Chain Warden

Outlawed Desires: Beyond the Chains

Asher Carter has spent his entire life hiding his true self. In Eldermire—a town ruled by the iron grip of the Council of Purity—being different is dangerous, and some kinds of love are a crime that can cost you everything. Orphaned young and raised under the council’s suffocating laws, Asher has learned that survival means keeping his head down. By day, he works as a waiter at The Gilded Spoon, an elite café where the town’s powerful gather. By night, he dreams of a life where he doesn’t have to pretend. Then there’s Malcolm Hayes—the mayor’s son. Wealthy, charming, and engaged to the daughter of a high-ranking council member, he is everything Asher can never have. To the world, Malcolm is the perfect heir to Eldermire’s legacy of purity. But beneath the polished facade, he's living a life that isn't truly his—while being irresistibly drawn to the quiet waiter he just can't stop thinking about. One moment, they were just two men living separate lives. The next, they are fugitives. Hunted by a town that sees their love as an abomination, Asher and Malcolm’s only hope is to escape beyond Eldermire’s borders—to a place where love isn’t punished. But running won’t be easy. In a world where their love is forbidden and betrayal is inevitable, the question isn’t just whether they can escape—but whether their love is strong enough to survive. --- Trigger Warning: This story explores dark and intense themes.

Emerald Eclipse: War of the Cosmos

In a universe where the fragile balance between freedom and control is unraveling, an ancient power reawakens—the crystal, a relic of unfathomable energy capable of reshaping existence itself. Four cosmic factions, each driven by their own vision for the future, race against time to seize the crystal before their rivals do, igniting a war that will decide the fate of reality itself. The Luminaries, champions of justice and cosmic harmony, seek to prevent the crystal from falling into the wrong hands. The Kivuli, masters of shadow and manipulation, crave absolute control to enforce what they see as universal order. The Cosmic Command Collective (CCC), a ruthless machine of galactic conquest, seeks the crystal to cement their rule over all existence. And the Wardens, a rebellious force of outlaws and idealists, fight to break the chains of oppression, even if it means unleashing chaos. As these factions collide across the cosmos—from shattered worlds to celestial battlegrounds—ancient rivalries resurface, alliances are tested, and betrayals rewrite destiny. But as they inch closer to the crystal, they begin to realize that the true danger isn’t just each other—it’s the raw, unchecked power they seek to control. When the final confrontation erupts at the heart of the universe, the battle will transcend mere war. It will become a test of ideology, morality, and the very nature of power itself. As the dust settles, only one truth will remain: those who seek to shape the cosmos must first face the consequences of wielding creation itself.

Chains Lifted: Her Second Act

She was a well-made daughter - molding herself into whatever they needed her to be. A perfect doll. A flawless façade. She mastered every expression, every action, and played her role without fault, because this part of her life belonged to them. But not for long. There will come a time when she will break free. No longer will anyone dictate her path or define who she must become. She will be the sole director of her life. Yet, just as her carefully laid plans were slowly reaching their climax, her world began to turn upside down. One disruption after another—incidents she could never have foreseen—and new acquaintances who refused to stay away no matter how often she cut ties with them. Her life had always been difficult, but these unexpected twists thrust her into a roller-coaster ride she never asked for, even bringing a hesitation she had never imagined she’d feel with her plans. Like a caterpillar struggling to form its cocoon, she is fighting for her own transformation. But she knows that once she emerges, she will be a butterfly—free to soar higher than ever before. … “Let me tell you now, your kindness? I don’t need it. What you offer? I don’t want it. And a piece of advice—be careful with your kindness. It might bring pain to those you wish to protect, rather than support.” She turned her back, leaving him standing there, watching her retreat into the distance. … "Because I was like her once—filled with guilt. Those were the words I needed to hear, the ones I gave up hoping for long ago." He looked at her, his gaze softening with sympathy. “And you don’t seem like someone who’s ready to free herself from that guilt.” “Someday, maybe. But not yet. Not just yet.” “When that time comes,” he asked gently. “Will you tell me first?” She paused, meeting his eyes before a faint smile touched her lips. “I suppose I can do that much.” … “Whatever I’ve been through, no matter how difficult, I’m proud of it. I’ll never feel ashamed of the things I’ve done to reach this point.” She cupped his cheek, her touch gentle but firm. “So don’t feel bad for me. Be proud of me. While you weren’t there, you were always on my mind. You gave me the strength to keep going. Remember that.” He leaned into her hand, his voice quiet. “Then tell me… tell me everything you’ve experienced.” 14 chapters a week... Published 1 minute apart...

Lovers In Forever

In a world struggling for balance, Blithe del Rosario, a celebrated fashion designer from Maha, Zubu in Maharlika, led a complex double life. By day, she was known for her breathtaking couture, each piece reflecting the rich culture and resilience of her homeland. However, beneath her captivating beauty lay a dark secret: by night, she transformed into the notorious assassin Lady Dragonfly. This alter ego, forged from necessity and survival, allowed her to blend into shadows, striking fear in the underworld as she sought vengeance for her parents' murder and searched for her missing brother. Meanwhile, in Alkebulan, Chain Singh ascended to the rank of five-star general, known as Marshal Law—the Battle War God of the Zuid Military Forces. Born Citrine Leohart-Curseal, his noble lineage added depth to his character. Renowned for his strategic brilliance and charismatic leadership, he was a key figure in military operations, respected yet feared by his peers. Despite his stoicism, Citrine grappled with the moral complexities of war, yearning for peace and a deeper understanding of his role in the ongoing violence. Unbeknownst to them, Blithe and Citrine's souls were eternally intertwined. They were one soul, connected by love, destined to find each other in every reincarnation. Their paths converged one fateful night when they shared a passionate one-night stand, igniting Blithe's feelings for the unassuming Chain Singh. Citrine, however, was captivated by the lethal persona of Lady Dragonfly, feeling an inexplicable connection to her dark allure. This created a complicated love square: Blithe's affection for the plain Chain clashed with Citrine's idolization of Lady Dragonfly, whom he revered without realizing her true identity. As their lives became increasingly entangled, emotional stakes grew higher. Blithe found herself torn between her thirst for vengeance and her unexpected love for Chain Singh. Simultaneously, Citrine's heart was caught in a bittersweet struggle, unknowingly pursuing a love intricately linked to the darkness Blithe was trying to escape. Their bond deepened further, leading to the birth of six children, which bound them in ways they had not foreseen. Together, they faced the weight of their pasts—Blithe with her relentless quest for justice and Citrine with the burdens of military command. Their complementary skills became vital assets in their shared pursuit of truth and a better future, blending Blithe's intuition and agility with Citrine's analytical prowess and strategic mind. As they ventured deeper into the tumultuous heart of their society, they encountered ruthless organizations, cunning scientists, and disillusioned citizens, each with their own agendas. The web of alliances and betrayals became increasingly complex, demanding that they navigate with caution and skill. Through this journey, they built a fragile yet profound trust, united in their common cause, while grappling with the tangled emotions stemming from their own love square.

Visfall

[2025 WSA Entry] Deep in the heart of Vyrandia, where bloodlines dictate worth and magic defines fate, a child is born. But he is born with nothing. No Vis to shape the world. No gifts to mark him as blessed. A hollow vessel, empty and powerless. A disgrace to his father’s bloodline. And so, he and his mother are cast out—left to the mercy of the cold. But as his life slips away, something stirs in the silence. Something buried. Something forgotten. When he awakens, he is no longer just an exiled child. He is something unnatural. Taken in by the Wardens, the last remnants of an ancient order sworn to maintain balance between the mortal and spirit worlds, Ravenn is thrust into a reality far beyond what he ever imagined. The world is fracturing. Monsters of old are rising. Forgotten truths surface. And within him, a power unlike any other begins to awaken. As the Wardens send him on missions—to cursed villages, ancient libraries, and forgotten civilizations, each filled with whispers of the past, and the horrors coming—Ravenn begins to uncover the fractures in the world’s foundation. The echoes of something ancient call to him, pulling him toward a fate entwined with forces long thought extinguished. But he is not the only one searching, not the only one burdened with purpose. There are others—hunters and allies alike who have waited for his return, gods who fear what he might become, and enemies who will do anything to bury the past he is destined to unearth. Because to them, some echoes are best left buried. But for him, every echo will rise.

Noctis Veil

In the neon-lit metropolis of Valentis, the world appears orderly and controlled. But hidden beneath the surface, an ancient darkness stirs—a parallel realm known as the Noctis Veil. A place where light dies, forgotten souls wander, and those who enter rarely return. Orion Vale never asked to be a part of this world. Orphaned and struggling to survive in the underbelly of the city, he lived by one rule: stay unnoticed. But when an accidental encounter activates a strange mark on his body, Orion is suddenly thrust into a deadly game where the stakes are far beyond his understanding. Hunted by creatures that shouldn’t exist and pursued by powerful factions who see him as either a weapon or a threat, Orion’s only hope is to uncover the secrets of the Veil before it consumes him. Guided by the enigmatic Seraphine Dusk, a rogue operative who knows too much, Orion learns that his curse is not just an anomaly—it is a key. A key that could either shatter the chains of the Veil or awaken something far worse. But every step deeper into the shadows comes at a cost, and Orion must decide whether to fight his fate or embrace the darkness within. As the war between the Veil Wardens, the corrupt Eclipse Syndicate, and the ancient Veil Lords reaches its breaking point, Orion realizes he stands at the crossroads of destruction and dominion. In a world where nothing is as it seems, where shadows whisper and forgotten gods stir, the question remains: Will Orion break the Veil, or become its ruler?
