𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗜𝗦 𝗠𝗬 𝗢𝗥𝗜𝗚𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗬!! ✦━━━━━━༺༻━━━━━━✦ ➥ 𝑰𝒏 𝒘𝒉𝒊𝒄𝒉: She's your average villainess who has done all sorts of crazy things. Yes Cecilia or well the previous owner of her body had done all of those things. So technically it wasn't her... Cecilia Wolken regained her memories of her previous life after she tried to jump out of the window to end it all. The very moment she woke up, she tried to jump out of the window again. "Just let me die already" Unlike your average reincarnated person, Cecilia doesn't want to live so she tries to welcome the bad ending with open arms. And so she tries to, well die. To her dismay those annoying people just won't leave her alone. "What the hell are you up to this time?" Everyone was suspicious of just what she might be scheming. Accused of just being an attention seeker at first, people around her begin to realize her sudden personality change... "If I go, " she whispered against his mouth, almost brushing his lips, "I will haunt you. I will tear at the edges of your sleep. I will be the voice in your head that tells you nothing compares. I will ruin you for anyone who tries." Evander's hands slid around her waist, pulling her flush against him now, not pleading anymore. "You already have," he breathed. "You are not allowed to die without me," the duke said, his voice steady in a way it hadn't been before. "And I am not allowed to live without you." ♔ ───────── ♔ 𝑯𝑰𝑮𝑯𝑬𝑺𝑻 𝑹𝑨𝑵𝑲𝑰𝑵𝑮𝑺 (so far): ♔ ───────── ♔ #1 in fl #1 in deathwish #1 in living #1 in poison #2 in antagonist

The words graceful, proper, ladylike and elegant could never be used to describe Perrie Beresford, the eldest daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Ashwood. Perrie has always had a little too much fire in her to ever be classified as a beautiful young debutante, which is what she will inevitably become in her first Season. But romance, courting, and marriage are the last things on Perrie's mind. Especially when her nemesis, who was once an annoying classmate, suddenly appears in her home as her father's protégé. As Perrie is pushed towards the life of an adult by those around her, she can't help but be pulled into a game of wars within the walls of her very home. But Perrie is about to learn that the line between love and hate are very fine ... and perhaps might not even exist at all.

Disclaimer: This is a translation of the Chinese novel 长门怨 by Qiao Xi/乔夕 and not my own work. Translated by: Catharcity (https://catharcity.wordpress.com/2017/10/08/lament-at-changmen-palace-oneshot/) Fan Art Pic: 樂兮 Synopsis: If Wei Zifu loved you, then her story could only have ended the way mine did. If, from the beginning, all I wanted was only the precious throne belonging to an Empress, perhaps I would not have lost you as quickly as I had. Note: This oneshot narrates the true story between Emperor Han Wudi (Liu Che) and his first wife, the deposed Empress Chen Jiao. Their story has been encapsulated into a famous chinese idiom called "金屋藏娇" (jīn wū cáng jiāo), which literally means 'putting (Chen) Jiao into a golden house'.

"They may see you as how you try to be, but what I see is what you try not to be." SHE IS A BASTARD... Maxine Theobald hid from the rest of society to protect her father's name. But as she grows tired of her role-playing games every year during the famous Theobald weekend parties, she starts to question how she has been living her life. She starts to wonder about the other part of her that she was deprived of--her mother and why she left her. A DISGUISE... Having finally found the courage to search for the one thing that she believes can help her understand her true nature, Maxine cuts her hair, puts on her breeches, and runs away from the only home she has ever known. She travels to the affluent town of Wickhurst and found herself employed as the valet of the famous rake Nicholas Everard, a game she will later find to be quite dangerous. SOMETHING DIFFERENT... Maxine set out into an adventure with none but one goal, yet found herself stumbling upon an unlikely find for the search of something else--romance. Still set in the fictional place of the Town, this fifth book in the Everard Family series follows one heroine who has chosen to defy the norm and her own fears in an attempt to understand her own nature, the first step to a discovery of not just about her lineage, but of love so unexpectedly, irritatingly and undeniably powerful. (This story is a standalone title in the Everard Family series.)
