The Demon's Promise
Left on a lonely beach as a child, Seren was found by a kind couple and raised in a quiet coastal village - but the sea never forgot her, and neither did the darkness that brought her there. As Seren grows, strange things follow her: flickers of power, whispers in her dreams, a feeling that something is waiting just beyond the waves. Despite her warmth and quick wit, she's a troubled girl - haunted by visions she can't explain and a voice that sounds too much like her own. When tragedy strikes and Seren falls into a coma, she awakens in a world between life and death... and comes face-to-face with the truth: her mother is no human. She is a demon - ancient, furious, and ready to reclaim what she made. Seren escapes back to her world believing her mother's lies of love and redemption. But as the years pass, the sky begins to fracture, the oceans burn, and the truth surfaces - her mother is the one ending everything. Now, with her powers spiraling out of control and the world collapsing around her, Seren must face the woman who gave her life... and may be forced to take it away.Complete

The myth of Équili. I will find you in every life - series.
She was never meant to awaken... and he was never meant to care. Sarina has spent her life hiding a power that shouldn't exist-one that even the ancient fairies fear. When a violent surge exposes her abilities, she is sent to train under Ariel, a cold, exiled warrior whose own past is buried in betrayal and silence. He is everything she despises: strict, unreadable, merciless in his methods. She is everything he didn't expect: stubborn, fragile... and terrifyingly powerful. Their world is fractured between elemental bloodlines, sacred myths, and a forbidden book lost to history. Kingdoms are watching. Priests are hunting. Something old is waking beneath the surface-and Sarina might be the key to saving or shattering everything. But power comes with pain. Training feels like war. And the most dangerous thing in the temple isn't the magic. It's the way he looks at her when her power flickers. It's the way her heartbeat changes when he steps closer. In a world where loyalty is deadly and emotions are a weakness, two broken souls are forced together by fate... or something far more dangerous. Magic. Tension. Slow-burn obsession. This is not a love story. This is how it begins.
Painted Scars
The world only sees the spotlight. They see the idol-his smile, his perfection, the dream he sells. They don't see the shadows that follow him home. Taeyoung built an empire out of music, but not even fame can silence the voice of the past... or the memory of the girl he left behind. Jisoo thought she had escaped. Buried her secrets beneath ink, between pages, behind practiced smiles. But when a single message appears-"Stay away... You know the consequences,"-she learns the past doesn't stay buried. It waits. Patient. Merciless. And now, in the city where everything began, their worlds collide once more. Desire and betrayal. Secrets and scars. A love that feels like salvation- and a truth that could ruin them both. -------- Because some stories don't end. They haunt you.
Daylight
In a city that never slows down, two strangers cross paths without even meaning to. Nothing changes that day - or so it seems. But every story has a first page, and theirs begins here.
