Karissa Olivia Perez is your bookish, anime-loving 19 year old hopeless romantic who lived a simple life and wanted nothing more than to love and be loved deeply in return. Two years ago, while having a vacation in England, she thought she has finally found the love she has been seeking. Apparently not. Returning home with a broken heart, she invested all her time and attention at school and self-improvement. Her life went back to the way it was, or the way it should be as she slowly forgot about the boy she had met during her time in England. But not quite. He haunts her in her dreams with his deep, azure blue eyes, his laugh and his smile. And she was handling her "nightmares" quite well (or so she tells herself). Everything was fine and all, until one rainy Friday night of mid-June, her life as well as her family, turned upside-down, when her late grandfather's lawyer, a man they've seen only once their entire lives, went into their home and revealed another last will of testament entitling them an ownership to a group of successful corporations, a big mansion and an extremely huge sum of money. With him was also a letter to everyone in the family. It was on that night, unknowingly, her "nightmare" would haunt her back in person in form of one of her grandfather's wishes.

The Villainess Became The Male Lead's Secretary
Picture this: I suddenly find myself in a medieval fantasy world, like the ones I used to gobble up in books. But here's the comical conundrum: I've got no clue which exact story realm I've landed in. Well, you see, I have a habit of ditching books faster than a rabbit on roller skates if they don't captivate me. So now, I'm stuck navigating this new world armed with nothing but recycled plotlines, overused clichés, and predictable story arcs. It's like I'm playing a game with rules as simple as connecting the dots, but with my luck, it'll probably end up being more like connecting the dots during an earthquake! Who knows what kind of hilariously bizarre situations I'll find myself in? Original Story.Complete![In the Moonlight [Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/138923622-256-k482261.jpg)
In the Moonlight [Completed]
"Are you stalking me?" His deep voice asked. "You wish, that would mean I actually thought about you enough to wonder where you are." I looked away smugly. Max moved closer to me until his face was right in front of mine. "You're saying you don't think about me?" He smirked, fully knowing what the proximity was doing to me. "I don't, why? Did you want me to?" I Regained my composure as I moved even closer, our lips nearly touching. ~~~ Alexa is a normal girl who just wanted to get through school without any trouble.

The Duke Fell for the Villainess
She was just a tired grade school teacher in the modern world- unappreciated, overworked, and denied her promotion year after year. Her only escape was her favorite otome game... until a tragic accident with a banana peel ended her life. When she opened her eyes again, she wasn't in her small apartment anymore. She was in a luxurious mansion. In a child's body. The villainess of her favorite game. Born as the real daughter of a Marquis, she knew how her story was supposed to end: starvation, betrayal, poison, and death. Her stepmother and stepsister would steal everything from her, and her own father would let her die without a tear. But this time, she refuses to play the role of a doomed villainess. Armed with memories from her past life, loyal brothers at her side, and a sharp tongue sharpened by years of teaching, she'll rewrite fate itself. Yet the world of nobility is more dangerous than she imagined- scheming crown princes, false heroines, poisonous stepmothers, and a cold northern Duke whispered to be a beast. But what if the "beast" turns out to be the one man who sees her for who she truly is?Complete
Reincarnated as the Duke's Misunderstood Wife
I've been reincarnated into the very web novel I used to mock endlessly with my friends-and even in the comment sections. Who could blame me? It was the epitome of clichés: a forced marriage, endless misunderstandings between husband and wife, suffocating angst, the heroine's dramatic escape, and the inescapable regret of the so-called male lead. Predictable, frustrating, and utterly tiresome. Yet here I am, inhabiting the role of that very heroine in 'Husband Is Regretting.' My first priority? Divorce the walking red flag I've been shackled to. But for some reason, the more I ignore him, the more fixated he becomes. And if that wasn't confusing enough, a side character who was supposed to appear only once suddenly approaches me with a bold question: "Shall I be your secret lover?" What on earth is going on in this story? Owner of the cover X\@irt_5433Complete
