Harry stared out the Dursely car window morosely. "I would have went with Sirius if he had asked." He thought. 'T would have run from the law and Durselys with him.' He paused, blinking. 'I could do that on my own! I could run away' Summer after 3rd year

--Spin off-Prequel of my novel "The tale of a vampire slayer" that follows the legend of Azrael, the strongest Slayer-- [Trigger Warning! May contain Very violent scenes.] "A man with no past. A shadow with no master. A legend whispered in fear." The night does not belong to men. The world has long since fallen under the dominion of those who feast on blood, their cursed rule upheld by dark sorcery and immortal bloodlines. The gods have turned away, the light has faded, and the few who still resist do so in vain. But in the darkest abyss of history, there exists a name. A name that should not exist. A name that does not belong to kings, nor heroes, nor prophets. Azrael Noctis. No divine blessing. No enchanted blood. No ancient power. Only flesh, steel, and an unshakable will. He is the man born without magic in a world of sorcery. A lone figure who walks the path no one else dares to tread. An executioner with no master, an instrument of destruction bound by a single, unbreakable rule— "I do not kill men. I do not kill demons. I'm only born to kill vampires." No one knows where he came from. No one knows how he defies the limits of human flesh. He does not tire. He does not falter. He does not kneel. Some say he is a curse upon the cursed, a punishment forged by the heavens to purge the world of the damned. Others whisper that he is no man at all, but something far worse. But one truth remains: wherever the night stretches its claws, the Slayer will return from his ashes and destroy the evil. A dark fantasy epic of relentless battle and supernatural terror. One man vs. an entire world of monsters. The legend that should never have existed.

Born into poverty, Kaelos adapted, doing whatever it took just to survive and escape his hellhole. No money? He'll work for it. Difficult? He'd work even harder. All he ever wanted was to make a living and help his family. Just as everything seemed well, fate played its cruelest trick. On a fateful day, Kaelos and his friends headed to their college campus when space abruptly shattered. In an instant, they were transported to an unknown world. A dark and decaying world in constant apocalypse, beyond dangerous and eldritch, where incomprehensible monsters lurked everywhere. There, death and slaughter were common. Madness was inevitable. To survive, the fortunate built sanctuaries, while the desperate erected abysses to contain these creatures. But to truly survive and live longer? To grow stronger? One must consume the remains of those creatures, obtaining their mystical powers at the cost of gradually becoming inhuman. Kaelos and his friends sought any means to survive and return to Earth. However, they would come to understand. Power comes at a heavy price. Notes: - The world will be dark and quite depressing yet paradoxically balanced with hope and dreams. - There will be occasional slices of moments. This is part of the world itself and is necessary for the living beings' sanity. If you're looking for action and suffering, then this is not for you. - MC and the others will eventually transform into monsters but will mostly keep their humanoid forms for a reason I couldn't spoil yet.

They call him “No One’s Son.” A boy born of blood, raised by war, and shaped by the screams of dying men. Rex has survived battlefields since the age of twelve — not because he’s brave, but because he has nothing else. Now fifteen, armed with a dull sword and a soul too tired to break, Rex stumbles through another night of ash and death... And finds her. A silent girl with dirt-streaked cheeks and eyes that don’t beg — just endure. She doesn’t say much. But Rex recognizes that look. Because once, he wore it too. In a continent torn apart by two monstrous empires, survival is a currency bought with blood. And in a world that never offered them love, the smallest acts of care become rebellion. This is not a story of heroes. This is a story of scars. Of two children the world tried to forget — and their quiet refusal to disappear.

But when a grim reaper arrives too early, a single mistake erases Zane’s name from death’s ledger—making him a missing soul, trapped between life and the afterlife. Brought back to the world of the living with no memory, Zane soon finds himself caught in a strange pattern: each time he tries to end his life, the same reaper returns to stop him. Azriel, the reaper who broke the rules to save him, swore to erase Zane’s memories and keep their worlds apart. But the more Zane dies, the more he remembers—and the deeper Azriel falls. Now, hunted by celestial law and drawn together by a bond that defies destiny, they must confront the truth: some souls aren't lost... they’re just waiting to be loved, even in the realm of sinners.

The world is no longer as we knew it. Years ago, a destructive fog that serves to mutate every living thing both animal and plant took over the world.

And fee minutes after the announcement, the done is removed exposing them to the f agerous fog and the mutated animals that only have a predative instinct. Cypher doesn't remember most of his life but he knows one thing, he is going to make it to the next district. It's a race against time...

They are stronger, faster, and willing to kill to level up. To survive, Kael and Amira have to work together. Because in this world, death isn’t the end. It’s just the beginning.

I never asked to be the chosen anything. I had a nice enough life, if you enjoy communing with dead people, wrangling ghostly regrets, and being occasionally mistaken for a lost Victorian child. Harrowers don’t get holidays, and we certainly don’t get destiny. We get well-worn boots, crumbling field journals, and maybe—if we’re lucky—a thermos that doesn’t leak. I was fine with that. Then came the part where I accidentally got involved in a celestial conspiracy. You know, the usual: unraveling the fabric of fate, discovering I may or may not be some mythical thread-weaver, dodging bureaucratic Fae with sharp smiles and sharper agendas, and, most inconveniently of all, developing a highly inconvenient attraction to a certain exiled Huntsman of the Unseelie Court who looks he stepped out GQ: Gothic Edition and smells like rain. Alaric Fen. Yes, that Alaric. The one with the eyes like amber lightning and cheekbones you could cut yourself on. Now I’m trying to stop the Balance from folding like a wet towel, while two ancient Courts most humans are blissfully unaware about flirt with civil war, and everyone keeps looking at me like I’ve got the answers. I don't. I have tattoos I didn't sign up for, a fast-talking con artist for a best friend, and some stubborn hope that kindness still counts for something. So if you're looking for a grand epic of magic, love, betrayal, memory, and rebellion—well. Here we are.  Just… don’t expect me to smile about it. Come along if you'd like. I could use someone on my side. -Entry from the diary of Grey Wyrde
