Lily X Lincoln Loud House

The billionaire’s haunted house

… “One fifty.” I heard someone shout. “One sixty.” Another said immediately. “Two hundred.” “Five hundred thousand dollars.” “Five hundred thousand dollars, going once, going twice, sold.” Cesar announced and everybody clapped. “What was that?” Drego barked. “What?” I blinked, my smile slowly dissipating. “Why did you agree to stand up there? And looking like this for that matter.” I frowned. “Like what?” “Did you enjoy the fact that men were bidding on you like some prost—” My palms flew and landed on Drego’s face before I could understand what I was doing. “You don’t get to judge how I decide to look. Who the hell do you think you are to judge me? I did what I did for charity. You’re my boss, don’t cross any lines.” I turned around to leave. “Wait. Nichole I’m sorry.” He said more calmly. I looked at him again. “Because I told you that I was in love with you doesn’t make it okay for you to get involved in my personal life and decisions.” “It’s not like—” “Don’t worry. The day I quit was my first day getting over you. You don’t have to worry about that crazy talk. I’m over you. And I’ll leave your company the second you find my replacement and you won’t have to see me anymore.” “Nichole please listen—” “Drego, you’re up.” Reid came outside. His expression changed. It was no surprise. The tension between Drego and I was palpable. “Is everything okay?” Reid asked. “Yeah.” I replied. “We are done here.”

House of Stone

Two friends. One mysterious 'System'. A second chance at life. Adrian and Marcus never expected to die young. Yet, when they awaken in a cosmic void, a voice gives them a compensation deal: reincarnation in a brand-new world, with their memories and sense of being intact. Given a finite pool of Karmic Points, they must carefully choose their advantages, their starting position, and even the world itself where they will be reborn. Adrian—ever the strategist—opts for long-term gain, while Marcus, impulsive and bold, just craves excitement. Together, they make a fateful decision: they will be reborn as a minor noble brothers in the Azura Federation, a land of shifting allegiances, merchant-noble, and cutthroat politics. When the time comes to spend their last remaining Karmic Points, Marcus proposes a radical gamble: rather than buying minor advantages, they sacrifice everything for unrestricted access to the System’s hidden exchange mechanics. The deal is struck—but at a cost they don’t fully understand. Now, as they navigate a world of noble houses, military conflicts, and hidden agendas, Adrian and Marcus must use every advantage at their disposal to not only survive this life—but to try finding a way of securing their place in the next cycles of life in the far future. What happens if they fail? If their Karmic points reach zero when they die in this new life they are about to embark? The System refuses to say. With magic, danger, and unseen cosmic forces lurking in the shadows, the two must play the ultimate game of strategy. But as they rise, one other question always looms over them: Did they even have a chance to break the System… or did the System merely just trap them in an even deeper game?
