The Shadow of Great Britain

“Next, we have the most noble recipient of the Order of the Garter, the Grand Cross of Saint Michael and Saint George, the Grand Cross of the Bath, the Victoria Cross and the lower grades of Knighthood, the leader of the anti-colonial movement, the bell-ringer of the East India Company, the hero of the Crimean War, a Fellow of the Royal Society, a lifelong dear friend of literary giants such as Dickens and Great Dumas, a steadfast supporter of scientific luminaries like Faraday and Darwin, having served as assistant under-secretary, deputy under-secretary, and permanent under-secretary in departments of the Home Office and the Navy Department of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, the inaugural Cabinet Secretary and head of the civil service, the first graduate and most distinguished alumnus of our school. Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.” Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?” The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero. Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately. The applause grew even more fervent... (The protagonist, possessed by a devil, travels through 19th-century Britain in a world without magic)

My Partner in Crime

Rajani sighed deeply as her beautiful eyes became glassy like diamonds. "Yeah, but listen. I get why Beauty fell in love with the Beast, but it doesn’t change who Helel is. I wish there was a magical rose or kiss that could turn him into a charming, loving prince but there isn't. All Helel Faye will ever be is a beast. A cold-hearted, ruthless beast that has no empathy or regard for any living thing! All he cares about is himself-" "Rajani," a soft, deep, feminine voice said as a caring hand caressed Rajani's quivering shoulder. "It's okay. If Helel wants to be a ruthless animal, just let him be. He's not important. Everyday is something new about him, and by saying all this shit about him - it makes you look obsessed... and crazy." Rajani stood up from her chair and started yelling at her friend like a mad woman. She was furious at her - after all this time of venting her struggles and frustration to her, she decides to call her crazy and obsessed? Rajani was tired of people calling her crazy, mentally-ill, unhinged, and clinically-insane. She believed that she wasn't crazy at all, it was just that no one understood her. No one understood that her every action was all because of Helel Faye. Rajani regretted the day she decided to break her perfect, loving ex-boyfriend's trust and submit to Helel Faye. She dreaded the fact that she gave her boyfriend all sorts of mental disorders and illnesses like depression and anxiety. Now Rajani hated herself even more than her ex did. She was only trying to get the best for everyone she loved but she just ended up doing the polar opposite.

The Great Titans

Alternative Title: Titans In a world where gods once roamed freely, their power is now fractured, scattered across humanity in the form of "Titan Fragments"—artifacts that grant extraordinary abilities to their wielders. These fragments, said to be remnants of the gods themselves, bestow unimaginable strength, speed, and intelligence, but at a cost: they draw their bearers into an eternal struggle for dominance. Eren Kael, a young scavenger from the forgotten city of Ashenvale, stumbles upon a mysterious fragment buried in the ruins of an ancient battlefield. Unlike others, his fragment doesn't seem to amplify his strength or speed—it grants him visions of the gods’ downfall and whispers of a secret that could change the balance of the world. As Eren is thrust into the chaotic battles of the Titans, he must navigate alliances and rivalries with other bearers, each with their own ambitions and dark pasts. Among them are Lysara, a rogue strategist seeking vengeance for her family; Kaelen, a knight determined to restore honor to his kingdom; and Darius, a warlord who believes he is the reincarnation of a fallen god. But as the fragments call for blood and power, Eren begins to unravel a chilling truth: the fragments are not just relics of the gods—they are the gods, imprisoned within shards of their former glory, desperate to reclaim their dominion. Caught between the Titans' unending war and the gods’ looming resurrection, Eren must decide: Will he use his fragment to end the cycle of violence, or will he succumb to its intoxicating power and become the very thing he fears? Titans is a gripping tale of power, ambition, and the eternal question: What does it mean to be a god in a world of mortals?
