Arc Two: What Hunts in Darkness
Rune thought the nightmare was over. The chains are gone. The collar is gone. She's back where she belongs beside Killian, with Theodore's arms wrapped around her neck and Alexander pretending he wasn't worried sick. She has a home. But someone is still watching. The estate where Rune was held reveals something far more dangerous than a kidnapping. Hidden records, coded payments, and years of carefully gathered observations point to a conspiracy far larger than anyone imagined. Valmont was only a pawn. The men who died were only pieces on a board nobody could see. As Killian and Alexander begin tearing apart the network hidden within the kingdom, old secrets begin resurfacing. Noble families grow nervous. Records vanish. Witnesses disappear. Somewhere beyond the border, an enemy who should have died twenty years ago is patiently waiting. And he has not forgotten. While the hunt for the truth grows darker, Rune finds herself caught at the center of a mystery she doesn't understand. The more answers they uncover, the more impossible her existence becomes. Someone is searching for the truth of what she is-and how she came to be. Because not every monster waits in the shadows. Some are hunting from them. And as the kingdom's secrets begin to unravel, Rune will learn that being found once does not mean she is safe. Only that the hunt has begun.
I Faked Amnesia to Marry the Villain
[Synopsis Title: After I Forgot My Fiancé, Both Tiger Brothers Went Crazy] Tessa Carter is supposed to be the disposable side character-the desperate human fiancée clinging to two tiger-shifter brothers in a state-mandated engagement no one wants. Damian Sterling, the cold elder brother and powerful Minister of Finance, can barely hide his disgust for her. Julian Sterling, the younger brother in a wheelchair, is gentle, beautiful, and far too kind. Then a car accident changes everything. When Tessa wakes up, she can suddenly see strange floating comments mocking her life like it's a story already written. According to them, she's the pathetic cannon-fodder chasing a man who will never love her, while the "real" heroine waits in the wings. So Tessa makes a decision: if the script wants her broken, she'll rewrite it herself. She fakes amnesia, dumps Damian first, and starts cutting every tie that ever made her weak. But walking away only makes Damian obsessed, and Julian's soft smile hides claws sharper than anyone realizes. As the Sterling brothers turn their rivalry into a war over her, the nightmare Tessa thought she escaped comes back for her-the powerful monster who once bought her life and called her his flower. Now Tessa isn't just fighting for love, or revenge, or freedom. She's fighting to survive in a world of shifters, power, and men who want to own her. And when the truth finally comes out, the question isn't which brother will choose her- It's whether Tessa can survive being wanted at all.
The Villainess Knows What She Did: The Second Life of Evelyn de Harcourt
NOTE: Chapters are uploaded twice weekly. Wednesdays & Saturdays She died at twenty-four. Evelyn de Harcourt was dragged to the execution block broken, burned, and stripped of everything she had ever been. The last thing she saw before the blade fell was a smile - satisfied, entertained - from the one person who had always wanted her destroyed. She wasn't innocent. She knows that. The cruelties she committed, the people she hurt, the isolation she built around herself like armour - all of it handed her enemies exactly what they needed to finish her. But knowing what you did wrong doesn't make dying for it any less terrible. She has been given something she didn't earn and doesn't deserve. A second chance. This time, Evelyn de Harcourt will not be the girl who burns every bridge and calls it strength. This time, she will not give them the weapons. This time, she will not make it easy. She remembers everything. Every mistake. Every cruelty. Every move her enemies made before she even knew they were enemies. Let them try again. Dark fantasy. Villainess regression. Reverse harem. Not a clean redemption story.
