Founding a story with You

She faked her death to escape her past. He never expected to fall for a kindergarten teacher. But some stories write themselves. Claire Anna Frank is a sweet, dedicated kindergarten teacher living a quiet life—until Kennedy Scott Walker walks through her classroom door. Kennedy is a 26-year-old CEO, impossibly handsome, and way out of her league. He's also the uncle of her students, the twin girls Diana and Jenny. Their first meeting is ordinary. Their second? Not so much. After a night out with friends, a tipsy Claire pokes his nose, calls him "such a cutie," and changes everything. What follows is a slow burn neither of them saw coming: coffee spills, stolen glances, late-night texts, and quiet moments that feel like something more. Kennedy starts showing up—at her apartment, at lunch, in her thoughts when she's supposed to be grading artwork. And Claire? She's falling. Hard. But Claire is hiding something. Her real name is Claire Franklin Hemelia—daughter of two legendary superstars, heiress to a family of Hollywood royalty. Two years ago, she was falsely accused of scandalous affairs with powerful men in the industry. Betrayed by her own parents and destroyed by the media, Claire did the unthinkable: she faked her death and disappeared, leaving behind everything to become someone new. Now, as Kennedy gets closer, the walls Claire built to protect herself begin to crack. Every smile, every touch, every "I came here because you were here" pulls her deeper into something she swore she'd never risk again—being seen. But secrets don't stay buried forever. And when the truth starts to surface, Claire will have to choose: keep running, or trust that Kennedy might just love her for who she really is. A heartwarming, emotional romance about second chances, hidden identities, and finding love when you least expect it.

Reborn as the Fat Ugly Duckling, Yet I Mated the Four Beast Deities

Wish thought that if she ever got a second chance at life, she would at least wake up in a better story. A spoiled princess. A doomed villainess on the path to redemption. A heroine adored by powerful husbands. Anything would have been fine. That's how stories were supposed to work. Instead, fate—and whatever twisted cosmic editor writes destinies—casts her in the one role she should never have been reborn into: the fat, ugly, unwanted maiden chosen for sacrifice. She awakens in a body mocked by her tribe, pitied by her parents, and avoided by every man. In a world where beast forms define worth, hers is a joke—a puff-fluff fox, a useless cotton cloud that couldn't frighten a butterfly. Worse still, she is the doomed extra whose sole purpose was to die during the Mating Moon Ritual—her death the trigger that allowed the real female lead, a beautiful, weak princess, to earn the devotion of the four almighty beast deities. The Wind Deity—hot-headed, wild, and dangerously unpredictable. The Solar Deity—arrogant, playful, and impossibly radiant. The Sky Deity—silent, calm, and shrouded in mystery. The Night Deity—cold, calculating, and merciless. Except Wish doesn't die. And her survival breaks everything. The plot stutters. Events twist. Characters act wrong. The world itself seems to notice her refusal to disappear—and begins trying to correct the mistake. Now hunted by fate and trapped in a society where beauty is worshipped, mating marks define destiny, and the weak are meant to be sacrificed, Wish is given one impossible condition for survival: She must derail the story completely. The only way to do that is to draw the attention of the four beings the world revolves around—creatures meant to be untouchable, distant, and divine. One is bound to her by a ritual that should have killed her. One meets her with hostility instead of fate. One sees her existence as a threat that must be erased. One should be incapable of feeling anything at all. They were never meant to notice her. The story was never meant to let her live. So how is she supposed to survive a world that measures worth by beauty and power, when she is fat, unwanted, powerless—and armed with nothing but a useless fluffy fox? Can she break the story that wants her dead? Or will she die exactly as the plot demands?

After Rebirth, I Accept The Arranged Marriage

In her past life, Jessie Sterling moved abroad for Julian Grant, only to have him break his promise and stand her up late at night for another woman on her birthday. Reborn into this life, Jessie Sterling personally severed her past adoration and affection, and instead entered a marriage of convenience with Victor Morgan, the heir to a century-old prestigious family in Aethelburg, a match approved by her family. She had originally thought it would just be a marriage for mutual benefit, and that they would treat each other with polite respect after the wedding. People in their social circle were not very optimistic about this newlywed couple with vastly different personalities. Until one day, some friends paid a late-night visit. By the huge floor-to-ceiling windows of the Four Joys Courtyard, a group of people saw the man who dominated the business world by day having his knee stepped on. He held a bottle of cat-eye nail polish and was currently bowing his head, diligently painting the toenails of the foot resting on his knee. "Is this okay?" With a coquettish air, Jessie Sterling glanced down, her chin slightly raised like a spirited little peacock, "Well, it's passable, I suppose. But I think it could use another coat?" Victor Morgan was almost driven to laugh in exasperation by her words. After setting down Jessie Sterling's leg, he moved forward, planting his hands on either side of her, his eyes deep and dark as he said in a low voice, "Mrs. Morgan, that's enough!" Before Jessie Sterling could react, in the next moment, the man had already leaned in and captured the red lips before him that had been tempting him for so long. "Mrs. Morgan, don't you think this... is what really needs another coat of color?" The group of people who had just walked through the courtyard entrance froze on the spot. How the hell could this be called... treating each other with polite respect?
