family

[ADULT CONTENT WARNING: Explicit intimacy and mature relationship themes. 18+ only.] Seven years together. Two years married. To the world, Alexander Montclair is the perfect husband gentle, patient, and calm. A man who never raises his voice and believes love should be quiet and understanding. But behind closed doors, his silence speaks louder than anger. In our marriage, his family comes before everything. His mother’s wishes dictate our lives, while my own needs are expected to wait. Every compromise, every apology, every sacrifice, it’s always me who gives in. The only time I feel chosen is in our intimacy moment, when desire briefly drowns out duty and that's when he listens to me instead of his family’s voice. But sex moments can’t hold a marriage together. This is not a story about cruelty or violence. It’s about emotional neglect, quiet obedience, and the slow ache of realizing that love without choice will eventually break you. After seven years of loving him, I must decide: Remain the husband who is always second or finally choose myself.

“That child is mine. And so are you,” he commanded, his viper-green eyes pinning her in place. Grace couldn’t believe that he—Carlos Benjamin, her new CEO and eight years her junior—was the father of her unborn baby. “You can go back to that deadbeat you call a husband, or you can come with me and have everything.” ===== For the last five years of her marriage, Grace Preston, 32, believed she was broken. She couldn’t have a child, and her deadbeat husband, Charles, never let her forget it, calling her useless while she worked tirelessly to fund his failed acting career. He didn’t just break her spirit; he shattered her trust by cheating on her with her own sister. Heartbroken, Grace fled to her office late one night, seeking solace at the bottom of a bottle. She wasn’t alone. A beautiful, blond-haired man was there, nursing his own wounds. He never told her his name, but he offered her a night of oblivion. Fueled by whiskey and a desperate need for revenge, she gave in to her darkest desires, pulling the willing stranger into her web. In her drunken haze, she thought, “If my husband can have his fun, then so can I.” She never worried about protection, convinced she was barren. Until a month later, when a positive pregnancy test trembled in her hands. Grace Preston, the ‘barren’ wife, was pregnant. In a single night, the stranger gave her what Charles couldn’t in five years. Now Carlos has made his claim, pulling her into a world of immense power and lethal secrets. Will Grace escape her toxic marriage only to be trapped in this captivating young billionaire’s golden cage? Or is trading one prison for another a mistake that will cost her more than just her heart?

After her grandfather's death, Bai Hanyun was disowned by her parents and cast out of the Bai family. With nowhere else to go, she left the city and returned to the countryside. There, by a twist of fate, she discovered an antique mirror hidden in the basement of her newly purchased home. From that moment on, strange events began to unfold—until one day, she stumbled upon a prayer from a young general. Feng Xiyan, besieged by the Yuezhi Tribe and betrayed by the imperial court, had been driven into a desperate corner. With no access to water, food, or medicine, he and the citizens of Xiqiang City could do nothing but await death. But just as all hope seemed lost, Heaven intervened. From that moment on, the Feng Army and the people of Xiqiang City had enough food and water, living lives more prosperous than even the Emperor himself.

Arianne Summers is a legend in the boardroom—and a nightmare to her enemies. She dismantled her cheating father’s career, outmaneuvered every greedy relative, and rose to become the sole heiress of the Summers empire. Her one mistake? Falling in love. Being publicly discarded by her fiancé for another woman wasn’t just a personal humiliation—it triggered a calculated corporate takeover that stripped Arianne of everything she built and left her infamous overnight. Five years later, determined to live quietly and far from the battlefield she once ruled, her carefully rebuilt solitude is shattered by an unexpected knock at the door. On her doorstep stand two sharp-eyed, scheming four-year-old twins holding a handmade sign that reads: “Marry Our Uncle!” Their proposal is… unconventional. “Marry our Uncle Franz!” the girl declares. “We’ll help you destroy your evil ex!” the boy adds, proudly waving a crayon-drawn “business plan.” Their uncle, Franz Rochefort, is a world-famous actor forced into the role of CEO after his brother’s sudden death. Overwhelmed, underestimated, and struggling to keep both his company and the grieving children afloat, Franz is mastering every role except the one he never wanted—corporate leader. The twins, however, have reached a conclusion of their own. Only the infamous Ruthless Queen of the Business World is fierce enough to protect their uncle, stabilize their lives—and maybe even stay. For Arianne, the proposition is tempting. His name and influence could shield her return. Her experience could save his crumbling company. A clean, logical, temporary arrangement. How hard could it be to play the role of a wife and an aunt? Answer: hilariously, heartbreakingly, catastrophically hard. Between boardroom power plays and kindergarten meltdowns, Arianne finds her carefully armored heart softening under sticky fingers and bedtime questions. Franz turns out to be far less incompetent than he appears—and far more dangerous to her resolve. And the twins? They’re running an operation of their own: Operation Make Uncle and New Aunt Fall in Love. But when pretend arrangements begin to feel real and old enemies start closing in, Arianne must decide what matters more—revenge against the past, or protecting the fragile, unexpected family she never planned to have. A ruthless CEO. A reluctant superstar. Two scheming children. And a love story that was never part of the plan. #ceoromance #reversedrole #slowpaced

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.

Northon leaned closer and his hot breath caressed my ear, sending a cold shiver down my spine. "You know this is incredibly arousing, right?" he growled in his hoarse, deep voice. My gaze lingered on the spear-shaped tattoo adorning his neck. "I didn't know," I grinned, running my fingers over the muscles tensing in his arms as he leaned over me. "Of course you knew," he leaned closer, his lips pressing against my neck, sucking on the thin skin. "I also know that you are well aware of what you are doing," he whispered before running his tongue over the spot. In response, I involuntarily dug my nails into his back and pulled his hot body even closer to me.... ♡The eyes of the wolf saw what the human heart did not yet dare to see.♡

[Reincarnated, irritated, and deeply unimpressed] [Even tyrants deserve eight hours of zero drama] [Born again—and it's still my problem] I’ve read enough stories about people getting stuck in my situation — fighting tooth and nail just to survive. Typical tales. And I hate typical. Typical people. Typical situations. Even typical words. So imagine my delight when I woke up as the villainess — a lazy tyrant destined to die for her crimes.

And now I’m out here trying to convince the female lead that she’s head-over-galaxies in love with him. Yeah, sounds totally sane, right? (haha ಥ-ಥ) And author. next time, pick someone else. ............................................................ I hope you have as much fun reading this as I did writing it. HAPPY READING! P.S. I'm a sensitive lil’ shit… so go easy on her. >.
