We all know how it goes. The CEO falls for the 5'9, soft-spoken, brown-eyed girl with a smile untouched by the world. Love at first glance. A fairytale written in bold. Meanwhile, the woman who loved him first Who knew his silence, his shadows, his worst days is pushed aside. They call her jealous. Obsessive. A villain. And the story ends with applause for the innocent girl and the powerful man. A happy ending? You’re wrong. Kashi loved him first. She loved him loud, recklessly, with her whole soul. And then she arrived. Perfect smile. Soft voice. Brown eyes. The kind of girl the world bends for without asking why. He looked at her once and that was enough to erase years. Kashi didn’t lose him quietly. She lost him publicly. Humiliated. Replaced. Turned into a meme. A punchline. So she disappeared. For one year, Kashi buried herself. And while the world moved on, someone else was watching. Chaos. He watched from the shadows. obsessive, patient, dangerous in the way only quiet men are. She never noticed him. So he waited. Now Kashi is back. Not to beg. Not to compete. Not to play the villain in someone else’s love story. She’s back to rewrite the narrative. The CEO she loved since childhood doesn’t want her? Fuck him. The world laughed when she broke? Let it burn. And as Kashi rebuilds, stronger, colder, sharper. she starts to notice something strange. Who exactly is X? And why does he kneel like a loyal dog when she calls his name?

The first mistake humanity made was believing the apocalypse wanted them dead. It began everywhere at once. No prophecy. No chosen hero. No explanation. One moment, the world was ordinary. The next, impossible messages appeared across the sky, creatures that should not exist began appearing among the living, and humanity discovered that the rules it had lived by were no longer the only ones that mattered. At first, people thought the world was ending. They were wrong. An end would have been simpler. Kael was only a student when it began. He had no weapon. No class. No plan. Nothing that should have made him special. And nothing that should have allowed him to survive what came next. But he did. Barely. What begins as a desperate struggle to stay alive soon reveals something far larger. The world is changing. So are the people inside it. Levels can be gained. Strength can be earned. Bodies can become capable of things that should have been impossible. And humanity has been given something strangely close to a chance. That may be the most frightening part. Because every new rule raises another question. Why give people the means to grow stronger in a world designed to kill them? Why reward survival? Why allow humanity to adapt at all? And if this is only the first Cycle... what exactly are they being prepared for? Kael has no answers. Neither does anyone else. For now, surviving the next hour is difficult enough. But hour by hour, level by level, the old world is becoming something humanity may no longer recognize. Some people will adapt. Some will break. Some will become something else entirely. And sooner or later, humanity will have to confront a possibility far more unsettling than the end of the world. Perhaps this was never an apocalypse. Perhaps it was a beginning. And whatever started it... may have never wanted them dead at all.

Time, Tarzan, & Terrible Ideas is a sci-fi comedy action-adventure mystery thriller that begins with a terrible... but groundbreaking... mistake. Dr. Milo Finch, a brilliant, anxious young scientist with more intelligence than common sense, successfully invents a time machine. During what is supposed to be a short, observational test run, Milo is violently thrown into the distant past and crash-lands in the heart of an untouched jungle. There, Milo makes an impossible discovery: he has landed in the era... and the world... of Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle. Far from a myth, Tarzan is intelligent, perceptive, and deeply connected to the natural world. Milo’s arrival immediately disrupts the balance of the jungle. His futuristic technology destabilizes time itself, attracting armed hunters and anachronistic forces that should not exist in this era. As Milo struggles to reconcile scientific logic with the terrifying reality that he may have broken history, Tarzan recognizes the danger Milo represents... and the necessity of his survival. The unlikely duo forms an uneasy alliance: Milo brings chaotic future knowledge, comic book references, and reckless innovation; Tarzan brings unmatched physical skill, strategic instincts, and the jungle itself as a weapon. Together, they uncover a growing mystery: someone else has learned to exploit time travel, using the past as a battlefield and resource. What begins as a survival story quickly escalates into a hidden time war, with Tarzan’s jungle as ground zero. As paradoxes multiply and reality begins to fracture, Milo must find a way to repair time before it corrects itself violently... by erasing everything in its path. Blending sharp comedy, high-energy action, and escalating thriller elements, Time, Tarzan, & Terrible Ideas reimagines a classic legend through the lens of modern sci-fi, exploring destiny, responsibility, and the consequences of asking “what if” one time too many.

In a realm where summer arrives with heat and departs in cold, purple wisps drift through the air. Lords and ladies from the Twelve Cities gather to bow before their monarchs, while above them lingers the long-lost Grace of the Purple and aether laughs long. Yet the rulers who proclaim themselves righteous do not care for every city equally. Lineage City is a land of fog, poverty, and cutthroats—where cats speak, the tarnished are despised, and ordinary people live as little more than slaves beneath the conflicts of their masters. Among them is Grey Nirmala: a golden-eyed boy cursed by misfortune, hating the monarchs in a realm where such hatred is treason. Beside him stands Raya, led by curiosity and a craving for liberty, and Klein, a good-hearted boy who sees the flames waiting to devour everything—while carrying a shine of his own. But as conflict rises across five worlds, the unknown begins to stare back through the Chasm. Fate hates what it has become. And someplace beyond their sight, an Organizer mourns over.

When a devoted fan of A Song of Ice and Fire opened his eyes, he found himself standing in Westeros. Not as a king. Not as a lord. He became Suleiman, a nameless minor knight under the impoverished Daddings family, living by the muddy lower reaches of the Green Fork in the Riverlands. No gold. No soldiers. No influence. The family ruled over barely fifty peasants and held a status so low they were nothing more than silent figures in the corners of noble banquets. Before him stood the crushing weight of eight thousand years of aristocratic hierarchy. Yet in a land torn by war and shifting tides, this outsider from another world began his climb. From the mockery of “Sir Stinky Castle” on the edge of a swamp… to the throne of the Trident itself. In Westeros, even the smallest pawn can become a king. --------------------------- Join my Patreon now to get instant access to the next chapters!

Welcome to a world where love is poison, family is a cult, and death is far from the worst ending. My name is Dea Evans. This is the story of the person who meant everything to me—my brother, Ray. It all began long before I was born, when he met a girl named Lily. Ray wasn't your typical hero: overweight, sick, with a black eye and a broken destiny.

However, the world is cruel. Especially to those who dare to be happy. This story is about how something new rises from the ashes of tragedy. About how wounded souls find each other.
