The night sky shimmered with countless stars, streaked by falling lights, all under the watch of a radiant red moon.The wind was cool and gentle. A sky like this was a rare sight; one that hadn't appeared in a million years. There was complete silence. A large castle, red and white in color, was surrounded by a beautiful garden filled with many kinds of flowers. Some were tall and beautiful, while others were short and gorgeous. "The breeze rustled the flowers, scattering petals like confetti while carrying their fragrance across the garden. Inside the castle, in a large bedroom, maids were gathered around a red bed. They had worried looks on their faces, and some were rushing out of the room. A woman was in extreme pain as she gave birth. The maids were assisting her. The woman was the Queen Of Angels Seraphina Valentine, giving birth to her third child. She was trying to endure the pain, which was so intense it felt like she was about to die. Though she had given birth twice before, nothing compared to this pain so sharp it felt as if it would tear her apart. Lilith, the head maid, held her hand. "Hold on, my Queen," she said, her voice filled with concern. Seraphina's scream tore through the chamber before it died into ragged breaths. Her body trembled, sweat clinging to her skin as her fists crushed the bedsheets in desperation. Then, a baby's cry rang out.

The universe is grand and incomprehensible. Civilizations rise and fall every cycle. Death is only a number; mortals are innumerable. Fate is influenced, destiny is manipulated, and inevitability is revised. Only in ascension can one achieve eternity; however, destruction is always in wait. War and death are omnipresent, and the center of all conspiracies rises, too doubtful to place his trust in anyone or thing, besides himself. This is the tale of a creature's return to its origin.

Daniel Carter was a 32-year-old man who found no enjoyment in life, living a dull existence and working a monotonous job. That was his life until the day he was unexpectedly summoned to another world. However, unlike the epic battles and valiant quests he had read about, Daniel’s mission wasn’t to defeat the Demon King—because the Hero had already accomplished that. "Why summon me, then?" he asked. The King looked into his eyes and replied, "We need you to impregnate the Saintess." -------------------------------------------------------- Hi everyone, I'm the author of "Leveling Up in High School of the Dead." I had to pause writing that for a while due to personal matters, and now I’m trying to get back into it. I thought I'd create this intriguing little story to help me get back in form. I hope you all enjoy it. No Harem this time.

Park Siwon has nothing left to look forward to in this life. No family to return to. No friends to rely on. Nothing but the weight of a life that feels too heavy to carry. So when everything becomes too much, he makes one final decision: End his life after a day of doing the things that once made him feel alive. He visits his old school —the place where his first love bloomed…and withered. He eats at the family restaurant, which his grandparents took him to on his tenth birthday. And finally, he pours his heart into one last karaoke song. “Today, I tried to feel like myself. I did the things that used to make me happy, but… why can’t I feel anything? Only when I screamed my throat raw did something spark inside me. How ironic that something I’ve never done made me feel—happy.” Confused and tired of false hopes, Siwon slips onto the rooftop of the building, ready to jump. Until a voice stops him. “Don’t do that! You sing so well! It would be a waste to throw that voice away—become an idol instead!” The stranger turns out to be a desperate PD searching for one last contestant for a brand-new idol survival show. Siwon can hardly believe it. Him? An idol? If he were someone worth liking, his parents wouldn’t have abandoned him. He wouldn’t have been left alone. His first love wouldn’t have discarded him like a used tissue paper. Yet the PD’s words linger. And before he knows it, he’s swept into a massive studio filled with thousands of hopeful trainees—all fighting for a spot in the debut lineup. Under the blinding stage lights, he suddenly saw a familiar face in the crowd. "Siwon? You—" His old flame came back in the form of another contestant in this damned idol survival show. Lovemir Kang, a nugu who once debuted in an unpopular idol group that later faded into oblivion, faced Siwon in utter disbelief. What are the chances that an old almost-lover will meet again in an idol survival show? Second chance in life. Second chance in love. Will the two of them survive the cut throat competition to become an idol to debut together?

Coming back from the magic world, Riya rebuked her shameless stepmother. She was back to her first life with the world treasure and thought that her life would be smooth sailing. But… What was happening with the environment? Why did the mana suddenly recover on this Green Planet? And why did those magic beasts also appear? Riya: ??? Ah, Riya silently swore to secretly become stronger to deal with these magic beasts that went on rampage. She would use her runes to make a better life while watching the world recover from the destruction. Unfortunately, things were not so simple. Her best friend’s brother suddenly locked his attention on her. “Ah, ah, ah, you don't have to mind me….” “The runes you make are really interesting. Can you show me more?” The man smiled and stepped closer. “I…I can, but can you please not come too close?!” Riya just wanted to meditate silently, so how did she suddenly attract this big boss’s attention? ...

This compilation is a harmonious blend of emotionally charged poetry, and thought provoking lyrics. Dive in. Or just dip your feet in from the shoreline. Just be ready for an internal swim. What comes after we've healed? How long does it take for the walls to come down? Will I ever really love again? Welcome to my process. I present to you: Sunsets & Synthetics.

Let’s be frank: my stepmother is human trash. She has always been, and she’ll always be. That’s just how life is. But I’ve got to admit that she’s outdoing herself today. ‘Cause, darn, she’s just told me, first thing in the goddamn morning, that I’m to be wed in a few hours’ time for the prosperity of the clan. That has the merit to be crystal clear, at least. Alright, sure. Fine. I can live with an arranged marriage. It’s not the worst thing she’s done. What’s not fine, though, is my spouse’s gender, age, and species. I want to make three points clear: 1. I’m not into men. 2. I’m not into older people. 3. I’m not into other species. Guess what? It appears my future partner is everything listed above. Male, old enough to be my ancestor, and a demon! ...Is it too late to run away?

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!

Araya Varrow spent years thinking that marrying the pack’s Alpha, Jasper Drevyn, would finally earn her a shred of dignity. Instead, it all blew up in her face. Jasper, proud as ever, shamed her in front of the whole pack, tossing her aside as if she meant nothing, wolf-less, unworthy, and pregnant with his child. Alone and exiled into the bitter cold, survival seemed like a lost cause. But destiny had other ideas. Just as her strength was giving out, Araya was found by Ronan Tharos, a Direwolf whose past is written in scars and whose gaze could melt stone. His methods are harsh, his temper sharp, but he pushes Araya harder than anyone ever has. Under Ronan’s relentless training, the wolf inside her finally roars awake—enormous, silver as the moon, and bound to an ancient prophecy. The child she carries isn’t merely a symbol of her old life; he’s the linchpin in a legend that could either heal the rift between wolves and Direwolves or plunge Drevalon into chaos. When word reaches Jasper that Araya is not only alive but thriving, he returns a shell of the man he once was—pleading at her feet for a second chance, willing to risk everything. But Araya is no longer the vulnerable woman he cast aside. She’s carved herself into a force to be reckoned with, standing at the head of her own pack, a Direwolf at her side, and a son whose power could shake the world. Now she stands at a crossroads: forgive the man who betrayed her, or embrace the wild Direwolf who taught her to fight for her future. In a realm where betrayal hits harder than any blow and the fires of prophecy burn hotter than revenge, Araya is ready to take her place at the top and make sure every last wolf who turned their back on her remembers her name.
