In a world where heroes wear gold and villains wear shadows, Aurelian-the golden poster boy of the Hero Syndicate-has spent years fighting Vex, the terrifying chaos-wielding villain who threatens society's fragile order. Or so he's been told.

But after a mission goes sideways, Aurelian is captured by Vex. Not tortured. Not killed. Just... kept. And the longer Aurelian stays in Vex's domain, the more cracks he starts to see in the narrative he's lived by. Why does Vex care about the civilians more than the Syndicate ever did? Why does he flinch at blood? Why does he know Aurelian's real name?

And why does Aurelian's heart beat faster when Vex gets too close?
"You think you know what justice is?" Vex growled, pacing like a caged storm. "You've been spoon-fed a story since you were twelve."

Lucien tugged at the cuffs binding him to the steel chair, lip bloody, eye swelling. "And you're just some misunderstood anti-hero? Save it."

Vex leaned down, so close Lucien could see the gold flecks in his storm-gray eyes. "If I'm the monster, why are you the one chained up by your own people?"

Silence. Except for thunder rolling in the distance.

"You don't want the truth," Vex whispered, voice like broken glass and midnight. "You want someone to hate. Even if that someone is the only one who ever gave a damn about you."

THE VILLAIN'S LOVE GROWS FOR HIM. by pushisinung
96 parts Complete Mature
"Aren't you tired of the way you live?" A voice inside of him would ask. "What can i do? I was born to live the life of a killing machine that dances to the command of my master. You think i never tried to run away from my life?" He would reply. That was him. The prodigy, the pride and praise of assassins. His hands were dyed with blood. Blood of men, women, children and the aged. He tried to rinse the blood out of his life but failed miserably. It was like a string attached to him, following him even in his dreams. "I see you are trying to run from your shell." The old woman said to him. "You are a pitiable person. When death welcomes you i pray you be free of your chains." She smiled as her cracked lips left her final breathe and her eyes lost its gleam. "Aaahhhhh!" The sound of painful scream echoed the room as he pressed his sword into his skin. He was ordered to kill the president of the country and bombard his residence. That was his last mission. But instead of leaving the house alive he stayed behind watching his piece of work decorate the walls of the building. He smiled. "It seems this is the only way to attain my own freedom." The sound of exploding bombs thundered into the ears of his comrades. They had realised what the man had done. However death brought him a new life. He was gifted the chance to live in freedom, to redeem himself and live the life he had wished for. But inside the world of a book. Life was all happy and beautiful. Until one unfortunate day he was entangled with the worst situation as he had to present himself before the antagonist of the book. Standing before him he caught his eye and was recruited as one of his personal guard. Moreover the protagonist of the story was very much to his distaste. But nothing could be worst than being objected as a sexual toy by the villain of the book, who had his ways with him right?

Adrian Reeves was a normal 25-year-old office worker with one obsession: the web novel "Chronicles of the Celestial Hero." For three years, he followed every chapter, commenting religiously, especially about his favorite character-the villain. Cassian Nyx, the Demon Lord. While other readers celebrated when the hero defeated him in the final chapter, Adrian raged. Cassian deserved better. Deserved happiness. Deserved a chance at redemption. His last comment before dying in a car accident: "If I were in this world, I'd save the villain. I'd give him the love he never received. I'd change his fate." The universe listened. Adrian wakes up inside the novel-but not as a hero. Not as a side character. He's reborn as Elian Ashford, the crown prince of the Celestial Kingdom... and the villain's destined enemy who's fated to seal Cassian away forever. Except the plot has already gone wrong. Instead of meeting Cassian during the climactic war (fifteen years from now), Adrian-now Elian-encounters the Demon Lord at age 18, during a diplomatic mission that wasn't in the original novel. And worse: the moment their eyes meet, an ancient contract activates. A soul-binding contract that marks them as fated pairs. Cassian, who in the novel never loved anyone, who became a monster because of loneliness and betrayal, is now bound to the one person who's supposed to destroy him. And he knows it. "You're supposed to seal me away," Cassian says, dark eyes gleaming with dangerous interest. "So why do you look at me like that? Like you're trying to save me instead?" Because Adrian knows the truth. Knows that Cassian becomes a villain because everyone he trusted betrayed him. Knows that the "hero" of the original story is actually manipulating events for power. Knows that Cassian's tragic fate can be changed. But changing fate means going against the novel's plot. Means choosing the villain over his own kingdom.

*ੈ✩‧₊˚╰┈➤❘ Zombies four (4) Fanfic ❘ Victor Barton✶ ❝You think I was cold because I wanted to be?, I was taught that love is the first lie they use to kill you. ❞ ❝Then let me be the one who proves it wrong.❞ 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇, In a world divided by bloodlines, powers, and centuries of mistrust, Aurelia Vire Mythryn never asked to be the one holding it all together. Born a half-witch, half-Mythryn, she's powerful, unpredictable, and haunted by visions she doesn't fully understand. Her people expect her to be a weapon. Her mother expects her to obey. And the boy she's supposed to hate? He just might be the only one who sees her for who she really is. When an ancient prophecy resurfaces and three supernatural factions-Vampires, Daylighters, and Mythryns-are forced to compete in a deadly game for control of the Blood Fruit, Aurelia finds herself torn between loyalty and love, vengeance and peace. With war on the horizon and her own powers spiraling, she must decide: follow the path carved for her, or burn it down and make her own. Caught between Victor-the brooding vampire with a hidden heart-and the expectations of her people, Aurelia's choices could heal the supernatural world...or destroy it completely. Romance. Betrayal. Found family. And a girl who refuses to be anyone's pawn. This is not your average enemies-to-lovers story. This is the battle for a future no one saw coming.

This is a boy x boy fan fiction. Don't like gay love then move on. This isn't the story for you. There will be cursing in this story. If you don't like profanity please move on. Thank you. ============================ Cover by: JaeMi1 ============================ Have you ever met a vampire? No? Ah, lucky you. Vampires are a pain in the ass. Trust me I've met a couple. Thanks to that stupid ass Ohm I was stalked, forced to co-habitat, and pushed into some weird confusing battle going on for a stupid title. Pain in the asses! The biggest issue was the feelings stirring inside me. They're weird and icky. No matter what I do I can't stop them. And they get worse whenever that jerk, Phun, is near me. My heart constricts and my brain gets weird. Can't I just go back to my peaceful life, please? Excerpt: I shuffled my feet, staring down at them, growing far more uncomfortable than I ever wanted to be. I heard a deep chuckle roll from him. My eyes shot up to meet his. I had to swallow down my agitation as his eyes twinkled with amusement. Can you believe it? The bastard found my reactions funny! My face crumbled into a sneer. I slammed my hands on the arms of my chair and pushed myself up. I glared at the bastard, trying my best to make my face as ruthless as I could. The infuriating man chuckled again, his smirk blooming into a full smile. I had to force down whatever feelings was bubbling up. He had an amazing smile. Heart racing and knee melting type of amazing. =============================== This is an AU fan fiction. I do not own the characters portrayed in this story, I merely asked them to dance to a different beat. The characters are created and owned by INDRYTIMES ( twitter: @hedshew) Show her love for these wonderful characters and her amazing story. ===============================
