[Matured Content] In a world of gods and Faes. Isadora Skaldwood was born a Fae but of impure blood “mannfae” deemed an inferior creation of the olden gods. Yet at birth she was kissed by the goddess of life and blessed with the ability of a skin weaver, capable of healing any wound or affliction. Betrayed by her family, she's sold for gain, shipped across the world to a brothel, into the hands of a selfish businessman who exploited her abilities for years. Travelers come to this brothel not to lay with the rumored mannfae but to seek her abilities. But then everything changed when “He” appeared… Kraven Val Thrond, widely known as “The Reaper," a terrifying warrior feared by those who dared speak his name. Dangerously handsome, a presence identical to the god of death, silver eyes like the crescent moon—but a mind dipped in madness. Isadora despises him, not just for stealing her away, but for thrusting her into his world of blood and chaos. He’s insane! But that’s only the cherry on top, his obsession is wicked. But when he touches her, mix emotions and desires stirs, can a madman feel something? Of course not! He's more inclined to kill her than succumb to his desires. He has this "Thirst" and it triggers mostly toward her. Just a kiss is a clear invitation toward death and when he touches her... she might greet the god of death soon. Have the gods damned her again? They had thrown a Dark Fae toward her way who's obsessed with owning her soul. But in life, only a mate can claim another soul. ~ (Excerpt) "What do you even want from me?" Isadora asked, this time more desperate. "The answer to that question, love," he leaned more until their lips almost touched. "I really wish there was one," he murmured, before crashing his lips against hers. Sparks surged through her in waves, but she bit his lip, hard enough to draw blood. The action seemed to make him stop and she pushed away from him. Kraven licked his lips, amused and a maddening look in his eyes. "Go away!" she yelled at him, tears almost building in her eyes. Why was he making her feel this way? Hatred burned through her veins and yet torn between this was an undeniable pull. "I will, love.." he replied with a dangerous edge to his tone and an eerily glow to his silver eyes. "If you can outrun me, first..." he added, taking a step closer and she instinctively took one back. "Run, Isadora..." he growled, his voice raw and animalistic, like a beast on the verge of unleashing wrath. "...run!" ~ A/N: This is Dark Romance, don't expect a sweet ML!

The great scientist and mathematician Isaac Newton never thought that the most puzzling case in his life would be finding himself in the body of a novel villainess-the renowned Lady Isadora Valemont. Thrown into the intricately complex, unforgiving world of "Chronicles of Veloria", Newton will have to play the wolf in sheep's skin in the cruel politics of the court, repair broken relationships, and outsmart those who have committed themselves to seeing the end of Isadora. As he pieces together the rules of this fantastical realm, Newton finds out that not only is he stuck in a story but also that he is even being manipulated by the mysterious author of the book-a figure that will stop at nothing to see the plot through as so ordained. The only way he can return to his own world is to unravel what the author wants, avoid the death flags standing over Isadora's fate, and rewrite how the story ends. With an unparalleled mind and a fresh perspective on human connections, Newton tries to mold Isadora's legacy from that of a villainess into that of a respected leader, while also navigating the emotions and societal expectations of his unfamiliar role. But with every step, the line between fiction and reality blurs, and Newton realizes that the price of escaping this world may be higher than he is willing to pay. Will the greatest mind in history outwit the hand of the author that is omnipotent, or fall victim to the tragedy predetermined in the tale?

Capitolo 1 Lady Isadora, un'affascinante giovane aristocratica, passeggiava nel giardino di Kensington, circondata da aiuole fiorite e alberi secolari. Il sole del pomeriggio filtrava tra le foglie, creando un gioco di ombre sul sentiero. Isadora amava quel luogo; era il suo rifugio segreto, dove poteva sognare e riflettere lontano dagli sguardi curiosi della sua famiglia. Ma oggi, la sua mente era occupata da pensieri contrastanti. Da un lato c'era Lord Nicholas, un giovane affascinante con un sorriso disarmante e un'intelligenza acuta. Dall'altro, c'era Hastings, il potente duca di Waverley, noto per la sua determinazione e il suo carattere tenace. Entrambi erano su pretendenti, entrambi avevano catturato la sua attenzione. “Isadora!” chiamò una voce, interrompendo i suoi pensieri. Era Lady Margaret, la sua migliore amica, con un'espressione vivace sul volto. “Ho sentito voci di un ballo a palazzo la prossima settimana. Dovremmo andarci!” “Un ballo?” rispose Isadora, i suoi occhi brillavano di curiosità. “Senza dubbio, sarà l’occasione perfetta per incontrare Lord Nicholas e il duca.” Margaret, divisa tra l'eccitazione e la preoccupazione, smise di camminare. “Spero che tu non scelga Hastings. È affascinante, ma è anche molto ambizioso. Potrebbe non essere il partito giusto per te.” Isadora sorrise, ma il suo cuore batteva forte. “Nicholas è un gentiluomo, ma c’è qualcosa in Hastings che mi attrae; la sua forza, la sua presenza… è difficile da spiegare. Ma come posso scegliere, quando entrambi gli uomini sembrano interessati a me?” Lady Margaret, prendendo la mano di Isadora, lo fece con affetto. “Ricorda, cara amica, che non è solo il tuo cuore a dover decidere, ma anche la tua mente. Ascolta ciò che senti veramente.” Mentre le due ragazze si allontanavano verso casa, Isadora sentì un misto di emozione e incertezza. La danza tra il dovere e il desiderio era appena cominciata.*

Isadora always liked her name. It was a gorgeous, unique title for her among her friends, especially in their era as it was both authentic and prestigious. However, what she did not know was that this name had a huge history behind it. One day, after an unfortunate incident, Isadora found herself in a familiar yet strange place. She was vaguely aware at that moment— She was not in the same world she had been living in before. This gave her a brief idea, a theory about how her life would be from that moment onward. But everything was not what she had expected it to be. Instead of simply living in another world, Isadora was forced into an adventure of hopping to several worlds after it. In each of them, she felt herself being thrown amidst the angry, sharp fangs of the beasts around her. Despite that, a voice helped her to go through these worlds as she avenged those people she took over their bodies. [Who am I?] The owner of the voice's identity was just another mystery she wanted to solve along the way. “Yes, who are you?” [I have many names, many lives, and many things that I can answer this with… How about you know after we clear the next world?] Thus, not just to find out how to stop that cycle of transmigration she found herself in, but to also know that person better, Isadora confidently walked her path, dethroning anyone who stood in her way. The only question that had never left Isadora was, ‘At the end of this never-ending cycle, would I be able to rest and know who you are?’

Who would've thought that men didn't like women who are more than them in almost every aspect?--well, maybe not every aspect. I don't like fights and bloods and lifting heavy objects. Those were man-jobs. Anyhow, going back to what I was previously talking about, I've gotten all these successes and now I am twenty-two and past the marriageable age! All hope were lost until a letter from a certain Count Astor asking my hand for marriage arrived. I didn't want to at first but one thing's for sure, I don't want to die an old maid! I want a family--a doting husband and lovely children. If I don't marry now, I might have trouble conceiving later. Okay, Isa... Deep breaths. Deep, deep breaths and... breathe out. Why don't you come navigate this new life I've decided to embark on with me? See if I made the right choice--or if he made the right choice marrying me.
