A Christmas Story

It hurts, my hole body, my head. My hand went to my throat, there too equally hurt as much. And next came my air… it went fast, faster than I could even imagine, my lungs felt out of air, and it was only a matter of time, did I process to breath in. My awaken had been so peaceful I forgot to breath… My awaken? I looked up, and saw I had fallen right in front of a mirror, my hair covering my pained and distressed face, my heart pounding like before, and my hands digging into the carpet to my group. What happened? What happened? What happened? Nabie Reigns?! The door knob twisted, an old looking lady walking in, and her face hold the same distress mine did. Mother… “Nabie dear… your late for school.”

Yet with the media circling, jealous exes scheming, and secrets threatening to surface, the line between make-believe and reality blurs. Will Lauren and Alexandro’s arrangement unravel under the pressure—or could it be the start of something neither of them expected? **Fake it until you feel it, or risk losing it all.*

If Genesis King could describe her life in one word, it would be boring. Cursed by her relatively stable life and living condition, she's forced to live every day in a flavorless monotony. Since she was able to think, she's been wishing for more. More power, more magic, something more fun than her repetitive every life. Thankfully, on the fateful afternoon that was soon dubbed 'The Day of Rebirth', her wishes were granted, with dire consequences. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: This is a LitRPG story, meaning it will have a system, stats, numbers, levels, etc. that mean things. HOWEVER, this is my first real forte into the 'LitRPG' / 'System' genre of novel, so it'll most likely be used as an accent to the story, not the main focus. (This is also my return to writing so forgive me as I get back into the swing of things. This novel and my other one will be written/published in parallel.) Publishing on RR and SH.

Ariana had been struggling with her smut novel lately. Her readers had found out her weakness- that she was a virgin with no experience in dating. To overcome her struggle and gain inspiration, she decided to rent a 'little white face' to 'experiment' and study a man's anatomy and physiological reactions. But there was a mistake halfway. She ended up meeting an 'impotent' man who had similar struggles as her, instead of a sultry little white face. **** Cale's body was numbed. He could not lift a finger, but he felt hot all over. The body part that could not rise even in front of a seductive woman was standing little by little. The woman who 'drugged' him approached him with a whip in her hand. She wore a very conservative outfit and looked like she was attending a funeral. Her small face was covered with a veiled black hat. "As I requested, we will perform a BDSM play. It will hurt a bit. I am still inexperienced, but I will provide enough compensation after this task." Cale: "....?" What request? He had never received a request! Ariana could see the horror in Cale's eyes. She tilted her head in wonder. Mr. Flowerboy had previously claimed in the chat he liked BDSM play. Had he entered his role immediately? Amazing. As expected of a pro. Ariana tried to make her expression seem like a dominant master to match Mr. Flowerboy's professionalism. She had to show him that she was serious about it too. "Let's start, Mr. Flowerboy." Cale: !!! Who was the flowerboy?! I am not him! ..... A few weeks later. Instead of reporting the woman who 'drugged' him to the police, Cale shamefully looked for her again for a second session. Ariana: "Why do you want to be tied up and spanked again? Could it be... you are really a masochist?" Cale: ".....I have no choice either." How could he explain that his 'thing' would only work when this woman touched him?

Having been reborn as a Greater Succubus, Lilith finally embarks on her adventure outside of her Village. With her childhood friends (minions) by her side, she aims to lead a life free from responsibilities and expectations. Having suffered as a Hero in her previous life, Lilith wants no part of the spotlight and is very content in accumulating her strength while behaving like a pure healer to everybody watching. Would the World Admins force her into another struggle against the new Demon Lord, or would Lilith just shrug it all away as she focuses on enjoying her own sexcapades? Follow Lilith as she adventures around the world, seeking fun and pleasures that she rarely got to experience in her first life. ... This story is a Fan continuation of a series 'A Hero turned Succubus Tale' and is in no way intented to disrespect or damage the Author's original work. While hoping for the Author to be well and healthy, while also hoping that they start to publish the story again, this series hopes to expand on the story and to cure the bout of disappointment that remained within me due to the hiatus. This story will have lots of sex, but some plot as well, so it would be a mixed bag of those things. With Lilith being a Succubus, the mature content is inevitable here, right? And, just as said by the Author 'The_World_Tree1048' before, I too admire the popular works like 'Tales of a Seductress', 'A Goblin's evolution' and a few other unnamed novels. Really great inspirations to make you feel like typing something out as well. ... I really hope to see the story till the end, but real life often hampers in between. If you guys can, please support the Fan continuation to help me keep my motivation level up, and to let me know if what I am doing is actually worth the time or not through the novel specific tier ('Tier a' possibly?) Writing Fan continuations for hiatus novels became a hobby of mine before I knew it, and I hope to continue it too! What would I do with the fundings? Well, I need to take some costly skill courses to supplement my ongoing graduation degree and to earn some big bucks in the real life too! Help me out here guys!! patr.eon.com/ImmortalGod (Remove the dot after patr) . .. ... *Cough!* S-Sorry about that... it just came out that way. Ahem... The novels I choose depends on my own preferences (Slice of life, Romance, Smut, Slow life, Comedy, Childcare, Family, etc.), while I defintely hope not to encounter a select few ones (Horror, Propaganda/Political, Ntr, some Martial Arts ones?). However, you could commission your own desired hiatus novel too. 'Tier d' of my Patreon page is specifically for Fan commissions and as long as the work stays commissioned, the releases never halt, planned to be weekly releases directly published on public platforms like ScribbleHub, WebNovel or Wattpad. Please note that there is a limit to my ability and time and I could only possibly have 5 novels Fan commissioned concurrently, other than my own picks from Tiers a, b or c. For any further than that, I would have to note them on the waiting list. The chosen Fan commissions would be mentioned on the Tier d listing, and if there are any spots open, they would be reflected there as well.

In the 31st century lies a war, a galactic hundred-year war. The Quadarium Sector, under the I.F.Q.S. (Interplanetary Federation of the Quadarium Sector), had invaded the Alarion Sector, under the A.U.N. (Alaric United Nations), after being mutually allied and being neighbouring sectors, they had turned to completely hate one another, after aggravated attacks, controversies, and backlashes from the public causing conflict, and for as long as the inter-sector war lasted, they would continue to hate, kill, and die—a never-ending anguish. Ever since the QDNP (Quadaric Democratic Nationalists Party) won the Quadaric Sector-Wide Elections of 2994, everything had gone downhill. Perhaps things could've gone differently if the QISP (Quadaric International Socialists Party) had won, though it would be treasonous and un-citizen-;ike to think and to assume such a thing. You wouldn't want to be a dissident, would you? Or else, one would have to be sent to the Mental Purification Room. Or maybe even worse, the Thought Extraction Chambers?

How the world's insanity can cost you.
