Every "Diver" gets 96 hours on Earth before Thirstfall drags them back. Most return broken. Some don't return at all. Dryden Sands survived that loop for ten years—until he reached Rank-A... and got killed by the person he trusted most. But the Sacred Codex he'd found had other plans—it reset everything to Day One. Now Dryden remembers everything—hidden dungeons, broken rules, future disasters. But the System remembers him... And in Thirstfall, anomalies don't just struggle—they get purged. --------------

[BL] To pay off his debt, Lim Garam decided to debut as an idol under the entertainment company that belongs to the loan shark he owes. But the contract he signed wasn't a business contract. It was a marriage contract with Song Sihyuk--- the Alpha among the Alphas, and a third-generation chaebol at that. Lim Garam is a Beta, so he never understood Song Sihyuk's obsession with him. But maybe he should have known the moment his contract husband asked him THAT question: “Do you want me to turn you into an Omega, Lim Garam?” *** #omegaverse #betaxalpha #omegaxalpha #sassybeta #suddenlyomega #redflagalpha #toxicrelationship #secretmarriage #showbiz #idol #chaebol #ceo

[Additional Tags: No 18+ ,Early Romance,Goblins,Mysterious Past, Superheroes,Weak To Strong,Tragedy] ____________ Exactly five years ago, the world faced a strange disaster — every man suddenly turned into a half-monster. And now, goblins are spreading fast for no clear reason. I’m Arla, and today I’m joining the mass recruitment test, taking the Knight position. The reason’s simple — I don’t have much mana, but my physical strength is pretty solid. It won’t be easy, but I’ll do it!!!

"Stand proud. You are strong." After that, there were tears. Then a question that would never be answered. Then, there was nothing. Such was the death of Jogo, the unclassified special grade disaster curse born from humanity's fear of the planet earth. Or so, it was in Jujutsu Kaisen. Here, however, he lives on. And now he's gained a new motivation: Hone his power and reach the levels of Ryomen Sukuna and Satoru Gojo, no matter what it takes. okay, here’s the actual synopsis: Jogo from JJK actually survives past the shibuya arc! I tried to keep things realistic for the JJK verse but keep in mind Jogo is the main character so he will be getting cool new abilities and powers. I tried my best to write this well but to be honest, its more so just a story about Jogo aura farming and getting stronger. As some reviews might tell you, the start kinda sucks. As in, chapters 1 and maybe two are pretty trash, but I do think the story overall improves in time. please give it a try! Keep in mind english isnt my first language and this is my first fanfic ever!

Warning: Heavy sexual content and a fucked up male lead. Throw morally grey out the window. Excerpt: "Do you trust me?" His hand drifted to her neck. If he had asked her to walk into the fire with him right then, to tumble willingly into chaos, she would have said yes without hesitation. Her entire body shivered as she nodded, heart hammering, her pulse a wild drum against her ribs. "Always use your words, Bambola. Do you trust me?" he asked again. "Yes…yes…" Her back arched against him instinctively, skin flushed and glistening, every nerve screaming, every muscle taut and alive. Luca's other hand tightened at her neck, squeezing until she gasped for breath. The sensation was exquisite and terrifying, every nerve ending alight as he manipulated the fine line between restriction and pleasure. Vee squeezed her eyes shut, nails digging into his arm as she clung to him, her breath rattling in her chest. He sensed her reaching the edge and drove her closer, the hand at her neck tightening harder. "Luc…" she choked out, a fragmented plea that shattered as her body convulsed, releasing a hot, desperate wave against his fingers and the rug beneath them. Synopsis: She insulted the devil. He decided to own her. Veronica Scalese walks into New York’s elite club, ‘Commissioned’ by accident—and mouths off to the wrong man; Luciano Genovese popularly known as ‘The Devil’.

A mysterious man who wears a cloak. He speaks little, reveals nothing of his past, rides a black horse and carries a sword he deems too noble to be used on common killers and bandits, not out of mercy, but out of judgment. His presence unsettles most he meets. Moving through a broken world every decision he makes could have lethal consequences to anyone around him... even the innocents.

Irene has never had anyone. No family. No safety net. No one to call when things fall apart, maybe only her best friend June. Just a café job she hates, bills she can barely keep up with and a life she's been holding together alone for as long as she can remember. She wasn't looking for anyone. Then he walked in. Tall. Quiet. The kind of presence that didn't ask for attention but took it anyway. He ordered black coffee, left a twenty pound tip and said her name like it already meant something. She told herself he was just a customer. She almost believed it. Chris was everything she didn't know she needed. Patient. Consistent. The first person who ever made her feel like she didn't have to carry everything alone. And before she knew it Irene wasn't just falling for him-- she was addicted. To his voice. His presence. The way he showed up every single time without being asked. For the first time in her life she let someone in. That was her first mistake. Because the thing about addiction is that it doesn't warn you before it destroys you. Chris had a life she knew nothing about. A world beyond Belfast cafés and late night phone calls and candlelit dinners. A world with temptations she never saw coming. And when the truth finally surfaces Irene is left with nothing but the ruins of the first real thing she ever allowed herself to have. She walks away. Because she has to. Because staying would break what little is left of her. But walking away from Chris is not the same as being free of him. His memory lives in everything. Every song. Every late night. Every cup of coffee she can't drink without thinking of how it all started. She tries to move on. She tries to be okay. And she almost convinces herself that she is. Then he comes back. Changed. Broken. Fighting for her in ways he never did when he had her. Saying everything she needed to hear a year too late. And Irene is faced with the question she's been running from since the day she walked away — Can you forgive someone who shattered the first trust you ever gave away? Or is some damage too deep to come back from? Addicted to Chris is a story about love and betrayal. About the walls we build and the people brave enough to climb them. About learning the difference between someone who wants you and someone who truly chooses you. And about what happens when the one person you tried hardest to forget — refuses to let you go. Will curiosity or caution win? And just how dangerous can obsession get?

Updates on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays. In the 36th century, humanity rules the solar system. War, poverty, and scarcity are relics of a distant past. Cities hum with limitless energy. Hunger and illiteracy have been engineered out of existence. Society is stable and prosperous. But peace has its own consequences. In a world without scarcity, conflict becomes ideology. Extremist sects and insurgent movements rise in the vacuum, threatening the fragile order billions now take for granted. Stretch is a marshal — one of the elite civil enforcers tasked with preserving stability across the system. Analytical, disciplined, and dangerously adaptive in combat, he believes in the structure he was raised in. Until a new organization emerges. One unlike the others. Their methods targeted and precise. Their goals unclear. As attacks escalate and loyalties fracture, Stretch finds himself pushed beyond protocol, beyond rank, and beyond certainty as he tries to protect all that matters to him.

What makes dragons strong? It's not their power or magic, but their mind. Arrogance, greed, Iron Will, and the lack of human restraints. What would happen if you threw such a creature into human society? Would they understand humans? What does love even mean to them? This is the situation that our MC, Arad Orion found himself in. A newborn dragon bringing "Might make Right" to the humanoids, but why? Due to an abnormal condition, the mighty void dragons are on the brink of extinction. Their bodies have suddenly started rejecting their kind. Due to that, Arad's mother dropped his egg into a forest where he could hatch safely, leaving him with a fragment of her consciousness and informing him of the condition of their race. From that point, his goal became clear. To save their race by either finding a cure for their condition or going the second route of making more void dragons. But, sadly, nothing is ever that easy. Finding a cure is almost impossible. Arad is still practically a newborn and cannot tap into the terrifying might of his race, and his rarity makes him a prime target for mages and scholars seeking to study the dying race. Dragons are arrogant, proud, and vicious. Yet those feeling extends to those whom they love. You who touched a dragon's love, Retribution is an insult, and life is a crime. Beware as merely existing draws the dragon's wrath. Follow Arad on his journey as he grows from a naive wyrmling to a grown dragon with enough wisdom and power to stand with the strongest of the world. *** If you liked the story, please support it with power stones and comments!

However, his rapid advancement creates a unique logistical challenge: to continue receiving rewards, his System requires him to give his now-obsolete resources away.
