A sickle lodged deep in his neck, cold steel biting through flesh. Voices murmured around him, debating his fate as blood poured in thick rivulets, staining the ground beneath him. His vision wavered, the world blurring at the edges. Fragments of memory surfaced, slipping through his grasp as darkness crept in. With faltering breath, he muttered a prayer. "Pitiful child," a voice crooned, its melody both soothing and unsettling. Then—screeching tires. A violent crash. From nowhere, a truck barreled through the alley, crushing him and his murderers beneath its weight. The world went silent. Kevin awoke. The question of where he was lingered in his mind, yet he could feel it. An eerie, suffocating void stretched around him, vast and oppressive. There was no warmth, no sound, only the weight of nothingness pressing down, as if his very soul could wither away. "Pitiful child," the voice whispered again, its presence weaving through the void. "Love evades you. Singled out, discarded, assumed to be nothing. No one would mourn your disappearance." A flicker of sadness crossed Kevin’s face. "But there is no redemption for you here either. You will serve as a tool for my adversary, fulfilling what I cannot. Your existence has granted me this moment, and in return, you will perish as you were always meant to. Your memories of this life and our encounter will fade" A hand emerged from the abyss, pale and grotesque, reaching for him. Kevin’s very being twisted. A sensation beyond pain, beyond fear—something worse. An unbearable pressure built inside him, warping his essence, as though he were unravelling, torn apart from within. Then came the rage. A lifetime of being used, manipulated, and discarded. Again and again, others had shaped his fate, moulding him to their will. Even now, even here, the cycle continued. No more. Through the agony, he roared. "I will not be what you want or what anyone wants. Even without my memories, I will hunt, I will devour, and I will carve my own path. It doesn’t matter if you are a god or the devil” The entity smiled. "I am no god. I am no devil. " Its voice echoed, a whisper and a thunderclap all at once. "I am A@#!@ro♧h!!"

In der fernen Zukunft hat die galaktische menschliche Zivilisation das Zeitalter der Mechs erreicht. Die zahllosen niederen Mächte der Menschheit haben sich Mechs als ihre wichtigsten Kriegswaffen zugelegt. Nur wenige Menschen haben die richtige genetische Veranlagung, um diese zerstörerischen Kriegsmaschinen von der Größe von Gebäuden zu steuern. Ves Larkinson, der aus einer Militärfamilie am Rande der Galaxis stammt, ist einer der vielen Menschen, denen das Talent fehlt, sich in der Schlacht Ruhm zu verdienen.

Seine Mechs, die auf den Prinzipien des Lebens basieren, ermöglichen ihm einen schnellen Aufstieg. Seine leistungsstarken und mit Mech-Piloten bestens kompatiblen Produkte haben das Potenzial, den Markt im Sturm zu erobern. Doch der Erfolg stellt sich nicht von selbst ein, und unzählige Herausforderungen erschweren es ihm, seine Mechs auf einem Markt zu verkaufen, der nach Innovationen lechzt! Während die Sünden der menschlichen Rasse in der galaktischen Arena langsam aufholen, muss Ves die Gefahren des ultrakompetitiven Mech-Marktes meistern und die Kontrolle über seine wachsende Organisation von Außenseitern behalten.

Two childhood friends who met through dance, competed, and formed a crew together were inseparable until recently. Years of bonding are now being quickly stretched to their limits. Will these friends find their drifting ship, or will they choose an alternate journey altogether?

MATURE CONTENT WARNING!!: These people be getting freaky in the sheets! "You think I haven’t noticed your eyes on me?" Kai En's voice was dangerously low, his lips curled into a cruel smile. "The way they linger— you can’t decide whether to kill me or kiss me. Am I right, little alpha?" ... For as long as Jun could remember, vengeance had been his only purpose. The last survivor of a disgraced family, he vowed to tear down the empire that destroyed his life, starting with its most prized jewel—Prince Feng Kai En.  Now, under the guise of Xiao Liu, a lowly servant in the prince’s retinue, he plans his revenge. But nothing could have prepared him for what awaited within the palace walls. Neither Xiao Liu’s sharp blades nor detailed plans were good enough to fall the man behind the title. Every failed assassination attempt and heated exchange left him more entangled with the man he was meant to destroy. Kai En—ruthless, untouchable, and powerful. An alpha in the eyes of all. Xiao Liu uncovered the prince’s greatest secret—beneath the façade lay something far more dangerous and vulnerable. Something Xiao Liu intended to exploit. Duty had always been Kai En’s burden. Yet Xiao Liu’s presence stirred emotions long buried—desires with no place in his world. Every attempt on his life only deepened the prince’s fascination, pulling him into the chaos Xiao Liu brought. As war looms and enemies close in, their dangerous dance intensifies. Desire grows where hate once ruled, pulling them into a storm of violence, lust, and something deeper. “You’ll never belong to anyone else,” Xiao Liu snarled, his lips finding Kai En’s neck again, biting down hard. “Not her. Not anyone. You belong to me.” Xiao Liu knows Kai En is the key to his revenge, but the more their lives tangle, the harder it becomes to tell if it’s vengeance he craves… or the prince himself. And Kai En must face the ultimate test that could break his kingdom and heart. Can Xiao Liu destroy the man he’s come to obsess over, or will he fall first?

Kira grew up knowing that kindness could get you killed. Raised in the slums of a broken world, she survived by learning how to stitch wounds with shaky hands and barter medicine for scraps. But when the mutation wave swept through humanity, gifting some with godlike powers, Kira awakened the rarest ability of all—healing. Now, she’s the most valuable prize in a world ruled by violence and desperation. The government wants to lock her away, warlords want to claim her, and the desperate will do anything to possess her touch. But Kira isn’t some fragile flower to be plucked—she’s all thorns. On the run and fighting to stay free, Kira finds herself tangled with four dangerous men: • Cain, the stone-faced protector who kills without hesitation. • Ash, the wild rogue whose grin hides teeth sharper than any beast. • Lucian, the arrogant heir who believes everything—including Kira—has a price. • Alaric, the quiet outcast who sees the pain she hides beneath her fire. They all want something from her—protection, power, or maybe something more. But in this brutal world, desire can be as dangerous as a knife to the throat. And the only person Kira truly trusts… is herself. Because while her touch may heal, her heart is wrapped in thorns—and anyone who tries to claim her might just bleed for it.

There exists no obstruction for a one-track mind like Latona Cassel's. If there is no path laid at her feet, she will carve her own instead. With the meager life she struggles to endure, desperate measures are far more convenient and called-for. So when Latona sets her eye on something indispensable, she isn't afraid to seize it, even if it means clawing a prize out of another's hands. For the sky may be the limit, but her desire to possess goes beyond it. Yet one pathetic truth remains—she still foolishly holds out for Gideon Regis who has severed her hands before she ever had the chance. After all, Gideon is nothing without his rigid morals. He lives only to follow what have been established for him: obedience, honor, family values. If he were to step even an inch outside those lines, hell itself would be damned. But amidst lingering stares and tension palpable in the air, how do you brush off the scorching ardency that gnaws at your bones? Storms have been stirred. Nights have fallen. Do you douse in resolution, or do you let it all burn and consume? [Written in Tagalog and English]

This is a story made up of my daily essays when I was in high school. I came to the decision to put all of my English essays into a story. I hope you enjoy these stories:) Also warning there may be spoilers about shows in here because I have finished them or was half way finished with them in high school.

A band of amnesiac souls journey to reclaim their forgotten memories after having their bodies toyed with and consciousnesses placed into dolls—dolls, which once inhabited, grant the user a supernatural touch that can alter reality…

A totally generic high school romance-comedy with all the tropes included. Only problem is, the main character knows he is in one? Not only that, but he just so happens to hate romcoms with a burning passion. He decides to traverse through his high school life avoiding all the crappy and dull tropes while also using them to his advantage alongside two other guys. Involves tropes and stereotypical characters, be warned that there may be some references to other media you may not get!

Join him on his journey as he navigates the various dangers of a perilous environment where his kind is relentlessly pursued by humans. Follow his transformation as he becomes stronger, faces challenges, and fights for survival in a world plagued by war and ceaseless threats to his existence. This is my first novel and English is not my first language, so please don't expect something grandiose. Putting my visions and daydreams on paper and crafting something out of it is more difficult than I first imagined, but I will do my best to make the story as good as I possibly can so please be patient.

Based in a future after a Second World War

In the rusted ruins of a once-great metal city on the outskirts of civilization, Wu Yi lives a harsh but happy life, surrounded by those he calls family. Though myths of cultivation and the lost kingdom of Valtir ignite a yearning deep within him, he is not reckless enough to chase after ghosts and leave behind the people he loves. But fate does not wait for dreamers. When tragedy strikes and the fragile peace of his world is shattered, Wu Yi is thrust into the heart of civilization—a realm of power, ambition, and ruthless human nature. In this brutal world, strength is the only law, and those without it are doomed to be crushed beneath the heels of the strong. Faced with loss, betrayal, and the cruel machinations of fate, Wu Yi teeters on the edge of darkness. Will he become the very monster he despises, or will he defy the heavens themselves to carve his own path? In a world where only the strong survive, the gears of fate turn mercilessly. But Wu Yi's hands burn with the power to seize them—or break them entirely.

In the depths of a primeval forest, where ancient trees twisted towards the sky like skeletal fingers, their gnarled branches tangled in a canopy of darkness. An impenetrable darkness, an unearthly silence reigned like a velvet cloak, gently suffocating all that breathed, trembled, or stirred within its grasp, like a psychopath predator. The air was heavy with the scent of damp earth and decaying leaves, and the only sound was the soft, mournful rustle of leaves, as a chorus of whispers, shrouding the landscape in an eternal, spine-tingling twilight. The darkness suddenly trembled, a slow, bone-chilling glow began to seep from the shadows, casting an ethereal luminescence across the forest floor. The soft, pulsing light grew in intensity, illuminating the source of the glow; a girl with a kind of beauty that transcended the natural, whose presence seemed to command the very air around her. Her eyes, akin to a pair of golden flames, burned with an inner fire, and her hair shimmered with an otherworldly radiance, each flowing strand crackling with raw energy, as if the moon itself had descended to earth. Yet, despite her captivating beauty, an aura of terrifying power emanated from her being, making the trees seem to shudder and the shadows recoil in fear. .... In a world where the natural and supernatural coexist, One of the kingdoms ruled by humans, Eldoria, stood as a beacon of ultimate power and magic. Ruled by its charming and wise King, King Aaron. The kingdom is a delicate balance of human and supernatural forces, for the king's four wives—a vampire, a werewolf, a witch, and a human—add to the complexity of its politics. Brittany, the last child of King Aaron, is a kind-hearted and gentle soul. Despite being half-sister to eight powerful siblings, each possessing extraordinary abilities. She seems to lack the one thing that would make her truly special. Her enchanting amber-bluish hazel eyes and long silky brunette hair set her apart from her siblings' striking appearance. Constantly bullied by her sisters, Brittany's world is one of fear and uncertainty. But Brittany's life is about to take a drastic turn. The original facade of her life shattered on a single pivotal day. She begins to undergo transformations, signaling the emergence of powers she never knew she possessed. The air around her crackles with transcendenal electricity, and her senses come alive with an otherworldly intensity. When darkness arises, threatening the kingdom, could her newfound strength becomes the key to their survival or will history repeat itself? She must navigate a treacherous path, facing malevolent forces, uncovering hidden truths about her heritage; every step is a battle for survival. But will she be able to control the primal power rising within her, or will it consume her and her loved ones completely? ««« This book is divided into certain series including; -Burns Eternal. -Bounded by Flames. - Flames From The Past. »»» This is a book I write in my spare time, so expect limited uploads.
