betrayal

In a ruined future where the government now sells basic needs, Aléssio, a boy born with a beauty that was ethereal, yet didn't have a fate as wonderful as his looks and appearance did, decided to join a mysterious program named "Saviors", a technological project that would grant people powers to make a better world. Just as everything is going smoothly, fate decides to lead him back to Cassandra, a girl who once saved him and later shattered his world. The deeper he ventured into the program, the more twisted the truth becomes. Who is Dr. Aurèle, the man who shares the same face and an almost identical name despite existing in this timeline ? And why do people grow more and more corrupted day by day ? To survive and discover the hidden truth, Aléssio must face his past, overcome the worst version of himself, fight not only for the world, but for the people he loves. Because the greatest threat was never the corrupted nor the government... but something far closer. ------- Disc : This author is just a young student and is working for a boss called school.

So after hundreds of years of pulling beasts of legend to her side, rewriting history, and backing him into a corner where he broke his heart into pieces, she thinks that with one final push... she may convince Ashton to simply end his own existence. Ashton is fully aware of her little schemes, it's not every day a dragon get's its still beating heart ripped out, then is bound to the land it ruthlessly conquered. Ashton would have even found it mildly poetic that the slain dragon was now forced to bless the land for all eternity... if, and emphasis on the IF, the blessing hadn't been twisted into a curse for the last 700 years. Now, Ashton has a few minor inconveniences to deal with. First, he's stuck in a decaying body. Second his memories aren't fully intact. Third, it would prick his pride if the descendants of "blessed" dragon died while he was in their territory. Fourth, he has two really, really, REALLY scary siblings that don't always bother with the details. Fifth, the only reason this princess and her grandmother even had the chance to scheme against him is because he was looking for a possible mate. He's the only one of his kind, thousands of years alone has him craving for a companion... for a heart to sing just for him... There are really only two outcomes now that Ashton is starting to regain his memories. Will the princess succeed in dragging him down, used as the new sacrifice to keep the "blessing" going, or will he ascend? Well, maybe three outcomes. Maybe this time a heart will sing for him as he ascends... a bird can hope.
