Jackson was a normal high schooler until one day on his way to school he was caught in the crossfire of a gunfight and died due to his injuries in the hospital. When he opened his eyes he found himself in a grand library that went on further than he could tell. After some time wandering around he came across a man who introduced himself as the primordial spirit of time, stories and knowledge, Brakos. Brakos explained that the multiverse was real, and he loved to watch people create grand things with their imaginations, write their own stories, and go on grand adventures. When he watched Jackson, he saw the potential he possessed. He was ecstatic but was upset when Jackson was shot and made arrangements for his soul to come to him when Jackson died. Jackson, still processing what Brakos is saying asks “What is going to happen to me now?” Brakos replies “Well that is up to you. I am giving you the chance to essentially become an Iseki character in any world of your choosing.” Jackson looked shocked hearing about this and took a minute to process everything again with Brakos patiently smiling at him. “Ok, but I have a few questions first.” Jackson suddenly said Brakos replied with a smile. “Sure, I will answer them to the best of my ability.” for a while, Jackson asked question after question with Brakos answering them. After a few hours of this, Jackson decided to think about what he wanted for this and after some time said something that Brakos had never expected. “Brakos I want to be reincarnated in a world with magic. In that world, I want to become the primogenitor (Primogenitors are creators/first of a race. Like Adam and Eve are the first humans in the bible) of a race I can call my own. One I can create and give power to. To be the leader of a people I can call my own and one I can work to defend and help grow.” Brakos stood there wide-eyed and speechless, trying to make sure that he heard that right. Then He looked at Jackson and smiled thinking ‘This kid is smart, I may have finally found someone who can surpass even my expectations.’ He laughed “Hahaha. Ok if that is what you wish I know just the world to send you to but I must warn you. Just becoming a Primogenitor is a dangerous thing there and the race you create will depend on how you go about it and you may not like what you create. Not to mention that this world also has other primogenitors and they may try to kill you once they realize what you are and lay claim to what you have created.” Jackson smiled and said ”That’s fine I already have a plan on how I will create the race and how to protect myself. I just need your help in fine-tuning it as I don't know how it would work or even if it's possible.” Jackson proceeds to explain his plan and Brakos can't help but be amazed at the creativity of this human child. “Ok, I understand but I do have one question. What shall be the name for this race that you create?’ Jackson smiled and spoke, “This race shall be known as the Draconians." _____________ TLDR Jackson is a person that reincarnates into another world as a primogenitor (they are creators/first of a race like Adam and Eve are the first humans in the bible) and brings forth a new race called the Draconians. A special type of dragon. To create this race he gains a special book that can alter reality and allow but to change parts of his race. To most, it will look like he is taking notes about an existing race but in reality, he is changing the race itself. Follow Jack as he learns about the world he lives in now as he goes to a magic school, gains the powers of spirits and even becomes the creator of a brand new race that can fight against the gods themselves. _____________ Not a harem or romance novel. Will be a BL eventually but will not be the focus of the story. Just want to build up the world right now.

After living in hellish prison for 16 years, you're finally rescued. But what do you do when you soon realize that there is now a thread, a connection to the warden you've escaped from? BLURB: He could clearly see the way the water droplets ran down her back. The brown curls, almost black due to being wet, stuck to it, gave such an alluring contrast to her skin that seemed to glow in the moonlight. She turned, causing her ample breast to come into view. A single droplet hung precariously from a pebbled nipple. Was his eyesight always this sharp? It appeared like a pearl, begging to be licked away. He groaned as he could almost taste the cool freshness on his tongue before it was replaced with the heat of her flushed skin. Unzipping his jeans caused his member spring forth, drenched in the constant precum that flowed. Just the thought of sucking on her breast made him groan in frustrated desperation. He buried his face between the fleshly orbs. Biting and licking, he was pleased to see his marks on her skin. A fierce desire to possess came over him and even his wolf growled at the feeling. How is it that she smells even better that the soap she just used? Other Omegas used the same kind, yet their smell would cause his stomach to feel upset. Inhaling again, he pinning her against a tree. The same tree he was hiding behind before. Lifting her up, he devoured her lips while wrapping her long legs around his waist. Slightly bending his knees, he entered her in one deep thrust. She was hot and tight. So tight that if it wasn't for her juices, he wouldn't be able to move. Gripping himself tighter, his imagination became wild. Just thinking about her breathy moans or her screams of pleasure caused a shudder to pass through him as he came into the tissue he had thoughtfully grabbed. Why, why not just take what he so obviously wants? What's stopping him? If it were anyone else, he would have slacked his lust, had some fun, and moved on. The fact that this question ran through his mind without an answer was the reason for his pain.

He swiveled his head—rapidly—and our noses brushed. I laughed tiredly. “What is with that reaction, friend?” His face tightened. But he was not upset. He wore the countenance of a delighted man who feigned confusion because it was comfortable not to recognize what some actions meant. “You are always touching me. Every hour, a hand of yours reaches for me. Why?” he asked. I felt bashful, although confessions came naturally to me. “You must understand by now.” “I am trying to,” he answered sincerely, and he spread his fingers over his chest. “Because here, I feel something I am not used to. Whenever you touch me.” I smiled softly. “You feel your heart.” “I feel more than that.” “Does it frighten you?” He pondered over it while holding my gaze. “I don’t want it to.” I stole his other hand and held it against my chest to let him feel the music of my heart. “Do you feel the rhythm?” His eyes fell to where he held me. “I do not need to feel it,” he murmured. “I hear every time it changes.” I adored him with an enthusiastic smile. “Your ears are extraordinary, and you notice when affection drums in my chest. For you, Aestos. Because you are becoming someone special to me.” ------------ A story about love, destiny, (some) mythological creatures, music, magic, family, and tragedy. Takes on minor themes of historical Greek mythology & culture. [ This story centers affectionate friendships between men. BL tag for bromance. ]

Qiao Mu moved in with the rich and powerful Qiao family as a bastard when she was five. She lived on tiptoes, fearful of upsetting her stepmother and stepsister. Living in the mansion next door was a big brother who spoiled her like a princess, buying her all the cakes and candies in the world. However, he suddenly disappeared one day. Ten years later, he was back. Qiao Mu first encountered him again on her eighteenth birthday party, even though she did not recognize him, and she ended up waking up in his bed! A series of event unfolded after that, and Qiao Mu was certain that this man was no longer the affectionate big brother who doted on her. But was it really so? What was actually on his mind?

After spending 15 years of her life trapped in her family’s manor due to poor health, Liu Sihua finally sees a chance to escape when a crack forms in the manor walls. Naive and eager to explore the world, she slips out, only to be captured by human hunters and sold at auction. As a rare Qi gatherer, Sihua is forced into slavery, enduring years of captivity while desperately fighting for her freedom. Her relentless attempts to escape lead to a final confrontation on a cliff’s edge, where, cornered and without options, she is slain in the dead of night. With blood spilling from her mouth, Sihua smiles. At least now, she has found peace. But fate has other plans. Sinhua is reincarnated back to her 15-year-old self, just before she ever left the manor. This time, however, she possesses a powerful Qi Gathering System, allowing her to cultivate unimaginable energy. Determined to rewrite her fate, Sihua sets out to forge a new path. Yet peace remains elusive when the Ice Prince, the third prince of the Warring Continent, sets his sights on her. *** "Your Highness... the young madam used up all the money in the treasury!" "I'm wealthy beyond measure. Let her spend as much as she pleases." "Your Highness... the young madam stripped the eunuchs of their clothes and chased them out of the palace!" "If they offended her, they deserve the punishment." "Your Highness… someone upset the young madam again!" "Who dares?" "It’s the cook! He refused to make sweet treats for the young madam..." After a moment of thought, the prince declares, "Let him and every cook in the continent prepare every treat imaginable until her anger is soothed. Let’s see who dares provoke her next." P.S. Sihua’s hidden talents? You'll have to read on to find out.
