VIDERE [BL]

In a world where different human-kind reside, their traits & power can only be passed to their children. Born from a loving Wraith father, and wise Satori mother, Videre and his sister struggle to understand their own unique power. Allied with the Sorcerer's Nation, the Lycan Kingdom's King Alpha didn't think twice to trample over the weak. Though Lycans are one of the strongest human-kind, they are mentally weak, thus their other enemy besides the Strzyga (Vampire)--the highly intelligent, telepathic Satori. After witnessing the death of their parents, the hybrid siblings lived their imprisoned, abused life inside the Lycan dungeons as tools of interrogation for King Alpha, until they're saved by another hybrid--a half-Lycan that dreamed of change. But freedom comes with a price. Escaping death from the hands of the hunting pack, Videre chances upon a cave. Falling. Drowning. Surviving. Living. And then, loving. He finds the secret city of the Great War's refugees, including the Hunter-kind. When he thought he can now settle down to heal slowly from painful memories & train with his newfound entity of a "best friend", he discovers the reason why he was allowed to know the secret, exiting the secret city, starting Aovialutre's quest, and eventually unveiling the truth of his family's murder. But who said his "friend" allowed Videre to leave him behind? "Don't think I'll let you off easy for leaving me". whispered the best friend, as he chases after his runaway wife.

Gamble in a dying world

[Warning: This book can get brutal, but don't expect action on every page. I place quite an emphasis on character design and development.] ......... You've read Apocalypse stories thousands of times, with courageous, cautious and even altruistic leads. Western, Eastern.. how about an African lead whose ability can actually get him killed?? Bernard once gambled on a chance to make his life better. To do what he actually wanted with his life despite what others wanted him to do. Though it's probably not the gamble you're thinking about... He succeeded. He got to live the life of his dreams, gave his family the support they needed and saw them thrive. That one moment gave him everything he dreamed of.. That was until the apocalypse came.... The planet quaked, the ozone was destroyed, harsh light eviscerated life on the planet.. Gravity was distorted and mutations occurred on some organic lives on the entire planet.. An enemy of unimaginable proportions descended on Earth, but the mystery behind him is one you probably haven't heard of many times... Bernardโ€™s hard work was destroyed. So was his family that he had finally made proud, as a brother and as a son. At the brink of death, a light shone amidst the chaos. A light that clung to many humans who were still alive... A light that gave them a fighting chance against their enemy... The humans awakened to abilities tied to their happiest memories. Abilities of different kinds with vast applications and some.... awkward connotations.. Bernard awakened a gift to fight through the terror and creatures that awaited. He awakened the Innate Ability: Gamble... ......... Vital Information for Readers: I'm sure most of you won't like the main character in the beginning. But I must stress that he will develop and experience a major development in an important arc that's not too far ahead. He won't always be on the pages for the first section of the story, but he will still have a prominent role. Other characters in this world are given a fair share of time to express themselves and develop too. A lot. The first 10 chapters set up the BASIC story, but they are NOT exposition. The story will be moving...quite fast, so be prepared for less action in that time period. ....... Check out my other book 'Bro! I'm not an Undead' Cover picture is mine... only the dice are from the net and edited on PS.. credit to the...owner...

My Innocent Girl Friend Is The Fallen Demoness

Winner of WFP #21 Descended and her life changed completely. Warning: Mature Content!! The unrequited love is the most dangerous weapon for a Demoness and she would conquer anything just to win in her love. The story unravels in heaven, hell and human realm for Volca to go with the adventures and meet new people, but she forgets one thing. An origin that cannot be changed. And the fate had it twisted for her. Will Volca get the Angel she has been in love for really long or give up on him choosing a new beginning that could either destroy or make her life better? We must find that out. What is it that the Demoness wants in the end? And what will Volca have to go through for the treasures? The rollercoaster life of the innocent Demoness to mesmerize and sway one's heart. Excerpt: Volca stood in front of the door knocking. It has been hard to realize the truth and find him. Ever since he left that way, she has been going through a hard time. "Are you there?" she called him. When she went to his office they informed that he is yet to join. She grew upset, and tensed. She desperately wanted to see him, tell him the truth. She cried, regretting her words. When he failed to open the door, she knelt down and touched the door, leaning her head against them. She didn't know he was on the other side doing the same. "Don't leave me," she said in the end. When she did, he immediately opened the door and took her in his arms carrying her into his condo. She remained silent, still crying, holding onto him, lying her head against his chest. She could smell the cologne on him as usual. He settled her down on the bed and looked at her. "Why did you take so long?" he asked her looking eagerly into her eyes. "I was stupid and...." but before she completed, he moved his head face towards her, taking her lips on his. She gripped her tight on the bed spread while her heart exploded inside. He slowly deepened his kiss and got on top of her, pushing her back on the bed. He saw how tensed she looked but too precious at the same time, and he kissed her again. There was a mischief glistening in her eyes. And she turned him, getting on top. She smirked, tearing his clothes, and throwing them away exposing his ripped body. He was enjoying it. She leaned and locked her eyes with his. Both breathing hard." This novel is going to spin off of my first novel, On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His, I mean it takes place in the same universe but two different stories. The novel will here portray the true heart of a Demoness and her life, trying to find the things she was not assigned, and if you are hoping for some heart fluttering romance, mind swaying, emotional swirl and happy moments, You can definitely read this novel.
