Lila Devereaux is a woman who has built an empire on ambition, control, and perfection. As the CEO of Devereaux Enterprises, she is untouchable, admired, and feared by those around her. But beneath the cold exterior lies a woman who has spent her entire life running from the ghosts of her past—driven by the weight of expectations from her powerful father and the relentless pressure to never show weakness. When Lila hires Ethan Blake, a seemingly ordinary man from a world far removed from her own, she expects him to be just another cog in the corporate machine. But Ethan’s quiet strength, sharp mind, and unflinching honesty challenge everything she’s built her life around. As he begins to navigate the complexities of her world with surprising ease, Lila finds herself facing the one thing she’s worked so hard to avoid—vulnerability. Caught between the high demands of her father, the unraveling pressures of her company’s expansion, and a growing attraction to Ethan that she can't ignore, Lila must confront the walls she's spent years constructing. Can she continue to hide behind her armor, or will she allow herself to be seen for the first time in years? Unlikely Orders is a gripping exploration of power, ambition, and the hidden cost of success. As Lila struggles with the balance between maintaining control and discovering trust, she must decide if she can let someone into her life without losing everything she’s worked for—or if love and vulnerability are luxuries she can no longer afford.

She believes in true love. He doesn’t believe in love. But what is love, really? She is the epitome of success—a star people look up to and admire. To him, however, she is merely a business transaction, a partner chosen to enhance his status. To his friends, she is just a fool in love, a pathetic figure begging for affection. Then shocking news emerges: her first true love returns, throwing him off guard. He realizes he has been nothing more than a substitute for her first love. He should be angry, but instead, he finds himself overwhelmed by emotions he can’t express or understand. Is this possessiveness, or is he finally learning to love her? She is determined to return to her first love, but inside, she is torn. Did she really treat him as just a substitute, or did she actually come to love him? What are they supposed to do when love is a question mark?

[PSA: this novel starts at chapter 16, since Sleepy Translations translated chapters 1-15 before they dropped it, so you can read those chapters at https://sleepytranslations.com/series/i-think-the-genre-has-changed/] I possessed a sub-male character in an Internet novel I only read eight pages of. He was also the main female character’s childhood friend, the sub-main character. I didn’t think it would matter anyway. I was going to live quietly without being involved with the main characters until I could return to the original world… “Welcome to Mirgun Training School, the best school!” The more you try to avoid, the more you get involved with the Four Great Heavenly Kings. On top of that, this was a world of a novel where supernatural powers exist. …Somehow, it seems the genre of this Internet novel I knew has changed.

Undying, this fierce storm, Rain falls down, cold, not warm. The silent prayers of those who die, Now echo nothing, but a cry, Those who've wronged him, fallen now, To murder killers, this his final vow.

Lucifer: What a beautiful and peaceful world.  System 4858: Miserable.  Lucifer: People here are nice too.  System 4858: Miserable, too miserable.  Lucifer paused, raising an eyebrow at the system’s unrelenting negativity.  Lucifer: Hmm?  System 4858: Yes! Yes, it’s beautiful and peaceful here. ‘But now... now that the great villain is here... who knows how long this peace will last? Miserable, too miserable.’  Lucifer smirked, his pale blue eyes glinting with amusement. His presence was overpowering, his aura so dense that the very air seemed to tremble under its weight. The world around him was serene, a gentle breeze stirred the trees, and the soft glow of the evening sun cast a golden hue over the landscape. It was a world that had yet to know chaos. A world yet to be touched by his unpredictable hand.  He stood at the edge of a cliff, gazing out at the quiet town below. The people looked so small, so fragile. Innocent, even. His gaze softened, but only for a moment, before that playful smirk returned. Lucifer did things as he pleased. He was neither bound by rules nor constrained by morality. Good? Evil? Such distinctions were laughable to him. his actions were dictated by whim and mood. He could be their saviour or their destroyer. It all depended on how the next moment struck him.  But who was he? And why did his very presence distort reality? How had he come to possess such unimaginable power?  System 4858, however, was not in the mood for philosophical musings. System 4858: Wait, what? It blinked, a metallic chime of confusion ringing through the air. Why did the modern world just turn into a fantasy setting? The tyrant hasn’t even started anything yet!  The system frantically checked the world’s data, only to find its structure bending and shifting in ways it couldn’t comprehend.  The once-modern cityscape was slowly morphing into something out of a fantasy, mythical beasts stirring in the shadows. It turned to look at its host.  Lucifer stood there, watching the transformation with an eerie smile. That smile alone sent a cold chill down the system’s core. It immediately spun around, its circuits sparking with panic, and sprinted away as fast as its non-corporeal form could manage.  System 4858: Lord God! Save me from this villain! But unknown to the terrified system, even the Lord God himself would be powerless to intervene in this matter. System 4858 could only shed metaphorical tears as it watched its host, the unstoppable force of chaos, begin to twist the world in ways that no one could have predicted.  The world’s Lucky sons who were meant to rise and fight back found themselves bowing to Lucifer’s will. He ordered the world’s protagonists around like mere pawns, and wherever he walked, destruction followed in his wake.  System 4858: Miserable, too miserable But even the unreasonable Lucifer had someone by his side who always smiled whenever Lucifer did something unpredictable.  One day, System 4858 accidentally saw the man playing with the darkness and was terrified. Soon, it was lying powerless in the man’s hands, staring at his smile System 4858 : Huh?! I knew it! Only a demon can accompany another demon.  The man with the red eyes : Hmm? System 4858: sob, sob. Miserable, too miserable

“Elise…” I called out to her. I wanted to say something but my brain could not form any words to utter. So, her name in my lips lingered and silence enveloped us. I glimpsed at her peaceful face and, as if on cue, my nerves relaxed. I gently touched her cheeks using my thumb then moved to her lips. Everything is probably an understatement of what I am willing to do for her. Beyond everything, that is, if it exists. I moved closer to reach the seat belt and quickly strapped her. I also adjusted my seat and strapped my own. Then, I started the car engine and drove off. My mind wandered off our first meeting. She didn’t appear promising to me when she descended the doorstep of their house. She walks extremely slow and she hangs her head down like a sinner. The cuffs of her long sleeves were constantly pulled to hide her hands. Then, she looked up to meet my gaze. Her eyes were puffy and it was very obvious that she spent an hour, and probably more, crying. Nevertheless, she smiled at me, giving me an access to view her white teeth. She, then, accepted the flowers that I was offering. Her nails were clean and bare, no paint. Then, she muttered her first word to me, “Thank you.” After that, she went inside.
