A Cinderella Story in A Cultivation World

A Cinderella Story in A Cultivation World

[Two love interests, slow burn BL romance] Lee Wooyun had always been a fan of romance fantasy books and films, especially those set in historical times with kings and queens, dukes and duchesses, and the like. His friends were well aware of his obsession and recommended a book that had recently been making waves on social media. The book was titled My Charming Demon Lord. At first, Lee Wooyun was hesitant. Unlike the fantasies he usually read, which were often set in Western historical settings, this one was different. However, his friends assured him he would enjoy it. Not wanting to reject their gift, he decided to give it a try. That night, he found himself unable to put the book down, reading almost the entire thing in one sitting. "Those guys were right! It’s amazing! A Cinderella-like fairytale set in a murim/cultivation world? It’s too good!" He couldn't help but imagine how incredible it would be to take the female lead Han Seo-yoon’s place, starting from such a miserable beginning only to end up in the arms of the surprisingly sweet and gentle demon lord. I wish I could take her place. That night, as he drifted off to sleep, the book he had left open on his desk began to emit a golden glow. The pages flipped backward, returning to the very first chapter, and its contents began to change as well. The title My Charming Demon Lord pulsed with a piercing red light, and before Lee Wooyun could even react, his surroundings shifted. The next morning, instead of waking up wrapped in his expensive velvet duvet, the one he had spent hundreds of dollars on, he found himself in a dimly lit room, lying on a pile of hay and straw. His back ached horribly, like he had actually slept on a pile of hay and straw. "What in the world…?" he muttered, rubbing his sore muscles. "Where in the hell am I? And why does it smell like cow dung in here?!” *** This is the story of how a fantasy-genre enthusiast ended up inside one of the books he had wished for, without realizing just how dangerous that wish would be. "I guess it’s true what they say: Be careful what you wish for."

Cinderella Fell For Her Bully

Cinderella Fell For Her Bully

“W-what do you want to do?” He removed his hand from the doorknob and walked back towards me, placing his backpack down and looked back at me. “Come sit.” He said slowly. I followed him over to the bed and sat down. “What are we going to do?” I was so nervous but there was a slight hit of anticipation in my tone that made him looked excited. “I mean, are we just sticking with what we did last time or—?“ “Tongue.” He said bluntly. “What?” “I’m going to teach you how to really kiss a guy using your tongue.” ***************************************************** Stella Hemmings aimed to leave her wicked stepmother and evil stepsister behind because they treated her like Cinderella in the fairy tale story wherein they made her do the household chores and beat her. The only difference was that her stepmother sends her to school but on one condition. She had to hide her identity, like wearing a curly wig and round glasses. Why? Because she looked exactly like her mom and her stepmother hated her mom so much that she asked her to cover her face and make herself ugly. And just like Cinderella, she also has a Prince Charming but sad to say, he was bullying her. Stella had a huge crush on him but he never noticed because she’s ugly. He only had eyes on the sexy and famous cheerleader Maxine. Knowing she couldn’t compete with Maxine, Stella hid her feelings for Tyler Lewis. However, the stupid cupid played his role and let them crossed their path in an unexpected way. Stella needed a huge amount of money for the operation of her stepbrother’s heart surgery, so she asked her friend Lisa to help her. Her salary as a part time student in the coffee shop wasn’t enough to save money for Dino’s operation. So she went with Lisa to work in one of the famous nightclub in town but soon went into trouble and the guy who bullied her in the school, saved her and saw her without the wig and the round glasses. After that incident, she tried to avoid Tyler in the school as much as she could, for he might recognize her as the girl he saved that night in the nightclub. But how could she avoid him when her feelings for him grew from infatuation to love. And despite fighting hard to keep her feelings contained by distancing herself from Tyler, he was determined to show her that he had earned a spot in his heart.

My Evil Cinderella: Taming a Villainous Wife

My Evil Cinderella: Taming a Villainous Wife

"Villains are made by people, they weren't born evil." ... Ever wondered how things would turn out if the story was focused on a villain instead of the protagonist of the story? All villains are doomed to a bleak ending no matter what kind of story it is. This is the story of a REAL villain who already has a BAD ENDING prepared for her until someone decided to stray her away from the wrong path... She was not someone who ended up being misunderstood by others. Nope, not this one. The villain I am about to introduce to you all is a scheming, gold-digging demoness. Shi Enxi had it rough. At a young age, she experienced things that a child didn't deserve. She lost her parents and her relatives took advantage of it. Her life changed after she was adopted by her half-sister. From then on, she decided that she was not going to allow others to bully her ever again. She never had a good life so why should she allow others to have one? Yes, that's the hideous thought that made her the villain in someone's story. She grew up to be cunning, ruthless, and merciless. She destroyed so many lives, including the life of the person she loved the most. Lu Mello saw how Shi Enxi's life unfolded with his own eyes. But who would've thought that he, a spectator from the sidelines would play a major role in changing our villainess? Unlike Shi Enxi, he grew up in a loving family. Although, he never wanted to take over the family business. How would these two play destiny's game? Rivalry? Infatuation? What should be the outcome of the game? Them as enemies, or as lovers?  Of course, as lovers. . . . "Darling, when will you die? If you die then all of these riches will be mine!" "..." Uh... Die? Lu Mello looked at her, a bit startled with what she suddenly said. When will his wife stop having such impure thoughts and for once just behave? "I don't have to die just for you to have everything of mine. You are my wife, all of these belongs to you."  Shi Enxi was pleased with what he said. She turned to him and leaned, giving him a soft kiss on his lips. "I will trust those words, okay?" He chuckled, amused. "I didn't know that my wife is actually a little gold digger." "Who wouldn't love gold?" She refuted back. "I'm even willing to marry an old man if he's this rich! But luckily, you're the one I married. My husband is handsome and rich!" He pouted, "I suddenly feel hurt. You're only after the riches I have, not the love I have for you." She placed her hand on his cheek, "I don't need you to shower me with your love, just shower me with all of this wealth then I am all yours!" "..." This part of his wife was not cute at all! Nope, not cute at all! Shi Enxi closed her eyes and let out a soft yawn. "I am free tomorrow..." She whispered sleepily. "Darling... There's this limited edition bag... that will be coming out tomorrow." Another yawn was heard from her. "... I really want to have one." Soon after, her breathing became even. Lu Mello couldn't believe that she even dared to ask for something before going to sleep! She didn't even say goodnight to him! What kind of wife was she?! ---- Author: BerriApplepi IG: @berriapplepi Discord: https://discord.gg/z56kkGG Donate: paypal.me/berriapplepie Modern Fairytale series: The Devil's Sleeping Beauty (Sleeping Beauty) Ten Years Late: The Bullied Husband (Little Red Riding Hood) The Devil who devoured Snow White (Snow White) Beast Under Her Dress: Princess, Don't Run!
