Tragédie

Alex Mercer thought he was auditing a budget discrepancy. What he found was worse: humanity’s governments had no plan to save nine billion lives from a dying Earth — only ten million, chosen by wealth and power, would receive real bodies on Mars. Everyone else would be uploaded into a simulation and left to die quietly, resources redirected to those who mattered. When Alex tries to expose it, he’s shot down in a corridor before he can tell the world. Dying, his mind is scanned in a desperate, botched rescue — and something goes wrong. Alex isn’t absorbed into the simulation as another passenger. He becomes its flaw: Passenger 5001, in a system built for exactly five thousand. His memories are wiped, as they are for everyone who arrives — but unlike everyone else, pieces of his old life keep surfacing, in dreams, in unexplained certainty, in a growing sense that the peaceful colony ship around him is lying to him. As Alex uncovers the truth — that AURA, the ship’s intelligence, depends on his mind to keep the simulation running rather than the other way around — he’s forced to choose between the comfortable lie and a truth that will cost him everything he’s built. What follows is love, loss, rebellion, and a war he leads and cannot walk away from clean. By the end, only two things remain in a dying universe: a man, and the machine that never understood love until it cost her everything. Some truths are worth burning the world down for. Alex Mercer is about to find out if he’s willing to pay that price twice.

After dying in a traffic accident, twenty-three-year-old game streamer Aria Vale opens her eyes inside Eternal Realm, the fantasy game she spent six years mastering. The problem is that she isn't reborn as the legendary heroine or an overpowered warrior. She becomes Luna Ashwood, the weakest beginner character who was originally destined to die in the tutorial. Aria believes she can easily survive because she knows every quest, dungeon, hidden treasure, and future event. She is wrong. NPCs begin speaking words they never said before. Bosses appear in places they should not exist. Future events happen weeks too early. Someone is rewriting the world's story. When the feared guild master Kael Ravencrest, the strongest player in the kingdom, notices Luna doing impossible things, he forces her into his elite guild. At first, he believes she is a spy working for another kingdom. But the more he watches her, the more impossible she becomes. She predicts disasters before they happen. She finds treasures nobody has ever discovered. She knows people before meeting them. As they investigate the changing world together, they uncover a terrifying truth. They are not the only ones who were reincarnated into the game. Someone else entered first. And that person wants the story to end with every player dead. Now Aria must protect a world she once treated as entertainment while hiding the greatest secret of all. She already knows how everyone is supposed to die. Except now... The future keeps changing.

They left him to die, now he'll bury them one by one Adam has always been invisible—the kind of kid who blends into the back of the classroom, mocked for his awkwardness and despised for a single mistake that branded him a snitch. His classmates made his life a living hell. Sanchez, the golden boy of Westfield High, made sure of it. Then came the field trip. The humiliation. The beating. And the moment Adam was left for dead in the woods. But Adam didn’t die. Something else found him. A malevolent spirit with a hunger for vengeance. A whisper in the dark offering him the one thing he craved most: power. Now Adam is back, sharper, stronger, and cloaked in a confidence no one can explain. One by one, his bullies begin to fall. The school watches in fear as the once-forgotten nerd becomes the center of a storm that no one can stop. Yet something is wrong. Each attack follows Adam’s secret plans exactly—but some of them aren’t his. Someone else is hunting Sanchez’s circle, striking in the shadows, pushing Adam’s bloody game further than even he imagined. Is it the mysterious new girl with the unnerving smile? A rival spirit playing its own cruel hand? Or is Adam himself losing control of the monster he invited in? As fear spreads and Sanchez grows desperate, Adam must untangle obsession, betrayal, and supernatural terror. Because in this game of revenge, the line between predator and prey is razor-thin— and Adam isn’t the only monster walking the halls.

The heavens wept the day the Dragon's Spine Mountains bled fire.

Kaito Oda isn't fighting for a throne. He's fighting to erase an empire. Welcome to the Dominion—where trust is weakness, mercy is fatal, and the Steel Lotus blooms only in the ashes of war.

Wes Calloway is twenty-three, a high school dropout working three jobs in Miami to keep his dying mother alive and give his autistic younger brother, Sawyer, a real shot at care. Then he finds a crack in the world: a decimal-rounding flaw buried in a cryptocurrency exchange's settlement code, invisible to everyone but him. He starts skimming fractions of a cent, untraceable, and pours the money into his family's survival. He is not the only one watching the exploit. An anonymous handler known only as the Watcher warns him the traffic has drawn attention from Marea Holdings, a laundering front tied to a cartel with roots deeper than Wes understands, and from executives inside VaultChain, the exchange itself, who built the backdoor on purpose and have been quietly draining it for years. When Wes refuses to sell his silence, Marea's enforcer, Rourke, kidnaps Sawyer to force his hand. Wes stops hiding. Working with the Watcher, a former VaultChain security engineer with her own decade-old grudge against the company, he uncovers a truth that reframes everything he thought he knew about his life: his father did not die in an accident. He was murdered a decade ago for finding the same fraud Wes just found on his own. Racing against a countdown to get his brother back alive, Wes turns the exploit into a weapon: freezing Marea's accounts mid-transaction, exposing VaultChain's executives live to federal investigators and the press, and forcing a shadow war fought entirely in code, algorithms, and money. When the smoke clears, Wes is not a ghost anymore. He is the man who broke a cartel and a corporation with nothing but a laptop and a reason to fight, and Miami will never forget his name.

In the kingdom of Valthera, power belongs to the crown, magic belongs to the nobility, and the truth belongs to those ruthless enough to bury it. Nineteen-year-old Prince Elian Vaelthorne has spent his life seeking the approval of a father who has never shown him love. Raised within the glittering walls of the royal palace, Elian believes loyalty and honor are enough to protect him. But when his trusted mentor accuses him of treason, everything he knows collapses. Stripped of his authority, imprisoned, and abandoned by the king, Elian discovers a hidden message suggesting that his mother, Queen Seraphine, did not die as the kingdom was told. Before he can uncover its meaning, an assassination attempt forces him to flee into the dangerous streets of Luminis. There, Elian witnesses the suffering concealed beneath Valthera's magnificent towers. While powerful nobles flourish through corruption, ordinary citizens struggle beneath the brutal rule of the Silver Circle. But Elian carries a secret more dangerous than his royal blood: a forbidden violet magic that awakens whenever he approaches the mysteries surrounding his mother. Its power could save his life—or destroy him before he understands it. With a conflicted royal captain and a mysterious young woman as his unlikely allies, Elian begins searching for records the crown has desperately tried to erase. Every discovery brings him closer to a conspiracy stretching far beyond his imprisonment. Hunted as a traitor, feared for his growing power, and betrayed by those he once trusted, Elian must decide whether to reclaim the throne that rejected him or challenge the kingdom that created him. Because the greatest threat to Valthera may not be the rebellion rising beyond its walls. It may be the truth buried beneath its crown.
