Get Rid of Him

[COMPLETED] ---------- "For ten years, I have loved you in vain. Now, my love has withered." Liliana Xin was treated like wallpaper in her four years of marriage with her CEO husband Asher Shen, despite her best efforts to build a happy home. She thought she could endure his neglect, but when a miscarriage got her nothing but a cold shoulder from her husband, Liliana decided enough was enough! "Divorce me this instant." What's the use of wallowing in self-pity? Shouldn't she be her own boss and lead a life without begging for a man's love anymore? It was time for her to squeeze out massive alimony from this apathetic man and leave to become a successful woman on her own! On her healing journey, Liliana crossed paths with Lucas Liu. The younger man had the same forlorn look in his eyes, reminding Liliana of her misery. "Join me. I'll make you more powerful." She promised, wanting to save him to repay him for his kindness. He was there for her at her lowest. With Lucas and her friends, Liliana continued moving forward. She didn't look back at the people who had never cherished her. They were no longer important to her. But there's someone that wasn't happy with this new development. Asher reappeared, his frosty cold mask was replaced with deep regret and longing. "I was wrong. Please, come back! I'll do anything!" Liliana scoffed, turning her back on her first love. She won't repeat the same mistake of loving him ever again. ------------ WSA 2023 Entry: Billionaire/CEO/Mafia Exclusive cover by @khaizusan (Instagram) Tags: slowburn, weaktostrong, boss-subordinate, divorce Please note that the characters are not OP from the start.

Rediscovering Us

Emily wakes up in a hospital with no memory of her past, only to find Tyler, a man who claims to be her boyfriend, by her side. He tells her they had a beautiful relationship before her accident, and though she doesn’t remember, she trusts his words. Tyler is gentle, patient, and always there for her—so why does a part of her feel empty? As she tries to adjust to her new life, Emily encounters Ethan Blackwood, a cold and distant CEO who looks at her with a storm of emotions hidden behind his sharp gaze. The moment their eyes meet, a sharp pain shoots through Emily’s head, followed by fleeting memories—ones that contradict Tyler’s version of her past. Ethan refuses to acknowledge their connection, acting as if she means nothing to him. But why does her heart ache when he turns away? Something isn’t right. Every time Emily questions her past, Tyler dodges the topic. The way he watches her, the way he subtly keeps her away from certain people—it feels like he’s hiding something. Desperate for answers, she turns to Ethan’s secretary, Oliver, hoping he can fill in the blanks. At first, Oliver hesitates, clearly torn between loyalty and concern, but soon he confirms Emily’s suspicions—Tyler is lying. The truth slowly unravels—Ethan wasn’t just someone she knew; he was her real lover. Their love had once been deep and unbreakable, yet something tore them apart. But if Ethan loved her, why did he let her go? Why is he avoiding her now? As Emily digs deeper, she discovers a horrifying truth—her accident wasn’t an accident at all. Someone wanted her to forget. Someone wanted to erase Ethan from her life. But why? The more she uncovers, the more danger follows her. Tyler grows more possessive, Ethan refuses to open his heart, and the pieces of the past don’t add up. When the real reason behind her accident comes to light, Emily is faced with a devastating choice—fight for the love she once had or live in the lie she was forced into. In a world where memories can be stolen and love can be rewritten, Emily must uncover the truth before it’s too late. But will Ethan still be there when she remembers everything? Or has she already lost him forever?

Rays of Us

In the dystopian city of Rylos, where the government dictates love through a behavioral score-based lottery, Nico Knight is a man who’s always gotten what he wants. A nightclub tycoon with a reputation, he’s never had to answer to anyone until the lottery pairs him with Odalis, a quiet librarian with an air of calm that feels almost too controlled. To Nico, Odalis is a puzzle of a woman too ordinary, too unremarkable to pique his interest. But there’s something about her stillness that begins to intrigue him. Beneath the surface, he senses a storm she’s carefully hiding. Nico finds himself questioning whether he really knows what he wants or if his true challenge lies in the mystery of Odalis herself. (Sneak peak scene) Nico slouched on the couch, drunk, eyes fixed on Odalis as she read, the quiet hum of the room wrapping around them like a soft cocoon. Nico: You know, I never imagined a woman like you would be in my life. Quiet, composed... not my taste. Odalis (without looking up): And what did you imagine? Nico: Someone like me. Loud. Reckless. Odalis: Sorry for the disappointment. He blinked, his eyelids heavy, the pull of sleep growing stronger. Nico: “You’re like... an angel, in the wrong place.” His head dropped back, surrendering to sleep. Odalis glanced at him, a faint smile playing at her lips. Odalis (whispering): “You’re wrong, Nico Knight. Maybe the wrong place is exactly where I need to be.” She tucked him in, the soft rustle of fabric the only sound, and returned to her book. The silence between them now felt strangely comfortable.

Finding Him (BxB+)

Kalypso "Kali" Brunn was searching. He was trying to find someone he once knew well, someone he'd lost without even realizing. Kali needed the man who could wholeheartedly love himself and the company of others yet live happily, even alone. That someone wouldn't need another leading their life, completely shaping every thought he had, each action he performed, and the emotions he'd felt. He simply had to see that man's lost smile once more, a smile so true and pure, and he believed the Black Manor was the best place to look. It was the perfect home for Kali to find himself again. A peaceful, private, and honest(deceptively so) abode for him to relax and heal in. It seemingly had the most perfect conditions. The only downside of the new arrangement would be that he's yet to shake off his loneliness. He's determined to get along with his new housemates, but it's proven to be hard, especially as half of them blatantly ignore him and the other half downright hate his mere presence. But who's to say the future won't change? Perhaps his clumsy, self-deprecating ways will finally garner him some much-needed attention. Maybe they'll see just how much he needs someone to stand by him, even if he happens to claim otherwise for pride's sake... Or suppose they could continue to ignore him until he stays forever stuck in his regrettable past. Kali doesn't want to think about the 'scumbag' he ran away from or the friends that hurt him. They didn't deserve his tears any more than he deserved the emotional turmoil he'd suffered through.
