As an omega who has never experienced his heat cycle, Haeun is constantly set up with alphas by his mother. Unfortunately, the pheromones of these alphas usually make him nauseous and disgusted. Everything changes when Haeun meets Cheon Yeongsoo a third-generation heir whom he has previously disliked. When Haeun encounters Yeongsoo’s pheromones, he is unexpectedly enveloped in a sense of safety and comfort—a feeling he’s never experienced before.

The room is unfamiliar, and the scent of Yeongsoo’s pheromones is overpowering. He tried to piece together the fragments of his memory from the night before, only to realize the gravity of his situation. The man he’s long disliked is now his unlikely savior, and the last thing Haeun wanted was to admit how much he had grown to need Yeongsoo. **Excerpt** Haeun looked up at Yeongsoo with a pout, his hand resting on his pregnant belly. “Will you still love me if I weigh 200kg and become very ugly?” Yeongsoo chuckled, pulling Haeun close and gently hugging his bulging stomach. “You’re already displeasing to the eyes, so it doesn’t really matter.” Haeun’s eyes welled up as he looked at Yeongsoo,obviously hurt. “Are you saying I’m ugly?” Yeongsoo’s smile softened as he held Haeun, brushing his fingers through his hair. “Whether you weigh 200kg or become ugly, you’ll always be the prettiest person in my eyes. Why? Because I love you. You’re my everything, Haeun. And no matter what, that won’t ever change.” Haeun’s heart swelled, a tear slipping down his cheek as he snuggled closer. “You really know how to make everything feel okay.” Yeongsoo kissed his forehead tenderly. “That’s because being with you is the best part of my life.” --- GT gifts-> 1-3 chapters (depending on amount) Gifts—> 1-5 or a mass release depending on how high the gift will be.

In a realm where mortals can ascend to divinity through trials and rituals, only those who bear the Godmark have the potential to unlock ancient powers long forsaken by time. The lost gods who once ruled these lands have left behind only echoes of their might, waiting to be reawakened by those brave enough to seek them out.

She's afraid of the dark, he embodies it. Most say her dresses are too tight, her heels too tall. She laughs too loud, cries too much, and smokes like her life depends on it, and in some ways it does. Little do they know, it’s just a sparkly disguise, there to hide one panic attack at a time. "As long as they were looking at my body, they'd never see what was behind my eyes." No one can see through Aurelia Cabrera's facade—not until he comes along. Some know him as an emotionless player, his nature as cold as the heart of ice in his chest. He changed through his girlfriends like they were underwear. But that was only because all the ladies loved the way he played his guitar when he and his rock band, "Zeveira", would perform their electrifying songs on stage. With a tendency to pick order and class as his companion, Alexei "Alex" Morozova has never been tempted to veer off course. But perhaps one should never say never... One autumn night and their lives intertwine. She hates him—his arrogance and habit of never taking anything or anyone seriously—but over the years, even as their games consist of insulting each other’s looks and intelligence, she begins to live to play with him. Nowhere in Alexei’s plans had he ever prepared for Aurelia. She’s chaos embodied, not his type, but that can never stop his eyes from following her wherever she goes. All along, she doesn’t even know that she’s his frustration, his fascination - and he's been craving this amount of fun for his entire life. She's his maddest craving.

Centuries ago, the world of Aethoria faced a catastrophe unlike any before: the arrival of the first-ever Calamity-rank monster, the Chaos Dragon. With a single breath, this beast could level cities, threatening to obliterate life across the planet. But on that fateful day, it wasn’t just the monsters that descended. The gods themselves intervened, sacrificing their powers to bless humanity and create the first generation of superhumans—the Ascendants. Leading them was Voideron, the Null King, the first and strongest Ascendant ever born. Voideron’s clash with the Chaos Dragon lasted for days, a battle so epic that it tore apart an entire continent, shaping the world forever. Though Voideron ultimately emerged victorious, his sacrifice became a legend, a tale of courage and might recorded as The Rise of the Ascendants. Now, five centuries later, the city of Novalith—home to the greatest guilds and brightest Ascendants—is thriving. Living among them is Loki, an Ascendant known for his charm, wit, and knack for mischief. Though he craves a simple life, the whispers of his mysterious powers and unusual talents have never quite allowed him to blend in. Loki just wants peace, but fate has other plans. He’s about to find himself at the center of a destiny larger than he ever imagined. [System Initializing: Lord of the Void] [Recognizing Host...
