That Time I Was A Slave By A Demoness

Aiden, a 17-year-old human warlock, was once an ordinary boy living in the mortal realm, juggling part-time jobs to support his terminally ill mother. Her last words to him, “Promise me you’ll live. Don’t let this darkness consume you. You… you deserve happiness,” became a haunting echo in his mind after her passing were a plea he couldn’t fulfill. Aimless and broken, Aiden drifted through life, living off his mother’s death insurance, spending his days in solitude, and feeling the weight of purposelessness crushing him. But life took a cruel turn, and somehow, Aiden found himself in Hell—a realm of hybrids, power struggles, and unimaginable horrors. Struggling to survive in a world where humans are seen as weak, Aiden is thrust into the company of Lilith Maltrix, the golden-haired, horned heiress of the illustrious and feared Maltrix family. Arrogant, cunning, and brimming with talent, Lilith commands the academy with an aura of untouchable power. Her immense influence, derived from her family’s dominance in Hell’s economy and politics, keeps rivals at bay. Yet, despite her own ambitions and countless admirers, Lilith chooses Aiden as her peculiar companion—a decision that baffles and infuriates the academy’s student body. The academy is a brutal proving ground for Hell’s elite and misfits, where power is everything, alliances are fleeting, and survival often depends on cruelty. Here, Aiden is forced to participate in absurd and often grotesque competitions, such as being paraded as Lilith’s "rarest treasure" to advance her family’s business schemes. Despite his protests and unease, Aiden adapts to the cruelty around him, though he clings to his mother’s dying wish to resist being consumed by the darkness. As the story unfolds, Aiden finds himself entangled in Hell’s political machinations, where nobles vie for power, war looms on the horizon, and rivalries threaten even Lilith’s supremacy. Despite her popularity and unrivaled status, Lilith has her share of enemies who are eager to see her fall. Meanwhile, Aiden wrestles with his humanity in a world that sees him as an oddity—both a curiosity and a tool to be used. In the backdrop of carnage, comedy, and chaos, Aiden and Lilith’s unconventional relationship evolves. Through their twisted bond, Aiden begins to uncover a deeper truth about Hell, its society, and the struggles of those who live there. Together, they navigate a realm where even the smallest act of kindness is a rarity, and survival often means becoming the very monster you fear. This is a tale of resilience, dark humor, and an unlikely friendship forged in the depths of Hell—a story that asks what it truly means to live, even when surrounded by darkness.

Rise To Stardom

Orphaned in the old world after taking care of his irresponsible and sick mother for years on end, Kyle finds his life turned upside down. His already dim world turns even gloomier and coupled with his trauma from losing her, Kyle felt like he had lost his purpose in life. Living day by day, akin to a soulless puppet, he struggled to keep his suicidal thoughts in check, all whilst trying to make ends meet as a cabbie. During those dark times, Kyle slowly begins to find solace in the world of music and movies. Even though it had always been there, it truly became something as a bloodline of sorts for him because, individually, both pieces of media, transported him to another world, one where he could feel happy, if even for a fleeting moment. And, as if the universe wanted even more for him, Kyle met some lovely old people, all of whom treated him as the son they never had, making him feel like he had a family after so long. This eventually, helped him let go of his trauma and turned him into the lovely soul he was always meant to be. But as fate would have it, these same people, wanted for Kyle to pursue his dreams because they saw the potential for greatness in him and the wonderous things he could go on to do, even if Kyle himself was oblivious to it. So, in an effort to make his dreams come true, they ended up gifting him a brand new chance, one that Kyle himself would only go on to realize after his untimely death in a fatal car accident. Now awake in the new world, still orphaned but with a brighter perspective on life, Kyle, armed with a System, another gift from his loved ones in the previous world, decides to take the chance to pursue his dreams of being a star, one that he was unable to pursue in his previous life due to his lack of talent. This is the story of a man who will go on to become the most versatile and renowned superstar all over the world... and it starts, just as he takes his first step into the cutthroat world of fame and fortune by registering for the popular singing reality TV competition, 'Rising Voices'. Known to be a fiercely competitive TV show, Kyle will meet with top contestants from around the world, go up against them, level up and become better, and ultimately, battle with them for the number one spot in the show as a dark horse! --- |AUTHOR NOTE| Just wanted to make it clear, that the singing competition which will be the first arc of the novel, will end around the late twenty-ish or early thirty-ish chapters. After that, you can expect so much more from the story so look forward to it! Also, although the setting is in a parallel world, all the songs, scripts and movies (although I will draw inspiration here and there), will be originals penned by yours truly (-‿◦).
