A remake of another novel I created. Kazuki Takumi Amagiri was always a kid with a troubling life, abusive parents, poverty, being bullied at school you know the usual sob story that probably goes in a documentary for the early life of a serial killer or something. Throughout his life he's always wondered if maybe the reason world hates him was because he had the audacity to exist. But through a series of events he met his best friend and was introduced to a series of games where he found his spark of resilience to carry on in life in a character named Markus one of the main antagonists of the book. And ten years later he's a university student, dormmates with his best friend and is just about to finish getting his degrees. He'd also just finished playing the third installment in a his favorite video game franchise All was going well in life, things were looking up until in one cruel twist it was over, no fanfare, no "going out with a bang", Kazuki's life just fizzled out like a candle in the wind.

And more importantly how will it change our main character?

"I, Thandie Lohan vow to focus all my energy on building my career and the day I fall in love again will be the day the sun dances".

At the dawn of humanity, when tribes flourished and war was a constant shadow, I, the chief of my tribe, stood at a crossroads. Our enemies had already made their choice, transforming into creatures of the night—blood-drinkers, immortal, unstoppable. No tribe could challenge them, and we were next in line to face their wrath. Time was running out. To protect my people, I had to make a choice: remain human, or embrace something else entirely—something darker, monstrous. I chose survival over victory, and though we didn’t win, we lived. But that choice came with a price. Now, I awaken, memories lost, uncertain of who I am or what I’ve become.

Leo had been living a peaceful life when, suddenly, his tranquility was shattered by his haunting past. Someone he thought he'd escaped, someone he believed was behind him for good, was now chasing him once more. This time, no matter where Leo ran or hid, the person was relentless—coming for him. ..... Leo’s skin crawled under the touch, his breath shallow as he forced himself to speak. “Stop.” The figure’s eyes flashed with something dark, something possessive. “Stop?” he repeated, his voice a low whisper, like a soft hum in Leo’s ear. “You don’t really want me to stop.” Leo’s heart pounded, his vision blurring at the edges. “I’m not—” His voice broke, and he clenched his jaw, trying to pull himself together. “I’m not the same person you knew.” The figure’s smile returned, colder now, more menacing. “Neither am I.” Before Leo could react, the figure’s hand wrapped around his wrist, gripping tightly, pulling him closer. Leo gasped, his body stiffening as he was yanked forward, their faces now inches apart. He could feel the figure’s breath on his skin, cold and unsettling, his eyes burning into him with an intensity that made Leo’s stomach twist. “What do you want from me?” Leo’s voice wavered, his chest tightening as the reality of the situation settled in. The figure’s lips curled into a smirk, his grip tightening. “I want you to remember. I want you to feel what you’ve tried to forget.” Leo’s mind raced, his thoughts scrambling for a way out. But before he could say anything, the figure’s hand slid from his wrist to the back of his neck, pulling him in sharply. Their lips collided, a hard, forceful kiss that sent a shock through Leo’s entire body. Leo’s breath hitched, his mind screaming in protest, but his body was frozen, trapped in the overwhelming force of the moment. The figure’s grip tightened, his kiss rough, claiming, as if trying to erase every part of Leo that had moved on, every part that had healed.

It was wrong to be with her. And it was wrong to mess with him. They shouldn't be near each other. Anthony Kiel Cruise was just your typical bad boy with inferior complexity. For him, it was all just pure Attraction and the need for attention. For him, it was just a game, and it would be over soon. Cristina Rielle Cordova would rather sulk her ass off rather than be near the typical bad boy. She would rather listen to music and share memes on her newsfeed than experience the so-called stupid love. She hates him. He loves playing with girls' hearts. She is a snob. He is annoying. She is a challenge for him. Then everything slowly changes, and those changes aren't acceptable to him. But slowly and surely, he wants him wrapped against his carnivorous fingers, just like how he was wrapped in hers. "Cristina Rielle Cordova," the guy whispered to himself when he saw the girl. "Dude, it looks like you're attracted to the girl you've been staring at since earlier," said his friend Ken. He's right. He is damn attracted to Cristina Rielle Cordova. Not because she's attractive. He only has one reason. Cristina Rielle Cordova is the only girl who doesn't fall all over him. He has the looks and everything, but his charisma leaves the girl unaffected. "Cristina Rielle Cordova, I'll wrap you in my carnivorous fingers and be mine." A wicked smirk came out of his lips. Cristina Rielle Cordova, you're going to be mine.

I was reincarnated in a novel, yes, just as you hear it, but at least I was reincarnated as a handsome guy from one of the most important families in the empire; my life is already solved, right? I wish it was, the problem is that I was reincarnated as Arthur Reclesia, a useless bastard worthy of playing the villain who appears at the beginning to make the main character look good and then dies in a pathetic way, although if that was the only problem then it would be easy; just don't act like a jerk and that's it, but the Reclesia family I come from are not only traitors allied with the demons, but in the middle of the novel they are discovered and the whole family is massacred without leaving anyone alive. Damn, I didn't even finish reading the novel
