Stepmother Taboo

Wishbound

In a world shaped by divine law, living wishes, and silent gods, Hari Mikamo is an anomaly a man with no ambition, no allegiance, and no desire for power. At 28, he’s just trying to keep his daughter safe in the slums of the central region of Liv, Virelia, where the strong exploit the weak and even survival comes at a cost. But when a city riot pulls Hari into the public eye, his rare strength and unshakable will draws the attention of Queen Sophia Doyle, one of the most feared leaders in Liv. Against his instincts and a proposal he couldn’t deny, Hari is forced into an elite academy where enforcers of divine law are trained killers, mages, and zealots molded to keep Liv in order by any means.  Among strangers and enemies, Hari forms an uneasy bond with two unlikely allies: Amari Abara, a brilliant spellcaster hiding more pain than power Andre Cruz, a Sika boy mocked for his race and delusions of grandeur, carrying a sword tied to legends no one believes Together, they are swept into a world of ancient spells, cursed bloodlines, and the cruel magic of Nous a force that grants miracles at the price of taboo. But in Liv, every wish forms a taboo. And Hari, the man with no wish, may need to discover one in order to protect his daughter.  Because some men don’t rise to change the world. Some are dragged into it clawing, bleeding, and bound by love. I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com.

Transmigrated as the Stepmother of a Rebellious Heir

Shu Wan, the most outstanding daughter of a high-status family from a feudal dynasty, travels a thousand years into the future, becoming the new lady of the Fu family in the capital. ------ Her husband in name has gone overseas to explore markets, leaving behind a rebellious son whose name resounds throughout the capital. ------ Upon first meeting, the rebellious son speeds past on a motorcycle with his silver-white hair flying, "Isn't that my stepmother who's 6 years older than me? Skinny arms and legs, but with grand ambitions." Before he finishes, Shu Wan leaps up and plucks him off the motorcycle with one hand, "Watch your mouth." ------ Fu Yang is consistently at the bottom of his grade, especially with his Chinese language scores never passing 50. Shocked by his atrociously written exam papers, Shu Wan asks, "Are you even Chinese?" Fu Yang is defiant, "Aren't you a dimwitted academic failure yourself, what right do you have to criticize me?" Yet the next second, as Shu Wan smoothly writes down 'Ancient Prose Paragon' with a brush, it's Fu Yang's turn to be astonished. Isn't she a walking dictionary? ------ Fu Siyu returns from his overseas expansion earlier than expected, thinking he would come home to chaos. However, upon entering the door, he sees the usually defiant Fu Yang sitting obediently practicing his calligraphy with a perfect score exam paper beside him. And his reputedly timid wife, in a sleek black high-slit dress, confidently struts to the music, drawing the attention of everyone. But none of that is the focal point. The focus is on Fu Siyu's gaze, sharp as a knife, directed toward the dance partner's hand resting on Shu Wan's lower back, "Let go." Note: The son is not the biological child of the male lead.
