I loved my childhood friend, but gave up on my bottled-up feelings for ten years so she’d be happy… I’m not the one she loves, after all.... more>>

My father ostracized me. Not only did he not help me when my sister took my fiancé, but he also ordered me to marry a man with the worst reputation, known as the “Ugly Duke”.... more>>

“Oh, it looks like fun!”

Lucrezia, who had been mistreated since childhood, took this as a trial of love and, with misguided positive thinking, did as she was told and set off to meet the Duke. However, the man who greeted her was not at all like the rumors she heard about, and his appearance was strange.

“―Oh? Is there anything wrong with this person?”

I thought a fun ordeal awaited me, but there were no signs of it at all, and the “Ugly Duke” has regained his true appearance and is happy as one can be.

Meanwhile, Lucrezia's family and former fiancé realized how important a role she played after she disappeared, but it was already too late and the whole kingdom was heading for ruin. <<less

In what seemed like another usual attack from demons, Nemo Light was heading towards a shelter when he ran into Oliver Ramon, who was heading back to town to find his father, being chased by a demon. In the process of saving him, he inadvertently formed a contract with it.

As they returned to town, they found it ablaze, and while trying to figure out why, they were wrongly accused of being demon worshippers and were hunted down by the church.

With no options left, they set about becoming mercenaries to survive while slowly discovering that their ordinary lives may not be so ordinary.

Thus began the adventure of a gentle knight and an unwilling mage. <<less

The princess of a neighboring country who stole the prince that the little mermaid saved…
That was me.... more>>

I believed that it was me who saved him, but reality was cruel.

When the little mermaid died and the truth was revealed—

“It wasn’t you.”

The man who once said he loved me abandoned me after saying these words.
Just because I wasn’t the one who saved him.

From then on, he started to ignore me and shut me out.

I couldn’t endure it any longer, so I chose to die. But somehow, I returned to the past.
So I made up my mind.

* * *

Instead of going through that again, I looked for a certain man.

Robbed of his memory and exiled from the magic tower, but more powerful than anyone else.

The lord of the magic tower.
Alejandro Diarmuid.

“The memories you’ve lost. I’ll help you find them.”

So help me.
So that I can escape from this fate.

“No one else but you can save me.”

You can save me.
Only you. <<less

[Hello.]

She had woken that thing, no, him up.

[I am Nathaniel.]

He said.

[People here call me ‘The End’.]

A beautiful man, like the king of winter, smiled in boredom and with arrogance.

* * *

“Let me out.”

Nathaniel stretched out his hand, but Kyrie rejected it. However, the white hands with prominent bones slowly and softly touched her ears and cheeks.

[You’d better not think about it. If you don’t want to be tied up.]

Instead of answering, she bit Nathaniel’s fingers.

He lowered his head slowly and put his head against her forehead.

The blue eyes in front of her seemed more ecstatic as Kyrie’s purple eyes shook with anxiety.

[Take off your clothes on your own.]

Nathaniel looked down at his ruined sleeve and smiled fiercely.

[I know how to put a leash on you if you do something s*upid again.] <<less

“No! Please don't!” ... more>>

He moved his hand smoothly over Vivian’s arm and swiftly swept her lips against his.

Charmed by her tiny defiance, he slid his hand and stopped precisely under her curvy waist.

“Ah… … !”

“What's wrong? You knew it would come to this as well.”

Though his words were intimidating, his touch was full of warmth.

As if his temporary blindness was just a lie, his hands were vigorously seeking out her weaknesses and began his ruthless attack on them one after another.

Vivian was unable to stop her moans under the hands of his lascivious and stimulating touches.

On the very same bed that she had first climbed up to nurse his health, now it was herself that had been laid flatly to be enjoyed by him.

Even though she knew that the quiver she felt in her lower abdomen was wrong, she couldn’t help but to crave for his touch even more.

“We are going to marry later, anyway.”

He smiled sweetly as he kissed Vivian. Alas, Vivian was silently crying inside.

The Grand Duke wasn’t aware that despite in a dream, she was never the fiancée whom he will be married to. She was merely a stranger. <<less

In a Mary-Sue novel, the readers all liked the Devil Venerable, the second male lead who devoted himself whole-heartedly to the female lead. However the female lead only loved the male lead who abused her physically and mentally.... more>>

Readers: Why doesn’t the female lead like the Devil Venerable?!

Devil Venerable: This Venerable also wants to know. But what I really want to know is why I even like the female lead at all.

In order to understand why the female lead wasn’t attracted to him, the self-conscious Devil Venerable brutally interrogated the entire cast of characters from the novel.

Background characters: I have so many things I want to say but I don’t dare to say it to his face!

–

After obtaining the book, the Devil Venerable discovered that the book described the world he lived in.

Ruan Tian had been in love with Shen Shu for a long time. She pursued him fiercely while they were young, and was crazy for his love.... more>>

Ruan Tian always knew that Shen Shu still had a white moonlight inside his heart, but she was still willing to be the disposable stand-in if it meant she could be by his side.

However, no matter how hard she tried, she was always just an unwanted and scheming white lotus girl in Shen Shu’s eyes.

She was a notorious actress who lingered down near the eighteenth tier of the entertainment industry.

Then, in their second year of marriage, Ruan Tian was hit on the head and was surprised to realize that her life was a novel, and she was only the girl the domineering CEO was using as a substitute.

She was just an insignificant stepping stone in the story for Shen Shu and his white moonlight. A tool that would be used up until there was nothing left but a miserable smear of blood.

Thoroughly sobered by this realization, Ruan Tian hurriedly filed for divorce and didn’t hesitate to kick Shen Shu to the curb. <<less

As the only girl born in the four generations of the Mo family – a prestigious and powerful family in Hua Xia – Mo Liu Gui has been adored since the day she was born. She is gorgeous, naive and intelligent. Behind her is the noble Mo family and by her side are countless excellent pursuers. Whether in career or relationships, she’s the heaven born life winner.... more>>

It’s a pity that Mo Di is not Mo Liu Gui but a tragic contrast of what one would call life winner.

He has been disliked by everyone in the Mo family since the day he was born. When he left the incubator, the whole family was competing for his sister but left him in the hospital corridor overnight. He never took a sip of his mother’s milk because it was just enough to feed one child. He has not been held by his father once because his father was extremely disgusted with the culprit who robbed his darling of nutrition in their mother’s womb.

His five brothers never looked him in the eye. When he was six years old, they even ganged up to beat him till he had a fractured right leg which almost left him permanently disabled, all because he scored first place in his grade while his sister scored third, making Mo Liu Gui sad to the point of crying.

Countless scolding, neglect, double standard treatment, and even abuse in the name of education have been habitually done to Mo Di. Finally one day, the Mo Di who has been soft and obedient for eighteen years turned black.

He was no longer a soft and sensible man but had become gloomy and aggressive. He ran away from home, started his own company and made new friends. Everything is booming but when his company was about to go public, he was found by the Mo family.

Afterwards, he was reborn. <<less

Fii was the first princess of the rural nation, Déman.... more>>

One day, she became engaged to King Roy; an icy king with both beauty and ability, whose management ability was perfect, and who would be perfect save for his coldness towards women.

The engagement was not really anything for her to celebrate though.

Why? Because her younger sister with both beauty and fame, whose personality was great, who held a mysterious power and who was a soothing miko had gotten into a marriage of love with said king. And Fii, her twin, had just come along with her as a set bonus.

She was treated as a stain on the fairy tale, but after a certain event, Fii decided she didn’t care any more.

She didn’t care about this lifestyle where she never saw her husband even once, where she would spend the rest of her days rotting away in a royal villa.

She was going to live her second life!

That was the decision she came to. <<less

I don't like the face of someone who looks just like the Duke of Delois, my enemy, but no matter how much I insulted her, her indifferent and aloof character stayed the same, which made me feel even more terrible.

I didn't care whether or not she disappears or dies. I was fine with anything as long as I didn't see her face.

The wish came true.

When he no longer wished for it to happen. <<less

When it came to their feelings, he was always the cruel one.... more>>

Ten years, that person stood in front of him and told him that he loved him. However, he would not spare him a glance.

He originally believed that there was enough time between them. They had already wasted ten years. If they continued to waste it, then it would be almost a whole lifetime.

He knew that the other’s obsession with him was too deep. It would have been simply ridiculous for him to let go.

When that person finally let go of him, he had obtained the freedom that he had long since yearned for. However, it was not as sweet as he had imagined.

It was already too late for regrets when he finally understood the implications of that person letting him go.

A light slash, and the once fervent warmth turned into coldness that couldn’t be touched.

He wanted to let out a soft apology, but that wasn’t possible anymore.

He did not know that everything could be so cruel before.

Once upon a time, the longest distance of this world was when I stood right in front of you, but did not realize that I loved you.

Right now, the longest distance in the world is life and death.

By the time I realized that I love you, the damage was already irreversible.

If I had the chance to hug you again, would I repeat the same mistake of the past?

Tell me, love, who do you belong to?

Jiang Yishan knew how tenderhearted Qin Shaosheng was towards him.

Even though back in the day, he only treated Qin Shaosheng as his sugar daddy, and had heartlessly dumped him for the sake of the path to stardom. What’s more, he even begged Qin Shaosheng to use his status as a young master to seek out the influential Qin Family, utterly trampling on Qin Shaosheng’s love for him!

Thus, after three years of separation and completely dried out of lowly tricks to play, his reputation thoroughly destroyed in showbiz, Jiang Yishan, who had nothing left to his name, came running back to Qin Shaosheng, begging to get back together, once more luring him using his body!

“I’m all hot inside…try it, won’t you?”

Jiang Yishan admitted that he was vile and selfish to the bone. As long as Qin Shaosheng showed an ounce of kindness to him, he would use it to his advantage to his death!

When faced with the current Jiang Yishan who had never yielded to him before, Qin Shaosheng was trying his best to remain cold and indifferent.

But even when he knew this was the usual scheming ploy where Jiang Yishan would feign weakness, Qin Shaosheng still got reeled in at the end.

He was well aware there was no way he could ever get rid of Jiang Yishan in this lifetime! Now that he could not refuse, he should—

—properly discipline him! He’d train Jiang Yishan’s entire body, starting from the inside, molding him into whatever he wanted! <<less
