Yet, the arrival of the Xis, an omnipotent alien race, saved the human from mass extinction and forced them to live under the surface of the airless, dying planet. Their act wasn't selfless though. The Xis forced the human race to atone for their sins against the Earth by sending them on a journey to explore their ancient bloodlines. They created an artificial solar system with a planet for each of the ancient pantheons, and divided the remains of the human race according to their ancestors. Dag, an earthling kid, is about to undergo the test of his bloodline through an alien machine called "Temporum". The Temporum would send him to the Viking planet, where he will discover an eerie connection with the ancient Gods and learn to wield part of their power. However, he will soon find out that his bloodline hides far more than that... 6 pantheons 6 destination planets A multitude of Gods and supernatural powers. One destiny to fulfill. P.S.

Victor spent his entire life being consumed by a disease no vampire should possess. Bearer of the rare RH-Null — the so-called “golden blood” — he was meant to be extraordinary. Instead, he became an anomaly, a descendant of an ancient lineage whose power never awakened… only slowly killed him. While others rose… Victor waited for death. Even so, one person never left his side. His mother — once feared — sacrificed everything, even her own life, to keep him alive for just one more day. But it wasn’t enough. At the moment of his death, when everything should have ended, a voice echoed in his mind. Amused. Curious. Calling him an “experiment.” And leaving a single command: “Become the strongest.” Then, Victor awakened again. Younger. Perfect. Free from the disease that doomed him. And this time… his lineage had finally awakened. The blood that once killed him now holds a power beyond any vampire — something ancient, forbidden… and possibly absolute. Now, with a second chance and a purpose carved into his very being, Victor won’t just survive. He will ascend. And become something no vampire has ever dared to be. ________________ Additional tags: Fantasy - Adventure - Action - Romance - Harem - R18 - No NTR - No Yuri - Weak to Strong - Bloodlines - Evolution

"You're late," he said, without turning. Lydia smirked and let the door swing shut behind her with a solid thud. "By exactly two minutes. Hardly a capital offense." "Two minutes," he repeated. "Do you even know what I could do to you in that time?" He finally turned to face her and the moment his eyes landed on her, they changed. The look he gave her made her legs unsteady. Her breath caught in her throat. "Enlighten me." He stopped just inches away. Close enough she could smell him. He didn't touch her but somehow she could already feel his hands and mouth like they were everywhere. "I could have you up against this wall," he said slowly, eyes fixed on hers. "Your dress on the floor. My hand on your throat. And your mouth too busy moaning my name." Lydia squeezed her thighs together, her breathing catching. She was already warm all over, the ache building fast. And like he could feel it, Ethan reached up, brushing one finger along the strap of her dress. She shivered. The strap slid down her shoulder. Than the other. The dress slid down her body without resistance, looking at her feet. She didn't try to catch it. She just stood there, bare and breathing hard, her breast rising with each inhale. Ethan's eyes moved over her slowly. "Easy," he said under his breath. Lydia tilted her head and gave the faintest smile. "I'm good at following instructions." She tugged lightly at the hem of his shirt. "Can't say the same for you." *** What if your nightmares were memories of past lives?
