The Risen Empire
In the heart of ancient Rome, where power is seized with blood and betrayal lurks in every shadow, the mighty Valerius dynasty falls to ruin. The once-great ruler and his family are brutally slaughtered in a coup led by treacherous conspirators-except for one. Lucius Valerius, the sole heir, barely escapes the carnage, left for dead in the untamed wilderness beyond the city's walls. With nothing but his wits and an unyielding thirst for vengeance, Lucius is forced to fight, adapt, and survive in the brutal underworld of Rome. From the lawless slums to the gladiator pits, from war-torn battlefields to the grand halls of treachery, he gathers allies-outcasts, rebels, and warriors who, like him, have nothing left to lose. As the empire rots under the rule of corrupt tyrants, whispers of a fallen prince rising from the shadows begin to spread. Rome will tremble when Lucius returns-not as a desperate survivor, but as a force of reckoning. The throne was stolen. The empire corrupted. But the blood of emperors still flows in his veins. And he will stop at nothing to reclaim what is rightfully his.Complete

ᴋᴏɴᴇᴋᴏ (ᴋɪᴛᴛᴇɴ)
They took her name the moment she stepped inside. Osiris-Nine Luchèse was never meant to survive the night her father died. The underworld made sure of that. Empires shifted, contracts were signed, and the man they called the Cheshire Cat was reduced to a story whispered between bloodstained deals. But stories don't die. They evolve. Hidden behind reinforced walls and sterile smiles, Nine is placed in a facility built to "heal" what the world deems broken. Patients don't have names. Memories blur. Reality bends under the weight of quiet routines, whispered orders, and something far more calculated lurking beneath the surface. That's where Nikki finds her. Composed. Untouchable. Watching from the shadows like a queen who never needed a throne to rule. She doesn't offer Nine comfort. She offers purpose. Training begins. Not the kind you can see. Not the kind you can escape. Every word is chosen. Every truth is shaped. Every piece of grief is sharpened into something far more dangerous. Slowly, carefully, Nikki rebuilds Nine into something the underworld has never seen before- A weapon. Because across the board stands Naomi. Unpredictable. Unforgiving. A force of nature crowned in chaos and feared by men who have never feared anything in their lives. Where Nikki is silence, Naomi is spectacle. Where Nikki calculates, Naomi destroys. And somewhere between them... is Nine. Raised on vengeance.Driven by a past she can't fully remember.Hunting men she's never met-but has been taught to hate. As the lines between truth and manipulation begin to fracture, Nine is forced to confront a question far more dangerous than any enemy placed in front of her: Is she avenging her father...or finishing a war that was never hers to begin with? Because in a world where power wears a smile and madness is method, the deeper she goes- the less she knows if she's the hunter... or the thing being led. And by the time she finds the truth- someone will lose their head.

Her forehead touches mine, and I think my heart stops when I feel her lips lightly skim against mine. My eyes fall shut immediately while I try to remind myself how much of a bad idea this is. ☆Written:07/2023☆ ☆Not edited☆Complete
