I can't move on

Chloe_Bryant
Twenty-one-year-old Ryder Callahan is a misunderstood high school dropout with a reputation for being a delinquent. Getting suspended countless times from high school and, in the end, just dropping out. The only things that seem to interest him are smoking and knitting, a hobby he picked up from his late grandmother. Despite his rough outer shell, Ryder is loyal to his family and helpful around the house (when he isn’t high), qualities his mother loves and that are the only reason his parents haven’t kicked him out yet. One day, Ryder finds himself in a situation where, while indulging in his usual routine of smoking and knitting in a secluded corner of a park near his house, he sees a brutal altercation between rival gangs that leaves him confused as fuck. Little does he know, his presence didn’t go unnoticed. Dominic Caruso, the notorious mafia boss known for his ruthless killings and fearsome reputation, catches wind of Ryder’s testimony about the crime. Initially angered by the potential threat to his whole way of life, Dom’s curiosity is piqued when he learns more about the young man. Despite the empire he has built himself into, Dom is intrigued by Ryder’s indifference to the danger he’s stumbled upon and his unconventional hobbies, and he can’t get enough. He wants him. He needs him. And he’s going to get him one way or another.

Demons Among Gods

A reckless Earth adventurer (also a gamer) dies and is reborn in Celestia—a stunning, dangerous world filled with powerful creatures, diverse races, extraordinary beings, and formidable warriors and mages.   Eric finds himself in a countryside orphanage with barely any recollection of his current family's whereabouts. He also unexpectedly discovers that a mysterious girl silently inhabits him.   During his soul's journey from Earth to his birthplace, a strange injury occurred, splitting his essence and creating a second soul inside him—this girl.   This girl (a unique soul mutation) lacks the ability to physically intervene in the world, but her unique nature grants capabilities beyond anyone's comprehension.   In this world, all Mana Wielders, Beasts, and Creatures have their strength measured by their Ranks and four basic stats. No one in history has ever reached the peak of their Rank's stats. Thus, no one could fathom what lies at its zenith.   Yet, due to this split soul, Eric now gains the ability to reach that peak. When he maxes his each stat at Rank 1, the powers he unlocks defy his wildest imagination.   ---   **Author's Note:**  **Expect:**   1. **OP Protagonist**—OP doesn't mean the most powerful in the world. He must grind toward it at each Rank.   2. **Epic Battles**—Cataclysmic clashes, destruction, terrifying powers, formidable foes and beasts. (Not in early arcs.)   3. **Playful Protagonist**—Jokes internally but ruthlessly sharp when needed.   4. **Harem**—It will not be excessive.   5. **Powerful Lovers/Companions**—Capable harem members who fight alongside him, not to be sidelined.   6. **Epic Adventures**—Emotional and intriguing quests/missions/story (Witcher/Elder Scrolls vibes). Adventure begins in Arc 4.   **Warning:** Humor, Gore, horror, occasional mature content.    --- Read 40 Chapters Ahead https://www.patreon.com/Asura009 ---

Hollywood: Lights, Ink, Entertainment!

Synopsis : Transmigration. The word still hit Regal like a cold splash of water - a reminder of how his old life, against all his wild imagination, had ended in the least cinematic way possible. No heroic sacrifice. No tearful goodbyes. Not even a poetic monologue. Just… poof. Lights out, curtains down, and show over. Yet, here he was, still alive. Regal Seraphsail - same name, same dreams, but in a world fourteen years into the past. New packaging, though. It was December 2009, in a world that was almost - but not quite - Earth. Then, there was The System. It rewarded him with skills, scripts, and creativity, all tailored to help him become the greatest storyteller this world had ever seen. For Regal, it was the perfect tool. Because, with or without it, Regal’s singular dream had always been cinema - and he will achieve it this time. From writing world-changing stories to directing films that redefined the industry, Regal was determined to become the biggest figure Hollywood had ever seen. His first step? Penning a book called<Harry Potter>and watching it take the world by storm. ===== Points to be noted: - This is a Parallel World. With different people, different backgrounds, and different ages. So, expect plenty of unexpected surprise cameos of celebrities. - No Harem (OC Female Lead). - The MC is not a money driven person, but he understands the practical need for success to bring his visions to life. - Don’t expect an overly realistic portrayal of Hollywood’s dark side, other issues, or any overly grim themes. - I am here to write a fun and entertaining story, not to delve into anything beyond that or political themes. ===== If you are enjoying the story and want to read early chapters, consider supporting me on Patreon! –> [email protected]/OrgoWriters . I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad, AO3, and ScribbleHub. ….
