Leaving behind the comforts of his luxurious home, Haruto ventures into the nearby village of Hanamura, where he discovers a group of passionate but disorganized players.

With his sharp mind, strategic thinking, and unwavering determination, he begins to transform the ragtag group into a cohesive team. But the road to success is far from smooth.

Screwing Up The Golden Child (BL)

Call it petty or perhaps foolish, if you will, but to Lauren, his small revenge became the last saving straw in his drowning life. Lauren became suicidal after finding out that his parents were both alive but had discarded him as a baby right after his birth just for being born different and yet raised his twin sister with so much love and affection. So as a coping mechanism, he made it his life mission to teach them a small lesson by denying his sister, Laura, the joy of being with the only man that she has ever loved as a little token of payment for this unfairness. For years, Lauren lay in wait as he worked as a bar host and planned his simple but well-elaborated revenge against his parents' "golden child." But finding out that he was pregnant with another man's baby not so long after the wedding was never part of his plans. So Lauren knew then that it was time to draw the curtains closed before his "husband" found out that he had been duped. He needs to RUN! So what happens when this said husband too has no intention of letting him get away with this scot-free and intends to find his "fake" wife and make sure that he pays for his deception? What happens then when he realises that the man that he has been searching for is none other than the very husband that he has been running away from? Will he go and claim him back, or will he let his sister be with him, rather? And what if, while Lauren thought that everything that was happening was as a result of his own game plan, he was rather just a pawn in someone else's chess? *** Note: This author would not give warnings for any scene in the book. So please make sure that you're in the right frame of mind before you start reading. Thank you.

Senseless [Golden Gemini]

We became what the eyes see us as. Not us. Not real. *** "Try this." Yuki lifted his gaze to see a fish ball skewered on a stick, held close to his mouth. The hand offering it belonged to none other than the striking stranger standing beside him. He wore a blue and white uniform, a black bag slung over one shoulder. Yuki’s eyes landed on the stranger’s face again. Even now, he still wasn’t used to seeing someone like him—a face that seemed completely out of place in their small, ordinary town. There was no doubt he was an outsider. "Yuki." Yuki was startled when the stranger moved the skewer even closer to his lips. He could smell the warm, spicy sauce, and without thinking, he quickly flicked his tongue over it. His brows furrowed in surprise—it was unexpectedly delicious. Instead of reprimanding the stranger, he found himself praising him. "Mm, this is good!" He opened his mouth to take a bite of the fish ball—only for it to vanish into thin air. "Huh?" Confused, he looked up, but the stranger was already busy selecting more street food. Yuki’s cheeks suddenly burned, and with clenched fists, he moved closer to him. "What’s your problem?" Even the elderly vendor glanced at them, observing how the stranger completely ignored Yuki. His face flushed with frustration, as if ready to pick a fight. The vendor quickly intervened. "Alright, alright, no fighting! Son, just choose what you want." He nudged Yuki toward the food stall. "No, thank you." Yuki muttered before walking away from the kiosk. The old vendor watched him leave, staring in silence until he disappeared from sight. "One more order of that, please. And make it to-go." The stranger finally spoke. "Ah, sure, son." When the vendor handed him the food, the young man left without another word. Hands in his pockets, he walked in the same direction Yuki had gone, the plastic bag of fish balls dangling from his fingers. The vendor sighed and sat down, shaking his head. "Kids these days." ©2025
