From Fake Dreams

The CEO’s Fake Bride

A fake marriage. A real past. And a future neither of them saw coming. When rising violinist Noelle Tanaka loses her sister in a tragic accident, she's left with the one thing she can't afford to lose—custody of her five-year-old niece, Emi. But with no husband, no steady income, and a past riddled with mistakes, the court sees her as unfit to raise a child. Enter Micah Lin—Seattle's youngest tech CEO and the man who still believes she betrayed him six years ago. He makes her an offer she can't refuse: a one-year marriage contract. No strings. No feelings. Just appearances. But living under the same roof isn't as simple as signing papers. Not when old chemistry sparks behind closed doors. Not when trust was shattered and never rebuilt. And definitely not when someone is determined to expose their lie. As the custody hearing looms, the lines blur between performance and reality. Because somewhere between court dates and bedtime stories, fake begins to feel dangerously real. What if the biggest lie isn't their marriage—but how little they pretend to care? It all started with a phone call that changed everything. The phone rang at 3:47 AM. --- Perfect for readers who crave emotionally charged romance, slow-burn tension, and second chances that hurt just enough to feel real. Tropes: Fake Marriage • Second Chance Romance • Forced Proximity • Custody Battle • Billionaire Hero • Slow Burn Heat Level: Moderate Triggers: Loss of parent/sibling, custody battle, emotional manipulation

Fake Date, Real Fate

"Block him." "He's technically still my boss." "Then block him with dignity." The call ended again. And then started again. I let out a sound somewhere between a growl and a sob, then finally answered with the enthusiasm of a snail crawling through salt. "Yes, Mr. Walton?" "Have you changed your mind yet?" I collapsed onto the towel and gazed at the sky as though it might consume me entirely if I pleaded sweetly enough. "Do you ever take a break?" I asked, shielding my eyes with one hand. "You're avoiding the question." "Because it's a dumb question." He exhaled, the sound sharp and irritated even over phone. "It's not a dumb question. It's a business offer." "It's a weird offer-one that I already said no to." There was a brief pause, and I could practically hear him clenching his jaw through the speaker. "You are acting unreasonably." " Unreasonable?" I sat up. "I'm not the one drafting fake girlfriend contracts like it's a normal Tuesday." "Isabella-" "Certainly not, Mr. Walton." I mimicked his tone perfectly. "I told you I'm not doing it. You need to find someone else to play pretend with." SYNOPSIS Isabella Miller thought saying no to her boss’s fake dating offer was the end of the story. But Adrien Walton doesn’t take no—especially not when he’s convinced she’s a gold digger. Suddenly, her student loans are piling up, her father’s vet clinic is on the brink of eviction and her brother is about to be kicked out of college. Coincidence? She thinks not. Adrien Walton is calm, calculating—and he's just pulled every string to corner Isabella into the perfect position. Now she’s stuck choosing between pride and survival. So she agrees to his offer: be his fake girlfriend. No feelings attached. No drama. Just business. Or so she thought. "Conference Room B. Fifteen minutes," he said, passing by without a glance. The folder he pushed across the table landed with a thud. I opened it. The contract. All of it. --- Enemies to lovers? Check. Slow burn? Hmmnyea. Banter so sharp it might file your nails? Yes. Delicious workplace tension? Of course. Tension that could melt steel?Absolutely. Smut?? Wanna find out? Welcome to corporate romance warfare. There’s no escaping this contract.

The Dragon of Dreams

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: This novel is being rewritten. Later chapters have a much higher level of quality, but the beginning is pretty rough. Feel free to join the discord if you wish to ask active readers about anything! Synopsis: This is the story of a young man who was reincarnated as a dragon with a near-insatiable curiosity. Initially sparked by questioning his own reincarnation, he quickly gets lost in the endless world of magic, using his deep understanding of advanced sciences to learn the laws and properties of a new type of energy known as mana. However, soon enough, the table would flip, and he would begin using that very same energy to expand his knowledge of science, to the point that he would begin questioning his own understanding of the world. Although not his original intention, with the combination of his intelligence, expanding curiosity, and the 'miracles' that occurred to allow for his existence, he quickly found himself climbing the mountain of strength as if it were a small hill before eventually climbing to a point where it seemed as if he himself was the peak itself. Even if.. that was never the case... - There is mild gore, and profanity is 'censored' toward the beginning, but not later in the story. - Tags: Action, Discovery, Adventure, Fantasy, Sci-fi Sub Tags: Reincarnation, Magic, Non-Human Lead, (Extremely) OP Protagonist, Mystery - New Chapter twice a week, on Monday and Wednesday at 1:30 PM EST!

System of Dreams

In the quiet rural village of Seongcheon, South Korea, lives a boy named Joon, whose world is filled with manhwa, anime, and novels. With no clear path ahead and no real prospects, Joon often dreams of a life filled with purpose, ambition, and adventure. He longs for the kind of power his fictional heroes possess — a System that could change everything. One evening, that wish is granted. A glowing, floating System Window appears before him — not inside a phone or computer, but in midair, responding only to him. It offers a life-altering opportunity: the ability to choose any profession and master it from scratch. With no one else aware or involved, Joon is the only system user in the world. He selects his first class: Trader — the art of buying and selling stocks, navigating markets, and building wealth from knowledge and strategy. Starting with ₩500,000 in capital and a beginner’s toolkit of stats like Market Insight and Negotiation, Joon takes his first step into a reality-bending journey of XP, quests, and mastery. From studying charts late into the night to executing risky trades with trembling hands, he gains XP one task at a time, leveling up and earning precious stat points. Every action matters. Every reward is earned. And every coin spent is tracked. But this is only the beginning. With the power to one day become anything — from a footballer to a scientist, a chef to a tycoon — Joon must use his wits, will, and wisdom to ascend, all while keeping his System a secret. This is a tale of dreams made real — one profession, one quest, one chapter at a time.
