family

She built him an empire. He threw her away for her dying stepsister. So she married the billionaire who'd owned her heart since before she could remember. For six years, Isabella Sinclair sacrificed her dreams, her trust fund, her soul to transform Ethan Park from nobody into somebody. At their wedding day, he shattered her world: he's marrying her stepsister Vanessa instead. It's her dying wish. Once she's gone, he promises, he'll come back. Isabella would rather burn than be anyone's second choice. But betrayal runs deeper than a broken heart. Her family strips her of her inheritance, her home, her name and throws her out like yesterday's trash. Broken. Helpless. Alone. They have no idea who they're dealing with. When a forgotten marriage contract surfaces, a contract signed seventeen years ago between the Sinclairs and the Whitmore family, Isabella discovers a truth that changes everything: she's been engaged this entire time. To Alexander Whitmore. The coldest, most powerful CEO in the country. The one man who can destroy everyone who wronged her. His proposal is simple: a contract marriage. One year. He gets his inheritance. She gets her revenge. No feelings. No complications. Just mutual destruction of their enemies. But when Ethan discovers Isabella has married the one man who can dismantle everything he's built, he comes crawling back, desperate and broken. "Please," he begs. "Look at me one more time..." Isabella smiles and turns to the man beside her, the one who was always meant to be hers. "Sorry, but I'm already married. To my REAL fiancé." In a world where love is currency and betrayal is business, two broken souls forge a partnership deadlier than any romance, until the lines between revenge and real love blur beyond recognition.

Adrian Vale was supposed to have it all—a billion-dollar empire, a bride who loved him, and a legacy carved in his name. He was kind, trusting, and believed loyalty meant something. Until he was betrayed and lost everything on the day that was suppose to be the happiest day of his life. Adrian stood at the altar and watched his fiancée walk into his brother’s arms, the same brother who stole his birthright in front of everyone, and from that day on, the gentle heir died. What emerged was a man forged in ice and fury. Years later, Adrian rebuilt himself into something far more powerful than what was stolen from him. He became the predator in every boardroom, the nightmare his enemies whispered about, and the man who trusted no one and needed nothing. His life was perfectly controlled, he was cold, calculating, and completely alone, with no weakness, or love, and he stop giving people second chances. Then Elena Marlowe walked into his world. She had warm eyes that saw past his walls, a genuine smile that made him feel almost human again, and an innocence that didn’t belong anywhere near a man like him. She didn’t run when he pushed her away. She didn’t break when he was cruel. What Adrian doesn’t know? Elena was sent to destroy him. Planted by his enemies to become his weakness, to slip past every defense he’d built, to make him feel again—so they could rip it all away. And what Elena doesn’t know? She’s the weapon. And she has no idea she’s being used. When the man who vowed never to love again meets the woman designed to break him, the line between revenge and redemption begins to blur. He starts feeling things he swore he’d buried forever. She starts seeing the wounded man beneath the monster. But when the truth comes out—when Adrian discovers the one person who made him believe in love again was sent to ruin him—will he become the villain everyone feared? Or will she be the only one who can save them both? In a world built on betrayal, can two broken people find something worth fighting for?

Haruki Aoyama did not inherit money. He inherited a kindergarten. The lawyer had looked apologetic when he handed over the documents. There was no building listed. No land ownership. Just a name and a key. The key was silver. And strangely warm. His mother had always loved her kindergarten more than anything. More than sleep. More than herself. More than him. But Haruki never hated her for it. He had grown up in his grandmother’s kitchen instead—surrounded by warm meals, folded laundry, and quiet affection. If anything, he understood. Some people were simply born to care for children. And so was he. On his day off, with mild curiosity and very little expectation, Haruki followed the address written in the will. He unlocked the door. And stepped into the sky. White stretched endlessly around him. And in the center of that endless space— Was a kindergarten. Small. Bright. Peaceful. Waiting. Haruki blinked. Closed the door. Opened it again. Still there. A soft chime echoed above him. [Dimensional Kindergarten System Activated.] [Energy Level: 0.] [Welcome, Host.] “Eh?” He stepped inside. Tiny chairs. Clean tables. Empty cubbies. A classroom with no children. The silence felt… lonely. Another message shimmered in the air. [Primary Function: Rescue children in danger.] [World Access: Locked.] [Energy Required.] Haruki read it twice. “…So there are children who need help?” The air pulsed faintly. Like a quiet yes. His chest tightened. He didn’t ask how. He didn’t ask why. If there were children crying somewhere— That was enough. Haruki set his bag down on the nearest desk. “Okay,” he said gently. “I’ll help.” And far beyond that quiet white dimension— In a world of iron and ash— A rift split the battlefield in two. A child disappeared. And a man with white hair and cold blue eyes reached into empty space— For the first time in his life— Too late. Back in the silent kindergarten— A single cubby lit up. Energy: 1 ---

Everly, a connoisseur of orphan-to-riches tropes, always assumed her origin story began with a dramatic abandonment at the orphanage gates. Turns out, her life was even more cliché than her favorite novels! She wasn't merely dumped; she was swapped—a long-lost heiress to a vast fortune. Just when she thought her life couldn't get any more tropey, a mysterious System materialized, offering her a chance at a "good ending." The catch? Its "abilities" ranged from the utterly bizarre to the downright mortifying, making Everly question if a happy ending was truly worth the existential cringe. *** System 006: [Host, please choose 1 of these 3 system abilities!] Everly: "They're all weird! Let me just pick random!" System 006: [Hehe... host, I forgot to say that each system will have consequences, so something will happen to you when you use it...] Everly: "!!!" Days later, having been reunited with her biological family and experimenting with the System's... unique function, the consequence were already glaringly apparent. Her beloved brother: "My little sister is precious, but I need therapy to keep up with her alien-like thinking." Handsome man 1: "She's a pervert! I'm scared she'll take my innocence..." Handsome man 2: "Every time she talks, I feel like killing her. Is that normal?" NOTE: Please disconnect all logical circuits before proceeding with this novel, as it's an absolute chaotic comedy where the MC, Everly, has several screws loose in her brain. Don't expect much normalcy here—sanity checked out long ago and never came back.

Rebirth + Era + 1960's - Femine + System Space + Military + Powerful Male protogonist At seventy-eight years old, she died with nothing but regret. Only at the end of her life did she learn the cruel truth— the world she had struggled through was nothing more than a novel. And she… was cannon fodder. Her father, once a Squad leader, was falsely branded a traitor and executed. Her three brilliant elder brothers were crushed one by one, stepping stones for the novel’s so-called “female lead.” Her family’s blood paved the road to the heroine’s glory. She could only watch helplessly as the heroine’s family prospered while hers was destroyed. Powerless. Broken. Too late. But fate was not finished with her. A falling flowerpot ended her life— and opened her eyes once more. 1958. She is thirteen years old again. Her parents are alive. Her brothers are alive. Everything has not yet begun. In the turbulent 1960s era, she awakens with memories of her previous life and an unexpected System Space that grants her resources and hidden advantages. This time, she will not be cannon fodder. She will not allow her family to be sacrificed. She will not let the so-called heroine step on their corpses to rise. Amid famine, political storms, and the shifting tides of the era, she quietly builds strength, gathers supplies within her mysterious space, and protects her family step by step. And standing in the shadows of the military compound is a powerful, sharp-eyed man— a future commander whose destiny was never meant to intertwine with hers. In her previous life, he stood at the peak of power. In this life, he watches her change everything. This time— She will become the author of her own fate. PS-: The Story is taking place in the parallel world, so although the historical events are same, characters are fiction.

Anna came to her sister older house only to stay temporarily. Not to fall into the most dangerous kind of beauty she had ever seen. Alaric Devano—husband of Evelyn Seraphina and Lyanna Mirelle’s brother-in-law—was everything forbidden: handsome, cold, immensely wealthy, dominant… and he stared at Anna far too long for a man who was supposed to ignore her. At first, Anna thought it was mere courtesy. But it wasn’t. He noticed every detail about her. How she stood. How she feared. How she tried to keep her distance. And every time they were alone… he forgot that Anna was his sister-in-law. More dangerously? Anna did not resist. She kept coming back—as if something within her called out, demanded, and claimed her. “He’s my sister's husband. I must not fall into his embrace. But obsession always triumphs over reason. And Alaric… never loses.”
