Cyberpunk 2021

Mar0gi
Spoiled by luxury and driven by ambition, Artemis—a young hitwoman—can’t seem to escape the shadows of a fractured world left behind by those who came before her. In cities made of neon-lit ruins and broken promises, she’s learnt to survive by cutting corners and making deals in the dark. But the interesting thing about survival, is that it always comes at a cost. And the further she goes, the messier it gets. As Artemis sinks further into a world of corporate corruption and underground schemes, she begins to realize she’s caught in the unfinished business of a forgotten war. A war with secrets so deep that even its echoes can still change lives, challenge loyalties, and threaten everything she thought she knew. But how long can she keep doing this? Running from the past—hers and everyone else’s? Now, with a buried conspiracy that’s been building for two decades starting to unravel, its consequences could reshape the future of the world itself. (This story is based on the Cyberpunk 2020 universe but is effectively its own.)

The Dragon Heir's Secret Mother

She is his enemy. He wants her son. And he just asked her to marry him. “Marry me.” “W-What?” Selene came to the Northern Territory under a false name—Lina—with a single goal: to uncover the truth behind the black scales on her son’s shoulder and the identity of his mysterious father. Instead of answers, she finds herself face-to-face with Caelis Valerian, the Grand Duke of the North—a man feared for his ruthlessness toward mages, yet revered as the unwavering protector of the beast clans. To the world, Lina is nothing more than an ordinary woman. But in truth, she is Selene—a powerful mage and swordswoman, feared by bandits and respected by mortals. Her son, Claude, however, appears to be an ordinary little boy. So why does the Grand Duke take such a keen interest in him… to the point of naming him his heir? To make Claude his legitimate successor, Caelis offers Lina a three-year contract marriage—one she cannot refuse. What begins as a cautious arrangement soon shifts. Trust grows as the distance between them fades, and before they realize it, love begins to bloom. But love built on secrets is fragile. Selene is the legendary Lunar Frost Sovereign—the very enemy Caelis has been hunting, with a bounty placed on her head. And Caelis, unaware of the truth, hesitates to grow closer to her, believing her heart still belongs to the man who fathered Claude… his own brother. When the truth is finally revealed, will their love survive—or will their contract marriage shatter before it ever truly begins?
