The General's Daughter: The Mission

Her childhood was forged in shadows, and she was sharpened into a weapon, trained to be a ghost, a killer—an instrument of vengeance. The target: a decorated general who brought down her family. But fate doesn't follow orders. Just as Lara was about to execute her long-planned mission, everything spiraled out of control. A military convoy intercepted her escape route—escorting none other than the general himself. And then came the moment that changed everything. A blinding crash. Screeching tires. Her body was thrown like a ragdoll, then darkness. She had a fleeting recollection of another world, another lifetime where kings ruled the land with an iron fist. But she woke up, and twelve long months had passed.  She did not know where she was or who she was. She remembered nothing. They told her different names. A child with trembling hope whispered, “Mommy, your name is Moira Torres.” Her doctor insisted, “Your admission slip says Larissa Reyes.” A hardened general leaned close and commanded, “Remember who you are. Remember your mission.” Then another general—dangerously calm, incredibly familiar—looked at her as if she mattered and asked, “Can I call you Lara?” The name unlocked something buried deep in her soul. Lara Norse Kromwel. Daughter of General Odin Norse. Empress of the First Empire. But the man who watched her most closely dismissed it with cold certainty. “This is the 21st century,” he said. “What nonsense are you spouting? What Empress? You are my woman. You can only be mine!"

The Tycoon's Eternal Obsession: Reborn Jewellary Queen Seeks Vengeance

Seraphina Hale died at twenty-three. At the hands of the people she trusted most—her sister Evelyn, her mother Victoria, and her fiancé Derek. She had built Hale Lumina into a jewelry empire by twenty. She was brilliant, driven, unstoppable. She had everything—a thriving company, a man she loved, a future that sparkled like the diamonds she designed. Then Derek proposed. At an award ceremony dedicated to her. On one knee. To her sister. Using her ring design. The world watched. The hashtags exploded. She became the villain—the jealous sister who slapped him in front of everyone. Her company crashed. Her reputation shattered. Desperate and broken, she fell into their trap. They kidnapped her. Tortured her. Killed her. Staged it as suicide. Evelyn took her company. Her mother gave touching interviews.

Enter Alexander Langford—the brilliant scholarship kid from boarding school who became the most powerful CEO in Athena Country. Now he's offering salvation: three hundred million dollars, his name as her shield, and a marriage contract for two years. No love. Strictly business. Just one catch—Alexander controls her safety completely. But when Alexander cups her face and promises "I will protect you forever," she believes him. When his storm-blue eyes hold hers with devastating intensity, she feels safe for the first time. This marriage is supposed to be fake. So why does it feel so real?

Stealing the Love of the Yandere Boss In the Unlimited Flow World…

In a world where death is permanent and the only currency is power, Riri Lee—a webnovel editor reborn into a death game she's already read—runs on god-tier luck, four increasingly terrifying animal companions, and the quietly unhinged devotion of the most dangerous man on the planet. She's supposed to be the delicate one. Nobody warned the monsters. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When freelance webnovel editor Riri Lee wakes up on a dystopian planet called Blue Star, she realizes she's been transmigrated into the very story she was beta-reading—a brutal "Unlimited Flow" death game where survival means clearing deadly missions every month or facing instant termination. Bound to System #2, the second-most powerful System on the planet, Riri has god-tier luck and overpowered cheats that turn the apocalypse into her personal luxury vacation. But there's one problem: she knows the plot. She knows the weak NEET protagonist, Marty Miles, will build a harem and eventually lose to the real main character—Samael Santoro, holder of System #1, the apex predator who doesn't just survive missions, he dismantles them. What she doesn't expect is for Samael to notice her. One brutal dungeon encounter. One life-saving intervention. One possessive hand on the back of her neck—and suddenly, Riri is permanently bonded to the most dangerous man in the death game. Their Systems merge, their stats sync, and their fates intertwine in a soul-level connection that makes separation physically unbearable. Samael doesn't do partnerships. He doesn't share. And he certainly doesn't let anyone close. But Riri—fragile, porcelain-perfect, and impossibly powerful—has become his obsession. He'll burn down entire Mission Worlds to keep her safe. He'll eliminate anyone who looks at her too long. And he'll make sure she never forgets exactly who she belongs to. As the world crumbles and the death count rises, Riri must navigate deadly dungeons, ruthless Players, and a Yandere male lead whose idea of "protection" involves carrying her everywhere, feeding her by hand, and refusing to let her out of his sight. In a world where death is permanent and trust is a luxury, the most dangerous thing isn't the monsters—it's falling for the man who would raze cities just to see her smile.

Any resemblance to real names, places, or events is coincidental. This is an extremely fast-paced novel, and the protagonist becomes absurdly overpowered. He is not the usual “hero complex” type. The villain and antihero tags are not for show. If you are looking for a “goody-two-shoes” protagonist, this novel is not for you. Kailen is a morally grey character. He makes decisions that those interested in hero complex protagonists may not find pleasant. Note for Readers (Please do not skip): Early on, Kailen awakens with a shadow affinity. Yes—it may remind you of popular works you've read… but this is only the beginning. As the story progresses, he will unlock and master multiple affinities. The shadow affinity is a nod to some of my favorite novels, but the journey, characters, and world are entirely my own. Join the Community: Care to interact with me and other readers?
