When he stumbled onto forbidden files, and a special task from his boss, his life is put into a much dangerous situation. Black markets and underground business just don’t go together with a typical average man.

2. I Do, Not
It was a bit stupid of John to propose to his longtime girlfriend, Celine, right in Las Vegas, outside Caesars Palace, on whim.

3. Severo Mela
An accidental encounter with the deadliest assassin will put the very underworld playground Jeral rules into a land of deception, destruction, and debauchery, where forbidden love is defined in an all new level and star-crossed lovers aren’t the luckiest couples at all.

4. Love Goes A Long, Long Way
There’s only one thing Jeanne wants, and that’s to win the heart of the university’s coldest lady, Selene Anderson.

Life with the Andersons will never be the same anymore.

5. Oh, No You Don’t!
Daniella Beckett and Natalie Nutte are the best of friends. But insert a certain guy, senior year, brand new class and a bunch of high-profile seats waiting, things might have to change.

6. Trackers
In their world, it’s all about jobs and payments. The world has been divided into house people, politics, corporals, mercenaries and the trackers.

SYNDROME UNIVERSE

Truth Trilogy
Prequel to the Syndrome Trilogy, centered on the Vatican Incident.

1. Naked Truth
Five years before Andrew Vicerra became a legendary crime lord, he was just a struggling heir to his dying father’s company. Five years before Dean Anderson became a criminal mastermind, he was a law-abiding, honest-to-God federal agent. Five years before the rise of Kritiker and the Vatican incident, the two met and developed a bond that not even death could transcend.

2. Vergessene Wahrheit
To acquire the greatest knowledge in mankind, Faust sold his soul to the Devil. To continue living outside his rotting body, Jeral Simoni sold his coven to the Death. He hypothesized the black blood, created the spectral of Death, and stole a young boy’s future for his own. All these he had done for the sake of vengeance, not knowing that even the almighty heart of the Niebelheim coven can’t escape the inevitable.

3. Verita Nascosta
They ran away from their history to live a peaceful life. They ran away from their past to start anew. But when Fate comes back knocking on their front door, Selene and Helios must find a way to survive and escape the inhumane experiments of both Kritiker and Ægis.

Syndrome Trilogy
(includes Original and Revised versions)

1. Stockholm Syndrome (Mirror)

Stockholm Syndrome: The Revised Edition
Jeanne Vergessen is just an ordinary boy studying in Niebel High, a high school for the societal outcasts. His life changes though when he befriended an albino girl and met her pyrokinetic twin brother, along with the rest of the freaks he had to team up with to save the world from the Niebelheim. Meanwhile, Chris Balteisse struggles between his duty and his role as a friend, not knowing the wake of the Niebelheim lies on his final decision.

2.Munchausen Syndrome (Mirror)

Munchausen Syndrome: Revised
With Selene kidnapped and the truth behind Binder surfacing, Jeanne must bear full responsibility over the second war. Yet hope seems lost when his friends are hiding the truth from him, and the people he thought he could trust are actually the people who want him dead. Old friends become new enemies as old enemies become new friends, and now, Jeanne must choose the future that isn’t his, or that of a traitor’s.

3. Asperger Syndrome
The war is about to come to an end with all heirs of the Niebelheim coven gathered. A new heart is chosen, and with Jeanne’s betrayal on the back of their mind, the heirs once again face their greatest enemy—the living ghost of Jeral Simoni, Jeanne Vergessen.

Untold Stories Anthology
Character-centered stories

Broken Promises Trilogy
Focuses on the relationship between the Tang and the Romanov.

1. Orchid and Lily
“Even if this love can never be returned, at least let me spend each of my waking moment with you, loving you, in this play of tragedy.”
It was his dream to unite the Romanov and the Tang after so many years of dispute. He thought he could achieve that dream by befriending the Tang’s supposed-to-be heir, Chris Balteisse. What he hadn’t thought of was that anger and hatred runs deep in the Tang’s blood, and that deceit and betrayal runs in his.

2. Under the Pelting Rain
“I want you to search for your own answer. Until that day comes, let me stay with you.”
Lucian Romanov isn’t the kind of man to believe in love at first sight. Yet on his very first glimpse of Tang Seiran, everything changed.

3. This Romance We Shall Live
“Meant to be or not, I don’t care! All that matters is that you love me, and I love you, and we’re going to fight for us until the very end.”

-

1. Omertá
Adrian knew his brother was involved with the Romanov family, accomplishing missions as a professional hitman.

Author’s Note:This chapter is like, a huge difference from the others, partially because halfway through writing it, I lost the entire file of MS thanks to a corruption in my flashdrive. orz So I had to rewrite the entire thing with barely a memory from the first version (since I wrote that out of whim). But anyway, this chapter is sort of… dramatic, in a way. The only thing I’m glad about this chapter is that finally, the plot is moving. T^T It’s so hard to make the plot move when you don’t know which idea to express first.

Author’s Note: Chapter is more focused on Lucian’s side. Zide’s still alive, and so are Chris and Mikhail. The rest are all Lucian and some more talks that’ll gonna blow everyone’s head with the heavy information dumping. In case no one remembers, the heart they’re referring to is the very heart Mikhail steals back in Stockholm, in the old biolab, somewhere in chapter 10. The rest of the explanation shall come sooner or later. But I swear I will get to explain everything. Srsly.

Author’s Note: Alright, time to take a deep breath… and say this chapter is longer than the past two. And somehow, Stockholm atmosphere is back. I had lots of fun writing Huang Lei’s parts, especially as Angelo and Jonathan, lol. And oh! One weird thing I’ve noticed only just recently. Huang Lei’s name is supposed to mean Red Tears when translated from Chinese, but somehow, I had misspelled it lol. So instead of Hong Lei, it became Huang Lei, which means Yellow Tears. So! …just pretend you don’t know it’s a mistake. XD lol So stupid of me, I know. Can’t believe I had let such a thing go under my nose just like that. orz

Author’s Note: Wooh! This chapter took me so long to finish. Munchausen nearly lost the light when things went a bit busy here, but I guess it’s the presence of deadlines and term papers demanding to be worked on that prompted me to spend more time in writing this than actually doing them. Anyway, here’s chapter 2, with something still not having the same atmosphere as Stockholm’s.

Author’s Note:
With Stockholm now finished, Munchausen is ready to go through the mill. Now this is to hoping that I won’t get carried away. To the new comers, please: read Stockholm Syndrome first before this, because this one picks off directly after Stockholm.

Summary: With Selene kidnapped and the truth behind Binder’s attack surfacing, Jeanne must bear full responsibility over the second war. Yet all hopes seem lost now that everyone he trusts leaves his side, and the people he thought he could trust are actually the people who want him dead.

Author’s Note: The last chapter! Woohoo! Editing will begin on January, since December will be the editing month of my Nanowrimo. And… er.. I doubt I’ll be able to work much on December, since I really need to take a breath. September, October and November have been real Hellish months to be, and I’ve been sick from the latter half of October to the earlier half of November, so I really need a rest. Plans for Syndrome? Well, I’ll be working on Munchausen while at the same time doing a side project, called Severo Mela, which is a whole new novel itself but with same characters. So in short, different storyline, different universe, same characters. Mood will be darker and things will be more serious, and rating might reach mild R. But it’s still on the drawing board. I’m still doubtful of whether or not it’ll work.

Anyway, here it is, the last chapter of Stockholm. A one year and a couple few days of complete hardships, nosebleeding, sleepless nights, damn author’s blocks, rainbow colored bunnies, thousand drafts, Coke, carrot juice, pockies and camping in cemeteries.

Disclaimer: Last Crossand its lyrics are properties of Mitsuoka Masami.
Author’s Note: This chapter is both hard and fast to write. I have all these things in my mind and I had them all outlined and it’s gonna take for me is to write them down into sentence structures and make sure I’m not missing any point or straying from the outline. Though I did ended up scrapping the rest of the outline by the time I reached the part where Jeanne went to the rooftop. The story just began writing on its own, and I’ve become just a typist.

Originally, I’ve planned this to be the last chapter, and just stuff the epilogue at the end. But things weren’t, well… I think it would be monstrous of me to put it all here, so I’ve separated the epilogue from this one. Actually, it’s not really an epilogue at all–wait, let me rephrase that again. It is not an epilogue. lol Anyway, next is the last chapter already, and finally an end to Stockholm as I now start packing for my Nanowrimo, where Jeanne, Selene, Chris, Mikhail and Armand will be returning to, with Meia, Hilda, Krista and the others as their real selves (aka Kimberly, Razel, Michele, and others, respectively lol).

Author’s Note: One thing I can say about this chapter is that it’s a killer chapter. Information overload, and god, this is that one particular chapter that took more more than a month to finish. From here on starting, chapters will be long and information will a lot.

Author’s Note: Another chapter I can’t remember on what had happened anymore lol. Anyway, I think it is this chapter and the next that’s going to be focusing on a new revelation about Chris and Zide. Also, Jonathan Balteisse is a Singaporean smuggler working under Lucian. Just thought of making it clear now, since I might not be elaborating about him at all.
