*Slow Burn Historical Fantasy Novel* Elise wollte sich gerade in das Kleid umziehen, das in der Ecke ihres Bettes lag, als sie ein leises Klopfen an ihrer Tür hörte. Neugierig drehte sie den Türknauf und sah einen großen Mann vor sich aufragen. "Meister Ian!" rief sie. Ian lächelte mit dem üblichen schelmischen Grinsen, das er immer benutzte. Seine purpurroten Augen wanderten ein wenig durch ihr Zimmer und entdeckten das schwarze Kleid über ihrem Bett, dann richtete er seinen Blick auf die Frau, die vor ihm stand. Er trat einen Schritt vor und sprach. "Woher haben Sie dieses Kleid?" "Mr. Harland hat es mir geschenkt." antwortete Elise und reckte den Hals, um zu sehen, wie sich Ians Brauen in seiner Eleganz zusammenzogen. "Weißt du, warum ein Mann einer Frau gerne ein Kleid schenkt?" Er gab das Rätsel auf, bei dem sie immer zweimal überlegen musste, bevor sie antwortete. Doch dieses Mal fand sie keine Antwort und schüttelte stattdessen den Kopf. "Ich weiß es nicht." Sein Grinsen wurde betörend, als hätte sich tief in seinen scharlachroten Augen etwas geregt. Langsam ließ er seine Hand über den Kragen ihres Kleides gleiten, was ihr einen kalten Schauer über den Rücken jagte, der sie für einen Moment erschreckte, da es eiskalt war. Nachdem er die ersten beiden Knöpfe ihres Kragens geöffnet hatte, neigte er den Kopf nach unten und flüsterte ihr ins Ohr. "Weil sie derjenige sein wollen, der den Stoff auszieht." Er hielt inne und küsste ihren Hals, wobei sich die blasse Haut rötlich verfärbte, bevor er seine Bewegung zurückzog, sie mit seinen Augen fixierte und gemächlich antwortete. "Leider kannst du das Kleid da drüben damit nicht tragen." Er gluckste und reichte ihr eine Schachtel in die Hand. "Die gute Nachricht ist, dass ich ein Kleid für dich vorbereitet habe." Elise war ein verfluchtes kleines Mädchen, das Geister sehen konnte. Ihre Familie hasste sie und schmiss sie von einer Adoptivfamilie zur nächsten. Doch das Unglück kam nicht allein. Als sie von ihrer Tante aufgezogen wurde, wurde sie als Sklavin verkauft. Als sie dachte, sie würde nur ein Opfer für den Zauberer werden, wurde sie von einem Mann gerettet, dessen Identität ganz anders war als die eines normalen Fabelwesens. *** Dieses Buch ist ORIGINAL und keine Übersetzung Autorendiskord beitreten: https://discord.gg/YPKueb4

When it was just a week away from their wedding day, Bryan got back together with his ex-girlfriend Eva Lan. Hailey broke up with Bryan and called off their wedding. But then, she discovered an interesting fact about Eva Lan—she is married. ‘Did her husband know she was cheating on him?’ * After the heartbreak, Hailey focused on completing her LIFE PROJECT. To achieve it, she went overseas, where she came across Vincent Lopez Shen, the CEO of Shen Group Construction Firm, who later offered her a contract to pretend as his mistress to get his wife's attention. As she also had an ulterior motive, she signed the contract without thinking twice. However... What will happen after she lives with Vincent Shen under one roof when he is Eva’s husband—the woman who destroyed her relationship with Bryan? Will Vincent find out her secret regarding her true identity? Would she find out the secret Vincent keeps that is related to her? EXCERPT: “Miss Eva Lan, why won’t you sign the divorce papers if you are happy with someone’s fiancé’s bed?” Glancing at her with disbelief, Bryan turned his head to the woman inside his arm; he asked, “What the hell is this, Eva?” Hailey cut in. “Oh, you didn’t know Miss Lan is a married woman, my dear ex-fiance?” Her words are a bomb to Bryan. “You shut up! Don’t believe her, Bryan! She is just jealous of me because you love me over her!” Hailey scoffed, a playful smile playing on her lips; before she could spout another word, the woman in front of her paled like a ghost. “Vincent, what are you doing here?” Horror, panic, and shock linger on her face to see her husband appear out of nowhere and his arms wrapped around the girl’s waist. Vince shoots a cold glare at his wife, and he feels no familiarity between them. He withdrew his gaze from the two people before them. He turned his head to the woman standing next to him, he looked at her with tenderness in his eyes, and with a loving tone, he asked her, “Darling, who upsets you? Tell me, and I will remove them from your sight in an instant.” Hailey lifted her chin. As her eyes flickered, her cheeks were flushing scarlet red. Coquettishly, she whispered in Vincent's ear, “Darling, Miss Lan bullied me. She said I couldn’t satisfy a man in bed. She told me I didn’t know how to… do that….” Vincent contorted the corners of his mouth and beamed. “That’s interesting.” “What do you mean by that?” she pouted. “What I am trying to say is… You are a fast learner, and all you need is the right partner.” * * * ~Be ready for many twists ~Novel was ENDING at Chapter 400.

What if the peaceful life you cherished was ripped away in an instant? For Kai, a carefree gamer, waking up in a world that shouldn't exist—a world he only knew from his favorite RPG—was the beginning of an unimaginable nightmare. Transported to a realm teetering on the edge of destruction, where gods and demons wage eternal war, Kai finds himself in the body of a 12-year-old boy with no past and no power. With his status unawakened and death lurking around every corner, survival seems impossible. That is, until a fateful encounter with the enigmatic Headmaster of Asgard Academy unlocks his dormant potential. Awakened as an assassin with unparalleled stealth and deadly precision, Kai must navigate a world brimming with danger and secrets. But as he uncovers the truth about his newfound powers, he realizes he’s more than just another pawn in this game of gods and demons. He’s a wild card in a rigged deck, a shadow in a world of light, and a key to a prophecy that could either save or doom them all. Faced with enemies who can tear apart worlds and allies who may harbor their own agendas, Kai must grow stronger, faster, and sharper than ever before. But can a lone assassin rise to the challenge when the weight of the universe rests on his blade? Reborn in Shadows: The Chosen Assassin is a gripping tale of survival, power, and destiny in a realm where the line between game and reality is dangerously blurred. If you crave action, mystery, and a protagonist who defies the odds, this is the story you've been waiting for. In this world, trust is a luxury. And weakness? It’s a death sentence.

[Excerpt] ‘Ding’ [You dreamed slaying a dragon.] [Congratulations to obtain a legendary dragon slayer skill card!] “My dreams… they are becoming my cards.” * \/ * “I used to hate nightmares, until that day when those nightmares became my power.” What’s more terrifying? Being the one who could see the future but couldn’t do anything to change the outcome, or the one who was in the future and couldn’t do anything to change it? Oscar experienced both. Now reborn into the body of the world’s protagonist, the weight of this future falls on his shoulders. For the survival of the universe, for his own survival, he must become strong. So strong, he could change the future. * \/ * What to expect: • Male MC (Main Character) • Overpowered protagonist • Badass protagonist • Deck building with a unique twist and infinite possibilities • A super righteous MC, whose morality can be interpreted in different ways depending on the perspective • A video game setting, with the MC initially being an NPC character, though the game will merge with the real world at some point • Character-driven story with a focus on character building, so expect plenty of slice-of-life moments sprinkled throughout the story
