Cuppa Buckets

Lilly Lorenzo never meant to fall for him. She only wanted to read her way through the pain of her past, not find herself tangled in the pages of someone else's story—especially not his. Luca Demon is everything she’s not—wealthy, popular, and dangerously charming. When a spilled bucket of bleach sparks an unexpected connection between them, Lilly’s quiet life begins to turn a page she never saw coming. But behind every perfect smile is a secret. And behind Lilly’s silence, a storm brews. In a world where class divides and whispers echo louder than truth, can love really be written between the lines? This is a slow-burn, heart-aching, sweet romance you won’t forget.

Rayyan was no ordinary boy—he possessed a power unlike any other. Mysterious and quiet, he lived a life shrouded in secrets. One day, in a twist of fate, he kidnapped a girl named Daphne Catherine, unaware of the truth behind her identity. She wasn’t just any girl—she was Dee, the infamous master of the underground racing world. Dee had abandoned her past, hiding from the law as the police closed in on her illegal racing bureau. Determined to clear her name, she returned to the city to resolve the chaos she'd left behind. After the case was settled, she enrolled in university, eager to start over. There, she met Duke—a charming, attentive guy who helped her during a bout of fever. Slowly, she began to fall for him. They spent time together, often meeting at the cozy café where he worked part-time. But just when she thought she could trust again, Duke betrayed her. He took her to a place, unaware that she secretly owned it. The lies shattered her. Devastated, Dee returned to the racetrack, her old escape. But the race turned tragic—an accident left her in a coma for a month. When she finally opened her eyes, Rayyan was there. He confessed his feelings, the emotions he’d kept buried now pouring out. They argued often—Rayyan, normally quiet and distant, only ever opened up to her. Despite the tension, something sparked between them. Love, hesitant and tender, began to grow. Together, they began crossing off items from Dee’s bucket list, sharing laughs and stolen moments. But happiness was never meant to last. Tragedy struck again. In the chaos, Rayyan saved her, risking everything. He introduced her to his sister, letting her deeper into his guarded world, and then left the country for a series of high-stakes business deals. But when he returned, everything had changed. Dee was distant, cold. Without warning, she walked away, claiming she no longer wanted him in her life. The rejection broke Rayyan. Her absence consumed him, turning his quiet obsession into a dark spiral of despair. He was no longer the same. Now, with their love shattered and hearts in pieces—what happens next?

She married a man who was rumored to suffer from various conditions from head to toe. On their wedding night, Nangong Mo told her, “I’m blind, and I’ll have a short life. I don’t want a beautiful woman like you to make a mistake. You may divorce me and find someone else.”Yun Ran affectionately replied, “People often say that when a couple marries, there would be no doubt about their love. Since we’re married, we should stay together. I’ll accompany you till the last moment of your life.” However, Nangong Mo could hear her inner thoughts. Divorce? Why would I do that? I’ll stay at your house and spend your money. When you kick the bucket, I’ll dig a hole and bury you, then I’ll inherit the rest of your wealth and land. Isn’t that wonderful? Nangong Mo gritted his teeth and slowly said, “Heh… Very wonderful!”

Eric is given the opportunity to modify/create a simulation-world for himself and others to experience.

Living as the fifth daughter of a noble family, Amira found herself adrift in the fog of her home, neglected and overlooked by those she once called her own. Her days were spent in the solitude of the attic, a hidden oasis away from the bustling world outside. However, when the tumult of war erupts and she is thrust into the role of a truce offering between two formidable nations, she grapples with the uncertainty of surviving in a new kingdom known for its icy demeanor and ruthless nature. Will she navigate this foreign terrain and carve out a new existence she never fathomed? (Excerpt) "Clean it," Zyran commanded. "Yes, your Highness," the servant acknowledged with a respectful bow, ready to fetch the cleaning supplies. "Not you," Zyran interjected, causing the servant to freeze in confusion. "Her," he added, nodding in the direction of Anastasia, whose eyes widened in disbelief. Anastasia blinked rapidly, trying to process the situation. "Pardon?" she asked. "Clean the mess on the floor," Zyran instructed. The crowd started murmuring and Anastasia shifted uncomfortably on her knees. "That's the servant's job, not mine. Why should I? I don't think I understand what you are trying to say Prince Zyran. My father will never approve of this," Anastasia began only to be abruptly cut off by Zyran. "Don't make me repeat myself. I'm sure you wouldn't like it if I interfered with your task," Zyran warned. Anastasia's lips trembled as she fought to hold back her words. She knew Zyran's reputation for being ruthless, and she didn't want to make her situation any worse than it already was. "Get me the cleaning supplies," she instructed the servant, who was prepared to follow her command until Zyran interjected. "No one will help you," he declared. Anastasia's chest heaved with anger as she locked eyes with Amira, who was standing behind Zyran. She rose to her knees, intending to fetch the cleaning supplies herself, but Zyran stopped her once again. "Where do you think you're going?" he demanded. "To bring the bucket," she replied with a hint of annoyance, but she quickly reminded herself to remain composed. "I never asked you to stand up," Zyran stated. "Then how am I supposed to clean the floor?" she inquired. "Use your dress," Zyran replied. The onlookers in the crowd were visibly shocked, exchanging bewildered glances and murmurs as they witnessed the unfolding scene. Anastasia's cheeks turned crimson with embarrassment.

[MATURE CONTENT] Arella is an angel. Well, she used to be an angel. A real, bona fide, halo-wearing, wing-flapping celestial being. That was until one tiny whoopsie where she unfortunately burns a pair of wings at a banquet happens. Fine! There was more than one tiny whoopsie. Fast forward a few hours later, and Arella found herself booted from the pearly gates with nothing but her wings and an eviction notice. Her family called it a "vacation." Ha! A vacation, in the human realm of all places! One hundred years later, Arella calls it her new life. Turns out, living among humans isn’t half bad—especially when you can turn invisibly smug at their lack of ability to fly. Early retirement has never been so blissful. That is, until the heavens smack her face with a message: Arella’s back on duty. And her new job? Marry. The. Demon. King. Wait, what?! Marrying the Demon King isn’t exactly on Arella’s bucket list, especially when demons and angels have been sworn enemies for eons. But orders are orders. So, off she goes, wings drooping and attitude cranked to full sass, to meet her new husband—a devilishly handsome demon who seems unnervingly smitten with her. Not to mention the heat that surges within her the moment she lays her eyes on him. Cue in dinner dates, fiery arguments (literally), and a series of catastrophes involving Arella purposefully setting a demon's hair ablaze with her holy fire. But as Arella settles into this bizarre celestial-demonic union, she uncovers a sinister plot that threatens not just her marriage but their entire reality. Turns out, angels and demons might have to join forces to stop a threat that neither side can handle alone. And Arella? She might just be the unexpected key to saving everyone. Armed with nothing but her quick wit, trusty angelic powers, and a painfully doting husband who may or may not leave her love notes carved into rock when she is angry, Arella must navigate battles, betrayals, and the occasional marital spat to protect their world. After all, nothing says “happily ever after” like saving existence itself, .... right? Right? One fallen angel. One absolutely smitten demon king. And a whole lot of chaos.

Transmigrated into a novel she dropped was never on Qi Jianyi’s bucket list. She could still remember how she deleted the novel on her phone after reading the first 30 chapters of the book.  “A book full of bullshit.” She cursed before going to sleep.  Never in a million years would she have thought that one day, she would be pulled into a novel she hated. All Qi Jianyi could think of was trying to look for a way home while ignoring the plot of the novel.  But where does she start? No, does she really have the time to think about it after the appearance of an annoying man who keeps pestering her?  Qi Jianyi could not forget her first impression of that man. He was as cold as ice, but had a fiery temperament. Those beautiful eyes of his had once captured Qi Jianyi’s attention.  But the young miss of the Qi family was too busy looking for a way home. How could she have the time and energy to care about a certain young master?  However, Song Chengfeng would not stop appearing before her. He didn’t know why either. For the first time in his entire life, his mind and body were not in sync.  “Why bother with her?” He whispered coldly, yet his legs already walked towards the woman who was enjoying her life.  “Because I love you, Qi Jianyi! I didn’t even know I was capable of feeling this way, but I do. I love you! I love you so much that the thought of losing you terrifies me. It suffocates me. And yet… you’re not even mine.” - Song Chengfeng "Loving me only ruins you. So stop!" - Qi Jianyi

Everett Vale is a janitor… with a PhD. Not a doctor. Not a nurse. Not anyone you'd notice—unless your floor's on fire, your toilet's rebelling, or your soul’s quietly unraveling at 2 a.m. in the hallway. Told through the eyes of Noah, a nursing assistant just trying to make sense of the chaos, this story blends hospital absurdity with unexpected wisdom. Between scent-obsessed coworkers, haunting memories, and mop buckets full of metaphor, Dr. Janitor: PhD in Mop Philosophy explores what it really means to heal—not just bodies, but the quiet spaces people never talk about. It’s a story about messes. About grief, hope, and finding family in unlikely places. About saints in scrubs and unsung heroes with calloused hands and tired eyes. It’s about learning that sometimes the person cleaning up the mess understands the brokenness better than the one trying to fix it. If you’ve ever felt overlooked, if you’ve ever laughed in the middle of heartbreak, or if you’ve ever believed that the quietest voice in the room might just be the one that matters most—this book is for you.

Accidentally becoming a terrorist wasn't on my college bucket list, but here we are. One anonymous post, a bit of dry ice, and a suspiciously trusting browser later, I'm the government's newest "criminal mastermind." Spoiler: I'm just a broke student who failed 11th grade. Now the internet thinks I'm Moriarty's long-lost cousin, my parents are questioning my life choices, and I'm starting to wonder if Nietzsche was onto something about chaos and power. It's not easy juggling tuition, intrusive thoughts, and a reputation I didn't mean to build-but hey, at least I'm trending! If you've ever thought "This can't get worse" and life said "Hold my coffee," welcome to my world.

Seventeen-year-old Yuki wakes up in a perfect seaside town with no memory of how he got there—and no one but a strange, sunlit girl named Ami who insists they complete a twelve-item summer bucket list before it's too late. As the days pass and the world around them begins to unravel, Yuki discovers the truth: he’s trapped in a dream born from a coma, and Ami may not be real at all.

From stargazing on rooftops to dancing in the rain, every moment they share becomes something more: a promise, a memory, a heartbeat. But as the end draws closer and time slips through their fingers, Ren discovers a forgotten photograph—proof that this isn’t the first time their paths have crossed. With sunrise on the horizon and Hana’s strength fading, he races to fulfill her final wish.

At the age of eleven, the oil tanker Fang Luo entered the life of the seven year old Fang Moduo in an undeclared manner. From then on, he became the enemy she would grit her teeth and curse every night before going to bed. But in the Fang family, which is like an ice cave, they can only keep warm and get close to each other. Until Fang Moduo learned the secret about her mother's death, the hatred in her heart led her to accidentally kill the child in her stepmother's womb. From then on, she escaped from that home and from Fangluo's world. When they met again, they realized that those deep loves had always been hidden in their hearts, never forgotten... Chapter One: The dark red wall, the small brick building crawling with green vines, the small and tidy garden surrounded by white fences, the wooden floor shining with a dark brown luster... In Fang Luo's eyes, the new home was full of colors that made him uneasy and confused. Although the colors are beautiful, they do not have the warmth he is familiar with, including the little girl in front of him wearing pure white lace chiffon. Would you call me Mordor? Sister, dad, and nanny all call me that. "7-year-old Fang Mordor smiled sweetly, with a smile as rich as freshly cooked cheese. That's right, just like cheese, 11 year old Fang Luo couldn't find a more suitable metaphor to describe the little girl in front of him, instinctively thinking of his favorite sweet food. It's none of my business what they call you, "Fang Luo tried to end his boring opening remarks with a cold laugh. He thought he had nothing to say to a seven year old doll, and his low mood was not enough to support him barely completing a smile on the little girl. You're my brother, "Fang Moduo widened her eyes." Brother wants to call my sister a nickname! "Brother? The unfamiliar words made Fang Luo even more annoyed for no reason. What kind of brother, he's just a drag on the bucket. Luoluo, what's wrong with you? Don't be impolite to your sister, "Xiao Yizhen frowned slightly and scolded her son. She didn't want to leave an impression on the Fang family that she couldn't raise her son right after marrying into the Fang family. Although Fang Zhi is not present now, it's hard to guarantee that Xiao Moduo won't complain to her father. In fact, Fang Luo's son did give her a headache. Perhaps it's because she only focuses on her ballet and ignores him, or maybe it's because her ex husband also ignores this son. But since her son is two people, why should she be solely responsible.

Amidst an apocalyptic virus, Alona Lim had always been fond of blood and needles. She's considered to be a one in a million genius young doctor. However, she made a decision that had endangered humanity's only hope for survival—risking the last prototype vial on her best friend Harold. Being the risk taker that she was, Alona took even the slimmest chance of her best friend's survival despite the consequences it bear, only to wake up anew in another body. Alona, who was now named as Vera, swore she'll never get involved with medicine ever again and will enjoy her new life with much more action instead of grinding herbs and learning anatomies. But, seeing how these new people have terrible medical services, much less hygiene, had been sending her wits to the edge. Living in a patriarchal kingdom was already stressful as it was, but seeing how years of unbrushed teeth smooch, months of unshowered people shamelessly walk around, cooking ingredients from rat-infested food storage, and everything that checks off of the bucket list on how to spread a plague fast makes her OCD screech the shit out of her system. Medicine was easy, however, there were also different kinds of people who were fond of blood and needles—the "demonic" witches. Being born as a noble lady, the only reason they must get involved with needles are sewing and embroidery. Medical practitioners are only for the men, the "only logical beings." Witchcraft was a big taboo and considered as demonic practice that were associated with women who disobeys their father or husband. Once discovered that one practices witchcraft awaits nothing but grave punishments. But it does not help much when she's straight-up wayward with a calloused heart. As much as Alona shows potential as a medicine practitioner, she had to keep her male disguise, if not, more and more people will rise suspicion with her erudition to heal.
