Brother Trouble

I've been surrounded by monsters since the day I was born and I believed my father was the worse out of all of them. But I was wrong. I just hadn't met my husband yet. *** Claudia Santoro wanted only a few things from life and one of them was to become a renowned singer. But her father was a man who spent more time on his ambitions than he did his children.

Fake Love, Real Trouble Nathan Cole never cared about popularity. He preferred to stay low profile, sleep in class, and go unnoticed—except by his best friend, Thomas. But everything changes when Lilian Carter, the school’s star athlete and top student, suddenly approaches him with a crazy request: pretend to be her boyfriend. It all starts when Lilian breaks up with Derek Lancaster, her cheating ex-boyfriend. In a heated conversation, she boldly claims she can find someone far better than him. Now, she needs proof. By chance, she witnesses Nathan doing something that catches her attention—something that proves he’s not just an ordinary student. Reluctantly, Nathan agrees. His only condition? It’s just an act. But the longer they fake it, the harder it becomes to tell what’s real and what’s not. With Derek refusing to back down, a suspicious best friend, and unexpected situations pushing them closer, Nathan realizes he might have gotten himself into far more trouble than just a fake relationship.

Since the Great Fracture and the partial destruction of the Moon, Earth has become nothing more than a wasteland, devoured by corruption. An unknown gigantic sword, emerging from the infinitely distant reaches of the universe, pierced the Unnameable, impaling it upon the star of dreams. Now, humanity lives in a waking nightmare, struggling to survive in a world where Umbra and Lumen wage an endless battle. Cities are built around sacred sites, where Lumen, the only source of purification, is wielded to repel the creeping darkness. But Umbra, with its abominations born of the shadows, relentlessly threatens what remains of humanity. Gaël is stained by this darkness. Umbra flows within him, eating away at his body and mind, and each time he draws upon this forbidden power, he edges closer to madness. He knows his fate is sealed, that his chances of surviving what he is becoming are slim. But rather than cower in fear, he chooses another path. He wants to follow in the footsteps of the Brothers of the Sword. Where the chosen of Lumen purify, the Brothers cut and annihilate. Where the cities hide behind the light, they plunge into the darkness. Feared, revered, and shrouded in legend, these warriors are, for most, nothing more than children’s tales. Gaël knows his life will be short. So before he vanishes, he wants to uncover the truth behind these fables, and if possible, live a brief, glorious saga, cutting down a few abominations along the way.

The world, from the past until now, has been divided into three parts and none of them are good or evil when all three believe that they are “good” and their enemies are “evil”, so the only thing people can define for the world at this time is “ambiguity”. The Three Parties, the embodiment of order, the Executive Party was eliminated in the event called “Purge”, the Chaos Party, the embodiment of chaos, is currently roaming somewhere out of control with huge ambitions and the potential to create war at any time, and finally the Outer Party with the representative organization Frost Wisp, which is also the place where the “stranger” named Shird works. Although the Outer Party is the embodiment of neutrality, the members themselves are not too confident in what they are doing, wondering whether standing neutral to find a better solution is really right, is it really not against human nature?

Say it with me: "We listen, and we don’t judge." Okay, so hear me out. I may have made a small mistake. But to be fair, how was I supposed to know that the cherry blossom tree I fell asleep under was home to the cutest squirrel ever to exist? Like, ever. A squirrel that just so happened to be the beloved pet of a powerful demon goddess from another world. I didn’t mean to grab it in my sleep and cuddle it to death. I swear! Its tail was just so fluffy! I think... I can’t be too sure since I was loopy on cough medicine. I had this really bad cold thanks to my idiot brother, who can’t seem to cover his fudging mouth. I’m getting off track, aren’t I? Sorry, sorry. Anyway, after the demon goddess sensed her pet’s life come to an untimely end, she teleported to its last location and found my sleeping self cuddling the dead thing. Remember, "We listen, and we don’t judge!" I can’t be the only sleep-cuddler here! So, in her rage and pain, the demoness kicked me into another tree—at least, I’m assuming that’s what happened, because when I woke up in agonizing pain, my head was stuck in said tree. As you can imagine, I died soon after. Bled out, the whole shebang. Long story short, the drop-dead gorgeous (hehe, see what I did there?) demoness—whom I may or may not have developed a major crush on—ended my life. Hey! Don’t judge. She gave me warm chestnuts. Golden chestnuts. That’s clearly love, right? Wait, where was I? Oh, right. My future wifey turned me into the cutest, most adorable squirrel ever! The upside—besides being able to nap on the demoness’s perfect chest? It’s the fact that, while I’m no longer a human girl, I could eventually evolve back into a human form. All I have to do is level up. If only people would stop trying to capture me and make me their pet! Back off! I know I'm cute, but I belong to my Wifey. You can't have this cute squirrel!"
