One-Night-Stand

Seventeen years of humiliation. One night of blood. And a legacy that should have stayed buried. Axton Vail thought he was nothing a powerless mistake in a world ruled by cultivation. Until his own family chained him to an altar to harvest his blood. The ritual failed. The seal broke. And the last heir of the Immortal War God woke up. Now, with god-killing power burning through his veins and enemies closing in from every shadow, Axton faces an impossible choice: become the monster they always feared he was, or find a way to stay human while the world tears itself apart trying to end him. In a city where power is everything and blood determines destiny, one boy will learn that the deadliest weapon isn't cultivation it's a war god who refuses to kneel. The hunt has begun. And this time, the prey has teeth.

Axel is a trained demon hunter who came to Jakarta with one single mission: to wipe out every creature that strays beyond the bounds of humanity. Rules drilled into him since childhood have taught him to see the world in nothing but black and white—until he meets Rena, the shadow mage who was supposed to be his target. Their first encounter ends in a deadly fight that Axel fails to finish, and what follows becomes a long chase that leads him to an unexpected truth. Rena is nothing like the threat he was told she is. She is just another survivor fighting to stay alive and protect those around her. As understanding slowly grows between them, the organization that raised Axel learns what he has found. He is branded a traitor, Rena is labeled a dangerous instigator, and both are now hunted by the very people Axel once called comrades. Their only chance to survive is to cross into the shadow realm, a place with no guarantee of ever returning. Now Axel must choose: cling to the rules he has always followed, rules built on lies, or stand beside the only person who never asked him to be just a weapon.

As Liam secretly grows stronger, dark forces begin to move, rivals who fear him, and a prophecy that calls him the Echo Chosen, the one who will either save Valecross... or destroy it. When monsters from the Rift return to devour the academy, Liam must decide: Embrace the Shadow System, or let the same monsters that took his family make him lose everything.

I remember the day everything burned like a wound that would never heal. Flames stole my family — my parents were ripped from me, my little brothers and sisters turned to ash — all because debts bled our name dry. They came in the night with torches and cold mouths, set our home alight, and watched the world I knew collapse into smoke. When I thought the world had taken its last piece of me, something — someone — stepped through the blaze. I could not tell if it was man or woman; the fire kept the savior's shape blurred and holy, as if the flames themselves had given birth to a protector. They pulled me from the ruin and vanished like a promise. For seven years I answered a different kind of fire. I joined the army and let the drill and the discipline burn the broken parts clean. My hands learned steel. My bones learned marching. My nights learned keeping watch. I learned how to turn pain into armor, sorrow into strategy. I was forged in training fields and battle lines until a new name fit me. I am Kaelor Thane now — not a child who once cried over ash, but a force that arrives on the war road without apology. They called me the God of War because I learned to move like thunder and strike like winter. I carry no mercy in my pocket; I carry only the weight of a debt to be settled. Those who think they can stand between me and what I owe will learn the hard truth: I do not forgive. I do not forget. I return to make the ledger even, and I will make them pay in ruin, pain, and a silence that remembers my name.

"How could you do this Gracia?!" Harvey yelled. "Who's this young man, how dare he interrupt our moment?" The man she was making out with said,glaring disgustingly at Harvey as he got up from the bed, wearing only a boxer and wrapping his arms around Gracia's waist. *********** On the night of his wedding anniversary, Harvey was made to sleep at the stables as the affluent guests couldn't stand the thought of spending the same abode with him.

Once, Ethan Ashford gave everything for the woman he loved. In return, she betrayed him. Veronica Harrington secretly gave the resources she took from Ethan to her lover, Damien Blackwood, the so-called Chosen One, the Protagonist, the Child of Luck, or whatever else. While Damien and other protagonists took countless "fortuitous encounters" to become the world's heroes, Ethan became the villain everyone despised. Betrayed and tortured, his family was destroyed, his bloodline exterminated, and he died filled with hatred and regret. But fate wasn't finished with him. Ethan awakened a hundred years in the past, before every tragedy began. And that too with a heaven-defying System, called the Villain System, that could give him rewards for changing his own destiny and destroying these protagonists' fortunes. This time, Ethan knew every opportunity the Chosen Ones would obtain, every scheme hidden in the shadows, and every betrayal waiting for him. Did the Divine Healer descend from the mountains? "I'll steal his inheritance." Is the King of Soldiers returning to reclaim his glory? "I'll crush him before he even rises." The destined Son of Fortune? The Heavenly Genius? The Peerless Sword Saint? I'll take every one of their opportunities and leave them with nothing. "As for the heroines who once stood beside those protagonists... If they deserve redemption, they'll stand by my side instead. If they choose my enemies, they'll share their fate." In this life, Ethan would no longer be the stepping stone beneath the protagonists' feet. He would become the nightmare that hunts every Chosen One. After all... "Who says villains are destined to lose?"

Two years in, you’re madly in love — the kind where you’re telling her things you haven’t told your shadow. Then one night… You hear sounds in the house.

He asked for a divorce right away. His wife thought she finally won. Finally figured out how to make Charles realize he’s been nothing but a cockroach in her coffee all these years. Unfortunately, she didn’t know — The company she built, the connections she bragged about, the deals she “secured”… Every single win in her life for the past two years had his fingerprints on it. And once he walked out, it all started to fall apart. But this story doesn’t start with heartbreak. It starts the night Charles left… and the most feared woman in New York asked him to marry her. Will he pay his ex-wife back? Nah. That would be too easy. Charles leaving her life is like pulling the one stack holding the whole building upright. Will she regret it? Only if she survives the collapse long enough to remember what regret even feels like. But Charles will be here, sipping his coffee. Watching his ex-wife’s world burn— one arrogant family member at a time. So grab your popcorn. This ride’s about to get long — and very, very personal.
