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
Renevere Mars: Part One
Ren is not a warrior. She's aged well past 10 years old when children fight for a place at CaMere Grand Academy for the Exceptional Warrior. She will probably grow up to be a farmer, like her parents. In fact, she most likely will never leave her tinny town of Parinth... This is an episodic, weekly released young-adult, forbidden love story which takes inspiration from anime and magic-bassed action adventure fantasy. This story is not marked mature because I think people younger than 17 could appropriately read it, but there are sexual themes and violence. Part one and two is completed, part three ongoing.Complete
Demon Slayer: Scar of a Promise
In the shadowed depths of the world, darkness reigns supreme. Bloodied skies and tangled webs weave despair across the forest, where demons lurk with twisted ambitions and unwavering malice. Yet even amidst the chaos, the fates of unlikely warriors intertwine-each driven by their own resolve, their own battles to fight. Roronoa Zoro, a lone swordsman with a reputation as sharp as his blades, ventures into unfamiliar territory with only one goal: cut down what threatens the innocent and move on. But when the enigmatic Demon Slayer Corps cross his path, Zoro is dragged into a web thicker than he bargained for-one full of deadly demons, unyielding Hashira, and fragile alliances. Tanjiro Kamado, a boy fueled by love for his sister, fights not only to protect her but to hold onto his humanity in a world that seeks to strip them both of it. With Nezuko at his side, Tanjiro clashes against demons with a blade that grows stronger by the day-but his spirit refuses to yield, even when despair threatens to crush him. As Zoro faces enemies unlike anything he's encountered before, alliances will be tested, trust will be forged, and the enigmatic secrets of the Demon Slayer Corps will unravel. From heated clashes to fleeting moments of understanding, Zoro must confront not only the enemies before him-but the purpose behind his wandering path. In a world where humans and demons fight for survival, the bonds of loyalty, strength, and conviction will carve the way forward. But will it be enough to sever the threads of fate that bind them all? Thought I would finally publish this after Infinity Castle Part 1.

But the architect of their new lives has his own ghosts, and the price for his guidance remains unspoken.

However, the novel she read is not the reality she believed. ______ I tried on another, a red one this time. I twirl in its large skirt. "This one matches your eyes," I say as I spin. "This one too." 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. I want to see if I'm able to write something without a plot set up for me. I hope you like it!Complete
