"Ring! Ring!""I'm coming!" Who is here at this hour?He pondered. He got out of bed at 9 PM and walked over to the doorbell camera. "What?" On the other side was a beautiful Japanese woman.She had beautiful white skin, with beautiful black eyes and beautiful black hair with red stripes on both sides of her head. She looked so serious, yet she had such a blissful and excited aura of hers. She stood almost as if all of her gears in a machine were running all at once trying not to go too fast and fly out.As he opened the door, she outstretched her hand through the small slit in between the door and the door frame.As the door opened fully, she held out her hand expecting a handshake and said,"こんにちは。" (Hello.)"What!?"He was so confused, and his brain was as empty as his stomach. Just as he attempted to outstretch his arm, he slightly tilted forwards before falling backwards and passing out in front of this random Japanese woman."はぁ？！" (Huh?!)She said before she rushed to his side and caught him before his head smashed against the wooden floor.________________________________________________________________________「リン！リン！」

"I'm coming!" (今行くよ！)こんな時間に誰だろう？彼は考えた。午後9時にベッドから起きて、玄関のドアベルカメラのところへ向かった。

"What?" (えっ？) 反対側には、美しい日本人女性が立っていた。

彼女は美しい白い肌をしており、美しい黒い瞳と、頭の両側に赤いラインが入った美しい黒髪を持っていた。とても真剣な表情をしていたが、どこか幸せでワクワクしたオーラを放っていた。まるで、すべての歯車が同時に動きながらも、暴走しないように必死で制御されているかのように立っていた。

彼がドアを開けると、彼女はドアと枠の隙間から手を差し出してきた。

ドアが完全に開くと、彼女は握手を求めるように手を差し出しながら言った。

「こんにちは。」

"What!?"(えっ！？)

彼はとても混乱し、頭の中は空っぽ、まるで空腹の胃のようだった。手を差し出そうとしたその瞬間、体が少し前に傾き、そのまま後ろへ倒れて気を失ってしまった。目の前の見知らぬ日本人女性の前で。

「はぁ？！」彼女は叫んで、すぐに彼の元へ駆け寄り、彼の頭が木の床に打ちつけられる前に抱きとめた。

Look, I was just a regular marketing whiz trying to make rent, until I humiliated myself in front of him.

Roman Valentus. Billionaire CEO, pure perfection, and unfortunately, my new boss.

Brooding? Check. Intimidating? Oh, absolutely. Likely to fire me on the spot? Let’s just say the odds weren’t in my favor.

But instead of getting my walking papers, I end up working closely with him on the biggest marketing campaign of my career. We clash. We argue. But somehow, between the late nights and lingering stares, he falls. We fall—fucking hard.

But love isn’t just stolen glances and ear biting. Our pasts are waiting to ruin everything. And with a man like Roman? Falling might be easy… but surviving it? That’s another story.

Just when I start thinking this might be more than just workplace crush, the past comes knocking—his, mine, and the kind that doesn’t take no for an answer. Because love is fun and all, but apparently, so is self-destruction.

So, the real question is: can I survive loving a man like Roman Valentus… and can he survive loving me back?

Journey into the spellbinding world of Tilsim Hoshruba, a realm divided into three enigmatic regions, each brimming with magic, danger, and untold stories. In Tilsim Zahir, mortals and sorcerers live side by side, while in Tilsim Batin, the elite sorcerers and nobles hold sway over ancient secrets. But beyond them lies Tilsim Zulumat, where only the Sorcerer Emperor Afrasiyab and his kin—a witch, a sorceress, and other ancient beings—can tread. Here, the deadly Chamber of the Seven Awful Ones waits, hidden from mortal eyes but capable of unleashing destruction upon the entire realm.

In a land where gods such as Sameri, Laat, Mannat, and Jamshed are worshipped, an ancient prophecy foretells the coming of a son of Adam who will conquer Tilsim Hoshruba and bring an end to the tyranny of the Sorcerer Emperor Afrasiyab. Witches, warlocks, sorcerers, and sorceresses of royal blood and noble lineage vie for power within this enchanted realm, which stretches across vast kingdoms and mysterious lands.

Amidst this, beyond the borders of Tilsim Hoshruba, the legendary warrior Amir Hamzeh arrives in the kingdom of Koe Ateeq to confront Laqa, a self-proclaimed god who has taken refuge there. In an act of desperation, Laqa's advisor Bakhtiyar summons Afrasiyab's aid, leading the Sorcerer Emperor to send his arcane warrior Ejlaal to Laqa's side. But fate twists unexpectedly, and Ejlaal finds himself siding with Amir Hamzeh instead.

Meanwhile, Prince Badiuzzaman, the son of Amir Hamzeh, is captured by Queen Shararah, a sorceress queen of Tilsim Hoshruba, during a hunting expedition. Enraged, Amir Hamzeh resolves to invade Tilsim Hoshruba but learns through an ancient tome of Hamas that only his daughter's son, Prince Assad, can conquer the realm. With the trickster Umro Ayyar—Amir Hamzeh's childhood friend and master of disguise—by his side, Prince Assad sets out on a perilous quest to rescue Badiuzzaman and overthrow Afrasiyab.

As Umro Ayyar navigates the treacherous paths of Tilsim Hoshruba with his wit, trickery, and magical bag, Prince Assad faces danger head-on with the legendary Sword of Solomon. Yet, amidst these trials, fate brings him face-to-face with a mysterious figure whose deep blue eyes ignite a forbidden love—one that is as dangerous as it is irresistible.

In this first volume of an epic fantasy series, readers will be drawn into a world where ancient deities like Sameri, Laat, Mannat, and Jamshed are revered as gods, where magic is the fabric of reality, and where love, loyalty, and courage are tested against the forces of darkness. *The Legend of Tilsim Hoshruba* invites you to step into an enchanted realm where destinies are forged in the crucible of magic and adventure. Prepare to be captivated by a tale that will leave you yearning for more.

I was no king, but to call me 𝗠𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘀 was no mistake. Still, I fancied myself an artist, a creator, bending the truth to be called 𝗣𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗼.

But all I really am is nothing more than a coward. I am neither a king nor an artist. So I shall run. Run from the truth, run from My Rose, and myself.

Because I 𝗗𝗶𝗱 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 to myself!!!

To them...

It's about these two guys being best friends but later starts falling for each other and become lovers.

gay, BI, friends, lovers, besties,

A book of well-crafted poems written by a group of well-crafted authors

He is the reaper of souls... He is my moving shadow. He is the darkness swelling inside me. He is my black soul. But he will save me.  Sebastian Michaelis was known for his schemes-he was known as the devil hidden in the night-but he will not show unless he deems you worthy. A worthy soul. Even years later, I recalled the night of my parents murder, their blood staining my hands, and how I was hauled away from them by men in a van, and I was tortured for days. It wasn't until he heard my cry of despair that Sebastian came, and he promised me vengeance on those vile demons, on those who murdered my parents. He told me that all he wanted in return... Was my soul. So I signed a contract with him.  I recalled this happening before, because of my English ancestors who were stowed away in the UK; they always warned me from making a deal with the devil.  My parents told me a story of my great grandfather from hundreds of years ago; he who signed a contract with a vile demon in order to get revenge on his parents death. My great ancestor... Ciel Phantomhive. I never thought I'd fall in his shoes, but here I was staring into Sebastian's blood-red eyes. History really repeated itself, didn't it?  I made a deal with the devil, And I don't regret it one bit.

She is my obsession.

This isn't a normal love story, Sweetheart. The girl's no spitfire, the man's no saint.

We are both villains.

She is my obsession; I am hers.

I know my princess hates that prince, I know she will flee that castle.

I know she will follow me, and once she enters these woods...

She's mine.

*****

This isn't a normal fantasy romance. This is a story of a princess who happens to be a murderer, but all her murders are blamed on one man.

THE MAN IN THE MASK.

Any normal person would fear him, but not Alice. Alice happens to be intrigued by him... and she knows he's not so innocent either.

For he is also a murderer.

An obsession is what she has, but she knows her obsession isn't one-sided. For he had been watching her for some time now.

And little did she know, that he had claimed her as his own.

*****this is my own original work, please do not plagiarize****
