Sia means poetry. Iseul means dew. But in their world, the poetry is written in blood and the dew has turned to poison. ​After a night of madness leaves them with a corpse and a secret they can never share, Iseul finds himself trapped in Sia's web. He hates her for what she's done; he’s terrified of what she’s become. When your only ally is also your greatest nightmare, how do you distinguish between survival and love?

She loved them both—her boyfriend and her best friend. She trusted them with her heart… and her dreams as a fashion designer. But love turned into betrayal. Left for dead after a cruel setup, she was pushed into the depths of the river—abandoned like she never mattered. Yet fate refused to let her die. She survived. And survival changed everything. When she returns, she is no longer the same girl they betrayed. She is stronger, colder, and ready to reclaim everything they stole from her—her name, her talent, and her life. But revenge is not the only thing waiting for her. A hidden truth about her birth, a powerful contract marriage, and a man who sees through her pain begin to pull her into a world she never imagined. Now, her enemies want her gone again. But this time… she is not the one who will fall.

Bree is dying. Literally. A struggling VTuber, she is stuck with seven viewers at peak time, and the pact she made with a devil in the hope of success is not helping her. The chat laughs at her when she talks about her terminal illness. Following the trend doesn’t help her. Being edgy makes her look cringe. Her time is running out and the devil is useless. All she wants is marmalade on her toast, and when she doesn’t get it, she sulks, all the while becoming incresingly jealous and possessive. Bree is told that gaining more viewers will awaken the devil’s power, though she remains skeptical. But what for? Bree doesn’t know and doesn’t care. All she wants is to be seen, recognized, and heard for once in her life before she dies. The devil may do what she wants after that. The world’s fate rests in the hands of idiots. * This is a story of a girl with big dreams and an incompetent devil with even bigger dreams—a dark psychological story with black humor, escalating stakes, and chaos.

Raven Zhao and Aidan Chen belong to the same circle, but he is the center, and she is a tangent. Embrace the flawed obsession. Do not push away the love I offer. Stars whisper your existence to me. How far will you go to hide? The shine in your eyes is affection. If not, hate me with all your being. Share a bond with me; I can bear it. Even if you take me as an enemy. -Aidan Chen

Sienna Adams’s life is anything but peaceful. She’s burdened by debts that aren’t hers and running from a past she refuses to face. Love isn’t on her mind... until she encounters Zachary Sterling. Zachary is a man shrouded in secrets. The only softness in his life is his son. Sienna should have been nothing more than a passing stranger, someone he would never recall. But something about her makes it difficult for him to walk away. Sienna doesn’t realize that Zachary is the leader of a powerful company. And Zachary doesn’t know that Sienna is the woman who once carried his child… and then vanished without a trace. Or perhaps he is the reason she vanished...? As the truth begins to surface, their past and present become intertwined. Feelings grow deeper, secrets grow darker, and love becomes dangerous. And this time, walking away may no longer be an option. ___ Excerpt: For a second, Sienna just stared at her phone as if it had suddenly become a magical object. Her mind felt slow, like it was wrapped in soft cotton, and her head leaned slightly to one side as she processed the voice. “Wow… wow…” she whispered, her lips curving into a wide, delighted smile. “Mr. Handsome Zach, it’s you…” There was a brief pause. “Yes, it’s me,” Zachary replied, though now his tone carried a clear trace of confusion. “Sienna… are you drunk?” “Wow, I'm surprised! Mr. Dangerous-for-my-sanity, you accepted my call…” she continued instead, completely ignoring his question. Then she laughed. It wasn’t her usual quiet laugh. It was light, free, and a little too loud for someone sitting alone in a dark apartment. The sound filled the room, bouncing off the walls, making her feel like she wasn’t alone at all. On the other end, Zachary stayed silent for a moment, clearly trying to understand what exactly was happening. “Sienna,” he said again, more firmly this time, “where are you now?”

I caught the eyes of the monster. A monster covered behind- a race suit and a helmet. Dashing. Hot tempered. Charming. Yet warnings of red flag plastered like an advertisement on my boss or specifically my driver- as his sheep's clothes barely hid those narcissistic, arrogant, and sadist traits. Was I scared? Opposite. I was attracted to this villain. A trepidation. This isn't anymore lovely or professional but feels like- Hades is ready to claim his Persephone. One thing that doesn't match with the equation is I am no Persephone. I won't run or hide. This whatever is going on between us, is about to ruin our lives-'miserably'. Specifically I gave myself to a soul carving demon. My Demon.
