Gifted

Most people don't remember being born. Sebastian remembers dying first. Reborn with his memories somewhat intact and a stolen demon's power tangled into his soul, he's given something rarer than any starting class: time. Time to test his limits before he can walk. Time to reverse-engineer a hidden system no one will explain to him. Time to learn exactly how much of himself he can afford to reveal, and to who. Growing up at a mountain outpost on the edge of nowhere, raised by a disgraced mage and the mother who saved him from a cult's altar, Bastian has every reason to keep his Status a secret. But the numbers don't lie, and neither does the thing he absorbed in the womb. Somewhere in the dark, it's still hungry. And it isn't the only thing watching him grow. Gifted: First Steps — some paths begin before you can walk.

Halloween Story: The Lake Surprise part one

It was supposed to be harmless. A joke. A prank. Something they could all laugh about later. Six friends walked toward the old lake at the edge of town, carrying snacks, secrets… and a plan that should have never existed. Billy trusted them. He trusted her most of all. But the moment the water touched him, everything went wrong. The laughter didn’t last. The screams did. Something beneath the surface answered him—fast, sharp, and hungry. Not one bite. Not one mistake. A swarm. By the time they pulled him out, the lake had already taken its share. And what remained… wasn’t something you could forget. Now the group is left with silence. With guilt. With a truth none of them are willing to speak out loud. Because the real horror isn’t just what was in the water. It’s knowing— Someone planned this. And no one stopped it. Some secrets sink. Others stay with you… long after the blood washes away.

Halloween Story: The Lake Surprise — Part Two: A Legend Rises

Ten years have passed… but the lake never forgot. What happened that day was buried—silenced by fear, guilt, and lies no one dared to speak out loud. The survivors moved on… or at least, they tried to. But every Halloween, the past returns. Names begin to appear. People begin to die. And the truth… begins to surface. Something is calling from the lake. Not just a memory. Not just a legend. Something alive. Something patient. The whispers grow louder each year—echoing through churches, streets, and dreams. A name repeated over and over like a curse that refuses to fade: Billy. The deeper they look, the clearer it becomes—this isn’t random. This isn’t coincidence. This is something that was never meant to survive. And now… It’s rising. The lake doesn’t just take. It remembers. It marks. It comes back for what it’s owed. And this time— It’s stronger.

Healer's Touch (Deadly Touch book 1)

Llew’s father disappeared when she was eleven, leaving her orphaned, as far as she knew. Since then, Llew has learned to survive the streets of the gold-mining town of Cheer – full of opportunistic men and desperation. It’s a hard existence made tougher when Llew's so-called friend accuses her of murder, sending her to the gallows. Llew’s Aenuk ability to absorb life means she doesn’t stay dead for long, but she does leave a trail of death behind her. Escaping the hangman’s noose sees Llew fall into the hands of Jonas: the man with the knife and the Karan power to kill Llew’s kind. If Llew can nurture the attraction he develops for her, maybe she can keep that knife from her heart. But lurking in the shadows is Jonas’s half-brother, Braph: the man who has learned to combine Aenuk and Karan powers into infinite and addictive magical potential. Healer's Touch is a fantasy novel flavoured with a wild west setting, steampunk-like technology, enough romance to draw you in, horror to keep you hooked, and just enough sex to keep things spicy. The Deadly Touch Series: Healer's Touch Warrior's Touch Magician's Touch *May count as Romantasy, but the spice is pretty middling. Goes into dark themes, including torture & rape, but never between the main couple. The first chapters are brutal, but I had to start Llew off somewhere …

Hit Kiss and Run!

[The adventure of a former secret military operative and a content creator with an insatiable thirst for sensation is only just beginning. Everyone, grab your snacks!] Janya stared at Orn as if the girl had just saved the world—with nothing but lip balm. “Seriously? You brought face powder to a freaking firefight?” she muttered, counting the last few bullets in her magazine. Orn smiled and patted her own cheek. “I’m not dying ugly!” Janya let out a deep sigh and glanced at the girl beside her, who was busy applying lipstick. “What kind of stupid logic is that?!” “Content creator logic.” Orn winked. “Trauma first, go viral later, P’Kirin.” Janya briefly stared up at the sky as bullets whizzed towards them. For a split second, she considered giving up on life altogether. “If we make it out alive,” she said quietly, “I’m leaving you in the middle of the jungle. For real this time!”

I Can Extract the Plot ( As a Trash Side-Character)

Caelen Vance was supposed to die in Chapter One. Not metaphorically. Not “almost died but awakened hidden powers” died. Actually executed. Publicly. By axe. Unfortunately for the plot, Caelen remembers the game he reincarnated into. And unfortunately for the world, he just unlocked the single most broken ability imaginable: Endless Concept Extraction Touch anything. Steal one of its concepts. Permanently. Sharpness from swords. Durability from shields. Intent to Kill from monsters. Later? Luck. Identity. Memories. Even Divine Authority itself. There’s only one catch: He can only extract once every 24 hours. Now trapped inside the brutal dark-fantasy RPG Apocalypse: Reforged as a talentless noble bastard with a dead mana core and a 30-day countdown to execution, Caelen has exactly one goal: Survive quietly. Get rich illegally. Avoid every main character. Retire before the apocalypse. Naturally, everything goes horribly wrong. The future Ice Tyrant overseeing his execution becomes suspicious of him. The regressed heroine meant to save the world thinks he’s a timeline-breaking demon. A terrifying demon assassin starts living inside his shadow after he accidentally frees her from slavery. And a merchant genius keeps trying to convert emotional intimacy into legally binding business contracts. Now Caelen must survive political conspiracies, eldritch horrors, noble assassins, and the increasingly violent cold war between four dangerously competent women all while pretending he is absolutely, definitely, completely normal. Which becomes difficult after he accidentally removes a monster’s “Intent to Kill” and gives it an existential crisis. After all… It’s hard to stay a background character when you’re secretly stealing the concepts holding the world together.
