Witty FL x Adorkable ML + a cute bun + a talking crochet fox ---------- After the sudden death of her boyfriend, Leslie Song has been single-handedly raising her precious little daughter Calliope. It’s a difficult life, but it’s a happy one. A freak accident puts an end to that. As Leslie lies dying on the road, watching Calliope breathe her last, she curses her helplessness. Calliope’s crochet fox seems to hear her. It opens its mouth and asks, “Do you want to see your daughter again? If so, follow me. Her soul has already left for another world.” Leslie agrees. That’s the last thing she remembers before losing consciousness. When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself—or rather, her soul—standing beside her unconscious body on a hospital bed. “How is this supposed to help me find Calliope!” she exclaims. “This is not your body. Your body is dead. This is my original host, Charlene Li,” explains the toy fox. “You can possess her body to find Calliope, but if you do, you must finish her uncompleted mission for her.” “And what mission is that?” “To marry the second most eligible CEO in the city.” ‘This,’ Leslie concludes, ‘is a scam.’ But she has no other choice. ********** Meanwhile, the second most eligible bachelor in the city, Calix Xu, is patting himself on the back for thwarting his grandmother’s attempts to marry him off. After exhausting all of his tricks and excuses, he has resorted to marrying the comatose daughter of the Li family. Calix smiles, pleased with himself, "Aren't I smart? Grandmother can do nothing now." But… why is he seeing his newly-wedded wife hovering beside her own body? Before he can react, his wife—the moving one—floats towards him. "Husband! Help me find my child!" “Your child?” Calix asks weakly before doing the only reasonable thing he can do in such a situation. He faints. ---------- WSA 2024 entry!

Five years later, the duo crossed part in the most unlikely places and this time, the tables had turned as Kieran would do anything to get Edwina to notice him and most importantly, be with him again. Would Edwina continue to feign indifference to the man who had her heart and the father of her son or would she ignore him and move on with someone else?

Centuries ago, a mysterious energy called "Mana" revolutionized society, but it led humans to face an unprecedented crisis: the "Great Fall". After centuries of intensive use of mana, flora and fauna mutated, becoming more powerful and intelligent. Confronted with this threat, humanity takes refuge in the bastions, the 21 fortresses, to survive. Humans also begin to mutate, developing greater physical and intellectual abilities, as well as special powers called "systems" and "stigmata". However, a scientist warns of an even more devastating imminent threat: insects, organized and cruel, will mutate in turn. To counter this imminent threat, humans begin to study the beasts and learn to cultivate Mana like them. Mana exercises are created to accelerate this process and copy some of the characteristics, but changing exercises is difficult and risky. As the world struggles for survival, Rin, a semi-awakened with the power to perceive everything around him, finds himself at the heart of this turmoil, determined to find his place in a world in chaos and to protect those he loves from the surrounding dangers. ***************************************** Participate in WSA 2024

I'm not the greatest author, but I plan to consistently update this project, even if I have to write significantly slower than what you typically find on this platform. (My apologies!) Below, you will find some key notes that might be nice to see before becoming invested. PACE: 1 ch/week For now, I plan to write roughly 1 chapter / week. However, this might change in the future as I acclimate to writing more frequently. (Or if this story randomly becomes very successful.) MONEY: At least first 50 ch FREE I know I just mentioned this story becoming "successful", which typically entails paying the author and bla bla bla. BUT! I like the idea of this just being my story with no hooks or lines for a while. I plan to make the greater first chunk of the story free. TRENDS: ~~Overpowered~~ Honestly, I hate the concept of things being "overpowered". It reminds me of the first time I hacked my favorite childhood videogame. (It sucked the fun out of it completely.) That being said, I want this story to involve genuine challenges that take effort or risk to overcome. GENRE: Action, Mystery I would like this story to focus primarily around Action and Mystery. There might be some mild things tossed into the fray like comedy and romance, but don't expect anything too raunchy. DISCORD: -not yet implemented- I may eventually start a discord for this story. It could make a good library for supporting lore or artwork, as well as a place for people to discuss their theories or leave feedback. For now, this discord doesn't yet exist, but I will update you here when/if that changes. OTHER STORIES: Paused A few of you may have known me from my previous stories. I know, you may be pretty bummed that I haven't updated either in a really long time. There were some pretty hefty flaws in those stories that I kind of beat myself up over. (I actually formed this story while trying to restructure the surface world for 'Reincarnated as a Haunted Machine'.) For now, this will be my only work, as the world I live in has become rather complicated in recent years. Perhaps at some point, I will return to my other works, but for the foreseeable future, this story will be my one true love.

The daughter of two poor farmers, beautiful Li Xiao Niang is given a once in a life time opportunity to become the Crown Prince's bride, but when she gets married to the Prince, she finds that life in the Palace is not at all like she imagined and she is sorely under prepared for the difficulties ahead of her. Will she come out victorious or will she lose to the enemies hiding behind the shadows?

Seven months ago, my boyfriend broke up with me because he thought I was cheating on him with a male friend. I tried everything to explain, but he wouldn’t listen, and I was heartbroken.

I contacted him, followed his instructions, and he cast a love spell for me. To my surprise, within 24 hours, my boyfriend called me, apologized, and wanted to get back together. It felt like a miracle! If you’re facing relationship or marriage problems, I highly recommend reaching out to PRIEST OSAS. He was amazing!

“You will either strip and get on the bed, or go down on your knees and beg for my forgiveness. Choose one, princess.” Athena’s heart thundered like a runaway train as Hector’s dark, powerful gaze flickered over her semi-naked body. She tightened her fingers into fists and gave him a stubborn glare; “Neither! I will do no such thing. I will die before I let you touch me again, Hector.” His lips curved in a smirk and his golden wolf eyes gleamed dangerously. “Three years ago, I let you run away from me with my children. I let you do whatever you wanted. I’m sorry but your time for enjoyment has run out. You’re mine now. Mine to do as I please. Henceforth, we will be doing things my way.

To add to her list of sorrows, she falls in love with Hector Kensington, the Supreme Alpha’s son and the pack’s famous bad boy, and becomes pregnant for him after one wild, passionate night. Her world comes crashing down when she’s already eight months pregnant. Athena discovers that Hector never really loved her. He successfully tricked her into falling for him because of a stupid dare by his friends. Athena is humiliated before the entire pack when Hector denies fatherhood of the children in her womb. To top it all off, he publicly declares her cousin, Zara, as his one true mate. Pregnant, heartbroken and traumatised, Athena decides to leave the NightHunters Pack for good. She vows never to forgive Hector for what he did to her. Three years later, she succeeds in making a name for herself as an accomplished fashion designer. Imagine her shock when the boy who broke her heart three years ago returns as the owner of a multi-billion dollar empire and a world famous business tycoon. Hector Kensington is back for her and their children and he’s not taking “no” for an answer. He’s willing to employ every means possible, good or bad, to make sure she returns to the Night Hunters Pack with him. But he’s shocked to discover that Athena is no longer the shy, timid girl he’d once humiliated. She’s ready to fight tooth and nail to protect herself and her children from him. When horrible secrets begin to come to light and the underworld meets the world of the supernatural, will Hector succeed in his quest to win back his woman’s trust or will Athena black list him from her life forever…?
