Lobby Shenanigans

Nero Solace, a 17 year old rank 2 plumber receives an offer one day, inviting him to join a company. Unfortunately, the company isn't known for its prestige...

Lucinda Perry, a social recluse and a workaholic, makes a pledge to herself to go all wild on her twenty-fifth birthday and even score a one night stand if she gets her long deserved promotion at work. Few days to her twenty-fifth birthday, she gets promoted to not just a higher position but to the head office in a different city. Having to spend her birthday night in a new city, she goes to the club where she meets a very handsome stranger, Thomas Hank, who offers to be her one night stand after catching a glimpse of her dare-to-do list, which included having a one night stand. Thomas Hank, after having been used by several ladies in the past, is bent on getting the lady of his dreams who would love him for himself and not his wealth. So when he meets the cute and naive Lucinda Perry at the club, he decides to keep his true identity from her and find out if she was worth keeping. ***Excerpt*** What is more entertaining than a crazy side character? Say hello to Sonia and Bryan. Sonia's heart stopped beating for a second, and then different thoughts started flying right through her head at that same time. Bryan Hank? Her celebrity crush was kneeling right in front of her and asking her to be his wife? Was he mistaking her for someone? Was it possible this was a skit, or maybe this was like one of those celebrity pranks, and there were cameras around, waiting to capture her make a fool of herself? Or perhaps she was dreaming? Sonia wondered as she looked around them, but all she saw were curious onlookers. "Please! Be my wife and make me the happiest man on Earth," He said in a very loud voice that caught the attention of everyone. Her editor who she had been waiting on for over an hour because he was trying to sign a deal with a movie producer who was interested in one of her stories, showed up at that moment, "Sonia, you know Bryan Hank?" Her editor asked in genuine surprise as he watched the scene before him. It seemed like an hour had passed since Bryan went on his knees, but it had only been a minute. Bryan knew no lady would be crazy enough to accept such a crazy proposal, and even if any were, paying her off and calling off the whole thing would be easy since all he wanted was the scandal that could come from this. The headlines were either going to be about his rejected Marriage proposal or his supposed engagement, which would be enough to let Sophia off the hook. "Yes!" Sonia said as she bobbed her head excitedly and extended her finger for him to wear her the ring. "Yes?" Bryan asked in confusion when he heard her response. "Yes! I will be your wife and make you the happiest man in the world!" Sonia said with a giggle and wiggled her fingers until Bryan slid the ring down her finger. Surprisingly the ring was her exact size, and it sat on her finger like it was made just for her. The sound of applause erupted all around them as Sonia stood up with a big smile on her face and embraced Bryan before kissing him right on the lips. Bryan was slightly taken aback by her boldness but quickly recovered since this was his game, and he had to play along. He was the one who had approached her first, after all. So when she tried to break the kiss, he held her chin and slowly nibbled on her lower lip before parting her lips with his tongue and sucked on it in a teasing manner, eliciting a moan from Sonia. Sonia felt light-headed. This was too good to be true. It just had to be a dream. How else could she explain that one moment she was seated at the lobby of a hotel waiting for her editor, and the next she was engaged to her celebrity crush and was kissing him right here in the open?

Zein was a rogue Guide living in the god-forsaken land of the red-zone, guiding for money and survival. Until the guild he used to work with caused a tragedy. Driven by sorrow and guilt, Zein became a mercenary guide in the land bordering the forbidden Deathzone, working like a suicidal monk. One day, an overbearing Esper suddenly appeared and told him, “If you’re so hellbent to die, why don’t you come with me to the Deathzone?” A strange proposition, a nostalgic smirk. Had Zein actually met him before? Following the man into the deadly zone, will Zein find the respite he seeks, or will he get engulfed in a storm? But there’s no such thing as love in the deathzone...is it? * * * The story is set in a sentinel-verse, so there will be: - Sentinel (Esper) and Guide - Dungeon! - Romance - Action - …smut? ;) It’s a (kinda) love story wrapped in dungeon system shenanigans, with abilities and action and whatnot

You know how people say "read carefully, you might end up there someday"? Yeah, I should've listened. Here I am, transmigrated into a novel I speed-read while binging forty others. All I remember is some guy named Bonner (seriously, who names their protagonist that?) collecting waifus like they're poker cards at the galaxy's most prestigious academy. Oh, and said academy has the worst security record since... well, ever. The good news? I'm Lloyd Armstrong, son of one of the galaxy's best cybernetic surgeons. The bad news? Everything else. Let's see, I'm a half-breed in a galaxy that treats us like gum stuck to their space-boots, I have no access to the System (you know, the thing that gives LITERALLY EVERYONE ELSE powers). At least I dodged the death trap known as Alexandria Academy. Now I just have to survive an apprenticeship with a war that has been raging for millions of years that spans an entire galaxy. But at least I'm not dealing with the protagonist's plot armor shenanigans, right? ...Right?

In his previous hollow life, Alek was a nobody. After a freak accident (getting rammed by a garbage truck) he gets transported to another world. And not only that, but he becomes the vessel of an ancient evil feared by the mass. Now, granted the opportunity to experience a more eventful life, Alek will waste not a single second to enjoy and make the most of it in the most unhinged and unorthodox way he's never been able to. Well... that's what he hopes. Unfortunately, he has zero to no experience with basic human interaction. Along with his obliviousness, he must go through his new life with the dark and unsettling vibe the people around him think he has. A dark fantasy/comedy about an awkward idiot and his shenanigans.

Aric never wanted to be a hero, let alone the bearer of a cursed sword. But after a series of unfortunate events and some questionable decisions, he finds himself on the run from ancient powers, mercenaries, and a kingdom that would rather see him disappear. With him is his unlikely companion, a mischievous shadow fox known for weaving illusions and bending reality. Joined by a reluctant mage with a shady past and a knight whose moral compass wavers, Aric must survive one misadventure after another. As they uncover hidden truths and forge unexpected alliances, they’re forced to confront enemies and choices far beyond what they bargained for. In a world where fate laughs at the unworthy, can Aric outwit the destiny he never asked for, with only a cursed blade and a cunning fox by his side?

“Have you ever wished that a truck would hit you and you would transmigrate into a world filled with swords and magic? Perhaps you wished that you would be a hero, defeating the villains, protecting the land, and receiving all sorts of admiration and love from the people. I would give you one piece of advice. Perish that thought.” -Ravi West *** Ravi West was a hero of indisputable esteem. As a Sentinel, he traveled the Realms, killing villains and saving entire civilizations. His job was everything to him. Until Luxor. Luxor changed everything. Luxor changed him. Ravi was done. The tiredness etched into his bones. He laid down his mantle and vanished. He chose the most boring planet in his memory for his retirement, except this Earth was not like the one he remembered- Nests, monsters, superheroes, and villains filled the streets but that was not his business. He has a plan, a quiet, uncaring life filled with wine, food, and books. But the New Captain at the Bureau seemed to enjoy shattering all his carefully laid plans. He was the most annoying person Ravi had ever met, blonde hair, the most beautiful blue eyes, and a sunny smile, the righteous Arlen Sinclair constantly got involved in cases much bigger than him, dragging Ravi along into his Shenanigans. **** Grumpy, Cynic Shou who doesn't care if the world burns× Golden Retriever, Righteous Gong who is the first to bring the bucket to save the burning world. #Foundfamily #Sliceoflife, #crime, #mystery, #Superheros, #OverpoweredMc, #Protagonistfallsinlovefirst #MutualPampering #Powercouple #Superpowers #Cooking #Farming #yaoi #Detectives #Villains [This book is participating in the WSA contest] Disclaimer: The book cover to be taken down at owner's request.

Or will the cosmic author finally hit the delete key on his shenanigans? There's only one way to find out. The game is afoot, the dice are loaded, and the house always wins - or does it?
