Book 3 of the "Alexander the Caracal" Series When Alexander comes face to face with the lynx that roams the estate that he calls home, the caracal finds himself wounded and experiencing things he never could have conceived possible.

Có những cuộc phiêu lưu không bắt đầu từ những cánh rừng rậm, những ngọn núi tuyết hay biển khơi đầy sóng dữ. Chúng bắt đầu ngay giữa đời thường: một con hẻm cũ kỹ, một chuyến xe buýt chiều, một trang sách bị bỏ quên trên ghế đá công viên. Người ta thường nghĩ phiêu lưu là chạy đến tận cùng thế giới, nhưng đôi khi, nó chỉ là dám bước ra khỏi nhịp sống quen thuộc, dám lắng nghe tiếng gọi mơ hồ trong lòng, dám đặt câu hỏi với cả những điều tưởng chừng đã quá rõ ràng. Đây là cuộc hành trình của một nhóm người bình thường – nhưng không ai thật sự bình thường. Mỗi người đều mang theo một “chiếc la bàn” riêng: có kẻ đi tìm câu trả lời cho những nỗi đau đã qua, có người chỉ muốn nhìn thấy bầu trời mới, có kẻ tò mò với bí mật mà thế giới giấu kín. Và rồi, bằng một cách nào đó, những con đường đơn lẻ giao nhau, để thành một chuyến đi chung. Trong chuyến phiêu lưu này, không có đúng – sai tuyệt đối. Cũng không có một đích đến được định sẵn. Mỗi bước chân chỉ mở ra thêm những khung cửa mới: có lúc là ánh sáng, có khi là bóng tối, có khi lại là một tấm gương khiến ta phải đối diện với chính mình. Nếu bạn mong đợi một câu chuyện về kho báu hay vinh quang, có lẽ nơi này không dành cho bạn. Nhưng nếu bạn muốn cùng lạc bước, cùng bỡ ngỡ, cùng thở dài và mỉm cười trước những điều tưởng chừng rất nhỏ bé – thì hãy bước vào. Cuộc phiêu lưu này không hứa hẹn sẽ làm bạn choáng ngợp, nhưng có thể sẽ để lại trong tim bạn một vết xước dịu dàng. Một dấu hiệu rằng bạn đã từng đi, từng tìm, và từng lắng nghe.

Before marrying Silas, Joyce had only met him three times. A marriage of convenience, a secret agreement, for a term of three years. She's fresh off a heartbreak — the man she chased for years told her they "weren't a good match." Silas has his own baggage: rumor says he's still hung up on a white moonlight who happens to look just like Joyce. So that's all she is. A substitute. ** In the second year of their marriage, on Joyce's birthday, she drank too much and, in front of everyone, tugged on his tie, pinning him underneath her: "You look... a lot like my husband." The Thorne family's second master, known for being rational and unfeeling, was flustered by her that night. He leaned in close to her ear and coaxed in a low voice, "Be good." The next day Joyce woke up to find her lips were swollen. This… Who did this! When she went to question him, she discovered Silas's lip was bitten. He stared at her and said slowly, "You crossed the line first." ** The scandal leaked. At a party, her ex-boyfriend stepped in: "She's mine. Who dares talk?" Then Silas walked in. The room went silent. "Yours? Since when?" "Joyce, tell me. Whose are you?" So much for the secret marriage. So much for being a substitute. This was supposed to be fake… wasn't it?

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.

Feng Qing, a top surgeon from the 21st century, wakes up in a body no one wants — married off to Rong Ling, the most powerful Regent in Dayan, a man who makes it abundantly clear: "Do you think you're worthy of marrying this king? Foolish." While he keeps his distance, she keeps herself busy, saving lives with medical knowledge centuries ahead of its time, collecting debts from those who wronged the original body's owner, and planning her exit strategy. Later, he became the New Emperor— "Qing Qing, from now on, you are my Empress." "Not interested."

Without money, how could she enjoy anything? So, who's slandering her online? I'll find you and dig up all your dirty secrets. Who wants to terminate her contract? Terminate it immediately. After termination, she'll go on to endorse international luxury brands instead. Terminating the script contract? Good, that's great! If the contract isn't terminated, how can she film the blockbuster drama of the year and win awards with it? Modern life is so wonderful, eating and drinking every day. There's just one tiny problem. Why are there suddenly two babies growing in her belly? And who is this ridiculously handsome man who appeared out of nowhere, claiming to be their father?

Three years of devotion. Three years of loving Julian with everything she had. Only to be framed for a divorce and personally sent to prison by him. "I didn't kill her," Evelyn begged. "I didn't kill the woman you love." "I don't believe you." Facing a death sentence with no one to turn to, Evelyn made the most desperate choice of her life — she threw herself at the one person Julian would never forgive. His younger brother. "Get me pregnant. Please. It's the only way I survive." Because pregnant women are not subject to the death penalty. By the time the truth surfaced and Julian realized the woman he destroyed was innocent, it was already too late. He dropped to his knees. "Eve, I was wrong. Give me one more chance." A hand caught his wrist before he could touch her. "She's already my wife, brother."
