sweetlove

For three years, Autumn Hayes was invisible. The girl in oversized hoodies who ate lunch in the art room. The "charity case" scholarship kid at prestigious Crestwood Academy. The nobody. Then Crew Maverick—golden-haired, devastatingly beautiful, untouchable—asked her to prom. For two perfect months, Autumn believed in fairy tales. She believed someone like him could see someone like her. She gave him her first kiss, her trust, her carefully guarded heart. Until she overheard the truth at prom: "Fifty bucks says I can get the hoodie girl to fall for me by prom night. Easiest money I ever made." The laughter that followed shattered something fundamental inside her. Madison Pierce—Crestwood's queen bee and Crew's ex—had orchestrated the whole thing. A public humiliation designed to remind Autumn exactly where she belonged: beneath them. Autumn ran from that ballroom in a thrift-store dress, mascara running, soul bleeding. She spent the summer after junior year drowning in shame, replaying every moment she'd been stupid enough to believe she mattered. But somewhere between the tears and the rage, Autumn Hayes died. And someone new was born. Three months later, senior year begins. The girl who walks through Crestwood's gates isn't wearing a hoodie. Her previously hidden figure is toned and confident in designer clothes her mysterious "summer job" somehow afforded. Her once-mousy brown hair is now a striking auburn with perfect styling. The glasses are gone, revealing eyes that used to hide behind frames but now meet gazes with unsettling directness. No one recognizes her. Not at first. Crew Maverick does a double-take in the hallway, his practiced charm faltering. Kade Zhang—his best friend and Crestwood's resident bad boy genius—actually drops his coffee. Even Ezra Holloway, the quiet athletic scholarship student who used to nod at Autumn in passing, stares openly. Madison Pierce's perfectly glossed smile cracks when the new girl doesn't shrink from her presence. But here's what none of them understand: Autumn isn't playing their game anymore. She's not here for revenge. She's not here to prove anything. She spent the summer discovering who she is when no one's watching—and she likes that person too much to trade her for their approval. So what if Crew is suddenly desperate to explain, to apologize, to get back what he destroyed? So what if Kade sees her as a puzzle he's determined to solve? So what if Ezra finally finds the courage to say he's noticed her all along? So what if Madison's throne is wobbling now that someone refuses to bow? Autumn Hayes learned the hard way that she was never the problem. They were just too shallow to see her depth. Now they can't look away. But she's already moved on.

The princess consort was calm as still water, the favored concubine longed for monogamy, the reincarnated woman had abandoned all worldly pursuits, and the rest were too timid to stir the waters. She took one look around and thought: What a dreadful lack of ambition. Armed with wit, beauty, and an iron work ethic, she began her rise from obscurity, turning the idle harem into a stage for her talents. The overly energetic Prince, once content with tranquility, soon found his palace ablaze with vitality... all thanks to one industrious woman. Years later, She stood at the pinnacle as the Imperial Noble Consort, adored by the emperor and blessed with children. When the retired emperor asked why she had fought so hard for power, She cracked a melon seed and smiled: “To secure an early retirement, of course. One must work hard to rest well.” (Keep leaving comments, reviews and sprinkling those virtual nutrients, please~)

For three years, Elena Hart played the perfect substitute. She married Adrian Castellano wearing her stepsister's wedding dress, answered to whispered comparisons, and watched her own fashion designs get stolen and branded under someone else's name. She told herself love could bloom even in borrowed soil. She was a fool. The night of the Castellano Empire's biggest merger celebration, Elena found her husband in his office—not working, but tangled with Vivian, her stepsister, the woman Elena had been replacing all along. Her career, her dignity, her three years of devotion—all crushed in one devastating moment. "You were just keeping the seat warm," Vivian purred, wearing the necklace Adrian had given Elena for their anniversary. "He's always loved me. You were just... convenient." Adrian's silence was confirmation enough. Divorce papers in hand, Elena walked away from the Castellano fortune without taking a dime. Her family—the Harts who'd sold her into this sham marriage—disowned her for "ruining" their connection to wealth. She had nothing. She was no one. Or so they thought. The joke was on them. The "old, impotent tycoon" her family forced her to marry after the divorce—the reclusive Vincent Rothwell whom society assumed was a decrepit seventy-year-old invalid—turned out to be a devastatingly handsome thirty-four-year-old mogul who'd been living under false rumors to avoid gold-diggers. Two years later, Elena returns to the world that rejected her as Elise Moreau, the mysterious fashion empire CEO taking Europe by storm, with Vincent Rothwell—very much alive, very much virile, and very much obsessed with his wife—by her side. Adrian Castellano finally realizes the woman he dismissed was never the substitute. She was always the original. And now she's completely, utterly, devastatingly out of his reach.

People they thought dead. Truths that could shatter everything. A destiny she never asked for.

“Unlucky” would be the nice way to describe Lucas’ luck. He wasn’t just down bad. He was practically cursed. As someone who never asked to exist, he’s had to experience medical torture, imprisonment, and eventually death. And that was just his first life. Then, just as he thought of escaping his fate, he transmigrates into the body of the Empire’s most useless Flower Vase. Great, now he should have status, wealth, and beauty, right? Wrong. Because his new body, Young Lord Luca Kyros, was a vegetable. And what’s worse was that no one else seemed to know the truth. To everyone else, he was just your typical rebellious heir. He wouldn’t have minded that. He was used to being called a harlot or similar names for being a defective Guide. But the problem was he woke up right smack in the middle of the Royal Military Academy’s Assessment test. And his double body, the one who should be attending school, perished in an ambush. So now, he’s forced to resolve his existential crisis while attending a school he never even enrolled in. He’ll have to conquer his flimsy body, his brooding roommate, and his picky-eater “dungeon”—all that on top of surviving impending doom. Someone definitely needs a miracle.

“Your hands are stained with the blood of a million innocents. So tell me, my little ghost king, why do you weep so mournfully?” Surely there was nothing that the young, powerful heir of the Jiangnan Temple, Gu Yuze said or did in his tragically short life that would warrant him to transmigrated into the body of the ghost king that he just defeated.

Now he has to live in this body without any information where every step feel like a death trap and every day brings more questions. Who is this Gu Yuze? Who sealed such a young disciple? What kind of karma has he sown? And what made someone as inconsequential as this person to become the most powerful ghost king in ten thousand years. So many questions, so little time. It would not do for him to get distracted by that annoying, frozen-cucumber, handsome, pain-in-his-behind, can-do-no-wrong, Shixiong, Han Ji. It is up to Gu Yuze to decide. Is mere curiosity enough, or would he attempt to change fate?
