Does There Have To Be Romance In A Gothic

'A self-centric Female Lead, lost-in-love Male Leads, and useless extras who will die. On top of it, this world will not be here for long because of that ancient threat. So, what should I do now?' What kind of world was a world of Female-Oriented Fantasy romance? One filled with tinted glass and roses? Life should have been easy here, right? Wrong! Layla had read this book before, and she knew what happened. "Those useless leads left this world in a shamble! I need to do something about it before it gets destroyed. If I am going to live here, I need to ensure this world stays alive long enough. Who has time for romance when the world will end soon?" Her goal was set, and her life was laid out. Layla was going to use whatever she could to secure her second life. Everyone was a useful piece from here on, and Layla used them well to achieve her end goal. This might be a world based on a fantasy romance, but she would ensure it would not repeat it's ending. ______ Note: It has a strong Female Protagonist as the MC. No romance, no harem, no yuri.

The dreams pull them back to 1940s France, into the heart of World War II, where they see themselves as Marie, a brave young woman fighting for the Resistance, and David, an American spy embedded within enemy ranks. Each night, the dreams grow stronger, filling them with memories that feel intensely real.

For this, a secretive organization exacted a punishment as severe as it was symbolic: transforming the perpetrators into what they despised most. Turned into a woman through a dark ritual, Amelia finds herself trapped in a body she never asked for, her mind besieged by new impulses and emotions driven by an ancient and perverse power. Sold to Jason, a powerful yet enigmatic CEO, Amelia faces a heartbreaking emotional contradiction.

As she attempts to rebuild her life and prove she's more than just a pretty face, Amelia is caught in a complex power struggle between Inmaculada and Jason’s interests, family conflicts, and the master's demands.
