Hi! My name is [Redacted], but most people just call me Focaccia Bread — or Foca. I’m writing this mostly for fun, but also to share my stories, my questionable life choices, and the music that somehow came out of them. Come along for the ride as I recount how I accidentally built a successful entertainment company and somehow helped create actual music legends. Fair warning: I do not tell stories in order. My brain jumps timelines like a fever dream, so expect chaos, time skips, and zero apologies. I’m weird. I’m quirky. I embrace it with both arms and half a bagel. I know — I’m cringe. But at least I’m free.

For eight years, Lara Quinn has lived with an unrequited love for her cold, untouchable boss, Marco Blackwell, the powerful CEO of Blackwell International Holdings and heir to an ancient bloodline. He is brilliant, ruthless, and already engaged to his elegant childhood sweetheart. To everyone else, he is untouchable. To Lara, he is the dream she can never have. Lara does not believe in supernatural beings or in the legends that speak of humans bound to creatures born of the moon. Until one night changes everything. During the company's annual team building in the mountains, a violent storm traps them together beneath the Blood Moon. When desire breaks through restraint, Lara gives herself to Marco, unaware that one night of passion will awaken a bond older than time itself. By dawn, she bears his mark, and her life is no longer her own. The following morning, Marco returns to being cold and distant, treating her as if she means nothing after what happened between them. It breaks her heart, though she tries to hide the pain behind quiet smiles and lowered eyes. Back in the city, Marco proposes marriage. For one blissful moment, Lara believes her dream has finally come true until he tells her the truth. Their marriage will be nothing more than a contract, an agreement made to appease his clan and fulfill a prophecy that demands an heir. Once she gives him the child destiny requires, he will end their marriage and reward her with a fortune before marrying the woman he truly loves. Lara refused his proposal and threw the engagement ring at him out of anger, her voice trembling as she told him she would never marry someone like him. Still, she was left with no choice and said yes when life cornered her once again, forcing her to depend on the one man who had broken her heart. Even if it meant swallowing her pride and pretending she felt nothing, she wanted to stay by his side a little longer. It was foolish, she knew, but a part of her still hoped that one day, he might learn to love her too. But when she discovers she is pregnant, her fragile hope turns to fear. Determined to protect her child from the darkness that surrounds Marco's world, Lara runs. Yet Marco Blackwell is not a man who lets go of what is his, and now he will stop at nothing to find his wife. He thought fated mates were only a myth. But under the Blood Moon, one choice bound their souls forever. And now, as danger closes in, she must make an impossible choice: protect her child from the world that hunts them, or protect her heart from Marco Blackwell.

An interstellar insurance adjuster arrives on Earth to negotiate compensation for the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs.

"Hanae, let’s be honest. You’re too plain. You’re boring. Emi is fragile and needs me, but you? You’re sturdy enough to survive on your own." On their wedding day, Kenji didn’t just break Hanae’s heart—he humiliated her in front of all of Neo-Tokyo, leaving her at the altar for her manipulative, "sickly" stepsister. Everyone expected the gentle, soft-spoken Hanae to cry. They expected her to beg. Instead, she sighed. "You’re right, Kenji. I am sturdy." RIIIP. With a single motion, Hanae tore the silk wedding dress from her body, revealing not the soft skin of a housewife, but rock-hard muscles, scars from a thousand battles, and the terrifying dragon tattoo of the "Asura"—the legendary, retired heir of the Kurosawa Yakuza Clan. For six years, Hanae starved herself, wore baggy clothes, and pretended to be weak just to fit Kenji’s ideal of a "delicate wife." Now, the act is over. The Dragon has woken up. Step 1: Beat up the ex-husband’s bodyguards in high heels. Step 2: Sign a contract marriage with Ryuuji, the dangerous "Demon King" of the rival syndicate. Step 3: Remind the entire underworld why they used to fear her name. When Kenji realizes that his "useless" wife was actually the mastermind behind his success—and the only woman capable of protecting him—he comes crawling back on his knees, weeping for forgiveness. Hanae looks down at him, cracking her knuckles with a smile that promises violence. "Forgive you? Sorry, my husband gets jealous when I play with trash."

Last life, I was an anxious second-grader bleeding out under a rotting log, waiting for adults who weren’t coming. This life, I open my eyes in a hospital bed as “Sylvie” – no clan, no papers, just an orphan slot to be filled and a village that shrugs and moves on. Everyone writes me off as another stray… except one loud blond kid with whisker marks who decides I’m his first real friend. By the time Team 7 forms, I’m standing where Sakura should’ve been: the pink-trimmed kunoichi next to Naruto and Sasuke, pretending I belong there. I don’t get monster chakra, a secret bloodline, or a cheat-sheet of canon. What I get is stupidly precise chakra control, ink-stained hands, and this unnerving knack for feeling the “colors” of people’s bonds—love, grief, trauma, all the invisible threads tying them together. As I stumble my way into med-nin training under Tsunade, those threads turn into tools: I can anchor promises, steady someone on the edge of a panic spiral, and—eventually—try to hold a whole battlefield together with seals and stubbornness. The catch is that every mind I stitch back up leaves marks on me, and there’s a thin, ugly line between helping people heal and quietly rearranging them into something more “functional.” From the Land of Waves to the Chunin Exams, all the way to Akatsuki and the Fourth Shinobi War, I run beside Naruto and Sasuke through a world built on child soldiers and inherited pain, trying to nudge the script without breaking it. Somewhere between pranks, triage, and war councils, I get tangled up with a lazy genius named Shikamaru, a snakebit mentor named Anko, and the creeping fear that I’m not just saving people—I’m taking a seat that was never meant to be mine. This is still Naruto’s story about never giving up. It’s also mine: the boy who died in one forest, woke up as a girl in another, stole Sakura’s spot on Team 7, and decided nobody in this world was going to face their nightmares alone if she could help it.

#Transmigration She died choking on instant noodles while hate-reading a trashy palace novel. Next thing she knows, she wakes up as Lady Seo-Hwa, the gorgeous, evil villainess who gets strangled to death in chapter 42 for trying to poison the pure-hearted heroine. Hell no. Armed with full knowledge of the original story, our girl burns the poison, confesses in front of the entire court while wearing funeral white, and somehow ends up standing at the cold emperor’s right hand instead of in a prison cell. Emperor Taehyun was supposed to hate her. He was supposed to love the sweet transmigrated heroine and execute Seo-Hwa without a second thought. Instead he’s obsessed. Someone still wants the villainess dead (assassins in the night, red silk cords, betrayal in every shadow), but every attempt only pulls Taehyun closer. One brush of fingers turns into secret midnight dates outside the palace walls. One protective glare turns into scorching kisses under a full moon. She came here to survive. She never planned to make the most powerful man in the empire fall first… and fall hard. Now the real mastermind behind the murder plots is moving, the heroine is panicking, the Empress Dowager is sharpening her knives, and war is coming to the border. 150 chapters of slow-burn royal romance, bloody palace intrigue, and the most satisfying role-reversal ever: A villainess who refuses to follow the script… and the dragon emperor who will burn the kingdom down before he lets anyone take her from him. Perfect for readers who want: - Enemies-to-lovers (but he falls first and harder) - “I know the plot and I’m breaking it” energy - Possessive emperor + clever queen vibes - Lots of kissing in inappropriate places Get ready to root for the villainess. This time, she wins everything.

My fated mate rejected me under the Blood Moon. I died screaming his name. I woke up in hell—and the Moon Goddess is waiting. The Lunar Veil isn't the afterlife. It's a trial ground for broken wolves, where Luna strips away everything that makes you human until only truth remains. Ten trials. No mercy. Fail, and your soul burns to ash. My guide? Astro—a fallen Alpha with silver scars and secrets older than sin. He's supposed to help me survive. Instead, we're breaking every rule Luna ever made. Each trial I survive makes me stronger. Each touch between us burns hotter. And the red thread linking our fates? It's the one thing the goddess can't control.

[Mature Content R18+] Two days before my wedding, my fiancé told me he would marry my twin sister, because it was her dying wish. My family, his family, everyone dear to me, turned me into a villain for being defiant. The decision was final. The bride had changed. They forced me into a golden cage, waiting for my turn to be another substitute. Then he came. The man who should have been my enemy offered his hand. Led us into one wild night. "Be my wife. Six years. Let's have a contract for exactly that long." "You lost your mind. You promised-" "And I'll give you five years. You can be free. Do whatever you want with the Kingston name. I promised that." "Wh... what?" "But you must promise me, you will be back, and let's live like we burn for each other in that last year." "Rafael... what are you planning to?" "Get things back to their right place." I was tired of being anyone's pawn. So, I play my own game. Five years later, I am back. Revenge is an understatement. The price for my suffering is due. My children keep asking for their father. They'll meet him soon, but there's a problem:  I’m not sure who the real father is. "Viona... I never stop loving you. Tell me they are my flesh, right? I want you back. I want us back." My ex-fiancé shamelessly pleaded before me. "They are mine. The four of them are mine." And there he was, my contracted husband declared with a glare that was ready to burn the whole society down. This should be a simple game of power. But love always meddles between the players. ====== Author's Note: This Novel is a character-driven plot. Every character has their own motivation and is layered. Every choice has no easy way out.

For seventeen years, Samantha Kisaragi wished for only one thing: a normal life, free from the chronic illness that made her a fragile glass doll in her family’s eyes. One morning, her wish is granted by... a tiny, floating mochi with a god complex? This smug spectral "System" offers her a miraculous, perfectly healthy body. The price? She must now complete a series of insane missions, from the mortifying to the life-threatening. The rules are simple: succeed and level up. Get stronger, faster, and maybe even a little more charming. But if she fails, the penalty is a fate worse than any illness: her body will warp into a 'Cursed Physique'—a seven-foot-tall mountain of grotesque muscle powered by the same old fragile constitution. A titan's strength with a body that could collapse from a stiff breeze. Now, this former shut-in is being forced to get buff, all while juggling a top-priority quest to save her perfect older brother from a shadowy, five-star threat hunting him down. And as if that's not enough pressure, the System is also demanding she "Ignite the Flames of Passion" and make someone fall in love with her, pushing her into ridiculously close and awkward situations with her bubbly best friend. With only a cheeky floating dessert for a guide, a terrifyingly competent senior known as the 'Ice Queen' as an unlikely ally, and a clock ticking on both her brother's life and her own romantic prospects, Samantha must learn to be a weapon. She was a girl who just wanted to be normal. Now, she has to become a monster to protect everything she loves.

In countless civilizations of the Primordial World, there is a widely known saying. When each civilization descends upon the Primordial, influenced by the Primordial Law, a few Supreme Treasures containing the Law will be born, which would make the owners the most powerful in the world. Having one Supreme Treasure is the luckiest thing one could imagine, let alone becoming the owner of two or even three Treasures. However. Yang Fan, with the power of dreaming the future reality, does not think so. He states, "It's just Supreme Treasures, can't they be picked up as long as you have hands? I had a few dreams and easily picked up five pieces."
