Evelyn is a painter. Her first real love was captured forever in her first oil painting. She was her first model ever. When her first lover died of illness, Evelyn learned how fleeting true beauty can be.... more>>

It took several months to convince Rachel, her second lover, to model for her. She became her first model for her sketches with charcoal, and other pencils. When life's circumstances took her away, she learned that love can also be fleeting.

Now, she seeks something more permanent. Something where she can preserve the beauty she once loved, and prevent her lovers from leaving her. A sculpture of her lover was the key, but who would be her first?

When she first saw Eva outside her small art gallery, which was also her home, Evelyn could see true beauty in her eyes. They were haunted, and carried a sense of betrayal within them. Her too slender form spoke of her life, as did the bruises on her legs.

Evelyn began to sketch furiously. She wanted to preserve that look in her eyes, so it would not be lost to time, or circumstances.

When Eva walked into her gallery, Evelyn knew what she wanted. She wanted Eva to model for her, and become what this perverted artist dreamed of for the last ten years. To turn a beauty into a work of art.

She wanted to preserve the beauty of her lovers before they left her alone. Three little words were on her lips, and they made Evelyn squirm in excitement.

Model for me.

At the tender age of 11, a young boy without a name committed many gruesome acts. Murder, theft, arson, and the list continued to grow. He was born into this world pure and innocent and corrupted by the very monsters who birthed him, thus they turned him into one as well.... more>>

His abilities were unnatural; he was a monster in human form, a superhuman. At 11 years old, he could flip a grown man with ease. The only thing that was normal about him was his enjoyment of stories. He enjoyed watching and reading whatever he could get his hands on.

He didn't understand emotions, but he always felt something when he finished the jobs assigned to him. When he snuffed the life of a woman and her children, or when he burned the cars of men and women while they were still inside, or even when his own mother strangled him to death with a wire; the young boy felt a sensation in his gut that would never fully surface—a feeling that he desired to understand.

Then, following the death at his own mother's hands, he woke up in another world. More specifically, he was in the body of a baby. As he struggled to see what was around him, he heard a voice that was impossible not to recognize—"I AM HERE!" He heard the voice proudly proclaim.

Given a second chance at life for a reason he did not understand, will this young boy—now turned young girl—finally be able to experience a life worth living? Or will the ghosts of his past come to haunt him?

-Overpowered and Eccentric Characters with a lot of unique abilities. As the series progresses, OP vs OP fights and conflict become more common.

-Some very wholesome and some very dark moments. They are Anti-Heroes after all, so you get the good and the bad.

This story is a slow burn and has many lead characters and points of views, so don't expect too much in the first few chapters. I'm a very, and i mean very, slow writer so I'll only be updating this once a week on Saturdays. I also release mini intermission chapters in between my regulars updates sporadically.

This story is also written in a weird experimental playwright style to allow quick and easy conversation between multiple people to occur at once. This style might not might not appeal to some.

Also, if it wasn't obvious, most of the artwork you see in this series is AI generated. <<less

Having to fight a duel to the death at the start of my first day on the job was a new one for me.

Waking up with no memory was also odd. I think. But neither of those came close to the absurdity of having beautiful and deadly women ready and eager to kill for me.

What I need from them now, though, is nothing special. I just need them to teach me how to lead a cult of assassins. No big deal.

The last time humanity had seen the natural white light of the sun was a few millennia ago. Left with no other choice but to adapt, countless sacrifices paved the path to survival. Their new lives were filled with daily tests and tribulations. The word 'humanity' had lost meaning a long time ago.

Trials were placed before them, trials that they must overcome to gain the bare necessities for survival. If they want food and water, they need to solve the puzzle. If they want to gain weapons to fight back against the lingering monstrosities inside, they must complete the trial awaiting them. If they want to escape, they need to keep moving forward. Unfortunately for humanity, they weren't here alone. <<less
