A Drink Before Battle [MxM] ✅
General Sevei is of the firm opinion that Nobles are shady and Alchemists even shadier. Noble Alchemists are the absolute worst. He is not looking forward to partnering with one to guard the border. Upon their introduction, though, it would seem they have already met... under very intimate circumstances. Oh...,**** Set in the same world as Salvage, but we're going back in time for some Medieval sword and sorcery! This wholesome, happy-endings-all-around, smutty queer fantasy romance features an M/M main couple along with a host of supporting characters bringing some trans rep, some pan rep, some sex worker positivity, and even a straight ally who tries his darndest, bless his little puppy heart. Plenty of fluff, plenty of sexy times, a few funny bits, and our gang do all make it through the Horrors - but there is a war on, so there's also plenty of angst and a bit of bloody violence along the way. CW: Violence, violent death (no main characters), homophobic society, internalized homophobia and closeting, internalized transphobia (supporting character), war veteran ptsd, slavery (supporting character - no abuse of this character is depicted and sentiments are anti-slavery), strong language, detailed sexual content (all consensual), discussion of sex work.Lengkap
The Silence Between Us
Ezra has always kept his head down. With a voice that falters and a past that bruises quietly, he's learned that silence is safer than being seen. Until Lucien Voss sees him. Lucien doesn't believe in accidents. He doesn't believe in mercy, or kindness, or fate. But he believes in control-and Ezra's silence feels like something he needs to own. People say Lucien is cruel. Dangerous. A Voss never touches what he doesn't plan to break. But this time... he touches Ezra. "You're quiet because you're scared. "But I hear you just fine, Ezra. And that's what makes this fun." What begins as curiosity turns into obsession. And Lucien? He doesn't know how to love without breaking everything in his path. TUNE IN TO KNOW THEIR STORY 🩵Lengkap
The Chronicles of Arnora: The Curse of the Blood Moon
The Curse of the Blood Moon In the Zemorian Empire, monsters aren't just born-they're made. Under the iron fist of Emperor Zandar, the laws of nature have been discarded. In secret laboratories and forgotten towers, the Empire is perfecting the unthinkable: a race of human-vampire hybrids designed for a war that will set the world of Arnora ablaze. When a close friend is taken by these abominations, Owin-a Slayer with a mysterious power building behind his eyes-and Aqua Moonfall, a high-ranking mage, must lead a desperate rescue mission. Their journey will take them from the shifting halls of the Elysium Tower to the fortress of Whitestone, where they must face the Four Generals of Zhagos, each a masterpiece of dark evolution. But as the Blood Moon rises to its zenith, the group realizes that the greatest threat might not be the army of hybrids outside their door, but the secrets hidden within their own party. In a world where light can be as destructive as darkness, the price of victory may be higher than any of them are willing to pay. The hunt has begun. The moon is bleeding. And no one is safe. Book One is finally complete, please look forward to Book Two, The Chronicles of Arnora: The Zemorian Invasion! *If any names in my story are that of real world people it's completely coincidental, I use a random name generator, which creates countless names, to help with the naming of some of my characters.Lengkap

My Most Tragic Villainess
"If you don't get enough sleep, you'll die." Is something that I've just figured out lately. With a 14 days of not sleeping streak, the light came and took me to another world. A world of novel, my novel. You see, I was up all night for the whole 2 weeks writing my novel named "Dreadful love". It had a decent amount of readers. And I, the author is famous as well, why's that? Because my novels are known to always have legendary tragic twist and turns, I even kill my lead characters, Hehe. So I transmigrated... To my own novel... And it just had to be this one. And I just had to be the villain... Though it's all goods, since all the characters have tragic lives. But this person that I'm in is ten times more tragic than all of the other characters! She- not important.
Broken Dominion
[Your World has been selected. Initialising synchronisation with 'Ascension.'] [From this point on, your world is no longer yours. Your world has been overtaken by the game-'Ascension'-and it will transform this world into a place where only the fittest survive. And please do keep trying to survive so our Lord may enjoy your vain attempts to preserve your pathetic lives.] The world has been taken over by a game created by 'The Lord, ' and humanity, as inept as they are, is forced to fight for their lives. Some discovered new powers in this twisted world, but whether they would be enough to save humanity remains uncertain. ... Raven Dmitry, once an ordinary teenager, lost everything to cruelty and now lives as a slave to the mafia. Years of pain and torment have stripped him of his humanity, leaving only a thirst for vengeance. When Ascension offered him a chance that others would never receive, the ability to choose his attributes, Raven seized it. Not to save others, but to destroy those who wronged him and carve a path to absolute power. Twisted by tragedy and driven by revenge, Raven will use everything and everyone to rise higher in this new world. How far can a broken man climb in a reality where power decides all? Join him as he paves his path to the top, no matter the cost.
By Day and by Night
Through the darkness, the computer screen illuminated the pale skin of Adelae's face around the black mask. Scrolling through the submitted questions, she came across one that made her smile. "Dear Lady Shade," She read aloud to herself. "Why did you choose to be a villain instead of a hero?" She chuckled, shaking her head at the simple, loaded question, before selecting it and opening the page to write a reply. "Hello Blogger KittyStan41. I bet you're expecting the classic tragic backstory in response to this question." she typed. " Dead parents, treated like trash as a kid, and it all came to a choice between rising to defeat my inner demons or succumbing to them. Well, my real answer is possibly something you haven't considered about the world of Heroes and Villains. Answer this for me, what is the goal of a hero? To make the world a better place, perhaps? No, dear KittyStan41. The classic goals of the Hero might seem epic and noble, but in the end it all comes down to stopping the Villain. What kind of life is that, when your only goals derive from the actions of someone else? Your whole life is used up as a preventative measure. Now does that sound like a good way to live? "I chose to be a villain not because I enjoy hurting people, but because I have goals that I plan to achieve. Don't bother asking what they are. If I told you, everyone would know, and people (baby heroes) would get in the way. Then how would I achieve them? I aspire to more. Is there need for a better reason?"Lengkap

Ophuthis: Unfaltering Fidelity
Demise and despair, spoke the World. Aided by the tribulations and Tartarean of Reality. Knowing that, persistence and tenacity, the people still professed notwithstanding. The races forlorn, impotent and insignificant. What more could they oppose against a Supreme? Proved across the world his puissance once, now he awakens to complete what he had already begun. With the scars of the past still lingers, how could the rest react to the omnipotent? Nay iniquitous omnipotent? Peril is nigh to the people. Despite their futile resistance, it is still disheartening to know that the dastardly remains superior. Should they lose, they know that sempiternal dolor awaits them. The world dances in the hands of the flagitious Ophuthis. Truly, there is no other way, but to either perish, or swear Unfaltering Fidelity unto the Great One. What way must one choose? --Foreword-- This is me about a year from completing this volume, needless to say, I have no plans on expanding this story further though I left the story with a lot of loose ends and by no means a fully flushed ending. This story was also my very first take on writing fantasy, and novels for that matter. Which is why, please expect some amateurish way of writing, and please tread with caution, patience and understanding. I have made and tried several other separate stories apart from Ophuthis, experimenting with different themes, characters, setting and timeline, with my way of conveying words better and better with each new story. I have no plans of putting any of those works here on Wattpad however, as I still think I can muster an even better story fit for this platform. My time's still young, with a lot of fronts to grow as an author and writer. Hopefully, if fate wills, all shall align. Thank you, and have a fun read.Lengkap
