The story of a reincarnated villainess. 

"It's your life now." 

Sometimes we find peace in our constant suffering, sometimes we break free of our suffering, 
but sometimes, we escape to a foreign land were, where newfound family becomes our own. 
Then we call that place home.

Evanora Esmeray. A talented magician. Under her cold persona and her image as the aristocrat society leader, and a villainess, she hides the warmth she has for her family and friends. It's not surprise that she couldn't leave a man dying in the forest, but did she know what trouble she was getting into? Of course not. 

Crown prince Lucian De Conlaed Alastair. As majestic as a royal can be. Even after spending years in the battlefield nothing was able to remove his glamor. He was indeed a blessing from the gods. But sometimes this blessing is also found under trees of forests. Often drunk. And sometimes stabbed. Either works for him. 

And two people who were bound to never collide, crashed into each other. And oh, how fate turns the strings.

I stop, putting my hands on my hips. "Are you going to order all of them?" "If I want to, yes, I will." He doesn't budge. I sigh, sitting next to him. "You know that you don't have to do this. I can go buy my own dresses." "I know, but I want to see you wear dresses that I chose. Besides, is it so wrong to want to spend time with you?" ______ Note: This is entirely my work.

9 parts Ongoing Mature
COMING SOON SNEEAK PEAK. ESME "Darling," a voice purred while my mouth parted in awe. His hands glided against my skin making every where they touch burn with desire. My hands rushed to myself but a hand immediately grabbed it. His voice groaned disagreement while he pinned my hands above my head. "Love, patience is key," his velvety voice muttered into my ear. "But-" I began but immediately was interrupted by his hands making their way between my thighs. His finger grazes against my soaked underwear, teasing me while his blood-red eyes stared down at my withered expression. My mouth opened to beg him to touch, to pleasure me, to take me. "Lu-" just as am about to say the name the a man who's been taunting me, my eyes cast wide against my will as the sound of my alarm clock awakens me. No! I was so close to finding out his name! Night after night I keep having dreams about him yet I don't even know his name! Just that his eyes are red which can indicate that he's a creature, particularly a vampire. But witches and vampires rarely get romantically involved with each other. I sigh before hitting my head against my bed while staring frustratingly at the ceiling. My hands raised towards the birthmark on my neck, touching it just enough for me to get a small sensation. Who is he? And why do I always dream about him? _________ LUCIAN Lucian's mark burned making his eyebrows furrowed at the sudden sensation. "Sir?" his butler called as he turned his gaze over to him. It can't be. He dawned rubbing his skin at ease. He hadn't felt this sensation since 14 years ago. His beloved. His mate, he can sense her now. His mouth widens forming into a beautiful smile that shocked his butler. He hadn't seen his master smile in centuries. Not since- Which would only mean one thing. The queen is back. The woman who had shown their king how to love and care for others has returned. Queen Esmemina is back.

The Atonement of a Writer by 1OnceUponAFairytale1

Lilianne Marineau, aka Lili, a struggling writer like you and me, wakes up to find herself in the body of Arielle Dumont, the female protagonist in her own, half-written novel. What would happen next? She sure as hell doesn't know. At first, all Lili wants to do is survive, and is overcome with the feeling that she had been bound by chains of her own making. Soon enough, though, she realizes she had been atoning for the wrong thing--and maybe, just maybe it was not her fault. A story of a writer who has to live as a character in a world she hasn't quite fully developed yet. A terrible writer with terrible concepts of magic in a fantasy world--and yes, there are glitches. TW: anxiety/depression/existential crisis esp in the earlier chapters, but quite mild, nothing we all haven't experienced before (I think anyone would reasonably panic in MC's situation). Still overall fairly lighthearted

"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.
