This is a draft for wsa 2026 Fire That Burns Those Who Dare. Water That Drowns The Curious. A Dead Man’s Story. And A Tower That Has Been Waiting For Him. 1 Chapter Every 1-2 Days

#WSA2025 Word went around that no one that had ever knocked on the esteemed Eleazar family’s doors seeking shelter were turned away. Fleeing the prince of Lustris no less, Arabella Sterling held out hope that those weren’t mere rumors as she crossed the border over to Umbraria, home to all creatures of the night. A land where noble blood like hers was a highly coveted delicacy. As such, she wasn’t turned away, but since the Eleazars ran no charity, Arabella was compelled to become the sole blood provider to the heir of the family in exchange for safety. Though never, in a million years, did she imagine that what had started as a simple trade off, could morph into a swirl of tangled passion when the cold and stoic vampire she served showed interest in the young woman beyond the crimson nectar coursing her veins. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note that the most brutal of abuse (Which includes explicit sexual abuse) takes place near the climax of the story. All I will say is that it won't be enacted by the ML.

She came to avenge her twin—betrayed by Li Wang's jealous consort. Getting revenge? Essential. Stealing a Wang for herself? Even better. Yang Xiuying is the daughter of Long Yu Island's most powerful lord—though the arrogant nobles of Jian Kingdom's capital see her as nothing more than a girl from some backwater island. Perfect. Let them underestimate her. She's here for one reason: to destroy the vicious primary consort who ruined her twin sister's life in Li Wang's manor. But why stop at revenge? While she's turning the capital upside down, she might as well claim a Wang for herself. Lucky her—she's already married to one. Unlucky him—Qin Wang, the kingdom's most feared general, got stuck with her thanks to a weapons trade deal. Armed with zero shame, a razor-sharp tongue, and absolutely no respect for anyone's authority, Yang Xiuying is about to show this entire kingdom that mermaids don't play by human rules. Chaos? Guaranteed. Comedy? Non-stop. Regrets? Not a single one. # A lighthearted Chinese historical romance—99.999999% comedy, 0.000001% drama. If you love a heroine who's skilled, savage, and hilariously shameless, this one's for you. # What to Expect: - A mermaid heroine with zero shame, a razor-sharp tongue, and absolutely no respect for anyone's authority - A cold general husband who has no idea what he's gotten himself into - Palace intrigue, scheming enemies, and chaos at every turn - Revenge, romance, and laugh-out-loud comedy from start to finish ******* # Cooking Tips from the Consort: “Boil him!!” Yang Xiuying snapped. “Ahem... Wangfei means take him for interrogation,” her senior maid amended. “Right! Make sure he’s nice and tender. I’ll come back to eat him this evening.” “Wangfei means interrogate him quickly. This evening she’ll return for the report.” The maid then shot her mistress a warning glare to stop her from issuing more orders about boiling people in front of hundreds and thousands of witnesses. Yang Xiuying could only pout in response. ******* # Note to Readers: This serialization contains Volume 1 of the novel.

Authors Preamble: This is my first novel so if you see anything wrong leave a comment so I can try to improve and/or fix it. My plans for updating this novel is hopefully everyday but I cannot guarantee that as I have a job and a life outside of this. I will try to have at least 1500-2000 words per chapter but I will focus on ending points so I don't just go on with a chapter for no reason. --------------------------------------------------------- This is a story about a Rio who dies when he wasn't supposed to. The gods decide to give him 2 choices, Rio chooses the second which come with 5 wishes. This sends him outside his home Omniverse into somewhere. First stop will be a sort of tutorial world/Universe and then the main world/Universe which is the MCU with some differences. Rio will have the force, a modified gamer system, a Riolu egg and DNA lock. I will not be writing any explicit scenes but they will be implied by fade to black when the time comes for such a situation. I have not decided on if it will be harem or not, most likely not unless readers really want it. Though there will likely be 2 females in the relationship at least but I don't really see that as a harem. If you have any suggestions leave a comment.

{Five extra chapters on Christmas And ten more on New Year’s} Excerpt~ “I told you not to steal anything. It’s illegal!” I frowned at him. “I don’t get why Earthlings can’t just take whatever they want. It’s produced on your planet, right?” “Ugh, right—but we have a money system to follow. We don’t just take things without permission!” I said, snatching it back from his hand. “Hm? But… you stole my heart. Is that legal?” he said, leaning closer with a mischievous smirk. I pushed him back, my cheeks flushing bright red. “Idiot! Where did you even learn that from?!” “Oh… it was on that thing—TV. The girl in it didn’t seem to mind when the guy said it. Why are you mad?” *** All Ling Yunhua ever wanted… was him—her childhood friend, her first love. After years of silently carrying her feelings for Tang Shixiu, Yunhua finally finds the courage to confess. But after all the mixed signals and lingering hope, he rejects her—coldly, without hesitation—shattering the only dream she ever held close. Devastated and on the edge of giving up on everything… that’s when he appears—like an angel fallen from the stars. A man from beyond the galaxy crosses paths with Yunhua at her lowest point. From a race that erased emotions long ago, he begins to feel something foreign… something human. Something like love. But danger closes in fast. The research organization Yunhua works for—and the government—are secretly hunting him down after discovering that his alien DNA holds the power to cure any disease. Determined to protect him, Yunhua makes a dangerous choice: she hides him under the lie of being her boyfriend. Now they live together. A clueless, awkward alien learning to feel… and a girl torn between duty and the growing storm in her heart. How long can she keep him hidden in a world desperate to dissect him? And when the time comes for him to return to the stars… will she be able to let him go?

Love between the eternal and the mortal always ends in tragedy. Lisa had known this since childhood. She’d heard enough tales to understand how such stories always conclude. Yet when Mark entered her life, she allowed herself—for one fleeting moment—to believe in a fairytale with a happy ending. She thought she could outwit fate, keep Mark hidden from the clan, and build a fragile semblance of peace. But during their quiet vacation, a strange file suddenly appears on her laptop. At first, the text merely mirrors small details of their day, amusing Lisa with its eerie coincidences. Until the next page predicts Mark’s death. How many lives is an immortal willing to sacrifice to save the one she loves?

Better enjoyed when bored but doesn't want a heavy lore story, or sitting in your frontyard while the sun's burning/raining, or trying to fall asleep, or just overall relaxing. I like describing sceneries, so an entire chapter might just be filled with me glazing the magnificent view in my head. Apologies for any writing/grammar mistake, english isn't my first language.

I have been dead for a long time, but I am still alive, well... at least part of me is alive.

I have contracted a strange illness named 'longevity', accompanied by symptoms such as memory loss. PS. I'm trapped in the tomb and can't get out. Can someone take me out? Waiting online, pretty urgent.

Ash opened his eyes to find that he had traveled to a strange nation of many races, and people were kneeling before him. Before he had time to adapt to the new identity of the Terminus Observer, he was put to jail – as a cult leader. In prison, controlled by a high-tech chip, he was unable to use violence.

She wakes with a soul that does not belong to this world. Fragments of another reality cling to her, and existence thins where she stands. Elira. Ilyra. Death does not take her. It circles. It waits. It kneels. The gods sense a flaw they cannot name. Because while she breathes, ending remains possible—even for those who call themselves eternal. One universe is already gone. Its silence remembers her. So the old ones stir, wearing human flesh, to correct what should never have returned. But some things do not need to remember to bring the end with them.

WARNING: MATURE CONTENT [18+] An enemy, a punishment, a curse in disguise of blessing. An alpha who simply wants to claim an omega as his. An omega escaping his tragic past, trying to heal the scars that seem to never fade. Synopsis: In a world where Alphas ruled and Omegas were seen as figures of motherhood and love, Ren lived as a Beta. And in a world where humans have mixed with other species such as gods, demons, elves, witches, Ren was a human of pure blood. However, from a young age, he had been able to see what others cannot. A mere glance could kill. A single touch could heal. Born with a cursed blessing—the power to both save and destroy—Ren was bound and raised by the temple, blindfolded and used as a living weapon. For years, they unleashed his power against their greatest enemy: the Ravhara Kingdom, with whom war had raged for centuries. But after a certain incident, Ren ran away from his motherland and sought refuge in the border of the Ravhara Empire, hiding his identity. Disguised as a servant, he began working under the very army he once fought—under their Imperial General, Zayden Sylvaris—as his personal servant under strange circumstances. Ren worked by his side like a ghost. As if he wasn’t there in the first place. Everything was going smoothly… until one night, the general followed the sweet scent of an omega—only to find Ren, his personal attendant, standing there. Him? An Omega in heat? But that couldn’t be. He didn’t any hire Omega, and Betas weren’t supposed to have such a sweet scent. So certainly… he had to be an Omega hiding his identity. And it was the very servant who screamed, “DEMON!” on their first meeting. Zayden becomes consumed with the need to find out the truth. But as desire clashes with hatred, and secrets unravel, one thing becomes dangerously clear: The servant he thought was ordinary, is far more than he appeared. How long can Ren keep his identity buried? And what happens when an Alpha who only wants to claim… meets an omega who was never meant to be touched? DISCLAIMER: This story is set in a fictional, fantasy, omegaverse (ABO) universe. All lore are the author’s imagination. Content Warning: This novel contains scenes of violence, trauma, abuse, and other mature themes that may be disturbing to some readers. Please read cautiously. This is also a slow burn. So if you expect quick progress, then it might not be your cup of tea. And lastly, as I always say, understand the characters. Do not judge them. Enjoy the read!
