In a apartment building on the 3rd floor, when you look through the window you can see a faint silhouette of a man sitting beside a comfortable looking bed. There was no source of light, except an open phone illuminating his beautiful face and fluffy hair sticking out of his black hoodie.

*scroll*

He kept scrolling through his phone while reading chat messages for a class reunion this week, you can barely see what is written for he was scrolling too fast. He stopped scrolling through Lιne and he exited the app to only go to another app, upon clicking it you can see hundreds of covers of books, novels, and stories.

He clicked his notification box and saw that his favorite author _Hideki-Chan_ had updated >Forbidden Love<, well the last update to be exact. < p>

The man quickly clicked to read the last update of his favorite novel that he has been reading for 3 years now. Only to be left shocked for the context of the update he will be reading.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

On the 13th of November. The ex-empress also known as the infamous rebellion leader that lead the rebels to attack the Arnoult empire and caused a great deal of damage to half of the whole empire, was scheduled to be beheaded for all his crimes.

May it be Arson, High treason, attempt of murder of a member of the imperial family as well as embezzlement of the wherewithal for the inhabitants of the empire that was to be used to help the citizens that was affected by the war.

Below the heart of the Palace where the palace prison was located there was a big, black, metal door separating the outside world from the Dark, wicked, ill omened insides of the dungeon. The revolting stench of decaying bodies of past prisoners greets you with a sinister smile, handles made of pure silver iron rusting through time, complex locks that are hard to force open without it's keys.

Once you've gone inside you'll see a dark fill with moss underground prison, where the Ex-empress who was situated inside a dingy prison.

It wasn't only just the Ex-empress who was in the location but a few guards and the Adonis like Emperor of the Arnoult Empire.

The Ex-empress was looking straight at the emperor as he slowly opened his mouth and said;

"What have I done wrong to you? All I did was love you wholeheartedly, almost exhausting myself to death with lessons that I had to learn just so I can stand beside you always, had I not meant anything to you at all...?"

"...I've never asked you to do any of that yet you still did, you are to blame for your actions wasting all your energy and effort for naught"

"All I did just to be by your side! I never complained with how you were always treating me!"

The emperor was surprised by the sudden outburst of the Ex-empress

"I never asked for your love, I stood by waiting for you to love me willingly with all your heart! I stood by you and defended you when nobles were criticizing and condemning you!"

The emperor stood by giving an uncomfortable sound swallowing back his retorts.

"Tell me, what did I do wrong for you to treat me like this? Like some piece of garbage that you threw in the trash left to rot after being useful to you!"

The emperor went quiet, he dared not look at the previous empress that previously stood with grace and elegance. The person at the very top of society was now locked inside a rusty and dirty prison yet he was still radiating with the same light as he did back then but it was coupled with lifeless eyes that had seen the death of many including loved ones....

"... I know you don't love me much less like me, you abhor me"

"I do not abhor you"

"Your actions seem to say otherwise? I had at least thought that you would treat me with respect when we were married but no, not even an ounce of respect had I seen from you from all the time we've spent together"

The emperor was still quiet, clearly listening but not answering nor acknowledging anything.

The ex empress gave the emperor one last look of despondency as he had a moment of epiphany.

"I hope you live a happy life, I hope you treat them better than you treated me."

"Sometimes it takes a break or even an execution to shake us awake and help us see that there is so much more to see than what I had settled for"

Emperor Leopold states mockingly as he laughs gloriously at his own words.

"Still as sharp with words as ever." The ex-empress says with an unamused expression towards the emperor.

"Oh and before I forget, just a quick reminder you should act according to your position. This will be my last advice towards you, your majesty" He says with not a single smile on his beautiful but pitiful face.

"Why do you say so?" As the emperor gives an uncomfortable look towards him.

"Hah, you're the emperor of this empire yet you do not know of the rumors surrounding yourself?" He says mockingly.

"The nobles are running amok behind you yet you don't realize. There's also a rumor going around that you're just a wooden toy that moves when two beautiful faes move a string"

"What?!"

"With how things are going around right now, I wouldn't be surprised if your two 'little faes' won't survive the blow on their reputation and pride"

Says ex-empress Cameron with a amused smirk on his face only to be mercilessly cut off by the sc*m emperor.

"Nonsense! To dare mock me this way! And shall I remind you Elijah and Elias would survive and they have me to protect them! They fit perfectly with the nobility just fine"

"Oh is that so? I heard the nobles don't think highly of the nouveau riche who sleep with nobles just for a title and an illegitimate son born out of a wh*re-"

"Who do you think you're calling a sl*t! And as I have told you he will fit in perfectly with other nobles as if he were born as one from the beginning, they don't dare to challenge my authority! "

(Bro, stop cutting him off with his sentences he's about to die yet you dare interrupt his words and you don't deserve to talk to him you jerk ass 💀)

"Alright... Just tell him I told him to be cautious, at this rate you might die before me because of anger"

"YOU-!"

The emperor's sentence was cut off by the bell, signaling the execution of the empress.

(Good job bell! The MVP title goes to the bell! (≧▽≦)

"Well, time to cut this conversation short. I bid your highness goodbye and also... Be wary of your decisions, mistakes will take a toll on you"

The emperor didn't have time to ask him about the meaning of the last sentence, much less think about it since the empress was quickly taken away by the guards heading to the chopping block.

"k*ll him!"

"Traitor!"

"Liar!"

"You crooked cross!"

"Treacherous-!"

Yelled out by the citizens around the plaza, where the current empress knelt ready to be beheaded.

He knelt there with a remorseful appearance for he had recalled the innocent lives he cannot bring back. A desolate expression lay on his face for he was betrayed by the one he loved, disappointed because of his naive love for the emperor caused the life of his loved ones...

He raised his head and stared at the balcony where the emperor and his male consorts were watching him suffer all the lashing and curses. He lowers his head, for he will surely cry and let them see his weak state the he had promised to never reveal, he knelt there regretting his choices, regretting his love, regretting the first time he ever met the emperor.

Regretting Everything.....

When it was time for him to be beheaded, he took one last look at the balcony and giving them his nastiest and coldest glare he could to show his hatred. Mouthing out "I.Hate.You.All"

with a small sinister almost maddening smile.

Whoosh-!

The executioner cuts the rope, and;

Swish-!

With one felt swoop the blade in the guillotine fell with a spine-chilling glint as the blade falls and separates the head from the body. The head of the ex-empress fell to the ground causing an almost imperceptible plop.

Days passed after the death of the previous empress, everything quickly became normal like the empress wasn't beheaded right in front of them. Especially in the imperial palace, the next day after the day of the empress beheading, they threw a small banquet to celebrate.

A few years had passed and everyone lived prosperously forgetting about the empress, and his death, like he had not even existed, buried within history.

Emperor Leopold and Earl Elias had a child and got married to the emperor, while Elijah and the Emperor also had twins together, the emperor rejoiced and gave him the title of Prince Consort second only to the empress. Living happily ever after with their children.

- The end -

....

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

(A/N: yes I rushed the ending here bcs this is not my story just a story in a story bcs I'm writing a story for a story but it won't actually be my story unlesssss )

Aki: .....

Whoosh-!

Bam-!

Crack-!

A phone went flying and hit the wall, breaking it's screen.

"F*ck! What kind of ending is that? You think I'll just accept that kind of shitty ending? Dream on!"

He shouts.

'I regret reading this sh*tty ending novel. Despicable author for writing a sht story! I'll never listen to Haru ever again, The empress only loved the emperor unconditionally! He loved him until the end and got framed by that fly sh*t yet he's called the villain?!'

The protagonist Elijah is too meek isn't he a man he should man up and fight with the jerk emperor!

A new male consort? The cunning and deceitful Elias of the Duchy of Adelaide? What the actual f*ck?!

How much stamina does this guy have? Don't you have enough?! Curse you, you handsome rat emperor!

Sh*t!

I almost felt bad for that white flower protagonist!

F*ck! Just because of that scum emperor had another mistress, he just had to frame the empress that did nothing to him just for the throne?!

Hah, I wouldn't be surprised if the protagonist gets framed also!

Also that handsome rat emperor! If your going to cheat why so hot you b*tch! I officially erase hot blond men from my top 10 types of male leads! (ノ｀Д')ノ彡┻━┻ |'

Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!

(A/N: putang*na mo saket mo magsalita Ako gumawa sayu, ayusin mo ugali mo sna wla kang jowa buong buhay mo (T-T)

'They were supposed to face upcoming annihilation why the f*ck did they survive that?! Hah... Ofcourse the answer to that is easy to answer, if it isn't the Protagonist Halo and Plot armor then what else could it be?!

A magical queen of fairies that pops out of nowhere that the protagonist suddenly knows? F*ck this sh*t, I'm done with this! Screw them!|•

*Ring*

'Huh? What he heck is it? Don't they know I'm very angry right now?'

Aki picks up the phone from the ground and looked for the name of the caller.

'Oh it's just Haru and Ren'

[Hey Aki! Did you see the ending of the novel? Please tell me you didn't.] - Haru

"Of course I saw it dumbass, I even saw the shitty ending. Too cliche, and why the f*ck would they decapitate the empress's head? Couldn't they just take away his title? He's from a prestigious household that's so not logical!" - Aki

{Wow, chill out Aki hahah} - Ren

"Yeah, yeah. You can clearly see that the author didn't study first before making this sh*tty novel. I'm never trusting you again if you're ever going to recommend a new novel. Now if your done I'll go hang up" - Aki

[Wait, wait, wait-! Just wait a second! Is this how you treat your bestfriends? How horrible! Ren, teach him how to treat his friends better!] - Haru

{Whatever do you mean, he's already treating you well by even answering your call dumbass. If I was him I would of blocked you.} - Ren

[Wow, heartless! Both of you are heartless! Why are you guys always targeting me?! I didn't do anything to the both of you!] - Haru

"Whatever. Anyways, how are you doing now Ren?" - Aki

[Oh yeah, how have you been doing in that new school Ren?] - Haru

{Oh y'know the usual, I'm doing quite well here} - Ren

And with that the three best friends chat a bit more until late at night.

"Guys, it's getting late and I'm feeling *Yawn* kinda drowsy. I'll hang up first"

{Night Aki, Haru. Talk to you guys tomorrow, Bye} - Ren

[Good night guys, sleep tight. Don't let the bed bugs bite!] - Haru

"Geez we're not children anymore, good night" - Aki

{Oh shut it Haru, what do you think we are? 3 year olds? Sheesh rest well} - Ren

[Ahaha, fine I won't] - Haru

After ending the call, Aki went to the closet to get his sleeping attire/ pajamas then went to the bathroom.

After showering

Aki sat on the bed and looked once more on his phone, thinking to himself.

'I feel so bad for the male empress he fell in love with a handsome playboy. if I were him I would slap the Emperor to the moon and leave his ass alone to die!'

~°• Wish granted •°~

" huh what? Who's there! Show yourself! "

~°• Don't worry host we'll see each other soon... •°~

OWNED BY HIM

Angelo Verde is a spy who investigates the Mafia's underground business. In the middle of an undercover operation, some unavoidable events leave him no choice but to serve Marvel Yerevan, the Mafia crime boss of one formidable Family. The taste of horrible and peculiar experiences in the underworld does not stop him from stepping deeper into the Mafia's territory, all to gain Marvel's trust. Ready to submit, even become a plaything, he will act subservient while secretly taking advantage of his position for the investigation to complete the tasks he is given. But, can he win the mission when he has never been victorious over a personal battle with the boss? EXCERPT I: "Sir, I think you need to change your clothes, or else you will catch a cold." I suggested Marvel, using his half-wet suit of rain as an excuse to get to know him better. The man in front of me was so tall and well-built, his physique exposed both strength and beauty. It wasn't out of curiosity that I patted his shoulder to sweep the wet dots away, but I wanted to create a connection with him. "If you don't mind, let me help you," I smiled. "It's my responsibility to take care of your health and serve you, so let's go to your room and change-" The coldness of fingers touching my cheek startled me, freezing up the rest of my words. Before I could develop a reaction, the artistic form of a man had turned blurry above my dilated eyes when Marvel reduced our distance. Seizing up the air I meant to breathe in, his lips contrived a way to communicate with mine without the need for words. I always asked myself, what should I do to get closer to Marvel, to step into his territory, to make him trust me? I think I know now. EXCERPT II: "It isn't that hard," Marvel convinced me, sure of it. His knuckles slithered above my cheek. "All you have to do is put it inside your mouth and just let it slide above your tongue." His words were followed by a gesture of his thumb teasing my lips until I felt it in between my teeth. Demanding access, it started to push in deeper, stroking my tongue without any sign of reluctance. When his eyes slightly narrowed to hold a smile, the steel blue marbles glimmered, and I couldn't tear my gaze away from this handsome gent in front of me. "You can do it, right?" At first, I wanted to pretend I didn't understand what Marvel was talking about, but my attempt to be indifferent might not work against someone with a character like his, knowing how much power he had, and I realized what his true intention was. I forced my mouth to open, only later did I know that those simple words would change my fate completely. "Yes, Sir."

My Dear Duke(BL)

On his 20th birthday, Asher's mother confessed something he never expected. After the truth was revealed, she died giving her last blessing to him. That's when Asher found himself all alone, confused about his own identity and worrying about his future. What did she say? -He was someone special? -Someone people would come after? She said he was coming from a very rare but also a very special race called omega where men could get pregnant. Was it real? At first, Asher strictly refused to accept his mother's confession. But in the end, he had to believe it. Because it was the bitter truth. If he was really coming from such a rare race, and had such a special body, did he have to live all his life hiding so he wouldn't get caught and become someone's plaything? Was that the only way to avoid getting the bad ending his father got? Why was he even born as someone like this?! He just wanted a peaceful life. So, it wouldn't be as dangerous as his mother said if he just forgot he was special and lived like a normal person, right? People would not notice. Alas, it's been a long time since people last saw an omega and they must be believing no omega exists now. At least that's what he thought... He thought people might have forgotten about his existence and he would not have to face any problems in the future. Whether he was special or not, he still became a target. When he was kidnapped and auctioned as a slave, he regretted ignoring his mother's last advice. "Don't trust anyone easily. Your safety is in your hands and protecting yourself is your duty." He could only blame himself and expect for the worst if his special identity was to get revealed and meet the same end as his father did. However, his fate gave him a second chance along with a huge surprise which changed his life for the better. Hopefully, Asher was saved by the so-called 'bloodthirsty monster' duke and brought to his mansion to babysit his spoiled 10-year-old little sister who threw tantrums declaring she wants Asher to pat her head and comfort her. Just to babysit this adorable, little girl. He was safe. His secret was also secured within himself. Thanks to that chaotic sister and brother, Asher's life slowly took new turns and continued with almost no obstacles...till some point. The surprise? The duke happened to have some kind of a 'strange' illness that had no cure. Not long after when Asher discovered it, he ended up becoming the perfect cure for his illness. But how? -Remember? He was 'special'! Where would his specialty as an omega lead his life to? What kind of mysteries would he have to encounter with this duke wishing comfort from him? Will the duke's 'strange' illness ever get healed? How would their story flow to that perfect happy ending with the twist of love landing in the middle of their 'just a deal'? ________________ Note: This story continues in a historical timeline. Similar to omegaverse, but not the same omegaverse universe. Magic, revenge, dukes, royal families, curses, spells, heats, ruts... (The book cover is from Pinterest. Respect to the artist.)
