Ongoing Web Novels

Two hundred years ago, the werewolves of the Trevelloc clan closed off their island to the rest of the world. Now, they are the only ones who know what happened to Tressa’s brother.

Tressa is a cartographer, accustomed to measuring physical shores and charting visible tides. But when her brother vanishes on the banned coasts of Keresek, her instruments cannot help her. Desperate, she strikes a bargain with Kadek, the clan's formidable and insular alpha. He possesses the map she needs; she offers him one year of service in a clan that despises outsiders.

Their bargain binds them to the island's lethal terrain. Plunged into a brutal society where power is claimed by craft and physical survival, Tressa must navigate treacherous fishing politics, cliffside hazards, and a magnetic, terrifying pull toward the one man she swore to hate. Surrounded by enemies and the encroaching tide of clan warfare, she realizes too late: finding her brother means surviving the werewolves, and the price of the alpha's protection might be her freedom.

Every ten years, the shifting city of Cavenrock tears itself down and rebuilds around the champion of the Great Ascendancy. To the elite sects, it is a triumph of cultivation and progress. To those living in the outer rings, it means their homes and lives are bulldozed to feed the city's spiritual core. Dane Cutler is a blade-reader, practicing a discarded peasant craft that divines a cultivator’s health from the chips and stress lines in their weapons. Dismissed as a superstitious fraud, Dane barely scrapes by in the slums—until he examines a discarded sword that bears a unique, highly engineered stress pattern. It is the exact same sabotage mark that killed the previous champion ten years ago. Now, drawn into the violent politics of the upcoming tournament, Dane must use his dying craft to trace the conspiracy to the top of the city's hierarchy before the next rebuilding erases his world entirely.

Daane Vroomen refuses to fight unless there is an appreciative audience, and he certainly refuses to fight if it threatens to crease his tailored velvet coat. As the undisputed master of psychokinetic inertia polarization—capable of reversing, accelerating, and violently vectoring moving mass with a flick of his dueling rapier—Daane treats void skirmishes as mere performance art. But when the authoritarian Iron Synod abruptly locks down the planetary catapult-rings across all fifteen star systems of the Ring-Spire Conglomerate, choking off interstellar transit to impose a draconian military dictatorship, his extravagant lifestyle faces an intolerable disruption.

Crashing a sector warlord's orbital coronation ball, Daane hijacks the Synod’s prized experimental hyper-cruiser right off its ceremonial mooring. The theft is a masterstroke of theatrical flair until he discovers the vessel's temperamental psychic core refuses to steer unless fed increasingly outrageous acrobatic stunts and death-defying kinetic gambits. Pursued through relativistic mag-train lattices and orbital spire nets by relentless Synod strike-fleets, the velvet-clad saboteur must orchestrate an escalating war of impossible void-raids across fifteen girdled worlds, turning the enemy's own kinetic barrages into his personal stepping stones—and proving that true freedom is worth every ruined yard of silk.

No one leaves the jianghu easily, but at the timber tavern of Loch-na-Cailleach, an ancient custom offers an escape. A warrior wishing to put down their blade must travel to the water's edge and fight one last, bloodless farewell duel against a worthy foe before crossing the misty loch to peace. Lorcan-Rhu has fought for twenty bloody winters; he wants only to return to his neglected highland apple orchard. To grant his honorable release, the rival Storm-Petrel School sends Caoimhe, a prodigy spear-cultivator whose elder brother Lorcan once disarmed. Under the sharp, tea-scented gaze of Maolain, a legendary strike-master turned tavern keeper who values his ceramic teacups far more than martial reputations, they prepare for their solemn parting bout. But when an unyielding vendetta brigade arrives at the water's edge vowing that blood debts can never be washed clean, Lorcan-Rhu and his companions discover that walking away from violence demands their fiercest stand yet.

The delta of Sárvidék belongs to the river-gods, and Menyhért the Driftwood is their most insolent speaker. An outcast fisherman-priest who asks only for sweet water-chestnuts, fermented lotus wine, and sunlit silence, Menyhért keeps ancient blind river-beasts asleep with the low notes of his bone pipes. That solitude shatters the dawn Rozsa Iron-Tooth lands at his stilt-hut. Warlady of the eastern shell-mounds, cloaked in otter-fur and armed with serrated stingray daggers, Rozsa is driving her war-canoes upstream through cannibal-haunted bayous to butcher the inland clan that slaughtered her kin. She needs a pilot who can read the black-water channels—and she binds Menyhért to her bow under threat of a harpoon through the ribs. Yet Menyhért's tongue is as treacherous as river silt, and his reed-hymns do more than pacify the monsters lurking below the surface; they awaken a feral, suffocating hunger between captor and guide that threatens Rozsa's campaign of vengeance and Menyhért's hard-won freedom.

Kyogo is hired to protect a naive heir in a clan war fueled by a succession crisis. Given away as part of an arranged marriage designed to stall the violence between two militant factions, Kyogo soon discovers his new situation is anything but a truce. He is thrust into a dangerous apprenticeship under a mentor with a hidden agenda. His survival and the uneasy peace depend on his ability to outmaneuver assassins, navigate treacherous politics, and master the deadly arts his mysterious mentor demands he learn. Every lesson comes with a price, and loyalty is a liability when the person you guard is the bait in a trap. In a world where blades are always drawn and treaties are mere formalities, Kyogo must chart his own path or become a pawn in a game of blood and succession.

Evoia is a structural translator in the sunless city of Vrythos, gifted—and cursed—with the ability to hear the psychic residue trapped in stone and steel. The eternal long night of Vrythos has always been ruled by the Erethes, a nocturnal class that preys on the vulnerable. When Evoia deciphers a localized scream trapped within the founding pillars of the city, she uncovers evidence of a massive historical crime: Vrythos was built on a stolen bloodline. Her discovery forces an uneasy alliance with Kyranthos, a ruthless Erethes enforcer whose own family is implicated in the slaughter. As they unravel the buried truth of the city's origins, they must confront their growing, dangerous bond and fight to ensure the past does not return to devour the present.

In the lunar colony of Mahrud, survival is dictated by life-support decay and the absolute authority of the only doctor—who is also the colony's only judge. When a wrongful conviction sentences an innocent miner to the lethal vacuum walks, veteran duelist Vahram-dar must step out of retirement. Coaching a brilliant but volatile young fighter, Vahram-dar seeks to challenge the corrupt dual monopoly. Against him stands Navran-shah, the brilliant physician-magistrate who truly believes his ruthless triage keeps the colony breathing. Their mirrored actions—one fighting from the dust, the other calculating from the clinic—will determine whether the colony breaks its chains or suffocates entirely.

Across the fractured bronze-age moonlets of the Ringed Realm, cultivators do not fly on swords or command ethereal beasts—they surf the roaring ether on giant bronze-threaded war banners, catching the kinetic friction of passing comets. When the legendary Golden Comet hurtles through the void carrying the primordial steles of the Nine Heavenly Katas frozen in its crystalline heart, an ancient martial decree is reawakened: whichever warrior keeps their colors staked to the stele's apex through the gauntlet of three moon-realms shall inherit the celestial legacy. Three irreconcilable banner-masters plunge into the comet's glittering wake: Mengubek, the vainglorious spear-skimmer of the Sky-Javelin League; Torgantay, the unbending halberd champion of the Nine-Cauldron Citadel; and Chormaqanoglu, an irreverent flag-fencer whose gossamer banner can snare any weapon. But as rival void-corsairs and an expansionist warlord move to shatter the stele and smelt its primordial bronze into realm-conquering siege engines, the three rivals must balance fierce mutual combat with desperate survival across the burning copper trails.

Across the flooded expanses of the Mar-Pannonian Shelf, civilization survives only behind colossal, automated thousand-foot storm-gates holding back the relentless tides. When an autonomous deep-sea drone-submarine armed with tectonic torpedoes slips its leash and targets the continental defense network, rogue hydro-glider captain Boróka Nyáry sets out to intercept its telemetry before the flood-barriers fall. Armed with rare acoustic-synaptic vocal cords that can shatter bulkheads with sub-audible resonance, Boróka is used to living on speed, illicit salvage, and stolen seconds. But standing directly in her wake is Storm-Warden Vencel Csortos, an unyielding naval officer whose telekinetic density barriers make him an immovable wall—and whose iron devotion to maritime protocol means he sounds starboard horn blasts even while ramming pirate hulls. With three coastal federations on the brink of total resource war and the seawall countdown rapidly running out, two mortal enemies must survive churning spillways, sonic crossfire, and an involuntary alliance to hunt down an invisible leviathan before the ocean swallows what little dry ground remains.

Against a landscape measured in blood and rising waters, the Three Sects race a deadly flood season—and a disgraced surveyor holds the only true map. When an outsider dares to measure what the locals prefer to leave hidden, they trigger a conflict between the comfort of old lies and the danger of true knowledge. To survive the rising tide and the wrath of entrenched factions, they must use the very land as a weapon, forging unlikely alliances and paying a brutal price for every secret dragged into the light.

Two miles beneath the arctic permafrost, the Cripta Polar de Barrena protects the biological heritage of an endangered planet, its endless vaults kept frozen by the occult glands of pre-human leviathans. When an electrical fault disables the laser cooling system, technician Dario Melgarejo discovers the temperature is climbing. Trapped inside with a suspicious state marshal and a greedy antiquities smuggler, Dario watches in horror as the thermal-null field collapses. In the sub-zero corridors, the ice begins to thaw. Millions of seeds sprout into thorny flesh-traps, and long-dead predators pull themselves free of their specimen drawers with multi-jointed hunger. To survive, the three must plunge deeper into the freezing dark to reset the primary gland before the entire prehistoric wing wakes up.

Stranded upon the baking mudflats of the Great Zuider oxbow during an unprecedented summer drought, the royal river-barge Goudsbloem sits helpless. Each scorching afternoon, the river recedes another inch, threatening to rot the seventy-cubit cedar hull and drive three hundred thirsty passengers and soldiers into murderous mutiny. The only escape lies in waking the dormant bronze keel-oars embedded deep within the vessel's spine—an ancient mechanism keyed to an intimate LitRPG System of glowing skin-borne glyphs, fueled not by sacrifice or blood, but by genuine emotional vulnerability and physical attunement. Baarn van Rhee, a taciturn sweep-rower with iron endurance and an unvoiced yearning, finds himself summoned by Swaantje Rozendaal, a high-born ceremonial priestess versed in cooling unguents and melodic scent-weaving. As their tentative evening touch ignites shared resonance notifications that chime through paper-thin rush mats for the entire sweltering vessel to overhear, guard captain Kars Vanhuis watches his own martial discipline crumble into suspicion and raw envy. To lift sixty tons of cedar and bronze through the suffocating silt, Baarn and Swaantje must strip away every layer of pride and social distance before the last pool of fresh water turns to poison.

Forty feet below the drowned boulevards of Nouar-el-Bahr, municipal saturation diver Tidjani earns his living clearing the delta city's subterranean flood-tunnels. But when a record hurricane slams the coast, Sump Turbine 4 seizes completely, threatening to back up billions of gallons of toxic sludge into the densely packed slums above. Diving blind into zero-visibility runoff, Tidjani discovers the intake isn't choked with timber and debris—it's blocked by a writhing, multi-jawed occult biomass anchoring itself to the sluice gates. Armed with a pneumatic cutter and a rapidly draining air rig, Tidjani must sever the creature from the turbine shaft while dodging the armed saboteurs who seeded the monster into the sewer system.

Wren Strand has spent twenty-six years being the best rigger on any logging crew in Harker's Notch — steady hands, sharp eyes, and no patience for anyone who cuts corners on a mountain that doesn't forgive mistakes. She's never questioned why the old-growth stand at the edge of town has stood untouched for generations, or why her mother flinches whenever Wren asks about the boundary trail.

Then one tree changes everything: a scent she can't place, a stranger's eyes across the tree line, and a fever under her skin that has nothing to do with exhaustion.

She's a werewolf. She's always been one. And the man she can't stop dreaming about is the alpha of the pack on the other side of a boundary older than the town itself — a line kept by trees that remember blood, and that has stopped three packs from tearing each other apart for generations.

The bond between them is real, immediate, and impossible to unmake. Accepting it means defying a peace neither pack can afford to lose. Refusing it means a lifetime of wanting a man she can't have, thirty feet across a line she now has to help defend with her life.

Wren has never backed down from a dangerous job. She's not about to start with this one — even if the mountain, the mill, and every wolf on it are about to find out exactly how far she'll climb to keep what's hers.

Across seven shattered volcanic worlds suspended in an orbital void, war is fought straight downward through the Gate-Wells: colossal basalt shafts where massive bronze bells ring open pathways between the stars. Keldrund is the vanguard's chief founder, an ear-trained artisan whose knuckles can detect a hairline fracture in molten alloy before the pour even cools. His task is to cast the harmonic bronze instruments that keep the pathways open for Warlord Ravnsk's bronze-clad chariots and spearmen. But when Ravnsk launches a ruthless campaign to ring open all seven wells simultaneously, Keldrund hears what the bloodthirsty warlords ignore. The wells are not divine portals left by benevolent gods; they are exhaust valves and automated terraforming regulators for an ancient orbital machine. Striking all seven bells at once will not forge an empire across the void—it will activate a planetary purge that incinerates every fragment in ash. To protect his apprentice and prevent the extinction of seven worlds, Keldrund must wage a silent, paranoid war of sabotage from inside the vanguard's forge, turning his craft into a weapon while surrounded by fanatical killers.

A poisoned aquifer is about to tip two rival werewolf packs into open war over a sprawling desert border town. Ocotlan is the enforcer for the highway pack, sent to hunt down the saboteur before her Alpha orders a massacre. Tlalli is the sister of the ranchland Alpha, dispatched to stop the highway enforcer from crossing the border.

When they clash in the dry brush, the fated mate bond snaps into place between them.

Now they are bound to the enemy. If Tlalli’s brother finds out, he will gut Ocotlan and burn her pack’s truck stops to the ground. If Ocotlan’s Alpha finds out, she will be executed for treason. They have to solve the poisoning, keep their warring families from slaughtering each other, and figure out how to survive the lethal pull of a bond neither of them asked for.

In a vertical abyss of four nested hollow worlds connected by a titanic central drop-shaft, soaring wind currents and planetary barometric pressures dictate the laws of sail, ballistics, and survival. Fleets plunge across vacuum voids under full canvas, propelled by baric pyrodynamics—heavy iron mortars firing concussive charges of black powder spiked with deep-sea squid marrow to anchor ships to descending gravity lines. But from the black floor of the lowest hollow sphere, a cold phosphorescent miasma is ascending through the shafts. Wherever the phosphor fog touches gunpowder, munitions transform into swarming, chittering vermin that devour rigging and fuse gunners to their iron. As the civilized upper spheres shatter into paranoid purges and desperate naval raids over uncorrupted powder magazines, four souls caught across the war machines—bombardier captain Tomoki, trench dredger Natsue, citadel inquisitor Kazuma, and penal surgeon Ryosei—must navigate escalating mutinies and anatomical nightmares, blind to the terrifying truth that the rising phosphor is not an accident of nature, but the planetary immune system waking up to eradicate them all.

Between three primordial spheres bound across the freezing stratosphere by petrified ironwood root-towers, an impending orbital alignment threatens to snap the celestial bridges for four centuries. Below in the permafrost gloom of the lower sphere, entire peoples face extinction unless they can seize living ember-moss from the sunlit upper canopy. Armed with an ochre alchemy that tethers the momentum of thrown pebbles to crushing fifty-pound stones, Kayadu dangles over the infinite cloud abyss to infiltrate the canopy groves. Above, veteran tracker Nkeoma hunts the lower-world raiders along sheer bark precipices—even as she unravels evidence that her own chieftain plans to sacrifice the garrison and flee to the highest realm. On bark cliffs where a cut rope means a ten-thousand-mile fall into white silence, survival is a brutal equation of kinetic force, fading heat, and mutual betrayal.

In the troposphere above the poisoned tectonic badlands of Aithria, continental root-islands of iron-bark and rogue spore-jungles threaten to choke out the sun and drag entire floating cities into the abyss. Alkaios, an exhausted aerostat tugboat skipper whose proudest achievement is avoiding manual labor, wants nothing more than a quiet drink and an unbothered berth. That dream evaporates when his rusted sky-tug accidentally syncs with an ancient planetary geo-gardening System, designating his crew as the realm's sole Master Canopy Arborists.

Now armed with industrial plasma-clippers, atmospheric buzz-saws, and an infuriating interface that hands out municipal merit badges while warning of bio-electric overgrowth, Alkaios finds himself targeted by iron-fisted zeppelin barons who use the strangler-vines as sky-fortress anchors. Flanked by Berenikia, a disgraced cloud-harvester noblewoman forced onto the gun-deck, and Philotheos, an eccentric cartographer obsessed with sentient sky-moss, Alkaios must trim the runaway stratosphere before rival dreadnoughts shoot his floating weed-whacker out of the clouds.
