The Ice-cold CEO’s Doted Wife’s Revenge

Seven years ago, Ruby Emerald believed she had everything: love, stability, a future she could finally trust. On her wedding anniversary, she planned a surprise that would change their lives forever. Instead, her world shattered. She found her husband having sex with his ex, the words that followed cutting deeper than the betrayal itself. He said loving her made him feel small. Empty. The child she carried was her quiet miracle, who never got the chance to be born. Ruby lost her pregnancy on the very day meant to celebrate life, sealing her heartbreak in silence. When grief had barely settled, life demanded more. Her mother’s heart was failing. There was a need for surgery, which was devastatingly expensive. Her father’s debts threatened to swallow the family business whole. Ruby was drowning. Then came the knock on her hospital door. Her ex-husband’s stepfather, Max Byron, stepped inside, immaculate and unreadable, his presence commanding the room before he spoke a single word. A man of power, control, and secrets. “I can solve all your problems,” he said. Hope flared, dangerous and fragile until he finished: “My only condition… is that you marry me.” Trapped between survival and self-respect, Ruby is forced into a marriage built on necessity, not love. But beneath the cold arrangement and unspoken boundaries, something unsettling begins to grow, slow, restrained, impossible to ignore. Because the most dangerous thing about this marriage isn’t the bargain she made— It’s the feelings she never agreed to feel.

Rejected by My Crush, Now I'm Pampered by an Alien Boyfriend

Excerpt~ “I told you not to steal anything. It’s illegal!” I frowned at him. “I don’t get why Earthlings can’t just take whatever they want. It’s produced on your planet, right?” “Ugh, right—but we have a money system to follow. We don’t just take things without permission!” I said, snatching it back from his hand. “Hm? But… you stole my heart. Is that legal?” he said, leaning closer with a mischievous smirk. I pushed him back, my cheeks flushing bright red. “Idiot! Where did you even learn that from?!” “Oh… it was on that thing—TV. The girl in it didn’t seem to mind when the guy said it. Why are you mad?” *** All Ling Yunhua ever wanted… was him—her childhood friend, her first love. After years of silently carrying her feelings for Tang Shixiu, Yunhua finally finds the courage to confess. But after all the mixed signals and lingering hope, he rejects her—coldly, without hesitation—shattering the only dream she ever held close. Devastated and on the edge of giving up on everything… that’s when he appears—like an angel fallen from the stars. A man from beyond the galaxy crosses paths with Yunhua at her lowest point. From a race that erased emotions long ago, he begins to feel something foreign… something human. Something like love. But danger closes in fast. The research organization Yunhua works for—and the government—are secretly hunting him down after discovering that his alien DNA holds the power to cure any disease. Determined to protect him, Yunhua makes a dangerous choice: she hides him under the lie of being her boyfriend. Now they live together. A clueless, awkward alien learning to feel… and a girl torn between duty and the growing storm in her heart. How long can she keep him hidden in a world desperate to dissect him? And when the time comes for him to return to the stars… will she be able to let him go?

Interstellar Beast World: Winning the Villain’s Heart with Cubs

Yue Yue was once the precious White Jade Snake female of her primitive beast world. She was pampered, adored female and practically treated like a rare treasure. But the moment she opens her eyes… BAM! Her home was gone, the forest was gone, and there were no familiar beastmen running around half-naked. Instead... People are flying in the sky without wings. People are talking to glowing bracelets. People are living in giant metal buildings that look like angry mountains. Yue Yue wants to go home immediately. Unfortunately, fate laughs in her face. She finds out she has actually transmigrated… and not as some powerful heroine, but as an F-level female who is infertile and has F-level spiritual healing, basically treated like a useless accessory that can be thrown away anytime. From “Most Cherished Treasure of the City”...to “Garbage Female.” What kind of karmic debt is this!? Just when she’s ready to sit down and cry, a cold mechanical ding! rings in her head. A system? Yes, she got a system...but not the good kind. This system wants her to save villainous beastmen, the ones who are on the path to becoming degenerated, uncontrollable monsters. They are cruel, bloodthirsty, evil, and absolutely the last people she wants to babysit. Even worse, she only survives by completing the system’s ridiculous tasks. Yue Yue’s reaction: “I’m a snake, I only know how to slither! Why me?!” Now she must fight for survival, cure villains, avoid getting eaten by polluted beasts, and somehow prevent the interstellar world from collapsing...all while trying to figure out how this bizarre place works. A useless female? A forgotten character? Ha! Watch Yue Yue shake the entire galaxy. ~ Excerpt: Yue Yue didn’t know what was happening. One moment she was quietly trying to escape from this strange place, but suddenly a huge shadow appeared in front of her. A very big, very long, very black shadow. She slowly looked up...and her soul almost flew out of her body. A giant winged serpent hovered above her; its scales were darker than night, and its violet-black eyes swirled as if they could swallow the world. Its wings beat once, sending a blast of wind that nearly threw her off her feet. Before she could slither away, The snake hissed at her. His stare was so intense she felt like her tiny snake heart stopped beating. Her voice came out shaking, trembling and almost squeaking, “B-Brother… we’re the same species, okay? C-Cannibalism is… very bad. Very, VERY bad!” The serpent blinked. Then, right in front of her eyes, his massive body shrank, twisted, and transformed into a dangerously handsome beastman. A very tall, black-haired, violet-eyed, and exuding the full aura of “I can kill you with a glance.” Yue Yue gulped. He looked down at her and picked her up. It is as if she were a fruit he found on sale. “What are you doing?! Put me down! I’m not edible!” He didn’t even respond. He simply opened the pocket on his strange suit...and dropped her in. Yue Yue flailed inside like a trapped dumpling. “W-Wait! Wait, wait, wait! Am I being kidnapped!?” Her life was over. She had officially been abducted by a psychopath serpent in human clothing.
