He was studying for a chemistry test. Then he was thrown into a war. Kevin Ho is an anxious, pacifist high school student whose only escape is fantasy novels. But when a fatal car accident tears him from his world, he awakens in the midst of a brutal siege-a world where warriors channel the power of Qi and survival is measured in blood. Marked as an outsider and useless in a society that values only martial strength, Kevin's only advantage is a mysterious system known as the Mandate, which allows him to see patterns in the chaos. Forced to become the strategist for a desperate fortress, he must use his wits to outmaneuver an overwhelming enemy, earning the wary respect of the fortress's deadly champion, a young woman named Xiao Li. But the Mandate is a double-edged sword, its power fueled by his own mind and spirit. To survive, Kevin must abandon his pacifist ideals and navigate a world of political intrigue, brutal combat, and a slow-burning connection that defies the boundaries of their two worlds. The path to victory will scar him, and the path back home is a distant, seemingly impossible dream. Can a pacifist survive in a world built on violence? And if he wins the war, will there be anything left of him to save?

- For anyone who's ever faked their smile, one too many times.- I stand there in the middle of the grey room, my hands are shaking, my head is spinning, and my body moves on its own. I did it. I finally did what he deserved. But it doesn't matter. Not anymore, not when I've lost her. Mom's gone. I saw the bullet go right through her head, splitting through her skin and skull. I watched as her brain spilled out to the ground. I watched her body fall, eyes dead and unmoving. I closed them for her, while Agnes cried. Yet, I stand there, gun in hand, blood dripping from my small fingers, clothes bloodied. Ah, Mum would scold me if she saw I got my clothes dirty, but she's not here to do that anymore. His body lies there utterly still. Bullets go wildly in his face, one through his cheek, another through his mouth, another between his eyes. Good. He's dead. My name is Aurelia Asherford, and my biggest weapon is my smile. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We wear our masks, hiding the blood that stains our souls.🩸🔪❤️ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Il primo amore non si perdona mai. Giulia ha tutto quello che può desiderare: una carriera come interior designer, una casa per cui chiunque farebbe carte false e, come ciliegina sulla torta, il suo ragazzo le ha appena fatto la proposta di matrimonio. C'è solo un problema: è già sposata con un altro uomo. Durante un soggiorno di studio a Parigi, dieci anni prima, aveva perso la testa per un ragazzo col quale era segretamente convolata a nozze, salvo abbandonare il marito e la Francia il giorno dopo il matrimonio alla luce di una scoperta che le aveva spezzato il cuore. Un articolo di giornale e la conferma dell'ambasciata a Parigi sembrano però spazzare via il suo problema: suo marito è deceduto anni prima, lasciandola vedova. Libera da quell'errore di gioventù, può recarsi a cuor leggero nella soleggiante Capri, dove un ricco imprenditore americano, l'enigmatico Rick Blaine, la aspetta per trasformare un'antica villa in un hotel di lusso. Giulia sa poco e niente del nuovo cliente: il suo passato sembra avvolto nel mistero, così come l'origine della sua fortuna, ma accetta l'incarico su due piedi. Limonate fresche, tuffi in acque blu, tintarelle a bordo di lussuosi yatch e aperitivi nei locali alla moda di Capri... sembra il lavoro dei sogni e Giulia non vede l'ora di godersi la dolce vita nel Golfo di Napoli. All'arrivo sull'isola, si scopre sempre più intrigata da questo "Grande Gatsby" e ha finalmente occasione di conoscerlo durante lo sfarzoso party che lui stesso ha organizzato alla villa prima della chiusura per i lavori. Ed è qui che viene a galla la verità: Rick Blaine non è nient'altri che suo marito, vivo e vegeto e per nulla disposto a concederle l'annullamento del matrimonio. Ma per Giulia i misteri da svelare restano molti: perché suo marito ha inscenato la propria morte? Perché ha affidato proprio a lei il restyling della villa? E soprattutto, perché l'uomo che lei ha abbandonato senza guardarsi indietro sembra deciso a riconquistare i

This is not a fairytale. It's the story of a girl who loved with every part of her soul-quietly, fully, and without ever being truly seen. He was her everything. She was just a shadow in his world. "Almost Mine" is a raw, unfiltered journey through one-sided love, late-night tears, overthinking, hope that refused to die, and the strength it takes to finally let go. It's not just about losing him. It's about finding herself in the ruins he left behind. For every girl who gave her all-and had to heal alone.

He looked down at me, a glint of mischief and competitiveness in his swirling forest green orbs. "Aw, don't be too sad, mate, I might give you a head start. Wouldn't do much anyways." I trained my eyes at him with an unimpressed stare, then I smirked, "I might get injured by your petty insults if I jumped from your ego to your IQ. What a painful death." He pouted. "You wound me, love. Mates don't do that to each other." I glared at him, but I couldn't stop grinning stupidly. "We're not mates, Anderson. Get your werewolf bullshit out of here." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I wouldn't recomm

First, he loved her. Then, he began to consume her. Alice Magara lives in a world where vampires and werewolves (usually) know exactly how to pass as human. She has no interest in their supernatural powers or the romanticized, blood-soaked relationships built on dominance. She has her own plans-scholarship, independence, the fulfillment of a dream that's more than just survival. But there are things she never saw coming. Teodor Trustfall. On the surface-an older guy with charisma and a spotless reputation. In reality-something that slowly blurs her boundaries, surrounds her, slips into her mind, until he's more present there than she is herself. As she loses herself in the relationship, she stops noticing what's happening to her body, her friends, the world around her. But not all bonds feel like chains. Sometimes, they feel like hands on your waist. Warm, strong, familiar. Until you realize they're not holding you. They're not letting go. Note! The first 3-4 chapters are very slow-paced. In my opinion, it really picks up from chapters 4-5 onward. I've added a few too many descriptions, and some dialogues could be shortened. The book will be revised once the entire draft is complete. At that time, certain scenes-or even entire chapters-may be removed.
