Marcella Valemont was a villainess wrapped in silk and thorns. The alluring, selfish daughter of the High Priest, she was forced into a cold marriage with the Black-bellied Duke Berith Montclair. She longed for power and would stop at nothing to claim the crown, even if it meant seducing the incorruptible Crown Prince Lucian and clawing her way to the throne into becoming the Queen. Until it all burned. Her ruthless schemes led to betrayal, rebellion, and ruin-- an empire on its knees, a virtuous king destroyed, and a rebellion led by the man she discarded. Desperate and full of regret, she barters her life with the Duke to save Lucian. In an interesting turn of events, Marcella gets to go back in time to fix her wrongs, save the man who was ruined because of her and hopefully stop the bloodthirsty rebel Duke Berith. She finds herself reborn as her 18-year-old self with a chance for a do-over and vows to do better this time. But the past does not forget. Nor does the devil in her husband’s skin. Secrets long buried begin to surface, and Marcella discovers that her former husband is far more than he seems—a man cloaked in darkness, harboring a purpose that threatens everything she holds dear. They say second chances come with thorns and to fix the past, she must trust the devil who destroyed it.

Lin Ruijiao dies with nothing but regret—and wakes up on the night she signed her soul away to Flower Entertainment. In her past life, she was just a replacement, a white moonlight substitute for the company's ice-cold film empress Ye Ruihuan. Now she's back at square one: broke, desperate, and staring at the same contract that once destroyed her dreams. But this time, she knows the game. Armed with knowledge of the future, Lin Ruijiao rockets to stardom, becoming the hottest rising actress in the industry. Yet something's different—Ye Ruihuan, the untouchable award-winning actress known for her aloof perfection, is acting... strange. On set, Ye Ruihuan personally "coaches" her through intimate night rehearsals. During a reality dating show, she manipulates the producers to eliminate the male guest and takes Lin Ruijiao on romantic island dates herself. In a wilderness survival program, she ensures they're partnered together, sealing their "partnership" with a cold kiss that leaves Lin Ruijiao's lips tingling... Meanwhile, Ye Ruihuan—the crowned film empress who's never shown interest in anyone—finds herself dreaming of Lin Ruijiao every night, waking up with a racing heart and flushed cheeks. She knows Lin Ruijiao resembles her—the woman from her past—but she also knows Lin Ruijiao isn't really her. Ye Ruihuan can see through Lin Ruijiao's perfect act, the way she plays innocent and compliant. But that's exactly what draws her in: watching this clever little rabbit navigate the predator-filled entertainment world with such beautiful, calculated vulnerability. It isn't until one dream becomes too real, too passionate, that Ye Ruihuan realizes the terrifying truth—she's actually fallen for Lin Ruijiao herself. The internet thinks they're enemies. Flower Entertainment's two biggest stars, locked in a power struggle as the rising newcomer threatens to dethrone the reigning queen. Their fandoms wage constant war, convinced their idols despise each other. Then Lin Ruijiao goes live, and Ye Ruihuan appears on camera, casually pressing a kiss to her lips: "Wife, give me a kiss." The internet explodes. Mini Theater: After Ye Ruihuan finally confesses her feelings directly: Lin Ruijiao: "Sorry, but I'm frigid. I can't do romance." Later, watching Lin Ruijiao cling to her passionately in the throes of desire: Ye Ruihuan: "What happened to being frigid?!" Romance is optional, but marriage is mandatory.

[Congratulations, Terran survivor #99598, for activating the Universe Assistance System!] Althea, along with the remaining 1% of the population of their home planet, stared at the holographic screen in front of them in confusion. Their galaxy was apparently ending, and suddenly announcements from an alien system appeared in their heads, telling them they would be permanently transferred to another world. The survivors were all very depressed. First, they were forced to survive in a zombie apocalypse, and now they had to survive a new world altogether? It just so happened that Althea was one of the few people who got the Lord Token, the ticket to controlling a territory---a supposed safe haven for her people. Althea looked at her very large stomach and sighed at an unknown future. Would she be able to build a good home for her children? And... would she and her husband find each other again? #Apocalypse, #Josei, #Romance, #BeautifulFL, #HandsomeML, #PowerCouple, #Infrastructure, #MagicSpace, #KingdomBuilding, #Adventure, #Pregnancy, #Game Elements, #System #LitRPG ____ Now an E-BOOK~!

"I shouldn't want this," she breathed, stepping back until her spine hit the cold steel of the railing. "I shouldn't want you." "Then tell me to stop," he murmured. "Tell me, Luna, and I will walk away." "You won’t." "You're right." His smile was sharp, dangerous. "Because you don’t want me to." "This will ruin everything," she said. Her voice cracked. "It already has." His lips were at her ear now. "And I’d do it all over again." "Kael…" "Say it," he begged. "I want you. Even if it destroys me."

Auri doesn’t care about repairing old books that no one bothers to read anymore. What he wants is to finish the game he’s been working on since forever. But after a fire nearly kills him, and then he wakes up in a fantasy world with a strange system that perceives the world as a grand library, he realizes that learning book restoration is a priority if he wants to ensure his survival. As he navigates the world of Arkanis, Auri finds himself entangled with dangerously captivating men who bear striking resemblance to the characters of his unfinished game. There’s Darius, the untrusting wanderer; Kaleo, the flirty inquisitor; Clyde, the bloodthirsty mage; Wrye, the indomitable underground fighter; Heirax, the stoic archivist; and Jiang Yijun, the cunning diplomat from the east. But among these men, the one with missing pages to his story holds the strongest claim to his heart. But in a world where history is being tampered by unforeseen forces, love is a dangerous gamble. It could overwrite the past, but at the risk of losing oneself. Yet, if Auri restores the pages of a deleted past, the world may fall apart beyond repair. Will there ever be room for love to flourish, or is it a doomed path from the very beginning? — * — * — This is a BL Otome-inspired story with 1 MC and 6 MLs: - MC X Grumpy ML (Darius) - MC X Flirty ML (Kaleo) - MC X Psycho ML (Clyde) - MC X Protective ML (Wrye) - MC X Intelligent ML (Heirax) - MC X Scheming ML (Yijun) Every ML can be a potential end-game ML and shares different dynamic with MC.

~Updates Daily~ (usually near 8PM ET / 1AM GMT) Single love interest Yuri! No lengthy misunderstandings over this fact~ --- After failing to ascend to the heights of Divinity despite all her preparations, an ancient cultivator finds herself not embracing the emptiness of the void - but the interior warmth of a womb. Her memories intact despite her spirit being a merest fraction of her height - and her trusted Astralism unchanged - she carefully starts over from an infant. How to navigate her family: [really easy with only two parents and an estate full of servants!] How to portray herself: [everyone likes 'sweet' kids and trusts (underestimates) 'weak' girls!] How 'quickly' to reveal the power she gathers: [this region is a 'backwater', let's just take it slow~] How her marriage was arranged before birth: [my parents adore me so at an appropriate time I'll just have it cance- oh?] Dealing with an 'amusing' deceit: ['he' looks worried still, but 'he' doesn't have to worry from me!] Confronting the 'boy' in private: [whatever their iffy plan is, I just obtained a husband-wife~] Even in a new life, | Elua er Goltbred | can't and doesn't *want* to change who she really is. A scheming cultivator. A possessive lover. Neither of those things had been a real hindrance to the Peak of Demi-God. Balancing the two in this life - without driving away the young 'boy' she decided would be hers - centers as much around helping | Qatrand er Yecine | find herself... as it is hoping to ease the fiance into how messed up the 'younger' girl honestly is. It's a good thing that the reborn cultivator can improvise with her ridiculous control of an Illusion Astralism - because plans fail and unexpected things happen when you're not *really* a genius. Like her Physique in this life allowing the lightest 'grip' to crack stone... | Qat | (the nickname picked almost instantly!) despite being a little stunted by her family environment early on, finds her future wife to be 'cute' on their first meeting. ... she really shouldn't have let on. It made her | El | kind of vain. Oh, and muscles. | Elua | : I just like looking at them, okay!? Is it so weird? People can have hobbies... - - - > Types of Cultivation // Spiritual (Soul), Physical (Body), Essence (Qi) > Aspect Trinity // Astralism, Physique, Element 'Ranks' Initial - Early, Mid, Late Lower Realms // Enchanter, Primalist, Breacher Upper Realms // Defier, Demi-god, Divinity - Echelons (First -> Seventh[Peak]) - - - Other Tags: #GL #Slice of Life #Comedy #TheStrongActingWeak #ChildhoodSweethearts (It counts!) Cover Art: AI Text Prompt Generation + title (etc.) added with an image editor. I also tend to do other 'fixes' in post! Potential trigger warnings: > A reincarnator MC that gets a little 'thirsty' a little 'young' but tries to 'keep her own pants on' until the proper age. > A toxic family environment willing to force an unloved child into the role of a crossdresser. A child that grew more than okay with it. > 'Pretty Good Dad' intentionally 'picked on' by his 'sweet daughter' for being a relatively 'minor obstacle'. Seriously, you were warned, average fathers with teenagers. Do not engage your trauma.

“You want to know about the mate bond we share?” His words stopped me midway as I turned around to face him. I didn’t say a word as I felt my heart palpitate in anticipation. “Beta Perez, I…” Before I could speak, he continued. “I have decided to never let a woman into my life, Miss. James. I have learned long back that they only serve as a distraction. Why would I need a mate if I could have any women I want? Am I right, Miss. James?” He asked me as I felt my eyes burn, but I held back my tears. “A mate is your better half, Beta Perez.” I choked out the words when he let out a humorless laugh. “According to me, you need a mate to satisfy your needs and maybe an heir in the long run. I think I can buy that with some money, Miss. James.” “Don’t you feel the mate bond, Beta Perez?” I asked him, but he didn’t answer. “I would have at least considered mating with you if you held a rank, Miss. James. But I don’t think I want a woman who is a nobody with a lonely mother and a runaway father.” I felt my chest rise and fall in anger while something broke within me. A tense silence engulfed us as we stared at one another. Join us in this journey where Aurora and Zander find love again as sparks ignite between them and desire crackles in the air, the tension builds, pushing them closer together. Will Zander’s feelings toward the mate bond transform as he grapples with the chemistry between them, or will fear of another heartbreak drive him to reject her? The future is uncertain, but one thing is clear: their destinies are intertwined in ways they never anticipated.
