Unnamed Marriage Swallowed by Darkness
"WHOOSH!"The air around Alina felt like it was being sucked away, creating a hollow vortex that pulled her into darkness. She fell, sliding into an endless void, her hands groping desperately, searching for a hold, for something real. But there was nothing, just emptiness that continued to pull her deeper, further from the world she knew."Help... can anyone hear me?" Alina's voice was small and fragile, lost in the shadows that swirled wildly around her, obscuring every trace of light.Then—"CRACK!"Something shattered in the darkness, a thunderous cracking sound, breaking the chilling silence. The shadows began to move, wrapping around her body like the living roots of an ancient tree, cold and rough, crawling on her skin like maggots."AAAAARGH!" Alina screamed, a piercing pain, as if something was piercing her skin, crawling inside her, changing her from within."You are not the Alina you once were." The voice whispered again, faceless, sourceless, just a cold voice that flowed
Unnamed Marriage The Successor
"THUMP-THUMP-THUMP!"Alina's breath hitched, mingling with the sound of her footsteps pounding the wet ground.The night air pierced her skin, bone-chillingly cold, yet sweat drenched her temples. Behind her, the heavy footsteps and strange growls continued to follow, echoing among the towering trees."GRRRAAAUUUGHHH!"A wild roar echoed throughout the forest, making Alina's hair stand on end.The creature was still relentlessly chasing her.Her eyes frantically searched for a way out of the forest that felt like an endless labyrinth. The giant trees towered with thick roots that tangled her steps, branches swaying like invisible hands seemingly wanting to grab her.Above, the moon was faintly visible behind the dark mist that enveloped the night sky.She couldn't stop.Something inside her whispered, "If you stop, you die.""Come on, Alina... keep running."But her body began to rebel. Her muscles ached, her lungs burned.Then—"CRACK!"Her foot caught on a root protruding from the g
Unnamed Marriage Back
Alina's steps felt heavy as she passed through the towering iron gates, the barrier that separated the outside world from the grand house that was now her home. The mansion stood firm atop a hill, surrounded by vast gardens filled with exotic flowers that resembled a mysterious forest more than a well-kept garden. Tall pillars supported the façade of the classical-modern structure, while large glass windows reflected the moonlight, creating the illusion of shifting shadows behind them.As she crossed the threshold, the scent of lavender and sandalwood filled the air—soothing, yet carrying an inexplicable sense of unease. The white marble floor gleamed like a mirror, reflecting the high ceiling adorned with sparkling crystal chandeliers. Long hallways stretched endlessly, leading her deeper into a labyrinth of blurred memories. Large paintings lined the walls, portraying unfamiliar faces that stared at her with hollow eyes—faces that felt eerily familiar.It felt like walking among the
Unnamed Marriage The Past
Darren’s bite felt like searing embers burrowing beneath Alina’s skin, spreading a sharp sting that made her shiver. Her breath hitched, vision blurring. She struggled with all her might, but Darren’s grip was unyielding. The world spun around her, and her body slowly lost balance.Then—“ENOUGH!”The voice thundered, piercing the silence of the cave like lightning tearing through a quiet night.From the shadows emerged a man cloaked in black. He was tall, broad-shouldered, and exuded a chilling aura that rippled through the air. His eyes glowed red like coals burning with ancient vengeance. Without a word, he raised one hand, and a surge of dark energy shot toward Darren—BOOOM!Darren was flung against the cave wall, groaning as his body collided with stone with a sickening THUD.But he rose quickly. Fury and hatred filled his eyes. “Who are you?!” he hissed, seething.The man smirked, his chuckle soft yet piercing. “I am the one who restores Alina’s destiny.”Darren sneered, bitter
Unnamed Marriage Not Yet Over
Alina tore through the jungle, her primal instincts guiding each step. Crack. Every broken twig, every whispering breeze carried a question. Her mind swirled, fragments of memory surging up like dark waves. Betrayal gnawed at her trust. A smoldering hatred burned in her soul.She reached the ruins of an ancient building, now blanketed in moss and tangled vines. The air hung thick with gloom. A chill crept down her spine.This is where you died, whispered a voice deep within her.Among the crumbling stones, shards of a mirror lay scattered across the mossy floor. Her heart pounded—thump-thump. Is this the broken mirror they spoke of?She picked up a piece. Its surface was foggy, coated with dust.The moment her fingers brushed the cold glass—zzzzzzt!—a surge of vision struck her. She saw herself, eyes glowing crimson, locked in a deadly gaze with another figure. Darren.Not with tenderness, but with hatred.He stabbed her.Not with fangs, but with a gleaming silver dagger under the moo
Unnamed Marriage Other Name
The sound of knocking and shouting from outside the room shattered the tense silence. Darren and Alana exchanged anxious glances, leaving Alina frozen in place, still reeling from the awakening of her newfound power. The door creaked open, revealing an old man in a faded but neatly kept servant’s uniform. His wrinkled face bore the sharp gaze of someone who had seen too much.“Master Darren, Mistress Alana,” the servant said, his voice laced with concern. “There’s… an uninvited guest at the main gate.”Darren scoffed in irritation. “Who is it this time? We’re not in the mood for visitors.”“They insist on seeing the lady… one of the ladies,” the servant replied, his eyes flickering briefly to Alina with an unreadable expression.Alina felt the weight of his stare—it wasn’t just the respectful gaze of a servant to his master. There was caution there… maybe even recognition?“Tell them to leave,” Alana snapped. “We don’t have time for strangers.”“I tried, ma’am,” the old man replied, s
Unnamed Marriage Lyra's Secret Passage
Following Thomas through the secret door behind the bookshelf, Alina felt her heart pound. The narrow, dark passage felt cold and damp, the stuffy air carrying the scent of dust and decaying wood. Thomas's steps were firm but hurried, as if time was no longer on their side."This passage used to be used by the family to escape if there was danger," Thomas whispered without looking back. "Only a few know about it."Alina continued to follow, her mind in turmoil. If she was truly Lyra, why did Darren and Alana insist on calling her Alina? Why were they hiding her true identity? And what great secret was Darren hiding, which now felt increasingly real as this lie unraveled?The passage ended at a wooden door that was sturdier than the first. Thomas carefully opened it, revealing a spiral staircase descending steeply. The commotion from above grew louder, Seraphina's shouts and the sound of hurried footsteps echoing throughout the house."We have to be quick," urged Thomas, starting to de
Unnamed Marriage Purebred
A searing violet light momentarily blinded everything in the forest. Darren and Alana staggered backward, their hands raised to shield their eyes. The monstrous creatures hissed angrily, their bodies visibly trembling under the impact of the mysterious energy. Sssshhh! Grrr!Alina herself felt a strange sensation coursing through her entire body. The power felt alien yet familiar, as if she had used it in a forgotten past. Vague memories of a glowing hand and the pained roars of enemies flickered through her mind. Wush! Aaaargh!When the light subsided, the forest looked slightly different. Several trees around Alina appeared blackened as if burned at their trunks. The creatures retreated a few steps, their red eyes showing a newfound wariness and fear."What... what was that?" Alana whispered, her voice trembling, staring at Alina in horror.Darren remained silent, his face ashen. The silver dagger in his hand seemed to vibrate. He looked at Alina as if seeing a ghost. Krrr..."Lyra.

Illusions in the Jungle of Nightmares
Criiiet... criiet... The dry branches clawed at the sky, like wrinkled fingers reaching upward, and the shadows seemed to devour the last rays of sunlight, turning the once-mesmerizing forest into something gloomy and terrifying. The stench of wilted flowers pierced our noses, replacing the exotic fragrance that had once enchanted us. Cold, mocking laughter echoed among the trees, as if the forest itself was laughing at how powerless we were.“It’s a trap!” Darren shouted, his eyes darting around to watch the shadows that seemed to move on their own. He quickly stuck close to Lyra, ready to protect her.“We can’t trust anything in this place,” Seraphina muttered, her sword gleaming with caution in her hand. The illusion of beauty we had seen had vanished, leaving only unease and deep mistrust.Lyra clutched the family journal tighter, its golden glow warm and steady amidst the darkness of the illusion. “We have to stay together and focused. Don’t let fear take over.”Suddenly, horrify
Insane Clash in the Underground Hell
Ucok peeked from behind a cracked concrete wall, his breath heavy. His head was slightly bleeding, but that wasn’t what panicked him.“Bro... we’ve only got four bullets left. The enemies? Like holiday discounts—coming in groups!” he whispered to Rizal, who was wiring a homemade detonator out of a broken wall clock.“Relax. They don’t know we’ve got a little surprise,” Rizal replied coldly, then chuckled, “...and a big one: a bomb made from my grandpa’s wall clock.”BOOM!A small explosion echoed from afar. Not the bomb. Turns out Ucok had accidentally triggered a music player.“Dude... that’s a ringtone! Who the hell plays Rhoma Irama during a battlefield!?”Two Hours Earlier...They had infiltrated through an old sewer behind Denpasar market. The entrance to the enemy’s secret base wasn’t in some elite place—it was beneath a bird shop.“New symbol of power: not helicopters, but chirping birds,” Nova quipped while turning on her flashlight.Maya led the way, holding a tablet showing
The Dreamwood Trials
Wuuush! Wuuush! The Wind Sovereigns soared alongside Lyra, Darren, Maeve, and Seraphina as they crossed the endless expanse of the desert. The wind, once threatening, now felt like a gentle breeze offering comfort. Zephyr flitted joyfully around them, occasionally recounting tales of the beauty of their world before the arrival of the Dark Miners."There used to be a lake here that shimmered like a jewel," Zephyr said, pointing to the vast stretch of sand. "Lightflowers bloomed along its edges, and the sound of waterfalls echoed sweetly in the distance."Lyra imagined the lost beauty, feeling the sorrow of the Wind Sovereigns. "We’ll help you restore it," she said with resolve. "After we complete our mission, we’ll return and help you."Stormwing, flying at Lyra’s side, nodded solemnly. "We will await your promise, pilgrims."The journey across the desert felt swifter and safer with the help of the Wind Sovereigns. They guided the group along the safest routes, avoided sudden sandstor
The Guardians of the Eternal Sands
Swiing! Swiing! Maeve and Seraphina's swords gleamed under the dim green light as they swiftly dodged the wild attacks of the Guardian of the Mine, who was rampaging. The creature swung its massive claws, striking the rocks and earth with such force that it shook the cavern. Boom! Boom! Dust and pebbles flew through the air."He’s really angry!" Seraphina shouted, leaping backward to avoid another spray of green liquid vomited by the Guardian of the Mine. Swoosh! Zing! The liquid struck the wall behind them, leaving a scorched, smoking mark."We need to find its weak point!" Maeve shouted, continuing her assault with her sword, trying to pierce the black skin of the creature. However, their attacks seemed futile, leaving only small scratches that were ineffective.Darren, although his energy shield had weakened when he distracted the Guardian of the Mine, reinforced it again, protecting Lyra and Zephyr who were still near the destroyed drilling machine.Lyra observed the Guardian of t
The Mine Guardian's Fury
"Grrrrr..." The Mine Guardian roared furiously at their arrival, its voice echoing throughout the cave filled with an eerie green light. Its glowing red eyes glared at them with pure hatred, and its massive body shifted restlessly, ready to attack."Disgusting creature," Maeve muttered, drawing her sword with a look of disgust mixed with wariness. "No wonder the land above is like this.""We have to stop it before it produces more dark crystals," Darren said, preparing to deploy an energy shield."Zephyr, can you find a way to stop that drilling machine?" Lyra asked quickly, her eyes fixed on the giant machine that continued to whir and emit black crystals.The small fairy nodded rapidly. "I'll try! This machine looks very old and fragile in some parts!" Zephyr then flew nimbly towards the giant drilling machine, avoiding the Mine Guardian's menacing movements.While Zephyr tried to stop the machine, Lyra, Darren, Maeve, and Seraphina prepared to face the Mine Guardian. The creature l
Into the Veins of Shadow: Unearthing the Source
Creak... creak... Their footsteps crunched on loose gravel and dust within the dark and damp mine tunnel. The stench of rusted metal, grimy oil, and something rotten assaulted their nostrils, causing them to wrinkle their noses in disgust. The dim light emanating from Lyra's family journal was their sole guide through the suffocating blackness. The distant thrum of a drilling machine and the trickling of an unknown liquid added to the gloomy and menacing atmosphere of this place."This place is revolting," Seraphina whispered, her hand instinctively tightening on the hilt of her sword. The air felt heavy, thick with an aura of greed and decay."These Miners truly have no respect for nature," Maeve muttered, her eyes darting warily around every shadowy corner of the winding tunnel. The walls looked fragile, supported by rough-hewn timbers that appeared precariously placed."We need to be careful. Zephyr said this place is riddled with traps," Darren cautioned, walking ahead of Lyra and
Whispers in the Wastes: An Alliance Forged
"Ancient power older than Nyx?" Stormwing echoed Lyra's words, his brow furrowed in thought. The wind around him stirred gently, mirroring his confusion. The other Wind Lords exchanged glances, their expressions equally perplexed."Yes," Lyra replied, nodding earnestly. "The Keepers of the Nexus warned us of this threat. A power that could consume all of reality if left unchecked.""And you believe we, the Wind Lords confined to this dying desert, can aid you against such a formidable force?" a female Wind Lord asked, a hint of cynicism lacing her tone, though a flicker of curiosity danced within it."You possess incredible power over the winds," Darren interjected eagerly. "Your speed and strength could be invaluable assets in battle.""More than that," Zephyr chimed in, flitting closer to Lyra. "I sense a deep connection between you and the natural world, as we once had. Perhaps... together we can restore the lost balance to this world and the universe."Stormwing fell silent for a
The Secret Behind the Sandstorm
"Huh... A little windy? They almost blew us back to the Nexus!" Maeve exclaimed, roughly brushing dust off her cloak."Shhh... Be patient, Maeve," Darren whispered, looking at Zephyr with curiosity. The little fairy seemed sincere, even though she stood between them and the clearly hostile Wind Lords.Lyra gave Zephyr a small smile. "Thank you for helping us. We were indeed lost and are looking for a way to continue our journey.""You are looking for a way? A way to where?" asked Stormwing, one of the largest Wind Lords, his voice rumbling like an approaching sandstorm. His glowing eyes stared at Lyra suspiciously."We have important business beyond this world," Lyra replied carefully, not wanting to reveal too much information."What business could be more important than the law of the Wind in our land?" Stormwing retorted with a challenging tone. The wind around him began to swirl again, indicating his displeasure."Stormwing, they mean no harm," Zephyr interjected with a clear but
Whispers of the Wind in the Sands of Eternity
Whoosh! They stepped out of the shimmering portal, feeling the scorching heat sear their skin and fine grains of sand swirl against their faces. The sunlight blazed from an cloudless blue sky, reflecting off the undulating expanse of golden dunes that stretched as far as the eye could see. The air was dry and mineral-scented, a stark contrast to the dampness of the Eternal Mist Realm."Haaah... This heat pierces right through you," Seraphina complained, her hand moving quickly to fan her face."It's like being inside a giant furnace," Maeve murmured, her eyes squinting behind a hand that shielded her gaze. She observed their surroundings warily, searching for any signs of danger amidst the monotonous landscape.Lyra felt the warmth of the sand creep over her sandals, a contrast to the cold cave stones and the damp mist they had just left behind. The family journal in her hand pulsed softly, its golden light seeming brighter under the blazing sun, as if it relished the energy of life t
