A life of luxury, indulgence, and effortless privilege shatters in a single evening when a sharp, brutal truth cuts through the golden facade. A young heir, drowning in his own mediocrity, faces the unthinkable—rejection from the one person he thought he could hold onto. Stripped of his comfort and adoration, he spirals into the darkest corners of his mind, where despair wrestles with a strange, burning determination. Haunted by the weight of his past and driven by an almost self-destructive hunger for transformation, he abandons the empire he was born to inherit and vanishes into a world that forces him to confront the man he has become. There, among unfamiliar faces and grueling struggles, he begins to rebuild himself, reshaping every flaw and failure into an arsenal of precision and control. But the past has a way of finding you, no matter how far you run. When duty drags him back to the family and the life he swore to leave behind, he must navigate a labyrinth of old wounds, cold betrayals, and a love that feels more like a curse. In the relentless pursuit of redemption—or revenge—he discovers that some chains are impossible to break, and the price of reinvention is far steeper than he ever imagined. This is a story about power, obsession, and the unyielding pull of a man’s desire to escape himself. Or perhaps, to destroy himself in the process. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

When Elora loses her family at a tender age, she is sold into slavery, her true heritage forgotten. Bound in chains, she is thrust into a cruel world of auctions and buyers, her memories buried deep within her. But fate takes a turn when a mysterious figure—clad in a dark hood—buys her freedom for a price few are willing to pay. Taken to a small, hidden cottage on the outskirts of a bustling market, Elora finds refuge in the home of a skilled herbalist, a woman whose knowledge of plants and healing runs as deep as the scars hidden beneath Elora’s skin. While the herbalist tends to her body, the silent bond between them begins to form, offering Elora the first glimmer of hope in years. Yet, questions about her past continue to haunt her. As Elora’s physical wounds heal, secrets unravel—secrets that will reveal her bloodline, the true identity of the man who saved her, and the path to her destiny.

When they tell you that history repeats itself, you should at least expect some details to change. But no, in our case, things went exactly as they did the first time: a crack in the sky, a couple of monsters a bit taller than usual, and a myriad of people who, for some reason, were surprised. Because who, honestly, wouldn't have bet on a good demon invasion every few hundred years? Although, to be fair, this time the causes are much clearer. Man always finds new ways to destroy himself. If the first time the solution came in the form of a shy librarian who unknowingly found the key to stopping the end of the world, this time it came in the form of a weak and hungry boy, who would have preferred to destroy it rather than save it. Let me ask you a question: who said that magic was reserved for muscular and dramatic warriors? No, my friends, true salvation, this time, doesn't come from paper, scrolls, and the patience of a genius, but from hunger, fear, and the will not to give up on your fate.

In a world where trust is a luxury and love feels like a betrayal, will they survive each other—or will their enemies be the least of their problems? This is a post apocalypse lesbian love story. *Updates daily* I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com

"I never knew you were such a cowardly man," she began, her tone sharp and biting, her chin raised in defiance. "Too weak to break the news to me yourself. How pathetic." "It isn't like that," Ezekiel protested, stepping closer. "I have my reasons." "Reasons?" she snapped, pulling her hands away as he tried to hold them. Her glare hardened, a look of disgust flashing across her face. "My lady," he began, his voice thick with longing as his green eyes searched hers for any trace of understanding. Tentatively, he lifted a hand toward her face, only to let it fall back to his side. "I thought you, of all people, would understand me. Hear me out. This is what is expected of me—what I must do to secure my title. I—" "How is that any of my concern?" she interrupted, her voice like a whip, cold and unforgiving. "Do you expect me to be swayed by your empty words? Your honeyed excuses? I won't be moved by this pathetic display." "Can you just listen to me?" he snapped, his voice hardening in frustration. "Listen to what?" she shot back, venom dripping from her tone. "Your pathetic moaning and excuses? You've made a mockery of me, Ezekiel. You humiliated me—used me as nothing more than a bauble to decorate your arm before discarding me like trash. You are pathetic." "Eris," he growled, his once affectionate green eyes now shadowed with an eerie red. "I am still Duke Loxley, and I will not tolerate this tone from you. Know your place." She flinched at the harshness of his words but held her ground. "Sienna is a necessity," he continued, stepping closer to her. "I have to marry her to secure my title, but my affection—my care—it remains with you. I love you, Eris." The confession hung heavily in the air, but she did not falter. Instead, she took a deliberate step back, curtsying with practiced grace. "Apologies, Your Grace," she said, her voice detached and cold. "This mere human seems to have forgotten her place and overstepped. I will ensure it never happens again." "Eris..." He reached for her, desperation seeping into his voice, but she pulled away, her movements deliberate and precise. "Please excuse me. I will be taking my leave," she said, turning on her heel and walking away without a second glance.

The Kings and Queens have their own dragons to overcome, but what would they do if they reencounter one after the last 500 years? Many Years After the 500-year war, five houses have risen, filling the land of Eldevier rich with resources, and ever since the dragons had died out, the never-ending conflict between the two houses is going to spark a war.

"In a world divided into five continental countries, with the middle continent serving as a volatile buffer zone, tyranny reigns supreme in the southern continents, each governed by a ruthless monarch. The most dominant force in this oppressive empire is the Church of the Sun, where the Pope holds the highest authority, serving as both religious leader and king. The Church's power is further bolstered by the 12 Paladins and 24 Reverend Fathers, backed by an army of clergy soldiers. The catalyst for this tale is the infamous 'Day of Unity,' an event that transpired roughly 50-55 years ago. On this day, nations from across the continents gathered for diplomatic relations, only to face a treacherous assault by the Pope and his ruthless army. In a shocking turn of events, the Pope's forces attacked all attending nations, seizing their lands, and compelling the surviving members of royal families and their people to pledge loyalty to the oppressive empire. Yet, the kingdom of Valkenburg, renowned for its advanced military and impenetrable defenses, remained untouched, as their wise king sent only an emissary to the event. In this world, the mystical power of 'wave energy' flows through the veins of every individual, with each person born possessing a unique affinity. With rigorous training, they can harness multiple affinities. But there's more to this universe than meets the eye. Rift Gates scattered throughout Earth lead to other realms. These gates are largely controlled by the imperial army, except for those hidden in free territories or the untamed eastern regions. The alternate realms include 'The Realm of Disorder,' 'The Shadowlands,' 'The Land of the Fel' (comprising seven colossal circles, each the size of a solar system), 'Wonderland' (a heavenly realm with light-type beings and five expansive circles, symbolized as 'the five circles of the rainbow'), and 'Verdana.' At the pinnacle of this intricate universe stands the Titanomachy, god-like beings who rule over these realms and influence magic on the mortal plane. They are the architects of this fantastical world, each possessing unrivaled power and purpose. Amidst this intricate tapestry of realms, magic, and political intrigue, 'The Knight of Roses' embarks on a journey filled with danger, discovery, and destiny. The Main Character, Arryn of Asa, a battle-worn mercenary with a shadowy past, will navigate the tumultuous landscapes, confront the horrors lurking in the cursed forests, and delve into the mysteries of the dark lord and his connection to the shadowy figure. As the story unfolds, the MC will find themselves at the center of a brewing conflict, where loyalties will be tested, alliances forged, and the fate of nations hanging in the balance." written by yodyo10/pendragondyo

Ashes Reborn For five years, I was a ghost, condemned to the shadows by the people I trusted most. My brother, Murat, framed me for a crime I didn’t commit, stealing my freedom and my legacy. My wife, Leyla, abandoned me, choosing to believe his lies and sealing our bond with betrayal when she married him. They destroyed me, but they underestimated my resolve. In the depths of that prison, I was reborn. Iskender Yilmaz ceased to exist, replaced by Ali Demir—a man of wealth, power, and relentless determination. With a new face, a new name, and a heart hardened by betrayal, I returned to Istanbul, no longer the man they knew, but the reckoning they deserved. I infiltrated their lives as Ali, weaving myself into the cracks of their perfect facade. Murat, so blinded by his own arrogance, never saw his empire crumbling beneath him. Leyla, torn between the life she built on lies and the truth she could no longer deny, found solace in the stranger I had become. But vengeance is not without its cost. As I dismantled Murat's world piece by piece, I was forced to confront my own pain, my love for a woman who betrayed me, and the man I had become in my pursuit of justice. Ashes Reborn is my story—a tale of betrayal and vengeance, yes, but also of redemption. It is a testament to the fire within us all, the one that destroys but also rebuilds. I am Ali Demir, and this is how I rose from the ashes.

In the heart of the empire, House Velcraven stood as a legend of power, feared for their dark blood magic and ruthless might. Their name was synonymous with strength, their red eyes a mark of nobility, and their rituals a gateway to unearthly force. At the center of their bloodline was Katherine, the youngest heir, born under a prophecy that declared her the future of her house. Her birth was marked by tragedy: her mother perished in childbirth, a sign of strength according to Velcraven tradition, for to kill in birth was to claim dominion. Yet this triumph was short-lived. When Katherine completed her Rite of Passage—drinking the blood of her ancestors—she gained the power of twenty men, but at a price: her very life would now depend on the blood she drained from others. No longer could she live in peace; she must feed or succumb to death. But the day of her ascension brought more than just power. She began seeing visions—cryptic whispers from the past, a woman shrouded in shadows, who seemed to be her long-dead ancestor. The woman shows her a vision of destruction, and of a war that would tear her house apart. Before Katherine could warn her family, the great houses of the empire, in league with the emperor himself, set their treacherous scheme in motion. Stormhold, the Velcraven ancestral castle, was engulfed in flames. Her father, seeing her gift as a sign of ancient power, managed to send Katherine away in secret, safeguarding the last hope of the Velcraven bloodline. But her family stayed behind to face the slaughter, their names lost to the ravages of war. Alone in a foreign land, Katherine must learn to survive, to feed, and to rebuild her house to its former glory. The blood of her ancestors courses through her veins, guiding her path as she seeks vengeance against the cowardly houses that betrayed her—and the emperor who plotted her house’s downfall. With visions haunting her every step and the weight of her lineage upon her shoulders, Katherine will carve her way through a world that knows nothing of House Velcraven and everything of its wrath.

It’s 2068, and the world is broken. Forty-three years ago, a virus called A-21 swept through, killing half the human race. The world came together to fight it, creating a vaccine that wiped it out. But here's the catch—some of us survived... with powers. Sounds amazing, right? Too bad the world sees us as monsters. After World War 3, four zones were born: Zone 69 (US), Zone 77 (Russia), Zone 88 (China), and Zone 99 (Africa), ruled by powerful families. Peace lasted only a moment before the hunt began. The "Awakened"—that's us—are feared, hunted, and locked out. They built walls to separate us, but we could tear them down if we wanted. We’re not the enemy. But they’ll never see that. And as long as they keep us trapped, we’ll keep fighting.
