When war strikes between the great cities, Sierra Hayes is sent on an assassination mission to kill the monarch of Thry and rescue the captured Amahra. But on the way, she acquires new accomplices. But she has to figure out who not to trust, and more importantly, who to trust.
Lucifer O'Conner is your average popular guy at school. He never stood out until the night he nearly died. Then, he meets a mysterious, rude girl by the name of Sierra Hayes. His life changes entirely as he fights the guilt of killing someone while trying to keep Sierra safe; because he thinks that she will end up dying because of her recklessness, or because of him.

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
