The Superior Rebirth: A Hero's Awakening
He was stolen before he could be named. Experimented on before he could walk. And somewhere in the shadows - an enemy has been watching him ever since. Xavier didn't choose this life. He didn't choose the prophecy, the power, or the war closing in around him. What he did choose - what he chooses every single day - are the ideals his father gave him: that love is worth dying for, and that protecting others is reason enough to keep standing. But the force hunting Xavier's world has been preparing for decades. Patient. Methodical. Always smiling. Its ambition doesn't stop at conquest or empire - it reaches for godhood itself, for the power to rewrite reality and remake the world in the image of one man's vision. A world where only the worthy survive. Where he alone decides what worthy means. One boy carrying his father's ideals. One genius who believes his vision justifies every cost. And between them - a question that cuts deeper than any blade: Is Xavier a hero because fate decided he would be? Or because he chose to be, despite everything it costs him? The Superior Rebirth is a dark fantasy epic about heroism, love, sacrifice, and the difference between the destiny you're handed and the one you carve out yourself - set against the smoke and ambition of an industrial age where power is the only currency that matters. This is not a story about becoming powerful. It is a story about becoming worthy of the people who believed in you.

The Impossible Virgin Omega Wizard
On his 30th birthday, the omega YooJin discovers that he is a wizard in the most unexpected way possible, in a rich club meant for alphas and in front of one of the most prominent and sought after alphas in the country, right after nearly punching said alpha in the face. But these wizards are different from those he knew of from movies and comics, instead they are mysteriously tied to pheromones. To his surprise, he discovers that he is the only omega to have ever manifested as a wizard and it had something to do with the fact that he was still a virgin at the ripe age of 30 (who knew that the virginity he had protected with his life would come in so handy?). Through this newfound discovery, he is taken to a place called the 'Academy' where alphas are trained to be hunters. He then stumbles upon a world full of dungeons, monsters (previously believed to simply be of legend), class manifestations tied to emotions, houses carved into trees, wizards, mana, magic, prejudice, and well... love.... eh. But this world had previously been an alphas only club and now he must face opposition that, as an omega, he has had to face all his life but in a setting that is completely unlike anything he had ever experienced before, all while trying to uncover the secret as to why he, an omega, was called to this world in the first place.... #Enemies-ish to Lovers. Underdog Wins. Slow burn. Harry Potter-esque but... with a 30 year old virgin omega & dungeons in an Eastern setting. Cover :D commissioned from the amazing MiraToons *A lot of this world will have shamanistic elements entwined with the magic (as we know it in the western world). This is written in memory of my grandmother who was a well respected shaman in our community.

I'm using the term Immortal as in god/angel this is not a Chinese manhua based storyComplete
Once Upon a Changeling by V. J. Chambers
Things started going wrong for Russ Knight last year. He found out his girlfriend was cheating on him when she gave birth at the junior prom and left the baby to die in a trashcan. Russ didn’t even know she was pregnant. Hell, he thought they were saving themselves for each other. Now, locked in her padded cell, his girlfriend is screaming that she was just trying to get the faeries to give her baby back. Russ doesn’t buy it. But to shut her up, Russ tries a trick the old legends say will work, and the baby starts swearing and begging to be taken back to Faerie. He’s got to accept the truth: the kid he’s raising is a faerie changeling. The faeries are going to sacrifice the real baby at the Equinox if Russ can’t get them to switch again. But the only person who can get the baby back is a biological parent, and Russ’ girlfriend certainly can’t help. To save an innocent life, Russ will face ancient faeries with razor-like teeth, wrestle snarling skeleton dogs, and, maybe worst of all, track down every guy his girlfriend was sleeping with last year in the hopes of finding the baby’s real father. And apparently, the father could be half his senior class.Complete
