Trapped Away, Inside of a Game [Book 1]

Everyone has 10 lives, only 1 has 20 lives, but it's not limited. Everyone is in a game, simulated by various survival games. Everyone is a player, a subject to this horrific game.

You willingly join, thinking this is just a multiplayer survival game. Until you find out, you're not alone in this game, and there's no leaving.

/They/ are here.
/They/ are hunting you.
You are alone with /Them/.

Join Ancius Melodus in this journey of finding out how to survive this game. Join him in his journey on finding his purpose in this game and how he manages to escape every possible death imaginable. Join him to experience betrayal and love until his last breath.

Trapped in a video game, Ancius has to remember the survival and hunting skills that his grandfather taught him. This game is not like most other survival-type games, it's alive and living even though no one ages. Every corner, Ancius faces new creatures, new entities that shouldn't belong in the game.

Will Ancius find a way to live in this dreadful haunting game that he now calls life?

[AN: There is mixed POVs between the two main characters. There is going to be death, gore, and explicit romance. Please do not read if you're uncomfortable with explicit details. This is going to be a male x creature/entity romance, the creature is not fully male nor female but a mix of both.]
