Pearl Jam Last Kiss

She was meant to be powerless. Instead, she became unstoppable. Lysandra was nothing more than a servant, a forgotten girl in the household of a powerful politician. When his cruelty turned to violence, she cried out for salvation, and something answered. The goddess Velmira gifted her a power both intoxicating and dangerous: any man who shared intimacy with her would fall under her influence, some bound by devotion, others driven to madness. With each step, Lysandra wielded her gift to escape servitude, rising through the ranks of power, manipulating the most ruthless men in the kingdom. But not all are susceptible to her touch. A rare few remain immune, and one of them, Ravenna, the wife of her first victim, has sworn to destroy her. As Lysandra weaves through a web of politics, seduction, and betrayal, she finds herself facing an impossible choice: Does she embrace the power that has lifted her from nothing? Or risk everything for a love that asks for nothing in return? YOU WILL LOVE THIS!

Using the brain as an Axis to process large amounts of data, an Advance Computer was made that is faster, accurate and more efficient than Quantum Computers. The only downside was it consumed an infinite amount of energy within a short period of time and also make the human brain stop functioning after prolonged use. Nevertheless, when a looming threat of destruction encroached on Earth for the second time due to excessive Energy emitted by Beta Asteroid Core, humanity decided to use the Advance Computer to siphon away the excess Energy! And the fastest way to do that was to make a VR MMORPG Cabin that will allow billions of people to dive in and make use of the Energy. **** Seth was born with a very low body constitution that made him almost a cripple due to his body getting stressed very fast from any extended physical activity. He escaped reality by gaming and when he met with an accident he stopped gaming. But when the ultimate game was out, Asteroid Online, Seth was asked to dive again. Sadly, he found an exact replica of his real-life body in the game. At first, he detested it, but on that first day, Seth was intrigued by the game and wished to explore more. To his utter shock, when he raised his Skills to Talent in the game, his real-life skill also improved. A series of other unexplainable events keep happening to him which steel his resolve to crack the game mystery. **** I don't know if the concept of this story was used before but I have not seen it anywhere. So, the story may have its unique concept and slightly different classes that were used in other VR Games. Don't worry, you will not be disappointed!

Her parents would ground her forever, if they knew about what she had done. Her nightmares were gruelling, she had no answers and didn’t know where to look for it either. And therefore, she was quite upset that night and had mistakenly taken some pills for her headache. But she should have known better. The result, a video of her from that party was about to be circulated. And she had no idea how to stop it or get out this situation. She did not dare to go to her parents for help and all her friends had abandoned her. Just as she was about to give up, and surrender to the consequences of her mistake, Pearl meets Edwina, who offers her a helping hand. Edwina promises to undo everything, make the video vanish. Even the person who made that video and was blackmailing her.. if that was the only way to save Pearl. And nobody would know a thing about this incident or the video. The catch? Pearl had to search for a girl. Edwina did not know her name, but had a picture of hers. If Pearl does not manage to find this girl in three months, then Edwina would leak the video. But, this time it would be to a media house.. and that would be worse than it getting circulated in her school. But, then again.. as soon as Pearl looks at the picture of the girl Edwina wants her to find, she is dumbfounded. The girl in the picture was the same girl, Pearl had been dreaming about. The freaking nightmare girl! This increases her curiosity, because only Edwina or this girl can answer all her question. Why Pearl kept seeing this girl every night and why did she always wake up feeling depressed. Because, Edwina refuses to give her any detail and they don’t know where this girl was. Pearl uses her social media power and her parent’s connections to look for this girl, as soon as she can. This girl holds the key to most of her life’s problem and Pearl wanted answers. But, how would she find this girl? And did this girl know anything about the nightmares Pearl was having? Three month is fast approaching, but neither Pearl nor Edwina had succeeded in finding this girl. Until, one day Pearl finds that girl standing in front of her.
