Guardian of the Rift: Book 1 - New Beginnings (A Hawthorne Legacy Series)
He blames himself for letting his guard down - and dooming his entire family. Now, burdened by guilt and driven by the need to make things right, Axton sets out to find others like him. People with talents. Together, they'll stand against the darkness his ancestors unleashed... and forge a new generation of Guardians to protect the world from what's coming.

This story began with a dream I had as a young adult - one I never forgot. Years later, I finally wrote it down, and with a little encouragement (and a lot of proof reading from my amazing wife), it's grown into something bigger than I ever imagined.

We're releasing chapters regularly, and there are already two full arcs written - with a third in progress.
Stick around. This world has a lot more secrets to reveal.

Enjoy the ride.

The little gluttonous child needs to eat by Alkaysare
157 parts Ongoing
Yao Yao was born as a little glutton, her appetite rivaling half a mountain. One day, the old Taoist who adopted her passed away in meditation. At just three and a half years old, Yao Yao had no choice but to pack her small bag and head down the mountain to find her senior master. By chance, she ended up saving a wealthy tycoon from a car accident and became the adopted daughter of the prestigious Gu family. At first, everyone in the Gu family opposed the idea. The Gu family matriarch tapped her cane and said, "Raising someone else's child? Careful not to end up with an ingrate!" The Gu family head, Gu Xuesong, said indifferently, "Picked up halfway? Who knows what kind of trouble she might bring." From the eldest to the seventh brother, their response was unanimous: "We don't want a sister!" But this little girl, rejected by the entire family, proved herself after joining the Gu household. She resolved the business partner issues that even Gu Xuesong couldn't handle, bringing in so many contracts that they couldn't sign them all. She cured the Gu matriarch's chronic leg pain, to the point where the old lady was now striding around effortlessly... Even the seven Gu brothers, one after another, benefited greatly from her presence. It was only then that the Gu family realized they had brought home a treasure. From then on, the Gu family's attitude completely changed. The Gu matriarch: "Yao Yao, do you want some cream puffs? Grandma will buy them for you." Gu Xuesong: "Yao Yao, do you want a private jet? Daddy will have one sent over to take you for a ride." The Gu brothers: "Yao Yao, do you want..." And so, Yao Yao secured herself a meal ticket-one of the highest quality! ================== Note: get access to 100+ Advance Chapters on my patreon.com/flokixy

152 parts Complete
Fang Lingchu was just an ordinary office worker, heading home after work with her design plans still in hand, until she blinked and found herself in the middle of an ancient imperial drama. Bound to a strange system, all her stray thoughts and "melon-eating" commentary now spill directly into the minds of everyone around her. ----- Fang Lingchu: [Your Majesty, don't waste time in court. Your concubine and your own mother are plotting to kill you. Once you're gone, the throne belongs to someone else.] Emperor Chongde: ...Kill them all! Fang Lingchu: [Brother, your future wife is cheating at Qingfeng Baiyu Tower right now. If you marry her, disaster will ruin our entire family.] Fang Lingxing: ...This engagement is canceled! Fang Lingchu: [Prime Minister Su, take a better look at your children. All that talent, yet every single one dies tragically. Tsk, tsk-what a pity.] Prime Minister Su: (sobbing) "Your Majesty, please grant me justice!" Fang Lingchu: [Oh? Didn't expect General Han to be that amazing~] Onlookers: Eating melons (gossip) from Fang Lingchu is truly the best! General Han: "No, wait! It's not what it looks like!" ------ At first, the entire court opposed a woman stepping into officialdom. Yet somehow, Fang Lingchu keeps "predicting disasters," uncovering scandals, and exposing conspiracies. ...And before anyone realizes it, this little melon-eating official has risen higher and higher in rank, while all of court is left in chaos.

Yes, it is sad... I am not prone to drama like the rest of you. Our lives are encompassed with monotonous events, the usual really: eat, sleep, work, repeat. But honestly, am I complaining? I can, I could have... But the question remains, do I even have the energy to spark up a fire? We could be flowers, adorning ourselves to appear more attractive for the bees' ocellus. Or glow brighter than the sun to entice. But why go through all that hustle when we can just live through the eyes of another? Seems simpler enough anyway. Suck the adrenaline rush of the stunners. The ones that even with just a sneeze, the entire earth would shake, sprinting towards them. Their being, the forbidden tree, strutting at the centre of the Garden of Eden. Their souls, Magnetite. We could attempt. But I do not want to. I try as much as possible to stay away from the disease. As thrilling as it may be: he who will swallow the apple seed must consider the size of his stomach. So why spend a thousand back-breaking years thereafter mopping up the residue? Have the moles drag down your name into the pits with them. Surely, we are not that desperate, are we? Never eye the wife of thy neighbour in fear that she just might be a white fowl with beautiful feathers. So why can I not just stay in my lane? Why can't we? So join in, enter my mind and live out your most exciting reality through the eyes of others. Read it, watch it, envision it. Better than allowing life to feed us up with a spoon of chaos, attracting a series of tornadoes into our mundane worlds. And maybe, we might just fall in love.

There is a kind of silence that comes just before thunder-heavy, suffocating. That was the silence in Sahastra Tripathi's heart. He had walked away from privilege and power-for love. For Sparshika. But she wasn't Sparshika. She was Urvi. And everything he had abandoned was now burning behind him. "What happened, Urvi? Did you forget your name or think I was a fool?" "I... I was going to tell you-" Two strides. He grabbed her hair. CRACK! Her head slammed into the kitchen counter. Plates shattered. She cried out, collapsing, blood gushing from her forehead. "Sahastra ji!" she whimpered. He yanked her back up. SLAP! Her cheek snapped sideways. She fell again, lip split open. "Please don't hit me..." He pressed his shoe on her cheek, grinding it into the marble. "You lied to me. Your name, your past-everything was a lie." "No... I love you!" He crouched, grabbed her face. His eyes burned. "My father was on the brink of death... because of you." She blinked, stunned. "What?" "Still pretending?" SLAP! She hit the floor again. "I really don't know..." He didn't let her finish. He lifted her, threw her over his shoulder, stormed into the bedroom and threw her onto the bed. His belt came off. He tied her wrists to the bedposts-tight, ruthless. He crouched again, jaw clenched. "Because of you, my father is in this condition." "You gave away his location, didn't you?" "But too bad... he survived." "But now he can't walk. And neither will you." He grabbed her foot-twisted. CRACK! She screamed. He smiled darkly. "Don't stop screaming. Your pain soothes me." He grabbed her other foot. Twisted-slow, calculated. Stopped just before the break. "I could break it... but not yet." "I'll break you. And your legs. Slowly." He stood, breath ragged. Eyes hollow. "Just like my father can't walk... you never will." He turned, slammed the door. Urvi lay tied, broken, bleeding. She could no longer tell what hurt more-her body, or her heart.

I Became the Sub-Villain with Highly Intelligent Triplet Sons (BL)

97 parts Ongoing

Ryu Seo-woo is an award-winning best vocalist who tragically died in a plane crash and transmigrated to a BL novel, "Serenade Me, My Angel," which he read out of boredom. He transmigrated into the body of the sub-villain, who shares his name but is a C-list singer with a ruined voice due to throat damage. Living in a decrepit house with his five-year-old triplet sons (Seo-jun, Seo-min, and Seo-jin) who despise him for years of neglect and verbal abuse, Seo-woo is determined to rewrite their lives. The novel's main couple, the stoic CEO Moon Woo-seok and his innocent, angelic singer Jin Yu-jin, are destined for a happy ending. In the original story, Seo-woo's character dies in a fire, leaving his genius triplets to be adopted by the main couple. However, the transmigrated Seo-woo has no intention of dying or letting the original plot play out. Can he win over his sons and forge a new path?
