"They called him a hero, a savior, but he is neither!" 

I am Lucas Lafayette Marie-Joseph Moses David Berger LaVoie. I used to be a soldier. But now, I am dragged into this situation.

They call themselves Fiercœurois, from Fiercœur, they asked for a savior, they found a guy who simply thinks about thoughts.

I looked at them. They said they needed my help. This country, in an upcoming civil war, tearing itself apart.

But one of them has to keep their power. Peace can't last long, everyone was scheming!

That is when I found out that they knew how to keep power. They told me: "People are sinners."

They are correct! They would do evil just to get ahead in life! You are lucky to find a good man!

Why did I fight for them? To gain power. Having virtue without power to use it is like punching the air, meaningless. I can have the purest soul, but if I can't do a single good thing, that means I'm evil! Better to hide an iron fist under a velvet glove than offer a woman flowers but be unable to love her!

I have done many things that will make heroes and villains kneel down to me or my compatriots. I shouted compassion, hatred, loyalty and treason.

And I will tell you myself. I am Proud of it! I am not American for now

Revolution... Sometimes it's either a shadow or a scream

This is not an apology. This is not redemption. It is a journey. After all, a life can be a journey itself.

This is my life. I am proud of it. I don't care if you hate me for the things I did.

Where does Fiercœur come from? Fier - proud, Cœur - heart.

Observe carefully, receiver of my message. There is something too little understand: sometimes, kindness is cruelty, and cruelty is kindness. This is more bitter than hemlock.

« La fortune ne favorise pas toujours les audacieux, mais le destin s'incline devant les puissants ! »

- Le Berger de Fiercœur

"Fortune does not always favor the bold, but destiny bows down to the powerful!"

- The Shepherd of Fiercœur

She was never one to be swayed... Trained to have a hard exterior from when she was just a fledgling, she had a hard time confronting these conflicting sentiments that'd raided her. She was never one to be religious... But after the incident, she prayed to whatever god there was. She was never one to believe in love... But the outcome of that history brought along a foreign feeling, one that she always pleaded to be freed from. She was one to be strong, to completely dispose of problems that may arise to be an issue. She believed in her power and knew that only she took whatever means to get to where she was. She was one to fight like never before, not caring if they had families. But... Now she'd gone soft, and she knew it. So it was either she disposed of the root of her problems, or be disposed. ~×~ Betrayed by her friend and ditched on by her supposed lover, she is being imprisoned for what she thought was right after her last hope of family abandons her. Now banished from the Kingdom to an unknown land, the young female must find a way to survive and have her revenge. But alas, the damned gods were never on her side this time to begin with. It's a tug of war, and time's running out. Who will win? Will it be the tigress? Or shall the Vikings conquer? Find out in... THE VIKING AND THE TIGRESS.

From their childhood days in Japan to their unbreakable bond in adulthood, theirs was a love story written in the stars. But on the day of their wedding, fate tore them apart. Kentaro was gone, leaving Sade shattered and lost. In her darkest moment, Sade made a desperate wish: to go back and save him. When she wakes up the next morning, she finds herself at fifteen years old, reliving her high school days with Kentaro all over again. With every laugh, every stolen glance, and every familiar moment, Sade is determined to rewrite their future. But changing the past isn't as simple as it seems. As Sade navigates the joys and heartbreaks of their teenage years, she's faced with a question she never expected: Can love truly conquer time, or is fate unchangeable? In a journey of love, loss, and second chances, Always You is a heartwrenching tale of devotion and the lengths one will go to hold on to the person they love most.

Omega and the beast by AmenRocks1
57 parts Complete Mature
You know when people say how it's like love at first sight when seeing their love for the first time? You look him in the eyes and know he's the man of your dreams. Bullshit! There's nothing that would ever change my mind about the so-called love of my life! Sure, the first time I saw him he was annoyingly handsome with his proud demeanour & defined cheekbones. That penetrating look of his made my knees weak. With shiny black shoes and a Dracula coat with a hairstyle as shiny as his Santorini black jaguar. But the first thing I thought when I saw Reed Ramon Hook the third was, what a twat! A proud rich dipshit who thinks he can own everything. No one could ever say no to this noble twat! You may wonder why I roast the love of my life. But is there anyone who has the permission to do so it must be his own omega, right? Yes, I forgot to mention how this perfect dipshit to a hunkalicious twat is the alpha of the Hookhill pack. To be honest, I had no idea what that meant. Nor did I know how a man can bend down and suddenly stand on four paws, growing a tail! It came as news to me! But the biggest shock was how it turned out that I also can warp into a beast with a furry tail above my ass! From being an unsuccessful yet optimistic guy without an income but with a sense of sarcasm, to then kind of belong to town's richest man, becoming the subject of an Alpha battle. I understand if you're confused. So was I! But let me rewind the tape and take everything from the beginning. Lean back and embrace your sassiness! Because sassiness rules and is needed when dealing with a twat! Heads up! This book contains mature themes like smut, mpreg, violence & bad language. It addresses important topics like rights & gender. I want to highlight these themes but don't intend to devalue anyone stereotypically. It's a fictional story intended to entertain but with important topics. Trigger warning for abusive-like violence and oppression, mainly towards the end.

Please be warned:This Tragedy is not for people who prefers escapisam. There are no happy endings here. This is a Tragedy. This is for those that are broken.This is for those that are shatterd. You have been warned. So, proceed at your own peril. Now..for those that stayed...welcome my dear brothers and sisters to the greatest tragedy of your life. They came for me, when i had let my guard down. Even though i had expected the empire of the monsters and its acursed emperor, to come at me with everything they had. They came for me when i had least expected them too, in a way i had least predicted them too, using the methods and tactics that made them, and made him for who he is. See...Peace can do that too a man. Hope can do that too a man. light can do that too a man. It can make you lower your guard down. Even though i had honed my fists and mind, i would and should not have lowered my guard down. Because i had done so, the people i cherished the most-the men and women of the cold valley, suffered for my negligence and my incompetency. and worst of all my little brothers and sisters paid them,with their future and their innocence. By doing this they caused a bloody war. By taking from me they instigated a bloodshed. and either of them they should not have done. For They should have learnt from their mistake long ago, it was not mercy that made me give their, and his life back to him- it was anger. pure and fresh in very format and flavor. And the thing about any war, and the thing about any battle, is that the demons are always the one's to dominate. Because they are the incarnation of carnage and death. My name is of no importance. But the moniker, and the epithet called the demon of the clod valley that i use, is of the greatest of significance. And this is my tale. This is my tragedy. But most of all this is my conquest, and pursuit of justice.

Started~ Nov 12 2021 Finished~ Dystopia: an imagined state or society in which there is great suffering or injustice, typically one that is totalitarian or post-apocalyptic. "Do you love me, Cadet?" Why? That seemed to be a question you've been asking yourself a lot lately. Growing up in the underground was tough. You needed to fight for survival, food, money, and even-your freedom. Danny, you're despicable "father", had you stealing from him any chance he got. He was slick and manipulative. Having to steal valuables for him all while taking care of two kids, Kai and Mary, was really hard. The responsibility you held was weighing down on you, making you think more about them and less about you. You didn't mind though. Anything to stay away from the sinful place you call home. After a while of putting up with Danny though, you had you're last straw ripped away when he hurt you're beloved Mary. You ran away to start a new life, taking Mary with you. You become known as "Shade", a mysterious cloaked criminal known for your stealth and strength. You took pride in your reputation, and the best part was, nobody knew anything about you. From your face down to you're gender, it was all concealed. It was all cloaked. But all this changed once they found you. They took you in, capturing you to mold you into a soldier fighting for the survey corps. You despised the survey corps at first. After all, they stole you from your home. Took you away from the people you loved. They ruined your life, right? But... did they? You're stubbornness and skill capture the attention of a certain short black haired male. Corporal Levi was humanities strongest though, he couldn't like you, could he? He couldn't... At first it seemed strange but pleasant to finally get noticed, but soon you realized, nothing good came from the Corporal. In fact, your life seemed to turn into a living Dystopia.

DISCLAIMER: This is a story I wrote in 2008 and it's the very first story that I wrote and finished when I started writing so I still have the whole story saved for the memories. But I recently discovered Wattpad thanks to a few lovelies (you all know who you are... *ahem* thanksgiving *ahem* ;) ) and I've decided to get back into writing. This story has a lot of meaning to me so I do intend to publish the whole story. I have published this story on the internet already on two different sites so if you do see it, just note that no, I didn't steal this story off someone else, I promise! :) If you are interested in seeing the unedited versions from 6 years ago, I'd be more than happy to send you the link via PM. In all honesty though, I have made a few embellishments. Nothing major, just the vocabulary really but the plot and characters are all completely the same. However, if you haven't read the unedited versions in the first place thenjust enjoy :P How often I update this story will be up to you guys and your feedback. If I get a positive response, then the next chapter will be up much sooner. All feedback is appreciate, even the baddies! :) Enjoy! Love you all E. Reignheart ~<3~

Started:04/01/2021 ongoing -Dabi's POV- She's the kind of girl that will turn your knuckles white with rage because she doesn't know when to stop. She would kill herself if it meant the ones she loves won't leave hurt. She tastes like what I imagine the apple that Eve ate in the garden tastes like. Divine and forbidden. I despise her and everything she stands for. I want to burn everything around her just to watch her walk towards me through the ash crying. She's never seen genuine hatred. She doesn't know true betrayal. But even still, she's beautiful as a church demolition. The place once filled with enlightenment and comfort being crushed and destroyed-beautiful stained glass murals strewed on the ground now reflecting the moon. A work of sacred art now defiled and tainted with the blackness of the gravel. She's been subject to the abandonment and negligence, and now no one can hear her sing. Her screams are starting to sound like archangels. Truth baring, sorrowful and destructive. I love it when she cries; I feel the drums of war in the far horizon, and the names of long-dead obscure gods are murmured. I want nothing more than to demolish her and put her up on display. I want to see her truly broken; I want to show her what actual violence feels like. I want to set her entire world on fire. She might even howl and dance in the flames you never know with her. I won't let anyone else have the privilege of ending her. But I think I might also consume worlds for her, if she asked Tags: Endgame Tomura, happy ending, time-traveling, created an origin story for the gods, and demons, OC eventually evil and gets revenge on heroes, OC has a cat that is actually a god, villain ending, Dabi steals OC from Shoto, fluff/angst, dadzawa, Endeavor apologist, heavy smut, possessive, Yandere, drug use, extreme violence, master/pet relationships, reverse harem, villains are mean, heroes are worse, jealously, serious deep plot, poetic thoughts, emotional/mental abuse.
Good At Being Bad (Book #1) by Sugar_And_Spice125

❝All men must choose between Two Paths. Good is the path of Honor, Heroism, and Nobility. Evil... well, it's just cooler.❞ ~ Megamind If it's one thing Disney USED TO like to do, it ALWAYS had the heroes win. Here's how it goes down. You have a pretty girl who, who always has an enemy, girl gets caught in the enemy trap, strong person defeats the monster and saves the girl. Happily ever after. The end. Roll credits. But here's the thing, you never see what happened to the villains, you never hear their side of the story, their backstory that caused them to do what they did. Maybe they were banished from the land, that's why they put Sleeping Beauty under a curse that made them sleep for a hundred years. Or maybe their family pressured them into think beauty is everything and they must be the most beautiful in the land to finally get the approval that they did something good, maybe that's why they poisoned Snow White to take her beauty. What if they just wanted to get revenge for Peter Pan taking their most valuable treasure, that meant more to them in the entire world, maybe that's why they had a growing vendetta over Peter Pan. There are many other reasons why villains did what they did, but, did these heroes ever consider that these villains had a family. Like how maybe Gaston might have had a kid who had to grow up with only one parent cause the Beast killed Gaston. Or maybe how Dr. Facilier might have had a daughter, but since he was locked in the shadow realm he never got to have that valuable father-daughter relationship with her. What if Disney is hiding something from us. The story of these kids who had to grow up without a parent or with the burden of being teased because of their lineage. Well, Disney, you may be good at making giant Marvel timelines and making us cry at the end of EVERY Disney Pixar movie. But I'm good at revealing your secrets. Why be good when you can be bad instead? editor: @mya_colondres

A/N: Had a bout of inspiration; may edit and then republish some time later after finishing writing another story, since I'm more focused on my other book -- [BL] Videre -- at the moment. Nonetheless, cheers to good reading and writing~ I'll brew this story first. I wanted some sweet and fluff in contrast to my other work. Book cover is atrocious btw, I know, lolol. I'll change that when I'm more focused on it. Just ignore like I do. Hehe~ _+_+_ Yu Yan is a curious little thing. Bridal classes? Easy. Archery? Swordsmanship? Martial arts? Horseback riding? Are kidding him? His father is a General! Unfortunately, Yu Yan had to marry the Emperor when his father, the mighty General, had died. With the pernicious palace life suffocating him, he had unexpectedly died before he could successfully run away. Hm? But what's this? It isn't the end? He's not dead yet? God: Hello, transmigrator~ Congratulations for successfully passing the screening of becoming a Heaven's part-timer! You have been chosen among a million of your peers and will be given a chance to reincarnate a different world of your choosing. We guarantee lots of benefits~ Of course, you can also decline and reincarnate back at your old world. Now then, what will you decide? Yu Yan: Can I be a doctor at that new world? God: Of course, of course! Whatever you want, you can be as long as you can protect, monitor, and stimulate the son and daughter of that world~ Yu Yan: Can I retain my memories? God: Anything you want! We can even retain your own body and just insert you into the world's trajectory. Now, please choose which book or world trajectory you want to work on~ Yu Yan after he transmigrated into the book: ....This isn't what I signed up for. Prince Gazef: I'll let you be my private doctor. I'll provide anything and everything you need and want. I'll be your sugar daddy if you want. Yu Yan: ...Alright, I'll stay after all.
