Once a princess with a kingdom at her feet, Lorelai Violette now prowls the underbelly of a fallen demon empire—a discarded succubus, stripped of her title, beaten into servitude, a plaything for those who once bowed before her. But beneath the broken girl, something waits. Something hungry. Something that refuses to stay forgotten. She does not beg. She does not kneel. She does not forgive. She screams. And she demands blood. Shattered and without a trace of hope, she will take back what was stolen—power, throne, and bloodied crown alike. In a cyberpunk underworld fueled by ancient magitek—where flying ships haunt the skies and firearms burn with crystalline energy—Lorelai navigates the seven deadly cities, each ruled by a monarch embodying sin. Here, politics is a blood sport, and her greatest enemy isn’t the warlords standing in her way—it’s the darkness inside her. A volatile shard of her ego that hungers for destruction, for power, for pleasure—and sometimes all at once. Her only ally? A brooding vampire and reluctant Monarch of Wrath. She lures, he bites. She is reckless, and he knows too much. Together, they must walk the red-threaded line and admit nothing, lie, cheat and soak their way to the top. But as Lorelai claws her way to power, one question remains: What if vengeance isn’t enough? CONTENT ADVISORY: This novel explores themes of trauma, identity, abuse, power, and survival. It contains graphic violence, sexual content (including non-consensual elements), and psychological distress. Please read with care.

Legends claim that Hwarins are mythical creatures gifted with the sacred ability to glimpse into the future. But even that supposed blessing did not fall upon Haon, for he was born blind. His powers, if they existed at all, were defective and incomplete. And yet, despite all his limitations, he could not understand why the King of Tsubiron, a man of the highest stature, was obsessed with him to a dangerous extent. “Let me break those legs before you can even think of escaping!” The cruel man said with a sadistic smile, making Haon shudder even more in his overwhelming presence. None of it made sense, and the mysteries surrounding him seem endless. That was when an achingly familiar, yet gentle voice reached his ears, “Do you want to take my hand?” “…?”

In a quiet town cloaked in rain and routine, a girl who rarely speaks stumbles upon a strange, forgotten book hidden in her attic. Its pages whisper fragments of a tale long buried—a story of monsters sealed underground, a child who fell, and a truth twisted by time. But many pages are missing. Gaps in memory. Pieces of a puzzle the world wants to forget. Compelled by the mystery and driven by a need she can’t explain, the girl sets out for the legendary Mount Ebott—the last known gateway to the Underground. One stormy night, she watches the mountain from afar, unable to shake the feeling that something is calling her. The next morning, she quietly leaves her home and begins her journey, alone. At the entrance to the Underground, she meets a robed figure with no face—a man who seems to know more than he says. He warns her not to continue, to turn back before the story repeats itself. But when she refuses to leave, he offers her the one thing she’s never had: the truth.

Lily was the light in his world of shadows. But Yen was never just a husband—he was her captor, her obsession, her undoing. In a world ruled by power and twisted loyalty, their love was always doomed. Where it began. And where it ended.

Jaquer had only two dreams. One, become an elite demon hunter; two, marry Princess Hader. But both of his dreams were crushed by a single name, Venor. The newfound commander of the demons. When he thought his life couldn't get worse, the entire scenario turned like a twisted knife when he was sent to slave under the demon commander. Sacrificed as a scapegoat for the kingdom, he and his hunter team, along with the princess, were exiled to the Demon Realm. Feeling betrayed and disappointed by their very own people, they made a brilliant plan to escape. But was it easy? No, there were several barricades to cross and, importantly, or strangely, Venor was always looking out for Jaquer, as if expecting any trouble from him. **** "Feed me, little thing." Venor glanced at the angry little man but still opened his mouth to be fed. Jaquer bit his lower lip as blood of rage boiled under his skin. But he had no choice. Did he? Therefore, he took the fork and projected towards Venor. Towards his mouth? No. Towards his eyes? Yes.

I fell asleep playing a twisted otome game… and woke up as its most hated villainess. Now I’m Davina Emerson — the imperial princess feared by all, executed in every ending, and cursed to die no matter which route I take. Worse? A cold-hearted system appeared, telling me this isn’t a dream. If I want to survive and return home, I must complete every mission it throws at me. Or die trying. And my first mission? Raise the favorability of the male leads — the very men Davina once enslaved, humiliated, or betrayed. A prince once chained in her bedroom — who now smiles while planning her execution. A knight stripped of honor, who treats me like a battlefield. A saint defiled by sin, who once prayed for my soul… and now craves my touch. An ex-fiancé turned rebel, who fights for justice — even if it means my head on a spike. A “loyal pet” bought from the black market — who might be a predator in disguise. They’re all obsessed. They’re all twisted. And they all want me dead… or worse. This world isn’t a game anymore. Every kiss hides a blade. Every favor hides a trap. To survive a twisted reverse harem, I’ll have to outplay the story itself.

I myself buried her delicate body with my own hands, then why do I feel bonds around this girl named Tiara? " Enzo questioned a couple. "Don't worry, she can't be awakened unless we lift that spell", Someone assured another werewolf. "Why did you do that, dad? You ruined my entire life. Am I not your child?" Tiara cried.

[Good news]: She transmigrated into the well-known Phantom of the Opera [Bad news]: It was the horror movie version! After waking up, Bo Li discovered that she had transmigrated to the 19th century. In the 19th century, smog was severe, tuberculosis was prevalent, and sanitary conditions were bleak. It was possible to step into a pile of manure at any moment. To make matters worse, she had transmigrated into a crossdressing circus worker. This was an era where short-haired, pants-wearing women would be harshly judged, so no one doubted her gender. They just thought she was an overly pretty boy. However, as time went on, she would grow taller, and her feminine features would become more obvious. The circus was a mixed crowd. If she didn't leave before adulthood, her crossdressing would be exposed sooner or later. Before leaving, she convinced an abused teenager in the circus to leave with her. She planned on opening a haunted house with him. Author's Note: Bo Li is mentally 6 years older than Eric, but they're physically the same age. Eric is a SERIAL KILLER and extremely possessive of Bo Li. Bo Li will be a little afraid of Erik at the beginning, but she will soon enjoy his behavior. After all, If the male lead's every action doesn't poke at the heroine kinks, then what's the point? One-sentence summary: The male lead is even more yandere than in the original 'Phantom of the Opera'. My Other Works: The Imperial Concubine is the Most Favored in the Harem.
