Arylis Marlowe has always lived a quiet life. She spends her evenings buried in books, walking home from the library long after the streets have emptied. Fantasy was something she read about, not something she ever expected to live.
But everything changes one night when she's attacked on her way home. Bruised and shaken, she reaches her apartment only to realize something isn't right. The walls are familiar, the streets look the same, yet the world feels... wrong.
There are strangers in places she knows by heart. Shadows seem to watch her. And the man standing in her home swears it doesn't belong to her at all.
Thrown into a world that mirrors her own yet twists at every corner, Arylis must confront a truth more dangerous than she could ever imagine. Because she isn't lost-she's somewhere else. And in this realm, nothing she thought she knew will protect her.

Beatrice Miller
(On hiatus) This story is pure chaos. You have been warned. I had always thought the world was too dull. I dreamed of a fantasy world filled with magic. I was an orphan and had no attachments to the real world. I should have specified my wishes more. Being the next target of truck-sama wasn't exactly on my bingo card. When I opened my eyes I was in a new body in a new world. And there was magic. It was a dream come true despite my painful arrival. But there was something suspicious about the all too bright world. And what was with the ridiculously good looking people? I was inside a novel I knew that much. But what novel I didn't know. Follow Beatrice as she learns that she might just be cursed with a rather troublesome curse. She navigates events with sarcasm and no social skills and tries to avoid the heroine. --------- There might be a lot of typos. It's a reincarnation story inspired by the many reincarnation manhwas I've read so far but with my own twist. English is not my first language. I might not be the best at wording things.
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.Lengkap
