[COMPLETED] Oliver Kardos was the General of Bierze and Guardian of the Realms. He had dedicated his life to fighting a thirty-year war in hopes of keeping his family and soldiers safe. However, when his tyrant king had no further use for him, Oliver was stripped of his titles and forced to bear the villainous name "Ghost". Before he was sentenced to die, he found that the war, which claimed countless lives, was merely a distraction so his king could chase a fairytale to grant a selfish wish. Aggrieved, Oliver wished for another chance in life. He was supposed to die. However, instead of death, he found that he was sent back in time before the war began. Determined to change his fate along with the world's, he will make different choices. Old mistakes will be remedied, past regrets will be rewritten, and former enemies will now stand by his side as allies-Including his past life's greatest opponent, General Draco of Rucrea. Sometimes, wishes do come true. ***Contains violence, strong language, and sexual content*** Fantasy|Magic|Male x Male

[BOOK 1] COMPLETED Legends once spoke of Erebus, a great cultivator who stood against an army of darkness. He fought bravely alongside his brothers for many years but found himself betrayed. Those he called family poisoned and tortured him-seeking his death. When he escaped, he was demonized and painted as a villain of the realms. Thus, Erebus turned to the army of darkness and discovered the truth. His foe was never the darkness but the great beings manipulating the realms-Titans. He picked up his daggers and spent centuries fighting against these monsters, but fell short of his goal and lost his life. When he believed death would give him rest, the Shadow Deity revealed another plan for him and offered a new life. Erebus found himself in the body of Eri Themis, the outcast and trash of the prodigious Themis family. Starting over again, he will find himself standing by new allies and facing his old enemies. Can they stop the corruption and deceit spread by the gods? ***This novel will have mature language and violence.*** An earlier version of this novel was released a couple of years ago; however, I have rebooted it to this current version. This is an MxM novel but is considered a slow burn.

[BOOK 2] [COMPLETED] This is a continuation of the first novel, and it is recommended that you read Return of the Demon Sovereign: Udanfold [MxM] before starting this one. •••• In the aftermath of their tireless wars against the Devils in the depths of Undanfold, Erebus and Leo find themselves in the realm of Halrland. As they navigate this new terrain, their enemies draw ever closer, their relentless pursuit threatening to unravel the fragile peace they've fought so hard to obtain. Erebus, haunted by the memories of his past as the Demon Sovereign, is in a constant battle to keep his identity hidden. The revelation of his true self would not only endanger his life but also the lives of those who stand by him. His inner turmoil is further complicated by the presence of Jericho and Kore and their plots to destroy Shadowbane. However, they must also face the greatest threat to the realms: the Titans. Their awakening could engulf the realms in chaos and destruction. Erebus and Leo must find a way to thwart Jericho and Kore's schemes while preparing for the imminent threat of the Titans. In Halrland, alliances will be tested, secrets will be unveiled, and the battle for survival will reach new heights. Erebus must confront his past and embrace his destiny to protect those he loves and prevent the realms from descending into darkness. The path ahead is fraught with peril, but with Leo by his side, Erebus is determined to face whatever challenges lie in wait. Genre: Fantasy|Action|MxM Trigger Warning: This novel contains fighting, blood, death, gore, and torture. It also contains mature language and scenes. Although this will have romance, it will not be the primary focus of the novel. I love Erebus and Leo (don't get me wrong), but I may love vengeance a little more.

A famous poet once said; "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." Hell hasn't met Nathan Grimes. - Nathan Grimes's life comes crashing down around him when he finds out his entire family has been murdered. When his attempt at bringing them back from the dead fails, he resorts to the next best thing: revenge. Rowan has finally escaped captivity. He would've been ecstatic, if not for the fact that his escape hinged entirely on his sister sacrificing herself. Now Rowan vows to fulfil his final promise to her: to get to the unknown town called Nova Falls, and find the man she'd simply referred to as "Grimes". Promise fulfilled, he was going to go back for her, and wreak havoc on the people who'd captured and mistreated them, no matter what it took. Despite Nathan's badly hidden desire to love and be loved, and Rowan's staunch refusal to trust anyone but his sister; from the waters of their grief and the ashes of their rage and thirst for revenge - slowly, disbelievingly, love begins to bloom. - Copyright © 2021 Viano Oniomoh All rights reserved.

Sure, Cole dreamed of a knight in shining armor showing up to make it all go away, but that was how he ended up in this situation - dancing and turning tricks - in the first place. So even though his latest client, Gideon, seemed to fit the bill, he did not let himself hope. But when meddling family members force them together, he is thrown into a dangerous world of ulterior motives where they might just be able to discover a true connection.

The first draft is finished, and I plan to upload chapters as I edit. Posting schedule as of now (optimistically) is every couple of days.

Sometimes you need just one person to make all the difference in the world. And even better if you get a whole family of them. Zach's been living in his car for a month now. He has nowhere to go, no job and his money is starting to run out. Life has been rough on him, growing up in an abusive home and later in life becoming the center of a vile man's attention. Just as he thinks his life is never getting better, he meets the charming business owner Dean. Zach is a broken boy and has nothing to offer to a successful businessman who's so handsome he could be on a magazine cover. But life has a way of putting the right person in your path even if you didn't know you were on the one. This is a finished, full length (80k words), slow burn romance about learning to trust, falling in love and healing after life has beaten you down. !Trigger warning: This story deals with child neglect, child abuse, domestic violence and rape. I wasn't overly descriptive about these situations, but they are still a big part of the story. !Explicit sexual scene. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, places, events, locales, and incidents are either the products of the author's imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

Deeply hurt by a lover's betrayal, Noah Hunter leaves a shattered life behind and moves to Spring Lakes to join his brother's pack. All he wants is a quiet place and some time to heal. Fate has other ideas. In the middle of the night, on a lonely stretch of road, Noah hits a dog. When he brings the injured animal to a veterinarian, he crosses paths with the singular, mysterious, and aggravatingly handsome Ambrose Thorne. When, after learning that Noah needs a place to stay, Ambrose invites him to his home, Noah thinks he may have found just the sort of peace and space he needs, and the last thing he expects is to become entangled in the heart of a mystery. While helping his brother Dane on a case involving a string of inexplicable thefts, Noah soon discovers that his new acquaintance is more than he seems and is inextricably tied to the strange burglaries. As the case becomes complicated by occult rituals, murder, and mythical beasts, Noah finds himself in more than one kind of danger - because while he doubts that anyone would want something so broken and torn, it seems like his heart might get stolen, too. He just hopes that the one who steals it and the thief at the heart of the mystery are not one and the same. ----- WARNINGS: This story contains strong language, some violence, and sex. ----- DISCLAIMER: This is a work of fiction.
