It's a game...
A fairly simple game really.
All you have to do is win.
Simple, right?
Except the real questions that should be asked, are: what happens if you don't win? What happens if you lose? And most importantly... are you prepared?
These questions didn't matter to Faith Beauregard, she had one duty, one objective, one focus. She wanted to win. And that was exactly what she was going to do. Win.
No matter who pushed her down.
No matter who back stabbed her.
No matter who was in her way.

Victore Academy boarding school is a lot of things. To the outside world, it's the heaven of schools. For some students, it's an experience they'll never forget. For others, it's the place to start their careers. And maybe for a few, it's the peak of their lives and really as good as it's going to get for them. And for me... well, I'll need a bit more than this to talk about that. But before you step in, here's a few things that everyone makes note of: 1. The students have secrets. And money. It's hard to tell what more of, honestly. 2. Don't get a room on the West Side of the girl's dorms. The birds around that private property lake house downside from campus don't stop chirping at 5AM. It's unpleasant, to say the least. 3. Avoid Mr. Labadee's classroom at all costs outside of lessons, especially past fifth period. It's better off if you're left in the dark with this one. 4. That asshole from Spain that terrorizes all the young freshmen is not hot. However, girls do make note of the fact that he works out post seventh period and right before first, near the track field. 5. The Victor's Tournament happens every year for all the senior year students. It's a pretty big deal. 6. And I think Armin Rivers is probably going to kill someone before he wins it (and it's probably gonna be that Spanish asshole). cover by soundthealarmComplete

BLACKMAILED BY THE BILLIONAIRE
To the world, Harry Styles is untouchable-a billionaire playboy whose charm, wealth, and good looks make him the man everyone wants but no one can have. Arrogant and demanding, he lives in a world of excess, and his assistant Bella is the one holding it all together. But to Bella, Harry is a storm she's forced to weather-his ego as massive as his empire and his control over her life absolute. The breaking point comes when Bella, overwhelmed and desperate for freedom, attempts to resign. Her bid for escape is crushed by Harry's ruthless maneuver: a threat to expose a secret that could devastate her family and imprison her father. Trapped by the weight of potential scandal, Bella is left with no choice but to agree to his terms-one more year in his service. A year of late nights, impossible demands, and a boss who seems to delight in making her life miserable. But things take a darker turn when Harry's pride and arrogance lead to a high-stakes bet with his inner circle. Ben, a shrewd observer of human nature, notices that Bella seems immune to Harry's legendary charm and wealth. Doubting Harry's claim that no one is beyond his reach, Ben challenges him to seduce Bella-an impossible conquest. Harry, with his signature sardonic grin, makes a bold declaration: "Believe me, if I set my sights on Bella, she'd be interested. Everyone has a price, every heart has a key. I simply haven't bothered to look for hers." The terms are simple: if Harry succeeds in breaking through Bella's defenses and winning her over, he secures a lucrative investment and solidifies his dominance. If he fails, he risks losing a substantial share of his empire-a loss Harry refuses to consider. What starts as a calculated game of seduction soon spirals into something far more dangerous. As Harry works to unravel Bella, he begins to question whether he's the one being unraveled. And for Bella, resisting Harry's relentless pursuit means guarding not just her heart, but everything she holds dear.Complete

Til Death Tears Me Apart Once Again [Discontinued]
"If I'm going to die anyway, there's no point in trying to live." A typical reincarnated into a villainess story, except the protagonist isn't your typical 'I want my happy ending protagonist', but a death seeker. XX 《'Til Death Tears Me Apart, I Will Always Love You》is a very successful otome game. As much praise and admiration the game recieves, it is also, however, notorious for being absurdly difficult. One wrong step and the player would be drowning in an ocean of death flags, for both the Heroine and the Capture Targets. Anything short of perfection wouldn't even get the player a glimpse of a happy ending for the Capture Target the player chose. Enter me; Just a simple, normal girl reincarnated into a game as dangerous as that, as the villainess no less. Destined to die no matter what, I think there's no point in me trying to fight fate. If I'm going to die regardless, might as well die sooner rather than later. But that desire for death causes more than just a few changes to the definite plot; From little ones that have no effect at all, to life changing ones that may destroy the world of Arraxus. So the God of the world makes a deal with me: They'll give me a peaceful and happy afterlife, as long as I get a happy ending for myself. "Let the game begin!" -- Discontinued.Complete
