Excerpt of the story: "My uncle used to say Hades left the Underworld for Persephone, and I thought how stupid was that, like why would he leave for a girl? And I think I finally got why he did it." His eyebrows furrow, making him appear deep in his thoughts. "Why?" He turns to me, saying his next words seriously, "He needed someone to see the good in him. To fall in love with him."

Evanya Neil was killed. By whom? She doesn't know. Death should have been the end, yet when she opened her eyes, she found herself in the body of Evanya Roselle-a noble lady destined to become nothing more than a stepping stone in a romance novel. Or so she thought. A mysterious letter soon arrived, revealing a shocking truth. This wasn't Evanya Roselle's body. It wasn't anyone's body. The body had been created specifically for her soul. The letter urged her to forget the past and enjoy her new life. At first, Evanya believed she had transmigrated into the novel she once read. The problem? Nothing matches the story. The kingdom is different. The people are different. The architecture is different. Even the fate of the supposed side villainess has already changed. As Evanya searches for answers, strange pieces begin falling into place-a mysterious old man who claims she owes him her life, a letter that seems to know everything about her, unexplained deaths that mirror the way her own parents died, and secrets buried deep within the world. One says she owes him. The other tells her to live freely. Both seem connected to her existence. And somewhere among all those secrets lies the truth behind her death, her new life, and the reason she was brought into this world. Now Evanya has only one question: Did she really transmigrate into a novel... or into something far more dangerous?

Julia Hart was the definition of success. A brilliant, workaholic businesswoman, she built a corporate empire through sheer determination, ruthless negotiations, and sleepless nights. Romance had never been a priority. To Julia, love was unpredictable, but money and power were investments that always paid off. Then she died from overwork. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself reincarnated as Bella Renshaw, the breathtaking daughter of Duke Thinas Renshaw-the wealthiest noble in the kingdom-and the infamous villainess from the romance novel He Is Not Into Her. Bella's fate was already written. Obsessed with Crown Prince Henry, she relentlessly pursued him, grew jealous of the story's heroine, and eventually attempted murder. Her reward? A sword through the heart at the hands of the man she loved. Julia has no intention of following that script. Forget the prince. Forget romance. Forget becoming the villainess. Armed with memories of her previous life and modern business knowledge, Bella decides to rewrite her destiny by building the greatest commercial empire the continent has ever seen. From luxury goods and banking to trade routes and industry, every successful venture brings her one step closer to freedom-and further away from the death flags of the original story. But fate has a twisted sense of humor. The more Bella ignores the handsome crown prince, the more his attention turns toward her. As nobles, merchants, and royalty become entangled in her growing empire, Bella must navigate political schemes, jealous rivals, and an increasingly persistent male lead who refuses to accept being treated like an afterthought. Can a villainess escape the ending written for her?

In her past life, Sheng Xiaoyang was the discarded biological daughter of the wealthy Sheng family. Eager to please her cold parents and three cruel brothers, she endured their neglect while they showered the sweet, manipulative adopted sister, Gu Ruoruo, with love. Xiaoyang's desperation for affection eventually led to her tragic, lonely death. Now, she is back. Reborn into her eighteen-year-old self on the very day she was brought back to the Sheng mansion, Xiaoyang is no longer looking for love. She is completely numb. While her family ignores her and her brothers plot petty pranks, Xiaoyang quietly opens her laptop at night. Armed with five years of future knowledge, she begins building a shadow empire that will eventually control the city's economy. They thought she was a penniless, useless country girl. They told her she would beg on her knees if they kicked her out. But when the Sheng family faces total bankruptcy, they go to beg the city's mysterious, untouchable billionaire mogul for a lifeline-only to find Xiaoyang sitting in the CEO's chair. "You want a bailout? Security, throw these strangers out."

"You believe silence keeps you safe, Princess. That if you stay quiet enough, the monsters will pass you by. They will not. Because the worst monster in this city has already chosen you. Tell me who hurt you, and I will make them beg for a death I will not give quickly. You are mine now. And I will slaughter every last one of them before I ever let you face the dark alone again. You are the only thing I have ever wanted to keep alive. And I will drown this city in blood before I let anyone take you from me." - Roman Ashford __ To Avery, silence is the only way to stay invisible. She works the lowest post in the Ashford Empire, smiles at everyone, and keeps her real work locked away: the unsolved cases, the cold files, the predators the system let walk free. When she accidentally draws the attention of the man who runs everything, she thinks she has made a quiet, forgettable mistake. She has no idea she just became the singular focus of the most dangerous man in the city. Behind the perfect suits and polite distance, Roman Ashford is the Ghost Prince - the serial killer who has spent years methodically erasing the worst monsters from existence. He does not want her gratitude. He does not want her fear. He wants her complete, quiet understanding. Avery thinks the empire is simply efficient; she does not know Roman is already eliminating every threat that breathes near her. She thinks she is still searching for justice in the dark; she does not know he has been watching her search the entire time, waiting for the moment she realizes the hunter has already chosen his prize. He is not the gentleman the world sees. He is the blade that moves when no one is looking. And she is the only person he has ever decided is worth keeping alive at any cost. ___ "The Ghost Prince | 18+" is the 2nd special edition book in the Princes of Ardencrest Series. {Can be read as a standalone}

I was supposed to be reading the novel. Not waking up inside it. And definitely not as *her*. Not the heroine. Not the saintess. Not even as the side character..... But as the Villianess......

Shen Ruoxi died with one regret: loving the wrong people too deeply. When she wakes four years before her death, the future she remembers begins to unravel. Every choice she changes exposes secrets that were never meant to surface- and the truth waiting for her is more dangerous than the fate she came back to escape.

"It's my curse, and my duty. I have to do it, Azrael!" I cried out from the other side of the room, as the ground shook and cracks formed in the tiles. I was terrified. Terrified of what might happen to me, in the scenario that this fails. If I fail, I'd be haunted by her forever. I couldn't - wouldn't, let myself succumb to her. This was my fight. "Princess, I swear, if anything happens to you, I'll go crazy. Just stop!" Azrael shouted above all the noise. While I was lost in thought, everything had become more chaotic. The storm outside, the lightning and thunder that made me jump everytime it occured. All it took was one leap of faith. One risk to take, and I'd be rid of her forever. -------------------------- Calliope Solace - the princess nobody knew existed. Since birth and until the age of fourteen, her father, the emperor, kept her locked up in a palace in hopes nobody would find out about her existence, and most importantly, the threat her touch brought. One touch is all it took for a living being to wither and fall in the hands of death - one touch, more deadly than a hundred swords. Callie couldn't be more loving despite her deadly curse. She believed in the fairytales and the happily ever afters, which is why she didn't rebel or complain even after learning that, through marriage, she'd be shackled to the sadistic emperor who loved nothing more than to see people suffer; Azrael Ivanov. What she didn't know, was that Azrael had his own reasons to marry her, in the pursuit of vengeance and revenge to her father. [A/N] This is book 2, continuing in the same universe as 'Althea' my previous book. This is Callie's (Aias' sister's) book! However, it can be read as a standalone! All pictures belong to their respective owner, I only own the idea and the storyline etc!
