Dusty Manson Otome

The Drunkard

"This is a fantastic supernatural Western that oozes tension, grit, and mythic heft. Elias Thorne is a fascinating antihero; the curse is sinister, the villains are mundane and eldritch, and the unyielding pressure applies. This is more than another gunslinger story because of the balance of horror, fate, and moral choice; it’s about the will’s ability to fight against the inevitable." Character: Elias Thorne Charismatic, imperfect, and balancing on the line between survival and damnation. His arc is riveting, transforming from reckless gambler to self-sacrificing bearer of the burden. This will make readers root for him and fear for him. The Curse & Its Rules The idea of “borrowed luck” is pretty simple and yet horrifying. The gradual unraveling of Elias’s fortune provides natural suspense, and the Collector as its enforcer makes it all the more ominous. Malachai & The Collector Malachai himself is an intimate, humanistic danger, while the Collector is a more inexplicably dark and inescapable force that lends Elias’s fate a sense of claustrophobia. Their give-and-take maintains the tension. Moral Dilemma  The central question of sacrificing another or suffering the curse himself raises this above a mere survival story. That internal struggle is what will haunt readers. Cinematic Atmosphere: Dusty saloons, moonlit canyons, a town where curses are the currency—it drips with style. It’s a Western at its core but sprinkled with unsettling, supernatural dread. Areas for Enhancement: The Connection Currently, she mainly describes the curse and helps Elias on his journey. Make it personal; give her something to lose. Maybe she wants the amulet back, or she has her own desperate agenda. The Collector’s Voice It’s sinister, but how does it talk? If it had a sense of comedic absurdity, if it addressed him in riddles that pile onto Elias’s decisions, it would be much scarier. More Western-Infused Prose Your world seems increasingly Western, but you could drive the dialogue and narration deeper into the biting, poetic Western voice (Blood Meridian, The Sisters Brothers) and go a long way toward treating the reader to more immersion. [Book Wow Factor] That is a very powerful basis. With just a few tweaks to Selene and the Collector and a touch more Western style infusing the prose, this could be an instant classic. If this were on your shelf, you would snatch it up.

Screw you Otome Game!I'm outta here!

In the world of Eternal Rose, an otome game filled with noble drama, romance, and powerful love interests, one character is destined to be nothing more than an early stepping stone—the arrogant young noble, Veyron Delacroix. He’s a mid-tier villain, a disgrace to his family, and worst of all… a tutorial boss meant to die before the heroine even meets the real threats. —Or at least, that’s how it was supposed to go. Reincarnated as Veyron just days before his scripted defeat, he quickly realizes the developers gave him insane hidden potential, only for it to go completely unused in the actual game. His latent vampire bloodline, an ability to steal powers by drinking blood, and his insane combat skills? All wasted because the plot demanded he die early. So what does he do? Screw the script. He’s out. Ditching the noble life, he vanishes into the world, doing whatever the hell he wants—from hunting monsters, stealing forbidden magic, and maybe accidentally creating a criminal empire along the way. Meanwhile, the game’s heroine is left confused as hell when she arrives at his supposed defeat event, only to find her “destined enemy” missing. With broken potential, a foul mouth, and zero interest in playing by the rules, Veyron is about to turn this romantic noble drama into an absolute power fantasy disaster—and he’s going to enjoy every second of it. Because if fate wanted him dead, he’ll just become strong enough to flip fate the middle finger.

The Villains Must Win

I’m a proud NEET who’s devoured every romance novel, manga, webtoon, and otome game out there. Just when I thought I’d conquered it all, a black bunny appeared in my dream. “Congrats! You’ve been chosen to help villains win across multiple worlds!” “Like a game?” “Uh . . . sure.” “Great, I’m in!” And just like that, I became an agent of the Villain System. Time to rewrite some happily-ever-afters—villain style. **[NOTE!]** This novel features multiple short arcs, each exploring different tropes such as ancient China, the modern world, beasts, werewolves, vampires, fantasy, school romance, idol groups—you name it! The twist? Each arc focuses on our MC making the villain (male) triumph over the male and female leads. The story is written primarily in 2nd and 3rd person POV for a dynamic and immersive experience. || Excerpt || [WARNING! MATURE Content Ahead!] “Then serve me . . . properly.” The command was both sensual and authoritative, and Xue Li’s pulse quickened under his intense gaze. The air between them grew heavy, her trembling hands faltering as she began to run the sponge across his chest, her touch featherlight against his scars. “Y-yes your majesty.” Xue Li’s hand trembled slightly as she dipped the towel into the warm, fragrant water, her breath catching as she squeezed it out over Han Feng’s shoulders. The water cascaded down his chiseled frame, tracing every ridge and contour of his muscles. She swallowed hard, focusing intently on her task, though her heart raced like a drum in her chest. She began at his shoulders, her touch gentle as the towel glided over his skin. His scars, a mix of old battles and untold stories, caught her attention, and she hesitated for a brief moment before continuing. The warmth of the water mixed with the heat radiating from his body, and the intimacy of the moment sent a shiver up her spine. Han Feng leaned back slightly, watching her through half-lidded eyes, his expression unreadable. “Slower,” he murmured, his voice a low rumble that made her pulse skip. Xue Li obeyed, her movements becoming more deliberate as she ran the sponge across his chest, down the defined lines of his abdomen. Each stroke felt unbearably sensual, her fingers brushing his skin as she worked. She tried to maintain her composure, but the proximity to him, the sheer physicality of his presence, made her feel as though the air had thickened. When she reached his arms, he extended one lazily, letting her clean him as though it were his divine right. Her hand moved carefully, trailing down his forearm to his wrist, her touch so soft it almost tickled. Han Feng’s silence was oppressive yet charged, the pressure of his gaze pinning her in place. As she lowered the sponge to his torso again, her hand faltered briefly near the sharp line of his hipbone. The water ran over his skin like liquid fire, and her breath hitched when she noticed the slight curve of his lips, a hint of satisfaction playing there. “You’re trembling,” he said, his voice velvet smooth, making her flinch. “I-It’s the steam, Your Majesty,” she stammered, though she knew it was a poor excuse. Han Feng chuckled softly, the sound deep and rich. “Hmm . . . Is that so? Then you have no problem cleaning my cock right?” Xue Li's eyes trembled, on the verge of tears, which seemed to please Han Feng. His smile grew wider as he urged her on. "Go on. You're going to serve me properly, aren't you?"

Traversing Through Beastmen World

Bree was a modern girl reborn into the world of shifters, as a bunny. This was obviously a cruel joke since she had died in her previous life by being mauled. In this new world, females were few due to the warlike environment. The different clans would constantly fight over land and resources. Females were considered the most valuable resource. If females refused to find at least two mates by the time they matured, they would be sold. You didn't want to be sold. Sold females were considered property and would get a mark of slavery on them. Because females were so expensive, they were usually bought by whole communities to be shared by unmated males. The mark of slavery prevented them from contracting a mate and therefor accumulating power and territory. You needed to create a strong home by contracting with powerful shifters. After contracting, they would receive your mark and become your champion. They would fight for your honor, use their magic ability for your benefit, and provide for you. In return, you were expected to produce eggs. Males could be the leader of a clan, but a female could take over large territories by contracting the strong clan leaders. After expanding her territory, a female would be considered nobility. The stronger their champions, the better their resources and territory. Larger area's typically had one queen female and her court made up of nobility. Every double full moon, they would fight for the honor to have their female enter the queen's court. At the end of the queen's reign, she could choose a new queen from her court. In the midst of all this, Bree discovered her own magic power, 'Otome Gamer.' While Bree is trying to fulfill her quests, and an ultimate goal that would change everything, a frightening darkness is spreading, and shifters start to dissappear. Along her journey, Bree makes friends and discovers that fated mates actually exist.

The Awakening Chronicles: Dragons Roar

In a world not too different from our own, humanity stirs from its slumber to the sound of the Awakening. Picture this: one sunny morning, everyone pours their coffee, only to discover that their favorite house pet has morphed into a fire-breathing dragon. Yep, it's that kind of day. This peculiar phenomenon brings mana—a whimsical, binding energy that makes the wildest dreams (and nightmares) come alive. Ordinary plants sprout fangs, while cats take to the skies as sleek griffins. It’s a magical pandemonium out there! Amidst this unexpected transformation, some creatures we've only seen in bedtime stories are crashing the party like they own the place. Dragons are zooming through the skies, and leviathans are throwing epic ocean raves, shaking the depths of the seas. But there's always a catch, right? Sadly, these creatures, now strutting their stuff, seem to think humans are more of a nuisance than a treat. Imagine trying to explain to a dragon that you’re not a threat; it might be a tough sell after your last encounter involved a singed eyebrow. Enter our unlikely hero, or rather, anti-hero: Kael Ravencrest. This chap was once a reclusive scholar, deeply engrossed in dusty tomes, probably muttering about the good old days when monsters were merely figments of imagination. But lo and behold! The Awakening kicks him into high gear, and he morphs from bookworm to badass. Armed with the nifty skill of summoning, Kael can call forth powerful creatures. Let’s be real, it’s like Pokémon on steroids. However, life isn’t just about flexing your new powers—Kael's backstory features a cocktail of personal losses and emotional baggage that would make even the toughest of toughies weep. He's seen his home charred to cinders by a rampaging hydra, a once-believed myth that now insists on hosting BBQs in the middle of civilization. The kicker? He’s haunted by dreams of a lost city and whispers of an ancient prophecy that may just hold the key to humanity finding its footing—if it doesn’t get stepped on by a troll first. As he grapples with the oncoming chaos, Kael teeters on the edge of despair and hope. Is there a way for humans and fantastical beings to share this enchanted playground, or are we all just destined to crumble under the wings of a dragon? Only time—and perhaps a couple of well-placed summoning spells—will tell. So, raise your coffee cups and prepare for a rollercoaster ride through ancient lore and contemporary calamity, because Kael is about to make history… or, you know, rewrite it with a flourish.
