Falling Into Your Smile Kiss

Elara Vance, a rising star in the cutthroat world of architecture, watches her meticulously built career implode in a single humiliating public scandal.

Just as the city's sparkling skyline appears to taunt her misery, a figure emerges from the darkness: Julian Thorne, the infamous, ruthless CEO of Thorne Industries and her family's archenemy for years. Julian provides Elara with a lifeline—a Faustian bargain that traps her in his gilded cage, supposedly to utilise her power for his own secret purposes. Cornered in a deadly game of cat and mouse where trust is something she cannot afford, Elara has to cope with Julian's dark charm and the intense, hot chemistry igniting between them. As lunar nights reveal unexpected vulnerabilities and shared histories, Elara is faced with a shocking truth: Julian Thorne is not only a cunning billionaire but also the very man who holds the secrets to unravelling her own death and, perhaps, to a destiny that unites them under the moon's eternally watchful eye. Will an unwilling alliance ignite a passion powerful enough to redeem them both, or will their clashing worlds tear them apart beyond redemption?

With her sarcastic inner voice, rare rebellious moments with friends, and one unexpected viral video, Eliana's carefully controlled world starts to crack. And then there's Hendrix Parker — the blind date she was supposed to ruin… but accidentally knew. He remembers her. She doesn’t. Or maybe she’s just not ready to. Behind the Perfect Smile is a romantic comedy with a twist of mystery, humor, and heartache. Watch Eliana’s messy, beautiful journey as she learns to say no... and maybe even yes to love.

She was once the cherished daughter of a respected professor, but now, she is nothing more than a shadow in the city-poor, struggling, and alone. Whispers follow her wherever she goes. Beauty like hers, they say, is a curse for a girl without power. They assume she'll do anything for money. But she is fire, untamed and unbroken. The university, once her father's legacy, is now under the control of a powerful man-a man who watches her with a cruel smile, waiting for the moment she will break. He holds the strings to her fate, dragging her into a silent war where wealth and control always win. Then, he returns. The boy who once played by her side, the boy who vanished the night of the tragedy, is back-no longer a friend, no longer the boy she knew. Now, he stands at the front of the lecture hall, wearing the title of Professor. His cold, unreadable eyes lock onto hers. His touch lingers like a ghost from the past. He helps her in the shadows, yet she feels his presence in every downfall she faces. Does he still hold the warmth of their past, or has he returned only to watch her drown? As secrets unravel and desires ignite, she must decide-fight against the power that seeks to destroy her, or surrender to the darkness lurking within the man she once called her own.

At a prestigious university in New York, psychology major Lena Hartley meets William Langston, a charismatic and sophisticated star of the art department. With his poetic charm and perfect manners, William seems like he stepped straight out of a romance novel. It doesn’t take long before Lena falls head over heels—and slowly opens up every part of herself to him. But the deeper she falls, the more suffocated she feels. Beneath William’s gentle exterior lies quiet control—he isolates her from others, monitors her phone, and dictates her social life. “I’m only doing this because I care,” he says with that ever-so-gentle smile. Just as Lena prepares to end the relationship, she discovers she’s pregnant. William is ecstatic. He promises to change, and for a while, their fragile relationship finds new peace. But it’s only the beginning of something far darker. After a sudden and suspicious miscarriage, William insists Lena "recover" at a secluded countryside estate. When she wakes up, she’s locked inside. He tells her, “This is our home now. I’m protecting you—from the world.” To everyone else, Lena is on a sabbatical abroad, grieving the loss of her child. In reality, she’s disappeared without a trace. During her captivity, Lena discovers the horrifying truth—William suffers from dissociative identity disorder, and she’s not the first person he’s tried to "love." Meanwhile, her aloof future stepbrother Sebastian has been quietly investigating William’s past, driven by a mysterious grudge that links the two men in ways Lena never imagined. When the truth is finally revealed, Lena realizes she didn’t meet William by chance. She was chosen—carefully, deliberately, and long before she ever knew his name. And the one man she never thought would save her… might be her only chance at freedom— and maybe even love.

He woke up in a field. No name. No past. Just a weak sigil — barely worth recording. In a world ruled by sigils and ranked magic, Lumen shouldn't matter. But his mark moves. It whispers. And it calls itself a System — a voice only he can hear. Why does it know his name before he does? Why does it warn him of things no one else can see? And why do some monsters call him "the next" before he even learns who he is?

When Wakely transfers to a new university, she has one goal: keep her head down, finish her final credits, and get out. The plan is simple: stay invisible, avoid drama, and leave behind her abusive past. But the moment she steps onto campus, she has no idea what is about to happen to her. She quickly crosses paths with Cora, a bold, orange-haired wild card who takes Wakely under her wing. Cora introduces her to the unspoken hierarchy that rules the school, warning her about the campus “gods”: the Walker brothers. Sinfully attractive, effortlessly powerful, and notoriously cruel, the Walkers are known as much for their charm as for their dangerous pranks. Students either worship them or fear them. Wakely? She wants nothing to do with them. But Waylon Walker, the darkest of the three, has other plans. Unlike the others, Wakely doesn’t care about his reputation. She doesn’t flirt. She doesn’t chase. And she certainly doesn’t fall for arrogant boys with too much control. That only makes her more fascinating to him. What begins as curiosity spirals into obsession. Waylon watches her, follows her, learns everything he can—and slowly starts crossing lines no one’s ever dared to before. As their worlds collide, Wakely finds herself drawn into a twisted game of desire, secrets, and violence.

Now, with the weight of betrayal, obsession, and legacy pressing down on them, Wakely must decide whether to run from the danger or face it head-on, with Waylon at her side. But some obsessions burn too hot to survive. And some secrets are never meant to be uncovered.
