whispers of a Faded Spring

Li Mei returns to her childhood home in the picturesque riverside town of Lushan, drawn by a haunting sense of familiarity and longing she can’t quite explain. Her memories of the place are fragmented, blurred like ink washed by rain. Yet, within those faded recollections, she senses the echo of a promise and the shadow of a love that once meant everything to her. As she navigates the winding streets and misty hills of Lushan, Mei encounters Jun, the boy she had loved but cannot fully remember. Their reunion is filled with tension and unspoken questions, his eyes holding a pain she doesn’t understand. Determined to piece together her past, Mei explores the town, revisiting places that feel both foreign and familiar. Through old letters, whispered stories from neighbors, and flashes of memory, Mei uncovers the truth: she and Jun were inseparable as children, their bond growing into first love beneath the blooming cherry tree on Moon Bridge. But tragedy struck when Mei’s family moved away suddenly, her parents desperate to protect her from painful memories after a terrible accident. In an attempt to shield her heart, they took her far away and encouraged her to forget. But some promises are too powerful to fade. Mei had vowed to return to Jun beneath that cherry tree, and though her mind had forgotten, her heart never did. As the cherry blossoms bloom once more, Mei must decide whether to rebuild the bridge to her past and the love she left behind or to walk away and let the memories fade forever.

Dream Sketcher

Dreams can be deadly. Art can be a weapon. And love? Love is the most dangerous masterpiece of all. Arwyn Delacroix never knew his mother. All he has are the fragments of her life. A journal filled with sketches of sunsets she’ll never see, laughter she’ll never share, and a love letter to a son she’d never hold. And then there’s the gift his father left him: the power to bring his darkest fears and brightest hopes to life with the stroke of a pencil. Raised by a father who drowns his grief in silence, Arwyn aches to close the chasm between them. But every sketch he creates pushes him further into Terra Incognita, a world where not just his father's, but countless of other artists bleed into reality, and nightmares wear the faces of people he loves. But there were others that were present in this world. Kingdoms, landscapes, allies, friends, discovery. When his father hires a housekeeper, Arwyn finds an unlikely ally. A boy made of ink and memory, a living sketch who claims to know the truth about his mother’s death. Together, they unravel secrets his family buried: a warning about the cost of creation, enemies who crave Arwyn’s power, and the haunting truth that every stroke of his pencil steals a piece of his soul. But as Arwyn tries to fight to save his father from grief in both worlds, he begins to see himself in the monsters he fought. The line between artist and art almost fades. The boy in the mirror feels less like Arwyn and more like a stranger wearing his face. And so, he must choose: Become the weapon his enemies fear, or hold onto the boy his mother loved. In a world where imagination shapes reality, the greatest danger isn’t losing his life. It’s losing himself. ------------------------------------------- P.S: Expect the Prologue of this story to be an Urban Romance and Slice of Life, or even Tragedy. Very slow-paced as well, so I hope you guys can bear it ;-; But good thing is that it gives a bit of foreshadowing to the main plot. What to expect??? You get to see my unique power system, and the MC is a relatable guy I could say. MC also gets to make friends, and you're going to get to see him travel between Earth and Terra Incognita. It's also very dark, focused on self-discovery and sacrifice. But there'll be breathers here and there. Don't worry! Anyways, I really really hope you all read and like this debut novel!

Rejected by the Alpha, Marked by the Tyrant King

Rejected. Shattered. Desired by two. Torn between fate and freedom. I was supposed to be his. From the moment I was born, the bond between us had been written in the stars. Alpha Prince Cedric—my fated mate, my destiny, the one who was meant to cherish and protect me. But under the glow of the full moon, surrounded by the expectant eyes of the entire kingdom, he looked at me with nothing but disgust. "I, Cedric Nightbane, reject you as my mate." The words felt like a blade to my soul, severing something deep inside me. My body trembled, my Omega instincts screamed for me to submit, to plead for his love. But I wouldn’t. I wouldn’t beg for someone who never wanted me. So I ran. I ran from the whispers, the shame, the pain tearing me apart from the inside. I ran until my legs gave out, until I had nothing left—only to stumble into the hands of Dante Nightbane, the Tyrant King of the Shadowfang Empire. Where Cedric’s touch had been cold, Dante’s was searing. Where Cedric’s rejection had left me empty, Dante’s possessive gaze made something deep inside me burn. And when he inhaled my scent, something dark and unbreakable snapped into place. “Your mate was a fool to let you go, little Omega. But I am not.” Now, I am trapped in the arms of a monster—a ruthless, merciless Alpha who refuses to let me escape. He is nothing like the mate I once longed for. He is sharper, crueller… and yet, when I am near him, my body betrays me, drawn to the fire that burns in his touch. But there are secrets hidden in my blood, whispers of a lost royal lineage and a power that could change the world. Power that two Alphas are willing to go to war over. The mate who threw me away now fights to take me back. The tyrant who claimed me would destroy the world to keep me. But I am done being a prize for men to fight over. If fate dares to decide my path, then I will carve my own. And when I do—not even the strongest Alpha alive will be able to contain me.

Ancient Legends: I Got Tired of Waiting, So I Wrote My Own Reality

The Multiverse is a boundless tapestry of stories, each reality shaped by unseen hands—those of the Authors. At the heart of all existence lies the Grand Archive, a sanctuary where the most powerful wielders of the Pen of Eternity write and rewrite reality itself. But where there is creation, there is also destruction. From the shadows emerge the Erasers, entities dedicated to the systematic unmaking of existence. They seek to erase flawed worlds, tearing apart reality to reshape the Multiverse as they see fit. Standing between them and annihilation is a war fought not with weapons, but with words—where sentences shape destinies, and paragraphs decide the fate of worlds. Orion Vale was just another dreamer, a writer lost in his own imagination, until the day he uncovered the Pen of Eternity within the forbidden depths of the Grand Archive. Chosen—or perhaps cursed—by fate, Orion must navigate the perilous world of Authors, learning to wield his newfound power before his story is cut short. Guided by the enigmatic elder Authors, Orion embarks on a journey of creation and conflict, mastering the craft of narrative warfare to create his own story. Along the way, he faces foes capable of rewriting reality itself, including the malevolent Editor, a force beyond even the Erasers, seeking to decide which stories deserve to exist. From the Abyss of Forgotten Tales, where lost stories linger in darkness, to the Assembly of Authors, where legends decide the fate of the Prime Narrative, Orion must fight for his right to tell his own story. But as he grows stronger, he begins to unravel a truth greater than he ever imagined—one that could change the very foundation of the Multiverse itself. With creation and destruction locked in eternal conflict, Orion’s choices will decide the fate of all existence. Will he rise as a Guardian of Creation, preserving the delicate balance of stories, or will he embrace the path of the Unwritten, daring to challenge the laws of the Multiverse itself? In a world where ink holds power and every word shapes reality, Orion’s journey is only beginning. Ancient Legends: I Got tired of Waiting, so I Wrote my Own Reality is a tale of limitless imagination, reality-bending battles, and the eternal struggle between authorship and erasure. For in the end, only one truth remains: A story is only as powerful as the one who writes it

Heir of the Lost Wish

Once upon a time, before time itself took shape, there was an infinite Void, a total and absolute nothingness. The Void, though devoid of any movement, was not without desire. In a burst of creation, a secret yearning, it concentrated its essence into a single point. And from this point sprang the Well of Wishes, an endless abyss where pure possibility rested, a place where the potential of what was and what could be intersected. In the beginning, the Void had neither form nor consciousness. It was but a silent space, an abyss of inertia where the breath of nothingness whispered but one thing: a primordial wish. This wish, born from the depths of the Void, was both a hope and a mistake, a prayer cast into the darkness, asking for the birth of balance. But this wish, though silent, could not escape its destiny: to become the Well of Wishes, capable of giving life. From this well sprang two opposing entities: The Being of Light, the perfect figure of order and purity, seeking to create, to structure, to bring peace and clarity. The Being of Shadow, the chaotic reflection of nothingness, whose will turned toward destruction, toward instinct, toward the invisible that escaped forms and laws. These two beings, opposites yet intrinsically linked, gave birth to creatures, divided according to their natures. The Being of Light brought forth pure beings, enlightened souls, luminous creatures who would follow order. A page was turned, with a soft rustling of paper. "*The humans?*" murmured a curious voice. While the Being of Shadow gave birth to the monsters of darkness, wild and devastating beings, embodying instinct and chaos. *Should we not call them beings of shadow instead?* it murmured, thoughtful. But within them, a tragedy slumbered. Every light hid a shadow, every order a grain of destruction. The Well of Wishes had given birth to opposing beings, but through this duality, a question arose: could balance truly last? Thus unfolded the beginning of everything. A dream, a prayer, a wish lost in the silence of the Void. A forgotten wish. A broken balance. Written by: Elion Kline A sigh escaped, and the book closed, revealing its title: The First Wish In a small, dilapidated library, where dust seemed to have been an eternity, a young boy with fine, delicate features stood up. His eyes, as deep and dark as ink, sparkled with a curious light, while his silver hair, slightly tousled, caught the faint rays of the sun filtering through the dusty windows. He took the book in hand, his gesture slow and respectful.

The Illusionist System: Call for Tricks

[Congratulations!! You are now a Level 1 Illusionist.] Eric Grey has always been at the bottom of the food chain. As the weakest member of his clan, he’s endured years of ridicule, bullying, and being treated like a nobody. With no special abilities, no powerful guardians, and no clue about his missing parents, Eric’s life has been a constant struggle. The only thing he has to his name is a rusty, seemingly useless locket left behind by his family—a locket he’s never been able to figure out. But everything changes when a near-death experience triggers the locket’s hidden power. Suddenly, Eric is thrust into a world of illusions, tricks, and secrets he never knew existed. The locket awakens his latent ability as an Illusionist, a rare and mysterious class that bends reality itself. However, becoming an Illusionist comes with a catch: the path to mastery is filled with danger, deception, and enemies who will stop at nothing to see him fail. Now, armed with nothing but his wits, a handful of beginner-level illusions, and the cryptic clues hidden within the locket, Eric must navigate a treacherous world of power-hungry clans, ancient secrets, and deadly trials. From the shadows, he’ll rise, using his illusions to outsmart, outmaneuver, and outplay everyone who ever doubted him. But as Eric climbs higher, he begins to uncover the truth about his parents’ disappearance—and the dark forces that have been watching him all along. Will he master the art of illusions and claim his place at the top? Or will he become just another pawn in a game far bigger than he ever imagined? "In a world where power is everything, the greatest trick is surviving long enough to master it."
