Support me with a gift if you can.

Three days. That’s how close I was to marrying Alistair, the man I’d loved for six years, the man whose life I’d literally saved with my own rare blood. I was just admiring the final pearl on my wedding dress, a gown I’d poured my soul into, when he called. The wedding? Off. He was marrying my stepsister, Ivy. Her dying wish, he said. Six months to live, maybe less. The kicker? He’d already taken my wedding dress from my studio for her. Just like that, six years, countless transfusions, our shared dreams – all tossed aside for the girl who’d made my life a living hell since childhood. He even offered me “compensation,” as if my future had a price tag. But if Alistair and Ivy thought I’d just crumble, they seriously underestimated me. They wanted my fiancé? Fine. But it would cost them. First, our multi-million-dollar fashion company, Evening Gala – built on my designs, my vision. He signed it over. Then, a cool million for the stolen dress. He paid. Another million for the wedding jewelry they dared to ask me to hand over for Ivy. Cha-ching. You’d think they’d learn. But no. Their next proposal was the most insulting yet: Alistair actually suggested that I should just wait. That after Ivy’s ‘inevitable’ passing in a few months, he and I could just pick up where we left off, have an even better wedding. Seriously? Enough was enough. If Ivy wanted to play bride with my life, she was going to get a taste of what happens when you push someone too far. Let's just say her hospital room celebration involved a lot more smoke, water, and screaming than she bargained for, all thanks to a little wedding gift from yours truly. Now they know I’m not the same Hazel they could walk all over. I’ve got my company, a pile of their cash, and a whole lot of scores to settle. They think this is over? This game of revenge is just getting started. And believe me, I play to win.

One chapter a day, if I miss a day I'll do two the next day. Might go back to two times a day later on, will update in author notes if so. I don't think I can give a good synopsis for the book as an overall, my best attempt will be: The story of a young man going through the torture of knowledge and pulling through with the help of those he loves. A righteous person who's goal is freedom while protecting those he loves. Vol 1: A story heavily influenced by other works like Reverend Insanity and Shadow Slave and has a few unique power systems that are quite well explained. Characters in this volume are my weak point (and overall writing really). Vol 2: Starts after a timeskip, there's a large event which allows the story to progress into a Xianxia (though don't think everything previous is left in Vol 1, it all comes together, nothing is left behind fully) Vol 3: This is the beginning of an 'academy' style arc but also its where I really start to flesh out the Xianxia cultivation system as I did the other systems; it all ties together though so don't think I abandon other parts of the world and power system. Here my writing improves markedly and characters become a strong suite.

The circle held its breath as Damon’s challenge hung in the air, heavy with tension. His voice was light, but his words dripped with provocation. “Xavier, would you rather have the undivided attention of a mysterious person for the rest of the night… or get your dream car?” Xavier’s smirk sharpened, his eyes gleaming with something far more dangerous than amusement. “I choose the first,” he said, his gaze locking onto Kamsi. Her heart stuttered, her pulse quickening under the weight of his stare. Damon’s grin widened. “Then seduce someone here. Fifteen seconds. No touch. No explicit words. Just your charm.” The air grew thick, crackling with anticipation. The room leaned in as Xavier rose slowly, like a predator stalking its prey. His eyes never wavered from Kamsi, who could feel her resolve slipping under his relentless focus. She told herself it was just a game. But the way he moved, the way his presence engulfed her, made her wonder: What happens when a game stops being a game? When Kamsi Chibuike arrived in Washington, D.C., she craved a fresh start—a place where she could blend into the background and escape her past. But blending in was impossible once she crossed paths with Xavier Alastair, the untouchable bully who ruled Washington DC International School with a smirk that promised trouble. Their first encounter left her humiliated, furious… and unforgettable in his eyes. Xavier thrives on power, his sharp tongue and devilish charm keeping everyone at arm’s length. Yet, Kamsi’s defiance sparks something in him—something he can’t ignore. She becomes his favorite target, their clashes more intense with each encounter. But the more they push each other, the more Kamsi senses that beneath Xavier’s cruelty lies something broken, something real. What starts as a battle of wills turns into a dangerous game of attraction, where every insult masks a deeper truth and every glance threatens to ignite something uncontrollable. As Kamsi is drawn into Xavier’s chaotic world, she realizes that he isn’t just the school’s bully—he’s a storm threatening to tear through everything she thought she knew. The Bully’s Redemption is a gripping, tension-filled story of fierce enemies, forbidden desires, and the thin line between hate and passion. In a world where games can become deadly, and redemption seems impossible, Kamsi and Xavier must decide: Will they destroy each other, or will they find salvation in the chaos?

Ambushed during his final ascension, he was struck down by his rival, Original Sin. But instead of dying, he tore his soul free and vanished through a mysterious crack.

What remains is a burning drive to reclaim everything he lost... and to rise even higher than before, his lust for immorality has only grown stronger. The heavens may have desired his demise, but Underheaven is not finished yet. Not by a long shot. ******** What to Expect: + Weak to Strongest. + An MC who's determined to reach his goals  + Evolving Skills + There is Romance, but it's not harem. What Not to Expect: – No harem. – No constant flirting or female characters thrown in just for the MC to collect. – No overpowered-from-the-start protagonist who wins without effort. ******* Hello! Author here. Just wanted to let you all know that I don’t post chapters on Saturdays and Sundays for two main reasons: One, I’m Christian, and I believe in resting on the 7th day. Two, I use the weekend to review the chapters I’ve written, checking for grammar mistakes, spelling errors, and any accidental plot holes. If everything looks good and there aren’t too many corrections, I might release a bonus chapter.

Elara, the notorious villainess of the empire, met her end not with a bang, but a whimper—a poisoned chalice, a fading gasp, and then… a blinding flash. Instead of the afterlife, she woke to a condescending chime and a holographic screen hovering in her face, proclaiming her the unwilling recipient of a 'Redemption System.' Her mission? To atone for her past sins and become a paragon of virtue. Easy, right? Except the System's a buggy, sarcastic, sentient mess, prone to existential crises and doling out quests that make less sense than a politician's promise. It's less about becoming 'good' and more about surviving a world that still wants her head on a pike, all while navigating a 'fated mate' bond with the very hero she was supposed to destroy. Lord Kaelen, the Golden Paladin, isn't the shining beacon of justice everyone believes him to be. He's got his own dark secrets, a sinister System whispering in his ear, and a shared, cursed destiny with Elara that neither of them asked for. Their connection isn't some starry-eyed romance; it's a tangled knot of animosity, reluctant alliances, and a desperate fight against two manipulative Systems that seem determined to either make them fall in love or tear reality apart. Can a villainess truly find redemption when her guide is a glitch, her 'soulmate' is her sworn enemy, and fate itself is a twisted joke? Or will she just break the System, and maybe the world, trying?

Lin all tired and weak, from the torture she had gone through for the past days, now tied to a pole right at the edge of the cliff, looked up to her killer who was standing some meters away, and asked faintly "Why do I have to be put through all this?" "Am just carrying out an assignment." the killer responded, with no sign of sympathy whatsoever. Lin stared at her killer, obviously the masked figure wasn't going to show her any form of mercy. Already tired of life and had given up, she asked her killer one last time. "You really think, my dad is going to let y'all go after am dead?". The killer gave an evil grin. "Seems you have so much confidence in your dad..." He said clicking his teeth, and after exhaling. "Your dad wants you dead sweetheart." He said bluntly, dropping the bombshell, leaving Lin in utter shock and confusion. "That can't be true." She whispered although she could hear the doubt in her own voice, as the tears flowed from her already weary eyes down to her cheeks. She really didn't want to believe this but something was starting to make sense to her..She had gone through a lot already "Just end this please." She said exhaling deeply, as she closed her eyes. She could hear the echo of the gunshot as she waited patiently the bullet to pierce for through her... Yet nothing came through, she couldn't feel any form of pain or sting... "Isn't it meant to hurt a little?.. Or is she dead already.." She thought, as she slowly opened her eyes... What she saw was overwhelming... Her killer was on the floor instead... She scanned around, and that's when she saw a young man coming towards her... As the person came closer, she started to notice, that the person was also having feminine characteristics.... Wait that was a lady, looking really masculine.... Clad in all black, high boots, and a neat cut... She was lost in the eyes of this stranger and hadn't noticed that the lady had started to untie her. "What's going on?" A very confused Lin whispered, "Just follow me." The lady replied as she loosened the last knots that held Lin to the pole. Already freed Lin tried to take a step but stumbled. The lady turned and gave a smirk. "You were quite strong at first." And before Lin could fathom what she said, she swept her off her feet. And whispered, "Am not letting you go this time."

She claims to hate it but finds his obsessive love with her to be comforting. She knows that even though she doesn't deserve anything, not even to die, for that would be considered mercy, he is the only acception, for he doesn't deserve anything either.
