Lina Yanti

Marked by the Ruthless Princess

In her previous life, Lina Riley harbored an unrequited love for the Fifth Princess, Victoria Ashwood. Lina sacrificed everything for her—securing her place on the throne, protecting her borders, and losing her arm and sight in the process. Yet, her loyalty was repaid with a goblet of poisoned wine and the execution of her entire family. Victoria despised her, accusing Lina of cruelty and of orchestrating her elder sister’s death, deeming her unworthy of love. When the poison took effect, Lina closed her eyes in despair, only to awaken back in the moment they first met. On that fateful day, Lina had stumbled upon Victoria being beaten by palace maids, an encounter that set everything in motion. This time, Lina turned away, choosing a different path, but a faint fragrance of plum blossoms lured her in. One reckless night led to a moment of despair when she awoke to find the coldly beautiful face of her bedmate—Lucille Everard, the Princess Regent. Lucille, while outwardly uninterested in court affairs, was notorious for her swift and decisive actions that had seen emperors replaced with alarming frequency. Compared to Lucille’s power, Lina’s past dealings with Victoria seemed like mere child's play. As Lucille stirred awake, Lina's nerves were frayed. “Given the circumstances, Your Highness, what do you think of me now?” she asked, resigned to her fate. To her surprise, Lucille chuckled softly. “I think you’re wonderful.” Stunned, Lina could only manage a confused “Huh?” From that moment, everything veered off course. Lucille's palace soon bloomed with roses—Lina’s favorite. Amidst the swaying blossoms, the resolute Princess Regent would gently take Lina’s hand, her once-frigid gaze warm and tender. “My dear Lina, you are the finest woman in the world.” In her new life, Lina often dreamed. She dreamt of someone leaving a bouquet of roses at her grave, their robes trailing the light fragrance of plum blossoms. They sipped wine with a wry smile, murmuring, “Silly girl, I avenged you.” Victoria Ashwood was reborn too. She hadn’t expected that killing Lina would provoke her aunt’s ruthless revenge. Determined to avoid a similar fate, she resolved to feign affection for Lina, even if it took a lifetime. At a palace banquet, Victoria was taken aback by Lina’s beauty. Draped in fine silks, Lina was a dazzling sight, so different from the weathered woman Victoria remembered. Drawn to her, Victoria was about to approach when she noticed Lucille at Lina’s side, gently wiping her lips with a soft smile. “Take it slow,” Lucille murmured. Lina paused, then chuckled as she adjusted a strand of Lucille’s hair. Victoria’s heart twisted in fury. When her desperate attempts to win Lina back failed, she demanded, “Why won’t you love me?” Lina sneered. “Show some respect, Fifth Princess. You should address me as Aunt. Besides, your hypocrisy and cold-heartedness make you unworthy of love.” Years ago, a young Lucille Everard encountered a lost girl in the palace gardens. The girl declared that Lucille was beautiful and promised to marry her one day. Thirteen years later, a fateful misunderstanding during a bout of poisoning entwined their paths. What began as teasing quickly turned Lucille from a hunter into prey, helplessly ensnared by the woman she never forgot. Tags: 1.

Eclipsing Boundaries: The Energy Within

Kairo Solis was your average broke college dropout—well, if “average” includes accidentally blowing up his microwave with raw energy while trying to make instant ramen. Turns out, he’s got this thing called Aeterna inside him, a mystical energy that can either unlock his infinite potential or turn him into a human firecracker. No big deal. Enter Zephyr Ionis, a shady mentor who appears out of thin air and starts spouting fortune cookie wisdom like, “Your greatest enemy is yourself,” while stealing Kairo’s last slice of pizza. Armed with cryptic advice, zero patience, and a stick he keeps whacking Kairo with during training, Zephyr sets Kairo on the path to becoming a Synchros master. But mastering Aeterna isn’t as easy as meditating and humming "om." For one, Kairo’s got to juggle protecting his little sister, Lina (who thinks Aeterna is just a fancy word for him being a dork), dodging the Shadowed Council (a group of edgy villains who seem to shop exclusively at Hot Topic), and confronting Lucan Drayke—a guy so dramatic he makes villains from soap operas look subtle. Between epic battles that could level city blocks and arguments over who ate the last energy bar, Kairo learns that true strength isn’t about punching harder—it’s about harmonizing with his inner self. And maybe, just maybe, it’s about not accidentally setting his pants on fire when trying out a new ability. Will Kairo save the world? Will he unlock the mysteries of Aeterna? Or will he spend the rest of his life arguing with Zephyr over whether pineapple belongs on pizza? One thing’s for sure: the universe is in for an explosive ride, and Kairo is about to prove that sometimes, the best way to eclipse boundaries is with a little humor and a lot of heart.
