At level 2, most people unlocked their first talent; those who didn’t were considered fortunate, as they had the potential to unlock rarer talents requiring higher levels. The world's most rare and powerful talents were revealed at level 5. But what if someone didn't obtain a talent? Luck quickly turned to misfortune as they were labeled talentless, with no hope of gaining a talent. Sol was one such person who was unable to unlock his talent, but he refused to give up. He persistently fought and trained every day, slowly increasing his level despite the disadvantage in skills. He held onto the hope that, one day, he would be bestowed with a talent like everyone else. As years passed, his determination began to wane until one fateful day. You have leveled up! +5 Free stats. Talent Unlocked - [Siphoner]! This event marked the beginning of his story. --- Cover art by Fireytika Things to expect: -Protagonist that grows not only in levels but as a person. -His main goal isn't power so don't expect him to rush to the peak. -Complicated characters and stories with mysteries that aren't quickly answered. A lot of things happen for a reason and come back later. -Earlier chapters have mistakes from me being a new author but quality greatly improves later on.

He tried to restrain himself, but his eyes started to shift from black to red and fangs started to appear on the side of his mouth. He groaned, trying to stop the animalistic gut inside of him. "I'll try to make it less painful." And then his mouth touched my neck. A moan escaped my lips as I felt his fangs digging deeper into my skin.

My whole body crashed on him as I felt weaker, his free arm supported me on the waist and carried my whole weight.

When Chase awakens, his daily life starts taking a new turn. He starts exacting revenge on everyone who has hurt him in the past but his new found powers aren't exactly ideal

Summer's life was suddenly uprooted with her dad's announcement that they were moving. Senior year in high school was not her ideal time to move. She'd spent all her life with the same kids, she had friends, she was comfortable and settled. She had even recently gotten her dream boyfriend and they were going to prom. Her dad's job was transferring him across the country to a snowy wasteland on the edge of civilization. The pay was apparently much better, but what's the point if she has to start all over? She didn't understand why her dad was so set on making them move. Summer was determined to hate her new home and everything about it, until she met Caspian Frost. Frost was the most beautiful man she'd ever seen. He was larger than life, he intimidated her, he was probably way out of her league, but there was a strange chemistry between them that she couldn't resist. At thirty-two, Caspian Frost was about to become the alpha of his Winter Clan and shortly afterward have his mate marking ceremony. He was a respected wolf shifter, a successful CEO, had a shifter that he was intending to mark, and this year his clan was hosting the Tetrad Ball and Scavenger Hunt. He didn't have time for a budding romance, especially not with some eighteen year old little wolf shifter who hadn't even had her first shift yet and certainly not one from the rival Summer Clan. Every shifter had three fated mate choices, but they usually didn't meet all of them in their lifetime, they would feel a connection to all three, but the strength of the pull was not the same. He'd heard stories about the pull between first fated mates, but he couldn't have imagined it'd be this powerful. He'd always assumed that he'd end up with his childhood friend Maura who was his third chance mate choice and the shifter he'd intended to mark during the ceremony. Not only did he meet his first chance mate, he was also her first chance mate. Although Summer's wolf hadn't appeared yet, he could sense her presence calling to him. Unfortunately, Summer wasn't even aware of her wolf's existence yet, or at least that's what everyone expected to show up. Although Frost was determined to avoid Summer, he couldn't stay away. Especially not when the Tetrad Ball approached, more of the rival clan members arrived, and mysterious deaths started occurring. It took all of Frost's determination to not bite Summer and claim her immediately when he saw her second and third chance mates sniffing around. He wanted to put his mark on her so badly he could barely think, but he wanted her to consciously choose him too. The trick would be to keep her safe and mark free until he managed to claim her for himself.

"As the king's words hung in the air, his bride-to-be seethed with discontent. 'You want me to surrender my freedom, my autonomy, my very self to you?' she spat, her silver hair flashing in the sunlight like a blade. Her green eyes blazed with defiance, the same eyes that had captivated him from the moment they met. He was taken aback by her ferocity, but his gaze never wavered. He was too consumed by his obsession, his need to claim her as his own. 'You are mine, now and forever,' he declared, his voice low and husky. 'Do not think of escaping, or worse, taking your own life. Death is no freedom from me, my love. I will follow you into the afterlife and claim you there, too.' Her eyes widened in horror, but he could see the spark of fascination, the thrill of being possessed by a power greater than herself. He knew she was torn, her desire for independence warring with her desire for him. And he knew he would win, in the end. For he was the king, and he always got what he wanted."
