Sabine Lewis didn't come to Seoul to fall in love. She came to work. As a creative producer and lighting specialist at one of the most powerful entertainment companies in Korea, she has one job: fix what's broken. That includes the stage presence of Kase Liu, the playboy main rapper of STARDUST, whose charm has never met anyone immune to it. Until now. What starts as professional friction becomes something neither of them planned and neither of them can name. She's too smart for his games. He's too perceptive for her walls. And the industry watching them both has never been kind to people who feel things they aren't supposed to. When one secret becomes impossible to keep, everything they've built and everything they've protected gets placed on the same line. Careers. Reputations. A future neither of them asked for but neither can walk away from. Sabine won't be erased. Kase won't be the man he's afraid he already is. And the company that owns their contracts doesn't care about either of those things. This is a slow burn. This is a scandal. This is two people learning that the life you build in secret is still a life worth choosing. Mature themes. Explicit content. No character bashing. AMBW. ©️ _RelleLebby_//R. L.

A heartbeat. Then another. A woman's trembling voice. "Do you know what it feels like... when the person you loved becomes the reason your world ends?" Newspapers fly through the rain. FRAUD. TRAITOR. DISGRACED. Y/N stands alone as cameras flash. No one believes her. A cold male voice. "I did what I had to do." A lonely penthouse. An untouched dinner. Rain streaking across floor-to-ceiling windows. A wedding ring left on a table. A man who once had everything... now has nothing. "I was wrong." Y/N opens her apartment door. Taehyung stands outside. Soaked by rain. Eyes hollow. Silent. She stares at him with years of hatred. Then- SLAM. The door closes. Someone whispers- "The truth was buried for years." A car explodes. A masked figure watches from the shadows. A file stamped CONFIDENTIAL lands at Taehyung's feet. Y/N screams his name. His hand reaches for hers- -but they're torn apart. One final whisper. "Some betrayals destroy love..." A pause. "Others become the reason it survives." ASHES BEFORE DAWN Hate. Betrayal. Loneliness. Guilt. Love.

"Before I could chop him up like one of my old dolls, I realized a startling revelation: I loved Tyler Galpin. It's irrational and reckless, but as my mother would say, so am I." This story picks up after season 2: While on the hunt for Enid, Wednesday finds herself in Hyde territory during an impending winter storm. The last person she expects to come to her rescue is the Hyde she set free and gave a second chance to in Iago Tower: Tyler Galpin. Tyler never expected to see Wednesday again, but after witnessing her nearly be shredded by Hydes, he vows to save and protect his merciful ex. Between surviving Camp Hyde, returning to Nevermore, discovering a rising cult sacrificing students, and saving Enid, Tyler and Wednesday's relationship is constantly challenged and interrupted (partly thanks to Fester). Both must fight for what they truly want and for each other. In this enemies-to-lovers, second chance Wyler fanfiction romance, Tyler Galpin gets a second chance at being a hero and overcoming his past and the mistakes he made. Wednesday has the chance to see the part she played in Tyler's villain story and to overcome her own insecurities and fears. Both are given the opportunity to start over and be together without secrets, vendettas, or ulterior motives hanging over the relationship. Written from a present-tense, dual POV, we get to get inside both character's minds. POVs switch between chapters. New chapters to be uploaded weekly.

She flew to Seville to save her family's future. She did not know what she was flying into. Kamilah is sharp, composed, and prepared for an arranged marriage that will merge two resort empires and preserve everything her family built. What she is not prepared for is the scale of what has already been constructed against her: a calculated campaign to make her walk away, a contract clause she was never shown that makes walking away impossible, and a man who is more dangerous because he has convinced himself he is justified. Diego did not want this marriage. He had other plans and other loyalties. He deployed them without mercy. And he was very good at it. What neither of them planned was her. Tides of Torment is an international slow-burn romance with real darkness behind the luxury. Corporate warfare, buried secrets, psychological manipulation, betrayals from people who looked like allies, and a woman who refuses to be unmade by any of it. The story moves from the courtyards of Seville to the streets of Old Havana to the tango halls of Buenos Aires and back again, building heat slowly and deliberately until it is impossible to contain. The cruelty is real. The reckoning is real. So is what grows in the space between them when there is nothing left to hide behind. ©️ _RelleLebby_// R. L.

"I wrote him as a monster... Now I must live as him." Carter, a struggling author, wakes up trapped in the body of Felix von Frederick-the very villain he created for his bestselling dark fantasy series. A spoiled nobleman with a legacy of cruelty, Felix is destined to betray his family, unleash a demonic war, and die a coward's death. But Carter refuses to play his part. Armed with knowledge of the story's future and a mysterious golden eye that whispers of forgotten prophecies, he fights to rewrite Felix's fate. Yet, the world resists his changes. The more he defies the original plot, the more the universe twists back: allies turn suspicious, enemies emerge too soon, and the black-marked cult-a faction he barely fleshed out in his drafts-hunts him as a "false soul." But the hardest challenge? Telling apart his own guilt from Felix's lingering sins... because the line between author and character is blurring. "The greatest story he ever told... was his own curse"

CREATIVE CAULDRON ENTRANT || LAVENDER JADE MINI AWARD PARTICIPANT || A bully x bullied BL about pride, chaos, and falling for the last person you should. Deacon Beauregard is rich, powerful, and raised to believe cruelty is just "honesty."

When a school field trip forces them to share a hotel room, the unthinkable happens: they talk. What starts as a full-scale war turns into an uneasy truce, then something far more dangerous-understanding.

In a colony where Spanish blood opens doors that talent alone cannot, Alfonso Linares de Espadaña is a walking lie. To escape starvation in Madrid, he allowed himself to be transformed into a distinguished gentleman and an acceptable suitor for the beautiful María Clara. But when his carefully constructed deception collapses, Alfonso loses everything-his status and the life he hoped to build. Reduced from honored guest to servant, he must embrace the truth he spent years hiding and struggle to reclaim his dignity in a society ruled by wealth, pride, and appearances. In a world governed by greed, malice, and power, can a disgraced man prove that true nobility comes not from birth, but from character? Inspired by José Rizal's Noli Me Tangere, this reimagined historical drama follows one of its most overlooked and controversial figures.

The war for the soul of the galaxy was never meant to be won alone. After the death of Yoda, Luke Skywalker is left with more questions than answers. But when the ghost of Obi-Wan reveals that Anakin Skywalker once had an apprentice, a warrior named Ahsoka Tano, Luke embarks on a new path, one that could change the fate of the galaxy... or doom it forever. Ahsoka, long thought lost to time, emerges from exile with grim knowledge: she's already faced Vader and nearly died trying to save the man he once was. To her, Anakin Skywalker is gone. But Luke isn't ready to give up-not yet. As the events of Return of the Jedi unfold, a new force enters the throne room of the second Death Star. Just as Luke faces death, Ahsoka returns, and together, they challenge fate, Palpatine, and the darkness within Anakin Skywalker himself. But even the end of the Empire is just the beginning. Years later, Ahsoka resurfaces at Luke's fledgling Jedi temple, where a hidden student named Leia Organa begins her first steps into the Force. Ahsoka and Leia form a fragile, fiery bond, one that tests their ideals, their pain, and their shared lineage. This is not the story you know. It's the one that almost was.

Ana was never supposed to feel anything. Not guilt. Not love. And definitely not the spark of something human when she looked at Grayson Hawthorne - the boy she was sent to kill. She's a weapon, trained to vanish without a trace, to sever emotion before it ever roots. But then came the ambush, the nightmares, the shared silences between them. Now the heir she was meant to destroy is the only person who makes her feel seen - and that terrifies her more than any mission ever has. Because if he ever finds out the truth, it will destroy them both. Grayson doesn't trust her. Not really. She's dangerous, sharp, a mystery he can't solve - and the only person who's ever made him forget who he's supposed to be. He should stay away. He should demand answers, lock her down, hand her over. But instead, he finds himself watching her bleed, shaking as she sleeps, falling for her when he knows he shouldn't. Because Ana isn't just some assassin with secrets. She's broken. She's brutal. And somehow, he's the one who wants to keep her alive. Even if it kills him. *New Chapter every Monday, 12 pm PT* ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This story contains themes and scenes that may be distressing to some readers, including: self-harm, PTSD, trauma, murder/assassination, parental abuse, dissociation, graphic injuries, and morally complex situations.

Team Zoe, led by Gaara the Kazekage and his siblings, and their senseis, has finally completed its trip to Stone Village, despite numerous setbacks and a detour to a few unexpected places. They thought they were finished, but the ever stubborn Cloud Village has actually extended them an invitation to visit it. The team is dubious about whether it's a wise plan, since they still have Sasuke Uchiha, the Cloud's most hated Leaf, and his old team, Karin, Suigetsu, and Jugo, in their party. But they press onward to Cloud anyway, and little do they know that they're about to uncover far more than they ever bargained for. Meanwhile in Cloud, Mabui, the humble assistant to Lord Ay, the Raikage (and the one person they saved from the Ten Tails attack) has been preparing for their arrival. While she'll be held responsible for how their visit goes off, is there another reason Ay has assigned her to them? And is she someone they can trust?

Primary characters are the Sand Siblings, the heroes from UA, Momo, Shoto, Dabi, Camie, and Bakugo, and the Leaf ninja. Some OCs are added from the first books.)

My breath trembled. "And what am I?" He stepped closer, slow and deliberate, like he was crossing a line he'd sworn he wouldn't touch. His hand hovered near my cheek, not quite touching, but close enough that I felt the heat of him. "You really don't know," he murmured, almost to himself. The bond hummed between us, low and insistent, like it was answering for him. He let out a breath, half a laugh, half a confession, the sound rough at the edges. "You think I haven't tried to ignore this?" he said. "You think I haven't fought it?" The warmth inside me surged, responding to him before I could. He leaned in until his forehead pressed to mine, his breath brushing my lips. "I can't walk away from you," he said softly. "I've tried. Gods, I've tried." My pulse stuttered. "Reagan..." His voice dropped to something raw, something he'd never meant to say out loud. "You're the one thing I was never meant to want. The one thing I'd defy a kingdom for." The bond flared hot and bright between us, like it recognized the truth before either of us did. His fingers brushed my jaw, barely there, but enough to make my breath catch. "You're mine," he whispered. "And no prophecy, no Temple, no fate is going to change that."

In a world where heroes save, and villains destroy, she exists somewhere in between-copying power, losing herself, and smiling through a mask that never feels real. Because some smiles aren't happiness. They're warnings. WARNINGS! HAWKS X OC DABI X OC BNHA X OC VILLAIN OC TODODEKU TOGARAKA NATSHIG FUYURUMI ERASERMIC

How do you stop the world from going to hell without losing your mind in the process? The newly-formed Avengers are still figuring out what it means to be Earth's mightiest heroes when a mission drops an ugly surprise: Hydra's not just alive - they're stronger than ever. Y/N is just trying to rebuild her life after a personal trainwreck, but fate (and SHIELD) have other plans. Now she's stuck on a high-stakes mission under the sharp, silent, and kind-of-infuriating watch of none other than ex-assassin Bucky Barnes. They'll have to work together - reluctantly, of course - to stop Hydra's rebirth. Good thing they've got a chaotic team of almost-heroes, definitely-traumatized sidekicks, and some serious unfinished business to back them up. Will the power of friendship (and maybe a little violence) be enough this time? Stay tuned.
