Brandon Silver knows there’s more to life than dealing blackjack at the Bellagio Casino. He hopes his lover, Seth Cahill, can help him experience more of the world. Seth does this by showing him how to run an easy scam. They target an older woman, Brandon distracts her, and Seth takes advantage of her distraction by robbing her. It seems like an easy enough plan.<br><br>Except they target Caryn Westbrook. A woman with her own agenda. At the top of her agenda is to teach the two young men a lesson they will never forget.

It’s impossible to get around without being late to stop the bloodshed. That was one of the problems of the five champions of Morvian College, standing high for more than 300 years. Despite housing powerful students, it is infested with evil spirits. Phantrits. In the present year of 708, the rising peak of the next Blood Moon, five students are tasked to bring balance between spirits and Leiaz. Erasing the victim’s traces of existence was easier, since it kept all of them alive, a luxury for the previous champions. A calculating winner whose great powers hold secrets of an origin otherworldly. A lover who wishes for freedom before the inevitable chains of an arrangement pull her back. A second-best son toiling in the shadow of his brother. A leader of the unlawful with a burning hatred towards his colleague. A knight, proud to succeed a legacy, who wants nothing more than to see his sister again. Thus begins the 5 of Diamonds.

The diamonds? Who are the Diamonds? And where do you belong? The White diamonds? Or the Black Diamonds? Okay...a little introduction. The diamonds are a unique set of people in the country discovered to have special powers. Once their powers are discovered, they're taken to the special school - THE DIAMONDS INSTITUTE - where they're being taught to control and make use of their powers. Its a school attended by people from all over the world -as long as they posses special abilities, of course - and it becomes like their new home because they get to live there and survive. Its a school filled with spoilt brats who can do the unthinkable, but Its been signed by the government that anyone discovered with special abilities must be taken to the Diamonds Institute. So, its inevitable. Meet Cali Jenner. A young pretty, but stubborn girl who's always wanted to explore the world and have fun. But what happens when she wakes up one morning and discovers she has special abilities? What happens when she's forced to go to the Diamond's institute even tho she hated it since it'd restrict her life? She finds it annoying coping with her new world because the school's filled with spoilt brats who cared less She's so angry at it and vowed to leave. But what happens when she meets the most handsome boy she's ever met? Meet Miquel Yeah...just Miquel. You don't need to know his surname for now. He's the most powerful in the Diamond's Institute and as a result, he was made president over the rest of the students. He's the most charming, handsome and coolest guy in the institute. Just a stare from him can melt you to liquid and yeah - He's an introvert. He hardly speaks - even during training, his 'special guards' do the talking. He only watches but never speaks. You hardly see him around as he's always in his room and only comes out during training and rare occasions. There in the institute, he's considered a god. He's the most powerful yet, no background. Yeah - he's quiet. But never mess with him because he kills within the blink of an eye. He's calm, yet violent. Just a slight anger, he bleeds from his eyes and nostrils and anyone around him at that moment is likely to die. What happens when stubborn Cali meets the god-like Miquel and picks interest in him? He seemed to be the only one to really interest in her in the school, but unfortunately, he's weird and wouldn't associate with anyone. Many at times, at night, she'd take the risk of climbing up to his window just to watch him sleep. And as she did, she felt it - there was something mysterious about him. The most powerful, handsome, charming, yet cold and quiet. Cali's warned to stay away from him but she turned deaf ears and finally, she fell into his trap... * * Who's ready for a sweet round of romance, suspense and mystery?

☼ ◇ ☽ Born into a dynasty of diamonds, Pearl "Suvi" Eurielle Delos Angeles has everything—except freedom. As the beloved granddaughter and daughter of a powerful jeweler family, her life is measured in reputation, profit, and polished perfection. When she is sent to the province for a summer vacation, she expects boredom. Instead, she meets Lucas Ramirez, whose hands are rough with labor and whose heart is untouched by greed. In the quiet fields far from glittering halls, Pearl experiences a love unshaped by status. With Lucas, she is not a Delos Angeles—she is simply a girl in love. But when her family discovers the relationship, they respond with cruelty masked as protection. Lucas is humiliated, threatened, and ultimately left bleeding after a brutal attack meant to erase him from Pearl's life. While Lucas fights for survival, a poisonous lie is planted—convincing him that Pearl only used him for amusement, that their love was never real and wants him dead. Broken in body and spirit, he disappears without a word. Pearl is dragged back into her gilded cage, believing the man she loves now hates her. Five years later, Lucas returns—not as a worker in the farm but as a powerful and wealthy man forged by pain and rage. His goal is no longer love, but revenge. He infiltrates the Delos Angeles empire and begins his most calculated move. As diamonds glitter and old wounds reopen, Pearl is forced to watch the man she never stopped loving destroy her world piece by piece. But revenge has a cost, and when buried truths rise to the surface, both must face a question more painful than hatred. Is love strong enough to survive lies, blood, and the weight of gold?

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.
