There's nothing more important than love, Mila always told herself. Even when her boyfriend cheated on her and accused her of stealing, leading to her being fired, Mila still held onto her belief. For a 24-year-old young woman to survive in a big city where she knew nobody but her cheating boyfriend, Mila had to look for work elsewhere not just anywhere, but The Montclair Club. For one night, she served as a salesperson for the launch of a new wine. As the saying goes, (In vino veritas) Truth in wine. Mila's truth was letting her hair down and having fun just for one night. The innocent woman had her own taste of a 'one wild night.' The result? A positive pregnancy test. Mila became pregnant by the hot-tempered, international playboy and heir of the Montclair Conglomerate, from a family of old money. Zyran Ciro Montclair is known to have a special hatred for the words family and poor. He only believes that the poor are leeches and liars. At the moment, the luxury of pride wasn't something Mila could afford. Jobless, pregnant, and left alone in the big city, Mila decided to go after her baby's daddy. Even if he might reject her, she had to try. And somehow, in her pursuit, she ended up on the early morning news: 'Noblesse Oblige: Montclair Heir to Marry an Unknown Poor Country Girl. It's giving Rich Prince and The Pauper. A 21st-century Fairytale.' What could possibly go wrong? you may ask. Stepping into the rarefied and unhinged world of the Montclairs, Mila realized that their realm wasn't the same as her world of black and white. Her perception of life was turned upside down, and she couldn't help but wonder. What could be so poisonous yet so good as power and money? Will Mila's love endure when faced with Zyran's 12 rules for their marriage, including the humiliating demand of: Rule No 6: “Submission is key: When I say kneel, you'll drop to all fours. Don't question it, just obey.” Will she allow herself to be consumed by the corruption that comes with wealth, or will she spread her innocence and show Zyran a world where people don't have to be used? Can their love survive the poisonous influences of power and money? . . . . . . Instagram account: Pluma_W143 Facebook page: Plumadidi Tiktok: @Plumadidi Cover belongs to me. Art by Kelveendraws

Chastine Aphrodite Reign is the only member of the long-forgotten Wood Clan to enroll in a prestigious university known for its elemental users. While the major clans—Fire, Water, Air, Earth, and Dark—are admired and feared, the Wood Clan has faded into obscurity after hiding for over 50 years. Once a formidable power, their legacy has been overshadowed and forgotten. Determined to restore her clan’s former glory, Chastine faces derision and is labeled as a coward from a weaker clan. To reclaim their honor and erase their tarnished reputation, she must rise above and defeat the most powerful members of the major clans. Through sheer strength and determination, Chastine aims to prove the Wood Clan’s worth and return them to their rightful place among the strongest.

In a world reclaimed by a forgotten apocalypse, humanity survives within walled enclaves, besieged by monstrous, crystalline beasts known as Chimeras. The truth of the past—of the technologically advanced "Ancients" and their sudden downfall—is a lost and forbidden history. The key to survival lies in the Aethel Frame, a latent spiritual and biological blueprint within every human. When awakened, it allows a user to absorb the "Soul Echoes" of defeated Chimeras, integrating their powers and traits. True mastery, however, comes not from collecting Echoes, but from synthesizing them into new, unique abilities. Follow a young protagonist on his journey from a confused survivor to a legendary warrior. As he awakens his own Aethel Frame, he will uncover the dark secrets of the Ancients' legacy and learn that the Chimeras are not just monsters, but a key to humanity's future. It is a path of strategic evolution and brutal combat, where understanding the past is the only way to forge a new future and prevent history from repeating its mistakes. I am the original author.
