In a world where magic thrives and mythical beasts lurk in the shadows, Tohgi Akura is born into the unforgiving southern district of Vandekar, a lawless land ruled by bandits and plagued by poverty. Despite his humble beginnings, Tohgi harbors an audacious dream: to achieve that dream he must become a Knight, a title synonymous with honor, power, and nobility. His raw talent rivals the elite, but his lack of noble heritage leaves him scorned by the privileged. Yet, Tohgi’s unwavering determination and resilience catch the attention of influential figures who see potential in the unrefined boy. With their assistance, Tohgi rises through the ranks, challenging a society built to keep people like him in the dirt. But ambition has its price. As Tohgi carves his path toward greatness, his defiance against the status quo ignites conflicts that spiral into devastating wars. In his quest to protect those he loves and what he stands for, Tohgi must grapple with the weight of his choices and the sacrifices demanded by his legacy. Will Tohgi Akura go down in history as a hero, a tyrant or just another man. His story is one of ambition, loyalty, and the unrelenting cost of dreams. Do not hesitate to comment your thoughts at any point in the story, it would bring me great joy to be able to interact with readers of my work. I hope to see you on the other side. PS: Bold text indicates the use of magic, parenthesis () indicates thought. Thank you! Enjoy! :)

[Warning 18+ : This novel will feature mature content.] She was 18 years old when she lost her parents in a car accident. Luckily she survived and her lovely grandfather Michael Shen (from her dad’s side) came back to take care of her. Francesca Shen (Erica) promises herself that she will avenge her dead parents when the times comes, but she never knew that her enemies were that close to her. She knew that her enemies wanted to take over her father’s company, and decided to study business in London for 4 years to take over her father’s company. 4 years later she is back in Z-city after she completed her bachelor’s degree in business, ready to take over the CEO position of the Shen Corporation (her dad’s company). On her way back to the airport she accidentally bumped into a man, she was busy talking to her best friends Sophia Zhou (Pia) and Jennifer Collins (Jen). Francesca immediately apologize and didn’t even look up to see who she pumped and before he could say something she was along gone with her friends. “Bro this is the first time a hot woman bumped into you, and she didn’t even look at you,” said Mark Chen while he tried so hard not to roll on the ground laughing like a three years old. While the other man beside him which were none other than the well-succeeded CEO, Kevin Lee chuckled while staring at the direction Francesca went with her friends. Kevin Lee (Austin) 24 years old, is the CEO of Lee Corporation, a powerful company at the top of the business world. He is known to be cold and unforgiving, and he also rules the underworld together with his best friends, Noah Song (Jason), Mark Chen (Zach), and Andrew Yang (Cody). A/N: The reason why there are names in parenthesis is that it is their nickname used in the underworld. Surely enough this will not be the last time for Francesca to bump into Kevin. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Btw my English is not my first language, so you will see some mistakes.

A bunch of short stories for/not for the heart _Some end Happy _Some end sad ~I would have made it so each title could be it's own book; but that would be to many 1 chapter books so I will squish them all on here, Like I said before. I ONLY WRITE SHORT STORIES: THEREFORE EACH CHAPTER WILL BE A DIFFERENT STORY WITH DIFFERENT PEOPLE. EACH TITLE WILL BE A NEW STORY. A STORY WITH MORE THEN ONE CHAPTER WILL HAVE NUMBERS IN PARENTHESIS AFTER THE TITLE. There is no specific update day - I update when I wanna. Each story may/may not have a plot. *Target: Everyone *Genre: A bunch of diffrent types/ Mostly Romance Fiction <3~If I get enough comments that I should actually write a full chapter book then I just might.
