I had just finished one of the best games I have ever played, only to look up and find I was no longer in my room, but kneeling in the bloody sand of a colossal, sun-baked fighting arena. How did this happen? How did things go from playing a video game to being transported into the body of a background character within the game, who was exonerated and abandoned due to not having as much magical potential as the rest of the family? …A character who was doomed to die a very horrible death right at the beginning of the game?

Dr. Elias Vayne, a renowned archaeologist obsessed with lost civilizations, uncovers an ancient scroll that leads him to the barren heart of the desert. The scroll speaks of a forgotten empire, one that thrived in the shadows of history, ruled by god-like beings who granted their people unimaginable power—but at a terrible cost. Buried beneath the sands lies the key to their rise and eventual fall: a sealed tomb, hidden away for millennia, its entrance forgotten by time. Driven by the chance to rewrite history, Elias assembles a small team to unearth the secrets of this lost empire. But as they dig deeper, they begin to realize that some mysteries were never meant to be uncovered. Strange artifacts and cryptic symbols offer more questions than answers, while eerie dreams and whispered warnings haunt their every step. Inside the tomb, murals tell a story of a civilization at the height of its power, capable of controlling the very elements and bending reality itself. But the murals also depict the entity responsible for the empire’s downfall—a god-like being imprisoned within a black stone, locked away by those who feared the darkness it wielded. As Elias and his team venture further into the labyrinthine chambers of the tomb, the line between myth and reality begins to blur. The tomb itself seems alive, its ancient magic stirring as they disturb its long-forgotten secrets. With each new discovery, the entity within the stone grows closer to awakening, and Elias must confront the terrifying possibility that by unlocking the past, they may have unleashed an unspeakable force that could bring about the destruction of the modern world. The Sleeper Beneath is a dark, atmospheric exploration of obsession, power, and the dangers of delving too deep into the unknown. As Elias’s quest for knowledge spirals into a nightmare, he must decide whether to stop the entity’s awakening—or embrace the power it offers, even at the cost of his soul.

In a modern world veiled by shadows and steeped in secrets, ordinary lives are but mere illusions. Beneath the surface, dark forces stir, waiting for the opportune moment to consume all. Caught in this sinister underbelly is Alex Walker, a downtrodden young man living a life of despair and monotony. Alex's fate takes an unexpected turn when he stumbles upon a mystical artifact, the Blood Rune, and is bestowed with a chilling power: hemomancy—the control of blood. This arcane system within him grants him access to a blood-soaked world hidden from the eyes of ordinary mortals. However, this newfound gift comes with a sinister twist. Alex is now bound to a sinister, enigmatic entity known as the "Crimson Specter," a malevolent presence that hungers for power and revels in suffering. As he navigates this treacherous path, Alex realizes that his every action has consequences, and the line between hero and villain becomes increasingly blurred. To survive in this dark and perilous realm, Alex must harness his hemomantic abilities to combat grotesque abominations, ruthless cabals, and power-hungry sorcerers who seek to exploit his unique gifts. Alongside him is an unlikely group of allies, each harboring their own secrets and dark pasts. As Alex delves deeper into the twisted world of hemomancy, he uncovers a web of ancient conspiracies, forgotten bloodline legacies, and a prophecy that foretells the end of humanity. With the Crimson Specter's influence growing stronger, Alex must make impossible choices, confront his inner demons, and ultimately decide whether to be a savior or a harbinger of doom. In "The Scarlet Gift," a tale of dark fantasy, horror, and sacrifice unfolds in a modern world where blood is both a weapon and a curse. Alex Walker's journey will test his limits, as he grapples with the morality of his powers and battles for the very survival of a world teetering on the edge of darkness.

[A/N: No smut. Moderate pacing, with a slight lean toward fast pacing to keep the story sharp and avoid dragging. Romance is secondary] ___ I transmigrated into a slow-paced action romance fantasy novel. You know the type. A naïve, righteous protagonist with a growing harem, invasive creatures to slaughter, a God to kill, and a guaranteed happy ending. And then there was the Mob villain. The jealous, exiled half-brother who goes full psycho, challenges the protagonist… and gets killed by his own fiancée. Yeah. That villain was me, Caelir Vayne. But everything changed when I awakened the SSS class and three op skills. Cloning. Copy. Fusion. “…Wait. Isn’t this a little too overpowered?” But something’s wrong. Why isn’t the plot following the story? Why are events spiraling out of control? And worst of all… Why is my fiancée, the girl who killed me in the original story, now staring at me like I’m the only thing that exists? Hold on. They have a word for this kind of behavior. “…Don’t tell me... she’s a yandere?” ------------ I recommend reading all the free chapters first before deciding whether to continue or leave the novel. Trust the process. The story is planned, and the payoff is worth it. ... Disclaimer: This work is a piece of fiction. Any resemblance between characters and real individuals is purely coincidental.

In a desolate and ancient castle atop a hill, Prince Kael's world shatters when his beloved wife, Princess Elara, is brutally murdered. Consumed by grief and madness, he turns to dark powers to resurrect her. Desperate to reunite with his lost love, he makes a sinister pact with the old god Zol'fun. With a haunting melody, Kael lures his loyal maids into the throne room, offering their blood and souls in exchange for the power to bring Elara back. As Kael's ritual unfolds, the castle becomes a nexus of darkness, its walls whispering secrets of the malevolent magic within. With each sacrifice, Kael's power grows, transforming him into a vessel of Zol'fun's ancient malevolence. Yet, the cost of his power weighs heavily on his soul, and his very essence darkens. The once-pure halls become tainted by the shadowy power that Kael wields. Rumors spread, and fear infects those who remain in the castle. Unbeknownst to Kael, a group of villagers, bound by terror and armed with ancient lore, rise to challenge his dominion. The stage is set for a battle between light and darkness, as Kael's reign clashes with the resistance's determination to reclaim their land. In the midst of the conflict, the reborn prince's malevolence becomes a force that threatens to consume everything. The resistance rallies against him, their courage and resilience standing strong against his dark power. As the fate of the land hangs in the balance, the tale unfolds as a haunting symphony of sacrifice, power, and the unyielding spirit of those who dare to challenge the shadows. "Crimson Requiem" is a tale of forbidden magic, the allure of power, and the indomitable strength of the human spirit in the face of darkness.

Nirn, 4th era 181. Twenty years before the events of the elder scrolls: Skyrim take place. Alexander Drake died on earth and was reborn into this strange world with an equally unusual sword and a status screen with but a single goal initially, Survive. {Author note: The elder scrolls and all it's inclusive content is the property of Bethesda and not mine.}

Yuuta Konuari was the weakest, most average guy on Earth. Barely scraping through college. Working a part-time job. Growing up in a quiet orphanage with no family to call his own. Life was simple. Predictable. Lonely. Then fate played a cruel game. One night, he dreamed of a woman. A stunning, powerful Dragon Queen from another world and he slept with her. The dream felt so real that he woke breathless, but he convinced himself it was nothing. Just his lonely mind playing tricks. He forgot about it. He moved on. He continued living in silence for Five year. Until she showed up in his room. Erza, the Dragon Queen, crossed worlds to find him. She brought a child with silver hair, tiny wings, and red eyes that looked exactly like his. A little girl who called him "Papa." She gives him one year. One year to prove himself worthy of being her mate. One year before she kills him for tainting the royal bloodline. Yuuta should be terrified. He is terrified. But he has never had a family before. And Elena with her wagging tail, her boundless curiosity, and her absolute certainty that Papa can fix anything has already claimed his heart. On the surface, this is a story about a mortal man who somehow won the heart of an ice queen. A slice-of-life romance about cooking, dancing, and learning to be a family. It is warm. It is tender. It is the kind of story that makes you believe love can conquer anything. It is not. Beneath the surface, something else lurks. A secret buried in Yuuta's blood. A past he was forced to forget. A truth that connects him to the very monsters hunting them. The scars on his back are not from childhood accidents. The nightmares that wake him screaming are not random. And the woman who swore to kill him is beginning to realize that the mortal she despises is not the villain she imagined. He is the victim. The forgotten son. The boy who was never meant to exist. As enemies close in from both worlds, Yuuta must uncover the truth of his origin before it destroys everything he loves. He does not have magic. He does not have power. He has only his hands, his heart, and the stubborn refusal to let go. He doesn't need to be a hero. He just needs to hold on. But holding on may cost him everything.
