Be The Anchor To My Striker

After a simple extraction mission, Kenneth makes a dire mistake that wipes out his entire team. Left alone and bleeding out, Kenneth has no choice but to pray to a higher being in hopes of getting a second chance at life. Luckily for him, his prayers are answered as he finds himself in the body of a man who has the same name as him! Now, faced with a strange world he is unfamiliar with, all he can do is follow the previous owners' wishes to enter the infamous military academy Toleran and become a renowned Anchor. The problem is finding a Striker to pair with. In comes Lucien Saint-James, the captain of the third division and a high-class Striker with whom he has the highest compatibility. The problem is, whenever Lucien is around, he gets this uncontrollable urge to bring him to his knees, not to mention that he doesn’t care for his arrogant attitude either. Now, Kenneth faces a dilemma. If he ever hopes to make it out of this academy alive and realize the dreams of the original Kenneth, he will have to suck up his pride and learn to hide his urges if he wants to make it out in one piece. Oh, and did he mention he had to deal with monsters and mystical beasts too?! ****************************************** Excerpt: “Kiss me.” Kenneth blinked. “What—“ “You heard me. Do it. Now.” Anger flashed in his eyes yet his body moved before his brain could tell him to stop. He reached for the Striker and their lips met. Kenneth poured his energy into Lucien, filling the barren pit inside his mind, giving him enough juice to keep going. The two pulled away, and Lucien’s steely eyes met his, holding him in place. “You always look like you hate anchoring me, but then you get that blissful look on your face that screams ‘I want more’. It’s cute.” Kenneth felt an unbearable urge to slap the smug smile off his face. But since now wasn’t the time to commit acts of violence against his pair. He held himself back. He would deal with him properly later. “Eat shit, captain.” Was all he said before sending him off. ****** A guideverse story with a little twist, hot and cold romance with a whole lot of slow burn (emphasis on burn because the MC refuses to admit his feelings, the stubborn fool). TW: Trauma, survival’s guilt, and violence

Project Faux

In a nation ruled by quiet control, the government doesn’t just eliminate threats— it rewrites them. Years ago, two siblings were discarded by that system, abandoned under the guise of state necessity. Forced to survive in the shadows, they grew up taking on dangerous, illegal work—learning how power really functions. And they never forgot who put them there. Revenge wasn’t a dream. It was a plan. Carefully constructed, piece by piece. The protagonist doesn’t aim directly for the top. He targets what connects to it. So when he infiltrates an elite gathering, it isn’t for a simple assassination. the son of a powerful government director—was never meant to be the final target. He was meant to be used. A way in. But the plan falters the moment they meet. He sees through him instantly—tearing apart his disguise, exposing his methods, and refusing to play the role assigned to him. Instead of becoming a pawn, he becomes something far more dangerous: An equal on the board. Because he knows things. Things he shouldn’t. Behind the government’s polished image lies a hidden system—one that abducts the world’s most dangerous individuals, erases their memories, and forces them into controlled environments known as “instances.” Places where identities are stripped. Where people are turned into experiments. Where the dead… don’t always stay dead. Officially, He is one of them. Declared dead. Erased from the public world. And yet— he stands ruins left by the god. Alive. Watching. Playing his own game. Realizing the scale of what he’s stepped into, the protagonist abandons patience. Instead of waiting, he accelerates his plan—launching an attack on a government facility tied to the system. It’s a move that was meant to seal his fate. Captured and “executed”, he becomes the epitome of punishment to those who desire . But the government doesn’t waste what it can use. His death isn’t an end. It’s a transition. When he awakens again, it’s not in the world he tried to destroy— but inside it. An instance. No memories. No identity. Only fragments. A lingering sense of purpose. A name he can’t recall. A sister he’s forgotten. And somewhere within the system— a man who was supposed to be a chess piece… but was never one to begin with. and a broad ear to ear grin

Ashes Under Neon Lights

In the frozen shadows of Moscow’s underworld, power is inherited through blood — and love is a liability. Artyom Sokolov was born rare. A rare Omega in a world ruled by dominance, hierarchy, and ruthless tradition. In Russia’s elite mafia society, rare Omegas are not cherished — they are bargained, controlled, or hidden. To his father, Artyom is not a son but a complication. An inconvenience that threatens political alliances and legacy. When Sergei Sokolov remarries and begins quietly stripping Artyom of his inheritance, it becomes clear: blood does not guarantee loyalty. But one reckless night changes everything. Viktor Volkov — heir to the most powerful and wealthiest mafia empire in the world — is not an Alpha. He is an Emigen. A genetic anomaly above dominance. Rare. Untouchable. Impossible to control. The Volkov empire commands oil fields, private armies, and governments alike. Their name is spoken carefully — if at all. And Viktor, raised to rule with cold precision, has never allowed instinct to outweigh strategy. Until Artyom. What begins as a single night of shared vulnerability ignites something neither of them can ignore — a biological pull that shakes centuries of hierarchy. When Artyom’s father is attacked and rival factions move to ignite a mafia war, one truth becomes dangerously clear: The fastest way to break an Emigen… is to target the rare Omega he cannot walk away from. Dragged into the heart of the Volkov empire, Artyom must navigate political betrayal, power struggles, and the terrifying realization that he is no longer unwanted — he is valuable. Desired. Claimed. As enemies close in and loyalty fractures from within, Viktor is forced to choose between control and instinct. Between empire and bond. Because in a world where dominance defines worth, loving a rare Omega is both a weakness… and the beginning of a dynasty.

I will be the perfect wife this time

​"Dear Father, you taught me how to be a monster. It is only fair that you are the one to taste my monstrosity." ​Olivia Luceron was the perfect tool for her father, the Duke of Tharon. For years, she played the role of the devoted daughter, acting as a spy within her own marriage to dismantle her husband’s power and surrender his secrets. Her reward for such loyalty? A cold dungeon, a mutilated body, and a walk of shame through the streets of the Imperial Capital. ​She died hating the man she once worshipped, and grieving for the husband she had systematically destroyed. Duke Matthias—the man she treated with nothing but icy indifference—was the only one who stayed faithful to her until his final breath. ​But death was not the end. ​When Olivia opens her eyes, she finds herself back in time, exactly one year before her tragic end. Her platinum hair is unblemished, her skin is free of scars, and the husband she betrayed stands before her once again—with those same cold eyes, devoid of any warmth. ​In this life, Olivia seeks neither forgiveness nor love; she has long since lost faith in both. She has only one purpose: to play the "Perfect Wife" to atone for her sins, while systematically annihilating the Tharon bloodline—the very lineage that turned her into a monster before discarding her. ​She will wear the mask of ice the world expects to hide a heart of fire. But as she navigates a world of lethal poisons and imperial intrigue, she realizes that the silent Duke she once ignored hides a truth far more deadly than the House of Tharon itself. ​The hunt has begun. And this time, Olivia is no longer the prey—she is the hunter.
