(CONTAINS R18+ CONTENT) Enemies to lovers- check Slow burn- check A cute naughty dog- check Spice? (The author is keeping her mouth zipped) No third-party breakup or misunderstanding. But there are lots of banter and witty comebacks. (The story is planned to be around 200 chapters. No drag) Mu Yiren I never imagined I'd be faking a relationship with my biggest enemy—the untamed, ridiculously charming Feng Junjie, known throughout the city as the "golden boy" of business and a billionaire playboy with a reputation for breaking hearts. But when he dangles a life-changing offer in front of me, the kind that could secure my inheritance, I find myself agreeing to be his "girlfriend." But the thing is….. What if I start seeing the real him? Pretending to be Junjie’s devoted partner is like walking on a razor's edge. He’s everything I can’t stand—sexy, cocky, and devilish, and yet a sweetheart by heart that leaves me flustered by his actions. I know better than to fall for a man like him; my mother’s battle with Alzheimer’s has convinced me to never fall in love. But Junjie isn't just any man. Beneath his easygoing charm is an intensity that leaves me breathless, and he knows exactly how to crack through the walls I have built around me, awakening a passion I never felt before. JUNJIE I need my life back. A sorry attempt at love had me question everything and forced me away from my brothers. Since my ‘ex best friend’s’ constant accusations had gotten out of control, I might as well pretend to date someone and shut her mouth. My definition of a fake date- Beautiful, sexy, tempting…..umm…. insufferable, annoying, and with a mouth that won’t stop running. The mouth with red lipstick. The mouth I want to…. This arrangement was supposed to be simple: fake dating, clear boundaries, no feelings. But the more he plays the role of her devoted partner, the more the lines between fake and real start to blur. And now, he’s no longer sure where the act ends and his true feelings begin. The catch? Mu Yiren doesn’t believe in love. And she certainly doesn’t believe a man like Feng Junjie is capable of anything but heartbreak. But Feng has never been one to follow the rules. Boundaries? He’s about to break them. Deals? They were made to be rewritten. He’s going all in, and this time, he’s not playing pretend. ******* "Are you saying you'd let any man get this close?" "ABSOLUTELY NO!" The words burst out of me, too quick, too honest. His smirk deepens. "Tell me, if I leave you like this, all wound up and aching, will you be sneaking off to use one of your little toys?" "Yes," "Tell me, were you waiting for me to initiate something this past week?" he tugs my shorts more and kisses my navel. My heart hammers and my voice comes out shaky. "N-No." I won't give him the satisfaction of knowing he's right. He chuckles darkly. "Wrong answer. Let's try again." ****

Natovis, better known as the Layered City, has seen better days. The upper layers are still intact and still governed by the authorities, but they are nothing compared to what they used to be. No one knows what goes on past the 8th floor down from the top. It is estimated that there could be thousands of floors. Things are so far declined that much of history and science is forgotten. People turn instead to speculation, legend, and outright guessing to explain the world and universe. Most do not even know how the city got there. There is a series of mysterious and unexplained disappearances, none of which have any evidence, except for one. The insolvency to fixing this problem shines light onto the civilizations decline. The public, led by some extraordinary individuals take action to both solve the mystery, turn things around, and figure out why the city declined in the first place.

"Writer’s block is one thing. Being too lazy to even write is another. But waking up as a girl? Now that’s just ridiculous." At 19 years old, Joseph Angelito L. Ramondez is a NEET, a failed writer, and a professional procrastinator. He’s tried everything—every cliché in the book, every AI writing tool under the sun—but nothing works. His stories are uninspired, overdone, and completely ignored. Maybe he was just born too late for success. Or maybe he’s just destined to fail. Then, one morning, he wakes up to find himself in a female body—long, flowing silver hair, piercing blue eyes, and all. Instead of freaking out, his first thought is: "Maybe I can finally write a good gender-bend story now." Armed with a new perspective (literally) and a renewed (though still lazy) sense of purpose, Joseph sets out to turn his bizarre new reality into a bestselling novel. But can he actually finish a story for once? Or will his procrastination, crippling self-doubt, and newly complicated life get in the way? ________________ Tags:Genderbender,Slice Of Life,Male to female, Echii

Hello, and welcome to my first novel! This is my first attempt at writing a long-term story, so I expect that there may be some mistakes along the way. However, I am dedicated to improving, and I would be incredibly grateful for any feedback you have to offer. Your support means a great deal to me, and I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to read my work. This novel is an expansive adventure that explores countless realms and worlds, spanning across fantasy, medieval, modern, and many more settings. The universe within this story is vast—far beyond the scale of ordinary worlds. To give you a sense of its immensity, the world in this novel is nine times the size of an entire galaxy. The Three Great Layers of Existence The world is divided into three major layers, each unique in its nature, inhabitants, and power structure: The Lower Layer – The Realm of Demons This layer is home to demons, monsters, and dark entities that thrive in chaos. It is a realm of endless conflict and war, where only the strong survive. Spanning an area nine times larger than a universe, this is a place where terrifying beings plot, empires rise and fall, and legendary figures carve their names into history through blood and fire. The Middle Layer – The Mortal Realm The Middle Layer is a vast world nine times the size of a galaxy, where humans, elves, dwarves, and countless other races live. It is a realm of kingdoms, empires, magic, and technology, where countless heroes and villains shape the fate of civilizations. Some regions are steeped in medieval fantasy, while others have developed into modern societies. It is a realm of balance, where both divine and demonic influences clash in unseen battles. The Upper Layer – The Realm of the Gods The highest plane of existence, this realm is where only gods reside. It is a divine domain filled with celestial cities, sacred lands, and entities that possess power beyond comprehension. Like the Lower Layer, it is nine times the size of a universe, but unlike the chaotic underworld, this realm is shaped by cosmic order. However, even among the gods, conflicts and power struggles exist, as the fate of the entire multiverse often lies in their hands. A Universe of Interconnected Stories This novel is not just a single story—it is the foundation of an entire interconnected universe. It serves as the origin and the core of many other novels that branch off from it. Some of the stories that are connected to this grand narrative include: Knight's Pride – A tale of chivalry, honor, and betrayal in a medieval world where knights wield divine power. Hollowed – A dark and mysterious story about a forgotten hero who walks between life and death. Influence of the Dark God – A story of corruption, ambition, and the rise of an entity that seeks to reshape the cosmos. While these stories are deeply connected to the main novel, this novel is the true beginning—the origin of all things. It holds the secrets that link all the realms together and will serve as the key to understanding the vast multiverse. The foundation of the world, its history, and its vast scope will be introduced in the early chapters. However, the true beginning of the main story will start around chapters 12 to 13. These initial chapters will be dedicated to world-building, introducing key figures, and setting the stage for the grand journey that awaits. Final Thoughts Thank you for taking the time to read this introduction. If you have any suggestions, ideas, or feedback, I would love to hear them! I am committed to improving my writing and making this story as engaging and immersive as possible. I hope you will join me on this journey through a universe filled with adventure, mystery, and endless possibilities!

Title: Abyssal Chimes Genre: Cosmic Folk Horror / Time-Bending Thriller *Synopsis:* In the fog-shrouded valley of Corpse Falls Town, where pagoda trees bleed and construction sites exhale the breath of the dead, antiques dealer Lin Moyu becomes entangled in a temporal curse older than the Ming Dynasty. When a smuggled Bronze Bell covered in corpse wax appears in his shop, its cursed chimes fracture reality, revealing three overlapping timelines: a 15th-century massacre of shaman priests, a modern archaeological expedition’s disappearance, and Lin’s own complicity in a catastrophic urban development project three years prior. As the Bell’s vibrations summon corpse soldiers from limestone caves and warp digital devices into occult artifacts, Lin discovers every victim’s skull sprouts bronze roots connecting to an underground Bone Pagoda. The town’s "residents" are revealed as echoic phantoms—their deaths endlessly reenacted through cursed objects: QR codes that rewrite memories, livestreams broadcast from decaying eyeballs, and concrete mixed with ground funerary coins. Key horrors unfold through fractal revelations: - The Bell’s Sanskrit inscriptions are quantum codes predicting Lin’s own autopsy report - Construction blueprints from 2021 contain hidden blood sacrifice diagrams - Missing archaeologists are found fused with Ming dynasty burial silks, their smartphones playing war drums from 1423 The cosmic truth emerges through temporal bleeding: Corpse Falls Town exists in a "wound" between timelines, sustained by an ouroboros of guilt. Every character is simultaneously victim and perpetrator across centuries—Lin’s father designed the dam that awakened ancient curses, while Lin himself becomes the Ming general who first ordered mass executions to silence the shamans. *Themes:* - Guilt as a self-replicating cosmic force - Technology as modern necromancy (5G towers as spirit poles, cloud storage as soul jars) - Archaeological colonialism’s cyclical violence *Closing Paradox:* In the fractal finale, Lin must let the Bell annihilate all timelines—including his own birth—to break the curse. Yet the final page reveals this manuscript itself is a cursed object, its words rearranging to implicate whoever reads it in the next cycle of atrocities. *Comp Titles:* - *Annihilation* meets *The Ring* in Guillermo del Toro’s *Pan’s Labyrinth* - *Dark (Netflix)* collides with Junji Ito’s *Uzumaki* - *The Southern Reach Trilogy* rewritten as Ming dynasty occult procedural Hook: Every technological artifact you use—from subway QR codes to wireless earbuds—becomes a gateway to ancestral horror in this narrative ouroboros where reading the book implicates you in its curse.
