As he turned to leave, a sense of disappointment washed over me. Not knowing his name or how to contact him felt wrong, but I knew I had to stick to my resolve. Just as he was a few steps away, he paused and looked back at me. "I'm curious, though, Melisa," he began, and I raised an eyebrow, intrigued.

Transmigrating with a system into a sadistic romance novel is a bit overwhelming for Paige at the age of 34 and being a Hikikomori. "You are the protagonist of this world." She stated while the system directly shocked her left and right for disclosing the storyline to the male lead on her first day. A system trying to satisfy the creator, a shut-in that can't take care of herself, and a teenage male lead catching himself infatuated with the wrong person. The more time passed, the more everything went out of control, as apparently nothing had been as it seemed. A dark version of the typical system trope. WARNING: BLOODY, GORE, ANIMAL ABUSE, MENTION OF RAPE, DRUGS, YANDERE....

Then seeing Luna, Benjamin comes to the mirror and fixes his hair, then signs a cheque of 10 crores and hands it over to Luna and says, "If you think this is not enough, ask for more." On hearing this from Benjamin, Luna angrily tears the cheque and throws it on Benjamin's face and says, "I don't want your money! Who do you think you are? If you are rich, can you force yourself on someone?" Luna covers herself with a blanket and goes to the bathroom. On hearing this from Luna, Benjamin's face smiles and Benjamin looks at the torn cheque and says, "Crazy girl!" After saying this, Benjamin takes out clothes from the wardrobe and gets ready by wearing a black 3-piece suit. After a while, Luna comes out of the bathroom wearing other clothes. Benjamin was sitting on the sofa, smoking a cigarette and looking at Luna. Luna looked at Benjamin once and tried to open the door to quickly get out of the room but she could not open the door, the door was closed and only Benjamin knew the password to open the door. Then Benjamin gets up from the sofa and comes to Luna and looking into her eyes says. "What is your name?" "I don't tell my name to strangers!" Luna said looking at Benjamin with disgust. Hearing this from Luna, Benjamin comes close to Luna's face and says. "Until you tell me your name, you cannot leave this room!" Hearing this from Benjamin, Luna turned her face to the other side and said. "Luna!" "Luna!" Benjamin said while holding Luna's waist and pulling her towards him. Seeing this, Luna started looking at Benjamin in surprise, then Benjamin opened the lock of the door. When Luna saw the door open, she immediately got away from Benjamin and went out of the room.
