Stiles Jackson Derek

On the day of her wedding in the 11th century, Princess Elysia's world shatters. Her family is slaughtered, her marriage left incomplete, and a hidden power she never knew she possessed is unleashed—teleporting her 1,000 years into the future. Now stranded in the 21st century, Elysia must navigate a world of towering skyscrapers and dangerous shadows. Hunted by mysterious enemies, she has no idea why they want her dead. Her only constant is the strange red thread connecting her to Derek Park—a ruthless businessman with a dark reputation. Their encounters are electric, charged with tension and unspoken emotions. Each time Elysia is teleported to Derek’s side, she’s met with his cold fury and magnetic pull. As danger closes in, their connection deepens, revealing secrets that could unravel both their pasts and futures. Elysia is determined to uncover the truth: - Why was she transported through time? - What does the red thread binding her to Derek truly mean? - And can she save both herself and the man who may hold the key to her destiny? In a race against time, Elysia and Derek must confront their entwined fates, face an ancient enemy, and uncover the truth about their timeless bond. "Through Time and Space: Entangled by the Red Thread" is a story of love, loss, and courage—a tale where time itself bends for two souls destined to defy fate. -------------- Excerpt In the dim light of the bathroom, Derek’s fury boils over as he grabs Elysia by the neck, his voice a low growl. “Who are you?” Her emerald green eyes meet his dark, unrelenting gaze, and for a moment, the world seems to stop. ------ Years later She blinks in shock, suddenly finding herself teleported and straddling his lap. Her voice trembles, “W-What? How… did I end up here?” She curses inwardly. Great. Just great. Damn my powers. Derek’s devilish smile sends a shiver down her spine. “Hi, baby,” his hands lingering on her waist. She tries to pull away, cheeks flushing. “Uh…bye, baby. Wrong place. Really wrong place.” No, sweetheart," Derek's tone shifts, low and sultry. "You’re exactly where you belong. I’ve missed you." Elysia’s whisper, "I didn’t… uh, I mean… hmm." Derek leans in, his lips brushing against her ear, his breath warm against her skin. "Don’t worry, love. I’ll make sure you miss me." His lips claim hers in a kiss that burns with intense desire.

(TLDR at the bottom) Jackson, a regular high school student, is tragically caught in the crossfire of a gunfight on his way to school and dies from his injuries in the hospital. When Jackson opens his eyes, he finds himself in an endless, grand library. After wandering the library, Jackson meets a man who introduces himself as Brakos, the primordial spirit of time, stories, and knowledge. Brakos explains that the multiverse is real, and he enjoys watching people use their imagination to create stories and embark on grand adventures. Brakos saw great potential in Jackson and was excited, but saddened when Jackson was shot. He made arrangements for Jackson's soul to enter the library after his death. Still processing everything, Jackson asks Brakos, "What is going to happen to me now?" Brakos replies “Well that's up to you Jackson, I am offering you the chance to become an Isekai character in any world of your choosing.” Jackson is shocked by Brakos's offer and takes a moment to process everything, while Brakos patiently smiles at him. “Jackson suddenly says, "Okay, but I have a few questions first." Brakos smiles and agrees to answer Jackson's questions, and for a while, Jackson asks one question after another, with Brakos responding to each. After hours of questioning, Jackson takes some time to think and then says something that surprises Brakos. Jackson requests to be reincarnated in a magical world with three powers: the ability to summon spirits and form contracts with them, the ability to use special abilities contained in books we create together and to be reborn as a Primogenitor—a being capable of creating and leading a new race. Brakos stands speechless, wide-eyed, making sure he heard Jackson's request correctly. Brakos looks at Jackson, smiling to himself, thinking that he may have found someone capable of surpassing his expectations. Brakos laughs and agrees to fulfill Jackson's wish, but warns him that becoming a Primogenitor in that world is dangerous. The race he creates will depend on his actions, and other Primogenitors may try to kill him and claim his creation. Jackson smiles, assuring Brakos that he has a plan to create his race and protect himself. As he explains his strategy, Brakos is amazed by the creativity and ingenuity of Jackson's ideas. Brakos asks, "I understand, but I have one question: What will you name the race you create?" Jackson smiles and declares, "This race shall be known as the Draconians." _____________ TLDR Jackson is a person that reincarnates into another world as a primogenitor (they are creators/first of a race like Adam and Eve are the first humans in the bible) and brings forth a new race called the Draconians. A special type of dragon. To create this race he gains a special book that can alter reality and allow him to change parts of his race. To most, it will look like he is taking notes about an existing race but in reality, he is changing the race itself. Follow Jack as he learns about the world he lives in now as he goes to a magic school, gains the powers of spirits and even becomes the creator of a brand new race that can fight against the gods themselves. _____________ Not a harem or romance novel. Will be a BL eventually but will not be the focus of the story. Just want to build up the world right now. I'm not an experienced writer, this is my first time writing something longer than a 3-page story from high school. Please excuse any mistakes or spelling errors, and feel free to correct me in the comments. I’d really appreciate any feedback on how the story is going. Also, I might take a few days' breaks now and then due to work or personal reasons, so if a new chapter doesn't come out for a few days, don't worry! _____________ The story updates every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at 8:15 AM (GMT-5)

My gaze fell on a slender mortal girl with short dark hair and glowing brown eyes. She looked like she was about to cry, and soon enough, she began sobbing.

I felt a warm liquid on my cheeks—tears. I realized I was crying. “Please, big brother, let’s go home,”
