush hush, the handlers, the producers and media company can’t be trusted. Life hangs in the balance as the group is slowly cut off from the outside world. An insidious intelligence wants to stop Lisa from leaving the island alive. It will stop at nothing to dominate Lisa against her will, invoke terror and consume her soul. Only true love can overcome the insidious evil and save their souls. Lisa will just have to search her heart before it's too late and never trust a shadow after dark.

"Reality is strange. One moment, I'm having breakfast with my friends in a French café. The next, I'm in a dimension where time and space don’t exist. All of this, only to end up in another world, forced to choose: return to the grave or become someone new. If you were in my shoes, which would you choose?" This is the story of Dalton Xavier, a law student at Oxford University, whose life is turned upside down when he and his friends are transported to the kingdom of Allytheón, in the world of Asgardia. Here, magic is real, and everything once thought impossible is now achievable. Moral choices are constantly tested, and in Allytheón, nothing is as it seems. Every step Dalton takes brings him closer to secrets that could either save or destroy this new world — and himself.

Liu Yang's life used to revolve around a few simple truths: If the king crab wasn't fresh enough to pinch him back, it wasn't worth eating. Kobe beef? Only the finest cuts would grace his plate. And don't even think about uncorking a bottle of French wine that wasn't old enough to run for president. But then fate hit the cosmic snooze button, and Liu Yang woke up in a parallel universe where his platinum credit card was about as useful as a screen door on a submarine. Michelin-starred restaurants? Ha! He couldn't even afford the valet parking. Kobe beef? More like "look but don't touch, peasant." As if that wasn't bad enough, he'd been reincarnated as the owner of a hole-in-the-wall diner where burning a simple egg was considered a culinary triumph. Just when Liu Yang was resigning himself to a lifetime of serving up gastronomic atrocities... Enter the System. The Duplication System, to be exact. How's it work? Simple. Stare at someone for three seconds, copy their skills, profit. Rinse and repeat until you've collected more abilities than a Swiss Army knife. But this isn't just a story about a chef leveling up faster than a video game protagonist on a Red Bull binge. Oh no, this is a tale of a trust fund baby determined to conquer the multiverse, one hair-brained scheme at a time.

Follow the story and rise of a warrior from a family that once ruled the mighty Roman Empire, but after centuries now on another continent, he needs to establish himself as the man who will unify what the Western Romans created in the New World. Augustus Theodosius Maximus will face great enemies such as the frenchs, english, spanish and even the prussians.This alternative history takes place in the 18th century and 19th century , in which what would be the current United States, Mexico, Canada and Cuba, would be the Caesarian Empire that lasted from 486 to 1648, when the province of New Rome was taken by the Dutch and a few years later sold to the English and establishing territories in the former Caesarian provinces, leaving only a few Caesarian states made of buffer states such as the Grand Duchy of New Ravenna (state of Florida in real life), the Serene Republic of Londinium (state of Alabama in real life) and the Praetorian Confederacy (state of Tennessee in real life).So expect a series of upheavals, coups d'état and revolutions in the Caesarean provinces lost to the Europeans, as the period of reunification will last from 1772 until 1815.

Synopsis: Life was already tough as an overworked game developer, but waking up in the world of Eldoria, the fantasy game I helped create, was not part of the plan. Worse, I wasn't reborn as the hero, the villain, or even a powerful ally—I became Kim Jiyoung, the childhood friend of the protagonist, Clara. Kim Jiyoung is kind, loyal, and hardworking... but he's also doomed to die in a month. His tragic death is the catalyst for Clara’s awakening, unlocking her legendary powers and setting her on the path to defeat the Shadow King. But I'm not ready to die—not even for the sake of the story. Armed with my knowledge of the game’s plot and mechanics, I’ll rewrite this fate myself. Can I survive in a world I know too well, help Clara awaken without sacrificing my life, and maybe even forge my own legend? This is my second chance, and I won’t let it end in tragedy. After all, who says the childhood friend can’t rewrite the script?
