It has huge amounts of money enough for you to get rid of that.”   Lucas stretched his hand forward towards April to receive the card but tears instead gathered in her eyes while staring at the black card in between his fingers.  “That? But— This is your child.” April’s eyes already flood with tears.  “I won’t repeat myself; I have nothing to do with it. Just get rid of it and live your life, the money is enough to keep your family happy for years to come.”  April raised her head staring at his cold eyes before giving any response.  “I guess all men are the same then, a rogue, pathetic and heartless human.” April in a hoarse voice as the tears couldn’t stop but instead flooded more.  “I never intended for this to happen; I kept it for a reason. Sort yourself out, you don’t want to ruin your future, do you?”   Lucas spoke in his cold voice before slamming the card on the table as he strode out in long stride with his secretary behind him.  “You heartless man, I hate you!” April ran out the door screaming at his back with tears in her eyes.  Lucas didn’t turn back or even blink an eyelid to think about what she said.  PS: Cover Photo doesn’t belong to me.

Surviving only by pure luck, he spent the next four decades in seclusion as a Monk of Thaleena, repressing his rage. One day, when a group of so-called ‘Heroes’ attacked him, and the secluded Chapel he prayed in, his life changed forever. That day, an odd voice popped up in his head, calling itself the 3x Cloning System, and it didn’t only help him survive, it paved his path towards vengeance, and the very end of Mankind itself! The Heroes that the population praised and idolised, were destined to be his puppets of destruction! “When the Gods mourn the Fall of Man, let them know that all I wanted in life was to be left alone! If that doesn’t buy me a spot in Paradise, let the Gods know that I’m coming for them next!” ... ~ Be sure to check out my other novels in my author profile.

What is this madness? I've been reborn in the world of Kaisen Jutsu. I've acquired Obito's Kamui technique. Furthermore, it seems I've become Zenin Obito in the Jujutsu world—a worthless, insignificant person with no special skills in life, and an outcast from my family. The only thing I'm grateful to the despicable person who brought me into this world for is that he didn't make me a woman like in that other stupid story. Now I'm trying to learn the cursed energy along with the memories I received from the previous loser in order to survive and not become the disgusting creature that Naoya Zenin calls me. It seems I'm literally his employee, a means for him to boast and become even more of a narcissistic bastard. Now he controls my life and is forcing me to join the Kyoto Jujutsu Academy.

“Ruling is the duty of oversight, to oversee instead of create. To govern instead of live. It came with power and prestige, with obligation and responsibility. Soldiers fought and farmers farmed, but to be King is to rule. To maintain the illusion of power one’s forefathers had built. Marcus didn’t care for any of it. He saw magic when he first opened his eyes, and nothing else ever compared. But the King is old and he an only child. Decisions had to be made. Important, hard decisions. No one expected much of him. Not in regards to anything but magic. They were right not to. Until the cube. Until it taught him what life meant for people not born into nobility, and that all his skill with the arcane did not make him immortal. That running from problems did not, in fact, make them go away. Marcus Sepsimus Lannoy—Marcus to the friends he did not have—touched something he should not have on the day he planned to run from his problems.” Inspiration taken from The Menocht Loop, A Practical Guide to Evil and everything else I have ever read in my life. But mostly the first two, though not overly much from either. Concepts and the like. I hope to do them justice. Am I rambling? I feel like I’m rambling.

As he draws her into his glittering, dangerous life, Xu Tao sets a perilous game in motion. He will rebuild their connection from the ground up, manipulating her amnesia until she depends on him completely.

Hi! My name is [Redacted], but most people just call me Focaccia Bread — or Foca. I’m writing this mostly for fun, but also to share my stories, my questionable life choices, and the music that somehow came out of them. Come along for the ride as I recount how I accidentally built a successful entertainment company and somehow helped create actual music legends. Fair warning: I do not tell stories in order. My brain jumps timelines like a fever dream, so expect chaos, time skips, and zero apologies. I’m weird. I’m quirky. I embrace it with both arms and half a bagel. I know — I’m cringe. But at least I’m free.

As the foundations of reality begin to crumble, one final, haunting question remains: When existence itself collapses… can light still find a way out?

Summer’s marriage to Gideon had been nothing short of a fairytale. Their days were filled with joy and peace until one incident ruined everything completely. The man she loved the most accused her of cheating. ======= “Who is the father of the child?” Gideon thundered, squeezing her shoulders. His crushing grip made her wince in pain and fear. “It’s yours. Why won’t you believe me?” “I wanted to. But these reports tell different story.” He threw the paternity test reports at her. “Hope is not my child?” The ground shattering revelation rattled Summer. She tried everything to save this marriage, but it didn’t turn well. Hidden conspiracy and betrayal tore her world apart, costing her everything, including her own life. The moment she thought it was over, she found herself gone back in time. She had been reborn. Armed with the knowledge of what was to come, she vowed to protect herself and her family. ====== “Since I’ve been given a second chance, I’ll not let the history to repeat.” She thought she would stay far away from Gideon, but fate had other plans. He appeared in front of her again six years later. This time, he didn’t want to kill her. He wanted to trap her, torment her, and own her. Would Summer let him ruin her again? Would she be able to change her fate this time? “In this life, you can never escape me,” Gideon hissed. Summer looked into his eyes coldly. “We ended things six years ago. I’ll never let you crawl back into my life again.” Pinching her chin, he declared, “No one can stop me from reclaiming you, not even you.”

When death is just the beginning of a worse story... Marcus Reeves, a burnt-out 28-year-old IT worker, dies in a truck accident and reincarnates as Caelan Ashborne—the forgotten bastard son of Duke Valorian in a cultivation fantasy world. But this isn't just any world—it's from a webnovel Marcus read, and he knows exactly how this story ends. In two years, his mother Elara dies of illness. Three months later, he's murdered by his half-brother. Both deaths are footnoted in a single line: "unmourned and unremarked." Refused to accept this fate, Caelan discovers he has the Apex Sovereign System—a power that lets him grow stronger through combat, achievement, and bonds with others. Dual cultivation with trusted partners accelerates growth exponentially. There's just one problem: the only person Caelan truly trusts, the only one who's ever loved him unconditionally, is Elara—his mother. As political schemes intensify and assassination attempts begin, Caelan faces an impossible choice. Traditional cultivation won't make him strong enough fast enough to change their fates. But crossing the ultimate taboo—becoming his mother's lover to save her life through forbidden dual cultivation—will make them outcasts even among outcasts. From forgotten bastard to rising power, Caelan must: Master the cultivation system before his enemies master him Navigate deadly family politics where siblings murder for favor Build a faction from the estate's other forgotten children Steal away his half-sister from a cruel arranged marriage Face the novel's "heroic" protagonist who's destined to win Make impossible choices between morality and survival In a world where power is everything and family means nothing, Caelan will forge his own path—even if it means rewriting the very story he's trapped in. Love. Power. Taboo. Survival. Some destinies are worth breaking. Some bonds are worth any price.

Synopsis The solar system was never meant to be discovered. When an interstellar empire pierces the veil of an uncharted solar system, they expect resources, not resistance. What they find instead is a hidden world guarded by ancient laws, celestial beasts, and cultivators who should not exist so far beyond known space. At the heart of it all stands Gu Mian—a woman of extraordinary fate, raised within a powerful cultivation lineage yet unaware that her existence alone disrupts the balance of worlds. By her side is Gu Ruisheng, her steadfast protector and husband, whose blade was forged for war long before the stars noticed them. As portals tear open the skies and foreign armies descend, the battlefield becomes a collision point between science and cultivation, empire and eternity. Ancient seals weaken. Forgotten realms stir. And far above the chaos, an unseen presence watches—the World Consciousness, a being born with the universe itself. Detached, pure, and absolute, the World Consciousness has never interfered… until fate leads him to Ji Yueqing, a mortal woman whose soul carries truths even the universe has forgotten. Their meeting marks the beginning of a shift no god can ignore. War is only the opening act. As Gu Mian ascends toward divinity, secrets of origin, love, and destiny unravel. The universe must decide what survives when mortals challenge heaven, gods learn to love, and worlds refuse to remain silent. This is not just a story of cultivation. It is the story of creation remembering itself. ---

11:42 PM. Mumbai doesn’t fall into chaos. It goes silent. In an instant, sound dies, gravity fractures, and the sky tears open with a violet wound that rewrites reality itself. From that rupture, something new enters the world—not invaders, not aliens, but predators engineered for a planet that no longer follows human rules. Raghav, an ex–special forces breacher trying to survive one last ordinary night, becomes the first witness—and the first hunter. When a biological scout attacks him on a rooftop, he learns the core truth of the new world: this isn’t an apocalypse where you hide and wait. This is a reset. And at zero, only those who adapt survive. As Mumbai collapses vertically—rooftops turning lethal, buildings losing gravity, streets becoming hunting grounds—Raghav is forced into constant motion. Every floor is a trap. Every sound is a signal. Every mistake is permanent. When he finds Aisha, his younger sister, trapped in the chaos, survival stops being personal. It becomes a responsibility. But the rules don’t bend for family. Carrying another life means harder choices, colder decisions, and sacrifices that strip away what little humanity remains. As monsters evolve with terrifying biological logic, daylight reveals something worse: humans. Scavengers. Trappers. “Safe zones” that demand weapons—or women—as entry fees. In the World at Zero, morality has no calorie value. From collapsing towers to underground tunnels that breathe like living veins, World at Zero is a brutal, grounded post-apocalyptic survival saga where: Physics is unreliable Silence is armor Humanity is a liability And survival is a learned skill, paid for in blood This is not a story about saving the world. It’s about learning how to live in the ruins of one— when the reset is permanent, and the hunt has already begun.

What if the survival of entire worlds depended on a single contest? Across the multiverse, champions are chosen to face unimaginable challenges in a city that floats above the clouds. No one knows what awaits them, and the stakes are higher than anyone can imagine. When someone from Earth is drawn into this struggle, they're forced to confront not just powerful opponents, but a reality far larger and more dangerous than they ever thought possible.

"A Rejected Omega, A Dark Alpha Prince and their twisted dangerous fate." Amelie Conley, the eldest daughter of a revered Alpha family, was once expected to carry on her family’s proud legacy. However, when she turned sixteen, she failed to awaken her wolf, which made her earn the scornful title—the Curse of the Conley Family. At eighteen, she found her destined mate and carried his child, believing she had finally been given a chance at happiness. But when she rushed to share the news, she found him in a compromising position with her younger sister, Flora. Betrayal cut deeper than any wound, but the final blow came when he rejected her without hesitation, declaring Flora as his true mate. Shunned and heartbroken, Amelie made the painful decision to leave her pack for the sake of her unborn child. But just as she tried to escape, she was ambushed—hunted down like prey. Desperate to protect herself and the life growing inside her, Amelie fled to save herself and her unborn child, only to collapse into the arms of an enigmatic stranger—Gabriel Sinclair. Gabriel was no ordinary man. He was the Alpha Prince, a name feared across the nation. For twelve long years, he had scoured the lands for his mate, only to find nothing. He had convinced himself that the Moon Goddess despised him, just as his own mother had. But the moment he laid eyes on Amelie, everything changed. "You were marked, weren't you?" His voice dropped, edged with something dangerously close to possession as his gaze met hers, demanding the truth.  The question left Amelie in a dilemma. She didn't wish to tell him the truth. "I am not an ordinary wolf, Amelie. Who the fuck marked you before me?" Gabriel voiced in a possessive yet intimidating tone.  Amelie didn’t know that the man, who saved her was none other than the infamous Dark Tyrant—the Alpha Prince, Gabriel Sinclair, whose intentions were still unknown to her. ~~~~ **The Story is a pure fiction.
