oscar refused to trust orion

She was reborn back to 11 years ago, when everything was fine, her family was still alive and she had not experienced the pain of destruction. Since she had the chance to restart, she decided to seek revenge on those who had hurt her! She would also leverage her knowledge and strength to lead her family to a prosperous life. However, she has a regret: despite being reborn, she still ended up marrying him, a man who was difficult to approach...

Millions of earthlings reincarnated into a magical world to save it from its prophesied doom. However, one reincarnation failed—an anomaly born in error or by design. Thrust into a rotting house in a ghostly body, Adam found himself bound to a wailing baby: the body he should have reincarnated into. Two cruel choices were given to him: suffer as a ghost while searching for an impossible alternative, or murder the boy he would raise to claim the life that was promised. Guided only by a snarky system that warns of his damaged soul, he began his years-long quest to recover his body. But solitude tightens around his heart, and madness slithers at the edges of his mind, ready to engulf him whole. He was far from imagining how dangerous this world full of possibilities could be. Soon, he would question everything he knew—including his own sanity, his memories, and the very hands that blurred this world's history. And if someone was behind it all… was the prophecy itself a lie? This world... So there are others, where Qi rules instead of mana and forgotten legacies of cultivators lie for those who have the skills to grab them. ********************************************** Discord server: https://discord.gg/ubzzKM5wfp Note: The MC is not a supporting character or hidden master.

As a top manager, everyone constantly tries to curry favor with Li Xiwu. And due to her identity as Mrs. Pei, the rich and the powerful would always greet her politely. A celebrity instructor, and the wife of a man from a rich family... Is there anyone who would not envy her? However, only Li Xiwu knows that she is a substitute for Mr. Pei's unrequited love, and none of her titles or privileges have anything to do with her.***Losing yourself after being someone else's substitute is a tedious thing. Having gained that epiphany, Li Xiwu began to ponder how she should claim alimony of astronomical proportions from Mr. Pei. However, while she was obsessing over how to get rich from the divorce, her mother-in-law, who had always disliked her, invited her to take part in a variety show, while promising to make her rich. Li Xiwu's lips curled into a grin. "Fortune favors the brave!”At first, her mother-in-law constantly attempted to embarrass her, and netizens were all moaning about how she was the most pitiful rich daughter-in-law! Later, her mother-in-law was inseparable from Li Xiwu, and would keep bragging about her to everyone she met, leaving the netizens cheering: Leave the face-slapping to Mrs. Pei! Li Xiwu did not expect herself to shoot to fame in the variety show either. However, while she was convinced that she could get a smooth divorce afterward, her mother-in-law called her son immediately as soon as the variety show ended.“Divorce my baby, and I will disown you!”Mr. Pei: ???

(R-18 and dark themes, you have been warned.) Blurb: During my incarceration by my mate, I see a man leaning against the wall of the dungeon with his arms and legs coiled with heavy iron chains. Dressed only in tattered rags of a black robe his ghostly white skin is mostly on display. Tattoos like smoke crawl all the way from his neck to the side of his handsome and deeply chiselled face, but it's the eyes that have me in a trance. Deep red like the freshly spilt blood, such rich shade, and they stare directly at me with such intensity that I forget to breathe. My hand grabs the iron bar, and I steady myself as his curved lips move and he utters only one word to make my world crash and my magic lose control. “Mate!” My world shatters at his words. "You can see me?” He asks next, a voice calmer and yet deeper than Mariana Trench. It whispers all around me, murmuring against my skin as if trying to awaken something sleeping. “Yes, why shouldn't I be able to?” I question, slightly confused. A crease descends on my forehead. "No one else can," he answers with a wounded smile that wrecks my heart. Synopsis: In this post-apocalyptic world, Faes are hunted and killed mercilessly because they are blamed for the apocalypse that befell and destroyed half of the population. At 20, Amaia Zhāng is a Fae and is the last of her kind, or so she thinks. Her family and her whole village were massacred by the Dread Army in the name of keeping peace. She is the sole survivor and keeps her appearance cloaked. But she makes it her mission to train every day and become strong enough to avenge her kind. During a battle with a monster, her mate abandons and rejects her to save his life. Heartbroken, Amaia is left with no choice but to join Orion Academy. It is home to the greatest hunters and enforcers of her continent. It's a world where hunters and enforcers are treated like celebrities. She knows the training will help her fulfil her revenge plans and become a renowned hunter. And maybe along the way she will find another mate. But the twist of fate, deception and seduction from the man who is supposed to refer her to the Orion Academy leaves her with a curse and a tainted reputation. A curse which prevents her mate/mates from recognising her and prevents Amaia from informing them of who she is to them. As it turns out, Amaia is mated to hybrid Alphas of Orion, but none of them can feel the mate bond, and they believe she wants to seduce them. “Have some dignity, Amaia. You abandoned your mate and are now trying your seduction techniques on me. I have a fiancée.” Glares Alnilam, her first mate. “Don't look at me like that, lassie. I am saving myself for my mate.” Winks Alnitak, her second mate. “Stay away from me. You are not my mate,” scolds Mintaka, her third mate. “I will bring a garland constructed from your ex-mate's bones. How dare he hurt you?” Determination flashes in the eyes of Rigel, her fourth mate. Every time they turn her down and choose to be intimate with their chosen females, she feels every ounce of pain and hurt. Amidst the chaos and heartache in a place where enemies hide in plain sight. Can Amaia break this curse and have her mates recognise her as theirs? Does she have four mates or is there another twist hidden? Will she become a successful hunter and keep her identity hidden from the world and at the same time carry out her revenge? Read on to find out.

(Ab 18 und dunkle Themen, du wurdest gewarnt.) Klappentext: Während meiner Gefangenschaft durch meinen Gefährten sehe ich einen Mann, der an der Wand des Kerkers lehnt, seine Arme und Beine mit schweren Eisenketten umwickelt. Nur bekleidet mit zerfetzten Fetzen eines schwarzen Gewandes ist seine geisterhaft weiße Haut größtenteils zu sehen. Tätowierungen wie Rauch ziehen sich von seinem Hals bis zur Seite seines gutaussehenden und markant gemeißelten Gesichts, aber es sind die Augen, die mich in Trance versetzen. Tiefrot wie frisch vergossenes Blut, eine so reiche Schattierung, und sie starren mich mit solcher Intensität direkt an, dass ich vergesse zu atmen. Meine Hand greift nach dem Eisengitter, und ich halte mich fest, als seine geschwungenen Lippen sich bewegen und er nur ein Wort ausspricht, das meine Welt zum Einsturz bringt und meine Magie außer Kontrolle geraten lässt. "Gefährtin!" Meine Welt zerbricht bei seinen Worten. "Du kannst mich sehen?" fragt er als nächstes, mit einer Stimme ruhiger und doch tiefer als der Mariana-Graben. Sie flüstert um mich herum, murmelt gegen meine Haut, als versuche sie, etwas Schlafendes zu wecken. "Ja, warum sollte ich das nicht können?" frage ich, leicht verwirrt. Eine Falte legt sich auf meine Stirn. "Niemand sonst kann es", antwortet er mit einem verletzten Lächeln, das mein Herz zerreißt. Synopsis: In dieser postapokalyptischen Welt werden Feen gnadenlos gejagt und getötet, weil sie für die Apokalypse verantwortlich gemacht werden, die die Hälfte der Bevölkerung vernichtete. Mit 20 Jahren ist Amaia Zhāng eine Fee und die letzte ihrer Art, zumindest glaubt sie das. Ihre Familie und ihr ganzes Dorf wurden von der Schreckensarmee im Namen der Friedenswahrung massakriert. Sie ist die einzige Überlebende und hält ihr Aussehen verborgen. Aber sie macht es zu ihrer Mission, jeden Tag zu trainieren und stark genug zu werden, um ihre Art zu rächen. Während eines Kampfes mit einem Monster verlässt und verstößt ihr Gefährte sie, um sein eigenes Leben zu retten. Mit gebrochenem Herzen bleibt Amaia keine andere Wahl, als der Orion-Akademie beizutreten. Sie ist die Heimat der größten Jäger und Vollstrecker ihres Kontinents. Es ist eine Welt, in der Jäger und Vollstrecker wie Prominente behandelt werden. Sie weiß, dass das Training ihr helfen wird, ihre Rachepläne zu erfüllen und eine angesehene Jägerin zu werden. Und vielleicht findet sie unterwegs einen neuen Gefährten. Aber die Wendung des Schicksals, Täuschung und Verführung durch den Mann, der sie eigentlich an die Orion-Akademie empfehlen soll, hinterlässt ihr einen Fluch und einen befleckten Ruf. Ein Fluch, der verhindert, dass ihr Gefährte/ihre Gefährten sie erkennen und der Amaia daran hindert, ihnen mitzuteilen, wer sie für sie ist. Wie sich herausstellt, ist Amaia mit Hybrid-Alphas von Orion verbunden, aber keiner von ihnen kann die Gefährtenbindung spüren, und sie glauben, sie wolle sie verführen. "Hab etwas Würde, Amaia. Du hast deinen Gefährten verlassen und versuchst jetzt deine Verführungstechniken bei mir. Ich habe eine Verlobte", funkelt Alnilam, ihr erster Gefährte, sie an. "Schau mich nicht so an, Mädchen. Ich spare mich für meinen Gefährten auf", zwinkert Alnitak, ihr zweiter Gefährte. "Bleib weg von mir. Du bist nicht mein Gefährte", tadelt Mintaka, ihr dritter Gefährte. "Ich werde einen Kranz aus den Knochen deines Ex-Gefährten bringen. Wie konnte er es wagen, dich zu verletzen?" Entschlossenheit blitzt in den Augen von Rigel, ihrem vierten Gefährten, auf. Jedes Mal, wenn sie sie abweisen und sich dafür entscheiden, mit ihren auserwählten Frauen intim zu sein, spürt sie jeden Hauch von Schmerz und Verletzung. Inmitten des Chaos und Herzschmerzes an einem Ort, wo Feinde sich offen verstecken. Kann Amaia diesen Fluch brechen und ihre Gefährten dazu bringen, sie als die Ihrige zu erkennen? Hat sie vier Gefährten oder gibt es noch eine weitere verborgene Wendung? Wird sie eine erfolgreiche Jägerin werden und ihre Identität vor der Welt verbergen und gleichzeitig ihre Rache ausführen? Lies weiter, um es herauszufinden.
