Mary Fitzroy Duchess Of Richmond And Somerset

La rumeur voulait que Xaviera Evans ait une constitution faible — une beauté maladive. La rumeur voulait qu'elle dépense une fortune chaque jour en médicaments — en les dévorant comme des bonbons. La rumeur voulait que chaque jour, dix serviteurs attendaient à son chevet — une charge pour tout le monde. Ils attendaient tous que la famille Evans jette Xaviera Evans de retour à la campagne et la laisse se débrouiller seule. Xaviera Evans : "On dit partout que je suis faible et incapable de prendre soin de moi. Apparemment, je dépense aussi de l'argent de manière inconsidérée." Elle regardait sa chemise en loques et était exaspérée. Xaviera Evans : “On veut dire que cette riche famille laisse leur fille porter des vêtements en lambeaux tous les jours ?” La fille riche de la famille Evans ? Elle en avait assez ! Elle ne le serait plus ! Alors... Le sale type : "Sans la famille Evans, tu n'es rien." Xaviera Evans : "Si je suis expulsée de la famille Evans, je suis fichue." La sale fille : "Sœur, ne sois pas trop déçue. Tant que tu travailles dur, on te fera des éloges un jour.” Xaviera Evans : "Tais-toi, je ne connais pas un traître comme toi." Le sale type et la fille : "???" La rumeur voulait que le plus jeune fils de la famille Mamet, Caleb Mamet, ait imprudemment marié une femme qui n'avait que des apparences. Xaviera Evans : "Quelqu'un me méprise-t-il ?" Un jour, Xaviera Evans a vu l'un des employés de Caleb Mamet se creusant la tête sur une série de nombres à l'écran de l'ordinateur. Comme elle était libre, elle lui a donné un coup de main. A-t-elle tout simplement piraté le pare-feu créé par les efforts conjugués des meilleurs pirates informatiques de l'élite ?! Caleb Mamet s'est rapproché pas à pas. "Xaviera, que me caches-tu encore ? Hmm ?" Xaviera Evans : "Oh, non ! Je me sens encore prise de vertiges ! Je suis si faible. Ce corps est tout simplement trop faible !"

"Chéri, je n'en peux plus, je me sens terrible..." "Bébé, sois sage, finis ce médicament." Le bel homme enlace la femme dans ses bras, la cajole doucement pendant qu'il lui donne le médicament. Joanna Lawrence tombe sur Ashton Heath, le scion le plus estimé de toute la ville de Closia, et finit par passer la nuit avec lui. Après qu'il lui a offert des avantages en échange de leur mariage, la nouvelle Mme Heath a soudainement le pouvoir d'avoir tout ce qu'elle a toujours souhaité. "Chéri, j'ai giflé la reine du cinéma Faye aujourd'hui, est-ce que j'ai été trop loin?" "Bébé, ta main te fait mal ? Laisse-moi la masser pour toi." "Chéri, j'ai atteint la limite de ta carte de crédit, es-tu en colère ?" "Bébé, es-tu contente de ton achat ? Fais-moi savoir quand tu en auras besoin de plus." "Chéri, je suis fatiguée aujourd'hui, je ne veux pas bouger..."

New trope (please try it, rewritten on 24.01.2024): Micheal von Shelb, a lazy genius with a penchant for offbeat inventions, wakes up to a brutal truth: he’s a side character in a multiverse of twisted romantic dramas where his family, future children, and even his legacy are casually erased by power-hungry authors. With Magda, his intelligent and no-nonsense wife (who’s also a supporting character in a “switched at birth” melodrama), Micheal vows to save their lives, protect their future, and rebuild the Empire through innovation and sheer audacity. Whether he's dodging political plots, perfecting horseless carriages, or making alliances with beastmen, Micheal has one goal: to carve a space where he and Magda can thrive, far from the claws of a cruel narrative. But the fate has other plans. As ancient rivalries between archmages, devils, and mythical creatures like mermaids resurface, Micheal’s quiet dream spirals into chaos. With wit sharper than a rapier and an unstoppable resolve, Micheal proves that even a side character can rewrite the script. Between inventing futuristic solutions and saving the day, Micheal’s true mission is impressing Magda, who may or may not be secretly stalking him from the foyer. Meanwhile, Micheal himself adjusts his routine to catch glimpses of Magda while pretending not to care. An average day in their life: 1:00 PM: Magda: “I must be punctual to observe my husband training in the garden—from my foyer, of course.” 1:15 PM: Micheal: “Must finish the training early to sneak a peek at my wife reading in her study—from the dining hall window. Definitely not creepy.” With its blend of humor, heartfelt romance, and action-packed multiverse chaos, Breaking the Multiverse is a read for those who enjoy clever protagonists, daring inventions, and a relationship that's equal parts banter and devotion—NO HAREM, just one unforgettable wife. The first volume is for the general audience, the second volume is for people who prefer to sip wine as they read. You can start reading from the second volume of you find the first volume too boring. ----- There are three couples: ML (genius, stalker) x FL (prodigy, stalker) 2ML (soldier) x 2FL (knight) 3ML (soldier) x 3FL (a court lady)

My part in the novel concludes with my execution alongside the villainess. But then, to my surprise, I found myself back again. I thought I could change the story. By fulfilling the rightful owner’s wish to be loved, I believed I could bring her back—and find my own through death, the only release I longed for. Like many transmigrators, I escaped my adoptive family and sought out my real one. To my surprise, finding them was easier than I expected, as though fate had paved the way. [Selene Astralyon is my daughter. Anyone who dares harm her will face my wrath.] [I am your older sister. I was born to protect you.] [My lady, run! You must live—you must take revenge.] But nothing comes without a price. If I had known the cost of changing the story, would I still have chosen this path? Or was I already too far gone to turn back?

Damian Moroi is ambitious, philandering, and manipulative—the perfect heir to a powerful Bloodkin family. With sweet words, threats, and sex, he builds his influence among Eryndor's elite youth, planning his future in this technologically advanced world, and the Eldkin Cooperative as a whole. Yet, on the day of his awakening, and his eighteenth birthday, he discovers dangerous secrets about himself, as well as a welcome surprise, when he is targeted by the patriarch of a rival family. Whether these secrets are a boon or a curse, only time will truly tell... but Damian has always had a knack for turning a bad hand around. -------- This novel has none of the bad things, and all of the good things. Probably. There's no NTR or Yuri, and I've created a fantasy/sci-fi type story with new iterations of the classics. Come check it out.

*** Graphic language and descriptions of abuse, and sexual situations*** The beings who created our planet are angry with humanity. To punish us for depleting the Earth's resources and for causing so much pollution these beings froze the planet. No longer does it circle the sun. Half the world is under the sun. Half the world under the moon. A shifter will be chosen to help change everything. This brave shifter finds another with the same goals and together they will take on the biggest factory in what was the U.S. It is a factory so big it has a city built within it. This factory produces the dark side of the world's UV lighting and manufactures artificial food since crops don't grow as fast with UV lighting. They clone and grow meat. This city is the center of all trade and industry within the darkness. It also poisons the air, land, and water by dumping waste. The shifters have to figure out how to take down the CEO and clean up the mess all while dodging those who would seek to harm them. This is a work in progress and will keep evolving as new ideas pop into my brain. Please stick around for the ride with me and make sure the leaves a review. :)

As old secrets, forbidden love, and the ghosts of a life they've both forgotten begin to resurface, they must fight for their place in a world that seeks to keep them apart. With the empire on the brink of war and their enemies circling closer, Marina and Silva must decide whether to follow the paths laid before them or risk everything to uncover the truth about their past-and their future.

In the greater part of human kind there resides an instinct for survival. It is this which can clutch at straws and affect a rescue from them. It is this which can, now and then, outwit fate : Tanith Lee There are moments in life when you don't know what to do. Some of these moments can be good, like when a father holds his first newborn baby for the first time and realises he has no idea what to do. Or when somoene who has worked his entire life without stop finally retires and doesn't know what to do with his free time cause he's never had any. An then there's me, somoene about to have possibly the first of many so called "worst day of my life" as I stare at what is most likely a death sentence. You see for contexe, the world I am in is a little strange. Before you make any assumptions, this isn't an isekai where I get whisked off to some fantasy world to fixe some other peoples problems. At least not completely. The world I am in is strange in the fact that about 75 years ago, give or take one or two, a massive portion of the population vanished without a trace. Freaky I know, but not as freaky as when they came back and brought with them "magic". The laws of physics seemed useless and easy to ignore for these people. They could do incredible things. Flying through the air at unimaginable speeds, shooting fire from their fingers, moving mountains with their power. Even freezing time was within their reach. It was safe to say at this point that the world was going to change forever. Now listening to all this you'd probably say, wait Lucien isn't this awesome? Magic powers and all you have to do is dissapear for a while, isn't that a pretty good trade of? And normally you'd be right, but of the approximately 100 million who dissapeared, only 13 million came back. Not very good odds. Those that came back told stories of what they had to do. The trials they had to pass. Now this isn't some tower climbing story like you probably read in those webnovels. Every trial was unique to the person. Some where easy and some landed you in the 83 million that didn't come back. And naturally like any good fantasy story, the great dissapearance, as we came to call it, didn't happen just once. And so my story begins here, in the middle of the road, 75 years after the first great disappearance, staring into dead space. I would guess that the people who saw me would find me weird, after all I was staring at nothing. But I couldn't be bothered with them right now, and the reason was that I was indeed staring at something. Something that would change my fate forever. [Congratulations challenger] [You have been selected for the trial] [You will be transported in 30 seconds] ... Fuck. Author : this novel does have a system but it's not a leveling system, so if that's what you're looking for, this might not be for you.
