Effortless

Love and Red Coloured Ties

Julius didn’t know what to expect when he stood in front of the grandiose gates, luscious fields, and beautiful students dressed in their pristine uniforms looking like a million bucks. He told himself that he wouldn’t get involved with anyone and that he’d keep his head down since the chances of him moving again were quite high. He didn’t expect to find himself to be so entranced with the dorm leader Agares Montgomery, the most handsome boy he’d ever seen. “So what’s Agares really like?” Julius asked. Silas grinned mischievously. “That’s a tough one.” Julius noticed the sly smile on Silas’s face and realized he’d been teased. “Just kidding~” Silas said, chuckling. “Well, Agares is a bit of a mystery. He’s strict but has a laid-back side too. He’s cold most of the time but can be surprisingly kind in rare moments?” Julius couldn’t help but laugh at the contradictory description. “Why do you make it sound like you’re unsure?” “Because he really is a puzzle. He’s not a bad guy, though. He keeps to himself and mainly communicates through the vice leader, Epaphras. He’s insanely popular, not just here but at Saint Ambracia Academy too. There have been incidents where girls from the academy tried to sneak into East Laurence just to see him. It’s crazy.” “Anyway,” Silas said, “you probably won’t interact with him much unless absolutely necessary, so don’t stress too much about it.” That should’ve been the case, and yet, he found himself interacting with the dark haired boy more and more, his admiration slowly started to change into something more. “Do I like him?” He couldn’t help but ask himself. ………………….. Avondale, a city of privilege and prestige, high school junior Julius Loriana steps through the grand gates of East Laurence Preparatory School, a renowned institution for the elite. Having spent years moving from city to city due to his father's job, he’s determined to keep his distance and stay under the radar in this new chapter of his life. But everything changes when he crosses paths with Agares Montgomery, the enegmatic dorm leader of House Ares. With his striking looks and effortless charm, Agares captivates Julius in ways he never expected. As Julius grapples with his resolve to remain detached, he finds himself drawn into a whirlwind of emotions that transforms his mundane existence into something exhilarating. Follow the love story between a shy boy and his socially inept senior as they navigate through the pains of love, friendship and the hell that is known as high school. …………………………… A little extra note: This is a sweet love story, a bit of a slow burn but definitely worth getting into.. Each chapter includes a song and I would definitely recommend you listen to the song (on low volume of course) while reading. You get to feel the full Julius Loriana experience by listening to the music he’s also listening to with each chapter. If this story happens to curry your fancy, then please give it a try, I promise it won’t disappoint (≧∀≦) ! Upload schedule: Everyday! *All images used are from Pinterest, including cover.

Lured by the Moon

Sebastian is called by many different names: lunatic, madman, crazy, and a monster.  
Pretending to be human is an effortless task; calculating and flirtatious is a mask he carries for centuries, playing with the lives of those around him as if they’re just a game. 
His closed heart never lets anyone in, keeping a distance from anyone except for his annoying family, who live and protect each other. Despite having a dysfunctional, crazy family yet being regarded with suspicion and dread, his heart longs for more.  
On that fateful night, he never thought it was possible for him to have another emotional connection.  
A young, feral boy carrying a hunter-knife is surrounded by blood, snow, and dead wolves in the forest. Why does his youthful body carry a grotesque canvas of scars like they tell a gruesome past? Why do his eyes carry a heavy burden that's too young for a human? Or is he a human in the first place? 
As he gets to know the bratty Atlas, who angers him and challenges him, test him to the limits. If it was anyone else, he would not hesitate sending them to their grave.  Soon, he would learn that Atlas carries a heavy, dark secret, where Sebastian had to look for an answer in Atlas's past and must decide if he's worth protecting.  ***
Flirtatious, heartless, and bored gong/seme/top protagonist x clingly, bratty, and ruthless shou

Dare to Be Mine

She hadn’t expected to be cornered like this, not here, not now. His tall frame loomed over her, blocking any escape as he stood inches from her, pinning her to the wall with his presence alone. His hand rested just above her head, his fingers brushing the cool surface of the locker, creating a barrier that trapped her in place. Her breath caught, her heart thundering in her chest as she realized how little space was left between them. His eyes were dark, full of something she couldn’t decipher but desperately wanted to understand. He stared at her, not saying anything at first, just letting the silence stretch between them. She could feel her pulse race, her face flushing, her body frozen, even though she wanted to push him away. “What are you going to do about it?” he asked, his voice smooth, teasing, and filled with a challenge. There was something in the way he spoke, something that made her stomach twist with a mixture of confusion and excitement. She opened her mouth to say something—anything—but the words wouldn’t come. Her hands hung at her sides, unsure whether to push against his chest or hold herself back. She couldn’t tell if she wanted him to step closer or if she just wanted to run far away from the intensity that radiated from him. “Stop…” she murmured, but the word felt too weak, too powerless against the gravity pulling them together. “What do you want from me?” His lips curled into a small, almost predatory smile. “I want you to stop pretending you don’t feel it,” he said softly, his gaze never leaving hers. His closeness was suffocating, but in the most intoxicating way. The tension between them was palpable, like a storm ready to break. She could feel the heat of his body against hers, could hear the steady rhythm of his breathing as if they were the only two people in the world. She wanted to fight back, wanted to be strong and resist, but something in her—something deep inside—kept her rooted to the spot. He was her classmate, the guy everyone knew, the one with that effortless confidence that made all the girls swoon. And now here he was, making her feel things she wasn’t sure how to deal with. Her hands trembled, caught between pushing him away and giving in to the wild, dizzying pull she felt toward him. She was terrified, but there was also a spark of curiosity, of something she couldn’t quite control. “I’m not… ready for this,” she whispered, though her voice shook with uncertainty. “I don’t even know what you’re doing.” He didn’t answer right away, his gaze softening just enough to let her know that he was listening, that he wasn’t in a rush. He leaned in slightly, his breath brushing against her cheek. “I think you do,” he murmured. “You just don’t want to admit it yet.” Amidst the whirlwind of school friendships, and the pressure. Can anyone dare to be open to the possibility with someone who seems so unreachable?

"Oops, I'm the Heiress?!"

Seventeen-year-old Myraa Hana Lee is nothing special—or so she thinks. In Montreal, she’s the invisible girl who blends into the background like an old piece of wallpaper. No popularity, no drama, and no problem—because Myraa likes her quiet life just the way it is. But when her mom suddenly ships her off to Japan for a “vacation,” Myraa’s ordinary world is turned upside down. First, there’s the sprawling Reizei estate, which looks more like a movie set than a home. Then, there’s Camellia Academy, an elite school full of rich, glamorous students who are convinced Myraa is someone important. To her shock, they’re not entirely wrong—because Myraa isn’t just another student. She’s the heiress to one of Japan’s most powerful families. Now thrust into a world of luxury, intrigue, and over-the-top attention, Myraa has to navigate her new life as “everyone’s darling.” But surviving posh parties, dramatic classmates, and relentless rumors is no easy task—especially when the Reizei family is full of secrets. At her side is Kyra Shion Reizei, her cool, protective (and infuriatingly charming) cousin who insists on acting like her personal knight. Myraa’s clumsy chaos contrasts hilariously with Kyra’s effortless grace, but as the two grow closer, their bond deepens into something Myraa doesn’t quite understand. With scheming rivals, glitter-bomb disasters, and a mysterious past threatening to unravel her newfound world, Myraa must decide: Will she rise to the challenge of being a Reizei heiress? Or will her clumsiness take down the entire legacy? “Oops, I’m the Heiress?!” is a heartwarming and hilarious tale of self-discovery, found family, and a dash of unexpected romance. Perfect for fans of lighthearted drama, witty banter, and swoon-worthy knight-and-princess dynamics!

My roommate's always flirting with me

Tara couldn’t believe her bad luck. Out of all the people looking for a roommate, she ended up with her boss, Selena. Selena—known for her sharp wit, enchanting looks, and a rumored history with a few past coworkers—had a reputation as the office “temptress.” Watching Selena move with that effortless allure, Tara silently vowed to keep a safe, respectful distance. But on the very first night of living together, that same untouchable boss ended up sleepwalking… right into Tara’s room, wrapping herself around her with surprising softness and refusing to let go, nestled into Tara’s chest as if it were the most natural thing in the world. Keeping her calm, Tara gingerly extricated herself, stepped onto the balcony, and drank a full glass of ice water—despite the frigid winter temperatures. “She’s straight. You’re just roommates. Don’t even think about catching feelings,” Tara told herself, hoping her resolve would hold. But Selena seemed determined to ignore any “distance.” After dodging yet another one of Selena’s friendly but borderline flirtatious invitations, Tara found herself cornered in the underground parking lot after work. Under the dim lights, Selena’s eyes sparkled with a hint of red at the corners. “Are you like everyone else? Do you hate me?” she asked, her voice tinged with unexpected hurt, a stubbornness that was oddly… sweet. The usual polite words Tara had on hand somehow lodged in her throat. Flustered, she stammered, “No… I’m just scared I might fall for you.” Selena had a secret: she was totally smitten with the company’s new intern. There was something about Tara’s quiet warmth and that little spark of defiance that pulled Selena in. So much so, that Selena willingly traded her comfortable apartment for a cramped 700-square-foot rental—just to be closer to her crush. She even went out of her way to “accidentally” create situations that would draw them together. But her darling intern remained unmoved, cool and reserved, her demeanor bordering on chilly. When a close friend pointed out that no one wants to room with their boss, saying, “Living with your boss just feels like working overtime every night,” Selena pouted but couldn’t deny it. Resting her head against Tara’s shoulder, Selena couldn’t help but think, Too true… I do have her working ‘overtime’ every night.

Sundara Kānda: Hanuman's Odyssey

Whereas Mahabharata's Bhagvad-Gita is taken as a philosophical guide, Ramayana's Sundara Kãnda is sought for spiritual solace; many believe that reading it or hearing it recited would remove all hurdles and usher in good tidings! Miracles apart, it's in the nature of this great epic to inculcate fortitude and generate hope in man for it’s a depiction of how Hanuman goes about his errand against all odds. Besides, it portrays how Seetha, on the verge of self-immolation, overcomes despair to see life in a new light? With rhythm of its verse and the flow of the narrative this sloka to sloka transcreation of the canto beautiful of Valmiki's adi kavya - the foremost poetical composition in the world, Hanuman's Odyssey that paves the way for Rama to rescue his kidnapped wife is bound to charm the readers and listeners alike. Interestingly, as the following verse illustrates, this epic was the forerunner of the magic realism of our times – “Gripped she then him by shadow / Cast which Hanuman coast to coast, Recalled he in dismay then / What Sugreev said at outset / That one fiend had aptitude / To grip its prey by mere shadow.” On a personal note, my paternal grandfather, Bulusu Thimmaiah-garu, like many in his time, was a life-long practitioner of Sundara Kãnda parayana (the epic’s daily recital in part or full), whose spirituality could have providentially guided me in this, rather an effortless, trans-creative endeavour.

a love that never fades(TAGALOG) (BL)

ALTNF 1 Ben Cariaga's POV "Ano na, asan ka na?" Sabi ko dahil hindi ko na talaga siya makita. Asan na ba siya? Masyado nang mataas ang narating niya! Mamaya mahulog to eh. "Wait, teka lang babi! Ang kati ng likod ko. Jan ka lang!" Sigaw niya mula sa itaas ng puno. Sa totoo lang, kanina pa ako nangangalay dito. Paano ba naman, kanina ko pa bitbit ang pagkalaki-laking bayong na 'to na naglalaman ng mangga. Yep, nasa mango-hunting kami ngayon ni Kristal. "Ano na bes? Nakakangalay na! Asan ka ba? You are nowhere to be found!" Sigaw ko. "Nandito ako, look!" Hinanap ko siya sa itaas pero hindi ko talaga siya makita. Masyado kasing maraming sanga ang nakaharang. Maya-maya ay may ginalaw-galaw siyang mga sanga at hinanap ko iyon. Nang makita ko ito ay ako ang nalula sa sobrang taas. "Hala Kristal! Gagi ka ba? Ang taas mo masyado! Bumaba ka na dyan, bago ka pa mahulog at masisi pa ako ng masungit mong mudrakels dahil ako ang nagpaakyat sa'yo dyan!" Sigaw ko sa kanya. "Babi, magtiwala ka sa akin. Kaya ko 'to. Ang dami kaya dito. Ready mo na yang bayong, dali!" Sabi niya. I frowned. Ano ba 'yan, bigat na bigat na nga ako dito tas biglang change location. Huhu. Hinanda ko na ang dala-dala kong bayong. Tama siya, ang dami ngang bunga ng mangga sa pwesto niya. Kumpul-kumpol at malalaki na. Sana lang hindi pa hinog ang mga 'yam. "Kris, ang dami masyado. Bawasan mo. Baka sa ulo ko tumama 'yan imbes na shumoot sa bayong." She chuckled, "Ok." At hinulog na niya isa-isa yung mga mangga. Marami-rami rin kaming nakuha. No, marami talaga kaming nakuha. Samantalang kami lang din naman ni Kristal ang mangangain nito. You know, summer. Ang sarap ng may mangangata. "Marami rin tayong nakuha. Tirahan natin si kuya Japs ng lima." Sabi ko. Bumaba na si Kristal sa ng puno nang walang kahirap-hirap. Taong unggoy 'yan eh. Kayang umakyat ng puno kahit gaano kataas ng effortless. Kahit maliit na babae yan si Kristal wag mong mamaliitin yan. Maraming 'yang kayang gawin sa buhay. "Tatlo lang? Gawin mo nang sampu." Sabi niya. I gave her a meaningful look, "Ok, ok, fine, fine. Crush mo eh." "Huh? C-crush ka diyan, wala akong crush no." She said, blushing. "Asus, oke, sabi mo eh." Sabi ko naman. Nagligpit na kami ng mga pinanguha namin at umuwi na rin kami. Bago ang lahat. Ben Cariaga ang pangalan ko. Si Kristal naman itong kasama ko. Kristal used to call me "Babi" dahil, wala lang. Trip lang daw niya. Kami 'yung tipong unexpected best friends kasi pagkalipat na pagkalipat nila dito, inapproach niya kaagad ako. Then ayun, instant BFFs. Minsan tinanong niya ako if I'm a gay. Napansin niya daw sa behaviour ko at way ko ng pagsasalita.

Now, she must face the consequences of her choices including the ones she made in the past. Against fate, mystical beings and foes, will she still get a happy ending? ----- "Why are you here?

She broke free from his grasp then strutted in hurry. Almost out of reach, she cheered herself. Unluckily... no. In a matter of seconds, she bounced back to his chest. All it took was an effortless pull of her arm. "You're coming with me." he stated with finality. Her eyes started to sting prompting her to lower her gaze before he noticed them teary. Earlier, she already accepted she was a lone fighter. Whether bruised or battered, she only had herself to soothe her wounds until he happened. It scares her so bad how tempted she is to depend on him. She cannot help but inhale sharply as he enclosed her in his arms. He filled her with warmth thawing her make-believe invincibility. Thus, awakens the urge to whimper and just collapse on the floor. "I felt your body shaking when I held you earlier and if I hadn't touched you, I'd never know. You're strong, independent and fearless, undoubtedly. However, we all need help sometimes and that includes you. Seeking help doesn't make you weak, Aragon."
