What Patrick didn't know is that just like him, Leonora as well is a different woman now. If they have become unapproachable cold-hearted people, it's because of what happened to them years ago.

Will Leonora overcome their differences and let their love rekindle or will she move on and start over with somebody else? ****** Author's Note: If you're looking for a romantic story where the female lead has a weak personality - or women who endure insults and forgive everything in the name of love, I am sorry to inform you that this book is not about that. This story focuses more on a family's daily life, life as a couple, human rights, and making true friendships in adulthood. This is my first original novel, so I hope you enjoy reading it. The book has a happy ending. If you like the story and would love to support this book, you can do it by leaving your feedback so I know where to improve. Many thanks in advance for your support.

Just when Kyva believed her life could not sink any lower, she is auctioned off in a brothel as a sex slave. Refusing to surrender the only dignity she had left, she escapes. Wounded, hunted, and with absolutely nowhere to go, Kyva flees into the wilderness to escape from her captors. There, she stumbles upon an injured white fox caught in a hunter's snare. Despite her own desperate situation, she could not bring herself to ignore the creature's suffering. So she frees it, and against all reason, takes it with her. But after nursing the fox back to health, Kyva expects it to return to the wild where it belongs. But it doesn't. Instead, it continues to follow her. “Little fox,” she tells it one evening, exhaustion heavy in her voice as she prepares to move again. “I don't have food. I don't even have a place to sleep. I'm being hunted by slave traders. We should go our separate ways.” —-- Minutes later, Kyva wakes up after collapsing from exhaustion. To her surprise, she finds fresh fruits, good clothes and clean water laid carefully beside her. The white fox sits nearby, watching her with unsettling intelligence. 'Obviously, you need me more than I need you,' the fox thinks coldly, tail swishing in mild disdain. 'If not for the inconvenience of you being my mate, I would have left you to starve in the wild.' While Kyva believes she rescued a helpless creature, she may have unknowingly bound herself to something far more dangerous. As she journeys deeper into an unfamiliar land inhabited by beast men and women, Kyva begins to carve out a fragile new life for herself. The more she learns about this strange world, the more her mysterious fox companion refuses to leave her side, and seems determined to drive away anyone who gets too close.

With a vintage camera slung over her shoulder and a bunch of blue clitorias in hand, she felt like a breath of fresh air. Or so he thought.

The story you know. The version they never showed you. From the frozen horrors beyond the Wall to the golden corruption of King's Landing, from the bloodsoaked battlefields of the Riverlands to the scorching slave cities of Essos — this is Westeros retold without restraint. Every war is fought. Every throne is claimed. Every betrayal lands exactly as it did before. But behind every closed door, every furtive glance, every tension-loaded scene the show faded to black on — this story stays. Lords and sellswords. Queens and handmaidens. Knights and rangers. No rank protects you from desire, and no oath survives the cold. The plot follows the full journey from the Haunted Forest to the Long Night — every major beat, every beloved and despised character — but nothing is left to the imagination. *Same game.

Why is it, that no matter how many world shattering heroes rise and fall, no matter how many times a realm is said to be depleted of resources, a hero rises again - burning all the resources they find as they go? Another inheritance is always found, another spirit herb, magical artefact... and no one asks why they never seem to run out... ...what keeps creating all these fortunate encounters? Why? And what happens if it stops? --- Warning, this book is a slow burner - rather than a fast paced DBZ style novel --- AUTHORS UPDATE: --- First 30 (one-sixth of) existing chapters have now been edited and reuploaded. Very little has been changed plot or event wise. It's been grammar, clarity, pacing/smoothness, period accuracy, and detail/sense layering. --- Apologies to my Readers My life has gone completely insane since 2019. I am prepared to start again, but I'm going to be slowly posting revised and clean chapters first, taking down old chapters as the new edits completely replace them. Unfortunately, Webnovel doesn't alert to updates to old content. I'm managing a couple of chapters a week worth of editing. By the way, if anyone thinks AI can do the work of writing for you, I say that it's an invaluable editing tool and soundingboard - but I find it still takes three to four hours of rewriting and discussing with the AI to update each chapter to a state I'm happy with. The payoff is that the AI keeping track of the novel events, characters, plots and threads as I go; trying to keep all that straight and losing focus is a big part of what blocked me last time, so hopefully, once I get to new content things will flow smoothly. --- This work was written and revised by the author with the assistance of a trained AI editor. All final choices, worldbuilding, and character voices were shaped by the author’s intent and hand.

A 40-year-old man suddenly dies and is reincarnated in a world devastated by zombies—but instead of becoming a hero or a survivor, he wakes up as a zombie girl.

This story follows a young Japanese man named Yuki Makoto, who returns to Japan after completing his high school and university education in America. Seeking independence and distance from his past, he purchases an old house that has stood vacant for years on the outskirts of Tokyo. Before moving in, Yuki never believed in ghosts or the supernatural. To him, such things were merely folklore, products of imagination and cultural myth. However, after spending several nights in the house, he begins to experience disturbances he cannot explain. It starts with poltergeist activity and strange noises echoing through the rooms each night, subtle at first, then increasingly aggressive. Determined to prove he is not imagining it, Yuki records the paranormal occurrences on his phone. The footage, raw and unsettling, is uploaded to the internet and unexpectedly goes viral across Japan and eventually around the world. What began as a desperate attempt to seek help transforms him into an online content creator known for documenting the terrifying phenomena inside his own home. But everything changes the night the entity that once revealed itself only through sounds and moving objects finally appears before him. For the first time, the ghost takes physical form, and it is not what he expected. She is not merely a frightening apparition, but a woman of striking beauty and unsettling allure. Confronted with a presence that is both terrifying and captivating, Yuki must face a question he never imagined asking himself, should he fear her… or be drawn toward her?
