Hella Heels

Between Work And Screens

Elliot Hale had always preferred the shadows. At work, he was practically invisible: the man who quietly turned chaos into order without asking for praise. No one remembered his birthday, and his desk was strategically tucked into the corner of an open-plan office, like a detail everyone had forgotten about halfway through designing the building. And that was fine with him. Being overlooked meant being safe. But online, in the quiet hum of his favorite forum, he wasn’t invisible. He wasn’t “that guy from the finance department.” He was “TailoredTips,” the anonymous go-to guru for anyone in need of advice. Love troubles? He’d solved them. Wardrobe crises? He’d turned fashion disasters into triumphs. A friend’s floundering confidence? Restored with a few typed words. It was the one place where he could say what he truly thought, uncensored and unapologetic. That’s where he first met her. Of course, he hadn’t known it was her at the time. The woman who called herself “Vee” on the forum was smart, funny, and refreshingly candid. She spoke about her life as if she were untangling a knot no one else could see, venting about her “unruly employees” or her endless schedule of social events. But beneath her polished tone, Elliot could sense her loneliness, her need for something real in a world that expected perfection. For weeks, they talked. First in public threads, then in private messages. Their connection was instant and electric, sparking late-night conversations that blurred the line between strangers and confidants. He became her anchor, her secret adviser. And every time she asked him to meet in person, he gently deflected, keeping the fragile boundary between their two worlds intact. Because Vee wasn’t just anyone. She was Victoria Langley, the CEO of his company. The woman whose voice could silence a room. The woman who, just hours ago, had stood in the center of their office, sharp heels clicking against the marble floor as she delivered a scathing critique of his department’s latest report. She hadn’t even glanced his way. Why would she? He was nobody to her. And yet, that same evening, she had messaged him online, desperate for advice on what to wear to a gala, thanking him for being her “lifeline” when no one else seemed to understand her. Elliot stared at the glowing screen of his laptop, his heart thudding in his chest. He should stop. This was dangerous. Reckless. Every time he gave her advice—every time he offered her a piece of himself—he was tightening a noose around his own neck. But then she sent another message. Vee: “I don’t know what I’d do without you. Sometimes I think you’re the only person who really sees me.” His fingers hovered over the keyboard, trembling. He typed out a reply. TailoredTips: “I’m just glad I can help. You’re stronger than you think, Vee.” He hit send and leaned back in his chair, exhaling slowly. Two lives. Two versions of himself. And one impossible secret. Elliot knew it was only a matter of time before his world came crashing down.

Second Take On Romance - The A-List Actor Wants Me

One sunny day, Shen Jingwei, a Z-list actor, received an opportunity to attend an open-call audition the very next day. It was for the role of an antagonist in a new BL C-Drama, "Dance Of The Dragons", which was adapted from a novel of the same title. He agreed to join the audition due to several factors, among which his manager's threat to jump off the 20th floor, his dire need for money, and also the fact that his rank in the film industry could not go any lower. One look at the panel of judges made him want to turn on his heel to leave, but it was all too late. Because who would expect the poor Z-List actor to meet his mortal enemy/ex-boyfriend, Yan Renzhong, the A-List Actor responsible for his decline long before he even learned how to fly? ------------------ "You and I... are playing a couple of lovers, who will go on to get married and have children with each other." Shen Jingwei could sense blood coming up his throat. What was the point of saying it out loud, again? "Yes," he forced himself to agree nonetheless. Yan Renzhong pinned him with a stare. "We have unresolved issues from the past. I hope you won't let them affect your and my performance in the drama. Act the professional you are supposed to be." "..." "And don't call me 'Emperor Yan' anymore." Yan Renzhong left after delivering one blow after another, not even waiting to see if Shen Jingwei succumbed to his injuries or not. What? Whattt? Whattttttttt?

Husband With Benefits

Nora is shattered a month before her wedding when she uncovers her fiancé's deceitful affair. As she manages this betrayal, she discovers a deep ploy to hinder her from claiming her rightful inheritance. Devastated but determined, Nora takes a daring step to regain control of her life. Enter Demetri 'The Demon' to those who know him, a formidable man barely known to her, who offers her protection and support in return for a contract marriage to satisfy him. In a twist of fate, Nora marries Demetri to claim her inheritance and fight those who plotted against her. But as she battles her own family and Demetri's many rivals, will she be able to keep from falling for the man known to crush people beneath his booted heel. Excerpt: She had forgotten that the man was intimidating and directly challenged him. Rather than speaking, Demetri rose from his seat and approached her deliberately. Although it was a mere few steps, time seemed to stretch for Nora. When he was almost within touching distance, his hand gently landed on her knee, moving it sideways. His touch moved with a hint of a caress, and he stepped between her open legs. Nora sat there in frozen silence, her eyes wide like a deer caught in headlights. Catching her chin between his fingers, he tilted her face upwards and spoke unhurriedly," You are my wife." She nodded her head slowly in affirmation while his thumb slowly traced her lip. "I have given you time to gather your emotions." Another nod. Nora's nervousness made her lick her lips, acutely aware of his intense gaze fixed upon them. "Your reason for the marriage was to secure your inheritance and get away from under your mother's thumb." "Yes..." Nora whispered in confusion. Her confusion was not about his statement but about the bewildering sensations coursing through her. What was happening with her? "It's time for you to fulfil your end of the contract, yes?" He continued. "Yes," Nora whispered breathlessly. Why was she breathless? Had the oxygen level in the house dropped? Was the air suddenly thinning? Abruptly, his hand left her face, and she watched as he drew closer. It was then that Nora comprehended what was unfolding. All those tantalizing, heart-pounding kisses she had read about in novels were about to possibly become her reality. But the anticipated kiss didn't happen. Instead, he paused near her and commanded, "Kiss me."

System Override

In a world where destiny is dictated by an all-powerful AI, Kael was supposed to be erased. Branded a Glitch, a rogue anomaly immune to the System’s control, Kael awakens with fragmented memories of a life spent mastering death. Once a mercenary who sought forbidden knowledge, now a hunted outcast, Kael’s survival hinges on a single impossible truth: he remembers a world before the System. But this isn’t a tale of rebellion—it’s one of control. Forced into an uneasy alliance with Aya, a sharp-tongued hacker who distrusts him as much as she needs him, Kael plunges into the Underveil, a network of rebels seeking to overthrow the System. Yet their mission is no noble crusade; betrayal lurks within every shadow. With the Purifiers—elite enforcers of the System—relentlessly on his heels, Kael must choose between manipulating his new allies or trusting them with his fractured past. The only salvation lies in the myth of transmigration, a whispered legend promising escape from the System’s omnipotence. But the path to freedom demands everything Kael has left—his strength, his humanity, and the truths he has buried deep within his soul. As he uncovers the System’s terrifying purpose, Kael will be forced to confront a brutal reality: to save the world, he may have to become the monster he swore to destroy. "Freedom isn’t free. Control is an illusion. And Kael’s choice will determine the fate of more than just himself—it will decide the future of a broken world."

Eternal Love on the Soundtrack

She's afraid of the dark, he embodies it. Most say her dresses are too tight, her heels too tall. She laughs too loud, cries too much, and smokes like her life depends on it, and in some ways it does. Little do they know, it’s just a sparkly disguise, there to hide one panic attack at a time. "As long as they were looking at my body, they'd never see what was behind my eyes." No one can see through Deyana Cabrera's facade—not until he comes along. Some know him as an emotionless player, his nature as cold as the heart of ice in his chest. He changed through his girlfriends like they were underwear. But that was only because all the ladies loved the way he strummed his guitar when he and his rock band, "Celestia", would perform their electrifying songs on stage. With a tendency to pick order and class as his companion, Alexei "Alex" Morozova has never been tempted to veer off course. But perhaps one should never say never... One autumn night and their lives intertwine. She hates him—his arrogance and habit of never taking anything or anyone seriously—but over the years, even as their games consist of insulting each other’s looks and intelligence, she begins to live to play with him. Nowhere in Alexei’s plans had he ever prepared for Deyana. She’s chaos embodied—not at all his type—but that can never stop his eyes from following her wherever she goes. Together they fight to defeat the world's most evil demons in human skin. In a battle against corruption, darkness, and the monsters lurking beneath the surface, Deyana and Alexei are forced to face the unthinkable. But while they fight side by side, Alexei has no idea that he’s become her greatest obsession—the one person who dominates her every thought, even as she hides it beneath a mask of indifference.
