Defying the Fate of Beheading

Crimson Echoes
Louis, a working man, after dropping dead from overwork, unexpectedly travels to the Star Continent, where gods roam and hundreds of races stand, becoming the first emperor in the history of the Ense Empire to ascend to the throne as a prince with a foreign surname. At this moment, the Imperial Capital is an ocean of laughter, to which he has made an indelible contribution. Because the revolutionary army is escorting him to the guillotine. As the trapezoidal blade falls, he ends his headless life... or so it should have been. But when he wakes up again, he returns to the moment just before he becomes a prince, with the diary he carried before his death also coming back with him. It records his future. But he doesn't know that Olivia, the Second Princess of the Ense Empire, has just been reborn, too...

Rise of the Primimials

Three siblings. One prophecy. A destiny older than the world itself. In the realm of Elysmyr, every soul is woven into the living Loom of Destiny, where countless threads bind together the past, the present, and the futures yet to be born. Most live their lives never questioning the pattern that guides them. But when tragedy tears apart the Magus family, Camilia Isis Magus, Percy Atlas Magus, and Elysia Celeste Magus are scattered by grief, betrayal, and the weight of secrets buried long before their births. As they struggle to reunite, each begins awakening an ancient inheritance tied not to kings or gods, but to the primordial currents itself. Their paths intertwine with mysterious companions—each guiding them toward truths that threaten to rewrite everything they believe about themselves. Yet the deeper they journey into Elysmyr's prestigious academies, noble houses, forgotten ruins, and hidden wars, the more they realize that their reunion was never a matter of chance. Powerful forces have been watching, ancient enemies are beginning to stir, and a prophecy long believed forgotten is awakening once more. Now, with the fate of their family hanging by a thread, the siblings must decide whether to surrender to the paths written for them... or weave a new future with their own hands. Because sometimes destiny is not a prison. And the Power of Three will decide all.

The Equinox Protocol

This work is 100% mine—if you try to copy it, the system might just send a task to find you! No stealing, no reposting. If you like it, share the love, not the content! Nash Daniel Pierce, a second-year Computer Science student in New York City, has always played life safe—good grades, a clear-cut future, and an endless cycle of coursework. But when a cryptic email from Equinox Systems appears in his inbox, everything changes. The email grants him access to Equinox-00, an advanced system designed to push him toward success through structured tasks. Skeptical but intrigued, Nash downloads it onto his phone, only to be met with a cold, impersonal AI issuing its first directive: Attend a hackathon, connect with three professionals, and secure a freelance job within a week. The rewards? Money, skills, and an edge in his career. The penalty? System restrictions that could hinder his progress. As Nash follows the system’s relentless guidance, he realizes it’s more than just a tool—it’s a force shaping his future, one challenge at a time. But with every task completed, a deeper question emerges: Who created The Equinox Protocol, and why was he chosen? Disclaimer: The picture used in this novel does not belong to me.
