Kairos : The Controller of Time

In the beginning of the universe, it is said that Yggdrasil, a deity of life and immortality, was there from the beginning. It's a deity shaped as a tree. It was said that its branches could even surround the whole universe itself, like a baby to a mother's embrace. But despite being a deity that has been studied throughout the universe, and how it was thought that everything about Yggdrasil was discovered, there was something that it was hiding, a species that it had created. The elves you thought? No, they're simply humans that have evolved to adapt to the presence of lots of mana. No, a species where there can only be one existing individual. A species that can control time itself, the Kairos. "Pfft," "What bullshit, everyone knows that the Elves were created by Yggdrasil." AN: There will be instances of changing perspectives as I believe that they give a unique experience. But don't worry they won't last more than a few or couple of chapters. The story is written in a first perspective view where what you know is what the current narrative knows. Maybe sometime in the future I'll also experience with third person as well. Please take it easy on me with magic knowledge and mythological knowledge and future subjects. I'm merely a fool trying to please my readers as well as myself. Also don't expect every person to have 9000 iq and act like a edgelord, I personally find that overdone and boring, thank you! Also, this is my first serious(?) attempt at writing a novel, I am pretty much a newbie and all previous attempts I've never gone past a few chapters before giving up. I'm currently a student so I won't make any promises with chapter updates but I hope you'll give this novel a try. Thanks!

Having driven back the monstrous force that threatened to consume the universe, he discovers that his struggle was only the beginning. Unknown to him, the celestial Creators—vast, ancient beings who view reality as their playground—have set a new, insidious piece on their cosmic board: the Harbinger, an agent of the Hunger designed to lead its forces and unleash chaos on an unimaginable scale. With the mysterious Pharos Sphere in hand, Marcus sets out across alien landscapes, haunted by the relentless shadow of the Harbinger. As he fights through twisted creatures and cosmic horrors, he begins to realize that the Pharos Sphere, his only weapon, binds him to the Hunger, making him part of the very force he seeks to destroy. Each victory fuels the Hunger further, creating a cycle of defiance and destruction from which there seems no escape. Driven by the memory of a world lost and a defiance that even the Creators cannot quench, Marcus stands alone against the Harbinger, knowing that every step brings him closer to an inevitable end. But as the universe descends into darkness, he vows to resist—even if it means defying gods themselves. The Dominion of Shadows is a cosmic journey into the depths of power, fate, and rebellion, where Marcus Cassianus fights not just for survival but for his very soul, all while under the watchful gaze of beings who wield eternity as their game board.

"You can outrun many things, but fate will always find you, like your shadow in the light." . In the heart of Washington D.C., mafia heir Vaughn Volkov is on a mission that takes him far from the sun-soaked streets of California. The bustling city, with its imposing monuments and corridors of power, is a far cry from the palm-lined avenues of his home. Vaughn, however, is not one to be easily intimidated. His piercing blue eyes and commanding presence turn heads wherever he goes, a reminder that beneath his polished exterior lies a man accustomed to danger and control. Vaughn's path crosses with Eliza Monroe, a seemingly innocent college student whose gentle demeanor masks a resilience forged from her own turbulent past. Eliza, with her kind heart and determined spirit, is an enigma. She spends her days buried in books at the library, her nights working part-time to make ends meet. Her brown eyes, often hidden behind a cascade of dark curls, hold a depth that Vaughn finds both intriguing and unsettling. Their first encounter is anything but ordinary. Vaughn watches, intrigued by her fearlessness and the fire in her eyes. "You're not like the others," he remarks later, cornering her in the quiet corner of the library. His voice is a low, dangerous purr that sends shivers down Eliza's spine. "And you're not just the student here," she retorts, meeting his gaze with a mixture of curiosity and caution. "What do you want from me?" Vaughn's lips curve into a slow, dangerous smile. "Maybe I just want to get to know you." Despite her reservations, Eliza feels a strange pull towards Vaughn. His presence is intoxicating, a blend of danger and allure that she finds hard to resist. As they spend more time together, Eliza begins to see glimpses of the man beneath the mafia heir. Vaughn, too, finds himself drawn to Eliza in ways he never anticipated. Her kindness, her strength, and her unyielding spirit ignite something within him that he thought long buried. Yet, as their connection deepens, the shadows of their pasts loom ever larger. Vaughn's family business, shrouded in crime and violence, is never far from his mind. His enemies are ruthless, and his association with Eliza puts her squarely in their crosshairs. Eliza, too, harbors secrets. The dark forces that have shaped her life threaten to consume her, and Vaughn's world only amplifies those dangers. As their worlds collide, they must navigate a treacherous web of intrigue, passion, and forbidden desire. But with danger lurking around every corner, will their love survive, or will they be torn apart by the shadows of fate?
