Synopsis

Former master assassin, Code X, wakes up as a 74 year old woman dressed in ancient clothing. Instead of a toned body and youthful features, she now finds herself with the body of a grandma, complete with a walking stick, white hair, and bad eyes! How did she end up with this situation? Simple — this was karma for all the blood on her hands. To atone for her past sins, she now has to save lives. The more lives she saves, the younger she becomes! But this is not as simple as it looks, not when she finds herself reincarnated in a warring kingdom plagued by death and crime. So when she saves the life of a young boy, she does not expect his next words: “Thank you, beautiful elder sister.” When she touches him, she momentarily regains her youth? But wait, this poor-looking boy is the Crown Prince? And she is now his nanny? What will she have to do to escape this weird situation? _____ “You really want to take me for Empress?” She tried to pry his hands off her back, but her strength was no match for the young emperor. In response, he only tightened his embrace, dipping his head and burying his face into her shoulders almost possessively. “You know what they will all say. You know what they are already saying —“ He sealed her lips with a fiery kiss. Pulling away, he looked her straight in the eye. “Let’s see if they could talk without a tongue.” He smiled. “Or without a life.” For the first time in years, she dared to look at him carefully. He no longer was the child clinging onto her lap during a storm nor the little boy begging for a bedtime story. Now, he towered above her, his soft features from before sharpened by time. Sensing how close he remained to her, uncontrollably, her heart skipped a beat. “Be my Empress.” _____ NO PEDOPHILIA (this is a slow burn and romance only appears later in the story)!!!!! This story is about dual salvation, so there will be NO RAPE and NO ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP!!!!! _____ Cover Art: Cover designed by the super super talented Bloom759!!!

Chapter 1Excerpt [Spoiler Warnings]

"The emperor is too young to know what's good for him," the court official spat, waving the cup of alcohol in the air. "She's what? Eighteen years his elder? Taking that old hag as empress…"

His voice wavered, and his eyes grew wide as he saw the couple standing by the door. After a moment of surprise and perhaps horror, he dropped to all fours, the porcelain cup shattering crisply against the hard stone floor as he pressed his forehead to the ground.

All the blood rushed to his head, the rush of fear temporarily clearing out the toxic effects of alcohol.

"Emperor…"

Hearing no response, he dared not to look up, in fear that he would lose his life. In that moment, he cursed himself a million times at why he could not hold his tongue. That woman was the emperor's nanny, the emperor's confidant, and the emperor's most beloved. Why had he thought it would be a good idea to speak out against her? It hit him at that moment.

Formally kowtowing once more, he spoke out clearly, "Your Humble Servant greets the Emperor and the future Empress."

"You may rise."

Hearing the young Emperor's response, the official let out a huge sigh of relief, one that he didn't even know he had been holding.

Looking up, he saw the woman. Although she was eighteen years older than the newly enthroned emperor, the toll of time had been merciful to her. He thought back to the rumors of how this woman was at least centuries old and was a witch who drained the livelihoods of men to grow ever younger. More than ever before, the official had believed those tall tales. There was no way this woman was actually thirty six years old. There simply was no way.

Despite her porcelain skin and cherry-tinted lips, there was something in her eyes that outlived her age. A sadness perhaps. Or pity. Nonetheless, those fierce eyes bore deep into the official's soul, piercing him from inside out.

The young emperor put his arm around the woman's shoulder, beaming as he whispered something unintelligible to her. As she giggled, never once did the emperor's eyes leave her. And never once did her searing eyes leave him.

The official knew for sure now. No matter how hard his peers may protest and object… No matter how the rest of the world may view this marriage… No matter how many beauties they may gift the young emperor…

This woman would become the Empress of the Hui Empire.

Hi there! Thanks for joining me here! Enjoying the excerpt? Well, read on to see how the old palace nanny takes over the entire palace and becomes empress!

As a full disclaimer, my books tend to be a bit more slow burn and more focused on story/character development over time. Sooo....that being said, if you're expecting immediate action and romance, this might not be the best place for you.

My willingness to write is directly proportional to your support, so please support me in the WPC and give this story a chance!

Bambi and the Duke

Disowned for being a human, Vivian was taken in as a maid at the age of seven by the Carmichael household. Serving one of the most respected and elite pureblood families in Bonelake, there were rules. Rules that must be followed by all servants and maids. Like everyone else, Vivian was repeatedly reminded not to disobey the rules. But before she could learn to blend into the background like the other servants, the Duke's young son calls to her, “Bambi.” And all hell breaks loose. ----- "What? Never seen a bruise before?" Leonard scoffed at the girl. "Does it hurt?" Vivian asked, gently kneeling beside him and examining the several bruises covering his face. "Not that much." Remembering what her mother used to do when she got a bruise, Vivian brought her sleeve to her mouth and blew warm air on it before placing it on the boy's cheek, taking him by surprise. Leonard swatted her hand away, a hint of pink appearing on his cheeks embarrassed, "W-what are you doing?" "Mama told me this will make the pain go away," the girl held her hand close to her chest as she shared her past memory. "I’m not a child!” Leonard huffed at her. “I don’t think you’re a child,” she stared at him with a crystal-clear gaze. Taken aback, Leonard locked eyes with her for two seconds before shaking his head. “Don’t worry about it. They’ll heal in a day or two anyways," he reassured her before getting up and taking a seat at the table where his books were placed. "Odd girl," he muttered to himself as he pulled the top book from the stack and lost himself in it.

Hellbound Heart

[WARNING: MATURE CONTENT] - Izabelle had underestimated the fire she thought she was going to play with tonight. But how could she ever have foreseen that the man she had happened to come across with does not play with just a small fire, but a whole inferno? ___ Excerpt: "You going through this marriage with me might as well be like you digging your own grave. Because the moment you start to want more from me, I will divorce you. And the moment you break your promise and try to fight me… I will ruin you and break you apart completely. Mercilessly. You will regret ever meeting this devil tonight." His threat was given in the same soft but cold voice. But Elle did not even flinch. Her gaze never faltered either. This man was ruthless, and she knew that clearly. His eyes that moment promised nightmares and darkness without any promise of respite. But no matter what he says now, it would still not change her decision. She truly had no other choice. "I understand now…" she said quietly, steeling herself. "Since you don't trust that I will keep my word, how about we do this? You prepare the divorce documents beforehand now and I'll sign it. That way, once you decide to divorce me in the future, the papers would already have been signed and there would be no way I can trouble you about it. You would just need to send it to the lawyers and have it notarized." A heavy silence reigned before his quiet disbelieving laugh broke the silence. "I'm at a loss for words, Princess Izabelle." He looked wickedly amused. But then he started nodding in approval. "Fine, princess. I will marry you." ___ Instagram account: kazzenlx.x facebook page: author_kazzenlx Discord server: https://discord.gg/UGTA3A4 Cover is mine so don't use it.

Defy The Alpha(s)

Two centuries after the Great War, peace between humans and werewolves was finally achieved, or so everyone believes. Werewolves reign like gods, and humans remain blissfully unaware of their true place in the new world order. To maintain this fragile balance, each year, a handful of "lucky" humans are selected from various districts to attend Lunaris Academy, a prestigious institution that promises glory, status, and a chance to mingle with the elite. Those chosen are hailed as the lucky few, destined to marry powerful alphas and rise as luna. This year, Violet Purple is among the chosen, much to everyone's surprise. For an orphaned girl adopted by a disgraced prostitute, this is a golden ticket to a better life or so she's told. But Lunaris Academy isn’t the paradise it’s painted to be. Everything Violet and her fellow humans have been taught is a lie. Humans are far from equal; they're pawns in a much larger game. The academy is nothing but a gilded cage, and the students are lambs led to slaughter, playthings for the alphas to toy with in their ruthless games. To make matters worse, Violet catches the attention of the most dangerous players in this game, the Terror Four: the Alpha of the North, Alpha of the South, Alpha of the East, and Alpha of the West. Each one is more dangerous, more twisted, and more powerful than the last. But even among themselves, the alphas are divided, each with their own deadly ambitions. Yet, they all have their eyes on her. They expect Violet to play along, to fall in line like the others who worship at their feet, to break under their games. But Violet isn’t like the others. She refuses to bow. She’ll defy them all. *********** With a grin that made her uneasy, he handed the application to her. “Approve this one.” Principal Jameson’s curiosity got the better of her as she took the paper from him, her eyes scanning the text. Almost immediately, her breath caught in her throat, her eyes widening in disbelief. “What the...?” “It’s perfect, isn’t it?” Asher’s voice was almost gleeful. Fucking psychopath! Jameson could hardly believe what she was reading. “Mr. Nightshade, with all due respect, this applicant….this girl just admitted to—” She couldn’t even finish the sentence, still horrified at the explicit nature of the application. Taking a deep breath, she continued, “I’m sorry, but I cannot approve this.” “She’s issued me a challenge,” Archer said, a dark gleam in his eyes. “What?” “‘Wait till you see me in bed,’” he repeated the bold line from the application, his grin widening. “And I can’t wait to find out.” “Mr. Nightshade—” He stood up, cutting off her protest as he fixed her with an intense stare. “Approve the application. I won’t ask again.” Without waiting for her response, Asher strode out of the office, confident she would follow his orders. He always got what he wanted. Archer Nightshade walked down the hall, a spring in his step. For the first time in a long while, he felt alive, his blood pulsing with excitement. The other Cardinal Alphas had no idea what he was up to, but it would soon hit them. He’d just set the game in motion. And the target was Violet Purple. It was game on. Note : This is not your average werewolf story. Eveything you think you know about werewolves would be challenged in this book. And yes, it is reverse harem. Do give the book a try.

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to check this out! ^-^ (stay until the end for a twist!) Writing Quality: I try to keep grammar mistakes at a minimum, but if you see something that doesn't really make sense, please point it out! Stability of Updates: I'm going to be completely honest, but my will to write is completely proportional to the support I get ;-; Your comment and votes could really really make my day! Story Development: More of a slow burn story, so don't expect romance until later on in the story. After all, I'm really not trying to support pedophilia here, and our ML is sort of only 7 when he appears in the story (or is he only 7 hmmm...) That being said, a large part of the beginning will be focusing on Code X's redemption as she tries to stay afloat and alive in the palace. Character Design: What can I say, everyone here has multiple faces (quite literally too) and insecurities. No one is going to be perfect, and the characters are not designed for the sole purpose of romance. World Background: She travels in time to war struck kingdom, teetering on the verge of collapse. Most of the story will be set in the palace, so prepare for a lot of scheming but also surprising friendships! Tldr: See how a "74 year old" nanny take over the palace and become empress, becoming younger with each person she saves! Also, on a completely off note, if you have read this far (or if you scrolled this far for the surprise), Happy April Fools! Jkjk... If you were to become incarnated, and you were able to choose your own age, what would it be?

This is such an interesting transmigration concept! I don't see a lot of age gap romances, and while it hasn't gotten there yet, I think that makes this story stand out from the synopsis! (Pardon as there aren't yet a lot of chapters, but...) Here are my notes: ~As far as the writing quality goes, this delivers! The mistakes are very few and far between, and they don't affect the comprehension of the story at all. The majority of the ones I saw could be fixed with simple paragraph comments and were likely just typos. Well done! ~Love, love, love the descriptions you use! There's enough to make each scene interesting without it dragging on. ~Death seems like a cool dude. 10/10. I enjoy seeing powerful beings be duplicitous and screw around. ~I love seeing the ironies of being an assassin! This sets up the conflict nicely! You contrast things well. ~Some bits are extremely funny, and I hadn't expected that from the initial tone of the opening! Code X's personality definitely jumps out some on the narration. ~Really, for any advice, I'd have to get extremely picky with things, so you should honestly take the rest of this review with a (gigantic, shiny) grain of salt. For instance, if your goal is immersion, perhaps slightly less "she felt" phrasing could help (and could instead be something like: "a wave of disgust coursed through her"--if I reworded something from the story). This is honestly such a stylistic thing that it's not worth changing the existing bits, though. ~Actions (that aren't some form of verbalization) aren't dialogue tags. This isn't a very frequent mistake, but again, nitpicky me is coming out. (LOL) The actions can stay where they are in the middle of statements with em-dashes, or simply a period and a new sentence will work in other cases. It took me a while to write this because I was just like... "But I can't think of anything much to critique? It's already off to a great start!" I suppose that sums up my feelings on this story so far, and I wish you luck on the WPC! :D (5/5)

Another novel to look forward to reading again 🥰. Review Proper after reading the latest chapter release 15. Writing Quality. The narratives are both easy and at the same engaging to read. So far as I continue to read there are no dull moments for me. Stability of Updates. It has a stable update so far. Story Development. The trasmigration scene and its transition is perfectly portrayed. The story is not too fast paced or slow. Hmm...the romance part is still not there but as the author said in her notes she want to build up thhe romance of the main leads, which I greatly look forward too. Character Design. Our female lead Code X has a cool and at the same time funny personality. I love her humor and at the same time the principles she carried in herself. Hmm...the male lead is not yet there, I mean I can't tell anything yet about his personality yet since he just show recently and the story is still starting but I look forward to knowing more about him, but so far I enjoy his smooth and quirky remarks. Other characters such as Death also create a perfect blend to make the story more interesting which is great. World Background. Set in ancient China setting. I can't wait to see how the female lead will handle the matters of the court or if there will be a lot of crisp face slapping as well hehehe. Overall this book despite having the generic trope of transmigration still reads as fresh as ever, with an interesting plotline, characters, this story has lots of potentials. Great work! Added this to my colls and definitely going to wait for the next chapters. All the best, author!
