"I DO" → "I DIE." Hours after marrying her longtime crush—icy CEO Nathan Jang—heiress Vanessa Belmont is stabbed, kidnapped, and left to bleed out in a wrecked car. The final insult?

FATE REWINDS Reborn six months before her murder, Vanessa upgrades her life with new rules: * Ditch the doormat era. (Badass mode: activated.) * Live for herself. (And okay, fine—revenge.) * Avoid Nathan like he’s the reason she died. (Oh, wait…) TOO BAD NATHAN 2.0 IS OBSESSED Now he’s everywhere—lingering touches, midnight texts, and panty-melting kisses. Not to mention his hungry gaze—like she’s an all-you-can-eat buffet and he's starving. VANESSA'S SECOND CHANCE PLAN 1. Don’t die. (Again.) 2. Don’t fall for Nathan. (Too late.) 3. Eat more carbs. (Donuts!) As for Nathan? She’ll forgive him when hell freezes over. Or when he takes off his shirt. Whichever comes first. ***|***|***|***|*** ASH CITY BILLIONAIRES Love is the ultimate power play. ***|***|***|***|***

Theo Duskblood was born to crush protagonists. In his past life, he was just another bored young man—fed up with cliché stories where goody-two-shoes heroes always won, villains existed only to be face-slapped, and the “righteous” always got the girl.

I’m cultivating sarcasm and scandal.” Theo will crush destiny under polished boots, seduce heroines mid-monologue, and prove once and for all: The villain always has more fun.

When the wicked die, they descend into a realm of fire and shadow—Hell, where the most corrupted souls, the Hellbound, face a gauntlet of seven deadly trials. Each trial is a crucible forged from a deadly sin and its opposing virtue. Only those who embody the virtues and resist the weight of their sin can ascend and be reborn. The rest are damned forever. Each Hellbound is branded with two marks: – A sin, granting cursed power that grows stronger the more it devours them. – A virtue, the key to real strength, and the only path to escape.

As Damien claws through monsters, sinners, and twisted reflections of humanity, a question stalks him like a shadow: Can a man built on lies ever find something real enough to redeem?
