I Belong To The House Of Castello

Our story begins with Doctor Curio Avaline and his greatest invention, the Quantum Super Imposition Assimilator. It was, as a matter of fact, the door to space exploration for mankind and our main character, Dr. Avaline wishes to be ingrained into the history book with it. But an invention so advanced is the cause of much evil. The one who holds the Assimilator is the one who holds the future of humankind. In the midst of the exhibition of the Assimilator, an assassination was organised, aimed at the center point of this series of events, the inventor himself. He was able to prevent the tragedy it brought, in exchange for his own life. But Curio Avaline is no fool to this cunning game. He has prepared his escape route, to another version of Earth. And I welcome you to this story of how he travels the multiverse looking for knowledge he dares not to comprehend.

In a city where murder is a message and secrets are currency, journalist Dawn Williams is no stranger to the darkness lurking behind Duncaster’s polished facade. But when bodies start turning up marked with unholy symbols and blood-red flowers, she knows she’s chasing a story that could get her killed. Then she meets him. A whispered name in the underworld. A shadow that leaves no trace—except for the bodies in his wake. The Vida Killer. Dawn should expose him. He should silence her. Instead, they strike a dangerous deal: She keeps his identity a secret, and he helps her hunt the cult behind the killings. But the deeper they go, the more tangled she becomes in a web of betrayal, forbidden desire, and a man whose touch should terrify her—but only leaves her wanting more. And just when she thinks she can control the fire, Detective Ezra Ruthwell arrives in Duncaster—charming, relentless, and far too determined to unravel both the murders and the secrets Dawn is keeping. Now, she’s caught between two dangerous men: One who kills for a living. One who hunts killers. And her own heart—a traitor in its own right. Some truths are meant to stay buried. Some love stories are meant to end in blood.

… “One fifty.” I heard someone shout. “One sixty.” Another said immediately. “Two hundred.” “Five hundred thousand dollars.” “Five hundred thousand dollars, going once, going twice, sold.” Cesar announced and everybody clapped. “What was that?” Drego barked. “What?” I blinked, my smile slowly dissipating. “Why did you agree to stand up there? And looking like this for that matter.” I frowned. “Like what?” “Did you enjoy the fact that men were bidding on you like some prost—” My palms flew and landed on Drego’s face before I could understand what I was doing. “You don’t get to judge how I decide to look. Who the hell do you think you are to judge me? I did what I did for charity. You’re my boss, don’t cross any lines.” I turned around to leave. “Wait. Nichole I’m sorry.” He said more calmly. I looked at him again. “Because I told you that I was in love with you doesn’t make it okay for you to get involved in my personal life and decisions.” “It’s not like—” “Don’t worry. The day I quit was my first day getting over you. You don’t have to worry about that crazy talk. I’m over you. And I’ll leave your company the second you find my replacement and you won’t have to see me anymore.” “Nichole please listen—” “Drego, you’re up.” Reid came outside. His expression changed. It was no surprise. The tension between Drego and I was palpable. “Is everything okay?” Reid asked. “Yeah.” I replied. “We are done here.”

A gesture I knew was futile because he was strong, very strong. "Run if you like." His whisper sounded next to my left ear, and I wished to deny it, I wished to tell myself I don't feel it, but I do. I feel a certain tingle every time this demon is this close to me. "I will pursue you. Hide if you must, I shall find you, and die if you choose, I shall make death cough your soul back into your cold body." I knew it. He will never let me go.

Prologue: The House That Remembers The train never should have stopped. Not here. Not for me. Yet, the moment the wheels screech against the tracks, I know—this place has been waiting. For how long, I cannot say. Time does not move naturally in the mist. I step onto the platform, and the cold clings to my skin like something alive, something with fingers and breath and memory. The sign above me is broken, its letters long faded, but the graffiti scrawled beneath it is fresh. One word, written in frantic, uneven strokes: ECHOES. A gust of wind stirs the fog, and for a split second, I see them—figures in the mist. Watching. Listening. Remembering. I clutch the slip of paper in my hand, the only clue I have. Find the House That Remembers. I don’t remember writing it. But I know the house is already waiting for me. And it does not forget.

Two friends. One mysterious 'System'. A second chance at life. Adrian and Marcus never expected to die young. Yet, when they awaken in a cosmic void, a voice gives them a compensation deal: reincarnation in a brand-new world, with their memories and sense of being intact. Given a finite pool of Karmic Points, they must carefully choose their advantages, their starting position, and even the world itself where they will be reborn. Adrian—ever the strategist—opts for long-term gain, while Marcus, impulsive and bold, just craves excitement. Together, they make a fateful decision: they will be reborn as a minor noble brothers in the Azura Federation, a land of shifting allegiances, merchant-noble, and cutthroat politics. When the time comes to spend their last remaining Karmic Points, Marcus proposes a radical gamble: rather than buying minor advantages, they sacrifice everything for unrestricted access to the System’s hidden exchange mechanics. The deal is struck—but at a cost they don’t fully understand. Now, as they navigate a world of noble houses, military conflicts, and hidden agendas, Adrian and Marcus must use every advantage at their disposal to not only survive this life—but to try finding a way of securing their place in the next cycles of life in the far future. What happens if they fail? If their Karmic points reach zero when they die in this new life they are about to embark? The System refuses to say. With magic, danger, and unseen cosmic forces lurking in the shadows, the two must play the ultimate game of strategy. But as they rise, one other question always looms over them: Did they even have a chance to break the System… or did the System merely just trap them in an even deeper game?
