"There's a prison for fallen gods... and one of them just escaped."
That's how the story was supposed to start.
But Micah Key doesn't remember being a god.
A quiet student at UNC with no real history, Micah lives on the edge of invisibility-no high school record, no memories before age thirteen, and strange gaps in how the world responds to him. But when a door that shouldn't exist opens into a place that defies logic-a place between broken dimensions and forgotten time-Micah stumbles into the impossible: a prison for gods long erased from reality. And someone... escapes.
Him.
Plagued by visions that feel like memories, pulled toward places he shouldn't know, and haunted by the whispers of beings that claim to have served, fought, or betrayed him, Micah begins to unravel the truth:
He is not just a boy.
He is not just human.
He is Allevin-the god of origin, perception, and the in-between-sealed away by forces too ancient to name, forgotten by everyone, including himself.
But something has awakened him.
And now, gods are stirring.
The world is cracking.
And nothing-including Micah himself-will ever be the same.
A choice was made, long ago, to erase what should have been remembered.
But now, as everything unravels, he must face what was lost-and decide if he's ready to reclaim it.

Rise of the ancient god: Reborn of chaos.
The God of Chaos was feared and worshiped in equal measure-a being of boundless destruction who stood alone against the apocalyptic invaders from another universe. But even gods fall. Betrayed and torn apart, he met his end in a war he could not win. Yet death was not the end. Reincarnated as Carson, a powerless boy in a world where humanity evolves beyond its limits, he is nothing but a fragile existence, mocked and discarded. No strength, no abilities-just a weak body destined to be crushed under the weight of a merciless world. Then came the spider. Venom burned through his veins, dragging him toward oblivion. As the last flicker of life began to fade, a voice-cold and divine-whispered into the void: [Ding!] [Congratulations. You have been chosen as the inheritor of the previous master's legacy.] [Will you accept? (Yes/No)] With that choice, the abyss awakened within him. The power of an ancient god stirs once more, but it is twisted, corrupted hungering for vengeance. The world that cast him aside will soon remember the name they tried to erase. And this time, chaos will reign. ----- (A/N: If you notice any errors, broken contents while reading please let me know, I'll go back and make the necessary corrections.) (Disclaimer: This world is pure fantasy and has no relations to reality! If you see cities and countries that are similar to those of real life it is purely coincidence.)
Blessed Cursed
In a world of silences, two broken souls try to find a promise loud enough to live for. Will they dare to hear it? Love save them. Love destroys them. And still - will they hold on? Alex Díaz Percy has stopped feeling. He drifts through life like a ghost in a school uniform-numb, sarcastic, sketching unfinished drawings no one sees. Haunted by a past he refuses to confront, he's built his world around distance. Then Leo arrives. Leo Malik Brown shines too brightly for his own good. Sweet, impulsive, emotionally raw, and teetering on collapse, he hides behind music, laughter, and the hope that love-if real-can keep someone from falling apart. But with a crumbling family and unspoken grief, he's barely hanging on. Their quiet friendship deepens into something powerful-but also dangerous. One is terrified to feel, the other is already breaking. When Leo is forced to leave just as their bond solidifies, both must confront what they've been avoiding: for Leo, whether he deserves love; for Alex, whether he's willing to lose again. Told in lyrical, alternating POVs, Blessed Cursed is a raw exploration of queer identity, emotional repression, and the unbearable intimacy of being truly seen. It's about two fractured souls learning to stay-for each other, and for themselves. ... It's not a typical YA story-while it follows young characters, it explores complex emotions, inner struggles, and moral ambiguities in a raw, realistic way. The focus is on the characters' minds and feelings, their fears, desires, and the ways they navigate difficult, often dark situations. It's thoughtful, emotional, and serious-designed to make readers reflect and feel deeply. I hope you like it 🤧

All Started With A Case
Ten years. A decade stripped away behind concrete and steel, all because of a lie whispered on the stand. He walked out of the prison gates not as the promising, middle-class boy who loved his girlfriend, but as a ghost, a man aged by undeserved vengeance, his only compass the memory of that last, glittering high school prom. He remembered the police lights bleeding into the carnival music, the whispers turning into screams, and the feel of the cold steel bracelet snapping around his wrist. He was framed for the murder of the girl he adored, a perfect life shattered by the cruel, calculated perjury of one man: Professor Paul. The city had changed, but He hadn't. He'd just become sharper, quieter, and infinitely more dangerous. The debt was due. Professor Paul was finally going to pay for the decade he lost. The plan was simple: leverage. The most precious commodity, his daughter. His freedom, still tainted by a decade of prison grime, was now tethered to the very family he intended to destroy. The game was no longer about kidnapping. It was about the truth, and the cost was going to be everything. The final reckoning starts now.Complete
