Humanity once believed everything could be placed into archetypes and clean categories. In the near future, a complex system built to assist humanity quietly governs the city of Starfall. Strange incidents have emerged as puzzles and murder mysteries, blurring the boundaries that humanity once relied on. A young investigator finds herself chasing answers that won't be confined by the old rules. As truth and illusion grow harder to tell apart, only one question remains there: When everything begins to break, what was humanity never meant to see? Amidst the False Utopia of philosophies and clashing ideologies - where technology and the supernatural both influence society, and how no one is purely good or evil... How would they succeed in this game of psychological secrets?

Sometimes, the word "ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑜" is just a prettier title for a caged weapon. On the morning she had wedding plans to finalize, Cassandra Vale is torn from her life by a summoning ritual that mistakes desperation for destiny. She is dropped in a foreign court alongside four other strangers, each pulled from unfinished lives and futures. Jason Calloway is a bonafide flirt who lives and breathes the gym. If you ask him? Strength can answer all life's problems. He's strength made human, literally, but even the strongest people have limits. William James prefers the solace of reading and drawings to help him cope with daily life. After all, books don't talk back. Quiet, observant, and often overlooked, he sees more than he says; speaking up only when logic gets involved. If social media had a queen, it'd be Vivian Sterling. Fashion and screens are her ride or die as she lives to create that "𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑓𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒" wherever she goes. Until now...when that curated picture cracks. And then there's Alex Mercer. Charming. Effortless. Impossible not to like. The kind of Golden Boy whose smile can hide a hundred secrets. He knows that there is a fine line between manipulation and charm. The only difference between the two? One tastes sweet. The other? It 𝑙𝑜𝑜𝑘𝑠 sweet. Together, they are declared heroes. A world on the brink of collapse claims it had no choice. Demons press against weakening seals. Ancient protections fail. And those in power mask theft as fate. But the summoned are not grateful. As grief hardens into anger and fragile alliances form, the summoned heroes choose to play nice learning the world and its ways...for the moment. Whether they continue to choose that option remains to be seen. But the one thing they'll learn? Being chosen doesn't make you a hero. It makes you a resource. And Cassandra Vale never agreed to be merciful.

"How much they loved each other, these three" When a girl is given the opportunity to live what seemed to be a normal life, she takes a leap of faith and not soon after, things begin to crumble to pieces around her. She was unknown to dangerous things that lived in the room next to hers, and paid the price for it with the cost of lives that meant the world to her. She deserves an explanation for this, right?

In a world filled with magic, mythical creatures, and ancient grudges, one name is feared above all others. The Dragon King. A century ago, dragonkind was wiped out in a devastating war, leaving him as the last of his kind. In his grief and vengeance, the Dragon King cursed the world itself. Now, only one person can end it. The Warrioress, the strongest of her time, undefeated, unstoppable, and feared by many, was raised with a single purpose: to kill him. But strength does not mean unbroken. Behind her power is a girl shaped by expectations, burdened by the past, and quietly carrying wounds no one sees. She was taught to be fearless. She was never taught how to be free. And there is one truth she cannot escape. She never hated him. She admired him her whole life. When they finally meet, it is not gentle. It is not fate wrapped in softness. It is steel against flame. A clash meant to end in one's death. And yet... in the heart of that battle, something shifts. A hesitation. A recognition. A feeling neither of them were prepared for. Not love at first sight. LOVE AT FIRST FIGHT. For the Dragon King, who has lost everything, she is not just his enemy. And for the Warrioress, he is not the monster she was raised to destroy. In a story where destiny, love, and vengeance intertwine, the line between enemy and soulmate begins to blur. Because sometimes, the strongest hearts are the ones that have suffered the most. And sometimes... the greatest war is not against each other, but against the feelings they were never meant to have. 🕊️Chapters will be updated within 7 days.🕊️

Once, she was a peach tree bathed in spring wind; he, a five-colored stone sleeping beneath her roots. In the age before light, they shared the same breath of heaven and earth. Through endless cycles of death and rebirth, they learned to be human- only to find that no life felt complete without the other. When they meet again in the mortal realm, destiny burns anew. Two souls, one flame- their reunion will ignite the heavens.
