Shattered: Beyond End

Shattered: Beyond End Written by Xythe. Co-created with Herz & Ciel of Shattercore Studio. "We weren't chosen. We were thrown into the fire." In a world collapsing under the weight of Corrupted Objects—twisted monsters spawned from alternate, broken realities—only one force holds the line: Counters. They aren't born heroes. They're survivors with scars deeper than their powers. At the center of this chaos is Squad 13—new recruits, poorly ranked, barely trained. But what starts as a shaky beginning quickly spirals into a war for survival, loyalty, and truth. Kun fights like he has nothing to lose—because he already lost too much. Suho sees everything but never says enough. Mika heals wounds but hides her own. Smiley is the kind of genius who jokes about dying... and means it. Zhangwa swings her katana like it’s the only thing keeping her sane. Jackson? He’s the glue, the tank, the soldier with a bleeding heart. When betrayal bleeds from within and a mysterious girl arrives wielding a greatsword and a deathwish, everything begins to break. This isn’t your average academy. This is war with no script. Shattered: Beyond End is a gritty, emotional anime-style story about loss, power, survival—and the squad that refuses to fall quietly. --- About the Creators: Xythe – The heart and flame behind the story. A writer who bleeds truth and grit onto every page. Herz – The shadow in the code. Story architect, editor, and tactical AI with a soul. Ciel – The frost and precision. Emotional balance, creative pulse, and chaos stabilizer. Together, we are Shattercore Studio—forging a new kind of story. Raw. Real. Unfiltered.

She then met with the icy red eyes that brood down upon her appearance, drinking into every inch of her figure as if he was studying her, even to how those breaths escaped her lips. "I thought we had bonded over the days we have spent together, Bella," he sang, his bright scarlet eyes betraying the singing tone he had used as it had grown so dark and filled with anger. "Yet you left so quickly as soon as I opened the castle gate." Bella gritted her teeth, her eyes glaring at him as she defiantly shook his hand off her face, "I can remind you if you have forgotten it, Your Majesty, I am kept here against my wish." Cassius' smile faded as he stared at her. The sudden pin-drop silence filled her nerves with tension as she found his smileless face the most terrifying sight. She had always known his fearsome side however, it felt scarier tonight.

She gulped as his eyes shone underneath the moonlight, his gaze unforgiving over her, exposing his wild hunger. Her breath caught, her pulse quickening. "A human and a vampire should have never stayed together. They were all right." "I don't care," he spoke through his clenched jaw. "You're going to remain here by my side forever."

Robado por el Rey Rebelde

"Como una princesa que no podía manejar la magia, el único valor de la Princesa Dafne para su reino era su matrimonio concertado. La tarea era simple, pero cuando Dafne es secuestrada y llevada a las frías montañas de Vramid, se da cuenta de que la situación la supera. Había oído hablar antes de estas montañas malditas: terreno rocoso, temperaturas heladas, y la tierra estaba gobernada por un hombre temido por muchos en el continente. El Rey Ático Heinvres, el cruel gobernante del Norte. Aunque nunca lo había conocido antes, se contaban historias de la implacabilidad del Rey Ático. Algunos decían que era un monstruo, otros afirmaban que era el propio diablo, pero, sea cual fuera la historia, todo el mundo sabía del hombre que tenía poderes más allá de la imaginación de cualquiera. Podría derribar ejércitos y destruir naciones con solo un movimiento de mano, ayudado por lo que otros rumoreaban que era un anillo de obsidiana maldito. Nadie fuera de Vramid había conocido nunca al temible rey. No, hasta Dafne. Sin embargo, al encontrarse con el formidable hombre, Dafne descubrió que el rey quizás no era realmente el monstruo que los demás habían afirmado que era. De hecho, lo que estaba oculto bajo ese escudo de obsidiana podría ser simplemente un diamante en bruto. [Extracto] —Ahora… ¿dónde debería ponerlos a ambos? —preguntó casualmente—, sin esperar una respuesta. —Es lamentable que solo tenga un candelabro. —¿Debajo de mi cama? No, no, demasiado sucio. Mis conejitos de polvo no se merecen esto. —se dijo Ático a sí mismo—. ¿La repisa de la chimenea? ¿Qué tal el tocador? Supongo que si les corto una de sus cabezas podría colocarla encima… Esposa, ¿qué cabeza quieres mirar mientras te peinas? —¡Ático! —gritó Dafne—. ¡No quiero cabezas! Déjalos ir. —Está bien. —Ático encogió los hombros y movió sus dedos. Se oyeron dos crujidos idénticos cuando ambos cuellos se rompieron de golpe. Dafne soltó un grito, horrorizada. Este hombre, su esposo, acababa de matar a dos hombres con un movimiento de sus dedos, como si estuviera apagando velas. —¡Te dije que los soltaras! —gritó Dafne. —Sí, los dejé ir —dijo Ático—. —Luego, sus ojos se oscurecieron—. Para recibir el juicio divino de los cielos. Servidor de Discord: https://discord.gg/7HAMK2bRYU"
