He had no identity, no "true" face.
He could be anyone you wished him to be, or anyone you needed him to be. After all, it's his job to make you believe everything he says. It's a requirement for someone who does what he does. 
Lies and deceit make up his world, and there is not a day that he doesn't see violence around him.  
Usually he does his job with precise accuracy and stealth, making him one of the best and the youngest in the business.
He's efficient, quiet and skillful. If anything, his perfect record of consistently completing assignments and jobs only gave him his reputation as one of the most desired for hire. But with his high reputation, comes high demand, and in this case it's no exception. The people who pay for what he provides always have very high expectations of him, believing in that untarnished record that he has built up through years of endless brutal training. 

He has never failed an assignment before. He is never meant to, and no matter what the circumstances, he's expected to complete his duties or die trying.

 Yet in this place where the supernatural lurks and nothing is as it seems, he may have more problems than he originally planned for. Now, he has to put on a mask for creatures who seem to even posses magic.

His name is Gale Nothing. He's the master of trickery and lies, a young boy of many masks. 

His assignment: To deceive all.
His goal: To get out of it unscathed... and breathing. 

"A mask tells us more than a face." - Oscar Wilde. 

Book #6 of the Blood-arc Series.
----------------------------------------
Are you real or from my dreams?
What is this place where the supernatural are, 
This place where nothing is as it seems.
Am I merely daydreaming or in my own world?
How can there be such things on the land, 
Like something in a fairy tale, something in a myth.
Gale Nothing, Gale Nothing.
What is this mysterious reality?

The Impossible Virgin Omega Wizard by rosy_frog
68 parts Ongoing
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.

He once told me no one knows the real him.I didn't think he meant it, and not in a good way. He is a straight A student, and everyone knows it, not to mention he is on the swim team. All that though isn't the real him, the real him hides deep within himself. ---------- "Can you please tell me what that was?" I nearly shout at him. All I get is silence. He keeps his back to me. "Please, I need some explanation." I beg. I stay still as he stops dead in his tracks. His body is tense and it's scarring me. He turns around slowly to face me with his hands at his sides. His eyes meet mine, but there is no spark of any emotion in them. They are cold and dark making me look away not being able to hold his deadly stare. I feel uneasy under his gaze, and i feel his eyes burning a hole in the side of my face. "No, I won't explain because it's not important." He says in a low, almost, growl. I flinch and look back into his eyes. I feel hurt by his words and I don't know why, but I know he sees it in my eyes. His faces flashes with regret but it's quickly covered up with his faces going back to it's hard cold look. I feel my heart stop and my face go pale. His look terrified me making me hold my breath. "Breath." He orders. I start to breathe again and just blink at him. "Now go." He orders me again. I flinch involuntarily at his tone and jump back slightly. "Please don't let me walk home alone." I beg in a quiet voice, looking down at my feet. The next thing I see are his black combat boots right in front of my shoes. I look up into his eyes and he looks down into mine confusion written all over his face. "How come you aren't running yet?" He questions searching my eyes. "I just can't walk home alone, please I'm scared." I hear him chuckle. "You aren't afraid of me? What can possibly be scarier than me?" He asks. "Well, I know you will keep me safe." "Why is that?" He questions raising an eyebrow at me. "You haven't hurt me." "Yet." He mutters, but I roll my eyes.

THE WHEEL OF DESTINY by LunaGarcia665
25 parts Ongoing
A soft exhale escaped through the Heavenly Emperor's lips, helplessly staring into the endless void, whising the universe would, in it's infinite apathy, allow him to return into it's cold embrace, never to see the sunlight again. After the blink of an eye, he said, so softly it may as well have been an illusion: -Why did it have to be like this... Why did you have to be like this? The immortal didn't answer. He simply knelt, his head bowing to the ground in silent submission. -I have loved a man more than duty. Yet I do not carry the shame of regret. Forgive me, my Lord, for I have sinned. Between heaven and earth, mortals and immortals coexist in a delicate balance. But when the actions of the past become entangled, destiny becomes a labyrinth with no exit. Zhao Wei, a young man marked by tragedy, is forced to confront his past and uncover the truth about the disappearance of his parents and the subsequent death of his brother in the shuiyue sect's fire by the arrival of Yuan Zhi, a mysterious young man who seems to be more than he reveals. Together, they must navigate a world of secrets and lies to uncover the truth about their past and their shared destiny. (Mortal x Inmortal) Original story I'm feeling silly, so I'll write silly things. ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ This is my first time writing, and english is not my first lenguage, I sincerely apologize for the redaction mistakes and plot holes that i have made :) Doing this for fun. :p probably no one will read this AI Generated cover.

"Breathe." He dipped his head down so that his lips were right at my ear, his strong arm wrapped securely around my waist, molding my body into his. "If you're going to fall apart,." He starts, teeth gritted. "Now's the time. I'll be here to put you back together when it's over." I squeezed my eyes shut again, and I did just that. I fell apart. ******* Secrets. Lies. Deception. Murder. I'd seen and done it all. And not willingly. So I left. I sacrificed my freedom to save myself, and the only way to ensure my own safety was to start over. Clean slate. New people. New me. But the last thing I expected when I arrived at Manonwell Prep Academy was to be bombarded by a boy-no, a man who held some unknown vendetta against me. Call it obsession, infatuation, hatred. To me it was all one in the same. He was everywhere I turned, like a shadow. Watching me. Taunting me. Haunting me. And it was all because of something I did to him a long time ago. It was something so bad that he couldn't stand me, that he wanted me dead, and the idea of making my life a living hell was something that he took pride in. But I didn't remember. I had no clue what I could've done to him in the past, but he was hellbent on pushing me until I did. My plans on starting over were shattered the minute I stepped inside that school. He was the type of person that demanded your attention without having to speak. He was untamed and wild and unhinged. But what he didn't know was that the Winter Travers that he knew in past, the one I didn't remember, was no longer alive. I was different. She was gone and I was here. And he was everything I should've been afraid of. Sinister, quiet, manipulative, but I knew it would be a cold day in hell before I let him win. Ronan was like gasoline waiting to be doused on the fire that inside me, and if he was ready to burn, then so was I.

Book one of six in the Chaotic Hearts series. BOOKS MUST BE READ IN ORDER. - RIVER MINTZ: Listen, I need you to hear me out. I'm a little bit impulsive, and I don't think anything through enough before I'm implementing my next plan of action. And it's because of my impulsiveness that I even ended up in this heartbreaking situation. See, I was falsely engaged to a man-a straight man named Louis-who did some awful things in his lifetime. You don't even want to know. But my parents had sent me to college and told me to discover life outside my wealth. I needed money. But when I found out what Louis had done, I immediately left. I didn't want anything to do with him. He was a vile human being. I should have known better. However, I didn't want my parents to know that I was someone's pet, so while they knew nothing about Louis, I also never told them we broke things off out of fear of my Mother's hound nose discovering what I'd done to make money during college. It's been five months since I ended things with him, and my Mom begged me to come home for Christmas this year and to bring my fiancé. And I couldn't very well say we were no longer together out of thin air, right? I had to figure something out, or my Mom would know I was lying. So, why did my ex-boyfriend, Seven Knight, appear in Chicago when he lived in Vermont, last I heard? Why did he agree so easily? Why was he so willing to go along with this? Mom found out my "fiancé" is Seven, and now she is begging us to get married on Christmas! What do I do?! We haven't seen or spoken in years because we... had to discover life outside of one another. But what I never told him? I never wanted that. And now, I have to pretend we're happily together, and it's confusing my brain. I still love him. I crave him. I need him. But I have doubt that he feels the same. It's been too long. I don't have much to offer. How could he still want me? Ha. What a fun Christmas holiday this will be, right?
