Second Bench, First Feelings

Chaos_is_my_life
Is it a love story? It's a war. A war bbetween ranks and feelings. Between ego and attraction. Maybe distractions? Between "I don't care" and "why the hell do I care so much?" This is about the chaos friends create after vanishing for 2 years and unfinished romance that is reborn. What happened 2 years ago and what's going to happen next is to be found. Kiara Oberoi, a tranferee. She used to fearless, a fighter, teacher's favourite and everyone's idol. The girl who would shut the class up with one look. Then lockdown happened. And suddenly, she forgot how to be that girl. With new school. New faces and bigger competition. Will she regain herself or change for better? Anyhow she gives life to her section which gradually becomes the most chaotic and troublemaker section of this school. Because intelligence and madness can co-exist. Friendships form. Friendships break. Crushes start as jokes and end as disasters. Egos clash like plates in a messy kitchen. One minute they're fighting over ranks. Next minute they're fighting over who likes whom. And Kiara? She's stuck in the middle. Trying to win academically. Trying to protect her heart. Because in this class, nobody lives peacefully. Nobody competes gently. And nobody forgets easily. It's teenage life. Messy, Loud, Romantic, Petty And Deep So Deep. So annoying! Kiara wants the top rank, she wants control. She wants to prove she still is *that* girl. Unfortunately, the universe sends her competition with a face. A handsome one? Vihaan Ahuja. The quiet, dangerous kind. Good at academics. Good at sports. Good at music. Good at comebacks. Exactly what Kiara used to be and what she wants to be again. He avoids girls like they're exams he didn't study for. He doesn't chase attention. It follows him anyways. And somehow, every academic battle between them feels personal. So annoying! Then there's Arjun Mehra. The opposite. Relaxed and Charming without trying. Doesn't care about ranks - but cares about winning on the field. Where Vihaan is silent tension, Vihaan is easy warmth. Where Vihaan competes with his mind, Arjun slowly enters her heart without asking permission. One challenges her. The other understands her. One makes her angry. The other makes her comfortable. One looks at her like she's a rival. The other looks at her like she's something more. So Deep. Kiara has to choose- Win the rank? Win the argument? Or lose her heart? This isn't a love triangle. This is a love-polygon. When sparks start flying between people who refused to admit what they feel... Things don't just get dramatic. They explode

Mythical stones decide who is worthy of wielding power, while stolen coins feed on human fates.

As ancient seals shatter and the Ravagers of the Vein emerge, Lilithia’s existence is revealed to be more than a key to salvation… She is the door that will force the world to confront its own lie. Featuring a dual LitRPG system of Living Stones and Heart Coins, where power grows through synchronization, stolen fate, and dangerous progression. ( Original System LitRPG ) [Gender : Male Lead]

Ordinary Michael

If I had known I would ever write again, I wouldn't have lived the last 20 years in this state. These were his last words, and the end of the beginning of the first thing I wanted to write. He died and left this paper for you, you bastards.

Her Softest Weapon: A White Room Experiment

This is a fanfiction based on the anime Classroom of the Elite. While the characters and setting are inspired by the original work, the story and plot are entirely my own creation. Significant changes have been made to the original story, including the absence of Ayanokoji and the introduction of a new White Room-trained protagonist. All ideas, scenarios, and character developments are original and written by me. Shirogane Rei, a highly trained White Room student, transfers to Class D of Advanced Nurturing High School a chaotic class known for its weakness and disorder. Armed with intelligence, charisma, and the ability to manipulate emotions with deadly precision, Rei turns romance, desire, and even sensuality into instruments of control. Every interaction, every whispered touch, and every seductive glance is calculated, designed to test the limits of human emotion and dominance. As she orchestrates chaos and manipulates her classmates for observation, Rei discovers something unexpected: emotions she never experienced, connections she never anticipated, and a dangerous allure that may even threaten her own control. A psychological, erotic, and manipulative journey into desire, power, and the fine line between love and domination.

House of the Dragon: The Dragonlord

Nolan Brown was a crisis management expert in Chicago until a delivery truck ended his life and threw him into the smoke and fire of Westeros. Now inhabiting the body of Naelarion, a neglected Valyrian bastard on Dragonstone, he finds himself caught between the brewing civil war of the Blacks and the Greens. Unlike the knights of the realm, Naelarion possesses a suite of Raw Valyrian Blood Magic—powers like Iron Flesh that erase his bruises and Shadow Weaving that allows him to manipulate the very darkness of the Red Keep. As he navigates a world where meta-knowledge is his greatest weapon and his "Social Intuition" lets him read the hidden desires of figures like Daemon Targaryen, he realizes that his evolution comes at a steep price. He is a man who can bond with multiple dragons, a feat unseen since the Doom, but every feat of magic is a debt recorded in blood. In a court where trust is a death sentence, Naelarion must decide if he will be the savior of the Targaryen dynasty or the catalyst that ensures its fire finally goes out, all while hiding a 74% "Uncanny Valley" rating that makes the very people he protects feel a primal urge to fear him.

Surviving A Novel I Don't Remember: A Tutor's Guide To Staying Alive

"If I can just stay under the radar, I might survive the final chapter." Kim Jowoon woke up in a novel world as the illegitimate fourth son of a marquis, Julian Von Astrea, and it looked like every single character hated him. It was a world where everyone looked like a protagonist—shining eyes, tragic backstories, destiny practically dripping off them. Everyone except him. He didn't even get a script. Then the Affection System popped up and crushed his hopes in one clean line of text: every so-called “hero” in the capital had a solid 0% interest in his continued existence. Naturally, Julian did the most reasonable thing possible—he ran. Straight into the safest job he could think of: tutoring the young son of the Empire's most reclusive (and famously cold) Duke. The plan was foolproof. Win over the kid, stay invisible, collect a fat paycheck, and live long enough to die of old age instead of plot relevance. It didn't go smoothly at first. The child barely spoke, the Duke barely appeared, and Julian briefly wondered if he'd chosen the wrong kind of death. But somehow… it worked. The Duke's son slowly warmed up to him. Lessons became warm conversations, and silence turned into trust. And even stranger, the Duke's affection level didn't just rise—it skyrocketed into something Julian absolutely had not planned for. For the first time since transmigrating, he felt safe. Then the Empire started falling apart. A masked criminal began tearing through the capital, and Julian started waking up with missing memories and an unsettling sense of déjà vu. No wounds. No explanations. Just the feeling that something had happened—and that he was better off not remembering it. He had thought he was the one being hunted. But the higher the Duke's affection climbed, the more frequent the blackouts became, and the more a terrifying possibility took shape. He came here to survive the story. Now, he was starting to suspect the Duke wasn't protecting him from the plot at all… He was protecting the plot from him.
