In a world secretly controlled by the Lords of the Matrix, humanity's reality is shaped by implanted neural chips, creating an illusion of free will. But the origins of this control stretch back thousands of years, to an era when primitive tribes and chieftains made pacts with alien beings. These ancient leaders traded the Earth's life-force-Geo-Ether-for immortality, laying the foundation for the Matrix.
William thought he was a soldier fighting wars for his country.
He was wrong. After a brutal accident awakens abilities he was never meant to have, William discovers a truth hidden for thousands of years: humanity has never been in control.
The pyramids were never tombs.
History was never real.
And the world is not what it seems.
A secret order known as the Lords of the Matrix has been harvesting the Earth's core for an alien civilization, trading the planet's life-force in exchange for immortality and power. Within two years, Earth will be drained dry... and the elite plan to escape into a new reality, leaving humanity to die.
Now hunted by the very system he once served, William must join a hidden resistance, hijack alien technology, and wage war against beings who see humans as nothing more than fuel.
But the deeper he goes, the more terrifying the truth becomes:
The Matrix isn't just controlling the world. It's rewriting reality itself. And William may be the only variable that can break it.

A Journey Through Time
What if you woke up one morning... and everything around you belonged to another century? One moment, I was moving through my mundane routine. The next, a mysterious silver box - and a cryptic warning - hurled me through time. All I ever wanted was a simple life: quiet, steady, normal. Instead, I've landed in a world where I hold no power, know no one, and understand nothing about the rules shaping every breath I take. To survive, I have to learn the laws of a world determined to silence me - and find a way home before it's too late, especially with a war on the horizon. But how do you change the course of history when you barely understand how it began? And just when I think things can't get any more complicated, a pair of ocean-blue eyes threatens to rewrite everything I thought I wanted. Can I return to the life I lost? Or will the past - and the man I was never meant to meet - change my future forever? Author's Note: For readers who crave time-travel romance, historical drama, and slow-burn love that keeps you up way past midnight - welcome. You're in the right place.Complete

The Pharaoh's Dancer
"Do you know what to do, Amunet?" A voice as sweet as silk whispered into the young girl's ear. Amunet didn't look over her shoulder, but shifted uncomfortably on her bare feet before nodding her head. A soft hand touched her back and urged her forward. All eyes turned towards the girl dressed in transparent linen with her dark hair tumbling down her back and her violet eyes lined by kohl. Every movement caused the jewels on her wrists and ankles to dangle and shimmer in the light. She raised her head and found the Pharaoh's transfixed stare. His jade eyes narrowed in on hers and the room became still and silent. Amunet bowed and, at the pluck of a harp string, began to dance. --- DISCLAIMER: this story is NOT historically accurate.
