They all thought she spent her days just getting into trouble, living life recklessly. What others didn't know though was those words are far from what she actually is! A Genius!

Kim Na Ri and Han Chae Soo were inseparable, their bond forged over years of being neighbors and the shared laughter of their families. For as long as she could remember, Chae Soo was her constant—a protector, a confidant, and perhaps something more. But everything changed seven months ago, when a tragic accident left Na Ri scarred, not just physically but emotionally. Since then, Chae Soo has been pulling away, his once-warm gaze now cold, his presence a ghost of what it used to be. Enter Lee Yul, the enigmatic new guy with an easy smile and a heart seemingly too kind for this world. Unlike Chae Soo, Yul doesn’t flinch at Na Ri’s scars—he embraces her for who she is, becoming the friend and comfort she didn’t know she needed. But his arrival stirs something in Chae Soo, something he’s kept buried beneath the walls he’s built around himself. As Na Ri tries to navigate the confusing distance from Chae Soo and the blossoming connection with Yul, secrets begin to unravel—secrets that might explain why Chae Soo is so determined to keep her at arm’s length. Is it guilt? Fear? Or something deeper, something he’s too afraid to admit even to himself? In this tale of love, friendship, and hidden truths, "Love At Side" invites you to uncover the reasons behind Chae Soo’s silence and the role Lee Yul plays in Na Ri’s life. Sometimes, the person you’re meant to be with is the one who pushes you away—and the one who stays might not be as perfect as they seem.

Stuck in a reality where System rules govern survival, Dan’s unique power to resurrect makes him a legend, if he can handle dying a few hundred times first

When something is filled to the brim, it is common knowledge that it has hit its capacity – nothing else can go in without the risk of overflowing. But that's not the case for celestial beings, who have nothing inside them but greed for power and fame amongst themselves. So, this brings the question... What happens when your own God gets greedy? What happens, when the one you pray to every night... betrays you, and your world? A young man living in Seattle found himself asking this very question when he was abruptly thrown into a strange mix of strangers – a place which, frankly, he didn't belong to. Can he even begin to compare to these beasts, or will he remain weak and frail, like a worthless background character? Will he ever be able to catch up to the main characters? This is the story of that man... and his will to defy the expectations.

More than any dagger, treachery tears. Once the respected Commander of the High Guard, Arden Solis knew devotion like a second skin until the day it was torn away. Driven from the one home they have ever known, Arden follows those she once guarded, accused for treason and thrown into exile. The Council chose earlier its scapegoat. Arden is portrayed as the orchestrator of a horrible attack on Eldermire using fake documents, false witnesses, and carefully thought out conspiracies—forgotten proof. Still, the real genius lurks in the background and pulls strings from the highest degrees of power. Arden is left without direction, hence he creates a strained relationship with Kellan Veylan—the only person who understands the depths of the dishonesty but also the one who may have begun it. Their shared history twists in love and heartbreak, trust and deceit. Kellan says he is innocent, having been put up just as Arden was. Arden could, however, believe him or is this another game of dishonesty? As they find the truth, the two fugitives are trapped in an ancient prophecy—one that outlines a cycle of betrayal spun directly into the fabric of Fate. Two betrayers, one designed to rise and the other punished to fall. Eldermire's deadliest danger is not the one they expected; the more he investigates deeper Arden finds: The debate really goes beyond simple fairness. It goes for override of Fate itself. Arden now needs to choose whether to fight for vengeance or flee the fate destined to catastrophe. But for those who dare question Fate, she has never been kind. In a world where trust is a luxury and betrayal is inherent, how one might escape a destiny already written in blood?

In her first life, she belonged to the highest authority in the land. She was her King's most used weapon. The shadow beneath the feet of his enemies.

The light in their eyes. In the end, she was schemed against and fell to her death. What will happen when the betrayed weapon becomes the ruined princess instead? "Never give them what they want. Do the opposite. That's the best revenge. Live when you should be dead. Laugh when you should be sad."

A girl whose world revolves around someone special will she ever be able to get his love or life is deciding something else for her

IMPORTANT This is only a sample. i have signed a contract with webnovel and the story will be up after editing in a short while here under the same title. Here is the link to the full book. https://www.webnovel.com/book/little-girl's-wild-side_21129307106524005### Gautham bend down to bury his head on Sindhu's shoulders and said, " Will you say 'Yes' already!" What surprised Sindhu was the tinch of desperation in his voice. How did Gautham end up feeling so much for her in a matter of a month??? Even Gautham did not know how desperate he was to make her his. Just now when he saw Sindhu make such adorable face, he felt something break inside him at the thought that she will be showing such faces to someone else if she ended up marrying someone else. "Its driving me crazy you know. The things that you are making me feel.", Gautham said with a slightly annoyed voice. Sindhu did not say anything. She just tightened her hold around him and stayed in his embrace. After a while, Gautham finally let her go. He took one last look at her face, quickly said his bye and left. He feared if he stayed any longer, he would start begging her. ........................................ This is my first work. So i hope people can give it a shot. But this one is going to be very different from the stories you would have seen in here. They are literally worlds apart. There is no backstabbing ex or a greedy relative or a dark haunting past. This is a pleasant light love story of two people facing arranged marriage. A slightly messed up wild woman and a very normal clumsy man. the story should have about 60 chapters and the whole story for most parts is complete. So it wont get dropped in the middle. Hope you like it.

As the bond of marriage weakens under the relentless daily emergency calls, a sudden catastrophe pushes them to the brink of decision. In the moment between life and death, their love and promises are put to the ultimate test.
