Ranna lived in an era when werewolves had long since taken over. In her world, people were taught of the dangers of the human mind. They believed that the only way the world could be safe is if they were kept in their wards, only ever leaving on their twenty-fifth year. On that day, each human was required to go to take the train to the capital of their district. There they would be genetically tested to see if they were worthy of becoming the mate of the creatures who ruled over all of mankind.... more>>

If a human would be chosen, they would be given luxury and wealth few could ever dream of. If not, they were doomed to return to their wards, living a life of poverty for the rest of their existences. Not that all of this mattered to Ranna. For the women in Ranna's family were descended from a long line of singers and storytellers. Belonging to one of the only families in her ward permitted to share stories, poetry and music, she never held any dreams about becoming a mate and escaping her fate.

When she is actually chosen as the mate of a werewolf councilman known for his cruelty and strength, Ranna resolves to die. After all, if her fate is to forever be separated from her family and be paraded around as some monster's other half, death would at least allow her to keep her dignity.

I fell asleep while playing a crappy visual novel. When I awoke, I found myself in the world of the game. But instead of the... more>> school life romcom I was expecting, why did the story twist like this? Half of the characters are insane and mysterious events are happening all over campus.

“Love beyond death is nothing but grief.”... more>>

The aftermath of the war committed by the High Heavens had taken more than just lives.

Somewhere along the bloodshed and rubble of what once was is the former Dragon God of the Sky, Huang-long's right-hand woman, Priestess Baozi, carrying the burden of a broken heart and a fragile promise.

The last words of the former god were a muted confession—a 'what could've been' before he was mercilessly taken from her, swept by the cruelty of war. She had sworn off love from then on. After all, immortal beings like her and the hopeless wishing for love were nothing but a dangerous pipedream.

So imagine her horror when the spitting image of Huang-long ended up on the doorstep of his abandoned shrine, a new young god calling himself Qing-long who could only remember his name.

Now, Baozi, begrudgingly, must do her duty again: protect and serve the successor of her former lord as best as she could without her grief getting in the way.

Can the icy romanceable option & the calculating villainess work together in a reckless attempt to avoid a Bad End?... more>>

The dissolution of Lady Ein's engagement to Prince Lochlann in favor of a foreign commoner threatens to plunge the kingdom back into civil war—but Ein is more concerned about losing her access to the kingdom's best medical practitioners; her mysterious illness is only getting worse, and time is running out.

Prince Finnian, the youngest—and grumpiest—member of the new royal family, has always known that something inside of him was different. It's not until a near-fatal accident unlocks hidden memories that he realizes what: he's been reincarnated into the world of an otome game as the tsundere Romanceable Option, and he's on route for a deadly Bad End.

Now, he must work carefully to steer the story in a different direction and eliminate the game's villainess, Lady Ein—even if it means giving up on his desire to transition. But when Lady Ein approaches him with an outrageous marriage proposal, he realizes that an unlikely alliance might be the only solution.

Can they work together to rewrite the last page of the story, or is fate dead set on giving them both Bad Ends?

Note: This is a transphobia-free story! In this kingdom, we love our tsundere trans princess!

Transported into a world where just about anybody can receive the prestigious title of Mage, Morgana is equally baffled and outraged. She spent the better part of twenty-two years holed up in alcoves, poring over spell formulae and memorizing the forty-three Primary Astolian Paradigms, all for the opportunity to study at the Ivory Institute and gain access to those primordial, inscrutable powers. And here, they're dropped into people's laps? Ridiculous.... more>>

Morgana doesn't know how she's arrived here, why everyone is so bone-headedly ignorant to the fundamentals of magic, and especially what this strange 'System' is, coddling even 'archmages' with the simplest of spell constructions, but she's going to find out.

In the meantime, there's plenty of fascinating things to study. Dungeons, artifacts, classes, skills, and spells—all obviously created by some Grand Architect using a language that, apparently, only Morgana is familiar with. Beyond gaining insights into the arcane, which she's devoted her life to decoding, there might be something incredible to glean inside all these expertly hidden mechanisms.

Something bigger than she could imagine. <<less

The legend of Graiana, also known as the Cold Death, is a tale to scare children who don't go to sleep when they're told. A figure of misfortune, solitude, and eternal winter. Her name is also a sign of a bad omen and is used when you want to curse someone, so she's seldom mentioned by her birth name.... more>>

Everyone is aware that the legend of the enraged woman was more than just a legend—it was pure reality. It happened millennia ago when humans were still living tied to Mother Nature.

Graiana was once a gifted girl who could repel sickness and help maintain the freshness of meats and vegetables. But soon, her powers came out of control, after people saw more danger in her than anything positive.

Starting from an accidental murder to being hated, banished, and exiled from everywhere, to cursing the entire world with her return.

And she returned.

Vivian Montcroix was born with Graiana's significant snow-white hair, and even though a Seeress advised her family to love Vivian, they instead turned their backs on her. After many unfortunate events, Vivian became the second Graiana and massacred many.

At the moment she was about to be executed, she wished to return back in time to change her fate. But there are two sides to her: one that seeks revenge, and the other that seeks peace.

As she's reborn on the night of a snowstorm, she must choose what to do, as her first moments as a baby could change everything.

Follow her story as she grows up, and when she eventually starts attending as a student at the Tower of Magi—the place where she was changed forever. <<less

There’s a fact that every trillionaire in the Terran Accord knows: Power on Antares always comes with a price. And it was true; almost every position of power within the jurisdiction of the Antares Authority had some sort of string attached. ... more>>

Yet an entire third of the Antares Authority’s budget is exempt from public scrutiny, a gigantic bucket of odds and ends that the masses aren't allowed to know any details on. It's a glaring exception to the rule. Accountability is completely impossible. The money is poured down a hole and not subject to any form of oversight. Nobody knows a single thing they do — not even the very legislators who approve it, every single year, without failure. Whoever is in charge of this is one glaring exception to this rule: They have power without a price. Or so it seems…

This is the story of the Department of Autonomy, and their struggle preparing for a threat beyond their wildest nightmares. <<less

This is the 2nd draft of Firesong Ballad: Ember (name has changed)... more>>

Mina is on a mission of revenge. She has sworn her life to kill all those who have wronged her. People born with the ability to control an element are rare, and as one of the few she may actually be able to pull it off.

As powerful as she is, she begrudgingly admits that it's not a quest she can take on alone. She enlists the help of a cranky swordsman and an ever-dutiful knight.

Her plans are thrown into disarray when a powerful foe reveals themselves. It's hard to turn down the amount of money offered to defeat them, even with the possibility of death around every corner.

She is soon joined by a curious raccoon man that has a penchant for taking things that don't belong to him, and an elf that has spent his entire life in a gilded cage.

Mina will have to learn to navigate these four personalities while desperately trying to return to her quest. She doesn't have time for silly things like emotions.

What to expect:
Ember is a fantasy adventure with a reverse harem subplot. It is a journey of self-discovery, intrigue, growth, with some comedy thrown in the mix. Join Mina as she travels between countries to bring down one of the biggest threats the world has seen for centuries.

He just likes to eat and sleep, and play with Anthony, who came to live with Grandfather so he could go to school in the village. Anthony soon becomes his world, his playmate, his best friend, his everything.
But sometimes, he can't help but feel a little lonely. Anthony goes to school all day, and he talks and laughs and plays with the other children...
Sometimes, Candor wishes that he could be human too.

Meet Zanda, fresh from the prestige of becoming a Gevurah, member of the Fifth Sephirah, a powerful league of guardians in charge of protecting the seemingly perfect reality of planet Malkuth. Yet, her first day after graduation spirals into unforeseen chaos, reminding her that the luminosity of malkuthian society masks a profound darkness. As the young Gevurah confronts the challenges her new title involves, she is thrust into a journey beyond the realms of her training and expectations.... more>>

Parallel to Zanda's tale is that of Adria, a woman ensnarled in the brutal survivalist life of Dictaduria, the third country in the continent for exiled criminals, Sectum. Wrongly accused of her crimes, living in poverty and marooned in a social structure designed to mirror the struggles of a life under failed political regimes, Adria finds herself forgotten by time. That, until the day an unexpected opportunity that could change the core of who she is, and bring her liberty, presents itself when a bloodied and tortured man named Corven crosses her path, about to be murdered by sadistic hands.

"A Tree of Omens" is meant to interlace the destinies of Zanda and Adria, two souls from disparate worlds, bound by a shared fate that will pave the path for new generations in a galaxy where futuristic ideals and ancient secrets collide.

With the promise of a timeless epic that not only questions the nature of utopia but also the very fabric that weaves our universe, this is an open invitation to witness the unfolding of The Omens.

The journey begins now – are you ready to delve into the hidden knowledge? <<less

Mirk has lost everything: his noble family, his home, and nearly his life. All he has left is his grandfather’s staff and the K’maneda, the strange band of foreign mercenaries who saved him. He decides to build a new life among them in their wandering City of Glass, dedicating himself to healing the outcast and forgotten men who did everything to protect him. Providence makes no mistakes. And to live is to serve.... more>>

Genesis is an expert at three things: binding magic, assassination, and cleaning potions. Everything else is a mystery to him, especially people. Which is a crucial shortcoming, considering his ambition is to launch an insurrection against the corrupt mages who have warped the K’maneda into a machine designed to grind up the poor for the benefit of the wealthy. He will never be free; his nature is destruction. Since he can’t escape it, he will use it to liberate those who aren’t bound to obey.

They’re an unexpected team: the unrelenting and inhumanly powerful Destroyer and the kindly healer with the right lineage and a knack for putting the right people in the right places. But will it be enough to ensure the revolution prevails? And is there more to their relationship beyond a mutually beneficial alliance?

Featuring: Slowest of slow-burns, grumpy x sunshine, size difference to the max, perpetual hurt/comfort, and a whole lotta bed sharing. HEA guaranteed...eventually. <<less

He had expected a fun night out with his friends watching an old movie. After their sudden cancellation, he was approached outside the theater by a gorgeous woman with purple eyes and a strange accent. But she was more than what she seemed.

With his life on the line, and this mysterious woman by his side, he has to quickly learn how to use magic, a blade, and even the local language before he and an entire kingdom run out of time. Achieving all of that will be far from easy, as his enemies are as powerful and numerous as his allies are beautiful and few. The darkness in this unfamiliar land hides nightmares far beyond any old movie, so Mitchell will need all the strength and skill he and his women can muster if he is to succeed. Will he succeed and be the hero this new land needs?
