After Alice

When the pure lotus provoked her, she slapped her instantly, "It's just a pair of worn-out shoes. If you want them so desperately, take them and wear them." President Jones intruded with a cheeky face, "Wife, even if they're worn-out shoes, I'd only let you wear them." "Scram!" ... 【One man, one woman】Four years ago, she left in fury with the bun in her oven. Four years later— "Uncle, I noticed that your face has a gloomy look, it looks like you have excessive liver heat. It's obvious you lack a wife. Do you want to get to know my mommy?" The president who remained aloof from women looking at his mini-me, his eyes deepened. He immediately packed up the mother and child, and brought them back home, pampered them to the point of annoying everyone. Someone asked, "President Jones, isn't this a bit too unreasonable?" The president smirked coldly, "You expect me to be reasonable when pleasing my wife?" This is a story about an overbearing President Jones, who's fiercely dominant, and unreasonable in pampering his wife.

November 17th. A day that should have been ordinary became the day the world fell apart. The Collapse—a disaster unlike any other—destroyed over 80% of the population in a single stroke. Entire cities were reduced to ruins, the rules of nature were rewritten, and strange, otherworldly forces began to seep into the cracks of reality. Those who survived were left to navigate a world where power comes at a price, and despair looms around every corner. Silas Grayson was a man who always preferred the background, someone who never sought the limelight. But when the Collapse shattered the world, it shattered Silas’s quiet existence, too. Now, in a reality that demands action, he must navigate a landscape where ruins grant strange Authorities, rulers thrive on corruption, and whispers of beings far beyond human understanding begin to surface. As he ventures deeper into this harsh new world, Silas clings to hope—a fragile, flickering light in the darkness. But when despair threatens to crush even that, he must grapple with the question: How does a man hold on to hope in a world that seems designed to take it away? The Collapse didn’t just destroy the world—it created a new one. And surviving it will demand more than Silas ever thought he could give.

The deeper they dive into the mystery, the clearer it becomes that they are being followed, hunted by forces they do not yet understand. With danger closing in and secrets unraveling, Isla and Kai must uncover the truth before the past catches up with them. But as memories resurface and identities blur, one question remains—who is Isla really, and why does Thane refuse to let her go?

After the vision something is there.We have to remain prepared for that but with the aid whatatever inside our vision .

"It’s official. Death wants an heir." The announcement sent shockwaves through all realms. Who was worthy to inherit the throne of the Almighty? Debates raged as curiosity sparked fierce discussions. Mikhael, an ordinary human, had no stake in this—until he received an unexpected visitor. “Congratulations. You are Death’s son.” Hel’s words turned his world upside down. “What the hell is that supposed to mean?” “It means you get to work for me—for free. The perks? Rent-free living, one rest day a year, and a guaranteed meal every day. Sounds nice, right?” Hel clapped her hands excitedly, as if she were offering the deal of a lifetime. Mikhael was stunned. This was blatant slavery disguised as destiny. “No thanks. I like my life as it is.” “Too bad.” Hel gave a dramatic pause. “Either you work for me, or death follows you—forever.” Trapped between two of the worst choices in history, Mikhael had no idea what power awaited him. One path led to servitude, the other to something far worse. But could he defy Hel’s terms and come out on top, or would he end up as nothing more than her pawn?

In a post-apocalyptic world, you'll find four main types of people. Those who fight with all their might "the hunters." The ones who leech and exploit others "the pests." The predators, who see everyone as prey. And lastly, we have "the survivors," the resilient ones who never give up. Everyone often fits into one category, but it's hard to determine which one Maya falls into. She's not exactly a fighter, considering leaving her room was a chore even before the apocalypse. A predator? No way—she's always been a pushover. You might think she's a survivor, but that's laughable. She'd rather die from starvation than resort to scavenging. So, how should we categorize her? leeche? Nope. Perhaps a new category is needed: "The Lost"—those struggling to find their place in a shattered world."

"You are Alice!" She doesn't know what her name is, but she's sure that it is not what they claim. Waking up in the middle of an unpleasant place, and then meeting an unpleasant child then finally calls her to a name she's familiar with but has a different feeling over it, she claims, "I'm not Alice!"

No ambitious man will keep his sanity when he knows the exact moment of his death without achieving anything he ever hoped to achieve. But what if that same man was revived with powers beyond human comprehension? ... Will he sacrifice everything to find the truth or try his best to live a normal life?..

Anna Maria was perfect. Gabrielle Nandia was not. Anna Maria had the sweetest of smiles, with a presence that purified upon arrival. Gabrielle did not. She was always alone and gloomy, and the only thing that followed her were bad rumors. That day, Anna Maria was in a bad mood and wanted to eat alone. She glanced out of the window from the cafeteria. Outside, a figure sat under the tree, eating. Every bite was framed with a resplendent expression, which shone so brightly it blinded her. There was no smile, but the expression shown was as ephemeral as ice, melting before one could fully grasp the allure of its sweetness. Anna Maria blinked, scrubbing her eyes and readjusting her glasses to make sure of what she had seen, but the occupant had left before she could tell who it was. She searched for a week and finally found her—Gabrielle Nandia. She grasped the palm of the startled girl with a bewitching smile. "Gabrielle, will you please be my muse?"

I woke up in a dark dungeon, my body screaming in agony, reeking of death. The air was thick with decay, each breath clawing at my throat. My mind was blank, a hollow void. "Who am I?" I whispered, but no answer came. Stumbling into the world beyond, I was greeted by thick fog and cold silence. The ground was littered with gutted bodies and shattered swords—fragments of lives lost to battles I couldn’t begin to understand. The monsters I’d killed to get here felt like a prelude to something worse. I couldn’t stop wondering about the stories behind the broken swords, the fallen warriors. Maybe my own story lay hidden among them. They say curiosity killed the cat. I can only hope my curiosity ends up killing me too.

In a world where realms collide and supernatural beings vie for dominance, Alice, a bold and stubborn teenager, discovers she is far more than she ever imagined. The daughter of Kael, the dark ruler of the Land of the Immortals, and a powerful mermaid queen, Alice’s existence is intertwined with ancient prophecies, dangerous secrets, and an impending war that could reshape all realms. Alice’s journey begins in a prestigious school for the supernatural, where she forms unlikely alliances with Micheal, a dragon-vampire hybrid; Aliyah, her mermaid cousin and protector; and Demian, a brooding werewolf prince with a hidden connection to her. As Alice uncovers the truth about her origins and the enemies plotting against her, she becomes a beacon of hope for the oppressed and a target for those seeking to control her destiny. When Kael unexpectedly emerges from the Gate of Bael, Alice must reconcile with her enigmatic father, who harbors regrets and truths that shake the foundations of her beliefs. Together, they uncover shocking secrets, including the manipulation of Lucifer, the betrayal of trusted allies, and the mystery surrounding Alice’s frozen mother, who holds the key to an ancient power. As Alice learns to wield her extraordinary abilities—guided by Saraphina, the last mermaid elder—she is thrust into a web of conspiracies led by Lyanna, a power-hungry manipulator determined to eliminate her. Meanwhile, Alice’s bond with Demian deepens as they face shared dangers, igniting tension between their families and realms. In a world where trust is fragile and power is a dangerous weapon, Alice must navigate betrayal, love, and self-discovery. With Kael, Micheal, Aliyah, and Demian by her side, she embarks on a perilous quest to unite the realms, confront her enemies, and fulfill her destiny as the one destined to bring balance—or destruction—to all. But as the threads of fate tighten, Alice faces the ultimate question: will she rise as the savior of the realms or succumb to the darkness within?

"Genevieve, don't you get it?" Jonathan's voice was laced with a hint of frustration, his words cutting through the air like a sharp blade. "I don't love you, and I never have," he continued, his tone devoid of emotion, leaving Genevieve's heart shattered into a million pieces. "Jonathan, wait... what do you mean?" Genevieve's voice trembled, her words barely above a whisper, as she struggled to comprehend the harsh reality. But Jonathan's expression remained resolute, his eyes cold and unyielding. "I love you, Genevieve, but I can't imagine a life with you," he said, his voice cracking with a mix of guilt and relief. "The wedding is off, I can't do this to myself," he declared, his words echoing through the room like a death sentence. Genevieve's world crumbled around her, her dreams shattered, her heart broken. "I'm sorry for telling you now," Jonathan said, his voice laced with regret, but it was too late, the damage was done. "Please stay," Genevieve begged, her voice cracking with desperation, but Jonathan was already gone, leaving her with a shattered heart.

Until Jayjay's soft voice pierced through the darkness, "Wake up, sleeping beauty." Genevieve's eyes fluttered open, her gaze locking onto her cousin's concerned face. "What are you doing in my room?" she asked, her voice husky from sleep, her mind still reeling from the vivid nightmare.
