Frame By Frame

Right now, Kayla’s life revolves around launching her model, Imani Miyaki, into stardom. But her plans are constantly at risk—not just from the dangerously charming Leo, a top model whose ruthless streak makes him as unnerving as he is captivating, but from her own complicated feelings toward Seojin, Leo’s enigmatic manager. Leo’s provocations test her control, and his darker, almost predatory edge keeps her constantly on guard, wary of what he might do next. At the same time, Seojin’s protective nature stirs something unfamiliar in Kayla, though she’s haunted by the fear that his care is born from their history, when he looked out for her in the industry as a mentor or big brother rather than as a lover. In a world where ambition, desire, and danger collide with every photo shoot, Kayla must keep her focus on Imani’s rise to fame, all while navigating the intense forces around her that threaten to unravel everything. ••• "Leo," Seojin's voice boomed through the studio. Everyone stopped to look at the short-haired, towering man who looked more like a military officer than a modeling agent. "Is this where you're supposed to be?" "Looks like your owner's here to rein you in," she smirked against her balled fist, and Leo narrowed his eyes at her. "And yet," he said, leaning close until his lips nearly brushed hers, "I could still maul whoever I please. Even you, Miss Manager." His fingers touched the front of her neck as he mimicked the jaws of a dog. His fingers pressed just enough to remind her of his strength as his gray eyes grew darker and his smile twisted. Kayla stared at him with an unamused look. "Right here," he breathed out with a satisfied exhale. "Seems you need a muzzle too," she whispered back, annoyed, though she did not react abruptly so no one would notice what he was doing. Seojin then grabbed Leo by the collar. He was the only one who could treat Leo with less than kindness without upsetting anyone, as he'd been doing it for a while. Kayla found herself looking up at Seojin, observing his tanned skin and the mole that peeked from his neck when he moved the right way. He still kept his hair cropped so short it looked almost like a buzzcut. "Apologies, Miss Micaela," he said to her, and she felt her chest pound at how his voice softened suddenly when he addressed her. "He's never where he's supposed to be." "It's fine; no one seems to mind Leo's presence," she said, looking away to prevent herself from giving anything away. "But we do have a tight schedule. Right now." "Right, we'll be getting out of your way," Seojin said as he dragged Leo out, who waved at Imani, who only smiled as she continued working. Of course, Kayla noticed. It was what bothered her more. "Imani's ready for the next set," one of the assistants informed her, snapping her out of her thoughts, though Kayla's eyes were still slightly stuck on Seojin's large frame leaving the room. "Good," she replied with a sigh and a smile. "Very good."

Framed for her fortune - The Disgraced Heiress Dazzling Comeback!!!

Sienna Winchester had it all – beauty, brains and billions as the heiress to New York’s most powerful business empires - Sky Group and Sky Corporation.

How the mighty have fallen,”. “I have nothing left. You’re my only hope,”. A cruel smile played on his lips. “Funny. That’s exactly how you left me three years ago,”. Sienna swallowed hard. “I know I hurt you -,”. “You destroyed me,” Sebastian interrupted his voice like ice. “Now you want me to save you?” He leans in close, his breath hot against her ear “Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t call the police and hand you over to them,”. ...

The Dark Side of Otter

Otter_44351147 is just another user on Games.net's Games Network. He's in a VR gaming clan called Nocturnal, and they're up against the Liquid Darkness next year at PAX Eternal 2080! But he was framed and the story stars you in it! You're Zero_Nocturnal! Eve is a beta VR online MMO PVP that has mob slaying and unique terms like PVP-R and PVP-G, where you can be PVP-R'ing and PVP-G'ing at the same time, but you must be strong to do that, because good critters don't give you evil points to grow your stats. R stands for regular, and G stands for good, because the good critters with the green frames give EXP, but no meter. Your DELO dictates your rank. Otter_44351147's was just 0 when he started. There are 65,335 million ranks to go! He got to #1, which is at the top, but was beat by #1, a hacker who framed him with an instant kill maneuver. Can he make it back to the top or will he be booted from his clans registry for falling below #16 DELO? DELO stands for Death Elevator Linking Order, because the more you die, the higher you can climb! You need to die and be reborn with higher stats to climb higher on the DELO meter. He's just 16 years old. The hacker was 19 years old. They're both Chinese and live in Fengxuan, a small city in northwest China. They both don't know each other, and hate each others guts. They want to go to Sweden for PAX Eternal 2080. That's a year away! This is their story... Of survival! And bloodshed! And maybe even catching Auria's arms! She must be out there, somewhere... The FL is Auria, a real beautiful woman, girl actually in real life, who they're both fighting for! She's 16 years old but they don't know her. Online, she plays the male character Reactor Blade, and Otter_44351147's Bison Fellow and the hacker's unnamed character will all be featured! It's my entry for the real winner of the WebNovel Rising Star! It features a sports team, VR, online game, futuristic world, a new video game we'd love to have!, and hopefully we can make in the future, devs?
