Their love began with a single moment of fate—a carriage accident, a storm, and a silent promise in the palace garden. But in a world where royal blood must never mix with common dust, their secret quickly becomes their curse. When Elise is betrothed to the cunning Prince Raynard of Merodia, a political marriage meant to seal a fragile peace, she must choose between her heart and her duty. But before she can decide, their secret is exposed. Wiliam is arrested, branded a traitor, and cast into the dungeon. Elise is silenced by duty—but not broken. With help from a forbidden resistance known as the Order of the Raven, Elise begins to weave her own game behind the throne. Wiliam escapes, hunted and angry, only to discover an ancient secret that could shatter the kingdom: Elise’s blood may not belong to the royal line at all—but to something older, and far more powerful. As war looms and betrayal festers in the palace halls, Wiliam and Elise must fight not only for each other, but for a kingdom on the brink. Their love may be forbidden—but it might also be the only thing that can save evarra. in a world ruled by crown and dagger, can love rewrite destiny?

I died—and woke up inside a novel I was only halfway through reading. Not as the protagonist. Not even as a decent side character. No, I’ve been reincarnated as Brandy—the arrogant noble brat who gets crushed by the real main character in Chapter 2. And that protagonist? He’s a regressor. This is his second life. He knows every plot twist, hidden treasure, and future threat. And he’s not here to play fair. In his first timeline, he was beaten, betrayed, and broken. Now? He’s out for blood—and my family’s territory is his first target. If I lose, I don’t just lose status. I lose the chance to grow, to fight, to survive. He’ll rise. I’ll fall. Just like in the book. Unless I change the story. I still have Brandy’s memories, noble blood, and now, a fire of my own. This isn’t just his second chance—it’s my first. And now, it’s a race. A race between a hero who knows the future... And a “villain” who refuses to play his role. “He’s the regressor. I’m the rewrite. Let’s see who gets to the top first.”

But will he accept her, or will her hopes of becoming a somebody be all but dashed against the rocks?

Hidden dangers that threaten to wipe out all she ever knew but never really loved. Watch Elise Thorne as she climbs up the ladder to become the fiercest, most powerful lady the world of werewolves has ever known. And if she picks up an Alpha or two along the way, of course that’s a bonus!

“Darling, you are the moon that gave light in my darkest times.” She gave up finding a man who could make her heart skip a beat and fall in love; Hailey Hillson accepted her best friend’s marriage proposal but then changed her mind after hearing another woman say she couldn’t please a man in bed. When it was just a week away from their wedding day, Bryan got back together with his ex-girlfriend Eva Lan. Hailey broke up with Bryan and called off their wedding. But then, she discovered an interesting fact about Eva Lan—she is married. ‘Did her husband know she was cheating on him?’ * After the heartbreak, Hailey focused on completing her LIFE PROJECT. To achieve it, she went overseas, where she came across Vincent Lopez Shen, the CEO of Shen Group Construction Firm, who later offered her a contract to pretend as his mistress to get his wife's attention. As she also had an ulterior motive, she signed the contract without thinking twice. However... What will happen after she lives with Vincent Shen under one roof when he is Eva’s husband—the woman who destroyed her relationship with Bryan? Will Vincent find out her secret regarding her true identity? Would she find out the secret Vincent keeps that is related to her? EXCERPT: “Miss Eva Lan, why won’t you sign the divorce papers if you are happy with someone’s fiancé’s bed?” Glancing at her with disbelief, Bryan turned his head to the woman inside his arm; he asked, “What the hell is this, Eva?” Hailey cut in. “Oh, you didn’t know Miss Lan is a married woman, my dear ex-fiance?” Her words are a bomb to Bryan. “You shut up! Don’t believe her, Bryan! She is just jealous of me because you love me over her!” Hailey scoffed, a playful smile playing on her lips; before she could spout another word, the woman in front of her paled like a ghost. “Vincent, what are you doing here?” Horror, panic, and shock linger on her face to see her husband appear out of nowhere and his arms wrapped around the girl’s waist. Vince shoots a cold glare at his wife, and he feels no familiarity between them. He withdrew his gaze from the two people before them. He turned his head to the woman standing next to him, he looked at her with tenderness in his eyes, and with a loving tone, he asked her, “Darling, who upsets you? Tell me, and I will remove them from your sight in an instant.” Hailey lifted her chin. As her eyes flickered, her cheeks were flushing scarlet red. Coquettishly, she whispered in Vincent's ear, “Darling, Miss Lan bullied me. She said I couldn’t satisfy a man in bed. She told me I didn’t know how to… do that….” Vincent contorted the corners of his mouth and beamed. “That’s interesting.” “What do you mean by that?” she pouted. “What I am trying to say is… You are a fast learner, and all you need is the right partner.” * * * ~Be ready for many twists ~Novel was ENDING at Chapter 400.

In the crumbling halls of Saint Lysandra’s Orphanage, Mikael discovers a door that wasn’t there yesterday, a narrow red door with no handle, only a keyhole shaped like a doll’s eye. No one else seems to notice it. No one except Elise, the quiet girl who never speaks unless it's to deliver warnings no one believes. When strange dreams begin to blur with reality and porcelain dolls whisper secrets in the dark, Mikael realizes the door isn’t just a door, it’s a passage to something much older, something that remembers him. Behind that door lies the Dollhouse: a twisted, ever-shifting world of forgotten memories, cursed children, and crimson dreams that feed on fear. If Mikael wants to survive, and uncover the truth about who he really is, he’ll need to open the door. But some doors were never meant to be opened.

A transfer student shrouded in rumors, Valine planned to survive high school without attachments. But fate had other plans — beginning with a silent girl named Elise, and ending in the rain on a road she was never meant to cross. Then she woke up... in someone else’s childhood. A nameless world. A forgotten character. A story she once read. But this isn’t a fairytale — it’s survival. What began as a second chance slowly twisted into something darker. Abandoned, enslaved, erased — she’s no longer living... just enduring. As the lines blur between fiction and reality, Valine begins to question: Was her first life the punishment? Or is this one the curse? Just when her will to live begins to fade completely, she's sold off to a Duke — a man who may not save her, but might just give her a reason to survive.

Elise has never belonged. Not in the house that treats her like a burden. Not in the school halls where whispers and laughter follow her. And certainly not in a life that feels borrowed—like it was meant for someone else. But everything changes the day she finds the fountain.And a fairy who speaks of a world Elise doesn’t remember... but can’t seem to forget. As reality starts to unravel, Elise finds herself caught between two lives: the one she was forced into, and the one calling her back. But the truth has enemies. And the past has claws

Carson never asked to survive. He was sculpted in silence, sharpened in fire — the byproduct of a forgotten war and a father who sang lullabies in the language of betrayal. At fourteen, he was already a weapon. At seventeen, he’s a ghost in plain sight, haunting the hallways of a prestigious school by day, while dismantling criminal empires by night. But even ghosts bleed. When a chance reunion with Elise — the girl he once protected, then abandoned — throws him back into the chaos of memory, Carson’s world fractures. Elise is no longer the shy girl from the compound. She’s powerful. Untouchable. And unknowingly standing in the line of fire. Together with a group of outcasts held together by trauma, genius, and vengeance, Carson uncovers a sprawling conspiracy buried beneath glamour and blood: a secret organization that traffics in pain, memory, and forgotten children. The deeper he digs, the more he unravels — about them, about himself, about the horrors he buried in Morocco, in Berlin, in the sound of a lullaby that now drives him to the brink of madness. As old enemies rise and alliances fracture, Carson is forced to confront the brutal question he’s been avoiding all his life: Can someone so broken still choose love over violence? Or is he already too far gone?

They look like mirrors. But they’re not. Elise saw something watching her from behind the glass. Now it won’t stop. And the more she looks… …the closer it gets.

"The water choked him, the cold seeping into his bones. His mind, usually so sharp, fractured into a thousand desperate thoughts. He saw her face above him, contorted by a primal rage, and in his final, suffocating gasp, he knew. Not just an opponent. A predator. He tried to speak, to beg, to curse, but only a gurgle escaped as darkness claimed him. His last thought, a chilling realization: She was more monster than detective." In the rain-slicked streets of Owerri, I live a double life. By day, I'm Detective Elise Blackwood, bound by the law, navigating a system that often fails the innocent. By night, I become a ghost, a weapon forged by a mother's murder, hunting the powerful Network – the city's corrupt elite who operate above all law. They stole my past; I'm here to tear down their future. Every stolen ledger, every breached server, drags me deeper into their deadly game, transforming me from hunter to the hunted. My knuckles ached, the water cold as ice, as I forced him under. This wasn't just justice. This was survival. And a promise kept. I've walked through fire, made impossible choices, and faced betrayal from every angle. Now, as I close in on their elusive financial architect, Pierce M., the man whose secrets can finally bring their empire crashing down, the true cost of my war reveals itself. The truth about Pierce is far more devastating, far more personal, than any nightmare I could have imagined. My pursuit of dark justice is about to collide with a betrayal that will redefine everything I am.

“I married the right woman all along…” *** She becomes the stand-in wife for a reason. But the day her nominal husband divorces her, she panics, and so she burns her alimony down with a smile. When she thinks she is free from her terrible fate, she finds herself tied to the same marriage with the same fake name. As she lives in someone’s shadow, would her nominal husband discover her secret? EXCERPT: “Fine. I will accept your marriage proposal on one condition,” the woman across from Aleckin Ferrero said confidently. “Bring it on.” With the same confidence, Aleckin issued a challenge. “Alright, then. First, once I become Mrs. Ferrero, I am not required to appear in public. Second, I must remain inside my bedroom the entire time—unless Grandpa wants me to visit him...” “Hold on…” Aleckin blinked. His brain seemed malfunctioning, as he could not grasp what she was saying. “Come again?” He must have heard it wrong. Every woman on this planet was desperate to link their name to his. They were killing each other to win him over and become Mrs. Ferrero. However, in contrast, the woman he proposed a contractual marriage to, as the fake matriarch of the Ferrero household, has now expressed a desire for a different arrangement. Who in their right mind would request to lock her up instead of enjoying the lavish life of a billionaire's wife? This is the first time he has encountered such a thing! ‘Is something wrong in her head?’

I remember, I was shot multiple times and fell into the cliff. My body landed on the cold water of the river, the impact was unbearable and painful. The water pulled me deeper, to the darkness and the deafening silence of the void. The gunshot still echoes in my ears and the wounds are aching badly I want to scratch it . Yet, what's more painful is an act of betrayal I never saw coming. I was blind and naive to never saw that coming. The person I trusted, the person I kept and sheltered, makes a fool out of me. The most ungrateful person I knew. I feel like every memories are coming back to me, from my childhood----how I was trained to kill people and do bad things. How I actually kill someone, how I manage to escape from that place and how I manage to be on top--and finally---here. My greatest downfall. I am Elise Cheong. The most wanted fugitive in all of Asia. A ruthless force, an untouchable criminal the authorities couldn't even get close to. I am a woman of pride, honor, and darkness. A name spoken in whispers, feared by all who cross it. My power is not just a shield—it's a fortress. A sanctuary that protects me from the chaos, from the world that waits to tear me apart. I am Elise Cheong. But at some point, I know that I am also someone else. Someone young, kind and loving person. A person who lives a peaceful life despite the chaos caused by creatures that lurks around that vast wall. I still remember it, a sharp sword pierced my heart ----swift and precise. My body landed on the cold grass as my blood drip from my fatal wound. I was naive, I am always that way---but that merciless betrayal was too much for me to handle. Trusting is both a scary and fleeting thing, an immense feeling of a brief companion yet, a darkness that a person can ever imagine. I am Victoria Harper. There is a power within me, yet I chose to conceal and live normally. I prefer a peaceful world, even with the darkness around me. I protect myself and the people I cared about without shredding blood and wounding anyone. I am powerful because of that. I am Victoria Harper. I was one or both of them, and somehow, I lost both and became another person.
