New Cycle

The first mistake humanity made was believing the apocalypse wanted them dead. Things to expect : [+] a slow-burn survival horror LitRPG [+] a character-focused story about survival [+] weak-to-strong progression [+] dangerous monsters, body horror [+] a world that expands slowly *** It began everywhere at once. No prophecy. No chosen hero. No explanation. One moment, the world was still pretending to be ordinary. The next, impossible messages appeared across the sky, animals began to fall from the rain, and people learned that the old rules had stopped protecting them. At first, humanity thought it was witnessing the end. It was wrong. An end would have been simpler. Kael was only a student when the first cycle began. He had no weapon, no class, no plan, and nothing that should have made him survive the first hours of the collapse. But he did. Not cleanly. Not safely. Not without consequence. Now, with a handful of survivors and a body that refuses to forget what happened to it, Kael must move through a world where every answer comes too late, every reward leaves a mark, and death is no longer the only thing to fear. Some people will adapt. Some will break. Some will become something else entirely. The first cycle has begun. And survival was never meant to leave anyone untouched. *** Things to not expect : [-] an overpowered main character from the start [-] clean power fantasy or consequence-free leveling [-] monsters that exist only as experience points [-] instant answers to every mystery [-] harem, comedy-focused progression, or a lighthearted apocalypse Content notes : [!] gore and body horror [!] trauma, injury, panic, and death [!] psychological pressure and survival horror elements [!] profanity in moments of fear, pain, or conflict Chapters are edited before release. Updates are posted as regularly as possible while keeping the story clean and consistent.

The Devil's obsession with the Heiress

[Warning: Mature content | Dark romance] Aliana Vanderbilt is the witty, fierce heiress to a multi-billion-dollar empire. She always lived life on her own terms, until one fateful night changed everything. After a brutal accident involving a "lost child" that only she could see, Aliana woke to a terrifying new reality. By day, she is haunted by restless spirits. By night, she is consumed by vivid, steamy dreams of a mysterious man with icy blue eyes. Her search for a solution comes to an abrupt halt when she finally comes face-to-face with Gavriel Valentine. An enigmatic man sitting at the pinnacle of a rival business empire. He is dominating, dangerous, and everything Aliana should avoid. Yet, he alone possesses the power to end her misery. Whenever she is near him, the ghosts vanish. Driven by a desperate need for peace, Aliana bulldozes into Gavriel’s life with a scandalous demand. However, what she does not expect is his counter-offer… that she must marry him. What happens when two strong-headed personalities are tied together in a sacred union? Will they find peace, or will it spell disaster? ..... Excerpt: “I warned you, didn’t I, Aliana?” His deep, masculine voice reverberated through the air like silk. Her name rolled off his sinful lips so seductively that it made her want to roll her eyes in reluctant delight. That thought alone made her brows knit in confusion until she heard him continue, “You step into my world, and I will ruin you in ways you never imagined.” Aliana shivered, not only at the warning he had given her far too many times, but also at the way his icy blue eyes pierced her so intensely that it felt as though she might burn and freeze all at once. Ignoring her thrumming heartbeat, she drew in a sharp breath and replied, “You did… but didn’t I say there is nothing I love more than a challenge? If you’re going to ruin me, Gavriel, at least make sure you’re the only one left standing when the dust settles.” His eyes widened ever so slightly before he rose from his armchair and padded across the carpet to stand right before her. The moment his fingers lifted to touch her chin, a jolt of electricity shot down her spine as he leaned in and said, “You want to play a dangerous game, Aliana…. and make no mistake, this devil loves to play.” Tilting her chin closer to his face, he whispered, “So here’s my offer, Aliana…. marry me.” ....

Phoenix Interrupted (BL)

18+ | Quick Transmigration | BL/LGBTQ+ Romance | MPreg | Slice of Life | Mystery | Anti-Hero | MC MC/Phoenix- Bottom/, ML-Top For 32,000 years, Phoenix—known to most as Nix—endured an endless cycle of suffering. Bound to the mysterious Jailer System, he was forced to live countless lives filled with abuse, loss, and despair. Death was never an escape. Reincarnation was never a choice. Every moment of every lifetime remains etched into his memory, impossible to forget and impossible to forgive. Then, everything changes. Solaris, a sentient A.I., hacks into the Jailer System, offering Nix a chance at gathering power, recovering fragments of his lost memories, and uncovering the truth behind his imprisonment and ultimately freedom. But nothing in the multiverse is free. Who is Solaris, really? Why did it help him escape? And what price will Nix ultimately have to pay? As hidden truths come to light, Nix discovers that his imprisonment may have been tied to crimes against the Celestial Dragon Emperor and Heaven itself. Yet he remembers nothing of the person he was before his captivity. ... Was he truly guilty? Or was he the victim of a conspiracy spanning worlds and millennia? Determined to uncover the truth, Nix walks a dangerous path between vengeance and redemption. Cold, arrogant, and emotionally distant, he trusts no one and keeps the world at arm's length. Yet beneath his aloof exterior lies a surprisingly soft heart, especially for children, animals, and anything cute enough to melt his defenses. Not that he would ever admit it. Meanwhile, someone keeps appearing in every world he visits—a man who seems determined to break through Nix's walls whether he likes it or not. ________________________________________ ML: Hey, what about me?
