Ron Jeremy Pennis

O que acontece com uma esposa perfeita? Depois de sete anos de casamento, sou conhecida como a esposa perfeita. Amo meu marido Ron, e sempre achei que nosso casamento era perfeito, exceto pela falta de um herdeiro. No entanto, em nosso sétimo aniversário, meu marido me disse que minha irmã mais nova, Gina, estava grávida de um filho dele. Nesse momento, sinto meu mundo desabar! Fui freneticamente ao apartamento de Gina para perguntar por que ela estava tentando acabar com meu casamento, apenas para vê-la agarrando a barriga enquanto estava deitada no chão com dor, e fui presa como assassina. "Me deixem sair! Quero ver meu marido!" Na prisão, descobri que estava grávida. Estava ansiosa para contar a notícia ao meu marido, mas o punhal de Gina veio em vez disso. No momento da morte, gritei do fundo do meu coração: estou disposta a pagar qualquer preço pela vingança. Quando abri os olhos novamente, Ron estava me pedindo para ir ao funeral. O que está acontecendo? Estou de volta à minha casa? Peguei meu telefone e olhei a data. Era sete dias antes do nosso 7º aniversário. Sim, eu renasci, e desta vez não deixarei isso acontecer novamente. Todos aqueles que me traírem devem ser punidos. Mas por que há um homem perigoso me seguindo?

Jeremy Blake was a washed-up actor whose biggest claim to fame was dying in a toothpaste ad. Then he died for real……and woke up in the corpse of a disgraced noble in a magic-riddled medieval world. Now trapped in Lord Audric Solvane’s body with a stab wound, crushing debts, and a suspiciously gorgeous widow….Jeremy has no script, no backup, and no idea what he’s doing. Well, almost no idea. Armed with two absurd powers: • Prop Master = lets him recreate any object he’s held (even the embarrassing ones), • Method Actor = lets him shapeshift into anyone… at the risk of losing his own identity, …Jeremy must bluff his way through politics, cults, curses, and resurrection scandals. His only ally? Glyph, a glitchy, Gen Z-style AI from the 23rd century embedded in his brain~and judging his life choices in real time. But the deeper Jeremy goes, the more the world feels… scripted. His death wasn’t random. His rebirth wasn’t a miracle. And the people around him? They’re playing roles too. Because this isn’t just another second chance. It’s a cosmic production, and Jeremy wasn’t cast to be the hero. He was the understudy…for a story that already failed once.

``` Penny tem três irmãos: um é um bilionário CEO, o segundo é o tenente militar mais jovem e o último é um ator de sucesso. Esses três homens de sucesso tinham apenas uma coisa em comum: intimidar Penny, a pequena irmã que era um verdadeiro incômodo. A irmã que eles nunca quiseram ter e a que alegava ser a verdadeira irmã deles, enquanto a irmã que tanto valorizaram todo esse tempo era uma farsa. Após viver uma vida de maus-tratos na casa de sua tia, algumas pessoas de alto escalão vieram até Penny com notícias sobre sua verdadeira origem. Ela pensou que finalmente estava salva do domínio de sua tia, sem saber que o que a aguardava era pior. Aos 13 anos, Penny só desejava uma coisa: que seus irmãos a amassem e a tratassem como família, tanto quanto amavam a irmã falsa. Ela trabalhou e estudou dez vezes mais do que qualquer outro apenas para ser aceita por eles. Em seu desespero, ela caiu tola em uma armadilha armada por uma pessoa mal-intencionada, sem saber que suas ações resultariam na queda de seus irmãos e nela acabando na cadeia com uma sentença de morte. No dia de sua execução, Penny tinha apenas um pensamento em mente: Se ela pudesse voltar no tempo, que seus irmãos mimassem a irmã falsa o quanto quisessem! Ela não queria mais nada com eles! E para sua surpresa, Penny se viu de volta ao dia em que tudo começou: o dia em que nasceu. Como prometido, desta vez, ela não tentaria de forma tola ganhar o amor e afeto de seus irmãos. Que se dane a família! Ela simplesmente faria muito dinheiro, viveria no luxo e faria sua própria família! Mas espere, por que agora que ela não queria mais nada com os irmãos, eles insistiam em se meter em seus assuntos? Eles não deveriam estar mimando a irmã falsa? Por que não a deixam em paz?! E como diabos ela estava casada nesta vida? Para piorar as coisas, este marido que ela nunca teve em sua primeira vida estava de repente se oferecendo para ser o pai de seus filhos?! ```

Estos tres hombres exitosos solo tenían un punto en común: hacerle bullying a Penny, su hermanita molesta. La hermana que nunca desearon tener y la que afirmaba ser su verdadera hermana, mientras que la hermana que siempre habían atesorado resultó ser una impostora.

Tal como prometió, esta vez no intentaría tontamente ganarse el amor y el afecto de sus hermanos. ¡Qué importa la familia! Ella solo haría mucho dinero, viviría en el lujo y formaría su propia familia. Pero espera, ¿por qué ahora que no quería tener nada que ver con sus hermanos, ellos seguían metiendo las narices en sus asuntos? ¿No se suponía que debían mimar a su falsa hermana? ¿Por qué no la dejan en paz?! ¿Y cómo es posible que en esta vida estuviera casada? —Para empeorar las cosas, ¿este esposo que nunca tuvo en su primera vida de repente se ofrecía para ser el padre de sus hijos?! ```

He also wants to hold a grandchild. So, wife let's work hard tonight alright?” Luo Huian: Dear Heavens save me, I am a woman of no desire! **** Resisting the temptation take 2: “Do you think he is good looking?” Fan Meilin questioned the woman who stood next to him. Even though he was the one who won the race and the trophy, his wife was looking at the other mer. “Well yes,” Luo Huian, who was an appreciator of beauty, agreed at once. “Why are you asking this though?” Fan Meilin’s eyes flashed as he smiled at her and leaned in closer to her body as he whispered in her ear, “He might be good looking but I am a better driver. Not only on the track but also in bed, do you want to try darling?” Luo Huian: Resist the temptation! At all costs! I am an iron-hearted woman. ***** Resisting the temptation take 3: “Is this necessary?” Luo Huian questioned as she sat on the couch, watching the mer trace his fingers on her curves while she sat in nothing but modern swimwear. The mer nodded as he wrote on his small notepad, “I need to trace every inch of your skin to create my finest creation, so don’t move.” After he finished writing, he handed the notepad to Luo Huian, his fingers brushing against the curve of her bosom, waist and ——— Luo Huian: My virtue is at extreme risk! ** Fl who is trying to do everything to save her virtue from being taken as it would slow down her cultivation X Mls who are trying their best to snatch it from her. *********** Trigger warning: though the book is set in a comedic setting, there might be some uneasy topics that would discuss depression and loneliness. ***********

Alicia Quinn was an AV superstar and also a high-class courtesan who only dated billionaires and global elites. In secret, of course. They’d bark and howling just to have a wonderful night with her. On the outside, she appeared to be the happiest woman ever lived. Many women and men were jealous of all the wealth that she had after literally slaving herself in the industry since she graduated from the orphanage. She has everything that humans could ever wish for; money, multi million houses, luxury cars, you name it. But the truth is, she never felt real happiness, ever. Unbeknownst to anyone, she succumbed to severe depression. After nearly a decade of antidepressants abuse and a destructive lifestyle of drug use along with alcohol, something was developing inside her body until it was far too late to fix—Breast cancer. It was already at the fourth stage when she got diagnosed. She has no family, or even a close friend whom she could bequeath all of her wealth to. Knowing that death had knocked the door, she donated every penny, every asset under her name to the World Cancer Research Fund. Before she died, however, Alicia muttered her last words; “I wish, I could be reborn as a man, and fuck every hot chick in the world!” Due to her selfless act of donating all of her fortune, Goddess of Pleasure Lilithya granted her wish to live a second life. She offered Alicia multiple choice for her next life. However, she picked one particular choice which intrigued her the most. [Reborn as a Demon Queen; Pro: Absolute immunity to STDs, nearly infinite vitality and stamina, god-level strength, able to shoot lasers from the eyes, and so on. Cons: Being hunted by the hero’s party.] “It doesn't sound too bad. At least, I could live in freedom and do anything I wished for before the hero’s party cut my head off. A perfect ending for a sinner like me. Demon Queen it is then…” However, Goddess Lilithya knew her deepest desire. Just like that, Alicia has been reborn as a Demon Queen with a big D! Yes, you read it right my fellow men and women of culture. She became Demon Queen with a coxk. When push comes to shove, Alicia has no choice but to live with it. That said, will she be able to endure the endless cycle of arousal and constantly in heat while managing her Demon’s Kingdom?

In 1972, a groundbreaking discovery by Herbert Boyer and Stanley Cohen in genetic engineering, where they created the first transgenic organisms by inserting a resistance gene into an E. coli plasmid, sparked both immense scientific excitement and public backlash. While many hailed it as a monumental step forward, others protested, fearing humanity was "playing God." Amidst this controversy, Jeremy Karlson, a renowned paleontologist, recognized the profound potential of Boyer and Cohen's work. He saw it as a means to achieve something unprecedented: bringing dinosaurs back to life. Jeremy, accompanied by his wealthy step-brother Jake, who offered to fully fund the ambitious project, met with Boyer and Cohen. Jeremy revealed that during an expedition in Alaska, his team had discovered a perfectly preserved, 17,000-year-old juvenile dire wolf with intact organs, from which they successfully extracted degraded DNA. He believed that with Boyer and Cohen's expertise in transgenic technology, they could use this DNA, and by extension, potentially dinosaur DNA, to resurrect extinct creatures. Initially hesitant and skeptical of the audacious proposition, Boyer and Cohen were eventually swayed by Jeremy's unwavering confidence and the sheer magnitude of the idea. With Jake's financial backing and Jeremy's bold vision, they agreed to collaborate. The project, estimated to take four to five years, aimed to apply the nascent field of genetic engineering to the realm of paleontology, promising to reshape the world in an unimaginable way. As they left, Jeremy mused that when their success became public, the world would be irrevocably divided.

I’m Daniel — just your average shy gym rat who prefers dumbbells over drama. I’m low-level in life: no clout, no girls, no game… Until she showed up. Ilil. The goth baddie with curly black hair, quiet stares, demon-tier thighs, and a chest that makes gravity weep. She’s got a simp army following her like it’s religion — including her obsessive ex Pavel, who treats her like property. Everyone wants her. I somehow pulled her. Now I’ve got enemies, simps, drama, and her four chaotic besties trying to "test" me like I’m a damn shoujo protagonist. Add in my clueless boys Ron and Gal, teachers who lowkey ship us, and one massive high school war between gym bros and simps… This ain't your average romcom. This is war. And I’m fighting it all for her. My goth girl

A world overrun with beasts and gates. Strange powers, classes, levels, laws, concepts... Jeremy wakes up in this world, with strange memories. He will become a villain, bring death and destruction, conquer planets, solar systems, galaxies, universes and more. How? Through his army of undead and aberrations. They will try to stop him, but he is an OP protagonist, so no problem. ----- Transcend every Realm, Dimension, Reality, rule over all that exists. For what reason? “Just for the pleasure of doing it. Just because I know I can do it.” The voice was deep, but as warm as the sun rising after years of darkness His gaze was fixed on a distant point, lost beyond the horizon. There where it had all begun. “Also-” he continued, as his army of undead, reflected in his smile as sharp as broken glass, stared at him in silence “Who could possibly stop us?” But their silence was simply a prelude to something grand. Like the calm before the storm- After those words, like a wave crashing on the shore, the army of undead exploded- Inhuman and shrill screams, hoarse whispers, dry crunching of bones. But most startling were the sounds of musical instruments that accompanied it all. A true symphony of death. In the future, anyone who heard that sound would be overcome with terror. #Undead #Necromancer #Summons #Skeleton

Time froze for a moment as he took a deep breath looking deep into her eyes. His throat bobbed. He never realized all these years how he thirsted for her. But he knew... More than anyone that she was off limits. She's his best friend's little sister and at the same time his little brother's best friend. "Ace and Jeremy are going to kill me..." he thought in defeat. But he didn't really care about that. What bothered him the most was that he knew that winter only saw him as a brother and that, to him, cuts deeper than a knife.

Sequel: Revenge of the Fallen It all started with her laugh. Not the blood. Not Rosalie’s whispers. Not the dreams where the forest burned with an unquenchable fire. No. Jeremy first felt like he had a heart the moment he heard her laugh. Julie. The girl who, in the school hallways, was like light—drawing people in, dazzling them, leaving them wanting more. Everyone knew her, but that didn’t mean anyone truly knew who she was. And certainly, no one could have guessed that he—the quiet, strange boy with a past no one understood—would become something more than just a shadow in the background. They didn’t know he would fall in love with her. And he didn’t know that such a feeling would attract the attention of someone far more dangerous. Rosalie saw everything. Their glances, the brush of their hands, that first smile exchanged during the long break by the coffee machine. To her, Julie was nothing but dust. An obstacle. Trash to be removed. Jeremy was hers. He was hers. Since they were children. And no one—absolutely no one—had the right to come near him.
