Arianne Summers was once the most feared woman in the business world—until love became her fatal mistake. Publicly betrayed by her fiancé, her empire stolen in a calculated corporate takeover, Arianne vanished from the spotlight, determined never to return. Five years later, her quiet life is interrupted by an unexpected knock. On her doorstep stand two scheming four-year-old twins holding a handmade sign: “Marry Our Uncle!” Their uncle, Franz Rochefort, is a world-famous actor reluctantly thrust into the role of CEO after his brother’s death. Overwhelmed, underestimated, and struggling to keep both his company and his family together, Franz needs help—even if he doesn’t know it yet. What begins as a logical, temporary arrangement quickly spirals into chaos as fake dates turn real, old enemies resurface, and two tiny matchmakers launch Operation: Make Uncle and New Aunt Fall in Love. In a world where power is currency and love is a liability, Arianne must choose—revenge against the past, or the 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 #loveaftermarriage special thanks to @schreient_rui

Kyle has spent years learning how to be invisible. It’s easier that way — no expectations, no mistakes, no one looking too closely. And it worked. Until Darren walks in. He doesn’t force his way in or try to fix anything. He doesn’t ask Kyle to change. He just… stays — close enough to be felt, not close enough to be understood. And somehow, that’s worse. Because Kyle starts to notice things he was never supposed to notice: the silence shifting, the space between them narrowing, himself — responding. This isn’t a story about love at first sight. It’s about attention, about safety that doesn’t feel conditional — and what happens when someone becomes a place you don’t want to leave.

After a simple extraction mission, Kenneth makes a dire mistake that wipes out his entire team. Left alone and bleeding out, Kenneth has no choice but to pray to a higher being in hopes of getting a second chance at life. Luckily for him, his prayers are answered as he finds himself in the body of a man who has the same name as him! Now, faced with a strange world he is unfamiliar with, all he can do is follow the previous owners' wishes to enter the infamous military academy Toleran and become a renowned Anchor. The problem is finding a Striker to pair with. In comes Lucien Saint-James, the captain of the third division and a high-class Striker with whom he has the highest compatibility. The problem is, whenever Lucien is around, he gets this uncontrollable urge to bring him to his knees, not to mention that he doesn’t care for his arrogant attitude either. Now, Kenneth faces a dilemma. If he ever hopes to make it out of this academy alive and realize the dreams of the original Kenneth, he will have to suck up his pride and learn to hide his urges if he wants to make it out in one piece. Oh, and did he mention he had to deal with monsters and mystical beasts too?! ****************************************** Excerpt: “Kiss me.” Kenneth blinked. “What—“ “You heard me. Do it. Now.” Anger flashed in his eyes yet his body moved before his brain could tell him to stop. He reached for the Striker and their lips met. Kenneth poured his energy into Lucien, filling the barren pit inside his mind, giving him enough juice to keep going. The two pulled away, and Lucien’s steely eyes met his, holding him in place. “You always look like you hate anchoring me, but then you get that blissful look on your face that screams ‘I want more’. It’s cute.” Kenneth felt an unbearable urge to slap the smug smile off his face. But since now wasn’t the time to commit acts of violence against his pair. He held himself back. He would deal with him properly later. “Eat shit, captain.” Was all he said before sending him off. ****** A guideverse story with a little twist, hot and cold romance with a whole lot of slow burn (emphasis on burn because the MC refuses to admit his feelings, the stubborn fool). TW: Trauma, survival’s guilt, and violence

Andrea Paisley has carried scars long before anyone could see them. From the age of six, school was never a safe place. Classmates mocked her, calling her ugly, a monkey, and worse. A strict teacher seemed to hate her for reasons she never understood, turning every school day into something she had to survive rather than live. Years of bullying slowly carved deep wounds into Andrea’s heart, leaving her angry, guarded, and struggling with her mental health. But through the chaos of elementary school, there was one person she could never fully hate. Matthew Neyman. They argued, spread rumors about each other, and clashed constantly—but sometimes, in rare quiet moments, they helped each other. Matthew became Andrea’s first crush, even if their relationship was built more on conflict than kindness. By the time school ended, Andrea tried to bury those feelings and forget him completely… even though part of her never really could. High school is supposed to be a fresh start. Instead, Andrea finds herself facing new battles. Samuel Daňko, her sharp-tongued classmate, seems to hate everything about her—calling her aggressive, cringe, and impossible to deal with. Yet the more they clash, the more complicated their relationship becomes. Then there’s Tom Čonka, the quiet boy she secretly finds attractive. He barely speaks to her, always distant, always out of reach. And the worst part? Matthew, Samuel, and Tom all already have girlfriends. Matthew is dating Vanessa Příhodová, a girl who seems to have everything Andrea never did—beauty, confidence, and love. Andrea begins to believe she’s cursed. Every time she meets someone new at a party in the city and lets herself hope for a moment, the next day reality crushes her again. Love always seems to belong to someone else. But as old memories resurface and new conflicts ignite, Andrea must face the truth about her past, her scars, and the fragile hope that maybe—just maybe—someone out there could still see her heart beneath the pain. Because sometimes the deepest scars are the ones that lead you to the person who understands them.

For centuries, the kingdoms feared the night the moon would begin to die—its light fading until only a thin, trembling glow remained. Under that dying moon, a curse was said to awaken: a power capable of destroying kingdoms… or saving them. I never wanted to be part of that prophecy. I never wanted power, destiny, or bloodshed. But the night I crossed paths with the creature hidden behind the curse—eyes sharp as the night itself, presence colder than shadows—I felt my world shift. He wasn’t the monster the legends promised. He was something far more dangerous. Bound by a secret that could shatter everything, I am forced to walk the thin line between fear and fate, hunted by those who want the curse destroyed… and those who want it unleashed. Now, under the veil of the dying moon, I must decide whether to run from my destiny— or embrace the darkness that has been waiting for me all along.

Suho has always lived between two worlds. One shaped by legacy, pride, and expectations he never chose, and another shaped by a heart that feels too deeply for the life he is meant to lead. He is cold, silent, charming, and smart when it comes to business. But he is gentle by nature, emotionally deep, and quietly devoted when it comes to his love. But love was never allowed to be part of his carefully arranged world. It was always meant to be negotiated, controlled, and contained. At this point in his life, Yerin is his everything. His first love, his only love. He is willing to go to any length to keep her, even when his family repeatedly refuses to accept her. Torn between a heart that refuses to let go and a lineage that demands an heir to carry the Kim legacy, Suho takes a decisive step, trying to hold on to Yerin without disappointing the family that expects obedience and continuity from him. Then Hauen enters his life. Not through affection, but through a contract. Chosen not as a partner, but as a solution, Hauen becomes his wife in a marriage built for convenience. An agreement meant to secure an heir and protect the Kim family’s legacy. In return, Hauen enters this marriage to save her father’s bankrupt business. She is warm and gentle, yet guarded. Strong in quiet ways, carrying her own unspoken burdens. To the world, their marriage looks flawless. Polite smiles, perfect appearances, a union without cracks. To them, it is nothing more than a carefully written business contract, set to end after eighteen months. But life has little patience for plans built without truth. In the midst of calculated decisions and emotional restraint, fate pushes Suho into the lowest point of his life, breaking him in ways he never expected. Stripped of control, certainty, and pride, he is forced to confront the parts of himself he has never imagined. At his most fragile moment, the question is no longer about legacy or contracts. It's about Who will stay when everything collapses? Who will stand beside him when life is hard for him? And when life offers both unbearable loss and unexpected grace, will Suho have the courage to accept them? This is a story of love that begins as an obligation, fractures under destiny's test, and slowly transforms into something honest, real, and beautiful.

No longer a high schooler, Hotaru, now 25, thrived as a chief project manager in a prominent company in her hometown. To outsiders, her life seemed perfect—a loving boyfriend, a childhood friend from middle school, with whom she shared an apartment, a fulfilling job with a handsome salary, and a supportive family. Everything appeared tailored to please the public eye, including her own. Yet, beneath this facade, Hotaru felt a subtle unrest in her heart.

Waking up crushed under a man, I nearly screamed—until I saw who it was. Adrian. My cold, obsessive husband. The man I spent a lifetime escaping from. In my past life, I trusted the wrong people. Betrayed the only man who ever protected me and died alone. One life ruined me. This one? I’ll ruin everyone who tries again. Now, the game is mine and I write the rules. I'll act sweet. Stay mysterious. And pit every snake against each other. And as for my dangerously obsessed husband? I will tame—wait... WAIT! I was just being a little gentle, why is this tyrant acting like a delicate princess? 'Hey, hey, stop clinging to me! What? You want cuddles? Head pats? You—You are not a cat, Adrian!' … “He’s deathly allergic to strawberries? But he devoured one from my hand like it’s a miracle elixir.” “He has sleeping disorders? But he hugged me and passed out like a lazy cat!” “He’s sulking… because I didn’t hold his hand?” When he saw me hugging my female best friend? He lost his mind. Yanked me into his arms and growled, “Mine,” like a deranged villain in love. I finally understood: no one else ever stood a chance. I was his only obsession.

In the frozen kingdom of Velmora, witches are not born—they are hunted. And none are feared more than the ones who don’t burn. When a quiet village girl named Echo is dragged to the pyre and sentenced to die, the kingdom expects another screaming witch to vanish into flame. Instead… she smiles. And disappears. She should not have survived. Her escape should not exist. But it does—and it sets into motion a chain of events that begins to unravel the truth behind Velmora’s throne, its blood-soaked history, and the lies the royal family has buried for generations. Because Echo is not just a witch. She is something older. Something tied to a forgotten bloodline that once ruled the kingdom before it was stolen. And her power does not burn. It remembers. ⸻ Crown Prince Kaelor Valcrest was born to be an executioner. In a kingdom ruled by iron laws and ancient blood-debts, he is the ultimate weapon—a man destined to awaken a dormant power only when he kills the last of the fire-vessels. He was born to inherit the throne. He was born to end her. He never expected the witch to have a butterfly smile. Or to look at him from the flames like she knew him. When the fire dies, the stake is empty. The girl who was meant to become ash becomes something else entirely—something impossible to contain. Now Kaelor hunts her through a collapsing empire, driven by an obsession he cannot name and a pull that defies duty, bloodline, and reason. But he is not the only prince drawn into her wake. His brother, Prince Cassian Valcrest, returns from exile through snow and blood, refusing duty in favor of survival—and obsession. In the frozen mountain passes, he is saved by a mysterious girl with silver eyes who burns monsters with a single touch. He does not yet know she is the same girl his brother is sworn to destroy. Or that she will become the fracture line between them. ⸻ As ancient darkness stirs beneath Velmora and creatures not of this world begin to crawl from the mountains, Echo must decide whether she is the monster they hunted… or the queen they forgot. Because the fire did not destroy her. It only woke her up. Two brothers. One witch. A kingdom built on lies—and a destiny written in blood and embers.

A child tying her fate back to him. And just when her heart begins to drift toward someone safe, another woman appears — threatening to take Harley away for good.

In Oakhaven, a single crack in your glass means the end of your life. Every citizen carries their soul in their hands, a small flame left in a lantern that beats with the rhythm of their heart. Eira’s light burns with a soft, lemon-yellow glow, marking her as someone safe and perfectly obedient to the village's expectations. Beyond the village borders, the Great River thrashes against jagged stones, a violent torrent that remains liquid even in the deepest frost. The locals view the water as a place where there is no light, a place where the lightless are forgotten. Eira finds herself drawn to the spray and the roar, convinced the current holds the truth about why her father's flame was snuffed out. The village fears the river, but they loathe Soren even more. He moves through the streets like a shadow, his presence chilling the air around him. The elders claim his fire turned black from an evil heart, warning others away from him. While the other children display lanterns of vibrant scarlet and gold, Soren’s glass holds a dark, violet light that shivers with every step. Eira watches the strange, cold glow and sees a different story. His fire struggles to burn because the world has spent years trying to kill it, leaving him to guard the embers of a past that Oakhaven would rather bury.
