stormy sensei

She never should have been at that gala. Emily Chen was just trying to get through the night in a borrowed dress, blending into a crowd that would never truly accept her. But one careless step, one glass of champagne, and she collides with Alexander Drake—the city’s most feared billionaire, and the man her family has spent years blaming for their ruin. She expects fury. What she gets is interest. Cold, unsettling, and far too intense. Instead of banishing her, Drake makes her an offer: a temporary position inside his empire. A job that looks like opportunity, but feels like a trap. For Emily, it’s a chance to dig for answers about her father’s downfall. For Alexander, it’s a chance to draw her deeper into his orbit. The deeper she goes, the more dangerous it becomes. Rival corporations circle like sharks, whispers of betrayal grow louder, and Drake’s obsession starts to feel like both a shield and a prison. Emily can’t tell if he’s the enemy she should fear… or the only man capable of protecting her from what’s coming. In a world where loyalty can be bought and secrets are worth more than gold, Emily will have to risk everything. The truth could destroy them both. But without it, she may never escape.

(Chapter 39-current) chapters length are 1500-3000 words, may vary 4000-5000 words depending whether it's a very important chapter, or a major impact to the story. Chapter 1-38 escalates 300, 500, 1000, 2000 words, Those chapters are what I consider literally my old era of writing, I don't intend to change them as it showed progress of my old work, but I might do plan to rework them if I cross post my work after all, I'm not in a contract. Real synopsis, (was reworked months ago) Kaoru Kagami! known to his fans as the mysterious Erebus Kyrielight, is one of the manga world's rising stars, crafting epic tales of heroism and despair under the veil of anonymity. But behind his pen name lies a chuunibyo artist who spends more time summoning his "Abyssal Flame Technique!!" than meeting deadlines... Aya Takahashi, a cold and emotionless manga editor tasked with refining Kaoru's work. Her sharp critiques and no-nonsense attitude clashes with Kaoru's overly dramatic and eccentric personality. Yet beneath her icy exterior lies a secret soft spot for the stories she helps cultivate. As the duo navigate the chaotic world of manga creation complete with tight deadlines, fan expectations, and Kaoru's constant anime-inspired antics they begin to realize that the most compelling stories aren't always found in panels and ink. Sometimes, they're written in the moments shared between an artist and the person who believes in their vision, even when it's hard to say out loud. Expected while reading: Random Bold/italics in old chapters, and horrible writing/mistakes. This book is 2 years old. If you're expecting a harem, a love triangle or netorare... Don't. Read. This. Book. this book may be mainly Comedy, a sprinkle of Romance you can say, but also mainly references to shows, animes etc. This is heavily inspired by anime and light novels yes, I know you’ve seen it before, orrr maybe not... And no, it isn’t a typical romance. Bummer, right? At this point every romance novel isn't "Typical." Readers may think it's original, to me it's typical normal romances, no offense to any Authors here reading. I also consider my novel "normal" as well. Another note: "Writing is a hobby of mine, and only be a hobby. I don't do contracts, I rarely don't reply to 'asking contacts' comments whom I consider 'Bots.' (No offense) I don't intend to change any of my books covers for now. And I won't give any contacts of any sorts for Privacy." And for the record, I don't usually write inside webnovel, all my ideas are inside a notepad on my Phone and Laptop. The Books I've made are merely passion projects, or because I start having ideas of anything to be fair. It's annoying. Bye. Apologies if it isn't "realistic." Holy I'm tired. Spoilers: Some volumes will have some Drama, Depressed characters and Tragedies: not literally a tragedy. Stop reading if you don't want any drama & emotional arcs, also don't read if it's slow paced, which I don't know myself whether my chapters are fast paced or slow paced. — Author: Ultima Morora.

Bailey played the perfect homemaker on social media. Known as Lori Laker, The Happy Homemaker, she purported that a housewife was no different from any small business owner. As such, the business of creating a blissful home life should be based on a solid business plan, solid professional alliances, and dynamite management skills. When she draws the attention of Chase Meadows, she is at a loss how to shake the determined CEO of the MGM Conglomerate without revealing secrets that could ruin her reputation. But there is absolutely no way she would ever tie herself to a man known as a demon in the business world with a world-renown reputation as emotionally unstable. He could be ice cold in business negotiations one minute and spewing dragon fire at an inept employee the next. Chase Meadows celebrated his thirty-fifth birthday alone with a bottle of Macallan’s whiskey and a rare steak. Life was good. He had exceeded his expectations and checked off every goal he had set for himself to reach before the age of forty—except for one. He always planned to marry and start a family by now. He wanted someone besides a housekeeper to come home to at night. He wanted a wife and two kids. Maybe a dog. He had tried to have a serious relationship before, but women annoyed him. More specifically, their expectations annoyed him. He wanted someone willing to take on the role of stay-at-home wife and mother without making spending his money a life’s goal. He wanted someone who put his happiness and needs first, someone who appreciated how hard he was willing to work for his family and rewarded him accordingly. He wanted someone to manage his household as efficiently as he managed his company. She should be healthy and bright and full of ideas but astute enough to know when to speak and when to accept his authority without question. When his personal assistant introduced him to the Happy Homemaker’s live stream, he was intrigued. When Chase ran into the same woman at a charity event and saw how succinctly she put a drunken date in his place, he knew she had the backbone to be his partner. The question was how to convince her.
