Second Chance: A Dark Tale of Urban India

Hawkclaw
[Anti-Hero | Revenge story] "What the fu..?! I got transmigrated?" "Holy shit… A 44-year-old M!LF, a 25-year-old sister, a 21-year-old younger one, and twin cousins my age? And this idiot was adopted? Thank you, God. I swear I'm not wasting this second chance." 'So this fool was raised like a lamb…but they have no idea that this very lamb is about to turn into a lion.' ********************************************************** Meet, Riku Higashi, a notorious Japanese hacker on the run, dies tragically.  But fate isn't finished with him. He is reborn in India as an 18-year-old high schooler, Rohit with a brand new identity and a house full of tempting opportunities. Raised as the heir to a billionaire, Rohit soon discovers the truth: this life is not a gift, but a countdown. Once he turns twenty, he is meant to be disposed of. What begins as freedom quickly twists into tension. What his handlers fail to realize is that in his past life, Riku was no ordinary criminal. He was a master mind wanted by twenty-one nations—a wolf in sheep's clothing. Given the perfect opportunity, he can return every betrayal a thousandfold. This new life offers pleasure, power, and the tempting possibility of redemption. He could erase his criminal past and live in comfort, untouched by shadows. But fate has other plans. The very secret organization responsible for his death has resurfaced, haunting his path to power once more. As his past tightens its grip, Rohit must choose: hide behind a new face—or confront the darkness head-on. To the world, he could become a billionaire prodigy. To the underworld, a relentless hunter. And this time, he has everything to lose, and everything to take back. One thing is certain. His story will not be confined within a single nation’s borders.

Death's hand

Survival was the first thing Lorelei had learned. Her power had marked her from birth, a curse that should have left her abandoned — yet someone still took her in, raised her, cared for her. She knew it couldn't last, knew something would shatter the fragile peace, but she clung to that faint hope anyway: that this happiness would stretch on forever. It didn't. Just as she had with her mother, her own hands had killed him. And in the wreckage of her grief, a figure emerged — the only answer to her questions, the only guide through the bloody path she walked carrying along the sorrow of those she killed.

Pokémon: Prince of Thorns

So. I messed up. Like... “broke reality, flipped off causality, and forced God to factory reset me with a sigh” kind of messed up. One moment, I was trying to do the right thing. The next? Arceus appears like a glitchy pop-up ad and says: “Alright, screw it. You get a redo. But I’m throwing you back ten years early, into a much harder version of the world, and giving you one spin of the Wheel of Fate. Don’t die. Again.” Cool. Great. Love that for me. Now I’m stuck growing up in Goldenrod City—yeah, with her, not Lyra—and everything’s different. Stronger Gym Leaders. Wild Pokémon that fight like they’ve read competitive Smogon threads. Legendary Pokémon that aren’t just strong—they’re divine. Oh, and the anime, manga, and games? All part of the same world now. And guess who’s stuck in the middle of that multiverse mess with a glowing arm and emotional damage? Yours truly. I don’t know if I should be grateful or terrified about what the Wheel gave me—probably both. I’ve got a partner that bites, a power I don’t understand, and let’s just say I’m not exactly lonely… but don’t ask. You’ll see. Eventually. Anyway, it’s fine. Totally fine. I’m definitely not spiraling. “Wait… oh Arceus no—the Hydreigon’s back.” ----- MC: Ethan Ship: Ethan X Harem This fanfic is inspired by the Fanfic Pokemon: Day Bringer, so a lot things from that Fanfic may come here, but be very different

My Casino Thief

The Casino Thief Alex Cinder steals to survive — tips, secrets, and on one reckless night, ninety thousand dollars in casino tokens to save his sister's life. He never expects to get caught. He definitely never expects to get caught by the casino's owner. Lawrence Grey has a problem of his own: a family fortune tied to a marriage he has no intention of meaning, and parents who won't take "I'll find someone" for an answer much longer. When he realizes the nervous thief who robbed him blind is exactly the leverage he needs, he makes Alex an offer he can't refuse — four years of marriage, in exchange for the crime disappearing. It's supposed to be a transaction. A performance for Law's parents, an escape hatch for Alex's debt, nothing more. Neither of them counts on falling in love along the way. But happiness has a way of catching attention it shouldn't, and Alex's recovering sister — starved for years of the connection she watches her brother find so easily — starts wanting something that was never hers to take. As her fixation deepens into something far more dangerous than a crush, Alex and Law are forced to confront how much they're willing to risk to protect what they've built, and what it costs all of them when wanting the wrong thing for too long finally breaks someone wide open. A slow-burn marriage of convenience with real teeth — about choosing each other on purpose, the families we build instead of the ones we're given, and what it takes to come back from the people we almost become.
