Rack Pulls Above The Knee

"They told me the stars could guide me home, but they never said the journey would leave me so utterly lost." Do you still remember your highschool deskmate? The boy with the brightest smile, that girl with the world's most beautiful silhouette? In three years of high school, the shadows of two people intertwine with the chalk, black and white both distinct, drifting around within the memories. The Su Yuanzhou in her memories was an underachiever in high school. He skips class to shoot pool, cheats on his exams and gets into fights. Yet, when she went back to the past she would always surprise herself for seeing a lot of his side, maybe if she did this before he probably wouldn't die. To be able to meet each other on this planet is some kind of fate, and to be able to illuminate our fleeting lives, how fortunate we are. ... Ren Yuxin was trailing behind Su Yuanzhou like a guilty puppy, her face plastered with an exaggerated pout. "Come here," Su Yuanzhou said, stopping in his tracks and turning to look at her. His tone was calm, but the slight twitch in his jaw betrayed his frustration. "Why?" Ren Yuxin asked, her voice overly cautious, taking a step back instead of forward. "Just come here." His patience was running thin. Ren Yuxin crossed her arms and tilted her head dramatically. "No! You’re going to hit me!" Su Yuanzhou froze, staring at her in disbelief. A few students nearby stifled their laughter, pretending not to watch the exchange. "I’m not going to hit you," he said, exasperated. "Do I look like that kind of person?" "Yes." Ren Yuxin nodded solemnly, her eyes wide with mock innocence. Su Yuanzhou sighed, rubbing his temples. How does she manage to drive me insane every single time? His patience—already minimal—was hanging by a thread. "Ren Yuxin," he said, his tone low and dangerous. "Come here. Now." "No way!" she retorted, taking another step back. "I know you’re mad because I—" She paused, looking guilty. "Because you what?" Su Yuanzhou prompted, narrowing his eyes. "... Because I accidentally sent that embarrassing video of you singing in the shower to our group chat," she admitted in a small voice, her eyes darting away. Su Yuanzhou’s face darkened instantly. He felt every shred of his dignity crumbling. "Accidentally?" he repeated, his voice rising. "It really was an accident!" Ren Yuxin protested, raising her hands defensively. "I didn’t mean to press send!" "Accident or not, you’re dead," Su Yuanzhou said, stepping toward her with purpose. "See! You are going to hit me!" she squealed, turning on her heels and running off. "Get back here!" he yelled, chasing after her.

"In a world where betrayal is currency and love is a battlefield, how far would you go to protect your heart?" Lia Romano thought she had escaped the chains of her past. Once the cherished wife of Dante Moretti-Il Leone, the most ruthless billionaire in Milan-she walked away with nothing but her dignity and a secret too precious to share. Her divorce was a scandal whispered in every corner of high society, but no one knew the truth: that Lia was framed for a crime she didn't commit. Now, three years later, Lia has rebuilt her life as a celebrated marketing strategist, fiercely guarded by her seven overprotective brothers, all CEOs ruling Italy's most powerful industries. But when her new job forces her to work under Dante, old wounds resurface, and so does the undeniable spark between them. Dante's world is thrown into chaos when he discovers her secret-Matteo, the son he never knew he had. As Dante fights to reclaim the family he lost, he must also face a web of conspiracies threatening to destroy everything. From Vittoria Conti, the venomous socialite who dreams of becoming Mrs. Moretti, to Alessandra Ricci, the jealous colleague hell-bent on Lia's downfall, enemies lurk at every corner. With scheming villains, jealous rivals, and shocking betrayals, Lia and Dante's love story is anything but simple. Torn between her past and her future, Lia must decide: Can she forgive the man who broke her heart, or will the shadows of his world consume them both? Amid fiery boardroom battles, luxurious galas, and emotional confrontations, La Rosa e il Leone is a tale of redemption, family loyalty, and a love that refuses to fade—even when the odds are stacked against it. "He called her his rose, but roses have thorns—and this time, she wouldn't let him bleed her dry." Will Dante prove himself worthy of Lia's love? Or will the scheming forces around them tear them apart forever?

　　Baek Yeon-ryung, male. 　　He was once involved in an extremely brutal murder case, and the victim was his only relative, his older brother, Bai Yanren. Ten years ago, the case had stirred up the entire Yecheng, not only because of the horrific state of Bai Yanren's death, but also because the person most suspected of committing the crime was only one of his own brother, Bai Yanliang. 　　The autopsy report found that Bai Yanren had been killed for a whole day, which meant that the young Bai Yanliang had been alone with the corpse for a day and a night. 　　No one knew what he had done or what he was thinking. 　　There was no sadness, no crying, no fear, and his face was expressionless. 　　His boyish face seemed to be wearing a lifelike mask, making it impossible to see the slightest emotion.

When the peaceful Emberfall Village is reduced to ashes, Azare’s life is shattered in an instant. Covus, a cunning manipulator, pins the blame on the Kingdom of Avarice's king, igniting a rebellion that threatens to engulf the realm in chaos. In a desperate attempt to flee the destruction, Azare stumbles upon an ancient altar hidden beneath the ruins of his home. Inadvertently activating its dormant spiritual power, he is pulled into the fiery depths of Hell itself. Now trapped in a brutal, otherworldly realm, Azare must navigate treacherous infernal landscapes, outwit cunning demons, and uncover the truth about his family’s forgotten past. With each trial, he grows stronger, forging unexpected alliances and awakening powers that could change his destiny—and the fate of the kingdom. But as he battles for survival and revenge, a question lingers: will Azare’s thirst for vengeance consume him, or will he rise above the flames to uncover the true villain pulling the strings?

The end of the world doesn’t care if you’re ready. Monsters swarm the streets, the sky burns with chaos, and a strange system awakens—granting power to those desperate enough to survive. Amidst the destruction, two classmates find themselves caught in fate’s twisted web. One is a lazy fool, obsessed with fantasy stories and games, who’s never cared about anything serious. The other is a quiet enigma—a regressor doomed to relive the apocalypse over and over, except this is his last regression and something has gone wrong: he’s lost his memories. When the fool discovers the identity of his classmate, curiosity turns into reluctant partnership. He knows the regressor holds the key to survival, but the regressor’s fractured memories make every step a gamble. As humanity collapses and the systemlike entity demands blood, these two mismatched misfits must navigate trials that test their strength, wit, and trust. Can a lazy dreamer and a broken hero defy the odds, or will they be swallowed by the chaos of their final stand? In a world where failure means death, the most unlikely duo might just become legends.

"I’m not here to fit in, I’m here to stand out. When the lights are brightest and the pressure’s crushing, that’s when I shine." On the cracked courts of Pinehill, Jaden "Silk" Hunter was a king. His ankle-breaking crossovers, no-look passes, and thunderous dunks made him a streetball legend. But when a scholarship pulls him into the unforgiving world of Ironwood Academy, the country’s most prestigious basketball powerhouse, Jaden learns that talent isn’t enough. At Ironwood, the court is a battlefield, every teammate is a rival, and Coach Grayson Hale rules with an iron fist. The flashy, unpredictable style that made Jaden a legend on the streets is seen as reckless and immature here. His teammates doubt him, his coach benches him, and the media begins to whisper: Is "Silk" all show and no substance? But Jaden isn’t here to play by anyone else’s rules. With his pride on the line and the weight of his hometown’s expectations on his shoulders, he’s determined to prove that style and substance can coexist that you can rewrite the game and still come out on top. When rival prodigies, team betrayals, and mounting pressure push him to the edge, Jaden must rise beyond raw talent and show everyone that greatness isn’t just about playing the game, it’s about playing the Game Above Game. Will Jaden rise to the top, or will the weight of greatness bring him crashing down?

In a world where cities float above the clouds, powered by the ancient magic of Aetherion, Caius Vaelen, heir to a powerful noble family, is drawn to the secrets of the Skyshards—fragments of Aetherion with mysterious power. His search leads him into the underground Skyfall Bazaar, where he meets Aurelia Skylar, a skilled thief with knowledge of the dangerous magic that sustains the floating cities. Aurelia warns Caius that Aetherion is not something to be trifled with, but when the two are forced into an unlikely alliance, they uncover a dark conspiracy that threatens the very foundation of their world. As their bond deepens, they realize that Caius’s growing power over the Skyshards links them in ways neither can fully understand. With enemies closing in—including Caius’s own family—they must navigate a treacherous path of magic, betrayal, and trust. Together, they must decide whether to control the power of Aetherion—or risk losing everything.

The apocalypse from the game becomes a reality, and the world experiences catastrophic changes. Meteorites impact the Earth, zombies run amok, the Ice Age descends, insectoid invasions occur, and mythical creatures invade. Amidst these numerous calamities, the human population is reduced to a tenth of its former size. In this moment of despair, Evander acquires a trial system. He starts by registering at an interplanetary shelter before the disaster strikes, stockpiling tens of billions in supplies, manufacturing high-tech weaponry, unlocking genetic potential, and establishing a superior power. While others are still suffering from hunger, Evander has already enjoyed fresh-picked vegetables from that day. While others are struggling with severe cold, everyone inside the shelter has already warmed up with heating. When danger approaches, loyal individuals within the shelter, united as one, defend their homes and families. In the face of despair, Evander becomes the last line of defense, guarding the faint spark of hope to glow once again.

I once thought myself an outlier, only to learn of the existence of beings known as the "extraordinary." Yet, even among them, I found no place to belong. If my suspicions are correct, I am likely a zombie—a particularly benevolent one. I have no desire to gnaw on others; all I wish is to live peacefully. How I yearn to be a normal person! Hmm? The Revolt of Jiashen? The Eight Miraculous Skills? I've heard these might hold the key to restoring my humanity. Humans! Hand them over at once! Or else—I'll teach you a lesson you'll never forget!

Quem é você? Acordei de sobressalto, desorientada e com dores pelo corpo todo. Um corpo masculino pesado estava ao meu lado --- ambos estávamos nus, exceto pelo lençol que cobria nossos corpos. Eu procurava em minhas memórias pela noite anterior, tentando entender como havia parado aqui enquanto tentava enrolar o lençol em meu corpo. Parei quando percebi que deixaria meu parceiro de cama totalmente nu. Eu me recordava de ter dito repetidamente: 'Sou sua companheira!' Com cuidado, saí da cama para procurar roupas. Tentei ser tão silenciosa quanto possível para não acordar o estranho. Seu cheiro estava impregnado em mim, em tudo na verdade. Rico e masculino, cada vez que eu respirava, sentia como se estivesse sendo envolvida pela floresta, com toques de madeira e uma especiaria quente que eu não conseguia identificar. Eu queria voltar para a cama ao lado dele e nunca mais sair. Minha loba, Rayne, resmungava em minha mente: 'Não deveríamos partir! Ele é o nosso companheiro!'

"Siapa kamu?" Saya terbangun dengan terkejut, bingung dan sakit di seluruh tubuh. Tubuh laki-laki berat terbaring di samping saya---kami berdua telanjang kecuali seprai yang menutupi tubuh kami. Saya mencari ingatan malam sebelumnya, mencoba memahami bagaimana saya bisa berakhir di sini sambil mencoba membungkus seprai di sekitar tubuh saya. Saya berhenti ketika saya menyadari bahwa saya akan meninggalkan pasangan tidur saya telanjang total. Saya mengingat diri saya berkata berulang kali, "Aku pasanganmu!" Saya perlahan-lahan turun dari tempat tidur untuk mencari pakaian. Saya mencoba sebisanya agar tidak membangunkan orang asing itu. Aromanya menyelimuti saya, menyelimuti segala sesuatu sebenarnya. Kaya dan maskulin, setiap kali saya bernapas saya merasa seakan sedang dikelilingi oleh hutan dengan sentuhan kayu dan rempah hangat yang tidak bisa saya namai. Saya ingin merangkak kembali ke tempat tidur di sampingnya dan tidak pernah pergi. Serigala saya, Rayne, bergumam di kepala saya, "Kita tidak seharusnya pergi! Dia adalah pasangan kita!"

« Qui es-tu ? » Je me suis réveillée d'un sursaut, désorientée et endolorie de partout. Un corps masculin lourd était allongé à côté de moi --- nous étions tous les deux nus, à l'exception d'un drap couvrant nos corps. Je recherchais dans ma mémoire les événements de la nuit précédente, essayant de comprendre comment j'avais atterri ici tout en tentant d'enrouler le drap autour de mon corps. Je me suis arrêtée en me rendant compte que je laisserais mon compagnon de lit totalement dénudé. Je me suis souvenue m'être répétée sans cesse : « Je suis ta compagne ! » Je me suis dégagée doucement du lit à la recherche de vêtements. J'ai essayé d'être aussi silencieuse que possible pour ne pas réveiller l'étranger. Son parfum était partout sur moi, sur tout en fait. Riche et masculin, chaque fois que je respirais, j'avais l'impression d'être enveloppée par la forêt avec des notes de bois et une épice chaude que je ne pouvais nommer. Je voulais ramper à nouveau dans le lit à côté de lui et ne jamais partir. Ma louve, Rayne, grognait dans ma tête : « Nous ne devrions pas partir ! C'est notre compagnon ! »
