Elise Bauman And Natasha Negovanlis

A thirty-year-old man, handsome with a height of 180 cm, a graduate of a prestigious American university, holding a master's degree in finance. He is an elite returnee with an annual income in the millions, owns a house and a car, and is debt-free. He is now seeking a same-sex friend with the following criteria: similar age, good-looking, a university degree or higher, a stable job (preferably in a public institution or government), a gentle personality, and preferably someone who can cook. This familiar flyer-style introduction and the factory-like resume are so stereotypical that he almost feels like a fraud despite his prestigious background. Ryan He: "Mom, where did this flyer come from?" His Mom: "From the people’s park matchmaking corner." Ryan He: "Complete scam. Don’t contact them." His Mom: "Too late." CP: Ryan He x Nathan Deng Nathan: The teacher, the "top" (seme), athletic and caring. Ryan: The "bottom" (uke), a financial elite with a slightly unhinged personality. There’s no emotional baggage, no messy exes. The story begins after a breakup with a real ex. 1v1, mature themes.

Despair in gratefulness, relief in agony. That's how her world can be described, as she finds calmness in tragedy.

“Darling, you are the moon that gave light in my darkest times.” She gave up finding a man who could make her heart skip a beat and fall in love; Hailey Hillson accepted her best friend’s marriage proposal but then changed her mind after hearing another woman say she couldn’t please a man in bed. 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.

The world's messed up. Monsters started falling from the sky. Flesh-eating creatures that almost wiped out Humanity.But then, people began to awaken strange abilities—Gifts, they called them. Supernatural powers that gave us a fighting chance. With these new abilities, we fought back, and for a while, it seemed like we were winning.

Caspian inched closer until his lips were mere inches away from Davina's, reeling her in to close the nonexistent gap between their mouths. "Have you ever been kissed, Dimitri?" He asked. Before Davina could lose control after Caspian's cold lips lightly grazed hers, she pushed him away and hurriedly stood up. "My Lord, this is highly unethical!" Her real voice nearly slipped out amid the chaos. "What's unethical about this?" Caspian's face lifted to form an innocent yet devilish smile, he seemed to be enjoying the reaction he got out of her. Flustered, Davina turned her back to him and took deep breaths before speaking more composedly. "We are both men and it wasn't ethical of you to try and... kiss me." The last bit came out as a whisper blown away by the wind. Caspian's chuckle echoed through the woods as he stood up from the bench and faced Davina with a smug look on his face. "Tell me, Dimitri, was I really trying to kiss a man just now?" "W-what do you mean?" Davina stumbled backward as she stared at Caspian in shock and disbelief, unsure of what to do to save herself from that situation. "Let me rephrase my question."

Where everyone could do something they do without any hindrance. He is reaching 28 years old and working in a ordinary company. Completely ordinary until one day, he died by getting hit by a car. ( If he doesn't die, how did this story happened? ) He thought that's the end and succumbed to the ethereal dark and calmness. Then suddenly there's something waking him up even though he can't feel nothing. When he opened his eyes, unfamiliar ceiling greet him. A apartment ceiling, no something more like a suite as the details and furniture around his room looked expensive. At first it was confusing and after a long thought on what happened.

Even the overpowered protagonist got defeat in one hit. The world got split in half just by a gesture from his finger. Desperation and despair washed over his face. Maybe there's a reason he got transmigrated there. It's all because of his abilities, adaption. Using that abilities, he tried to fight these entity. During that fight, he able to save one person but failed to save another one person. Even though he win after a long fight. Everything already been destroyed. Until, in front of him appeared a holographic blue screen. With one word attached on it. [ RESTART ]

Elena had always sought adventure, yearning to explore the world and embrace all it had to offer. But that dream seemed impossible due to her very existence.

Until one day, an opportunity arose: the chance to enter the academy. At 18 years old, she finally took that step, and it was there that she met him. He was breathtakingly beautiful, in a way that made Elena question how anyone, especially a man, could possess such beauty. She found herself captivated by him, unable to look away. "Elena, will you be my mate?" he asked, holding her tightly and gazing into her obsidian eyes. "Yes," Elena replied, her heart racing with excitement. She couldn't believe it had taken him so long to ask. But with that single word, "yes," she—a being that shouldn't exist—had fallen into the hands of another. The world had no idea what he was. He wasn't a werewolf, human, or vampire, but he was no less powerful. What could possibly go wrong? What was he? All she knew was his name: Dave Atlas.

Someone once remarked that economic inequality tends to perpetuate itself, with wealthy individuals increasing their wealth while those with fewer resources struggle to make ends meet. In simple terms: the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. This phenomenon can be observed across various societies and historical periods, often driven by several factors. But this story is not about socioeconomic disparity... Maybe some of you have experienced this and felt the weight of such imbalances personally. Perhaps one of you could step up and lead the transformation? Then...

“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.
