Shee Bah found herself wrangling with another woman over a man that she has been married to for a period of two years. What's more, her husband turned out to be a superstar, with great public appeal _ usually commanding a high salary, who never wanted his relationship to be revealed due to the scandal it might cause. As an underdog, still struggling to make it to greater heights of her music career with her sensational talent, she's extremely insecure about the lady her husband is secretly seeing _ a famous model with strong public influence. By the time she exhaustedly concluded that she wasn't at any standard of a match to the other woman in beauty and reputation, her one week released music album shocks the media waves, topping the chats, becoming the most selling album at the time, making her the most influential female artist.

Stop," he said huskily. "Turn around." Something in his voice made her obey. His was a voice used to commanding, used to getting him his own way. Usually she hated being spoken to that way, but not tonight. Tonight she wanted to obey every command he gave to bring the evening to its logical, inevitable and very satisfying conclusion. She turned, slowly, giving him full view of her butt and the cotton thong slicing her cheeks in half. Aware of his black eyes on her, she did something she'd never done for any man. She swayed to a rhythm in her head. With her back facing him, Abbey ran her hands down her waist, round her gyrating hips and placed one on each cheek. She let them explore across her skin, enjoying the way she felt and knowing he wanted to do the same. She glanced over her shoulder, cheekily giving him a view of her breasts and behind at the same time. His face was distorted with desire as he stood, mesmerized. She turned to face him fully. "I want you," he whispered. ………………………………………………. A cheating husband. A hidden camera. A desperate woman in too little clothing. Abbey thinks she’s prepared to seduce Damien Vane for a paycheck—until his hands, his voice, and his body turn the assignment into something wickedly irresistible. One night was supposed to fix her life… not set it on fire.

“Mommy!! Daddy’s new mate said she’s having a baby. Does that mean he won’t want us anymore?” little Colin cried, clinging to my legs. “Mommy! That rude lady said Daddy doesn’t love us.” my twin Amy whispered, her lips trembling. I looked up from my sobbing children at my Alpha King mate, who had come chasing after them once his so-called mate had hurt them. "She’s pregnant? You told me she was just a fling," I choked. "You and the kids will never lack luxury or comfort," he uttered, refusing to meet my gaze. So that was his excuse? That was his answer to cheating? “You’ve already lost me. Now you’ve lost your children too. We’ll live better without you, and one day you’ll regret losing us.” The moment I said it, his eyes finally met mine, they were wet too. "Alpha King Kash, I reject you!" I hissed. .. Iris thought she had the perfect mate until she caught her Alpha husband cheating. Heartbroken and pregnant, she ran away, hiding in the woods with her unborn pups. Years later, Iris returned to the werewolf world, not as a weak Luna, but as a mother and a woman determined to take her place. But her Alpha had already married his mistress. When he discovered that Iris had left with his children, rage and regret consumed him. Now torn between betrayal and love, Iris faced a choice: protect her babies and destroy the mate who broke her, or risk giving him a second chance.

Kang Hye-rin thought she’d buried her past — especially the memory of Lee Joon-hyuk, the boy who once humiliated her in front of their entire school. But fate has a cruel sense of humor. Years later, he’s her boss — colder, sharper, and infuriatingly handsome in a suit that probably costs more than her rent. And just when she’s finally learned how to avoid him, he makes an offer that flips her world upside down. A contract marriage. ₩150 million now, ₩200 million after one year. No emotions. No strings. Just business. For Joon-hyuk, it’s the perfect way to protect his company and calm the board’s demands for a “stable” image. For Hye-rin, it’s the only way to save her family’s restaurant and pay off the debt her father took after her brother’s accident. But living under the same roof with a man she once hated — a man whose slightest glance still makes her heart stutter — turns out to be harder than she ever imagined. Every argument sparks, every silence hums, and every accidental touch blurs the line between pretending and feeling. He’s arrogant, jealous, and dangerously charming. She’s stubborn, proud, and one heartbeat away from falling again. And somewhere between the lies, laughter, and late-night standoffs… their fake marriage starts to feel a little too real. Because sometimes, love doesn’t knock — it barges back in wearing a perfect suit and an infuriating smirk. Contemporary romance, Ceo, enemies-to-lovers, Korean setting, handsome male lead, strong female lead, slow burn, love triangle.

One moment, I was reading my favorite novel. The next, I was dead. When I opened my eyes, I wasn’t in heaven—or hell. I was lying in an endless snowfield, barefoot, freezing, and… with crimson hair and pointed ears. Great. I’ve been reborn. In a world where even the snow wants me dead. I thought my biggest problem would be survival. I was wrong. Talking bears? Monsters in the shadows? A power I don’t understand, and an unknown force watching me from the dark? This isn’t just another Isekai. This world doesn’t forgive weakness. And if I want to live… I’ll need to become something far stronger than human. Because here, luck means nothing.

They are Aiden and Bima, two inseparable rivals. Since high school, they have competed for everything: the position of student council president, prestigious scholarships, and even the heart of Clara, the same woman. Their rivalry continued into college, world-class soccer careers, and the pinnacle of the business world. At first, the rivalry was healthy. However, the hard-won victories of one always felt like bitter defeats for the other. Gradually, the seeds of their friendship eroded, replaced by doubt and suspicion. What was once ambition turned into blind obsession. What was once fair play turned into dirty tricks: sabotage, rumors, and underhanded attacks. Until one day, a major incident—a decisive defeat or an unforgivable betrayal—pushes them over the edge. This novel is a journey into the souls of two people who were once friends, now bitter enemies, obsessed with destroying each other, unaware that in the process, they are also destroying themselves.

And destroy any mortal bold—or stupid—enough to chase godhood for themselves. But divinity corrupts everything it touches. And as the Imp tears through saints, angels, rebels, tyrants, and psychopaths wearing crowns of faith, it begins to wonder: Is this rebellion… or just another form of insanity clothed as justice? In a world where heaven has already fallen, only monsters are left fighting over the corpse.

Year 19,001 since Founding. Russell Auburn, the youngest mage in history to be granted the nobility rank of Baron from a commoner status thanks to his numerous contributions to the kingdom, exited the royal palace after having been awarded the unprecedented title of “Greatest Detective of All Time” by the reigning monarch himself. Journalists swarmed him outside the palace gates and questioned one after another, “Esteemed Baron, there are rumors in the royal capital that only by relying on your wife's background did you reach your current heights! What's your opinion about this?” “At the recently concluded sensational case of ‘Frost Willow Conspiracy’ we received some dubious tipoff that you exposed their treachery only because the price they offered couldn't satisfy your appetite? Please give your comments to expel such negative rumors.” “During The Massacre of Little Clover Township, the tragic incident over a hundred years ago, an unconfirmed source says that you could have saved more people but deliberately didn't do so for personal motives! Is there any truth to this or could you perhaps have had some unknown difficulties at that time?” “Esteemed Baron…” Hearing their nonstop smearing campaign Russell felt his blood pressure soar! If not for the fact that all of these journalists had backers in the royal court then he would have shown them the consequences for questioning an aristocrat so blatantly. He kept a calm expression as he replied, “Everyone! Those are all nothing but rumors spread by jealous people! I hope that journalist friends would uphold their professional values and not endorse the words of rumormongers.” Russell summoned his Pegasus with a wave of his hand while adding arrogantly, “As for me relying on my wife's background? That's a foolish joke! She proposed marriage first not only because of our deep love but also because I was very talented in my profession. She had the foresight to see my potential way back in my humble beginnings. That's all!” He gracefully sat on top of the Pegasus, riding away in style but not before forcefully saying his famous line, “I have reached my current position only by relying on talent, loyalty, and righteousness!” ••• for inquiry: @lateautumndays1 (on instagram)

The night sky shimmered with countless stars, streaked by falling lights, all under the watch of a radiant red moon.The wind was cool and gentle. A sky like this was a rare sight; one that hadn't appeared in a million years. There was complete silence. A large castle, red and white in color, was surrounded by a beautiful garden filled with many kinds of flowers. Some were tall and beautiful, while others were short and gorgeous. "The breeze rustled the flowers, scattering petals like confetti while carrying their fragrance across the garden. Inside the castle, in a large bedroom, maids were gathered around a red bed. They had worried looks on their faces, and some were rushing out of the room. A woman was in extreme pain as she gave birth. The maids were assisting her. The woman was the Queen Of Angels Seraphina Valentine, giving birth to her third child. She was trying to endure the pain, which was so intense it felt like she was about to die. Though she had given birth twice before, nothing compared to this pain so sharp it felt as if it would tear her apart. Lilith, the head maid, held her hand. "Hold on, my Queen," she said, her voice filled with concern. Seraphina's scream tore through the chamber before it died into ragged breaths. Her body trembled, sweat clinging to her skin as her fists crushed the bedsheets in desperation. Then, a baby's cry rang out.

The war between vampires and werewolves was here Emma from the wolf's side and Deven from the vampire's side. Will they work together to end this war or will they be torn apart by it...

The universe hated me so much, it tossed me around, then dumped me straight into the arms of my father’s killer. — I thought I understood monsters. I grew up with them. I survived them. I swore I would kill the one who murdered my father and brothers. But when I finally found him, I failed. Dante Corsetti. Alpha. Mafia boss. The man who destroyed my family and dragged me into his house like a living trophy. He broke me apart until I didn’t know where my rage ended and his cruelty began. He said I was nothing. A prisoner. A reminder of everything he’d lost. A punishment for sins I never committed. Yet the longer I stayed, the more the world I thought I knew cracked open. The secrets about my bloodline, lies my father died with and a supernatural truth I should never have discovered. And in the middle of it all, a mate bond tied me to the monster I hated most. The goddess must be laughing because Dante is not the only one drawn to me. There were two others. Knox, who looked at me like I was the first good thing the goddess ever gave him. Reed, who claimed I was destined for him no matter who he had to fight. Three alphas. One impossible bond. And me, trapped between revenge, desire, and a fate dark enough to break every one of us. WARNING: 18+ very dark romance

Have you ever read a novel with such a terrible ending that you wished you could change the story and give the characters you loved the happy ending they deserved? ~~~ I was just another failure of an author, writing stories nobody read, and that never sold. Seeking to improve my writing, I read the most popular novel at that time, Solo Player, to learn what made it so popular. However, as I read this story, I couldn’t help but feel frustrated about the story’s development, which had a terrible ending. Eventually, and quite bitterly, once I ended reading the book, I found myself transmigrated into the very world of this novel. Did I become the Protagonist? A Villain? Or perhaps even an Extra? No, it was much worse than I imagined. Because I ended up becoming the most worthless character that nobody ever cared about in the novel. A character that is often considered the motivation for the protagonist to grow stronger, but also his greatest burden. Someone every reader hated! “I’m the protagonist’s sister…” However, with my knowledge of this novel's events, my worthlessness was about to change. I’ve decided to not only become the strongest but also change the story’s terrible ending! “I won’t let you go inside a Dungeon, it’s too dangerous.” ...As long as I can get this incredibly corny and overprotective brother out of my way! And for some reason, the Constellations won’t stop bothering me. Ding!
