Shen La, a special forces operative born with the Heavenly Eye, has been able to see ghosts since childhood. During a mission involving a supernatural incident, his abilities were exposed—leading to his recruitment by a hidden Chinese government agency: the Bureau of Paranormal Investigation. This mysterious organization is tasked with investigating and handling all manner of supernatural phenomena. Within the Bureau, Shen La encounters a group of uniquely gifted and eccentric colleagues, including a mysterious white-haired man known only as Invincible, and Sun Fatty, a genius with an exceptionally high IQ. Through a series of increasingly perilous encounters—including the resurrection of the Ancestor Shaman, the haunting Ghost Opera of Qinghe, and a ghost ship that has wandered for centuries—Shen La begins to grow both in power and insight. Yet as the cases deepen, a shadowy force behind the scenes begins to reveal itself. Its ultimate goal appears to be a secret manual said to grant immortality...

It took me time... to figure out that this mobile is an RPG System! I can't believe I can level up in real life like it is a real-life VR Game. But, why does this System brings the Undead in front of us and wants us to finish them? We can't kill them.... right? Only if we complete all the Quests assigned by this Paranormal System, it says it will help us find our parents. I wanna find them but right now I just wanna Level Up! I kept getting Quests to kill the Undead or to save someone from the undead, etc. I was leveling up quite well too. Until this one day... when my elder sister left aboard for her studies and my friend dropped the System from her hands- like seriously?! The mobile fell, its screen shattered and..... the system rebooted. Yeah, now we gotta do everything from the start. We started our first year at the high school... everything was fine since I was not getting any quests to complete till this day: [Find fellow System users in your school.] We all System users gathered. Everyone from different classes, and different... Races. We started getting the same Quests, we started working together but with different goals. . . .

||Book 1 in D'KAT Series|| ● ● ● "So please tell us, sir. What is your greatest weakness?" "Losing my wife", he grinned. The hostess smiled, "Aww, that's beautiful. What will you say is your greatest strength?" "Having my wife". "Okay sir, last question... How would you describe your wife?" His lips grew into a devious grin, uncontrollably holding the hand of his heart's desire. "The best dream no man but me deserves". The entire audience clapped in adoration. Delia smiled, glancing at her husband then back at the interviewer. The hostess then asked, "And sir, bonus question, how would you describe your marriage?" "A condom". Delia, his wife, then chipped in, "A paranormal one, at that". "One that none of us can escape, unless we go boom!" He smiled. • • • The son of a powerful western empire, Dilen Liam, has to prove his innocence against false racial accusations by dating a dark skinned girl; all to save his family's name and businesses.

He’s her assistant. Loyal. Obedient. Untouchable. Victoria Sharp built her tech empire from scratch. She's rich, ruthless, and always in control. No scandals, no distractions, especially not from a certain devastatingly attractive executive assistant with bewitching eyes and a voice that could ruin her in seconds. James Mitchell has worked under Victoria for three years, hiding his desire behind professionalism and perfect ties. He knows the rules. He respects her boundaries. But when she starts breaking her own, James isn’t sure how long he can keep pretending he doesn’t want her. What begins as subtle tension, lingering stares, coffee with hidden meanings, after-hours “accidental” meetings, spirals into something hotter, darker, and far more dangerous. She’s used to power. He’s used to silence. But neither of them is ready for obsession. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If you want these lips, then earn them." James's words hung in the air between them, transforming the atmosphere in Victoria's office from tense confrontation to something entirely unprecedented. Victoria sat frozen in her chair, her lips still parted in silent shock, her mind struggling to process what had just transpired. Earn them. The phrase echoed in her thoughts, foreign and disorienting. "If you want to keep tasting these lips, then you'll have to woo me." The additional statement landed like a second shockwave. Woo him? Victoria Sharp didn't woo anyone. ------------- "Victoria, what are you…" James words died in his throat as he felt the warm, wet heat of her tongue against his exposed chest. Victoria had found the gap in his shirt and was licking his skin with deliberate, erotic slowness that made his entire body go rigid with shock and arousal. The sensation was unlike anything James had ever experienced, raw and intimate and so unexpected that it short-circuited his ability to think coherently. Victoria's tongue was warm and soft against his skin, tracing patterns that sent bolts of electricity straight to his core. This was madness, she knew that. But she was past caring about sanity or propriety or any of the rules that had governed her life up until this moment. All she cared about was the man in her arms and the way he made her feel like she was coming alive for the first time in years. Her tongue found the small mole on under his right eye, and she felt James's entire body shudder at the contact. "I love that mole on you," she whispered against his skin, her voice husky with desire. James's eyes slammed shut at the intimate contact, his body betraying him as a soft groan escaped his lips. The sensation of Victoria's tongue on his face was so unexpected, so boldly sensual, that his pulse hammering against his throat. "I will do as you say, James," she said, her voice husky with desire and determination. "I will woo you." The words sent a jolt of satisfaction through James's system, but it was her next statement that made his breath catch. "However, you should know that I am very territorial." "You just sit down, look effortlessly handsome, and prepare to be wooed," she said, her voice carrying all the authority of a woman who was used to getting exactly what she wanted. "Remember, James," she said, her voice dropping to a whisper that somehow managed to carry more authority than any shout ever could. "You are mine." The declaration hung between them like a brand, marking him as surely as if she'd physically claimed him. Enemies-to-lovers tension CEO x Executive Assistant Office slow-burn with high heat Obsession, betrayal, and emotional redemption One woman who’s never been owned and the man she can’t control If you love dominant heroines breaking their own rules, devoted but strong men, and drama that keeps you breathless, then be ready to be will consumed.

I found myself reincarnated into another world, not by being hit by Truck-kun, but by dying in a plane crash. Usually, when a main character is reincarnated into another world, what do they do? ​Hide their power? Become an Extra? Or whatever? I don’t care; if I’m reincarnated, I’m going to enjoy it. ​'I'm not like other Isekai protagonists, who pretend to be weak, then suddenly reveal their true power. That's disgusting.' ​If you have a strong System, what should you do? Be strong—no, be the strongest. Dominate and defeat all your enemies. If you are strong, no one underestimates you. If you are strong, no one dares to fight you = a peaceful life. ​I sometimes wonder if Isekai protagonists are stupid, that they don't even know that logic. They pretend to hide like rats only to be found by cats. ​I truly dislike it. Therefore, I will become the strongest in this world, even if the gods challenge me. ​

After being found and brought back by her wealthy family, Arabella Donovan has an unexpected awakening and discovers that the world she lives in is a mishmash of popular story tropes. Her eldest brother is the tragic guy in a melodramatic, angsty novel; Her second brother is the cannon fodder in an showbiz power-fantasy novel; Her third brother is the scapegoat who ends up with a criminal record in a doting teen romance; Her fourth sister is the vicious villainess in a 'real vs. fake heiress' story; And even her parents are just antagonistic background characters in some sweet, middle-aged romance.
