The Bride They Burned He married me for a bet. Then made me bleed to entertain his friends. I was the perfect wife. Obedient. Loving. Devoted. Until my husband turned my life into a game. > “Walk on glass to save your son.” “Smile while you bleed.” “Beg like a good girl.” And when I finally broke, they ended me—with a knife to my heart and laughter in their eyes. But I didn't stay dead. I returned in a new body. More beautiful. More dangerous. And this time—I won’t cry. I won’t beg. I’ll make them fall for me. And then I’ll destroy them. One by one. ---

By day, Joon-ho runs a discreet, high-end massage clinic in Seoul, specializing in pain relief and body alignment. But behind the soundproof doors, his true gift lies in reading the deepest cravings of the women who walk through his door—and giving their bodies exactly what they need. From overworked executives to national celebrities, no woman leaves untouched—or unchanged. When Harin, his former campus crush turned office worker, reenters his life, one night of pleasure turns into something far more dangerous: connection, obsession, and a partnership that blurs every boundary between business, pleasure, and possession. Now, she’s not just in his bed. She’s in his clinic. His lap. His world. And she wants to watch everything.

She loved him like the moon—distant, untouchable, and dangerously beautiful. He loved her like a secret—hidden, forbidden, and doomed from the start. Rain was born in dirt and raised in silence—an omega in a world that worships strength. Her only joy? The quiet, stolen moments with Batista, the Alpha prince who once defended her when no one else would. She loved him from the shadows, never expecting to be seen. Then he saw her… and destroyed her. He ordered her mother’s execution. He sentenced Rain to death. And she died—almost. But the girl they threw into the pit came back. Not as a servant. Not as a traitor. As something more. Now Rain walks with rage in her heart and fire in her blood. And Batista—the Alpha who once held her hand and shattered her world—wants her back. But this time? She’s not the one who’ll kneel. In a world on the brink of war, where lies wear crowns and love demands blood, Rain must decide if she’ll burn the past to the ground… or become the weapon fate always meant her to be.

In a world where everyone awakens a Trait to start their cultivation, Rhys's was considered a joke: he would never age. In a world that worships raw combat power, a Trait granting eternal youth was worthless. To his powerful family, Rhys was a talentless failure, a stain on their name. With disgust, they cast him out onto the streets, leaving him with nothing. Alone and powerless, Rhys's life was shattered when he was caught in the crossfire of a terrifying battle between two god-like cultivators. Mortally wounded and left to bleed out in an alley, he faced a lonely, pathetic end. But as Rhys's vision faded and his last breath drew near, a new power roared to life within him. [Lifespan Burning System Activated] Suddenly, his useless Trait became Rhys's greatest weapon. His infinite lifespan was now the ultimate fuel source. A divine martial art that takes a genius a hundred years to master? [Consume 100 years of lifespan. Skill comprehended to Maximum Level.] A fatal wound that no healer can mend? [Consume 10 years of lifespan. Body restored to peak condition.] An ancient, unreadable text holding the world's greatest secrets? [Consume 500 years of lifespan. All knowledge unlocked and understood.] From the brink of death, Rhys rises with a burning purpose. The world saw him as trash, but now he will trade his endless years for the strength to stand above all. (Posting this on RR under pen name Unnikuttan)

He was once the Crown Heir to the Great Dominion of Valrion — respected, admired, loved… until they turned on him. His own family. His closest friend. His beloved. Falsely accused of treason, stripped of his powers, and burned at the stake, Aedric Valtoris died cursing the gods. But the heavens heard him. And now — reborn 10 years in the past — with memories of betrayal carved deep into his soul, Aedric will tear through the realm with only one goal: Revenge. But in a world filled with gods, demons, blood contracts, and forbidden magic, he must fight not just for vengeance… …but for the right to rewrite destiny itself.

The world is a cruel and corrupt place full of envy, greed, jealousy, hatred, suffering around nearly every corner, sadness and death. Meanwhile those with a silver or golden spoon in their mouth since birth live amongst riches and luxury, all with the snap of their fingers. Most nobles had absolutely no clue as to the hardships of those of poorer family backgrounds or social standing. Magic was also heavily governed by nobility as they didn't want to lose control over those who are of lesser status. Trouble was definitely brewing in more ways than one as a particular caged animal is out and causing trouble and showing nobility who holds the true grasp of power. Whilst in the shadows another being rises to the challenge to seek revenge on those whom have wronged and slaughtered people that were caught up in the crossfire. For those who are trying to maintain their holding onto what cards in their possession from the deck of cards must tread lightly or risk everything being pulled out from beneath them in a blink of an eye. One's feelings must never ever get in the way of succession, not even for a brief moment to allow sappy feelings of love to bloom in the most unlikely of places.....or perhaps maybe it could??

He hated it, hated how angry and possessive he felt, even though he had no right to be.

Nin-Ran-Gi is a futuristic dystopian world ruled by a single nation under one authoritarian government, controlled entirely by powerful chaebols known as High Chaebols—corporate conglomerates that own everything from infrastructure to information. Society is plagued by rampant crime: narcotics, human trafficking, mass murder, kidnapping, and unspeakable atrocities.

In a world that has lost its moral compass, Agent-90 may be its final reckoning.

'Kill monsters, eat meat' 'I mean, Kill monsters, save lives. Got it.' 'Tut, I could've sworn that the first one sounded better.' She wasn't a girl looking for freedom or self-righteous liberation by a hero, or whatever shit a girl who suffered for almost all her life would crave. -the shit of a life she was living was horrible, but it was bearable, and so she got used to it. Rather, instead of freedom, what this little missy wanted was money. Lots and lots of them so she never has to worry about the next day. Money - bountiful enough that when she has to spend, she doesn't need to look back or calculate her assets to see how much she has left. Money - bountiful enough to get all the fried chicken she could ever dream of. Yeah, you heard it, fried chicken. For those who did not have money to spare leisurely, getting fried chicken was like a pipe dream to them and she had been one of those unfortunate souls. A comfortable roof above her head and no worries as to when she would get ordered around to steal. No worries about when she would get her next meal-- That was her liberation. And she got it. Just that, she got it most absurdly. Awakened! Those were the people ruling the world, alongside beastly and deadly monsters who threatened the safety of average human beings.

Alice never dreamed she would one day be awakened, and compared to others with their game-like system displaying their attributes and strength; she had a full-grown man whom only she could hear, watching her back at every turn and telling her what to do. He was kinda a pain in the ass but she couldn't complain. It was this gift he had bestowed on her that made her the most powerful Awakened there was with stats that even S-class awakeneds couldn't compare to. She was the boss, now. Mwa-hahahahaha. But life didn't go as easy and leisurely as she planned. With great power comes great responsibility, right? Well, in her case with great power comes great hunger. She couldn't go a moment without getting hungry and her stomach had become a bottomless pit. And to get food, she needed money, and to get money, she had to hunt monsters. The monsters plagued humanity, causing catastrophes and taking lives mercilessly. Those monsters, as scary as they may be, were her target and she had to face them head-on. The bigger the monsters the more money she would gain. Yeah, that was the plan, but... This guy acting as her system seemed to have other plans, putting her at the forefront of 'justice' and having her clean the mess he somewhat created. 'Ugh, I can already sense a shadow of foreboding. Someone, please tell me I'm not acting the main character role. I just want to eat, okay?'
