Hunting Midnight

“The problems concerning demons and evil clocks began like many of my problems do: with a terrible wifi connection.” • • • • Alena moved to a small town to escape her past and start a restaurant, not to tangle with a demon. But when the monster messes with her wifi, ruins her roommate's date, and threatens to commit mass murder, she's forced to put her plans on hold. Impossible phenomena and a chaotic stalker lead her to a grandfather clock with backward numbers. The ghost inside believes she's there to help it escape, and offers to show her the world through its eyes. With one fateful glimpse, Alena enters a long entrenched battle for the sovereignty of the soul. Volume One of Hunting Midnight is part paranormal adventure, part urban progression fantasy. It delivers as much charm as it does creepshow, as many smiles as it does spooks, and introduces an unforgettably unique cast of villains and heroes. • • • • What to expect • Schedule: 3+ chapters per week, avg. 2,000 words per chapter • POV: Single 1st-person • FMC: Realistically flawed, competent, proactive, spunky, sarcastic • Progression: Vol 1 is soft-magic discovery. Vol 2 aims to explore an emerging system (light stats). • Tone: A blend of urban fantasy, horror, and thriller—with a dash of good humour • Romance: Low focus, no harem. (Minor mature themes). • Status: Volume 1 is complete at 111 chapters. Patreon = 20 advance chapters

I Stole A Dead Goddess's Blessing and Now She Won't Leave Me Alone

The color of a Divine Core determines your worth—and Anadis Kalonis awakened the worst one possible. Anadis had wanted to be a Blessen since he was five. He trained for years, learned to survive dangerous situations, and studied the gods rigorously so that by the time he was old enough for the Awakening Ceremony, his chances of being chosen by a God and surviving the Blessed Trial would be nearly guaranteed. But it still wasn't enough. He got the worst Divine Core possible—kids with that core didn't survive the Blessed Trial. He also didn't expect his sister and his twin to awaken Divine cores, and far better ones than his. But what he truly did not expect in a hundred years was for a goddess to fall from the sky, one who supposedly died fifteen centuries ago. And get this, she wanted his brother for herself. And she wanted to kill Anadis. Of course she did… Finally, when the Divine Voice attempted to register his new Blessing, it marked him with something no Blessen had ever received: [Sacred Fault: Godkiller] What to expect: - Weak to strong (it’s going to take a while for him to become the strongest, folks) - Slow-burn romance subplot (he’s painfully dense—don’t expect fast progress here) - Action every few chapters with slice-of-life and progression in between (downtime matters as much as combat) - Creative magic system with litRPG elements. - Multi-POV (mostly Anadis, with occasional side steps) - Gradual expanding worldbuilding (the world expands as Anadis moves through it) - Long chapters (3,000 words average) - 200k+ words written and ongoing (this story will be really long) Read 10 chapters ahead on Patreon!

Odium Incarnate

Synopsis FBI Agent. Closet Sociopath. Giant. All of these words describe SAC Imai. A man - no, a thing, unleashed onto the word to exact his hate filled vengeance on the proxies of his suffering. Ready to use any means - legal or otherwise - to bring the criminal element to 'justice'. And not the hollow victory of imprisonment. He would bring the only true measure of punishment to greatest amount of people possible. Death - painful if possible. Not just in its physicality but in the sheer destructiveness wrought onto society expertly hidden from prying eyes. Combat. Manipulation. Murder. All key disciplines of warfare. A war fought by a one-man army in the shadows of US law enforcement. /// Introduction - Justice is truly blind, O.I. Hate. It is powerful - it endures the longest amid the dying stars of human emotion. Hate. Utter contempt for one's own race. How far would someone go. How terrible their resolve. How deep the machinations. To extract their revenge - satiate that cool fire - against the object of that burning hate. What heights would such a being reach - when they abhor the sky that hangs overhead and the earth beneath their feet. Their weakness shackles them. Their humanity binds them. Not a wildfire, no, it would be slow. Painful. Equal. An instrument of justice become odium incarnate. A grudge so deep it would consume the soul. A predator unleashed upon ‘polite’ society. How far would such a being go? To make them feel true fear.
