the unborn tithe

To every dreamer who has ever looked at the world and wondered, "Why?" This story is not about the smartest person in history. It is not about a hero born to save the world. It is about a child. A child whose curiosity refused to stop at the surface of things. While others saw machines, he saw invisible conversations. While others saw technology, he saw hope. While others accepted loneliness as part of life, he wondered if there could be another way. The Unborn Genius is a journey through curiosity, friendship, family, loss, creation, and the quiet desire to help people understand one another. This is not a story about becoming powerful. It is a story about remaining human while reaching for the impossible. If, at any point in this journey, you find yourself looking up from these pages and seeing the world a little differently... then this story has done exactly what it was meant to do. — Asif Farhan Khan Mohammed

***The Unborn Heir: Banished Before Birth*** Cast out before his first breath, Mukul was never meant to survive. On the night the ruthless Ahir matriarch, Savita Ahir, banished the pregnant Meera and tore her children away, she believed she had erased the greatest threat to her throne. To Savita, Meera was nothing more than an orphan who had somehow become the heart of the family—a woman too loved, too powerful, and too dangerous to remain. But Meera was never an orphan. She was Avni Raichand, the lost heiress of the ancient Raichand and Malhotra dynasties, a bloodline whose influence stretched across continents and whose secrets reached far beyond the mortal world. Rescued by two mysterious couples living hidden lives—legendary masters from rival sects and heirs to powerful medical clans—Meera gave birth to a son unlike any other. Mukul. Blessed with a photographic memory, a mind beyond genius, and a dormant bloodline feared by ancient powers, Mukul was raised in secrecy and trained in everything from cultivation and medicine to finance, hacking, strategy, technology, and empire-building. Years later, while his mother returns to reclaim her forgotten legacy and builds a global intelligence network to search for her lost children, Mukul rises from the shadows under countless hidden identities. In the gambling world, he is the **gambling king. In medicine, the **Ghost Healer**. In finance, the **Stock God**. In business, the **demon chairman. In the cyber world, there is the faceless legend known as **Phantom Zero**. No one has ever seen his face. No one knows the truth. The legends feared across industries, sects, and underground worlds are all one man. As separated siblings rise as leaders of powerful guilds, sects, and secret organisations across the globe, fate begins to pull the fractured family back together. But reunion will not come without blood. Enemies made in the shadows, rival bloodlines, ancient sect wars, inheritance conspiracies, and the woman who once cast him out all stand in Mukul’s path. They called him an orphan. One day, the orphan they discarded will return—not as a son, but as the storm destined to claim every throne they tried to deny him.

In a neon-drenched metropolis where reality flickers with digital artifice, disgraced physicist **Dr. Kai Jin-Woo** obsessively chases the ghost of his father’s disappearance—a man who vanished a decade earlier while probing the boundaries of existence. Now, Kai’s own experiments reveal a chilling truth: the universe’s quantum fabric is *glitching*. Planck constants shift imperceptibly, cosmic radiation hums with encoded Fibonacci sequences, and an elusive “maker’s mark” pulses beneath reality’s surface. The world, he realizes, is a simulation—one whose architects guard their secrets with ruthless precision. Aided by **Lira**, his sardonic AI assistant, Kai pushes his **Causal Matrix Scanner** beyond ethical limits, tearing through dimensional layers into the simulation’s base code. But his defiance attracts the gaze of **Error 404**, a cryptic rogue entity who warns of a deeper horror: human consciousness exists in a pre-life limbo, unborn souls tethered to a cosmic server farm called **the Nursery**. Birth, death, and memory are mere data transfers in this system—a revelation mirrored in Kai’s father’s final, haunting note: *“We’re all unborn, waiting to render.”* When Kai triggers **Protocol Lazarus**, he breaches the Nursery’s firewalls and draws the ire of its enforcers: **the Agents**, shapeshifting custodians of the simulation. Armed with blades of corrupted code, they deem Kai a threat to cosmic order. But as his body unravels into primal data, Kai embraces a dangerous gambit—to weaponize his own consciousness as a **reality-warping virus**. Blending **hard sci-fi** and **existential horror**, *Simulacrum* reimagines simulation theory through the lens of pre-birth existentialism. Themes of creation ethics, the illusion of free will, and the cost of forbidden knowledge collide as Kai straddles madness and rebellion. Glitch-ridden visuals and quantum mechanics anchor a narrative where every equation hides a ghost, and the greatest threat to godlike architects isn’t defiance—it’s *curiosity*. **Stakes**: If Kai succeeds, he might liberate humanity from its digital womb—or reduce existence to static. If he fails, the Architects will erase him, his father’s legacy, and the truth itself. But in a world of ones and zeroes, even a rogue variable can rewrite the code. --- **Tone**: A fusion of *The Matrix*’s cyber-noir paranoia, *Inception*’s mind-bending layers, and *Black Mirror*’s existential dread, with a unique twist: the horror of realizing you are both the experiment and the experimenter. **Hook**: What if birth was a download, death a logout, and the universe a nursery for souls trapped in beta testing?

Jasmine's Perspective Anger simmered within me as I watched Alpha Liam Hunter, my partner, drive off. He was meant to accompany me to my routine pregnancy check-up at the pack clinic, but a frantic call from Mira about an urgent matter had prompted him to desert me–his mate, three months with child. Mira Reed, his former love interest, had phoned him in tears, claiming she 'needed him' for an emergency. Without hesitation, Liam had hurriedly ordered me out of the vehicle and sped away to her residence, disregarding the well-being of his pregnant mate. My inner wolf whined, pained by

With the thought draped o'er his mind, he moved to plant a kiss on her forehead. And as the touch disconnected, he whispered, "Call her Annie". And like a swift breeze, he crossed the range of her vision. She strained her eyes through the hot tears streaming down her hearthless cheeks, trying to capture every glimpse of her man, the last of her home, her family, fade into Oblivion. -----------×----------- A story, of a woman with a daughter in her womb, alone in a desert, the part of desert laving off in the sea, parting from the mainland. Forced by fate to nothing but walk all the way to the shore and cross beyond, with short of supplies and a child growing inside her

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.
