When Ryujin wakes up in the video game he use to play, Espers of the World, he quickly realizes something terrifying: this isn’t a game anymore—it’s reality. Stripped of his identity and renamed Kaidren, he must now survive as a low-profile orphan with a mysterious past and a future controlled only by power. The world around him mirrors the game’s setting, yet the rules are no longer bound by code. The television works. The phone updates in real time. Events that never occurred in the original storyline unfold before his eyes. The NPCs? They’re real people now—with real emotions, real consequences, and real power. As Kaidren struggles to adapt, he’s haunted by memories of a trauma-stricken life and an overwhelming detachment from emotion. But the deeper he explores this so-called game world, the clearer it becomes—this reality is unpredictable, unscripted, and far more dangerous than he ever imagined. And to stay alive, he’ll have to confront what it means to be human... and what it means to be powerful. Because in this world, the line between player and pawn no longer exists.

**Infiltrate the Quinns. Gather intel. Exterminate them.* Go in. Get out. Simple. Well, not when you're thrown into a world with power hungry elites, hidden agendas and a girl who wasn't supposed to matter. Charlotte Quinn was meant to be just another target, another life snuffed out, another mission completed. And yet, she lingers. A quiet contradiction in a family of monsters, carrying their name but none of their cruelty. Killing her should have been effortless. A clean cut. A job well done. But I wavered. Now, I'm standing on a knife’s edge, caught between duty and something far more dangerous. The Order demands her death. The Quinns would rather see me buried. And Charlotte? She was never meant to be a part of this game. But neither was I. And in a world where blood is currency and loyalty is a lie, hesitation is the quickest way to die. ✧∘˚˳°｡☆∘˚˳°｡☆∘˚˳°｡✧ Zayn is an assassin. Precise, unfeeling, and damn good at his job. His latest mission? Assassinate Charlotte Quinn. It should’ve been simple. It wasn’t. Charlotte isn’t like the monsters he’s hunting. Killing her should be easy, but the longer he watches, the more the lines blur. One mistake, one moment of hesitation, and now he’s drowning in a web of secrets, deception, and the kind of chaos that should’ve never been his problem. The Order wants her dead. He was meant to obey. Instead, he broke the rules. And now blood spills where it shouldn’t. Bodies drop that were never meant to. The hunt has turned, and the predator is one step from becoming prey. It was supposed to be a clean job. But nothing ever is when you’re someone like Zayn.

Life is unpredictable, we don't know what will happen. Many wil said to enjoy the moment in life rather than making money all your life. If they ask you this what will you choose. It's a very hard question right? But this question makes us realize that we don't hold our lives. Only our Creator knows us.

But there’s one person who has always tested his limits: Adrian Quinn, his best friend and the only man who knows exactly how to push his buttons. Adrian is trouble wrapped in charm, all teasing grins and knowing touches. He plays with fire, blurring the lines between friendship and something far more dangerous.

Killian has made sure that every boyfriend Adrian has ever had vanishes. Not because he’s jealous, but because no one else is worthy of him. One lap sit, one lingering touch, and one too many smirks, Killian can’t ignore the heat between them anymore. But Adrian doesn’t just want to tease. He wants to break Killian’s control completely, to push him into something more than just desire. And Killian isn’t sure he can stop him.

In the world of the heavens, there are an elite few in history who transcend the word "genius." They rise through the ranks of cultivation with unparalleled speed, perform feats that defy common sense on a regular basis, and generally educate all who cross their path on just what it means for the difference between two cultivators to be as the difference between heaven and earth. This…is NOT their story. Xu Zuhui has never been considered a genius, or particularly talented, though no one would call him a failure either—no small feat in the cutthroat world of VRMMOs, the dominant form of entertainment on a dying Earth. Indeed, he is one of the lucky few to escape the terrible, ruined real world by uploading to a persistent virtual world based on the world of Cultivation. But though his new body and new life comes with substantial perks, he will soon discover there are substantial risks as well. He’s far from the only strong talent in this new world, and few such people are happy to welcome more into their ranks. In what was supposed to be a virtual world, Xu Zuhui will soon find that the stakes he’s fighting for are very real…and he’ll have to become very strong indeed to survive the events the real hero of this world will inevitably drag him into.

Melissa can’t see a thing… but that doesn’t stop her from getting into everything. She’s got white hair, a laugh that’s a little creepy sometimes, and a very particular way of walking straight into trouble. Uriel, on the other hand, doesn’t really know where he’s going. Or why everything around him feels like it’s about to fall apart—though he swears he’s fine. For some reason, they end up walking together. Sometimes in silence. Sometimes clashing. Sometimes wondering if the other is some kind of cosmic punishment. But slowly, without even realizing it, they start seeing through each other. A story about two people who have no idea what to do with their lives… but who, without meaning to, start giving meaning to each other’s.

They say time forgets. But some wishes are carved so deep into the soul that not even death can silence them. Ninety years after a forgotten war tore through the unseen boundaries of reality, Ren Kai is born—aloof, brilliant, beautiful, and utterly unaware that fate has been waiting for him. In the gleaming modern city of Lianhua, where everything moves fast and emotions are kept neatly beneath the surface, Ren Kai lives untouched by the chaos of the world. He has everything—wealth, reputation, a loyal circle of friends, and a quiet life shaped by solitude. But beneath the perfection lies a strange pull: toward an unfamiliar melody that haunts his dreams… a symbol that keeps appearing where it shouldn’t… and an unexplainable ache, as if something inside him is calling from another lifetime. Unknown to him, a century-old vow is awakening. A mentor cloaked in shadow waits for the right moment. A world long hidden stirs beneath the city’s glass towers. And a forgotten name burns at the edge of Ren Kai’s mind, whispering of who he once was—and what he was meant to do. As cracks begin to form between past and present, Ren Kai is drawn into a destiny larger than himself—one that will force him to choose: stay in the comfort of a life that was never truly his… or step into the storm of a forgotten legacy that could save or shatter the world. Because some wishes do not vanish. Some are reborn. And some—like his—were never meant to be silent.
