Rise Of Dragon

Zara_4827
They were never meant to meet. Twelve souls, each abandoned by fate, rejected by the world, and burdened by scars too deep to share. They come from different kingdoms, different races, and even different worlds. To everyone else, they are failures, monsters, burdens, or tools to be used. Yet destiny, or perhaps something far older, pulls them together. At first, they are nothing more than strangers forced to travel the same road. Trust is foreign to them. Every smile is questioned, every act of kindness met with suspicion. Each carries secrets capable of destroying not only themselves but entire kingdoms. The walls around their hearts have protected them for years, and none of them are willing to let those walls fall. But as battles are fought and impossible choices are made, the twelve slowly become more than companions. They become comrades. They become family. Together, they discover that the greatest strength is not magic, noble blood, or legendary weapons—it is having someone willing to stand beside you when the entire world turns against you. Yet peace is never meant for those chosen by destiny. An ancient truth buried beneath centuries of lies begins to awaken. Forgotten empires, forbidden powers, and a history deliberately erased from the world emerge from the shadows. The twelve soon realize that their tragic pasts are not isolated misfortunes but pieces of a single, carefully orchestrated mystery. Every loss they suffered, every betrayal they endured, and every person they loved was connected by a force determined to reshape the world. Among them is a girl born on Earth, torn from her true origin without knowing why. A prince from a distant kingdom who struggles every day just to survive the weight of his crown. His loyal knight, whose greatest wish is simply to protect the prince, even at the cost of his own life. A young man of unknown origin haunted by forgotten memories and a terrifying past. A princess imprisoned by the expectations of royalty. A cheerful musician whose songs hide unbearable loneliness. The fool everyone mocks, though he may be the wisest of them all. There is a princess who finds freedom through dance and melody, expressing emotions words could never capture. A slave twisted by years of cruelty, convinced he no longer deserves kindness. A brilliant young lady so disconnected from her own emotions that she struggles to understand what it means to love or grieve. Another princess who walks in harmony with nature itself, hearing the whispers of forests and beasts. And finally, a mysterious healer whose hands can mend wounds—but whose own heart remains broken beyond repair. As their journey continues, friendships deepen into unbreakable bonds. Some discover love in the darkest of times. Others lose the people they cherish most, learning that not every story is destined for a happy ending. Every victory demands sacrifice. Every secret uncovered forces them to question everything they once believed. Their greatest enemy is not merely an ancient evil waiting to return. It is the fear within themselves. To save the world, they must first confront the memories they have spent their lives running from. They must forgive the unforgivable, face truths that could shatter their identities, and decide whether destiny is something written by the gods—or something forged by their own hands. Together, they become each other's home. Together, they heal wounds no magic ever could. And together, they rise against a fate that sought to break them before they were ever born. In a world where kingdoms wage war, forgotten gods awaken, and ancient secrets threaten to consume civilization, twelve broken souls must prove that family is not defined by blood, but by the people who choose to stand beside you until the very end. Because legends are not born from heroes. They are born from outcasts who refuse to surrender.

The Duke's Unwanted Second Wife

**Mature Content** Eilika Wolanski is the eldest daughter of one of Varos’ most respected merchants, but respect has never brought her kindness. A childhood accident left a scar across her cheek, and with it, a cruel label she can never escape. The “Unwanted Woman” of Varos. Mocked in public, pitied in private, and treated like a blemish to be hidden, Eilika grows up learning one painful truth: beauty matters more than character in high society. So when an unexpected marriage proposal arrives from the powerful House of Kingsley, no one believes it is real. The groom is Damian Van Kingsley, the widowed duke of Varos, feared for his cold temperament and admired for his unmatched looks and wealth. Rumors follow him like shadows. He has a secret mistress, a broken heart drowned in alcohol, and worst of all… A son he barely acknowledges. For Eilika, marrying Damian isn’t a dream. It’s the only option left for survival. Damian, once the kingdom’s most desirable nobleman, has been nothing but a hollow man since the death of his first wife. He has abandoned his responsibilities, pushed away his child, and lived with one vow burning in his chest. He will never replace his first wife. To force him back into duty, his mother arranges a second marriage, one he never asked for, and one he refuses to accept. Damian swears he will never touch her , will never look at her and will never treat her as his wife. But Eilika isn’t the greedy noblewoman he expected. She doesn’t ask for his affection. She doesn’t crave his title. She doesn’t even want his love. What Eilika wants… is something far more dangerous. A family. And perhaps that is the very thing Damian has been starving for all along. ~~~~ “This bed will remain cold until your last breath.” Damian’s voice boomed through the dark chamber. Eilika didn’t flinch at his words. Instead, she replied gracefully, “I don’t seek love, Duke. You can visit your secret mistress every night… Just don’t come near me.” This marriage was never meant to become real, until the Duke's heart begins to betray its own rules.

My Tribrid System: More than a Monster

{69K words before locked] Fifty years ago, a shower of meteors descended from the skies. With them came a strange, colorful mist that wiped out ten percent of humanity and changed the world forever. Ten years later, the real nightmare began. From beyond the stars came the Abberants — massive, intelligent, ape-like creatures standing over nine meters tall. Stronger, faster, technologically superior, they declared themselves the rightful rulers of Earth and plunged humanity into a war it never asked for. On the brink of extinction, humanity survived only because of one miracle. Meta-Humans. Humans who awakened extraordinary abilities and pushed the Abberants back. Some shared their powers to protect mankind. Others hoarded them, turning strength into bloodline privilege. Ray Dawson was never one of them. At least, not at first. Just a boy with an ordinary life, working in secret to save enough money to buy an ability book and change his fate — without his mother ever knowing. The day his dream was supposed to come true, everything was taken from him. An Abberant attack left Ray with nothing but rage, grief, and a shattered future.

Hidden truths, internal human conflicts, and enemies far worse than beasts await beyond the battlefield.

Mahabharat: Shiva’s Last Variable

Himanshu was just an ordinary eighteen-year-old—an orphan scraping through life—until a heated argument about Karna and Arjuna became the last conversation he would ever have. Struck down by a god’s wrath for daring to question divine actions, his life ends abruptly… but not completely. Before his soul can fade into oblivion, he is summoned by Lord Shiva. Declaring that Himanshu’s death was unjust and premature, Shiva offers him a second chance—one bound not by mercy, but by purpose. A sacred duty awaits him in a world where Dharma is on the verge of collapse. Reborn in the era of the Mahabharata, Himanshu quickly realizes something is terribly wrong. The timeline exists. The kingdoms stand. The great war approaches. But the one who anchors destiny itself… Lord Krishna is missing. Without Krishna, the balance between Dharma and Adharma begins to shatter. Heroes waver. Villains rise unchecked. Fate itself grows unstable. Armed with three extraordinary boons—a mysterious system that rewards his actions, unnatural luck, and unmatched talent in all arts and combat—Himanshu steps into a story that was never meant to unfold this way. But in a world where destiny has lost its guide… Even the smallest change can birth unimaginable consequences. As he navigates alliances, alters events, and challenges the very will of the gods, Himanshu must confront a terrifying truth: Is he here to save this world… —or to decide if it deserves to be saved at all? ====================================== (Author note:) This story was a heavy A.U and all those characters belong's to the OG creator of the epic.
