Playing With Fire Hunger Games

What would you do if the only man you ever loved— the one who broke your heart was also your only chance to rebuild your life? Lanxie Amani Gonzales was a sensation. The bar exam topnotcher who smashed records with a brilliance that captivated the nation. Fame embraced her, fed her ambition, and promised her everything. But fame is a cruel, fleeting god. And when it abandons you, it leaves nothing but ashes. Now, Lanxie is a forgotten name. No clients. No allies. Her once-glorious career reduced to a suffocating silence drowned by whispers of arrogance and irrelevance. But the hunger to rise from the wreckage burns hotter than ever. Then he returns. Xander Dakarai Zamora. The nation’s most powerful celebrity— untouchable, adored, a king of the silver screen. Until a scandal erupts. His love team partner accuses him of unforgivable crime, and the world turns against him. His empire crumbles with brutal speed. And in his darkest hour, he seeks her— the lawyer the world discarded. Lanxie once harbored a hopeless, secret love for Dakarai. She buried it deep, believing she had moved on. But his presence awakens emotions she swore she’d forgotten. Accepting his case could redeem her or destroy her. But refusing him means surrendering to failure forever. Thrust into a ruthless world of lies, betrayal, and shattered reputations, Lanxie fights to unearth the truth. But Dakarai’s gaze burns through her defenses— bold, desperate, and intoxicating. “Win me, Attorney.”

**Hey...have you ever dreamed of playing against aliens...? that might never happen, but in here, it did.** After securing their third consecutive Champions League title, Krystal FC—the most dominant football team in Europe—boards their flight home, ready to celebrate their triumph. But tragedy strikes. Their plane crashes and not even a trace is found, it vanishes without a trace, leaving the world to assume they are lost forever. However, the players and their coach awaken in a strange world, one unlike anything they’ve ever seen. Very strange and with a blue sun, it only had one thing in common with earth --Football. it was a planet where football is not just a sport—it is sacred, the ultimate measure of power and dominance. Here, the greatest teams from across the galaxy battle not just for glory but for control, and Krystal FC soon discovers a terrifying truth: this alien world is planning a full-scale invasion of Earth. Stranded with no way to return, no way to warn their people, their only hope lies in a legendary event—the Intergalactic Football Tournament. The rules are simple: the winning team is granted a single, absolute wish, one so powerful that no force in the universe can deny it. For Krystal FC, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Victory means saving their home. Defeat means the fall of Earth. Outmatched by teams with superhuman abilities, technology beyond comprehension, and an unforgiving new style of play, Krystal FC must push beyond their limits, evolve their game, and prove that human willpower and skill can stand against the best the galaxy has to offer. This isn’t just football anymore. This is war. And Krystal FC must become champions of the stars… or die trying. Either ways... it's death.

DESTINY GAMES. It has been 85 years since Earth-11 became aligned with Yggdrasil and 73 years since Icon became the first demigod from Earth. Icon, as the first demigod, was privileged to weave the thread of fate for everyone. He was supposed to cut off Yggdrasil and free Earth-11 from the grasps of the other Earths and their god kings. That's why everyone helped him climb the tower of Destiny. But instead of ridding earth of Yggdrasil, he turned the destiny of mankind into seven rings of immortality.  The first ring was for the immortality of power. The second was for the immortality of the knowledge. The third, fourth, fifth, and sixth were for the immortality of the mind, energy, body, and soul. The last ring, the ring of the paragon, was made to rule them all.  Icon kept the ring of the paragon for himself and became a dictator. He ruled with an iron fist for many years. His was a reign of terror. But he was eventually vanquished by the collective effort of the world.  It has been 62 years since then. Icon is no more, but the damage he had done still remains. Earth-11 is still connected to Yggdrasil. The deadly games of the Tower of Destiny still remain, and the fight for the seven rings of immortality still continues.  Kelvin Thorn has just awakened his ability. It came at a good time too since he is running for his life. The ability he awakened saved him, but it came with a cost. He must climb the tower of destiny under the witness of the whole world and accumulate destiny, or he will die.  His situation is not unique. Everyone that awakens, which is mostly everyone, must climb the tower of destiny. It is one of the curses that Icon left behind before he died. But Thorn is different because the seventh ring found him.  The tower of destiny is where everyone granted power by destiny, be they humans, non-humans, or otherworlders, must fight in games of might, skill, and knowledge to gather the power of destiny. They will either die or eventually overcome death. Kelvin will be one of the latest in the line of billions of others in this struggle. DISCORD: https://discord.com/invite/Ku2gqaHz

In a world where death is entertainment and survival is temporary, can a cursed child defy fate and escape the hands of darkness?

[This book is complete] Everyone is playing a regal game. Everyone except Lucia (who probably should). After her father faced accusations of trying to seize the throne from his father and king, he was exiled along with his family. They were no longer royalty, but his wife would not have it. She was friends with the queen of Vershia and used that to her advantage. Her two older daughters were the right age to marry the two princes, and she would make that happen come what may. That became a problem when the oldest daughter was ignored by the crown prince, who formed a friendship with the youngest of the girls. There was still hope; Lucia could become the future queen. But Lucia was not groomed for this role. She did not want to live for the type of marriage she could snag. She did not want to take the man who had been planned for her sister. But that’s the thing with plans, isn’t it? She never planned to fall in love with the man, and there she was: an unwilling participant in the regal games. Would she capture the crown? How would everything affect her relationship with her sister? Was there ever pleasing her mother? [WSA 2024 Entry]

Waking up in a hospital with a broken leg and a splitting headache was bad enough. But being trapped there as the world collapsed? That was something else. It started small. A patient down the hall coughing—a wet, ragged sound that never seemed to stop. Then the whispers between nurses, the frantic pages over the intercom. By the time the first screams echoed through the corridors, it was already too late. The infection didn’t start today. It had been building, spreading, hiding in plain sight. We just didn’t see it—until the doors burst open and the blood began to flow. I was awake for all of it. I heard the gurgled cries of those who couldn’t run. The ones who tried to fight. The ones who turned. I smelled the decay before the bodies even cooled. And when the world outside finally went quiet—when the sirens faded and the streets emptied—it felt like nothing was left. But survival isn’t just about escaping. It’s about something more. I don’t believe the world ends just because the rules change. I don’t believe we’re meant to scatter and die alone. Because even now, in the ruins of everything we built, there are still people out there fighting, surviving, searching. And as long as we remember that, we have something left to fight for.
