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?![The Duke's Relentless Obsession [COMPLETED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/393169748-256-k211159.jpg)

The Flower Longed Death
Princess Serena felt she was doomed to live a dreary, protected existence in the palace that she was prepared to end. Even once she inherits the title of Queen, the kingdom of Eden would never cease to protect its flower. Her fear of living a dull life ate at her until her tempting first love, Caius, renters it. He vows to free her of her sorrows with a promise of magic, adventure, and passion. She thought he would bring her the excitement she had been looking for, but joining her deadly infatuation would wilt Eden's flower to the brink of agony. ------------------------------------------------------------------- When he turned his ear to me, I noticed that I could see the right side of his mouth. I've used it as a substitute for eye contact. When he smirked just now, I felt myself tremble. "There's a corpse of my creation at my feet Serena. What makes you think I'm devout to religion?" That explains his willingness to sin. "You're a virtuous woman for keeping to your vows, but I am by no means a virtuous man." His intent to court me is not pure. It's certainly from his heart, but his cause is not only for my love. There's something that he must prove to me now... Whether his will is enough to turn me against my virtues. With each passing day I'm growing more weary that it might be. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Cover art by Erika De Luca on ArtStation This story is the first of a series Word Count: 147,000 Please read the introduction for triggers!

And he was a professional when it came to recklessness. It backfired, horribly, in every possible way. He almost died, fled his homeland, and then almost died again, but here he was, not really learning. "So dumb," the devil voice in his head whispered in disdain, "How more idiotic can you get?" "As far as idiocy goes deep," Lucian answered, accepting the new path of his life, one that might cost him his sanity, "And it goes deep. And wide." Goal: get wealthy and powerful enough to afford more idiocy Current arsenal: blood, sweat, tears, and pure wits Start point: gardener End point: unknown Method: whatever works "I'm a good person," Lucian claimed, "The 'whatever works' should be changed to 'whatever works morally and sensibly' and 'unknown' to 'a glorious victory'." The devil voice in his head laughed so hard he felt it in his bones, shaking him like a puppet on a string. ────────────────────────── THE CHARACTERS DO NOT BEGIN AS YANDERE, BUT THEY WILL SLOWLY FALL DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE AS THE STORY PROGRESSES.

In the moonlit kingdom of Lunaris, emotions are buried beneath layers of silence and duty. Among its pale spires and silver gardens lives Princess Lirael Nocturne, the heir to a throne sculpted from ice and expectation. Born with a face that never smiles and a heart that has never stirred, she is the perfect daughter of a kingdom that fears feeling. Princes from every corner of the continent come to win her hand-but none can melt her cold indifference. For Lirael, love is a word spoken often but never understood. She once asked her mother what happiness felt like. The answer never came. But when two new royal guards arrive-young men from a distant village-and a soft-spoken maid with warm hands is assigned to serve her, the silent world Lirael has always known begins to tremble. Among them is Caelan Thorne, a loyal guard whose heart belongs to another-his childhood friend Selene, now the princess's maid. Selene, however, has eyes only for someone else: Rowan, the charming second guard who doesn't know how much she's always meant to her. And in the quiet spaces between duty and longing, Lirael begins to feel something unfamiliar. Something warm. Something painful. Something that just might be love.Concluída
