Her sudden transformation sends shockwaves through the palace… and catches the attention of the most dangerous man… What begins as a desperate attempt to survive court politics becomes a tangled web of affection, rivalry, and desire. She only wants her freedom—but the men around her seem determined to win her heart, her mind, or her power. And in a world where a single misstep can topple empires, Tang Ke Xin must decide whether to rewrite her fate… or let these royal wolves fight for a place at her side. A story of rebirth, intrigue, and unexpected romance, where a once‑simple girl becomes the most captivating woman in the empire—and every royal gentleman wants to claim her.

Evie, a human resources professional who loves gossip, dies while trying to resolve a club fight and is transported to the body of a palace maid. However, the body is of a woman with a secret identity, trying to protect the ones she loves at all costs, even if that means that she has to get too close to the sun.

I was the Goldbane heiress. Gideon Vexwood was the lowborn wolf I married for love. I thought we were building a kingdom; I didn’t realize he was building my coffin. In one night, my world shattered. A tragic accident claimed my father’s life and stole my unborn child, leaving my body permanently broken. With the Pack Council threatening to strip my title unless I produce an heir, I was forced into a desperate gamble. I trusted my husband. I trusted my loyal maid. Together, we struck a secret surrogate deal to save the Goldbane’s right to the Alpha seat. I thought it was our salvation. I didn't know it was a trap. While I drowned in grief, Gideon and his mistress were celebrating my downfall, manipulating the very contracts meant to save me to turn me into a servant in my own home. They called it strategy. I called it war. For seven years, I played the victim. I endured their cruelty, letting them think they’d won while I forged a secret alliance with the only man they truly fear: Jarek Ashthorne. The infamous Rogue King. A man who rules the underworld with an iron fist and holds a debt to my father that he has never forgotten. He was supposed to be my weapon of revenge. I didn't expect him to be my salvation. Now, as the secrets of that fatal night emerge, the long game is finally over. They took my child. They stole my life. Now, I’m coming for their crowns. ____ Jarek hauled me forward until my chest collided with the rigid planes of his torso. “You have no idea, Elowen. Everything about you... every tear you shed for a man who doesn't deserve you… It’s all my business.” I shivered, but I clamped down on the sensation instantly. “Get your hands off me! I know what you’re doing. I’ve heard the stories, Jarek. Stay away from my marriage, stay away from my pack. And you better stay away from my life!” Yet, he pressed his face into the crook of my neck, inhaling deeply. “Is that what you call it, Elowen? I call it a wake-up call. But if you’d rather go back to your ‘Alpha’ and pretend that the walls aren’t closing in, be my guest.”

"The hardest thing about being a saint in a corrupt world… is knowing you must become a heretic to save it." Raziel’s faith wasn’t a weapon. It was a shield. As a devout priest, his power was in guiding lost souls, healing the broken, and serving as a beacon for the Church since he was the Goddess's most loyal servant. Because of that, he was the first to fall when the "Player" arrived and for years he fought her game with prayers, a battle of faith against rules he couldn't understand. He fell alone just as his world burned around him, but death was not the end. His final breath sent him back in time. Now fifteen again, he has years to prepare before "Game Over" begins anew. He must find allies, unmask traitors, and forge a power the Church deems blasphemy. Because this time, he no longer bears the curse that bound him in his previous life: his blind faith.

“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).
