If it is not only for that unfortunate accident that led to his death. He was a man who could potentially change the world with his mind that still stores a plethora of ideas. But—fate had others plan with him. He found himself in another world, what’s more, it’s primitive and technologically backwards compared to his last world. And what’s more, he turned into his younger self, and in this world, he was an orphaned boy. For him to survive, he must use everything that he had at his disposal, and that was all in his head.

Embark on Arthur's journey, an adventure where casting aside one’s humanity becomes a path, not a barrier to untold power.

Ethan Cross was a politician serving as the Secretary of the Department of Energy in the United States of America. He was also an engineer and a scientist prior to his position, to which he was hailed as a “King of Technology” as he was able to invent revolutionary technologies one after the other. But his life was cut short when the vehicle he was in was rammed by a truck from the side, and immediately after, he awakened in the body of a royal prince, Bruno de Elysea, who was a complete opposite of Ethan in terms of knowledge and capability. One thing he noticed is that in this new world, everything was so backward. Technology and politics. He desired to change them but by doing so, caught the eyes of those who opposed it.

A Love That Began and Ended in a Look Emilia is a quiet, introspective college student who finds solace in her books, her garden, and the soothing melodies of Taylor Swift. Despite her calm and careful nature, she harbors a secret longing for something more—something she doesn’t fully understand. When she locks eyes with Aiden, a charismatic and confident classmate, something inside her stirs. It’s a fleeting moment, just a single glance across a crowded campus, yet it feels as if the universe has shifted. Though their brief interaction leaves a lasting impression on Emilia, Aiden seems to carry on with his life, unaffected by the connection she felt. Emilia becomes consumed by the thought of him, finding herself torn between the fear of rejection and the overwhelming pull she feels toward him. Determined to understand what happened between them, she embarks on a journey to uncover who he is, only to discover that he is as elusive as the emotions he stirs within her. As the story unfolds, Emilia and Aiden’s paths cross again, and they begin to connect over shared interests in books, music, and movies. Their bond deepens, and Emilia finds herself drawn to him in ways she can’t explain. Yet, despite the growing closeness, there remains an undeniable distance—an emotional barrier that neither seems able to cross. In a heart-wrenching twist, the love that started with a single look ends as quickly as it began. Aiden, who has always been emotionally distant, becomes more withdrawn, leaving Emilia to grapple with the painful realization that their connection was never meant to last. What began as an intense, unspoken bond fades into the background of their lives, leaving Emilia to wonder if the fleeting moment they shared was simply a figment of her imagination, a love that existed only in her heart. A Love That Began and Ended in a Look is a poignant exploration of unrequited love, the fragility of human connection, and the bittersweet nature of fleeting moments. It delves into the complexity of emotions that arise when one person sees something in another that the other cannot—or will not—acknowledge. Through Emilia’s journey, the novel asks the question: Can love truly begin with a single glance, and can it really end without ever being fully realized?

From fleeing for your safety and enrolling in a school filled with psychopaths… to being claimed by a deranged alpha prince? Yeah, you’re better off dead. • . • Jules’ life was picture perfect until his entire family got murdered all of a sudden, with him being the only survivor. A savior swooped In because he was still in immense danger, and that led to Jules taking on a new identity and becoming a completely different person overnight— and enrolling into Carnivals, a prestigious all-boys school for all supernatural beings. In Carnivals, monsters lurk the dark hallways and the strong preyed on the weak. You either become a predator or a prey… and from one look at Jules— a boy too pretty for his own good, with a slender and petite build, it was obvious that he was gonna be eaten alive by the predators. Here comes Blaze, a wolf who sends shivers down every predator’s spine in the school, an insanely hot Alpha who was as dangerous and deranged as the rumors claimed. He took one glance at Jules and decided there and then that Jules belonged to him. *** I inched backwards, eyes widening even more as my eyes zeroed in on the smirk tugging at the side of his lips. Blaze never smiled, and whenever he does, it never meant anything good. My heartbeat quickened as I scrambled backwards even more, breath stuttering to a stop as he began to narrow the distance between us. In no time, my back was plastered against the cold wall and that was when it hit me right in the chest that I was cornered and ensnared, like an actual prey… by none other than Blaze, when I had thought my life couldn’t get any worse. He towered over me effortlessly, emitting so much dominance and I had to tilt my head backwards for me to be able to meet his dark eyes, and my breath hitched when our eyes locked. He leaned down and my eyes snapped closed at once as I held my breath, waiting for him to strike. I’ve heard all the horrifying, endless rumors about him. He was an Alpha Prince whose presence someone like me should never be in. When I felt the tip of his cold nose glide over the length of my throat, my mouth fell open to release a startled gasp. He dragged in a long, audible breath and I felt a shiver rattle down my spine as I grew even stiffer, confusion clouding my mind. What was happening? Why was he doing this out of nowhere? Oh my gosh… he really was a deranged alpha like everyone says! *** THIS BOOK IS RATED 18+! It contains matured content such as: - Bullying. - Drug use. - Smut [a whole lot of it.] - Violence. - Harem [not between the main characters.] So… proceed with caution, you’ve been warned! *I don’t own the rights to the cover!

"I'll let my men fuck you before I drain every last drop of blood from your body, princess," I felt like my soul left my body hearing the vampire king's menacing voice. "I am the one who revived you, you should obey me," I countered even though my knees threatened to give away beneath me. "Obey?" His lips twisted into a cruel smile. "Maybe you are not understanding your situation, you were promised to me since birth but you filthy werewolves dared to betray us, now I'll show you what hell feels like," I staggered backwards as the realization hit me- I was now trapped in the hands of this red eyed beast.

"Let's go" Josiah said drawing circles on my shoulder and I followed him, my heart broken.
