betrayal

In Tomodachi, Motosaki Izuna, an 18-year-old American-Japanese military child, transfers to the prestigious Matsugaya High in Japan, eager to reconnect with his roots and finish his final year of high school. Little does he know, his arrival coincides with the onset of a sinister curse—the Tomodachi Curse—an ancient evil that thrives on the bonds of friendship. As Motosaki reunites with his childhood best friend, Aisha Ayami, he quickly forms close ties with Aisha and her four friends: the shy but insightful Rebecca Haruna, the fiery and competitive Emma Chisaka, the serene yet fragile Otsuki Nagagami, and the proud, wealthy Naomi Suzuki. While the group enjoys their time together, a hidden darkness looms. The Tomodachi, a vengeful yokai spirit, preys on the girls’ relationships, driving them to betray one another in a twisted quest for love. Motosaki soon discovers that he is entangled in a deadly game: to break the curse, he must identify the true Tomodachi before the Matsugaya Festival on December 20th. Each wrong choice results in the brutal erasure of a girl from existence, leaving Motosaki in a cycle of despair as he is repeatedly thrust back in time with no memory of the girls he lost. As he delves deeper into the mystery, Motosaki confronts the chilling nature of the Tomodachi Curse and the darkness it brings out in his friends. With each iteration, he grows more determined to save them, piecing together clues and forming new bonds while battling the mounting psychological terror. However, as the curse intensifies, the Tomodachi becomes bolder, taunting Motosaki with haunting memories and manipulating his perceptions of friendship and love. In a desperate bid to save his friends and end the torment once and for all, Motosaki must navigate a treacherous path filled with heartbreak and sacrifice. As the festival approaches, he faces a harrowing choice: risk losing everything by confronting the Tomodachi directly or accept his own tragic fate in an effort to secure a happier ending for those he loves. -------------- To all who know what my novel Shokyo is, this is a reimagined version of my first horror/thriller story, Shokyo!

--- She lived for everyone else. She died for no one. Vivienne spent her entire life pouring herself empty — working herself to the bone so her ungrateful siblings, Rosalind and Caspian, could live in comfort they never earned. No rest. No dreams. No one to call her own. Then, at twenty-six, her body simply… gave out. She expected nothing after death. No heaven, no second chances — just silence. But a god named Valdris has other plans. Reborn as the daughter of a powerful noble house in a glittering medieval empire, Vivienne wakes up in a gilded cradle with chubby baby hands, a doting nanny named Cecile, and absolutely zero patience for starting over. This time, she has made herself one promise: this life belongs to her. No sacrificing. No giving until there is nothing left. No falling for anyone who doesn't deserve it. The only problem? Alaric — the coldest, most untouchable duke in the entire empire — seems to have not received that particular memo. He doesn't smile. He doesn't bend. He has never, in all his years, looked twice at anyone. Until her. It wasn't supposed to happen. He wasn't supposed to notice her. And she was absolutely, certainly, definitely not supposed to feel anything about it. But fate, as it turns out, has never once cared about her plans. --- Tags: #Transmigration #Reincarnation #MedievalFantasy #SlowBurn #ColdMaleLead #AngstyRomance #HappyEnding #NobleHeroine #SecondChanceAtLife

Excerpt... Henry’s hand shot out, closing around her arm, firmly enough that her breath caught. “Stay…” He stood beside her, close enough that she could feel him without touching him. “I…” Livia’s voice broke before it found strength. “I didn’t flee.” She still would not fully look at him. Her eyes remained on Bella. “This is not my fault,” she whispered. “No,” Henry said at once. “It isn’t.” He looked away, then back at her. “Do you love him, Livia?” “Please,” she cried. “Stop calling me that.” “Do you love him?” he asked. “Yes,” she said. “So soon after me?” he asked. “I thought we…” He stopped. “I assumed you…” “That I what?” Livia asked, her voice trembling. “That I loved you? Henry…” she began then she caught herself. “Your Highness. I did seek solace in your arms... Yes. I will not lie about that. I wanted you. I trusted you. In a sea of sharks and wolves, you were the safest thing I could find.” Her eyes filled again. “You made me feel as though I could breathe. Turns out, you are no better.” “Why?” Henry asked quietly. “Because I am the king?” “Because you lied to me. You let me trust a man who did not exist.” “I existed.” “Henry the merchant existed because you created him.” “For good reasons, I had to keep my identity hidden,” Henry said. “The king moving around London without security,” he continued, “what do you think would happen?” “You speak as though I was asking you to announce yourself in the middle of Cheapside with trumpets and a crown. It doesn’t matter anymore,” Livia said, looking away from him. “I am getting married.” “Yes,” Henry said, the word leaving him like a blade drawn from flesh. “To my best friend. Did you tell him?” Henry asked. Livia’s brows drew together. “Tell him what?” “That I fucked you. Did you tell him I was your first? Did you tell him you once trusted me? That you once promised yourself to me because you thought I was the safest thing in your miserable world?” “That is not fair.” “Then tell me is it fair that Richard gets to call you his intended while I stand here pretending I do not know the sound of your moan? Is it fair that he holds your hand while I cannot even say your name without ruining you?” “Please stop.” “Did you tell him,” Henry pressed, unable to stop himself now, “that you were mine before you were ever his?” “How could I?” she asked, the words breaking. “I did not even know who you were.” “Then let me ask you this,” he said, leaning down just a little, his lips a hair’s breath from hers. “Has he fucked you? Has he touched what is mine?” ..... Sold into slavery and trapped in the brutal underworld of London, Livia Valenti is placed on the auction block. She makes a desperate choice and places her fate in the hands of the mysterious man who once caught her stealing. She does not know he is the King of England.

Caught between the king who awakened her heart and the duke who may be her safest escape, Livia is pulled into a dangerous court. Livia becomes Diana Bellamy, the woman another man intends to wed, King Henry must decide how far a king can go before love becomes scandal, obsession, and war. From the author who brought you: 1.

"Of course. But I won't give it to you for free." Ivy smiled like a fox. Silas closed his eyes; he was ready for her to demand something sky-high and said, "Okay.

In the turbulent era of Europa from 1913 to 1920, a devastating world war ignites following the assassination of Great Duke Francis, heir to the Middle Nations of Germano-Hungry—loyal allies of the formidable Great Empire. This spark escalates into a brutal clash, with the Great Empire locked in combat against a coalition of powers: the steadfast Republic of France, the shadowy Transnatia (formerly Romania), the expansive Great United Front of Russia, and the naval-dominant Island Nation of Commonwealth (Britain), as additional nations are pulled into the conflict across the years. "Trenchbound" chronicles the war through shifting perspectives of soldiers on the battlefield, each chapter capturing a unique viewpoint at critical junctures. From the desperate struggles of everyday infantrymen navigating treacherous trenches and mechanized assaults—featuring colossal steam-driven tanks and armored contraptions—to the elite magic divisions, where mages command ethereal flying machines (distinct from conventional aircraft) to soar above the fray. These sorcerers enchant bullets with devastating spells, causing them to explode on impact or unerringly track their targets, turning the odds lethally against ordinary troops and amplifying the chaos of combat. Through these personal narratives, the novel delves into the grim realities of a war where arcane enhancements merge with industrial might, exposing the fragility of life, the bonds of camaraderie, and the shattering consequences of enchanted warfare that reshapes Europa's destiny. This alternate historical epic blends authentic period tensions with limited magical intrigue, painting a vivid portrait of survival amid enchanted peril.
