Prince Visual

What happens when an idol, renowned as "Prince Visual," is thrust into a marriage with the actual Prince of his country? **Disclaimer:** All establishments, terms, events, and characters featured in this story are entirely fictitious and crafted solely for the sake of entertainment. The story may contain sensitive topics. Royalty is often perceived as synonymous with perfection; however, the facade shatters behind closed doors. The Royal Family Wang, hailed as one of the most unproblematic influential families in the world, maintains its prestige primarily through curated features and polished articles. In truth, their legacy harbors secrets and bitter feuds—once revealed, could incinerate their esteemed reputation. Present at the center is King Wang Jae-Hwan, who, in a bid to secure his lineage’s claim to the throne, chose to marry into an influential Noble family. Beneath the polished exterior, however, lay deep-seated secrets. Although he professed love for his wife, loyalty was a luxury he couldn't afford; he betrayed her on their wedding night, resulting in the birth of a son. Wang Jae-Yul, unaware of his royal heritage, led a life filled with hardship and isolation. The king eventually discovered Jae-Yul, yet the Queen enforced her control that stifled any ambition or desire for power within Jae-Yul, effectively destroying any inclination to fight for the throne. In contrast, the life of an idol is similarly punctuated by high expectations and relentless pressure. The group LUMINA stands as a testament to perseverance, having been meticulously crafted from the ground up by its manager and visionary CEO, Han Eui-Jun. While the competitive landscape in the entertainment industry usually swallows its participants whole, LUMINA carved out a niche and rose to fame, bolstered primarily by its members' impressive backgrounds. Yet, the group’s most formidable asset was none other than the radiant visual and face of LUMINA, dubbed "Prince Visual," Lee Ha-Neul. His captivating charisma and talent created an undeniable draw, securing LUMINA's place in the industry. But the tale unfolds beyond mere struggles and bittersweet endings, as two individuals, who have devoted everything to the pursuit of success, find themselves entwined in a destiny marked by conflict and unexpected encounters. Jae-Yul's life changed when he lost his mother. She, having lived under the shadow of the Queen, made a solemn vow to protect Jae-Yul from the painful truth of his noble lineage, a choice that plunged them both into hardship and concealment. It was only after her untimely death that she unveiled her secrets, leaving behind a letter that detailed everything. Initially consumed with thoughts of revenge against the royal family, Jae-Yul soon realized that his desire would be futile against such powerful enemies. Jae-Yul began to rebuild his life, and through continuous struggle, he found himself standing before the king to reveal the truth. The king, realizing the Queen's influence, employed sufficient pressure on her until she reluctantly agreed to accept Jae-Yul. However, she imposed a strict condition: no one must know of his existence prior to this revelation. Fast forward 8 years, in an unexpected turn, Jae-Yul entered Ha-Neul's life and proposed to him through his influence. However, once engaged, he neglected Ha-Neul for 4 years, which made Ha-Neul end the engagement publicly. Faced with the reality that he could no longer manipulate Ha-Neul's feelings, Jae-Yul now had to figure out how to win him back. Would he resort to deception or intimidation, emotional manipulation, or find it within himself to genuinely love? The question loomed large: what would it take for Ha-Neul to be persuaded to marry Jae-Yul once again?

Crescent Hearts

Silas Sungjae Ahn thought university life would be a fresh start, a chance to explore a new city, meet new people, and maybe cook a few meals for his roommates. But his first semester at the University of Sydney becomes anything but ordinary. Born into a powerful werewolf pack and recently ousted for standing up to his alpha, Silas must now navigate college life as a lone wolf with a past that won't let him go. Things get more complicated when his best friend Jiwon, newly turned and unclaimed by any pack, unexpectedly becomes his roommate. When Jiwon joins Silas’s new, unofficial “pack” alongside his sister and childhood friend, Silas suddenly finds himself in a role he never wanted: alpha. As the small pack tries to stay under the radar and adapt to their shifting identities, Silas is haunted by a mysterious force; a sensation that overwhelms his senses, drives his wolf wild, and seems tied to the elusive and emotionally distant Minseok, their aloof roommate with secrets of his own. What begins as a story of friendship and self-discovery quickly unravels into something darker, more intimate, and dangerously powerful. With tensions rising in their apartment, desires surfacing, and unknown supernatural presences drawing near, Silas must confront the truth about what binds wolves together–and what threatens to tear them apart. Because the moon may control the tide of their transformations, but it’s the heart that determines who they become. (AN: yes, this was indeed a Fanfic at first, I can't change that setting anymore. If ur interested in the Fanfic version, it's on a certain orange colored reading app under the same title as it's here)

Oshi No Ko: Duet of Destinies

Orphanage walls whispered loneliness, but in Akira Ueno's heart burned a hunger for the spotlight. His voice, his moves were his only weapons against a world that saw him as invisible. Talent shows and underground gigs became his battlefields, fueled by dreams of escape and a desperate need to be seen. Whispers of record labels and fame swirled, a tantalizing glimmer just beyond his grasp. But fate took a cruel turn. A blinding flash, a truck, then darkness. Yet, a warm voice whispers a second chance, a new world. Transmigrated into the world of Oshi no Ko, Akira now holds the keys to potential stardom. Can he navigate this new path, and with a certain rising idol, discover how to love and be true to themselves? ====== Some more information before you hop into the fic: This book is very much inspired by the movie Yesterday and a fanfic I read: The Betrayed Hero and the Idol, but I want to keep the supernatural stuff to a minimum. Also, Akira will be using songs from this world as they don't exist in the world of Oshi No Ko. Akira is a performer, not a songwriter and the only one who would know the songs are not his is him. For full transparency I write the novel myself and use AI to proofread and be an editor for my work. I am more familiar with pop and rnb music so that is what I will be using most likely Since the timeline in OnK is confusing, I am going to go ahead and make my own: Ai Birthday: Jan 25, 2002 Akira Birthday: June 11, 2002 Aqua and Ruby birthday: April 28, 2018 Date when Akira Transmigrates: October 3, 2019
