Johnathan, an old man with an extraordinary past but an ordinary end, gets reincarnated in a dark fantasy world full of magic, darkness, and mysteries furled. However, he committed a grave blunder by taking the fiction he had read as a reference. Reborn as a baby, he hoped to be deemed gifted by speaking early. One thing led to another, and tragedy struck. The villagers declared him a demon-possessed and called the church. Johnathan, now known as Sylvester Maximilian, realized that he had messed up. When the church's inquisitors came to judge him and burn him on a pyre. As a last resort and to welcome his soon to arrive second death, he started chanting holy hymns as his last breath. Overwhelmed, they kneeled, thinking he was a messenger of Solis. From there, the story of how Sylvester Maximilian rose through the ranks to sit at the top began. But his life won't be ordinary, as he uses his cunning and the tag of 'God's favored' to his advantage. Fighting treachery, unearthing secret plots and world mysteries, facing the darkness around him and creating his place in history, engraving his name in the annals to be forever remembered as the—Immortal Pope, The Young. [A/N: To not mislead you, the novel's name does not mean he instantly becomes the Pope from the start. The story will follow the life of MC.

Twenty-five-year-old Everly Eloise, a pure-blooded orphan werewolf, is hired by a wealthy man who suddenly needs a caregiver.   She accepted the job, but one thing she didn’t anticipate was his monstrous side. The side of him that the media never showed, or at least never even knew of.   Valerio Avalanzo was a wealthy European man who was betrayed by his lover, leaving him in a condition that he very well hid from the entire world.   The incident caused him to drastically change. He became cold-hearted, feared by most, unsociable, emotionless, and, worst of all, developed a deep hatred for the word "love."   For a man who was blind and held such deep hatred for love, it was believed that he was emotionally incapable of loving anyone, therefore leaving the world with this perception of him.   But what happens when he meets Everly Eloise, his caregiver?   Will his heart win, or will his hatred for love win? And what happens when he discovers that Everly is not just his caregiver but a werewolf as well? The creatures that have been an enemy of his kind for centuries? And, was their encounter decided by fate or maybe it's a given chance? A chance given to each of their hearts to heal? ______ This book is in a contest! Please give your full support.
