This is the dilemma of Eric, a young DJ of an evening segment to a radio station. He bought a book at a small second hand bookstore. When he got home, he tried to browse the pages of the book. He then noticed that at the last blank pages of the book, a letter was written. It started with the greeting, "Yam" and ended with "Your Dad" It is actually a letter of a dying father to his daughter whom he had not talked to for ages. Having read it several times, Eric wanted to give the book to the daughter but his dilemma is he does not know where to look for her. The only clue that he has is the simple greeting, "Yam."
The letter kept on bugging him, as if pleading to be sent to the addressee. What will he do? Would Eric be able to give the dying message of the father to his daughter?

If a citizen broke a few minor laws, they would go for Rebirth, where they are born with the same personality and mind, just different looks.

My Stupid Alpha
Summary "Dad!" My daughter laughed at his father. "We couldn't solve the horoscope!" "Oh! I thought we have to solve it like those puzzles." My mate laughed awkwardly and little embarrassed because his own daughter corrected him. "What about this, this section looks fun to read." "The Obituary?" "Yeah, it's similar to the show that you love watching." "Dad!" My daughter giggled. "The show was "The Observatory" not "The Obituary!" I simply smiled at their little interaction on the living floor. I won't deny that my mate was stupid because he really was. But if someone dared to harm him, I'll make sure that it will be their last day on earth.

If you're here to know, then, place your ass on a chair. I promise, it won't be long.Complete

These fierce guardians, bound by their duty to protect humanity, find an unexpected connection with a humble guardian outfitter named Y/N L/N. Though NOT a guardian, Y/N crafts and enhances gear with unwavering dedication, dazzling flair, and unrivaled beauty. All taught to him by Eva Levante, an elder who is responsible for all the wonderful techniques he uses now. However, Y/N has a problem of his own, a fight against his own darkness if you will, whilst intertwining with these Guardians in ways he never imagined. Y/N has been battling with cancer, incurable under most circumstances, and is now reaching his final shape. The fireteam of guardians and Y/N eventually discover that even in the face of death, love and friendship can blossom. This tale explores the power of what a connection can do in face of inevitable loss. WARNING: This story is mature, expect mature things. Also, lore and things are bound to be wrong.
