What, there's also a top-tier fiancé from a leading Beijing family? Can she call off the engagement? . The magnate cornered her against the wall, pulling her into his embrace, "What do you think, Madam?" "I'm so poor in studies I fail everything, I don't deserve to join an affluent family." The magnate pulled out her perfect-score college entrance exam paper. "I'm good for nothing, incapable of everything." The magnate lifted the veil off her identities as a Divine Doctor, designer, hacker, composer... and so on. He tenderly quipped, "I'll work hard, to prove myself worthy of you, Madam." 【Since my childhood, I have been without desires or demands, but the moment I laid eyes on you, for that brief second, I prayed to the gods and Buddhas—I yearned for you—Qin Jingchen.】

Excerpt: Ethan's eyes gleamed with amusement as he whispered in Ava's ear, "You know, wife, you're adorable when you're trying to be stern." He was leaning against the wall, his arms crossed, his gaze fixed on her with an intensity that made her heart race. Ava's eyes flashed with irritation, her cheeks flushing. "Ethan, stop teasing me. We need to focus on our plan." She tried to sound firm, but her voice trembled slightly, betraying her frustration. Ethan's grin only grew wider. "Oh, come on, Ava. You know I'm just trying to lighten the mood. You're so serious all the time." He pushed off the wall, his movements fluid and graceful, and took a step closer to her. Ava's hands clenched into fists, her voice firm. "This isn't a game, Ethan. Our lives are at stake. We can't afford to make mistakes." She tried to sound convincing, but her eyes kept drifting to his, and she couldn't help but notice the way his eyes crinkled at the corners when he smiled. Ethan's expression turned innocent, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Who says I'm not taking it seriously? Maybe I'm just trying to distract you from the tension between us." He raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on hers, and Ava felt her heart skip a beat. "There's no tension, Ethan. We're just allies in this marriage pact," she lied, trying to sound convincing. But her voice was barely above a whisper, and Ethan's knowing gaze made her feel like he could see right through her. Ethan's chuckle was low and husky. "Keep telling yourself that, Ava. But I see the way you look at me sometimes... like you're trying to resist a temptation." He took another step closer, his eyes locked onto hers, and Ava felt her pulse race. "I don't know what you're talking about," she lied again, trying to sound convincing. But her eyes darted away, betraying her. Ethan's whisper was soft, his breath caressing her ear. "Oh, but I think you do, Ava. And soon, you'll have to admit it." His words sent shivers down her spine, and Ava knew she was in danger of falling for her husband's charms, even though she refused to admit it. The air was charged with tension, their banter a delicate dance of denial and attraction. And in that moment, Ava knew she was walking a thin line between resistance and surrender.

"Lyra Everdawn: Las Sombras del Crepúsculo" En un mundo donde la magia es la esencia de todo lo que existe, la princesa Lyra Everdawn vive atrapada en el vacío de su propia indiferencia. Renacida en un reino gobernado por la magia, el combate y la política, Lyra se ha desconectado por completo de lo que otros consideran las razones de la vida: el amor, el poder, el honor. Para ella, todo es una ilusión pasajera, una trama que, aunque jugada por muchos, carece de significado. Con su belleza helada, su alma vacía y sus ojos de azul cristalino, Lyra observa el mundo desde la distancia, sin esperanza ni deseo. El matrimonio arreglado con el príncipe Kaelen Draelthorn, un acuerdo entre reinos, no es más que otro juego de poder en el que no tiene interés, pero al que está obligada a participar. Sin embargo, todo toma un giro inesperado cuando Alex Albión, un misterioso estudiante recién llegado a la Academia de Magia de Everdawn, entra en la vida de Lyra. Con una actitud despectiva y un aire de diversión insostenible, Alex se comporta como si todo esto no fuera más que un juego de citas, casi como si estuviera jugando un otome, un romance ficticio de su propia invención. No le importa el caos de la corte ni las expectativas que pesan sobre Lyra, pero su presencia intrigante empieza a desatar una serie de eventos que alteran la frágil indiferencia de la princesa. Alex, con su desdén hacia las normas del mundo y su constante sonrisa juguetona, parece estar perfectamente consciente de algo que Lyra no puede comprender: el destino de ambos podría estar entrelazado de una manera que desafía las leyes de la realidad. ¿Es posible que Alex Albión sea también una reencarnación, atrapado en este ciclo eterno junto a Lyra? Si es así, ¿qué busca realmente, y por qué juega con las emociones de todos a su alrededor como si fuera un simple entretenimiento? A medida que Lyra y Alex se cruzan en el terreno de la magia y la política, se revelan secretos ocultos, y otros estudiantes misteriosos, igualmente fascinados por Lyra, comienzan a emerger. Estos estudiantes, algunos con habilidades únicas y otros con un amor casi devocional por la princesa, la ven no solo como una figura de poder, sino como una diosa a quien adorar. ¿Será que los seguidores de Lyra, atrapados en sus propias ilusiones, buscan algo más allá de la magia o el deber? ¿O quizás están buscando una verdad más profunda que ni siquiera ellos comprenden? "Lyra Everdawn: Las Sombras del Crepúsculo" es una historia de misterio y nihilismo, donde el amor es solo una farsa, la magia es un medio vacío, y el destino parece solo un juego sin fin. Con Alex Albión y otros misteriosos personajes que parecen saber más de lo que dicen, Lyra deberá enfrentar no solo las expectativas de su reino, sino los secretos oscuros de su propia existencia. ¿Serán estos estudiantes como ella, reencarnaciones atrapadas en una trama infinita? ¿Y será posible que incluso en la indiferencia y el vacío, puedan encontrar algo que desafíe el fin de todo?

But life finds its way to completely flip his world upside down. Now he has to deal with crazy situations, ranging from embarrassing himself in front of hundreds of people to falling in love in the most random moments like every romance story out there. Life for this boy really turned anew. **This "novel" is a combination of the authors experience throughout high-school and his delusions he always had in his mind in which he wants to pour it out in this story** DISCLAIMER (and authors note) This is my first time ever writing something big and ambitious. Just writing to get a hobby or something. AND IT WILL SUCK. MY WRITING IS ABSOLUTE TRASH. I HAVE NO UPLOAD SCHEDULE SO CHAPTERS WILL BE PUBLISHED RANDOMLY Honestly I just wanted to put all my wishes and delusions of what I wanted highschool to be like for me. And I thought that I might as well share some of the experience I had in my actual highschool life so I can have a mix of reality and imagination in this story. Guess we'll see how that'll work out and also see how far this story will go. I hope I can at least finish it. I don't expect anyone to read it. After all, I can say that this is like my diary and memory book for me to read back and smile at the experience I went through during highschool. Making it public in case anybody wants something to relate to I guess :P

Salvation. Sanctuary. A safe place. Somewhere he can be safe and free. Somewhere away from abuse, from his bullies, from harassment, from false judgements... from ropes... and whips... somewhere away from pain. Somewhere they will never reach him. That is what Aqueo Harp had always been wishing for. So when he finds himself dying and waking up in a world of magic, a world completely different from the one he had, he views it as a blessing in disguise. It was the thing he had been asking for—to escape from the cruel fate of an orphan like him in his previous world—a life under the mercy of a human trafficking organization that plunged him in a cycle of recurrent depression, back-and-forth at the local detention center, and other stuff that are known to be interrelated with juvenile delinquency. With that in mind, Aqueo swears to never go back to his miserable old life and live an opposite life in the new world, one that is devoid of any trouble he had in the past.

WARNING: Mature Content The story of a knight who has fallen in love with his queen. It was nothing but that, a simple plot for a fairytale, or was it? He stood proud at seven feet, everything looked minuscule in his sight. He towers above all knights who looked at him with disgust and alarm. He was one of the rebels not long ago, but for an undisclosed reason, he has betrayed his so-called 'brother at arms' for a seat at the round table. People murmured whenever he passes them by, the atmosphere itself was laced with terror as this all muscled barbarian held his head high. Panic in the hearts of many was evoked by his presence alone as he stood before the queen who was forced to face him. "My queen," he knelt before her, and even yet the queen had to look up from her throne to meet his eyes. The frail queen was very small compared to him, her fragile countenance barely reached five feet and her innocent face makes her look like a child. He took in the vision of her as she sat there, trying to look brave as she met his eyes. His queen, the reason why he risked it all and will risk it all again. She sat on the throne judging his motives and all the while fearing him. Was she disgusted by him too? He can't tell. The crowd disappeared and all thoughts from his mind were gone as he was faced with her. She has dark auburn hair that reached past her shoulders, small lips that curled into a thin smile, and eyes that expressed her immense disgust and anger for what she had labeled him in her mind - one of the reasons for the destabilization of her kingdom. He wants it all, all of what she offers. Her beauty, her brilliance, her frailties... at that moment he realized, he wanted all of her.
