Created by a reclusive genius, these mythic machines have become part of daily life. But when a company employee vanishes, two elite prototypes—Elira and Fenrir—are sent to find him. What begins as a simple recovery spirals into a journey through ruined cities, rogue AIs, and buried truths. As shadows stir behind the code, the line between myth and machine begins to blur.

#WSA2025 Word went around that no one that had ever knocked on the esteemed Eleazar family’s doors seeking shelter were turned away. Fleeing the prince of Lustris no less, Arabella Sterling held out hope that those weren’t mere rumors as she crossed the border over to Umbraria, home to all creatures of the night. A land where noble blood like hers was a highly coveted delicacy. As such, she wasn’t turned away, but since the Eleazars ran no charity, Arabella was compelled to become the sole blood provider to the heir of the family in exchange for safety. Though never, in a million years, did she imagine that what had started as a simple trade off, could morph into a swirl of tangled passion when the cold and stoic vampire she served showed interest in the young woman beyond the crimson nectar coursing her veins.

“Use your words, Oliver. I want to hear that sweet voice of yours.” His voice was cold and dangerous as his grip on my jaw got tighter. My lips shook under his harsh stare. I could barely look at him through my tears. “I-I’m sorry, K-Keiran,” I stuttered. “You’re always sorry. A pathetic crybaby is all you’ll ever be.” He sneered, gripping my shoulders even harder. I couldn’t stop the embarrassing tear that rolled down my cheek. “You’re so pathetic. I’ll keep hurting you until there’s nothing left of you.” My eyes went wide when he moved closer. I didn’t know what he would do, so I shut my eyes tight. I stopped breathing when I felt his breath on my face. When I opened my eyes, he was gone. He used to be my crush and childhood best friend… But now he’s my nightmare. He hates me, and he’s promised to make my life hell. Because I made a huge mistake. Staying alive when I should have died. ----- **What happens when your first love becomes your worst enemy?** Oliver West never expected his quiet life to turn into a nightmare. The boy who once shared secrets and summer adventures with him has become someone he doesn’t recognize. Keiran Morrison - tall, dangerous, and devastatingly handsome - now uses that same intensity that once made Oliver’s heart flutter to terrorize him instead. Every day at Riverside High is a battle for survival. Every corner could hide a new humiliation. Every moment of peace is just the calm before Keiran’s next storm. But why does Keiran’s hatred burn so bright? What happened to turn childhood love into adult cruelty? And why, despite everything, does Oliver’s heart still race when Keiran gets close - even when he’s terrified? Some mistakes can’t be forgiven. Some wounds run too deep to heal. But sometimes the line between love and hate is thinner than you think.

Aside from a few of her students, 25-year-old otaku teacher Evelyn Adler found people to be rotten. Her parents' disappearance, leaving behind a massive debt, forced her into the clutches of ruthless gangsters. Believing her suffering was finally ending, she awoke to a mysterious system informing her she had been transmigrated into the worst otome game possible, 'My Protectors'. Moreover, she was reborn as a character who didn’t even exist in the original story—an insignificant extra in this new world! Then again, now going by her in-game name, Isadora, somehow ends up being the personal Knight of the feared demon queen's little sister, Veronica Hawthorn, the disabled psycho witch in the future?! What's more, that woman hates her! Whatever it was, since Isa had come to this world already, she was going to take full advantage of her existence!

What is a monster? Humans normally define monsters as fear inducing, bloodthirsty creatures bent on destruction. But to Noah? Monsters were the humans who despised him without justifications, who taught him to loathe himself just for being human. Life was hell, a hell that was surrounded by “monsters”. Until one day, the world changed. Humans were suddenly graced by a Divine voice, one that warned of their extinction, but also promised them power. They were bestowed with a system, a system to aid their fight for survival, to survive against monsters. And when humanity was given that chance to survive, Noah chose to walk a path of a tamer, to befriend the very monsters that were threatening the humans' extinction. As he tamed the monsters, learned from them, bonded with them, shedding the last remnants of what it was to be human. Noah began to wonder, is it wrong to be considered a monster? Feedback is definitely appreciated, good or bad, let's make the story good together. I would like to note that the main character isn’t completely ruthless, he's more chaotically neutral. There’s a lot of good stories out there with ruthless, bloodthirsty, cold hearted main characters so if that’s what your interest in then I’m sorry to disappoint you.

In a cosmos woven through the Aetherium Prime—the foundational plane where thought, will, and energy coalesce—existence is governed by ancient laws and the silent will of The One Above All. Yet, this delicate balance is threatened by a profound schism, born from a primordial act of defiance and a relentless pursuit of transcendence. At the heart of this unfolding saga are Lognos (L2) and Eli Ragual (R2), twin brothers of unprecedented potential. Born from the forbidden union of Miriam Soter, a celestial-blooded Saintess, and Dr. Azrael, a heretical scientist-mystic, their very existence is an act of rebellion against cosmic predestination. L2, the Cosmic Warrior and Ophiuchus Ascendant, embodies intellect and strategy, destined to master the systems of reality. R2, the Spiral Messiah, is a powerhouse of raw strength and transcendence, whose path involves "becoming the storm." Their bond is profound, yet fraught with L2's desperate drive to overcome R2's inherent physical fragility, a struggle that will ultimately lead to their destined fusion into LRD, a universal stabilizer. Their journey unfolds against a backdrop of cosmic warfare, driven by two opposing, yet equally dangerous, legacies: * Cain's Lineage: The progenitor of the Vampire Lords, Cain defied the Creator, his ambition to transcend his curse leading to the birth of his three distinct bloodlines: the Infernal (seeking demonic godhood), the Human (aiming for perfected immortality), and the Beastkin (forging ultimate war forms). Cain envisions the fusion of these lineages into a single, perfect being, asserting dominion over the mortal realms and beyond. * Babel's Legacy: Once the divine Abel, corrupted by Cain's dark arts, Necros Babel became the first Undying Necromancer. His ultimate goal is not vengeance, but a calculated act of cosmic restoration: to erase Kain. Babel believes Kain's continued existence has become a "detriment" to the natural order, and he seeks to unmake the very rules of existence through Eldritch Vampirism—a power that devours concepts and reality itself—to achieve this precise, minimal-damage erasure. As L2 and R2 cultivate their Inner Worlds, forging personal realities that threaten to surpass the Aetheric Plane itself, they ignite a "war between those who govern existence and those who dare to create it." Established deities, categorized by their elemental and conceptual affinities (from Ra and Zeus to Kali and Kael), grapple with the emergence of these new forms of divinity. The Nine Singularities—fundamental truths about Being, Choice, Death, and Godhood—serve as philosophical and existential trials that all ascending entities must confront. The fate of the cosmos hangs in the balance. Will L2 and R2 succumb to the temptations of Cain's raw power or Babel's nihilistic erasure? Or will they forge a new path, navigating the treacherous Wells of Resonance and confronting the ancient Apex Beasts, to achieve a Divine Unity that rebuilds existence rather than destroying it? Their choice will not only redefine their own destiny but reshape the very fabric of reality, determining whether the universe descends into eternal conflict or ascends to a new, transcendent order.

In the year 2091, Earth ran on smart cities, drone deliveries, endless exams, and mild existential dread. Everything was boringly stable—until one Tuesday evening, the sky glitched. > “Ding! Population: 10 Billion. Phase 2 Initiated. Begin Cosmic Protocol.” And reality broke. Portals opened. The laws of physics updated. Every human—student, soldier, or sandwich vendor—was forcibly enrolled into a universe-sized game of classes, quests, and utterly unfair cosmic mechanics. This is the story of Everett Miracle, an 18-year-old who just wanted to pass his college entrance exams… but instead pulled the legendary (and possibly bugged) class: > Cube of Becoming. (Yes. An actual cube. No refunds.) Now, stuck between worlds and saddled with a sarcastic system, a semi-sentient cube companion, and a growing list of completely insane responsibilities, Everett must survive bizarre creatures, broken powers, and increasingly unhinged allies. The fate of the multiverse may or may not depend on him. He would really prefer it didn’t. --- Patreon: [miracle_cube123] Updates: Weekly/Chaotic/Powered by Snacks

Dove Sterling, a twenty-two-year-old CEO of one of the country's biggest beauty companies, is also the devoted mother of an adorable three-year-old boy. Four years ago, under the influence of a drug slipped to her by a so-called "friend," she unknowingly spent the night with a complete stranger—someone she couldn’t even remember afterward.

But winning her heart—and dealing with a little boy fiercely protective of his mother—proves more difficult than he imagined. Dante’s biggest obstacle? His own son giving him constant headaches! ---
