Single Father

A few months before Emily turns 18, her father dies. She goes to Baguio to live with her mother, her stepfather Miguel, and her half-brother Migo. Emily misses her father terribly that she finds it hard to fit into her new home, despite her mother's sympathetic efforts and her half-brother's irresistible cuteness. Good thing, Emily seems to be friendly enough to have made new pals, like Denver, who, it turns out, sees her as more than a friend. Then Emily meets a mysterious young man who suddenly appears and disappears; and he's always dressed in black leather jacket and denim pants whom she gets to know as Lance Monroe. Emily is smitten by Lance's romantic gestures and protective ways. He teaches her to play the piano, and brings her roses, and he even rescues her from bad guys, and helps her overcome her fears. She feels she has found in Lance her knight in shining armor who will rescue her from her incurable loneliness and deathly sadness. But Emily's family and friends are alarmed that she has become secluded and deluded in her own imaginary world. In the end, she has to decide what matters most to her and where her heart truly is.

Ethan Vance’s past life was the stuff of legend. As the “Sovereign,” he reigned as the world’s most feared mercenary commander—until the one person he trusted above all else turned on him, ending his life in a single, brutal betrayal. He awakens decades later, in 2026, not as a powerful figure but as a penniless, struggling 21-year-old college student. In the sterile glare of a hospital hallway, Ethan’s world seems to crumble. He can’t afford the surgery that could save his mother’s life. To make matters worse, his girlfriend—always quick to chase after money—abandons him on the spot for a wealthier classmate. Just as despair threatens to swallow him, a metallic chime rings out in his mind: [Ding! God-Level Wealth System activated. Binding complete.] [Initial Balance Reward: $10,000,000 deposited into your account!] Suddenly, fragments of his old self snap into place. The instincts of a battlefield commander return, but this time he’s armed not just with experience, but with limitless funds. The days of being dismissed as a loser on campus are over. Ethan Vance, the Sovereign, is back—reborn with a vengeance. To the ex-girlfriend who laughed at his misfortune: Watch as I buy the company your family depends on. To the doctors who turned away his mother: You’ll be lucky to find work in medicine again. And to the shadows of his past life, those enemies still lurking and scheming: I’m coming for my throne. This time, nothing will stand in my way.

"You used to say a piece of bread was worth more than my life, didn't you? Well, look at me now. I have everything, yet I would rather feed this to my guard dog than toss it to traitors like you. The world has changed, Cindy. In my world, you are not even worth the dust on my shoes." The apocalypse was not the end of everything. It was the beginning of the reckoning of sins. When the black meteor Khamul crashed into the continent of Eldoria, the world transformed into a living hell overnight. Axel Edward was betrayed by his girlfriend for a single piece of moldy bread and thrown into a horde of zombies to die. However, death instead awakened a miracle: the 100x Rebate System. The rule was simple. Give any resource to a woman chosen by the system, and receive a return up to a thousand times over in god-tier quality! Give away a sip of leftover water? Axel received an entire warehouse of pure mineral water. Give away a rusty kitchen knife? Axel received a steel-shattering laser vibration sword. Offer basic shelter? Axel received an invincible divine fortress. While the rest of the world shivered and starved in the dark, Axel was busy figuring out how to finish his fresh Wagyu beef and taking hot baths inside his grand palace. Alongside the goddesses who had sworn absolute loyalty to him, Axel would ascend to the highest throne. To those who betrayed him: prepare to beg for death. To the ruined world: bow down and worship your new ruler.

In the canal city of Veythra, memory is currency and glass is its vault. Citizens pay skilled artisans to seal away their sharpest regrets, brightest joys, and most dangerous truths so that life can continue unburdened. Lira Voss is one of the finest of these glasswrights—quiet, precise, and privately unwilling to surrender any of her own past. When a veiled client commissions her to trap “what remains of the night I stopped dreaming,” Lira produces a sphere that refuses to stay inert. Something ancient and aware moves inside the glass, leaving living scars that heal themselves and a pulse that matches her own. Ordered to deliver the sphere to an unfinished tower and never look back, Lira disobeys. That single glance sets loose a cascade: sealed memories across the city begin to leak, the great Archive towers darken one by one, and the boundary between remembered and forgotten starts to dissolve. Lira discovers the sphere contains the final fragment of the First Forgetting—an entity older than the city that once allowed mortals to release pain and move forward. A secret order seeks to either free it completely (condemning everyone to remember every moment forever) or bind it so tightly that even necessary memory will be erased. As reality frays and her own locked drawer of private shards begins to sing in answer, Lira must decide whether to finish the work she started, destroy the fragment, or claim it. The choice will determine whether Veythra continues as a city of deliberate amnesia or collapses under the weight of everything it has tried to forget.

David rose again with a perfect body. His impotence was cured, and his strength was godlike. But there was a price to pay: every time he used his power, his lifespan decreased by one day. The only way to survive was to satisfy women's desires and absorb their energy. Driven by vengeance for his mother's death and the humiliations of the past, David began his hunt. However, his first steps toward revenge led him into trouble with the most powerful Mafia organization. His arrogant former boss now kneels as his personal servant. Camelia, the treacherous wife, and Robert, the corrupt cop, are waiting their turn for hell. The Mafia kingpin awaits his wrath. "You used to mock me because I was weak. Now, you will beg for mercy at my feet." Is David ready to sacrifice everything for revenge, or will his lust kill him first? Note: Contains 21+ scenes, violence, and is highly addictive.

Dominic Hale was sixteen when Vivienne Ashford destroyed his family. She stole his mother Eleanor’s final masterpiece—a painting called “The Unbroken”—burned the original, and claimed the work as her own, building an art empire on the lie. Eleanor died in the flames trying to save it. Only a torn fragment survived. Ten years later, Dominic returns to Ashford City—no longer the helpless boy who fled, but the legendary Shadow King, the covert operative who single-handedly turned the tide of the Karethwyn War.

But his return collides with Celeste Monroe, the woman he once saved, now trapped in an arranged marriage to Vivienne’s cowardly son Tristan. As old loyalties resurface and enemies close in, Dominic must decide: will he become the monster Vivienne created, or will he prove his mother’s belief—that some things remain unbroken, no matter how the world tries to shatter them?

My name is Tobe, and I am just a poor boy from the Mainland slums. In our city, a massive concrete wall separates the poor people from the rich elites who live on the Island. The rich have everything: wealth, high-tech weapons, and powerful magic guilds. We have nothing but dirt and rifts, dangerous tears in reality that let monsters crawl into our streets. To keep my fourteen-year-old sister, Amarachi, safe, I worked myself to the bone. But the Island elites do not care about people like us. They tricked me. They used my family, took our blood, and left us to die so they could unlock a dark, legendary power called the Calamity Core. But I did not die. Instead, I woke up with a blue digital screen floating in front of my eyes. The system gave me a unique power that no other hunter has: Sovereign Necromancy. With every monster I kill, and with every corrupt elite I strike down, I can command their souls to stand up and fight for me. Every shadow I touch becomes my loyal soldier. Now, the rich elites are hunting us down to steal the core inside my sister's chest. But Amarachi is not a helpless child anymore, and I am no longer a weak boy from the slums. With an army of shadows at my back, I am breaking through their walls. I will protect my sister, destroy their corrupt guilds, and make every single billionaire pay for what they did to us.
