Alphas of Orion and their Unbroken Mate

(R-18 and dark themes, you have been warned.) Blurb: During my incarceration by my mate, I see a man leaning against the wall of the dungeon with his arms and legs coiled with heavy iron chains. Dressed only in tattered rags of a black robe his ghostly white skin is mostly on display. Tattoos like smoke crawl all the way from his neck to the side of his handsome and deeply chiselled face, but it's the eyes that have me in a trance. Deep red like the freshly spilt blood, such rich shade, and they stare directly at me with such intensity that I forget to breathe. My hand grabs the iron bar, and I steady myself as his curved lips move and he utters only one word to make my world crash and my magic lose control. “Mate!” My world shatters at his words. "You can see me?” He asks next, a voice calmer and yet deeper than Mariana Trench. It whispers all around me, murmuring against my skin as if trying to awaken something sleeping. “Yes, why shouldn't I be able to?” I question, slightly confused. A crease descends on my forehead. "No one else can," he answers with a wounded smile that wrecks my heart. Synopsis: In this post-apocalyptic world, Faes are hunted and killed mercilessly because they are blamed for the apocalypse that befell and destroyed half of the population. At 20, Amaia Zhāng is a Fae and is the last of her kind, or so she thinks. Her family and her whole village were massacred by the Dread Army in the name of keeping peace. She is the sole survivor and keeps her appearance cloaked. But she makes it her mission to train every day and become strong enough to avenge her kind. During a battle with a monster, her mate abandons and rejects her to save his life. Heartbroken, Amaia is left with no choice but to join Orion Academy. It is home to the greatest hunters and enforcers of her continent. It's a world where hunters and enforcers are treated like celebrities. She knows the training will help her fulfil her revenge plans and become a renowned hunter. And maybe along the way she will find another mate. But the twist of fate, deception and seduction from the man who is supposed to refer her to the Orion Academy leaves her with a curse and a tainted reputation. A curse which prevents her mate/mates from recognising her and prevents Amaia from informing them of who she is to them. As it turns out, Amaia is mated to hybrid Alphas of Orion, but none of them can feel the mate bond, and they believe she wants to seduce them. “Have some dignity, Amaia. You abandoned your mate and are now trying your seduction techniques on me. I have a fiancée.” Glares Alnilam, her first mate. “Don't look at me like that, lassie. I am saving myself for my mate.” Winks Alnitak, her second mate. “Stay away from me. You are not my mate,” scolds Mintaka, her third mate. “I will bring a garland constructed from your ex-mate's bones. How dare he hurt you?” Determination flashes in the eyes of Rigel, her fourth mate. Every time they turn her down and choose to be intimate with their chosen females, she feels every ounce of pain and hurt. Amidst the chaos and heartache in a place where enemies hide in plain sight. Can Amaia break this curse and have her mates recognise her as theirs? Does she have four mates or is there another twist hidden? Will she become a successful hunter and keep her identity hidden from the world and at the same time carry out her revenge? Read on to find out.

THE ONE WHO DEVOURS

Several years after Alastor’s arrival in Hell, something impossible happens. A second soul born in another world and carrying forbidden knowledge merges with the Radio Demon’s own essence. But instead of fighting for control, the two souls fuse and split again, creating a new being completely free from Rosie’s ancient contract. A new life. A new soul. A new name. Malrion Uroboros. The one who devours. While the Overlord Alastor continues his life undefeated and bound by Rosie’s pact, Malrion descends into the forgotten lower rings of Hell where no Overlord watches and Heaven cannot sense him. There, armed with knowledge from another world and a mind that sees the hidden laws of reality, Malrion invents the first cultivation technique Hell has ever known. He absorbs sin. He consumes pain. He devours the echoes of lost souls. And with every cycle, he rises beyond the limits Hell tries to impose. A secret organization is born in the shadows. A hidden power grows beneath the throne of Hell. And the balance between Heaven, Hell, and Overlords begins to shift all because one soul refused to be controlled.

Marvel: The God of Humanity

[Not a translation!] [Original Story!] [Leave ideas in the comments.] Kaiser, once regarded as the pinnacle of academic excellence in his area, was a diligent soul whose singular focus revolved around the pursuit of knowledge. He was a man who seemed to exist in a world dominated by textbooks and lectures, his life lived in the quiet solitude of study. Or at least, that was the lie that he made everyone believe. Kaiser was actually a nerd—a man who loved to dive straight into the world of fiction. One day, fate had other plans for him. Tragically, he met his end in the comforts of his apartment, as he concentrated on watching the anime of Saint Seiya. Upon his death, Kaiser was thrust into an endless void—an expansive realm where Nihility held dominion, and the concept of existence blurred into obscurity. It was within this haunting abyss that he stumbled upon an astonishing opportunity: a second chance at life. Through a series of bewildering events, he found himself reborn in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In this new existence, Kaiser took on the name Aspros and quickly discovered that his destiny far surpassed the ordinary. He was fated to ascend as the God of Humanity, the Supreme Emperor of the Human Pantheon, a title that would later gain grandeur and profound responsibility. Join this captivating journey as Aspros, the once scholarly Kaiser, navigates the tumultuous realms of power, morality, and humanity, carving a path toward his ultimate role as the guardian and ruler of mankind.

Eidolon.

Its the year 3947. One man awakens after centuries of deep slumber. Broken, Unstable, and Immortal. He tethers between life and death—haunted by ghosts of his past without rest. Gnawed by an Entity inside him that refused to be known. In this futuristic, post-apocalyptic story, we witness Ain's role transform from a tool of unbelievable carnage and destruction, into a man trying to find his way in a world that has moved past him without care. —————————————————————————What to expect———————————————————————— This story takes inspiration from certain aspects of the Warhammer 40k series, Lovecraft, and a touch of my own imagination. — Futuristic setting where most names from places, humans, all the way down to the magic system are heavily latin-inspired. — An immortal protagonist who has to constantly keep in check an unknown entity inside him for others' safety. — Slow-burn in some areas. (mainly for the protagonist and the people around him) — Distinct lead characters with their own unique personality and traits. — Fast-paced, anime-style combat scenes. — Tactical leadership and strategic combat with real stakes rather than solo power play fantasy. — Story starts slow (Actual fight scene doesn't happen until chapter 7), but will gradually pick up pace. Tense moments still happen in-between to keep the momentum going. —————————————————————What to look forward in the future————————————————————————— — Graphic violence, body horror, and psychological trauma. — Multiple love interests. — In-depth class and magic system.

He died thousands of times to the acid-drenched fangs of Spore Beasts and the lung-collapsing rot of cyclonic spore storms.
