I became the villainess and married the cold duke

“My patience is a very expensive commodity, little bird, and you are currently burning through the budget.” The deep, layered baritone vibrated right through the stone floorboards, carrying a low, demonic rumble that turned the air to pure ice. Draven leaned back against the royal headboard, his bare torso glistening with sweat, while pitch-black obsidian scales lazily receded down his muscular arms. His dual-colored eyes—one a predatory, glowing crimson, the other a fractured, stormy silver—tracked my trembling form with absolute, dangerous boredom. "I... I was just looking at the window," I stammered, clutching the bedsheets to my chest. Draven let out a soft, insufferable sigh, a dangerous smirk playing at the edge of his lips as a giant, dark-feathered raven materialized out of the shadows and settled heavily onto his scaled shoulder. "Then look somewhere else before I decide your neck looks better in a noose. Go to sleep, Seraphina. Or don't. Personally, I find the prospect of your execution rather entertaining." --- ### **** **"So naive, Melanie. So stupid."** Those were the last words I heard before a bullet ended my life. Betrayed by my best friend and murdered by the man she loved, I thought the darkness of death was final. Instead, I woke up inside a web novel. Not as the beloved heroine. Not even as a lucky side character. I opened my eyes as **Seraphina Helene Valemont**—the spoiled, doomed villainess destined to be brutally executed for treason by her own husband, the notoriously cold and terrifying Duke Draven Everfrost. Armed with complete knowledge of the original plot, my survival strategy was simple: 1. Avoid making fatal mistakes. 2. Avoid the high-society enemies. 3. Above all else, **AVOID THE DUKE.** Except, the story refuses to follow the script. The monstrous Duke who was supposed to despise me is suddenly dragging me out of blood wars, tossing me swords to fight my own battles, and lazily controlling my limbs with dark magic just to mock my executioners. The events I memorized by heart are fracturing. Deeply buried political secrets are clawing their way to the surface, and the future I relied on changes with every passing sunrise. As deadly conspiracies threaten the empire and old legends refuse to stay buried, I am caught between a fate I desperately need to escape… and a demon masquerading as a man whom I was never supposed to trust. But the deeper I dig into the dark history of the North, the more terrifying one question becomes: *What if the most dangerous thing in this story was never the villainess?* Because some monsters are not born. Some monsters choose to chain themselves. And some names should have remained forgotten. **[MISSION UPDATE: SURVIVE.]** **[WARNING: ORIGINAL STORYLINE HAS DEVIATED.]** **[WARNING: UNKNOWN ENTITY DETECTED.]** **[CURRENT RISK LEVEL: CRITICAL.]** --- **~Author's Note:~** *First time writing a long, serialized story!

The Slow Life of Sienna-Rose & Her 4 Wives [GxG]

Sienna, a 40-year-old assistant manager at an IT company, feels trapped in a monotonous life, for the luxurious lifestyle she craves. Without wealthy parents or a mysterious inheritance from her grandfather, she has had to work tirelessly to fulfill her dreams of wine in the weekend, fishing on the yatch on summer, skiing by winter, and touring a vineyard in fall. Her relentless focus on her career has come at the expense of her relationships, with most of her past girlfriends either cheating on her or leaving due to her constant neglect. Sienna's go-to response when relationships end is, "What else do they need?" - she simply doesn't understand why her past partners couldn't be satisfied with her providing for their material needs. Seeking an escape, Sienna immerses herself in a video game called 'Vintage Point', where the protagonist, male/female, inherits their grandfather's vineyard and creamery. Through the use of cheating codes she got from the game community, Sienna amasses unlimited wealth and the ability to have multiple wives in the game - living out her dream life virtually. "Oh lord, rich, vineyard, and wives. My dream life." One night, after a few too many glasses of wine, Sienna passes out in front of her computer. When she wakes up, Sienna finds herself in a large, medieval-style house, surrounded by four distressed women who seem to blame her for their current life. Disoriented and unsure of what is happening, "What is happening?" This unexpected turn of events propels Sienna into a surreal situation, where the line between her virtual dream life and reality becomes blurred.

The Plant Master Becomes A Mute Sub-Beast: Farming And Laying Eggs

A Plant Master from a prosperous magical era died and reincarnated as a physically defective Sub-Beast on the Beastman Continent. Orphaned right after birth, he was raised by the entire tribe. Kaelen thought he would live a peaceful, uneventful life until the end of his days. Unexpectedly, during an instance where he accidentally wandered into a cave where a beastman was in a state of frenzy, he was violated by the beastman Sane. After that unintended night, neither of them liked the other, so they reached a secret agreement to keep the matter quiet. Sane took responsibility for providing Kaelen with daily necessities and various new seeds until one of them found a mate. Thanks to these supplies, Kaelen began using his Plant Master abilities from his past life to farm step by step, transforming the barren land around his house into a lush, little green farm. What Sane didn't expect was that the more he interacted with Kaelen, watching how quietly and gently Kaelen cared for each young sprout, the more adorable he found Kaelen to be. Sane grew to like being around Kaelen more and more, constantly reminiscing about the fresh scent of grass and vegetation lingering on Kaelen's body. Could it be... I've fallen for him? While Sane was still tangled up in his own feelings and had yet to realize that Kaelen's body was secretly gestating a little egg, Kaelen's bountiful magical harvests had already alerted the outside world. A whole bunch of stinky beastmen with formidable backgrounds began swarming around his soft, sweet-smelling darling to vie for Kaelen's attention. There was the incredibly arrogant Young Chief of the Lion Tribe, the fierce Intermediate Warrior of the High City, the Oracle of the Temple holding supreme authority... Sane: “...” Get lost, all of you! That's my son's Papa!

Reborn as Rias Gremory with a Multiversal System

Reincarnated as Rias Gremory, the fiery crimson-haired heroine of High School DxD, she quickly realizes that life inside her favorite ecchi anime is far more dangerous than it ever appeared on screen. Behind the glamorous façade of an elite devil princess lies a web of looming threats. The remnants of the Old Demon Faction coil in the shadows, the Calamity Group begins to stir, and catastrophic forces such as the Evil Tree and the Beast Emperor 666 threaten to plunge the world into chaos. Worse still, in the distant future stands a monstrous evil god powerful enough to overwhelm even the True Red Dragon God Emperor in mere moves and the mysterious Three Pillars, whose existence alone could shake the foundations of the underworld. And then there’s her own humiliating fate: reduced to a provocative title and treated as little more than a background fantasy for others. Refusing to remain a pawn in someone else’s story, Rias resolves to seize control of her destiny. No longer content with being a decorative “Switch Princess,” she sets her sights on absolute strength. Through strategy, alliances, and ruthless ambition, she will carve her own path, one of conquest, dominance, and survival. In a world where gods, dragons, and devils collide, can Rias Gremory rise above her predetermined role and become the strongest being in existence… or will the weight of prophecy crush her before she ever has the chance?
