GM_Turtle
Zander awakened to a cold, concrete room, kidnapped by a mysterious force and put into... whatever this is. Approached with floating screens, and a new body, the world formed itself around him, leaving only a path forward. After fighting through an unforgivable scenario, he awakens years later in the 2nd layer, a dense, non-euclidian collection of offices, hotels, and common rooms, surrounded by an unending void. Eager to find others, he discovers that he's not alone... all of humanity has experienced the same thing, and many have lived in this hell for years, looking for answers. Zander must navigate this strange new world, dodging terrifying monsters, gaining power, and learning the boundaries of this insane reality. Note: This story does NOT use ai in any way, but the cover is a temporary AI cover, made by Gemini AI Image Generation, which serves as a placeholder and inspiration for when I eventually spend the time to make one myself. Once again, there is NO ai use in editing, brainstorming, proof-reading, or writing. The entire creative process is mine and mine alone. The cover art is not subject to copyright.

I'm a God to My Isekai Girlfriend!

Michael Cobb had it all: a golden arm, a college scholarship, and a ticket out of poverty—until a hit-and-run left him maimed, penniless, and stranded in a hospital reeking of antiseptic and regret. With his future crushed under medical debt and a phantom itch where his pitching arm used to be, he’s ready to give up… until a mysterious app hijacks his phone. [INSTALL COMPLETE] [Claim Your Perfect Companion!] Then the app appears. [CLAIM YOUR PERFECT COMPANION!] It’s a trashy mobile game—or so Michael thinks. But when he downloads it, he doesn’t get loot boxes or anime waifus. He gets Aiko: a scarred samurai girl shackled in a dungeon, her ribs cracked, her will broken, and her status bar screaming Suicide Risk: High. The rules are simple: pay to heal her, feed her, save her. Ninety-nine cents mends her bones. Two dollars buys her a meal. Forty-nine bucks triggers an earthquake to break her chains. But this is no game. Aiko is real. Every dollar Michael spends alters her world—and every choice binds them closer. As he drains his bank account to arm her against slavers, warlords, and a shadowy Teahouse empire, Aiko begins to revere her “Kami-sama.” Now Michael faces an impossible choice: hoard his last $1,000 for a crumbling future, or burn it all to fuel Aiko’s revolution. Because her enemies are hunting her. Her world is merging with his. And the app’s final warning still chills his screen: [ACCOUNT BINDS TO DNA. NO REFUNDS. NO ESCAPES.]

FORBIDDEN INTIMACY: UNCHAINED BY HIS LOVE

[WARNING MATURE CONTENT, R18+] Michael Specter is a handsome, successful entrepreneur with women throwing themselves at his feet just to spend a night. However, very few know about his menacing side. Twenty-two year old Layla Mclan is in desperate need of a higher-paying job to clear off her mother's debts. Opportunity comes knocking when she successfully applies for work in a richer household, the Conners. But life soon takes a turn when Layla finds out that there is no such household, and instead of working as a maid, she is now a slave to Michael Specter, a billionaire with a twisted mind. Layla’s eyes turned red, shoulders trembling, her soul wanting to reach out to her mom but alas… There was no way out, as she was already locked in the room, succumbing to the fears that didn’t feel very distant; She had gone through the same not long before. The agreement papers turned her body cold. Sometimes the worst seems best and there’s no end to the misery days; The one who avenges, the one who endures remains true to their valor. ‘Rule No. 1: Tending to your Master’s needs should be your top priority. Failing to do so, he can punish you however he pleases.’ ‘However, he pleases? What he’s gonna do to me?’ She mused and felt her heart sinking to the bottom of her chest. ‘Rule No. 2: You cannot say ‘no’ or oppose your Master’s orders.’ ‘Rule No. 3: You’re free to wear clothes of your choice… However, he can make you change it if he wants.’ ‘Rule No. 4: You are not allowed to step outside of the property.’ . . . Excerpt: “Ac-Actually I’m sleepy and I spent my day working for the household… Umm… Master, can I ask you something?” “Go ahead.” “I left my mom back home and I took this offer just to meet the debts… So will you pay me the said amount if I listen to your needs?” She asked in her feeble voice. “Needs Hmm… How about you strip off right now and lie down on the bed?” “What?” She exclaimed in horror. “You heard me,” he sounded dead serious. Layla gulped down the heavy lump that she had been holding for quite some time. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ***NOTE*** The cover isn’t mine.
