Imagine waking up and seeing yourself in a novel you were reading? That's kinda my situation right now. Was it because i complained how the villain was just not making sense and she keeps letting her good heart being used? maybe. But i want my boring old life back. I have to find a way to go back. But the only way I can do that is to change the outcome of my new life. That is, to not die. My only goals? Dump the scum-fiancé that has a high sex libido and get revenge on the backstabbing friends who framed me for murder. My new plan is foolproof... But fate has a cruel sense of irony. The one wild card I never saw coming was my gold digging mother's new marriage, which lands me directly in the path of the Henderson twins. They are the original sin of this story, as devastatingly handsome as they are destructive. Now I'm living under the same roof as the very men I have to avoid if i want to stay alive. They look at me with contempt, but my heart races with a dangerous desire. To survive, I must avoid them. But how do you run from a temptation that now sleeps in the room next door? I came here to change the story, but the plot just thickened.

From overworked corporate slave to… the fat niece of a future villain? At twenty-three, my life ended in the most ironic way possible, drowning in a lake while reading an online romance novel. When I woke up, I wasn’t just alive, I was inside that very novel. And worse, not as the princess or the healer or even the tragic maid. No. I woke up as Seraphine Agro, the silver-haired, chubby niece of the story’s main villain, Duke Tayler Agro, the man who would one day summon a famine, experiment on peasants, and get publicly executed. Awesome. Now I’m stuck in a half-collapsed mansion with stale soup, a broken “Duke” father who’s too kind for his own good, and an entire kingdom collapsing into plague and hunger. And to make things worse, the hero of the story—the dangerously handsome knight Sir Alex Canva, is on his way to inspect our lands. I know the plot. I know who dies. And I’m not planning to go quietly. Armed with sarcasm, stubbornness, and a questionable diet, I’m rewriting destiny, one disastrous choice at a time.

Twenty-four campers gather together at a campsite and participate in challenges to win $1,000,000 on international TV. The winning team of each challenge gets to spend the night in the luxury cabin; second place receives a smaller prize and no elimination, but they have to sleep in an old, rundown house; and the losing team sends a player home and sleeps in a treehouse. Once the groups merge, it's every camper for themselves, and the players battle it out, hoping to either win invisibility and a spot in the luxury cabin or find the hidden invisibility idol that will prevent them from getting voted off. The last player standing wins the million.

On her half-sister's wedding day, Fia's world shatters. Hazel, the bride, has allegedly eloped with Fia's fated mate, and over the phone he rejects her without mercy. With the Alpha groom ready to unleash war on her pack, and spurred on by her stepmother's pleas, Fia makes a desperate choice; she takes Hazel's place at the altar. But the marriage is nothing more than a cruel setup. Betrayed by her family and accused of stealing her sister's happiness, Fia becomes the perfect target for Alpha Cian's wrath. Humiliated and furious, he vows to keep her as his mate not out of love, but revenge. He swears he will break her, torment her, and make her pay until the end of time. What neither of them expects is that hate can twist, burn, and evolve into something far more dangerous. Between lies, betrayal, and a growing bond neither wants to acknowledge, Fia and Cian are bound to discover that the thin line between hate and love is meant to be crossed.

The universe hated me so much, it tossed me around, then dumped me straight into the arms of my father’s killer. — I thought I understood monsters. I grew up with them. I survived them. I swore I would kill the one who murdered my father and brothers. But when I finally found him, I failed. Dante Corsetti. Alpha. Mafia boss. The man who destroyed my family and dragged me into his house like a living trophy. He broke me apart until I didn’t know where my rage ended and his cruelty began. He said I was nothing. A prisoner. A reminder of everything he’d lost. A punishment for sins I never committed. Yet the longer I stayed, the more the world I thought I knew cracked open. The secrets about my bloodline, lies my father died with and a supernatural truth I should never have discovered. And in the middle of it all, a mate bond tied me to the monster I hated most. The goddess must be laughing because Dante is not the only one drawn to me. There were two others. Knox, who looked at me like I was the first good thing the goddess ever gave him. Reed, who claimed I was destined for him no matter who he had to fight. Three alphas. One impossible bond. And me, trapped between revenge, desire, and a fate dark enough to break every one of us. WARNING: 18+ Contains dark, and triggering themes some readers might find disturbing.

At thirty-six, Elena Vance was the perfect partner. She spent ten years and $300,000 funding her boyfriend's tech startup, only to find out through a viral Instagram post that he had secretly married an heiress in London. To the world, Elena was a "depreciating asset"—an HR manager fired for being "too old" and drowning in debt. But they forgot one thing: Elena doesn't just read resumes; she reads souls. Armed with a proprietary AI algorithm that treats human behavior like stock market data, Elena returns to the corporate battlefield. The "Mean Girl" Director trying to sabotage her? Exposed for embezzlement in 24 hours. The Ivy League Ex crawling back for help? Short-sold into bankruptcy. The cold-blooded Tycoon, Julian Blackwood, who thinks he owns the city? Elena looks at Julian’s collapsing empire and smiles. "Mr. Blackwood, I don't want your heart. I want the controlling stake in your family trust." From a discarded lover to the Queen of Liquidation—Elena proves that in the game of love and capital, she is the only constant.

I was thrown into the Death Jungle to be erased. No trial. No mercy. No chance to return. Death Jungle. It's not meant for human beings. It gives life to execution ground filled with accursed beasts, black traps of magic, ancient trials, and punishments of invisible laws that strike qualified weakness. Just the first step inside should drain practically anyone mad. The second step kills. Within just a few minutes, I should be dead. Instead, something awakened. Every time the jungle broke me, my will hardened. Every wound carved power into my bones. Every instance of nearly dying unlocked some new, deep-hidden stage inside my body. The jungle, after all, feeds on fear-but those who refuse to kneel are rewarded. No system window. No soft guidance. Only pain, instinct, and evolution in the cruelest sense. Black magic hunts me. Ancient beasts test my mettle. Forces hiding in the shadows watch me with interest-and fear. The jungle has levels, and each would be worse than death. Fail, and you are assimilated into the soil. Live, and your will power will be transformed, morphed into something inhuman. I stop. I stop running away, hiding. I start hunting. With power comes knowledge: the Death Jungle was never meant to be cleared. It exists to create monsters-or bury them forever. And I am changing at a rate no one anticipated. From the shadows, enemies start to squeeze into the light. Greed stretches out between humans into the jungle. Secrets about why I was sent here begin surfacing. Every step forward into fate is more and more filled with blood and curses. I entered into the Death Jungle as prey. I will emerge from it as something far worse. The jungle awakened me. Now it will have to endure me.

"It would be better to die than live such a fucked up life." Xie Fang thought death would finally end the torture he had suffered for years. Instead, he woke up in the same rotten room—facing a cold system that called itself the Protector of the Universe. This time, he was given a choice. The "things" that tortured him were intruders—beings from other worlds that should not exist. They broke the rules of reality and fed on people like him. To erase them, the Protector offered Xie Fang a contract: travel through different worlds, take on new bodies, and hunt down the intruders hiding among humans. In return, he would get his revenge. Xie Fang agreed without hesitation. World after world, he completed his missions with a calm mind and sharp intelligence. He learned how to play his roles perfectly, how to deceive others, and how to kill without being seen. What Xie Fang didn’t know was that someone had been watching him from the very beginning. "I'll find you," a voice whispered. "No matter the world. No matter the life." Across every world, the same presence appeared—dangerous, possessive, and terrifyingly familiar. It helped him when it pleased. It cornered him when it wanted. No matter how far Xie Fang ran, it was always there, as if he had never been allowed to leave. The darkness following him does not want to destroy him. It wants to claim him. As Xie Fang uncovers the truth behind the intruders, the system, and his own past, he realizes his revenge is only the beginning. In a game of lies and survival, he must decide how far he is willing to go. _ _ _ _ P.S. I do not own the cover Image.

Life. People say it has meaning. Purpose. Some grand reason you’re supposed to figure out before it’s over. Honestly? I think that’s bullshit. Some people are born strong. Some are born lucky. And some of us are born just… there. Not special enough to matter. Not useless enough to disappear. I tried. I really did. School. Family. Dreams. Didn’t work out. So I ran. From expectations. From people. From myself. And somehow, I ended up here. Inside a game I used to play. The Hero Chronicles. Famous for being unfair. Famous for being impossible. And now I’m part of it. Not as the chosen hero. Not as someone important. Just Leo von Celestial. The human empire’s failure. And the worst part? I’ve got two months until the Path Awakening. The same trial that killed the original Leo in the game. Now it’s my turn.

I’m your average girl—well, *was*—who spends most of her days buried in CEO romance novels. Yeah, I know, *so cliche*, right? But hey, we all have our guilty pleasures. So, what about work, you ask? Well, my job made it easy to read the day away as long as I got my tasks done by the end of the day. Sounds perfect, right? Simple, right? Well, that's because I was a librarian. *Past tense.* Why? Because some arrogant, narcissistic jerk gets me fired. Why? Apparently, I didn’t notice him walking up to the counter because I was too busy getting lost in my latest book. Now, you’d think any *normal* person would just tap me on the shoulder and say, “Excuse me.” But no, this guy *decides* to get me fired. Rude? Oh, you bet. But that’s not even the worst part. Oh, no. The real problem started when I decided to get my revenge. That’s when I got tangled up with him… in more ways than one. Now, not only am I working for this narcissistic jerk, but I’m doing it undercover. Why? Because apparently, he has an issue with women working for him... especially when things get *too close* in the sheets. (Yeah, you *get* where this is going.) So, I’m pretending to be a man. Why? Because I need the job. It’s high-paying, and it’s my ticket out of my miserable, *pathetic* life. I mean, revenge is great and all, but I’ve got bills to pay. Money’s my new love, and there’s no way I’m letting some petty rivalry get in the way of it. The tricky part? Balancing my need for cash with the fear of being exposed. I’ve got two huge secrets: one, I’m the woman who shared the sheets with him. And two? I’m a woman, disguised as a man, and praying every day that my cover doesn’t blow. One wrong move, and my entire life—my job, my reputation, my *revenge*—could come crashing down. So, yeah, no pressure. But hey, what’s life without a little drama, right? Right."

She was the girl nobody wanted, easy to overlook, easy to blame, and impossible to love. Growing up in her pack taught her early that she would always be the outsider. So she made herself a promise: keep her head down, survive the years, and walk away the moment she turned eighteen. But fate never plays fair. On the night she finally becomes an adult, her wolf awakens at last… and along with it, a mate bond she never asked for. And the mate fate chooses for her? The future Alpha. Her sister’s devoted fiancé. The boy who spent her entire childhood making sure she knew she didn’t belong. She hates him. Despises him. Wants absolutely nothing to do with him. But the bond has other plans. Suddenly, the Alpha-to-be, arrogant, sharp-tongued, and stubborn to the point of madness, can’t breathe without her. He’s furious that fate tied him to the girl he once broke… and even more furious that he can’t stay away from her now. She wants nothing but freedom. He wants her within reach. She keeps pushing him off. He keeps coming back. Because the one girl he never wanted has become the one his wolf refuses to live without. And as long-buried secrets surface, loyalties splinter, and unwanted feelings start to burn between them, one question lingers… Can something broken truly be rebuilt, or have they already crossed the point of no return?

College. Degree. Job. Family. Timi Andre lived by society's script, never daring to stand out or take risks. Then a car accident ended it all and in his final moments, dying alone on a random street, he realized he had nothing. No special memories. No legacy. Just regrets. In desperation, he wished for a second chance. And a goddess granted one. Reborn in Sarvevs, a world of magic and Awakeners. Timi vows to live without regrets. No more hiding. No more following the rules. But in a world that worships combat mages and beast slayers, Timi awakens as a SSS-Rank Gardener. Everyone mocked him. The rarest rank wasted on the weakest class. What they don't know: his ability lets him evolve plants infinitely. A seed today could become a world-ending threat tomorrow. They'll learn soon enough. This is the rise of the world's greatest Awakener not through destiny, but through dirt, determination, and defiance.

Once an immortal condemned to eternal punishment, Celeste, aka Celia, awakens inside the body of a disgraced apprentice, sharing the same name as Celia at Ravencrest Academy, where power is law and reputation decides survival. Weak, mocked, and surrounded by predators, she realizes she has been given a second life… but not her former strength. Yet her hands remain dangerous. With knowledge from her past life, she begins rebuilding her cultivation through a forbidden art of healing, using touch to correct meridian damage, cleanse poison, and stabilize broken cores. What begins as secret treatments for desperate students soon turns into whispers, scandals, and obsession. The academy’s strongest elites, nobles, knights, mages, and even professors begin lining up for her “Divine Touch,” each leaving changed in body and shaken in spirit. But her gift is also her curse. Her methods blur the line between medicine and temptation, drawing both male and female admirers into her orbit. As attraction turns into loyalty, and loyalty turns into possessiveness, she gains power not through brute force… but through influence. Behind her rise, darker forces stir. The academy’s leaders notice. The empire watches. And somewhere beyond the walls, the heavens remember her name. This time, she won’t be punished quietly.

"Forgive me, my soul," he said, knowing it was probably the last time he would see the love of his life. *** Simply put, King Agust was the devil in plain clothes. A raging lycan with an unwavering desire to wipe out werewolves, he was the ultimate danger to a race whose only mistake, was bearing the same blood as that of his father. Broken and damaged by his father, a werewolf alpha, Agust hated wolves with all he had and didn't have. To him, they were pathetic beings that needed to be snuffed out, and like a mad king, he made their lives so difficult the only option the wolves had left, was to hide. So when he met Park, one of the strongest werewolf alphas, who didn't take shit from no one, hated him, and who was determined to protect the werewolf race, Agust knew he found his match. What he didn't expect, was for the alpha who hated him so much, to be his mate, and reject him on the same day they met. As if that wasn't bad enough, when his lycans attacked Park's pack, Agust sentenced them to mass murder, an action that triggered a revolution. But strangely, the only thing Agust cared for, was the one man who made him weak in the knees. Alpha Park. Would Agust win both wars?

Xiao Qingya was reincarnated as a pitiful cannon fodder in an ancient drama novel. Well, again.  In her grandfather’s generation, her maternal family was exiled. Now they worked in the countryside as farmers. But… this family wasn't ordinary farmers! The family was full of main characters, but also cannon fodder. The author wrote a lot of stories featuring the same universe. Her mother, father, brothers, and sisters were the future major characters. The mother was a female protagonist who went through so much abuse just to be reunited with her husband and awaken her memories in the previous life as a modern woman! The twin elder sisters’ lives were full of misunderstandings, the kind that would make them fight to the death until only one of them remained alive. The second brother lost his life just to protect the female lead, but unfortunately, the male lead in his story wasn’t him. And the eldest brother…  He was a prodigy in both martial arts and medicine. However, after he failed to save the sickly Xiao Qingya, he fell into depression. He was caught up in his younger twin sisters’ feud and eventually lost his life, too. *** The System fell silent after it read yet another pitiful cannon fodder script. Why did it even get bound to such a small baby who had no power to do anything yet? Its host was truly pitiful. This time around, she would also die young, just like the other books she had been reincarnated into. Feeling useless, it could only tell its host the truth.  Xiao Qingya didn't mind at all. Bored, she spent her time gossiping with ghosts. Yes, she could also see ghosts! However, just as she waited for her time to log off from the book… Eh, why did her parents reunite early? Her sisters lived peacefully with each other, and even her brothers thrived more than ever. Farming peacefully, they were saving themselves from famine and plague by hoarding! The family replied in their hearts: It’s because we heard your inner thoughts. You changed the family’s fate!

He was the King of Kings—until the Author rewrote him. Noah ruled worlds, shaped laws, and commanded reality itself… until a penstroke stripped him of everything. Banished to the Abyss—a realm where authority is borrowed and divinity is mocked—he’s forced to start again from zero. But Noah doesn’t kneel. He hunts. With a chaos-born princess at his side and rebellion in his blood, he’ll tear through puppet monarchs, unravel the threads of fate, and claw his way back to the top. The narrative may bind others— But he remembers being the one who wrote it. This time, the story obeys him. And when the final page turns, even the Author will bleed.

“Ethan, I challenge you!” “Are you sure?” Ethan asked calmly. “My father is the Gym Leader of Starlight City, my brother is the Gym Leader of Emberfall City. I started training Pokémon at the age of three, mastered the Art of Pokémon Warfare by five, defeated all rivals my age by seven, and retired from the battle scene at eleven. Are you certain you want to fight me? If you insist, then put up all your pocket money as the wager!” “W-wow… I won’t challenge you anymore.” Ding! “Congratulations, Host, for completing the novice mission ‘Winning Without Fighting.’” Winning Without Fighting: A powerful trainer can defeat opponents purely with presence. Achieve 10 victories without using Pokémon. Progress: 10/10. Mission complete. Congratulations, Host, you have received the Novice Gift Pack.” Hearing the system’s prompt, Ethan burst into tears. He had finally completed his beginner mission. --------------------------------------------------------- This novel is a Real World Pokémon Novel but I edited it very thoroughly that you can just think of it as just set on a fanmade region (a massive one).

Everly, a connoisseur of orphan-to-riches tropes, always assumed her origin story began with a dramatic abandonment at the orphanage gates. Turns out, her life was even more cliché than her favorite novels! She wasn't merely dumped; she was swapped—a long-lost heiress to a vast fortune. Just when she thought her life couldn't get any more tropey, a mysterious System materialized, offering her a chance at a "good ending." The catch? Its "abilities" ranged from the utterly bizarre to the downright mortifying, making Everly question if a happy ending was truly worth the existential cringe. *** System 006: [Host, please choose 1 of these 3 system abilities!] Everly: "They're all weird! Let me just pick random!" System 006: [Hehe... host, I forgot to say that each system will have consequences, so something will happen to you when you use it...] Everly: "!!!" Days later, having been reunited with her biological family and experimenting with the System's... unique function, the consequence were already glaringly apparent. Her beloved brother: "My little sister is precious, but I need therapy to keep up with her alien-like thinking." Handsome man 1: "She's a pervert! I'm scared she'll take my innocence..." Handsome man 2: "Every time she talks, I feel like killing her. Is that normal?" NOTE: Please disconnect all logical circuits before proceeding with this novel, as it's an absolute chaotic comedy where the MC, Everly, has several screws loose in her brain. Don't expect much normalcy here—sanity checked out long ago and never came back.

Please note: The synopsis is inadequate, so please read the main text! Jiang Luoxue, a special agent from the 23rd century, was stunningly beautiful with impeccable marksmanship and outstanding medical and poison skills. While returning from a mission, she encountered a plane crash and transmigrated into the neglected legitimate daughter of a Minister's household in the Yunqi Dynasty. Upon arrival, she was drugged with a potent aphrodisiac and pursued by bandits. After a desperate fight to eliminate them, she fell off a cliff, believing she was going to die. Fortunately, she had a fortuitous encounter at the bottom of the cliff. Heh! Since she didn't die, it was time for others to face misfortune. She cursed her heartless father, beat her hypocritically kind and venomous stepmother, spanked the stepsister who stole her fiancé, emptied the family’s storerooms, and then ruined their reputations, ensuring they got a lifetime tour of prison. Ye Xuanchen, the Great General of the Yunqi Dynasty, was exceedingly handsome and skilled in martial arts. While fighting the enemy, he was ambushed and poisoned with the Fiery Charm Toxin. Every mid-month, his meridians would become turbulent, causing him intense pain. As someone who avoided women, he had to soak in the Ice Pool to alleviate his suffering. On this day, at the height of his internal struggle, facing a woman who fell from the sky, he mistook her for a spy sent by the enemy nation. The moment Jiang Luoxue saw the naked man in the water:
