Years ago, she walked away, shattering Xu Tao's world without a single goodbye. Now, she's back, but there's a devastating catch: she doesn't remember him. The intense, shared history, the first taste of true love—it's all a blank slate. Xu Tao is no longer the light-hearted boy she left behind. He is the cold, ruthless inheritor of an untouchable dynasty. Power drips from his every move, but the one thing he can't control is his lingering obsession with her. Appearing as a mysterious investor, he could have his vengeance, or he could seize this shocking twist of fate as a cruel, beautiful opportunity. As he draws her into his glittering, dangerous life, Xu Tao sets a perilous game in motion. He will rebuild their connection from the ground up, manipulating her amnesia until she depends on him completely. She may not remember the man she loved, but he will make sure she falls for the monster she had left.

She says it loud enough for everyone to hear: “This is my boyfriend.” Time stumbles. People look. Whispers start. And I… forget how lungs work for a solid five seconds. Lena beams, like she just claimed Mount Everest and put a flag on top. Her flag has freckles, dark hair… and is currently sweating through his T-shirt. “Just so we’re clear,” she adds, smirking like she could melt steel, “he’s taken.” Somewhere down the hall, someone whistles. Someone else mutters, “No way.” And me? I’m just standing there, holding her hand like it’s the only thing keeping me bound to Earth. I’ve never been anyone’s anything before. Now I’m Lena Carter’s boyfriend. And the whole hallway knows it. --- Ash Bennett met Lena Carter when they were five. Two stubborn kids fighting over crayons. Even then, something clicked. As they grew up, friendship turned into something deeper. But love isn’t easy. Distance, family, and fate tear them apart again and again. Years later, Ash is a world-renowned author, haunted by the girl who changed everything... and the story he never wanted to write. Because some love stories don’t end. They just change shape.

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 #reversedroles #slowpaced special thanks to @schreient_rui

The Sovereign’s Treasure The world calls him a devil. He calls him his everything. Mark Mathew is the Sovereign—a man whose name is whispered in shadows and whose power is a steel-tempered grip over the city’s heart. To the underworld, he is the "Grave-Maker," a ruthless master who doesn't just punish his enemies; he erases them. He is a giant among men, cold and untouchable... until he looks at Win. Win is the light the Sovereign never thought he deserved—pure, innocent, and fragile as a newborn lamb. To the rest of the world, Win is a mystery; to Mark, he is the only person capable of bringing a devil to his knees. But shadows are lengthening. Justin, a man fueled by a delusional, white-knuckled obsession, is determined to "save" Win from the Sovereign’s clutches. Convinced that Win is a captive rather than a lover, Justin prepares to expose the horrific blood on Mark’s hands, oblivious to the fact that he is walking straight into the jaws of a predator. As the lines between protection and possession blur, Win must navigate the terrifying reality of Mark’s power. Can a love born in the darkness survive the truth of who the Master really is? Or will the Sovereign’s treasure be shattered by the very world built to protect him?

"Choi Minjae!" Mr. Choi's furious voice thundered through the living room as he glared at his youngest daughter. Minjae stood opposite him, arms folded tightly against her chest, her own glare unwavering. "What?" she scoffed mockingly. "Did I say something wrong? Do you hate me even more now that I know the secret you all swore your lives to keep?" She dropped the thin file she was holding onto the table. "I honestly thought it was a lie at first," she continued, her eyes darting from face to face. "I thought... even if my family hated me, they wouldn't go that far. But it seems I underestimated just how deep that hatred runs." "Minjae-ah…" her mother called tiredly, her voice trembling. "Please… just stop." Tears filled Mrs. Kim's eyes. She was exhausted, worn down by the endless arguments. But Minjae had no intention of stopping. "Grandfather willed the organization to me!," Minjae snapped. "Out of everyone around him, he chose me. Not even his own son." A small, disbelieving smirk curved her lips. "And what did Father do?" she continued coldly. "He hid it from me… then handed it over to my sister. So now I'm the bad guy for asking back what already belongs to me?" "Enough!" Min-Sol finally stepped in. "You know now! We admit it, the organization was willed to you. But was it really then necessary to shut down the construction project that had been going on for over a month now? Do you have any idea how long it took me to secure that deal?!" Her voice cracked, not from rage, but disappointment. She knew her sister would go to extreme lengths to prove a point, but this… this was too much. "I don't care how long it took," Minjae replied coolly. "I guess i just needed to flex my authority a little. Watching everyone follow my orders, even when you're the official chair woman, made me realize something." She laughed bitterly. "That i was the only fool in the dark. Everyone else knew. Everyone, except me. Cast aside by my own family." She turned fully toward Min-Sol. "Maybe I wouldn't have been so surprised if this was Father's doing alone," Minjae said quietly. "But you?" She tilted her head slightly. "Don't you think you're being a little too greedy?" "What…?" Min-Sol breathed. "Of course Father would hand all his assets to you, his one and only favorite daughter," Minjae continued calmly. "But even the single company Grandpa left me… you wanted that too?" Min sol eyes hardened. "Do you realize that company was never meant for our family alone? That in the wrong hands, everything we have could be stripped away." "So I'm the 'wrong hand,' and you're the 'right' one?" Minjae let out a soft, humorless laugh. "I'm supposed to be grateful that you've been warming my seat and running my company on my behalf?" She clapped slowly, mock applause filling the room. "Fine. I'll admit it, you've done a great job, Truly. Now step down. I'll take over from here." "Never!" Mr. Choi roared. "That will never happen! The day you take that company is the day I die!" Minjae took a step forward, her smile widening. "Good," she said calmly. "Then I suggest you hurry. I'm already running out of patience." She added and next thing a slap landed across her cheek. The sound echoed through the mansion, Mrs. Kim's trembling hand hung in the air as silence swallowed the room. A faint gasp could be heard. Min-Sol, who hadn't been slapped, looked more shocked than Minjae herself. She had expected retaliation… but not from her mother. The calmest person in the family. "How dare you say such cruel thing!" Mrs. Kim shouted, pointing angrily at her daughter. Minjae slowly turned her head, touching her cheek. "I'm sorry, Mom," she said with a twisted smile. "Did I say it wrong?" She asked as silence failed the air, Suddenly, she grabbed a flower vase from the table and hurled violently it to the floor as it Crash loudly, the porcelain shattered violently as everyone jolted backward. "Let me rephrase then" Minjae gritted. "I hope

At Harvard Law School, winning isn’t ambition—it’s survival. Aria Whitmore has never lost a debate. Raised by a legendary judge, shaped by impossible expectations, she has built her identity on control, precision, and victory. Harvard knows her as the undefeated queen. Losing is not an option—because without winning, she doesn’t know who she is. Then Lucas Vale arrives. A transfer student from Oxford, calm and unreadable, Lucas doesn’t challenge Aria with volume or ego. He dismantles her with silence, logic, and a smile that never explains itself. One debate is all it takes to shake her crown—and awaken something far more dangerous than rivalry. Forced into late-night preparation sessions, public competitions, and ruthless academic warfare, their rivalry turns intimate. Glances become arguments. Arguments become confessions. And every victory pulls them closer to a line neither of them can afford to cross. Because Lucas has a past he refuses to reveal. Because Aria’s family expects perfection—not vulnerability. And because at Harvard Law, falling in love with your rival can cost everything. Told through diary-style confessions, sharp dialogue, and slow-burn tension, this is a story about power, identity, and the terrifying truth that the strongest arguments are never made out loud. She knows how to win debates. He teaches her how to lose control.

Some people enter your life softly. So softly that you don’t realize when they become your everything. Sara lived a quiet life—simple days, unspoken emotions, and a heart that learned to stay careful. Love was never something she chased. Until one silent boy changed the rhythm of her world without ever trying. Necole carried shadows no one could see. A past he never spoke of. A fate he could never escape. He knew one rule better than anyone—never get attached. Especially not to someone as innocent as her. A single glance was enough to awaken something neither of them was ready for. A connection built in silence. A love shaped by distance. And a truth that could destroy them both. This is not a story about love that comes easily. It is a story about love that waits. That hurts. That heals. And about two souls who found each other— before they even knew each other’s names.

At nineteen, Leah Anderson never imagined that her life would take such a sharp turn—from worrying about school assignments and a lagging iPad to being forced into a marriage arranged by her parents.

But when her parents suddenly replace Layla with her for a blind date meant to repay a powerful family favor, Leah’s quiet world begins to unravel. What starts as a simple blind date quickly turns into something far more binding. Leah meets Magnus Wilson, a cold, disciplined billionaire heir burdened by family expectations and a painful past.

Trapped between obedience and her desire for love, Leah struggles with the reality of a loveless marriage she never chose. Her only comfort comes from her best friend Jessie, whose optimism clashes with Leah’s fear of becoming emotionally imprisoned. Meanwhile, Magnus faces his own battle, pressured by his domineering grandfather to move on from a past love and provide stability for his young son, Jeremiah. As both families push forward with plans for a marriage certificate before even setting a wedding date, Leah and Magnus are forced into close unexpected encounters, and subtle moments that hint at something deeper beneath Magnus’s emotional walls. Unspoken tension begins to grow. Bound by duty rather than affection, Leah and Magnus step into a union neither of them believes in—yet fate has a way of challenging even the strongest resolve. In a marriage built on obligation, can two guarded hearts perhaps discover a love they never planned for?
