“These bedchambers have missed your scent.” His voice, low and rough, made her pulse quicken. Her fear surged, boundless, as he closed the stained glass doors behind him. “Please… let me go,” she pleaded, trembling as he pulled her close, his touch burning against her skin. “You fled this place while carrying my child. Why did you come back?” he murmured, his lips trailing down her neck as they had so many times before. “I… don’t know,” she managed, her voice barely a whisper. Luciana Mircea de Amanécer, princess of the Holy Empire that ruled the skies, had once lived in a world of beauty and privilege—a devoted father, joyful sisters, wealth, and a loving fiancé. Yet that life shattered with a single conversation. One day, her father appeared in her chambers, eyes solemn, bearing news that upended her world. “You will be married,” he said, but the name wasn’t that of the man she cherished. Instead, she was to be wed to the ruthless crown prince of the rival Demon Empire, an alliance forged to quell the simmering tensions between their kingdoms. “Father, please…” she begged. “My child,” he murmured, his voice heavy with regret. “It is your duty as the firstborn princess. This marriage will protect the realm… and your little sisters.” For the first time in her life, Luciana saw him bow to her, his plea wordless but clear. Yielding to her father’s desperate request, she accepted her fate. In a single day, she went from princess to wife, her dreams abandoned and her future reshaped. But the white wedding gown was soon stained crimson, marking her descent into a life she could never have anticipated. Could she learn to accept a man for whom compassion was an unfamiliar luxury, or would the love she had left behind rise to rescue her?

"Corría el rumor de que Qiao Xi tenía una constitución débil —una belleza enfermiza. Corría el rumor de que gastaba una fortuna todos los días en medicamentos, comiéndolos como si fueran caramelos. Corría el rumor de que diez sirvientes la asistían en su cama todos los días —una carga para todos. Todos esperaban que la familia Qiao devolviera a Qiao Xi al campo y la dejara valerse por sí misma. —Todos dicen que soy débil y no puedo cuidarme a mí misma. Al parecer, también gasto dinero de manera imprudente —dijo Qiao Xi. Miró su camisa desgarrada y estaba exasperada. —¿Estás diciendo que esta familia rica permite que su hija use ropa desgarrada todos los días? —preguntó Qiao Xi. ¿La hija rica de la familia Qiao? ¡Ya tenía suficiente! ¡No lo volvería a ser! Por lo tanto… —Sin la familia Qiao, no eres nada —dijo el chico canalla. —Si me echan de la familia Qiao, estaré acabada —asintió Qiao Xi. —Hermana, no te desanimes demasiado. Mientras trabajas duro, algún día serás alabada —lamentó la chica canalla. —Cállate, no conozco a una traidora como tú —replicó Qiao Xi. El chico y la chica canallas: —¿?¿? Se decía que el hijo más joven de la familia Gu, Gu Zheng, se casó precipitadamente con una mujer que no tenía nada más que su apariencia. —¿Alguien me está subestimando? —dijo Qiao Xi. Un día, Qiao Xi vio a uno de los empleados de Gu Zheng devanándose los sesos con una serie de números en la pantalla del ordenador. Como estaba libre, decidió echar una mano. ¿Acaba de romper el cortafuegos creado por los esfuerzos conjuntos de los hackers de élite más destacados?! Gu Zheng se acercaba cada vez más a ella —Qiao Xi, ¿qué más me estás ocultando? ¿Hmm? —¡Oh, no! ¡Me siento mareada otra vez! Soy tan débil. Este cuerpo mío es simplemente demasiado débil —se lamentó Qiao Xi."

Mo Rao nació en una familia de médicos militares. Sus padres habían arriesgado sus vidas para salvar a la abuela de Fu Ying, por lo que este último se vio obligado a tomar a Mo Rao como su esposa. Mo Rao siempre supo que Fu Ying tenía una chica de ensueño llamada Qu Ru. Esta chica no logró casarse con Fu Ying como deseaba porque la abuela de Fu Ying se lo impidió. Después de su matrimonio, Fu Ying fue muy considerado con Mo Rao. Incluso tenían una alta compatibilidad, especialmente en la cama. Fu Ying siempre se encontraba profundamente sumergido en la ternura de Mo Rao. Hasta que un día, Fu Ying dijo: —Qu Ru ha vuelto. Vamos a divorciarnos. Transferiré la propiedad que te prometí a tu nombre. Mo Rao dijo: —¿No podemos divorciarnos? ¿Y si… estoy embarazada…? Fu Ying contestó sin corazón: —¡Aborta! No quiero más obstáculos entre Qu Ru y yo. Además, Qu Ru tiene leucemia, y tu médula ósea resulta ser compatible con la de ella. Si estás dispuesta a donar la tuya, puedo prometerte cualquier cosa. Mo Rao dijo: —¿Y si mi condición es que no nos divorciemos? Los ojos de Fu Ying se tornaron fríos. —Mo Rao, no seas tan codiciosa. Incluso si te lo prometo por el bien de Qu Ru, sabes muy bien que no te amo. Las palabras 'no te amo' atravesaron el corazón de Mo Rao como un cuchillo. Su sonrisa de repente se torció y ya no era la mujer dócil que solía ser. —Fu Ying, esta es la primera vez que me repugnas tanto. Me llamas codiciosa, ¿pero acaso tú no lo eres igual? ¿Quieres que nos divorciemos para que puedas estar con Qu Ru? De acuerdo, aceptaré eso. ¿Pero incluso sueñas con que yo la salvaré? No olvides que en la vida no se puede tener todo lo que uno quiere, igual que tú y yo. Luego Mo Rao se fue. Fu Ying en realidad se sintió sofocado, y esta sensación lo volvía loco. Cuando Mo Rao apareció una vez más, se había convertido en una estrella deslumbrante. Cuando se presentó ante Fu Ying, de la mano con su nuevo galán, a Fu Ying no le importó en absoluto y dijo: —Cariño, ¿no dijiste que solo me amarías a mí? Mo Rao sonrió débilmente. —Lo siento, exesposo. Estaba equivocada en ese entonces. Solo fuiste un sustituto. En realidad, amo a alguien más.

In a world where power and passion collide, Lily Anderson finds herself entangled in a web of deceit and desire with Ethan Blackwood, a man of enigmatic charm and ruthless ambition. Their tumultuous relationship is a battleground of wills and wits, where Lily struggles to maintain her dignity and autonomy against Ethan's domineering control. As they navigate through a series of encounters that test the limits of trust and betrayal, a question lingers in the air: Can love flourish in the shadows of manipulation, or will it wither under the weight of dark intentions? "I'm not finished," Lily glared at him defiantly, reaching for another bottle from the ice bucket. With a resounding crash, Ethan upended the entire bucket, his eyes darkening with barely contained fury. "Get the hell out of here, all of you!" He snarled, his face contorted with rage. How dare they ogle his woman like that? "You belong to me. Your body, your time, your very existence—all of it is mine to do with as I please," Ethan growled, his face mere inches from hers, asserting a claim that Lily vehemently resisted. "I don't belong to anyone," she spat, her voice trembling. "Least of all a monster like you." "You'll learn, Lily. One way or another, you'll learn your place," Ethan's lips curled into a cruel smile, promising a future of struggle and submission. "I'll do anything you want," Lily whispered, her soul fracturing with each syllable, as she made a choice that would change her life forever. "Because my name is Ethan Blackwood," he said, a statement that carried with it a weight of power and a promise of consequences yet to be seen.

"The heavenly dog ​​rises from the earth and falls into the sunset. The sky is as red as blood, and the lucky star retreats into nothingness. In the vastness, a man stumbles forward, paving the way with difficulty, and blood is spilled with every step. Only a stalk of chrysanthemum withers behind him." This is a prophecy that no one can interpret, but some people say that this is my fate. Others say that the ritual officials are involved in yin and yang, are good at tombs, and cover up the secrets of heaven. The nobles of ancient times were all buried in their hands to protect future generations. In the end, they did not die well, and I could not escape it. But I don't accept it...

An ancient spirit begged Fang Yusheng to save as many relationships as he could after summoning him from his world. He refused. In the realm of cultivation, a perverted, hard to catch organization was tearing families apart with a magical curse. Saving people one by one felt pointless to him. Fang Yusheng had a greater goal. In his past life, he dreamed of flying into space, of touching the stars with his own hands. Here, in this new world, that dream could finally become reality. Still, he hated those who thrived on suffering. So, he made the spirit a promise. "I'll just kill everyone in that trash cult." "Light colored eyes are considered ugly here?" Aidan Reith found himself transmigrated into a fantasy world just before his acting debut, only to discover its beauty standards were a bit off. But Aidan quickly adapted and got excited. He loved acting, and this strange world offered countless cultures to explore. To his surprise, he also awakened the power of a chameleon. All he needed was the body of a species, and he could turn it into a wearable skin! [You can become a demon. Do you want to read the 'haunted village' script?] [You can become a poisonous lamia. Do you want to read the 'gem-loving snake' script?] [You can become a dragoman. Do you want to read the 'dark dragon's harem' script?] Aidan soon realized the world's entertainment lacked variety, so he decided to create the first movie theater. And those who tried to stop him? They mysteriously disappeared. "So every time my disciple passes a tribulation, I’ll receive a treasure chest?" And every time his sect ranked up, he’d get one too! As the Thief Saint’s inheritor, Fang Yusheng certainly had many advantages. Now, all he needed to do was cultivate his sect, enjoy the company of his future disciples, help them grow stronger, and reap numerous rewards. After the initial struggle, life would be on easy mode.... Or so Fang Yusheng thought. [Current minimum requirement:] [Your disciple should at least have an astral physique.] "..." "They say I poisoned my own brother... In a way, they’re not wrong." In the martial world of Danxia, Seth Fenix was cursed with Withering Yin Syndrome, a rare disease that drained his strength and halted his cultivation. Mocked as the "Withered Demon," his ugly appearance and rumored betrayal of his brother made him a hated outcast. Seth paid no mind to the scorn of others, and only focused on himself. Then, everything changed when an incident awakened the Divine Yin Lotus Seed within him. It gave him hope—a cure for his illness and the power to rise again. But Seth soon learned that unlocking its full potential required one thing… The sacrifice of celestial blood. "Dual cultivation is actually the cure to my illness?" In the martial world of Danxia, qi flowed through everything. Unfortunately, Seth Fenix was born with Withering Qi Syndrome, a disease that drained qi from his body and made surviving past the age of nine nearly impossible. Miraculously, he managed to live for nineteen years, tirelessly searching for a cure with the help of his eccentric alchemist mentor. One day, after drinking her latest potion, his condition seemed to improve—only to later discover the shocking truth behind the 'elixir'. It was her breast milk?! --- He was a devil who sacrificed his family to save himself. At least, that’s what everyone believed. In truth, a soul from another world had hijacked Seth’s body and sold his family secrets away. The action led to the Fenix clan's massacre. After that, the real Seth, powerless and trapped within his own body, had to endure years of torment—until the day he broke free. Thus began the tale of a demon who did as his heart pleased. ---

Zuni busca desesperadamente el disco El Noa Noa de Juan Gabriel, y Nitram, aunque inicialmente reticente, acepta ir por curiosidad y para ayudar a su amigo. Al entrar al local, Nitram queda impresionado por la atmósfera nostálgica del lugar: estanterías llenas de vinilos, música suave de fondo, y un olor peculiar que mezcla antigüedad y calidez. Sin embargo, lo que realmente lo impacta es la presencia de Kosei Teki, una chica rubia que trabaja detrás del mostrador. Su actitud tímida, su concentración en el trabajo y su aspecto peculiar lo deslumbran desde el primer momento. Nitram se acerca al mostrador y, tras un breve intercambio de palabras, Kosei encuentra el disco que busca. A pesar de que la interacción es breve y algo torpe, Nitram no puede dejar de pensar en ella después de salir del local. Ese primer encuentro, aunque sencillo, siembra en él una curiosidad y un interés genuino hacia Kosei. @nitramssj

Alan Yokob dies as he lived—in a blaze of violence. A hitman with a reputation for ruthless efficiency, his final act is a fiery car crash. But death is not the end. When Alan opens his eyes, he finds himself in another world. Complely different from earth. “Welcome to Kirath,”. Once, this realm teetered on the edge of annihilation until mortals overthrew the Demon King’s tyrannical reign. But a thousand years of “peace” have left Kirath fractured—its magic withering, its lands plagued by cataclysms, its people rotting from complacency. The solution? Resurrect the demons. And they’ve chosen Alan, a man who traded in death, to wear the crown. To survive, Alan must wield the **Oblivion Pact**, a parasitic system that rewards carnage with unholy power. Kill to summon ★Soulrenders★—demonic warriors bound to his will. Conquer to rebuild. Rule to channel the chaotic energy that once made demons the world’s necessary evil. But Kirath’s fractured kingdoms see only a monster, not a savior. Holy knights hunt him as a blasphemy. Fallen heroes, drunk on their ancestors’ glory, vow to finish what their forebears started. As Alan battles to resurrect a demonic legacy he doesn’t believe in. The demons were not mere oppressors—they were shackles binding a far older terror. Now, with their power waning, that ancient hunger stirs. To save Kirath, Alan must become the Demon King the world fears… or watch it drown in the hubris of its own “victory.”

An experiment that sought to develop humanity failed and sent humanity into a thousand-year war against demons that continues to this day. There is no salvation or escape. It is the story of a withered world desperately trying to cling to life with what remains of humanity’s strength.

It was the day of my death. As everything came to an end, I heard a voice, a voice that would ultimately decide both my suffering and my rise. [If you had enough time to play one more game, what would it be?] Naturally, I answered the one game that had been on my mind even before I found myself withering away on my deathbed. The War of Demons and Heroes. An adult game of epic proportions. **** Disclaimer 1. This is my second novel, so don't expect amazing quality; I'm still learning. 2. This is a slow-paced story. The story is written from Kayle's perspective and will have an emphasis on the characters and world around him. 3. "Is this a harem?" A common question from my previous novel, so I'll address it upfront: Yesn't. 4. If you decide to give my novel a try, first, thank you! Second, feel free to leave any thoughts or opinions in the comment sections and paragraph comments. The constructive criticism or inspiration I get from them is always welcome.

"If I get out of here... will you look at me, smile at me again?" He whispered, his voice almost inaudible, and then his eyes filled with tears.

But can they come back to life?

Manuscripts—the name given to unfinished novels in a celestial system governed by an omniscient god. Each completed story becomes a living, breathing world, where characters have destinies and journeys woven with care. But Manuscripts? These are fractured worlds, doomed to stagnate. Their characters wander endlessly, unable to fulfill their purpose, trapped in an eternal loop of unresolved tales. The god, who treasures every story, refused to let these realms wither.

Kiyel, a 16-year-old boy from Earth, is offered a second chance after dying from relentless bullying. His task: enter a Manuscript riddled with chaos and restore its broken story.
