Lab Rats Leo

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."

Great War On Valentine Land

Plot Summary: In a vast world divided by supernatural forces, three kingdoms have thrived for centuries, each sealed off from them with barrier by ancient laws created by a cosmic entity. The Nation of Humans, ruled by the wise but formidable King Lucus, has remained isolated for more than two hundred years. Meanwhile, the Nation of Vampires, led by the enigmatic and ruthless Lord Valentine, has stood untouched for over three centuries. And in a dimension between realms lies the Nether World, home to the demonic Nation of Demons, commanded by the fearsome Demon King Vulcan. Each kingdom is bound by a strict decree: no contact or passage between worlds. Only the gods and ancient forces know why these realms are held apart. But beneath the surface, there is a looming tension: the prophecy of a Great War of Blood, a cataclysmic battle for the power of the God of Justice, meant to restore balance between nations. This war, which erupts every 2,000 years, grants control over the forces of the universe: fire, water, thunder, dark energy, nature, and more. Main Character: The story follows Leo de Grace, a young man born in the Human Nation with no magic—a rarity in a world where nearly everyone possesses mystical abilities. After being abandoned by his parents, Leo was raised by his caring aunt, Luna de Grace, a member of a prestigious family. Though lacking in magic, Leo displays extraordinary intellect and physical strength, making him unique among his peers and earning him great respect despite his differences. When Leo reaches the age to attend the prestigious Lucus University of Knowledge, his life takes an unexpected turn. A mysterious incident disrupts the Freshers’ Ceremony, leading him to become the first human ever to attend the Vampire University in Lord Valentine’s kingdom. The Vampire Nation and the Mystery: In the Vampire Nation, Leo must confront his own limits, learning to survive in a society far different from his own. Here, he encounters powerful beings, including mysterious vampires who are wary of his presence. Though he lacks magic, Leo’s resilience, intelligence, and unexpected physical prowess attract both respect and suspicion. The Vampire Nation is steeped in lore and mystery, and Leo finds himself drawn to ancient stories of the God of Justice, the entity whose power could potentially end or ignite another Great War of Blood. The War for Justice’s Power: As the days pass, rumors of the Great War grow stronger. Tensions between humans, vampires, and demons increase as each kingdom learns of the approaching battle for the power to claim Justice’s gifts. While Leo grapples with his place in a world divided by magic and bloodlines, he discovers a hidden destiny that intertwines with the upcoming war. Leo's Journey and the Call of Destiny: Through trials of strength, wisdom, and courage, Leo must navigate through the politics of the Vampire Nation and form alliances with vampires, humans, and possibly demons. As he grows, he uncovers hidden potential within himself, a power he never knew existed. This power could be the key to uniting the three realms or might trigger the Great War of Blood. Themes and Key Elements: Divided Kingdoms: The tension and isolation between humans, vampires, and demons, mirroring real-world divisions. Power and Balance: The search for the God of Justice’s power, representing the quest for balance among all forces. War and Unity: The potential of the Great War of Blood to either tear apart or unite these realms, and the sacrifices necessary for peace. Self-Discovery: Leo’s journey to find strength within himself, beyond magical power, and his quest to determine his place in a world that sees him as an outcast. Leo’s fate is intertwined with that of all three nations, and as he stands on the brink of the Great War of Blood, he must decide not only what kind of man he will become, but what kind of world he wants to create.

When Killer falls in Love (bl)

Leo had been living a peaceful life when, suddenly, his tranquility was shattered by his haunting past. Someone he thought he'd escaped, someone he believed was behind him for good, was now chasing him once more. This time, no matter where Leo ran or hid, the person was relentless—coming for him. ..... Leo’s skin crawled under the touch, his breath shallow as he forced himself to speak. “Stop.” The figure’s eyes flashed with something dark, something possessive. “Stop?” he repeated, his voice a low whisper, like a soft hum in Leo’s ear. “You don’t really want me to stop.” Leo’s heart pounded, his vision blurring at the edges. “I’m not—” His voice broke, and he clenched his jaw, trying to pull himself together. “I’m not the same person you knew.” The figure’s smile returned, colder now, more menacing. “Neither am I.” Before Leo could react, the figure’s hand wrapped around his wrist, gripping tightly, pulling him closer. Leo gasped, his body stiffening as he was yanked forward, their faces now inches apart. He could feel the figure’s breath on his skin, cold and unsettling, his eyes burning into him with an intensity that made Leo’s stomach twist. “What do you want from me?” Leo’s voice wavered, his chest tightening as the reality of the situation settled in. The figure’s lips curled into a smirk, his grip tightening. “I want you to remember. I want you to feel what you’ve tried to forget.” Leo’s mind raced, his thoughts scrambling for a way out. But before he could say anything, the figure’s hand slid from his wrist to the back of his neck, pulling him in sharply. Their lips collided, a hard, forceful kiss that sent a shock through Leo’s entire body. Leo’s breath hitched, his mind screaming in protest, but his body was frozen, trapped in the overwhelming force of the moment. The figure’s grip tightened, his kiss rough, claiming, as if trying to erase every part of Leo that had moved on, every part that had healed.
