    Jeon Jeongguk is not just a demon-he is the Duke of Solraine, commander of its armies, and the kingdom's most dangerous weapon. Feared, respected, and untouchable, his life is one of cold perfection. He hates humans, hides behind his arrogance, and decides with a single glance who is worth trusting... and who deserves to die. A demon duke feared by all. And A cursed child with eyes too bright to forget. The moment his eyes found him. He took the boy into his world. Against reason, against the walls he built, Jeongguk takes him in. A single choice that unravels centuries of silence and sets into motion a fate he cannot ignore. He protects what the world has tried to destroy; in the quiet between curses and chaos, loyalty whispers the loudest, and some bonds are older than memory, deeper than reason, and heavier than any curse. A love that should have been theirs, yet the world refused to allow it. "It was never forbidden to begin with!" A destiny that cannot be undone. TopJk • BottomTae

    Kurosawa Ayame was just a scriptwriter. When the otome game 'Jujutsu x Romance' was released, controversy exploded, especially over the route of Ryomen Sukuna. Too eerie. Too cruel. Too many bad endings. Players raged. Ayame only laughed. After all, wasn't that exactly how he was supposed to be? Then she woke up - inside the very game she had written. A cold system prompt greeted her: [Route locked. Exit unavailable.] [Players will not die in the main storyline. As long as the body remains intact, revival is possible.] [Reminder: Maximize the target's favorability to return to reality.] There was only one problem. Her assigned target... was the King of Curses himself. Ayame had no intention of falling in love. To her, it was just a task, a dangerous game she had to clear to get home. So she played. She died. Again and again. Learned. Adapted. Survived. And still, she moved forward, raising his favorability step by step. Until- [Congratulations, player. You have obtained: Wishing Machine.] A shortcut. A perfect betrayal. Ignoring the system's warning, Ayame made her choice. And it worked. She escaped. Returned to reality. ...Or so she thought. Because the next moment- She opened her eyes in 2018. [Favorability requirement not met. Minor penalty applied.] Kurosawa Ayame had a very bad feeling about this.

    After six years in a progressive French boarding school, eighteen-year-old Lady Alice returns to her family's estate in Surrey, dreading the fate that awaits her-- debutante balls, an arranged marriage, and a life she does not want. She would have preferred to stay in France, teaching and writing love tales rather than living one dictated by others. Once cast aside by her own father and a stepmother, Alice finds their sudden desire for reconciliation hollow. Only her childhood best friend, Michael, Marquess Lovelace, seems like a true comfort. But as she settles back into her former home, something strange begins to happen. A black rabbit, eerily familiar, appears in the shadows-- just like the one that belonged to Edmond, her long-forgotten imaginary friend. And then she meets Count D'Arcy, the enigmatic and elusive neighbour whose presence unsettles her. His eyes, his voice, his very being remind her of Edmond. Could it be him? Or is her mind playing tricks on her? As the social season unfolds, Alice finds herself tangled in a web of mystery, romance, and the supernatural. The past and present blur, forcing her to question what is real, what is illusion, and whether love can exist beyond the bounds of reason. In the haunting halls of her childhood home and under the watchful gaze of Count D'Arcy, Alice must uncover the truth before she loses herself to the unknown. ~~~ Book One of a Duology. Followed by Unravelling Le Comte D'Arcy (coming this autumn).

    Lila Hart thought death was the end. She was wrong. When she wakes up inside a mysterious theatre where players are forced to perform deadly stories, she discovers that her new role is not a hero, a survivor, or even a villain. She is a doll. A beautiful little doll created for the most terrifying character in the entire production-Yolace, the immortal Witch who loves her "children" a little too much. In this world, every smile is a trap, every mistake can cost a life, and breaking character means facing the Witch's judgment. The other players survive by obeying the script. They bow. They pretend. They beg for mercy. But Lila has one problem... She hates being controlled. So when the Witch orders her to sit quietly like a perfect little doll, Lila does the most unreasonable thing possible. She moves the entire sofa to herself. And somehow... The Witch smiles. Instead of punishment, she earns the Witch's attention. Instead of death, she gains power. Instead of becoming another victim, she becomes something far more dangerous. A doll with a mind of her own. But the Theatre is watching. The players are watching. And the Witch is starting to wonder- Why does her favorite doll feel like someone else? In a world built on scripts, the most dangerous thing you can be is a character who starts rewriting the story.

    "Panahon na rin ang lumipas simula nang ikaw'y nawala. Sa isang marikit na ala-ala ay hindi ko maiwasang pigilan ang pagpatak ng aking luha, lalo na't lagi 'kong na-aalala ang iyong maamong hitsura at matatamis mong ngiti na nagdudulot sa akin ng saya. Sabihin mo, hanggang dito ka na lamang ba sa aking imahinasyong kay ganda, aking sinta? Hindi ko kayang kalimutan ka. Ikaw lamang ang nagbigay ng kulay at liwanag sa aking masalimuot at madilim na buhay, na tulad ng isang magandang nobela. Ako'y nangungulila na sa iyo. Hintayin mo ako. Hahanapin kita kahit saang sulok pa ng dako ng mundo, aking sinta." - Nicholas Penrose

    After her husband walks away from their marriage, Odessa Vale is left with six daughters, mounting debt, and Blackthorn Manor-a sprawling estate that is falling apart faster than she can afford to repair it. Everyone tells her to sell. Everyone tells her to leave. Odessa refuses. Blackthorn Manor has sheltered generations of her family through love, loss, and heartbreak. Abandoning it feels too much like abandoning herself. As Odessa struggles to keep the estate standing and hold her family together, help arrives from an unexpected source. Theodore Ashcroft, a reserved landowner with a quiet reputation for fixing problems, offers friendship when she needs it most. What begins as small acts of kindness slowly grows into something neither of them expected. But healing a family is harder than repairing a house, and before Odessa can embrace a future, she and her daughters must learn how to live with the wounds left behind by the man who chose to leave. A sweeping story of family, grief, resilience, and second chances, The House That Stayed is a slow-burn romance about the people who leave, the people who remain, and the places that teach us what home truly means.
