[Excerpt] "You must be the Director," the five-year-old boy said, looking Bastian St. Yves up and down. "I am," Bastian replied coldly. "And you are late." "And you have dark circles under your eyes," the boy countered. "My mommy says men who frown too much end up lonely. Is that why you live in a big castle all alone?" [Synopsis] Everyone knows that Bastian St. Yves, the cold-hearted movie emperor, has only loved one woman: his late wife, Anaïs. For five years, the world believes he has mourned her, refusing to let another woman into his heart. But Anaïs isn't dead. She is hiding in plain sight as Agent Eve, a ruthless talent manager who has sworn to never let Bastian control her again. When Bastian unknowingly casts his own son, who is a rude, genius five-year-old, as the lead in his new tragedy, he finds himself dangerously drawn to the boy's mysterious mother. She smells like his supposedly dead wife. She trembles when he touches her. And she hates him with a passion he doesn't understand. Bastian is determined to uncover Eve's secret. But Anaïs is determined to protect her lies. Because she knows the truth: if the Tyrant of Cinema finds out the boy is his, he won't just want forgiveness...he’ll declare war for custody.

Enemies To Lovers+ Unfiltered Smut + Billionaire Romance + Strong Female Lead. . . From this: “I’ve slept with every woman in this house. What will it take to get that divorce, Brianna? Do I have to go after your mother next?" To this: “I don’t want anyone if it’s not you, my dear wife.” Brianna thought her nightmare was finally over the night she made her abusive, cheating husband fall to his death. But when he woke up in the hospital, smiling at her with tender eyes and calling her “the most beautiful woman he’s ever met”… she knew something was terribly wrong. This wasn’t the man who humiliated her, mocked her, and destroyed her name. Now, her deadbeat husband has become a possessive, seductive, and obsessed doting stranger—one who claims he’ll cherish her forever. . . [Excerpt] "Wife, your hands are dirty now. Go wash them. I don't want his scent on you." That seemed like a good enough excuse to regain her senses with the timeout. Brianna sighed, already turning to limp, but the grip from the bed suddenly became firmer. She tugged further, but to no avail. Sighing, "Lucian, let go. I need to go to the restroom. I need a moment to... to process this." She tugged her slender wrist again, against his hold, but his fingers were a collar of iron. He didn't even look at the door. His dark, fixated eyes were locked onto the palm Marcus Thorne had just grabbed. Lucian's voice was heavy with the haze of the concussion and a terrifying, sudden possessiveness. "No. I don't want you out of my sight. Someone else might... hold your hands again." "I am going five feet away. I'm not a child, and I'm certainly not a prisoner. Now, let go so I can get this… this man's sweat off my skin." "I'll do it," Lucian muttered. However, before Brianna could ask how, he pulled her hand toward his face. Her eyes widened as she realized his intent. "What are you doing, Lucian? Don't you dare—Don't you dare lick my hand!" Brianna flinched violently, dragging her body backward until she was nearly doubled over the edge of the bed, but he was immovable. His concussed brain had simplified the world: Stranger touched Wife. Stranger's scent must be replaced by mine. "Stay still, wife. It'll be quick." "What kind of animal are you—! Lucian, stop! This is unhygienic! It's… it's psychotic!" Brianna turned desperately towards the corner where Marcus Thorne was still standing paralyzed by the sight! "Marcus! Well, don't just stand there! Do something! Help me!" Meanwhile, Marcus Thorne looked like he wanted to jump out of the window! He was watching the President of Better Health, the most powerful man in the city, bring his wife's hand to his mouth with the raw intent of a wolf. Marcus stammered, his hands shaking as he took a frantic step toward the door. "I-I think I'll just... I'll leave the couple to their... their private recovery. Yes. Intimate recovery." "Marcus! Get back here!" Brianna cried out with wide eyes of disbelief. But Marcus refused to look back. He gestured vaguely with a trembling hand, looking as though he'd just witnessed a ritual he wasn't meant to survive, and ran into the hallway. The door clicked shut with a finality that sounded like a prison cell locking. Brianna stared at the wooden door, her mouth agape. "You coward! You—" "Wife, I told you. Stay still." ... From deadbeat to doting, her husband has changed overnight. But if he isn’t the man she married, then something is wrong with her husband!

TRIGGER WARNING: This story contains dark themes, emotional and physical abuse, trauma, betrayal, humiliation, and mature content. However, it also delivers humor, sharp sarcasm, a doting (and dangerous) mate, and chaotic chemistry between the leads. ★★ Synopsis ★★ They called her wolf-less. A disgrace. A curse. The girl blamed for her brother’s death. The unwanted twin. The shame her pack never stopped punishing. For seventeen years, Isabella endured cruelty from everyone who should have protected her—her Alpha, her pack, even her own blood. Beaten down. Enslaved. Ignored. Yet she never broke. Until the night her first heat dragged her into a forest she was never meant to enter. That night, she met Lucain. A king who had been sleeping for centuries. Cold. Ruthless. Starved. A ruler who rejected fate, bonds, and the Moon Goddess herself. He took her blood to survive. He meant to kill her afterward. Instead, he marked her. A bond never meant to exist. A mate never meant to live. A king never meant to awaken. The mark ignites a secret no one was meant to uncover—one that places Isabella at the center of power, prophecy, and bloodshed. Now the packs want her dead. The Elders want to use her. And enemies far older than wolves are watching. Lucain has spent his existence proving he cannot be owned. No bond. No mate.No weakness. Isabella has spent her life learning how to survive. Forced together by fate and hunted by the world, they face an impossible choice. Bow to destiny and submit to the bond… Or burn down everything that ever tried to control them. Because when fate tightens its grip, the real question isn’t whether the bond can be rejected... It’s what happens when the girl everyone broke becomes the one thing a king cannot afford to lose. •♪♪• Hi, my name is Isabella. Follow me through a journey of survival, self-discovery, vengeance… and a dangerously unexpected love. #StrongFL #EnemiesToLovers #FatedMate #PowerCouple #fromHatefulToDotingHusband #DarkRomance #SlowBurnChaos

(Vol. 1 completed. Vol. 2 in continuation...) Short Synopsis: A politician from Earth gets transmigrated into a semi-familiar cultivation world, where typical Xianxia protagonists are cooking trouble in every corner of the street! Guided by a unique system, he begins to amass a legion of such children of destiny, manipulating each of them into becoming his fan and a partner-in-crime. What to expect: 1. Extremely overpowered enemies who actually have a brain. 2. Side Characters who make impact on the story 3. MC schemes more than he fights, and he ALWAYS fights dirty. 4. There are tons of scheming by side characters that even the MC can't easily deconstruct. 5. MC's cultivation method is fucked up beyond anything you've read on Webnovel. It grows wilder with each arc. So don't expect typical power-ups and revenge subplots. 6. Dry, lowbrow comedy is common across all of my writings. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I can't help it.

Twenty-four years of loyalty ended in a single heartbeat. At thirty-six, Jerkins was a successful doctor who believed in the sanctity of life. That belief died when he found his fiancée in the arms of another man. The shock of the betrayal triggered a fatal heart attack, but instead of the void, he found Hypoxia. ​Hypoxia is a dark fantasy world on the brink of collapse. For a decade, the human kingdoms have been systematically dismantled by demons and the criminals who serve them. Jerkins has been summoned as their final hope, but he did not bring his medical ethics with him. ​He is armed with two broken abilities: the Cosmic Radar and the Consciousness Vacuum. The Radar allows him to track every biological heat signature in the world, ensuring no villainess can hide from his reach. The Vacuum allows him to inhale the "self" of any target just by looking at them. When he removes his glasses, his eyes turn a blinding white, and his enemies lose everything that makes them human. ​Every use of his power costs 40% of his energy. To survive and grow stronger, Jerkins must follow a brutal cycle. He targets high-level villainesses, erases their consciousness, and gaslights them into believing he is their only source of love and protection. He recharges his reserves by dominating their bodies, using the biological friction to fuel his next hunt. ​For the men, there is only torture and the false promise of memory restoration. For the demons, there is the flaying knife and the loom. Jerkins is not here to be a savior. He is here to build a dominion on the foundation of stolen lives. ​[R18] [System] [Revenge] [Villain MC]

I died in the wrong forest…and woke up in Konoha, in the body of a girl. I was an anxious second-grader bleeding out in the woods. In this one I open my eyes in a hospital bed, as “Sylvie” – an orphan with no clan, no past, and a body that feels strangely more right than what I left behind.

But as a single mother, the life she built was fragile until the man from her past discovered the truth. Now he wants her and his son. But how can Evelyn trust the father of her child... when he's also the enemy of the man who raised her? **** Excerpt: "B-Boss... the woman you slept with that night... she wasn't the supermodel the company just signed," Dylan stammered, his voice trembling. Axel's brow furrowed even further. He tried digging through the hazy, alcohol-soaked memories of that night.  Of course, he remembered the party. He remembered the whiskey. But the woman? Nope. His brain served up a blank slate. "Who was she?" Dylan swallowed. "The first daughter of William Walters." "Cough! Cough!" Axel coughed violently, his face turning red and eyes wide with shock. He never thought that woman would end up in his bed.  --- Curiosity won, as always. Evelyn grabbed the remote and hit the power button. The screen lit up, and her jaw dropped. Her eyes went wide, as if the Grim Reaper himself had just stepped out of the TV to ask for her phone number. “What the…? Why does my personal source of misery pop up the second I turn this thing on?” Because there he was, Axel Knight, gliding out of his luxury car like some corporate deity on his way to a business banquet. Evelyn scrambled for the remote to turn it off, but of course, fate had other plans. Axel turned to the camera and gave a casual wave, acknowledging the paparazzi vultures lined up outside. She hated to admit it, but the man looked sinfully good in his signature black suit and high turtleneck, his sleek black hair framing a face that could stop traffic and quite possibly her breathing. Then, suddenly, her stomach clenched. Her hand instinctively rubbed her flat belly. “Little tenant, did you just say you recognize him?”
