Introduction
Ren Ashford was never meant to be chosen.
One moment, he was ordinary. The next, reality fractured, and a message rewrote his existence:
[YOU HAVE BEEN SELECTED.]
Dragged into a deadly System governed by an unseen, god-like force, Ren is forced to survive brutal trials where failure means erasure, not just death, but complete removal from existence. In this Game, Players hunt, betray, and evolve… all for the promise of power.
But Ren is different.
The System glitches around him.
The rules don’t fully apply to him.
And the deeper he goes, the more the Game begins to break.
As he fights through nightmarish worlds, shifting realities, and enemies that should not exist, Ren uncovers a truth far more terrifying than death:
The Game was never designed to be won.
It was designed to observe.
And something beyond the System, the Unwritten God, is watching closely… waiting for him to become something more than a pawn.
Because if Ren keeps surviving, keeps evolving, keeps breaking the rules,
He may become the only thing the Game cannot control.
Or the very thing it was created to find.
Chapter 1
CHAPTER 1: SELECTED
Ren Ashford was not special.
That was the problem.
At twenty-two, he had nothing that stood out. No talent worth mentioning. No connections. No money. Just a cramped room, a dying phone, and a life that moved in circles.
Wake up. Work. Eat. Sleep.
Repeat.
That night was no different.
The power had gone out again.
Ren sat by the window, watching the dark stretch across the city. Aba never really slept, but tonight felt quieter. Off. Like something had been removed from the world and no one noticed.
His phone buzzed.
A single notification.
No app name. No sender.
Just a black screen with white text.
[YOU HAVE BEEN SELECTED.]
Ren frowned.
“Selected for what?”
He tapped it.
The screen flickered.
Then,
Everything went silent.
Not quiet.
Silent.
The kind of silence that felt wrong. Like the world had been muted.
The fan stopped.
The distant generators cut off.
Even the sound of his own breathing… disappeared.
Ren stood up slowly.
“Okay… not funny.”
The room darkened.
Not because the light was gone, but because something else had taken its place.
The walls stretched.
The ceiling seemed farther away.
And then the second message appeared.
[WELCOME, PLAYER.]
A sharp pain hit his skull.
Ren dropped to one knee, gripping his head.
“What… is this,”
[INITIALIZING SYSTEM…]
Something cold slid down his spine.
Like something was touching his thoughts.
[NAME: REN ASHFORD]
[STATUS: ACTIVE]
[SANITY: 100%]
“Sanity…?”
Ren forced himself to stand.
“This is a dream.”
It had to be.
There was no other explanation.
Dreams felt real sometimes.
People said that.
This....this had to be one of those.
The third message appeared.
[FIRST TRIAL WILL BEGIN SHORTLY.]
The room vanished
One moment he stood in his room, the next, he was somewhere entirely foreign.
Cold air hit his face.
Ren staggered forward, barely catching himself, looking up he found out that the city was gone.
This place looks like a city, but something was different about this place, the buildings had blue colours shinning brightly.
Buildings leaned at impossible angles.
Streetlights flickered with a sick yellow glow.
The sky above was not a sky.
It moved much slower.
Like something alive was pressing against it from the other side.
Ren’s chest tightened.
“Where am i?” he asked no one in particular then he heard footsteps behind him.
Dozens of people stood scattered across the street.
Men. Women. Young. Old.
All feeling confused and afraid just like him.
A girl near him spoke first.
“Is this… some kind of prank?”
No one answered.
Another message appeared in the air.
This time, everyone saw it.
A massive black panel stretching across the sky.
[TRIAL 1: NIGHT OF THE HUNT]
[OBJECTIVE: SURVIVE UNTIL DAWN]
[PLAYERS: 47]
[WARNING: YOU ARE NOT ALONE]
A man laughed nervously.
“Survive? That’s it? Easy.”
Ren didn’t laugh.
Something felt wrong. Was this a test he asked himself
He looked around
Scanning and Listening to the environment.
That’s when he noticed it.
The silence.
Not total silence like before.
But something close
No one was moving, no birds were chirping ,no noise .
Then the final line appeared.
[THE HUNT BEGINS IN: 00:00:10]
Panic broke instantly.
“What hunt?!”
“Hey! What’s going on?!”
“This isn’t funny anymore!”
People started moving.
Running.
Shouting.
Ren didn’t move, he wanted to move, but his instinct held him back.
He stood quietly watching then suddenly
He started counting
Not the people but
The space between buildings.
The shadows.
The blind spots.
10…
9…
His breathing slowed.
If this was real,
Panic would get him killed.
6…
He stepped backward.
Positioning himself near a broken storefront.
One entrance.
One exit.
Less angles to worry about.
4…
The sky twitched, this time it was not the light or the cloud it was, something else,
Something was watching.
2…
Ren felt it.
That same cold presence from before.
Closer now it seemed
Interested.
1
Unexpectedly darkness covered the clouds
From the alleys
Something started to come out from the buildings, from places that were once empty, they looked hungry,
Then a woman scream caught his attention
Ren’s heart slammed against his ribs.
“Run.”
He didn’t wait to see more.
Behind him,
Something gave chase.
[SANITY: 98%]
Ren didn’t see the message.
But he felt it.
Something inside him had already started to crack.
And the night had just begun.

“I am done chasing you.”

Falling for my boyfriend's Navy brother
"What is wrong with me?
Why does being near him make my skin feel too tight, like I’m wearing a sweater two sizes too small?
It’s just newness, I tell myself firmly.
He’s my boyfirend’s brother.
This is Tyler’s family.
I’m not going to let one cold stare undo that.
**

I'm falling for my boyfriend's brother.
**
I hate girls like her.
Entitled.
Delicate.
And still—
Still.
The image of her standing in the doorway, clutching her cardigan tighter around her narrow shoulders, trying to smile through the awkwardness, won’t leave me.
Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.
I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.
It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.
It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.
I’m not here to rescue anyone.
Especially not her.
Especially not someone like her.
She’s not my problem.
And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.

Vengeance of the Forsaken Luna
"Bella." Ethan's tone shifted, taking on that warning edge I knew too well. "Faye is vulnerable right now. She's terrified you'll resent her, that this will divide the pack. The last thing she wants is for this baby to come between us."
"Then you shouldn't have done it." I met his eyes squarely, letting him see the ice in mine. "Go back to your son."
"For fuck's sake." He dragged a hand through his hair. "How many times—it was artificial insemination. They used my sperm, yes, but Faye and I never—"
Bella let out a cold snort. Such brazen lies. Her mate had an affair with his brother's partner, and his entire family helped force her out with nothing, all to make way for the mistress to take her rightful position. Poor fool—he thought she was just an unwanted adopted daughter, easy to dismiss and control. He never knew the computer genius he'd been searching for was his own Luna.
Since he'd tainted himself, Bella was done. She rejected him and reclaimed what was hers, rising to the top with help from Victor, who'd been secretly in love with her for years.

Bella smiled mockingly. "The child's father isn't you."
The CEO's Unspoken Love
Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.
"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.
My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.
My nightgown had ridden up, his hands discovering more of mine with each caress. We were both lost in sensation, rational thought receding with each passing second...
Three years ago, to fulfill the wish of his grandmother, I was forced to marry Derek Wells, the second son of the family that had adopted me for ten years. He didn't love me, but I had secretly loved him all along.
Now, the three-year contractual marriage is about to end, but I feel that some kind of sentiment has developed between Derek and me that neither of us is willing to admit. I'm not sure if my feelings are right, but I know that we can't resist each other physically...
