"He offered her a ride into the underworld. She didn't know she'd fall in love with the devil himself." Y/N never planned to enter the underground illegal street-racing circuit-until she had no choice. The debts haunted her; adrenaline ran in her veins. Speed, danger, and a deal with the most feared racer in the circuit are her only means of escape. Jeon Jungkook. Fast. Ruthless. Untouchable. They call him The Devil of the Tracks; make one wrong move, and you'll either burn or beg. So, when she dared to challenge him, Y/N caught his attention and became his obsession. He offered to teach her the rules of his world-his way, at his speed, on his dime. But nothing comes for free in this world; freedom, especially, has a steep price. Engines roaring, sparks flying, Y/N is engulfed in his darkness, a ride on the razor's edge between love and destruction. Because once you go into the devil's passenger seat... There's no getting off alive. 🏆Awarded 2nd place for the Best First Chapter in The Velvet Ink Award by the wonderful @TrophyTales . 🏆Awarded 1st place for the Best Description in the ᴥ︎︎☘︎ 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑭𝒍𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓 𝑮𝒍𝒐𝒓𝒚 ☘︎ᴥ︎︎︎| ᵐⁱⁿⁱ ᵃʷᵃʳᵈ ˢʰᵒʷ by @NehPiee. 🏆Awarded 2nd place for the Best Blurb in The pINKspire Awards by @PinkW4ttysClub

[Unexpected series] 🇰🇷🇺🇸 Accolades 🏆×11 Jhope version Kang Ahri, a brilliant Korean-American psychologist and art enthusiast, takes a break from her well-structured life by spending a week at a conference in Paris. On her days off, she sneaks away to the Louvre museum to have conversations with the world's most famous portraits. She is eccentric, sharp-tongued, and hopelessly single, finding her escape in museums. Whether it is the famous Louvre or the Art Institute Chicago museum, she especially enjoys her ongoing verbal sparring with a particularly smug painting that she considers her nemesis. But one strange evening, after being denied access to her favorite gallery hall, a chance encounter turns her carefully ordered world upside down. She meets Jhope, a different type of masterpiece with a sun-kissed smile, and she's unaware of his stardom. What begins with a broken heel, a sore ankle, and a bruised ego quickly unravels into a surreal mix of fame, art, and an unexpected connection. When two different worlds collide-one painted in oils and another lit by spotlights-the result is anything but ordinary. 'Mona thinks I'm crazy' is a short rom-com story filled with heart, wit, and a touch of whimsical fantasy, where art, destiny, and a kind of love that even a 500-year-old painting can't ignore. 🎨cover and banner credits: @HJ_Fiction 📝Published officially : 5/5/25 © Strawberry1d Highest ranks #1 monalisa 27/7/25 #1 louvre 7/5/25 #1 soundcheck 9/5/25 #1 portraits 7/5/25 #2 monalisa 22/5/25 #22 USA out of 22.1k stories

Fennrin is a shadowforger, a type of az-ari who have mastery over shadows. But all it's ever brought him is misery. People are afraid of the power that he himself barely understands, seeing his shadows as omens of bad luck and death. Forced to barely scrape by since his parents disowned him, Fennrin's life takes a turn when he is approached by Ainreth, a lightweaver and famous general, asking him to come with him to the royal court to be trained and help him stave off an assassin who's made an attempt on Ain's life, somehow able to counteract his powers. Even though Fennrin is suspicious of Ainreth's flirting and his arrogant attitude, Fennrin decides to go with him because his life can't get much worse. Thrust into a world of politics and power, Fennrin quickly learns just why shadowforgers are so infamous and how strong he could become, while, much to his chagrin, starting to fall for Ainreth. However, unwelcome feelings are only the start of his problems as the neighboring, tyrannical monarchy is preparing for war. And if Fennrin wants to survive, he will have to fight it.

[Slow Brew Series 1 of 2] [Completed] Look, I didn't mean to embarrass myself the first time I walked into Brewing Grounds. Or the second. Or...every other time since. But something about the place-and the barista with the messy ponytail and the glasses that she pushes up her nose-makes me forget how to form actual sentences. Bea. Her name's Bea. She spelled mine wrong on my cup the first day (Ell-yot Hayul), and now I'm kind of obsessed. Not with her. With medium lattes. With her handwriting. With the little hearts she scribbles on my cups. Okay... maybe a little bit with her. The point is: I'm a walking disaster around her, and I'm pretty sure she knows it. And okay, maybe I started showing up every morning at exactly 7:30 just to see her. And maybe I've been reading up on how to flirt because I thought that might help (it hasn't). But honestly, what's the worst that could happen? I embarrass myself again? (Already done that.) Spill coffee on my tie? (Happened last week.) Accidentally fall in love with the barista who writes flirty notes on my coffee cups? Oh, wait...
