As a newbie writer, this is my very first novel, and I hope you enjoy the journey as you dive into the shadows.

When Ada's father is framed for a crime he didn't commit, she and her four best friends set out to find the truth. But as their investigation deepens, Ada begins to unravel shocking secrets about those closest to her. The tension rises when her feelings for Luke, one of her besties, become undeniable. Though they fight against their attraction, they eventually give in, adding further complications to an already dangerous situation. The real turning point comes when betrayal strikes close to home. Nathan, a close friend she once had a crush on, reveals his feelings for her-feelings so strong that they prevent him from going through with a deadly mission. In the final confrontation, Ada is faced with a choice to kill him, but not before witnessing the tragic death of her cousin. The loss shakes her to the core and forces Ada to confront the truth about her family: they've secretly ruled the underworld for generations. This revelation sends Ada into a downward spiral, and with her family's fate hanging in the balance, she's pushed to embrace her darker side. Her softness could cost them all, and she learns that only by hardening her heart can she protect the ones she loves. The journey forces Ada to become someone unrecognizable-cold, determined, and powerful. What she doesn't know is that this dark transformation will forever change her, and those around her, in ways she could never have predicted.

Guys here is my pitch..... In the sprawling world of fantasy, we’ve often been treated to tales of heroes reincarnated with divine blessings, legendary powers, or cheat-like abilities, thrust into magical lands as shining saviors—or chaotic terrors. But what happens when the very concept of reincarnation becomes a curse? When the divine boon is a big fat joke, and the "cheat system" doesn’t quite… cheat? Enter John, the unluckiest reincarnate. Blessed by a god and thrust into a fantasy world, he dreams of glory, power, and adventure—only to wake up as a normal, utterly powerless bird. Not a mythical phoenix, not an ancient thunder eagle. Just… a bird. To make matters worse, this world is no ordinary realm. It's a land scarred by the devastating legacies of past isekai’d heroes and villains, whose reckless exploits piled skeletons into mountains and turned their cheats into harbingers of chaos. Fed up with these unruly intruders, the ancients of the realm banded together to create a world-shaking seal: all reincarnated souls are trapped in the bodies of harmless animals, confined to isolated sanctuaries that function more like fantasy zoos. Here’s the twist: this isn’t mercy. It’s a resource grab. The powerful beast tamers of this realm have turned these reincarnated souls into exotic pets, prized for their cheat-like potential. John finds himself at the bottom of the food chain in every sense. His cheat doesn’t work. His human form is gone. And his world is filled with predatory cultivators who see him as either a snack or a tool. But John isn’t one to give up so easily. What starts as despair quickly turns into cunning survival. With wings and wit as his only tools, John must navigate layers of misfortune, dodge fate’s sharp talons, and cheat his way through a world determined to keep him grounded. Get ready to join John on a wildly unconventional journey—one where reincarnation isn’t a ticket to greatness, but a death sentence he’s determined to rewrite. His story is one of humor, wit, and persistence, as he explores a world where he is the joke and his survival is the punchline. Main tags: reincarnation/isekai, beast taming cultivation system, comedy, action, adventure. Of course No-harem!

Rule of seduction number four, set the stage and make sure it looks real, if you get caught up in your own web of lies all is lost.
