But fate grants her a second chance. She wakes up five years in the past, her heart hardened and mind sharp with memories of betrayal.

But just when her world is fueled by vengeance, an unexpected bond forms. Enter Mila Blackwood, a bright and curious little girl who clings to Elena with innocent affection. Mila runs to her father Lucas Blackwood... "Dad, that pretty Auntie... I like her a lot. Can she be my mother?" "I won't get married again in this life," Lucas ruthlessly rejected his daughter. Lucas Blackwood is the cold and enigmatic CEO of the Blackwood Industries—who hides his own scars behind an icy exterior. On the path of revenge himself, will he make way for love in his life?

In the span of a year, I lost my entire family. My father was killed in a helicopter crash with my grandfather. My mother was condemned by society and lost her life at the hands of the patient’s family. My eldest brother worked himself to death trying to hold everything together. My second brother was destroyed by the entertainment world he once loved. And my youngest sister, barely eighteen, was bullied to the point of suicide. When I returned home after a few years abroad, all that was left of them were ashes and whispers. Now, with my hawk-like relatives circling the family legacy my bloodline built for over a century, I have only one way to keep it from being devoured. Marriage. It was the condition for me to receive it. So I chose a stranger. Not just any stranger, the coldest one I could find. A man who wouldn’t flinch even if I drowned the world in blood. He looked at me from across his office, his eyes sharp, unreadable. “Why should I marry you?” he asked. “Just because of that century-old inherita—” “I don’t care about that,” I cut him off. He frowned, annoyed or intrigued, I couldn’t tell. “All I’m saying,” I told him. “Is that I can give you an entertainment you’ll never forget.” He said nothing. Just stared. So I stood, walked to his window, and watched the city spread beneath us. “Don’t you think this place is already too boring?” I asked softly. “I plan to run amok. To turn this country upside down. Maybe even the world.” When I turned back to him, there was something different in his gaze. Interest. Maybe danger. “I don’t care about the money,” I said. “But I won’t let them have a single cent. I’ll use every drop of it to wreak havoc…” A cold smile tugged at my lips. “…and let blood rain.” He raised a brow, the corner of his mouth curving slightly. “Oh,” he said. “That is indeed… interesting.”

Two souls, decades apart, bound by a single moment of tragedy. ​In 1999, Sunghoon had it all. A top-tier actor with a silver tongue and an ego to match, he lived for the spotlight,until New Year’s Eve, when a sudden fall from his high-rise balcony ended his reign. But instead of the "dark abyss," Sunghoon wakes up in 2025, trapped in the body of Haru, a 23-year-old struggling to survive in a world he no longer recognizes. ​Forced to navigate a digital age where fame is measured in clicks rather than talent, Sunghoon must rebuild his life from scratch as he is unexpectedly thrust back into the industry he once ruled, he discovers that the secrets of his past didn't stay buried in the nineties. He navigates the new world with the help of his friends and new found family as he relearns what love truly is. ** ​Raiven (Jae-wook), the lead idol of the world-famous group RE-draft. To the fans, he is the "Ice Prince",cold, untouchable, and perfect. Behind the scenes, he is a man drowning in the shadows of depression and a secret addiction, his heart locked away from a world he views as frivolous. ​When a chance encounter binds the displaced actor and the falling star together, their friction sparks something neither expected. As Sunghoon teaches Raiven how to truly live, Raiven might just be the one to save Sunghoon’s "wretched soul." ******* ​"I love you. All of you," Haru whispered, his forehead resting against Raiven’s. His arm remained anchored around Raiven's waist, holding him steady, pulling him close with a gentleness that suggested he was afraid even the slightest force might break the man beneath him. ​Raiven let out a shaky breath, closing his eyes as he surrendered to Haru's warm embrace. ​Haru buried his face in the crook of Raiven’s neck, his breath warm against the skin. ​"If you keep saying things like that, I might just have to pin you down and fuck you again," Raiven murmured, a small, tired smirk tugging at his lips. ​Haru let out a soft, melodic chuckle, his lips grazing Raiven’s pulse point. Raiven’s skin reacted instantly, a shiver racing through him. He held his breath, his grip on Haru tightening as he fought to savor every ounce of proximity and warmth. ​He held on as if Haru were a ghost that might dissipate at any moment. He was terrified that if he let go, this would all prove to be an illusion,that he would be left in the cold again. That Haru wouldn't be his anymore. ​He wasn't ready to give up the sight of Haru’s beauty, or the way Haru whimpered and moaned his name as he worshipped his body. He had grown to adore Haru's quirks,the old-fashioned phrases that slipped from his tongue, the way his eyes danced with a century's worth of glee and curiosity. ​But most of all, Raiven was afraid that if Haru looked just a little bit closer, he would see the truth: exactly how much he had come to mean to him. ****

The life of the underworld was something Ashley had dreamed of escaping all her life. Born as a bastard from an affair between an underworld kingpin and a prostitute, Ashley was meant to die even before she was born. The only reason she survived was that her father thought she was a boy. From a young age, she understood that if she wanted to survive in this world of violence—on top of her father’s wife and daughter’s schemes—she had to be useful. So, she made herself a promise: one day, she would escape this world. Ashley almost succeeded… until her father found her again and thrust her into a marriage of convenience with his rival, Dominion, in his beloved daughter’s place. Everyone in the underworld knew Dominion. They were cruel, organized, and simply spawns of evil. And the man who stood above that power, Luciano, was said to be downright diabolical. Just their name alone could make anyone tremble. And this organization was where Ashley now had to survive. To make matters worse, the marriage also came with a child — Luciano’s mute heir. Forced to become the wife of one of the most violent and powerful underworld organizations, and the mother of its future leader, Ashley made a vow. “No matter what, I’ll escape this place!” But she would soon realize it wouldn’t be as simple as that. Not when the feared members of Dominion clung to her feet, begging, “Madam, don’t go!” And when the mute stepson finally spoke, “Mommy, if you’re leaving, please take me with you.” Finally, her diabolical, obsessive, and utterly territorial husband said, “I’ve packed our things. Where should we go?”

This is the end. I’m going to die… That was the only thought in my mind as I stood surrounded by monsters, abandoned by my teachers and classmates during a monster rampage. Just as the Minotaur raised its hammer to crush me, a figure appeared out of nowhere. He swung his scythe and sliced the beast in half, then cut down the rest of the monsters in the blink of an eye. From that day on, I saw him as my savior. But why did everyone else see him as a villain? The media painted him as cruel and cold, a brutal ranker with an awful personality. They called him dangerous, someone to be feared and hated. What the hell are you guys talking about? Ezekiel isn’t like that! But no one believed me. Years passed, and I saw him again... It was at his funeral. He saved my life, and I couldn't save his. The guilt crushed me. But then, a miracle came. I was given a chance to make one single wish. “I wish I could save him!” I shouted without hesitation. And in that moment, time turned back to the day he died. #modernfantasy #romance #femaleleadpov #dungeons #rankers #adventurers #monsters #gates#internet#revenge

Bound by blood and prophecy, Kael Ardyn, heir of the prestigious and semi-divine Eclipsed Dynasty, has lived his seventeen years under the weight of a strange, uncontrollable shadow that whispers and moves with a will of its own. Unknown to him, this shadow is not merely a reflection of his power but a fragment of his own soul, cursed since birth to test the balance between mastery and humility. Confined within the towering walls of his family manor, forbidden from venturing beyond, Kael feels both trapped and restless, his godlike abilities stifled by uncertainty and fear of his own strength. It is during this confinement that Riven, a young man sent by the Council, arrives with a sealed scroll and a duty that intertwines their fates. Riven’s calm composure and determined presence unsettle Kael, yet ignite a spark of curiosity. Though strangers at first, the two are quickly drawn together by the enigma of Kael’s shadow, which reacts unpredictably in Riven’s presence. A subtle tension brews between them, layered with fascination, apprehension, and the first hints of something more profound that neither fully understands. As whispers of the prophecy linger at the edges of Kael’s consciousness, the two young men are forced to leave the safety of the manor. Their journey begins when Kael discovers fragments of ancient texts hinting at a way to break the curse that binds him to his shadow. What follows is a quest across a fractured world, filled with floating cities, treacherous landscapes, and secret societies that have long monitored the Eclipsed Dynasty’s power. Each location holds its own dangers, from rogue factions of the Council to monstrous creatures born from the imbalance of light and shadow. Kael’s abilities, impressive yet incomplete, are tested at every turn. His shadow, ever independent, acts with motives unknown, sometimes protecting, sometimes defying, forcing Kael to learn patience, adaptability, and the limits of control. Riven becomes both ally and anchor, guiding him through moral and strategic dilemmas while challenging Kael to confront the deeper truths of his bloodline. Their partnership grows, evolving from reluctant companionship into a bond forged through trust, shared danger, and the slow emergence of mutual affection. Throughout their journey, they encounter allies and adversaries alike. Some seek to exploit Kael’s power, others to destroy it. Ancient artifacts, lost spells, and cryptic prophecies surface as clues to undo the curse, each step revealing more about the delicate balance of the world and the true stakes of Kael’s destiny. The curse is revealed not as a punishment but as a test of character, requiring Kael to confront not only external threats but the shadows of his own heart — pride, fear, and unspoken desires. Love and loyalty are tested repeatedly. Moments of heartbreak, miscommunication, and near betrayal shape their dynamic, creating opportunities for growth, vulnerability, and emotional depth. Riven’s unwavering courage and empathy become Kael’s guide through despair, teaching him that mastery of power is inseparable from understanding oneself and those one holds dear. The journey is long, arduous, and filled with sacrifices, yet it is also rich with moments of wonder, beauty, and quiet intimacy: shared nights under alien skies, laughter amid chaos, and fleeting touches that speak volumes without words. As they progress, the scale of their quest expands. Entire kingdoms, ancient factions, and elemental forces become intertwined in Kael’s fate. Each challenge forces him to confront the nature of his power and the consequences of wielding it without wisdom. Shadows and light, life and death, desire and duty — all become instruments of the prophecy, guiding Kael toward the ultimate choice: to dominate his power selfishly or to harmonize with it in a way that restores balance. The culmination of their adventure promises not only the potential breaking of the curse but the forging of a lege

Ezra Belloren is a knight. The most faithful blade of the first prince, Helios De Luxaelian Sunthyr. Feared across the land, he is known as the Crimson Fae, a knight whose beauty is always stained with blood. No one questions his loyalty or his skill. But Ezra carries a secret he has sworn never to reveal. He is an omega. For twenty-four years, Ezra hid his second gender and lived content with his life as a knight. That secret alone was dangerous enough. Then, on an unexpected night, he found himself under the gaze of a gold-eyed prince, and everything changed. Five years later, Ezra returns from a long “vacation” after receiving urgent letters from Helios about the kingdom’s worsening state, calling his captain back to duty. He does not return alone. At his side is a child with golden eyes, the unmistakable mark of royal blood. Ezra will do whatever it takes to fulfill his duty as a knight, even if it means hiding the truth of his hidden heir from the very kingdom he swore to protect. ⊱༺༒︎༻⊰ “Maman… do I have a papa?” Lior asks, his eyes wide with innocent curiosity. Ezra almost frowns at the sudden question. He stops himself just in time. “Of course you do.” Lior’s grip tightens around his sleeve. “Where is he?” Ezra doesn’t answer right away. How could he? How could he explain that Lior’s father was someone he had already met, someone who walked the halls of the palace in gold and authority? Someone who could never be allowed to know he existed.

“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.

A fashion show leads me back to my high school sweetheart “Alessandro Marchetti” How do I explain where I’ve been the past seven years and that he is the father of my child.
