Meng Qianqian, at the age of 15, married into the Lu Family to bring joy to the elderly matriarch. On the wedding night, urgent news arrived from the border that her husband had been commanded to go to war. Six months later, he tragically died at the hands of Beiliang soldiers. Five years later, the husband who had been presumed dead returned, and by his side was an ethereal mute woman named Wan'er. Lu Lingxiao said that Wan'er was the descendant of a loyal and righteous family, entirely different from her—a merchant girl reeking of copper coins. He claimed Wan'er was a true paragon of noble character. Lu Lingxiao also said that Wan'er was an eagle soaring in the heavens, while someone like her was nothing more than a fragile flower, unworthy of comparison. It was not until the land was broken, the city walls fell, and she wielded a Red Tassel Spear to crush countless soldiers that Lu Lingxiao realized he had misjudged her. She was not a delicate flower confined within the depths of the mansion; she was the fiercest west wind of Yumen Pass.

Accidentally traversing to the interstellar era three thousand years later, she was thrilled to discover she possessed a rare S-level psychic power, inherently cut out to be a fleet commander. She would attend the military academy, join the Marine College, command a cosmic fleet, and become a gallant female general. ** However, her new identity was just the daughter of a remote star system's farm owner. To achieve her dream, she aimed to marry into the family of the empire's youngest space fleet commander. Commander His Excellency was cold and abstinent, with an imposing presence, yet devastatingly handsome enough to break hearts. Lin Fu fell for him at first sight. She wanted to have him, and even more, she wanted to stash him away secretly. ** Later on, the whole interstellar space finally learned that the always ridiculed incompetent bumpkin was actually the commander of the Empire's Third Fleet. She was also the former most noble and adorable Princess Freya of the royal family, as well as the fearsome star thief that made people tremble. The entire interstellar was boiling with excitement. The handsome and noble commander His Excellency was not happy: What happened to the promise of stashing me away privately?

Elliott Lancaster, descendant of the sun and the gentle Emperor of the Vellurian empire, has spent his life avoiding war- and his father's attempts to force him into a political marriage.

As rival empire schemes and the nobility whispers about their unnatural bond, Elliott faces an impossible choice: maintain his morals and risk losing Aiden or embrace the ruthless love of the man who would burn the world to protect him.

༺❘✦ Ryo moderates online drama. Llewellyn is the drama. The System decides online arguments count as combat experience — and sends Ryo into battle as his partner. ✦❘༻ ━━━✦❘༻༺❘✦━━━ Ryo thought moderating online drama was the worst part of his job. After years of night shifts, caffeine, and defending the Internet’s most polarizing figure — Llewellyn, the world’s most famous hero, the System’s golden boy, and the only person alive with Transcendent-level Elemental Mastery — Ryo figured he’d seen it all. Conspiracy theories? Fan petitions? Cult-like followers? All in a night’s work. Until the System decides that arguing online at 2 AM now counts as combat experience. Turns out Ryo’s unwavering defense and obsessive threat tracking apparently make him the ideal partner for Llewellyn himself… so the System sends him straight into battle! His role? Magical crisis management, wrangling unstable Elemental forces, and helping tackle whatever Magic is currently warping reality — all while keeping the world’s most powerful hero alive. Easy, right? Except that now he’s neck-deep in Dungeons and Distorted Realms — and just a little too fixated on Llewellyn’s mastery in battle. And everything else. It would be fine if the System’s matchmaking algorithms didn’t keep pushing them closer. ━━━✦❘༻༺❘✦━━━ What you’ll find here: System | Magic | BL | Magical Apocalypse Character-driven | Feral Partnership | Emotionally repressed chaos (Slow Burn-ish + Mutual Attraction) | Banter | Combat | System mechanics | Elemental Magic | VR Games | The apocalypse is already happening, and the internet is not handling it well. What you won’t find: Instant power-ups | Anyone trying to become the strongest | Love triangles | Harem anything | Sappy anyone | A protagonist who’s ever had a normal sleep schedule. Content Note: Current chapters are non-explicit — but the rating will go up as the story progresses. (I’ll update the warnings as needed.) Expect mutual attraction, sexual tension, and explicit scenes between consenting adults. ━━━✦❘༻༺❘✦━━━ Webnovel updates: Mon / Wed / Fri — with extra chapters during launch week Also available (early access) on patreon (@scribblingpancake), with updates on Tue / Thur / Sat.

He reached down, twisting my head to the side. Tomas’s mark glared up from my neck and he growled softly. “It should've been me.” His words were hot against my throat. He pressed tightly into me as he kissed the mark again. “I should've owned you. Mind, body, and soul.” The words ripped through me, and I realized I was feeling his pain. This aching sadness that dipped and swirled under my skin was his. There was a desperation to him, and something hot and wet hit the skin of my throat. I jerked, hands flying to his face, pushing him up so that I could see him. Tears tracked his cheeks and suddenly I was completely unsure as to what was happening. “Tristan?” “He's hurting you.” He snarled. "He's hurting you and I'm picking up the pieces.” Something dark and wounded stared at me through Tristan's eyes. “I love you.” The words gasped out of me, heart twisting painfully in my chest. But it was true. I did, I realized. I wasn't sure when heat and need and markings had changed between us. But there it was. Something changed in his face. He gathered me up in his arms. “Say it again.” He demanded. “I love you.” I whispered the words shyly and he groaned. “Again, little fox.” “I love you, Tristan. I love you, I want you, I choose you! I fucking love you.” He bit down on the opposite side of my throat from Tomas's mark. Heat flared through me. I couldn't stop myself as I matched him bite for bite, my teeth elongated and sharp in my mouth. On his throat. For anyone to see. “I love you.” His words were soft against my skin as he licked my new wound. “I have loved you from the moment you stepped foot in this cursed place.” Something sealed the pain in my chest. It was warm, it was sweet. And it was quietly mine. Goddess help me, but I loved my mate. And it wasn't the Lycan King that heard those words first. I was in love with Tristan. ---***---***---***---***---***--- [Cassidy] All I wanted was to survive my first Shift. Make it through the night without ending up as someone’s dinner. Simple enough. Until I turned out to be a fox. My clan called it weakness. A curse. Something that needed cleaned in blood. I didn't die. I fell into the hands of Tomas, the Lycan King. Cold. Calculating. Ruthless. He doesn’t look at me like I’m broken. He looks at me like a weapon. A blade he can shape for his throne. Assassin. Spy. Monster. Whatever he needs me to be. And where Tomas rules, his men circle. Callum, the flirt who hides his scars behind easy smiles. Derek, the taskmaster who never lets me falter. William, the protector who always sees too much. But it’s Tristan I can’t ignore. The Spymaster. Silent. Watching. Dangerous. He’s supposed to be Tomas’s shadow, the one who never breaks. Yet there’s something in his gaze that tears through all my walls. Something that calls to me beyond reason, beyond fear...beyond any of them. Every day in this court of wolves and secrets carves away at my defenses. Because the deadliest danger isn’t what stalks me from the shadows. It’s the bond forming in their den. ---***---***---***---***---***--- ~>Note: This series grows into a reverse harem romance, with all the tension, betrayals, and slow-burn passion that brings. It will be brought back to a single romance. Heat builds steadily, with mature scenes beginning after Chapter 21. Reader discretion advised.
