Nasi Ever After by lengaarch

When Haro returns to his small hometown after the death of his estranged father, he's quickly swept into a storm of unexpected events.

While dodging a lawsuit from his former boss, Haro resolves to stay and rebuild the church, only to uncover a shocking revelation-he has a long-lost sister. Amid the chaos, the one bright spot in his life is Nasi, the warm yet enigmatic café owner whose quiet kindness begins to melt the walls Haro has carefully constructed around his heart. For Nasi, caring for others comes naturally, but allowing someone to care for him? That's a risk he's reluctant to take-especially with someone like Haro, whose past is as tangled as his own. As Nasi uncovers long-buried family secrets and Haro grapples with balancing duty and desire, their lives intertwine in unexpected ways. In a town bound by tradition and silence, their growing connection could change everything-if they can find the courage to embrace it.

An emperor who refused to rule with blood. A prince who refused to love with restraint. Elliott Lancaster, descendant of the sun and the gentle Emperor of the Vellurian empire, has spent his life avoiding war- and his father's attempts to force him into a political marriage. After his succession, instead, he adopted an orphaned noble boy, Aiden, raising him as both heir and an unlikely companion. But their bond was never that of father and son. How could it be, when they had less than a decade between them? Aiden Lancaster, the perfect prince in court and a storm of violence on the battlefield, has waited years to prove himself. He is devoted to his adopted father- some might even say, too devoted. Still, up till now, he was restrained by Elliott's desire for peace, despite their enemies poking them again and again. But Aiden's patience had its limits- but them touching Elliott was the straw which broke the camel's back. Now unrestrained, he wages a war so brutal it shocks the empire. When Elliott awakens to find borders redrawn in blood, he must confront the terrifying truth: the boy he raised has become a conqueror, and his devotion has twisted into something far more dangerous. As rival empire schemes and the nobility whispers about their unnatural bond, Elliott faces an impossible choice: maintain his morals and risk losing Aiden or embrace the ruthless love of the man who would burn the world to protect him.

Hear My Soul (Bl) by callahannnnnn

In this lifetime, Xiao Yu, the last descendant of the Moon Goddess, and Zhao Xianlan, the Heavenly Emperor, are destined to stand as opposing forces-like fire and ice. Yet what if destiny dared to rewrite their paths? Could love become the one force capable of bridging the divide? "Does our love mean nothing?" Zhao Xianlan asked, his words sharp and cutting, like the edge of a sword. "I do love you," Xiao Yu replied, "but sometimes love alone is not enough." "Remember this," Zhao Xianlan said, "I will carry the burden of hating you for the rest of my life. I relinquish my title as your Empress. In another life, I pray our paths never cross again." These were Xiao Yu's final words before darkness consumed him, like the last fading light of a setting sun. A heartrending tale of love, loss, and destiny, where even the strongest hearts may falter beneath the weight of fate
