Diklaim oleh Saudara yang Salah

Aurora Crestwood telah jatuh cinta pada sahabatnya Liam selama sepuluh tahun. Sepuluh tahun menjadi tempat bersandar, menerima telepon larut malam, dan memberikan dukungan emosional setiap kali dia putus cinta. Sepuluh tahun menyaksikannya mengejar wanita beracun yang sama yang terus mematahkan hatinya. Ketika Selena Beaumont mengumumkan pertunangannya dengan orang lain, Aurora berpikir dia akhirnya bebas. Tapi Liam punya rencana lain. Dia ingin menggagalkan pernikahan itu, melakukan usaha terakhir yang putus asa untuk mendapatkan wanita yang tidak pernah benar-benar menginginkannya. Dan dia ingin Aurora membantunya melakukannya. Melawan penilaian baiknya, dia setuju. Yang tidak dia duga adalah bertemu dengan Kian Vance. Saudara Liam yang terasing itu adalah segala hal yang bukan Liam—berbahaya, langsung, dan sama sekali tidak tertarik bermain-main. Dia juga teman pengantin pria, yang menjadikannya ancaman terbesar bagi rencana sabotase mereka. Tapi ketika Kian memandang Aurora, dia tidak melihat sahabat setia Liam. Dia melihat seorang wanita yang telah menyembunyikan jati dirinya terlalu lama. "Aku akan mencurinya darimu," kata Kian kepada saudaranya dengan kepastian yang dingin. Ketika Kian mengusulkan taruhan—jika pernikahan itu gagal, Aurora menjadi miliknya—dia seharusnya pergi. Dia seharusnya fokus membantu Liam mendapatkan wanita yang dia obsesikan. Dia seharusnya tetap menjadi gadis baik seperti yang selalu dia lakukan. Sebaliknya, dia berjabat tangan dengan iblis itu sendiri. Sekarang Aurora terjebak di antara dua bersaudara, pernikahan yang mungkin tidak terjadi, dan pria berbahaya yang melihat menembus dinding yang telah dia bangun dengan hati-hati. Kian berjanji untuk menunjukkan padanya apa artinya benar-benar diinginkan, tapi ketertarikannya datang dengan harga. Saat akhir pekan pernikahan bergerak menuju kekacauan, Aurora harus memutuskan: akankah dia terus bermain aman, atau akhirnya menerima api yang telah dia sembunyikan?

Reivindicada Pelo Irmão Errado

Aurora Crestwood está apaixonada por seu melhor amigo Liam há dez anos. Dez anos sendo o ombro para ele chorar, sua ligação de madrugada, seu apoio emocional após cada término. Dez anos observando-o perseguir a mesma mulher tóxica que continua partindo seu coração. Quando Selena Beaumont anuncia seu noivado com outra pessoa, Aurora pensa que finalmente está livre. Mas Liam tem outros planos. Ele quer invadir o casamento, fazer uma última jogada desesperada pela mulher que nunca realmente o quis. E ele quer que Aurora o ajude a fazer isso. Contra seu bom senso, ela concorda. O que ela não espera é conhecer Kian Vance. O irmão afastado de Liam é tudo o que Liam não é — perigoso, direto e completamente desinteressado em jogar jogos. Ele também é amigo do noivo, o que o torna a maior ameaça ao plano de sabotagem. Mas quando Kian olha para Aurora, ele não vê a amiga confiável de Liam. Ele vê uma mulher que tem escondido seu verdadeiro eu por tempo demais. "Vou roubá-la de você", Kian diz ao irmão com fria certeza. Quando Kian propõe uma aposta — se o casamento desmoronar, Aurora pertencerá a ele — ela deveria ir embora. Ela deveria se concentrar em ajudar Liam a conquistar a mulher por quem ele é obcecado. Ela deveria continuar sendo a boa menina que sempre foi. Em vez disso, ela aperta a mão do próprio diabo. Agora Aurora está presa entre dois irmãos, um casamento que pode não acontecer e um homem perigoso que enxerga através de suas paredes cuidadosamente construídas. Kian promete mostrar a ela o que significa ser verdadeiramente desejada, mas seu interesse vem com um preço. Enquanto o fim de semana do casamento espirala em direção ao caos, Aurora deve decidir: continuará jogando pelo seguro ou finalmente abraçará o fogo que tem escondido?

A Certain Undefined Gaia

Gaia City stands as the pinnacle of human advancement—a sprawling, walled metropolis where science has given birth to the extraordinary. Within its boundaries live Gaias, individuals born with Arthem circuits, synthetic pathways infused with Psi Waves and the mysterious energy known as Metra. Ranked from Eta to Alpha, Gaias are classified, studied, and controlled under a rigid system designed to maintain order and suppress the unknown. But science can only explain so much. Beyond the city's borders dwell the Mergus, wielders of pure Metra through forbidden Ancient Scripts and sacred texts long dismissed as myth by Gaia City's researchers. Unlike Gaias, Mergus tap into forces unquantifiable, echoing lost wisdom and primal power. Contact between the two worlds is outlawed—for good reason. Exposure to raw Metra could cripple or kill a Gaia, disrupting their Arthem at the core. Ryouma Winslow, an Eta-class Gaia dismissed as a nobody, had no intention of getting involved with either side. But everything changes when he crosses paths with Archive (Shiro), a strange girl with fractured memories and a presence that doesn’t belong in Gaia City. Helping her seemed simple—until restoring her mind reveals a truth that shatters the world he thought he knew. Now entangled with rogue Mergus factions, hunted by unseen forces, and navigating fragile alliances with powerful Level Alpha Gaias like the electrifying Mei Tokisaki, Ryouma finds himself drawn into a multilayered conflict that transcends science, challenges belief, and threatens the foundations of Gaia City itself. Because in a world split between science and sorcery, the greatest danger is a boy who doesn’t fit into either side. Author's Note to Readers: This story draws clear inspiration from the Toaru series (A Certain Magical Index / Scientific Railgun), and longtime fans will notice structural and tonal similarities in its arcs, setting, and faction dynamics. While some adaptations and elements may feel familiar, please know that the world, characters, power systems, and underlying themes in A Certain Undefined Gaia are entirely original and unique to this work. Think of it in the same way that fans appreciate both Mushoku Tensei and TBATE—similarities exist, but each story carries its own voice, meaning, and direction.
