The Obsessive Male Lead Is Actually Scary

I used to think obsessive male leads were kind of hot. You know, the intense stares, the undying devotion, the way they’d burn the world for the woman they love? Swoon, right? Wrong. That fantasy went up in smoke the moment I woke up in the body of Sonia Mitford. The heroine of The Crimson Devotion. The first obsessive romance fantasy novel I ever read. The one that ended on a mysterious hiatus. The one with Marius Wittelsbach, a charming, possessive psychopath who thinks an ankle shackle is a love language. Now I’m trapped in a velvet-draped prison, shackled to a bedpost like some porcelain doll in a gothic fairytale. And Marius? He’s worse than I remembered. Sweet, soft-spoken, and utterly unhinged. "You don’t need to be afraid. I’ll take care of you." Translation: I’ll murder anyone who blinks in your direction and serve you tea over their corpse. "Anyone who bothers you... anyone who looks at you the wrong way... I’ll get rid of them for you." I thought I was playing the role just fine. Smiling. Nodding. Pretending not to be horrified. But then, plot twist. Alessio Slovene, the forgettable side character, walks in looking like a golden retriever knight and drops this bomb: he’s actually the crown prince in disguise. And he’s been investigating Marius. Finally, a lifeline. Maybe. Because people are vanishing. The body count is rising. And every time Marius kisses my forehead and calls me “Nia,” I feel one step closer to becoming the tragic heroine in a blood-soaked love story. Obsessive male leads aren’t dreamy. They’re terrifying. And I might be in way over my head.

a world where everyone is born with the ability to harness Mantra—a mysterious energy that enhances physical abilities—individuals train to become Mantra Knights, warriors who uphold peace and justice. Only a select few, however, are gifted with a rare and powerful ability known as a Special Manifestation—unique powers that set them apart from ordinary knights. While all Mantra Knights can rise to high ranks through strength and skill, those with Special Manifestations hold even greater potential. At 16, Axel Killamon has dreamed of becoming a Mantra Knight, and now faces the opportunity to join the elite group, Swords of Symphony, led by the youngest and most powerful Lance, Xavier Gray. Xavier, known for his unmatched power and his uncompromising stand against evil, carries a heavy burden of responsibility. Alongside Axel is his rival and best friend, Asaya Vance, a brilliant fighter who wields Plasma Kinesis, a rare and devastating Special Manifestation. As the recruits undergo rigorous trials, they discover that being a Mantra Knight means far more than battle and honor. A dark organization known as the Hollow Ward, a secretive group of masked assassins, begins to emerge, targeting recruits and spreading fear. When a fellow recruit is brutally murdered by a member of Hollow Ward, the stakes become deadly. Axel, Asaya, and the rest of Swords of Symphony are pulled into a dangerous game, where even strength and strategy may not be enough to stop the growing threat. As the masked enemies close in, secrets about Special Manifestations and the true history of Mantra Knights start to surface. With growing danger and rising tensions, Axel must learn to control his own power and face enemies far more powerful than they could have ever imagined.

SCARED BY BLOOD ( Beast, God, Man?)

Scared by Blood – In a world where beast tamers hold great power, Samuel, a young tamer with an extraordinary and forbidden ability, embarks on a journey that will shape the fate of the continent. Unlike ordinary tamers who control living monsters, Samuel can tame the souls of dead beasts, gaining their powers and even commanding their bodies. The Beginning: Samuel lived a peaceful life in a small village until his mother revealed the truth about his father and his hidden power on her deathbed. Determined to grow stronger, he left home, trained in secret, and eventually registered as a beast tamer in the capital Zoria. There, he met his closest friends—Elaine, Marianne, Sylvia, and his childhood best friend, Lancelot. The Attack on Zoria & Awakening of Power: While on a job in the capital, Ezekiel (Vox Sanguinis), an infamous beast tamer, led an invasion using monstrous creatures known as the Malugna. In the chaos, Lancelot was killed before Samuel's eyes, breaking something inside him. Fueled by rage, Samuel swore revenge and awakened his Soul Tamer abilities. He summoned Bahamut, the Legendary Dragon, forcing Ezekiel and his forces to retreat. Rising Fame & New Challenges: As Samuel continued his journey, his power grew: He fought and tamed a Leviathan, gaining the ability to breathe underwater. He traveled with his party and Jason, a warrior from the neighboring nation of Sylphora. His abilities spread across the continent, catching the attention of kings, nobles, and enemies alike. He formed complex relationships, including a growing rivalry and romance with Lyra, a noblewoman who served the king. A World in Conflict: Samuel’s increasing power brought both respect and fear. Some saw him as a hero, while others saw him as a threat to the balance of power. The King of Zoria summoned him and his party for high-stakes missions, including investigating a leviathan threat in the city of Lorigna and defending the kingdom from external and internal enemies. But beneath the surface, a greater danger looms—a secret war between powerful factions, hidden forces that manipulate events from the shadows, and the mystery of Samuel’s own past. As he continues his journey, Samuel must face betrayal, loss, and the burden of his abilities. He will be forced to make difficult choices, knowing that every beast he tames, every enemy he defeats, and every soul he claims will shape his destiny. Is Samuel a savior, or will he become a monster feared by all? The world will soon find out.

After Annuling, She Seized the World's Heart

The chubby Qian Nuan was forced to break her engagement and became the laughing stock of the entire city. Even the peddlers on the streets and alleys made fun of her appearance and background. Her fiancé told her, “With your puffy face, you look like a pig. I feel like puking when I see your unshapely waist and love-struck expression. Let’s get a divorce! Don’t pester me in future!” Qiao Nuan sneered. “Fool.” In the end, Qiao Nuan successfully slimmed down and transformed into a stunningly beautiful goddess. Her fiance prepared the most romantic courtship ceremony for her and knelt on one knee in front of her. "Nuan Nuan, I was wrong in the past. Can you forgive me? I'm willing to give you the best in the world." Qiao Nuan looked down on him. "I've never hated you, so I can't really say that I'll forgive you, because you don't deserve it." Her fiancé flew into a rage out of humiliation. "Don't forget, you're just a good-for-nothing whom I've broken off my engagement with, and you even have a son who doesn't even know who his father is. Other than me, who else would want to marry you?" That night, an internationally renowned doctor said to her, "Miss Qiao, would you go on a date with me?" An international superstar with millions of fans told her, "All of you treat me like a prince charming, but do you know? Qiao Nuan is the goddess of my heart, the only goddess!" And that scary mafia who controlled everything also stood out, "My wife won't have to trouble you to jump out and propose marriage after marriage. Also, who said that my son's father is unknown?"
