"Isla."
Staring at relief, regret, happiness and maybe....love, Isla could not believe the man at her front was her husband, even if his appearance had not changed since her escape from the Hayes Duchy.
Compared to the indifference he clearly expressed during their five years of marriage, she wanted to laugh out loud, as she understood the reason for his disgusting emotions.
"Duke, you finally decided to find me, after your wife's child was proven not to be yours?" Sarcasm laced her tone as painful memories resurfaced in Isla's head.
Duke Hayes looked at his first wife, who gave him nothing but pure love in their marriage. However, he pursued another love with intentions and now he became the biggest fool.
"Isla, I know I do not owe you an explanation, but please think of our child." he begged, desperately. He wanted her and the child back in his life.
The child that links him to Isla, his one and only real wife. The person who loved him and he will do anything to bring back that love.
"Our child or my child, Duke?" Isla sharply retorted. Then, with a blank stare, she warned icily. " Choose your words carefully, Dante."

"Why did you choose me? Can't those beautiful and obedient girls satisfy you?" she demanded, pointing her sword at him.
"That's right. They can't fill my lonely heart. Meanwhile, as long as I'm with you, I can overturn the world!"

‘’YOUR MAJESTY, HER MAJESTY SLAPPED HER EXCELLENCY THE ARCHDUCHESS!’’
‘’Get all the imperial doctors and physicians in the empire. They must find a cure for her swollen hand!’’
‘’YOUR MAJESTY, HER MAJESTY SPENDS TOO EXTRAVAGANTLY!’’
‘’She is my wife and my empress. It is my wealth and fortune that she spends!’’
‘’YOUR MAJESTY….!’’
‘’YOUR MAJESTY…..!’’
‘’YOUR MAJESTY, HER MAJESTY…..!’’
The emperor, getting tired and annoyed of the numerous complaints around his beloved empress roared at the nobles.
‘’LEAVE MY BELOVED WIFE ALONE! SHE IS THE EMPRESS AND CAN DO WHATEVER SHE WANTS!’’ His chest heaved in anger
Witnessing the emperor’s rage towards their actions, all the opposing nobles kept quiet until an opportunity arrived at their doorstep.
‘’Y-Your majesty, the empress punished the queen for coming to the empress palace.’’ One of them got the courage to speak up.
This time, the nobles saw the emperor not speaking immediately and gloated about the empress’s misfortune in their hearts.
In the end, the queen is more favored than the empress.
This was they thought until….
‘’Add more to the queen’s punishments. How dare she go to the empress’s palace without permission!!’’ Surprisingly, the emperor was angrier than before!
*****
Rose Kingston transmigrated into a novel as a side character, an empress with the same name as hers, who will be replaced by the emperor’s true love, the female lead. The emperor, as the male lead and she, as a side character, were not meant to be.
‘So I will soon get deposed.’ Rose came to that thought, and then shrugged her shoulders like nothing was wrong with her tragic circumstances. She didn’t even bother in getting away from the main story of the novel or involving herself in the relationship of the main characters.
Having being the empress of the entertainment industry, she was tired of the schemes, workloads, fake smiles, fake relationships and all of it. She did not have any true friend and dedicated her measly free time in reading novels from a therapeutic suggestion. As though the heavens heard her earnest wish of leaving such life, she suddenly became an empress and decided to be lazy.
She was wealthy without working and it was not her money, so….she enjoyed her new life to the fullest!
But….
There was one thing Rose did not expect, and that is, attracting the emperor’s attention.
‘’Your majesty, please move to the queen’s palace as this empress will never serve you.’’
‘’You are my empress, my wife and the mother of my future children. If I don’t come to you, then who do I go to, my lazy empress?’’
Rose did not foresee the emperor turning to a big wolf, wagging his furry tail at her every command.
What will she do?
Continue staying in the empire with the main characters, running away from the main plot….
or
does fate have something else in store for her unexpected life as the empress character in a novel?

"Isla."
Fixant avec une expression mêlée de soulagement, de regret, de bonheur et peut-être... d'amour, Isla ne pouvait croire que l'homme devant elle était son époux, même si son apparence n'avait pas changé depuis son évasion du Duché Hayes.
Comparée à l'indifférence qu'il avait clairement exprimée pendant leurs cinq années de mariage, elle avait envie d'éclater de rire, alors qu'elle comprenait la raison de ses émotions dégoûtantes.
"Duc, vous avez finalement décidé de me retrouver, après que l'enfant de votre épouse se soit avéré ne pas être le vôtre ?" Le sarcasme teintait son ton alors que de douloureux souvenirs refaisaient surface dans la tête d'Isla.
Le Duc Hayes regardait sa première épouse, celle qui lui avait donné rien d'autre que de l'amour pur dans leur mariage. Cependant, il avait poursuivi un autre amour avec des intentions, et voilà qu'il était devenu le plus grand fou.
"Isla, je sais que je ne te dois pas d'explications, mais pense à notre enfant." implora-t-il, désespéré. Il voulait les avoir, elle et l'enfant, de retour dans sa vie.
L'enfant qui le relie à Isla, sa seule et véritable épouse. La personne qui l'a aimé et pour laquelle il ferait tout pour retrouver cet amour.
"Notre enfant ou mon enfant, Duc ?" Isla rétorqua sèchement. Puis, avec un regard vide, elle avertit froidement. " Choisis tes mots avec soin, Dante."

Lord Holloway's Adored Lady: Climbing The Ranks After Divorce
Lady Rhea Montgomery, Countess of Riverian has the perfect life.
A wonderful, powerful husband who rules his county with dignity and honour. Enough wealth to keep her dressed in the finest of silks and decked in jewels to enhance her radiant beauty. And people who love her as their beloved Countess.
Life is perfect, until suddenly it isn't and Rhea loses everything to a woman younger and more capable.
Becoming no one after being someone is almost too much to bear and just when Rhea resigns herself to her fate, along comes Lord Augustus Holloway, Duke of Ravenholm.
Everything she has heard about the powerful and dangerous man says to stay away but his sweet fondness for her says otherwise.
Augustus seduces Rhea into his frightening yet exciting world and leaves her questioning whether she could be someone without Lanon, and if her connection to him is worth the chaos it brings into her once peaceful life.
Rhea had once been a merchant's daughter and then a Countess. If she played the game right, and she damn well will, she could become a Duchess or maybe even Queen.

Note: There is some confusion because of the language I use and the setting but please be aware that THIS IS NOT A HISTORICAL NOVEL.
It's a mix between 19th/20th century society and values and modern day technological advances.
Please keep that in mind so you don't go in with expectations that will not be met.
If you're cool with that, go right ahead and enjoy.
Valerie was a beautiful heiress of a multi-million company and lived a perfect life. Or at least, that was what she thought. But, her seemingly ideal world crumbled apart when she found out that her fiance and step-sister betrayed her, schemed for her wealth, and pushed her off of a twenty-story building.
Waking up in a world different from what she was used to, Valerie realized that she transmigrated into the body of a duchess with the same name and gained access to her memories.
A world where humans and beastmen co-existed.
Humans lived in the city, while the beasts lived in the wilds. Valerie found herself getting involved with not one, not two, not three, but four handsome beastmen in this lifetime! A great deal of havoc was about to happen, and Valerie was now the center of them all!
Will she bring chaos or peace in the world where beastmen are treated like slaves? And which handsome beastman will she eventually fall prey to?
+++
Kai inspected Valerie's face, then her shoulders, and then her arms and waist, "Did that tiger beastman do something to you?"
Before Valerie could even answer, Zion beat her to it, "I did nothing to her. And both of us are beastmen, don't you think it's better for you to address me by my name?"
"He didn't do anything to you, right, Valerie?"
Zion furrowed his brow, "I already told you that I did nothing to her... Don't you think you're being disrespectful, Wolf?"
Kai turned to Zion and pushed his broad chest, "I was asking Valerie, not you, Tiger. Don't you think I'm being lenient to you considering how you were on top with her? Anyone would clearly see that you were about to kiss—"
"Even if we were to kiss each other, you don't have anything to do with it, Wolf." Zion smirked as he took a step closer, mocking him. "Only Valerie has the right to stop me, don't you think?"
"Y-You—"
"Try me, Wolf," Zion challenged with a relaxed smile.
And that was when Valerie knew that she was already in trouble.
[Mature Content!]
In a world where power and wealth dictated one's fate, Eliana was born into a life of poverty, the daughter of a humble villager. Tragedy struck early when her mother passed away at just six years old, leaving a void that was quickly filled by her father's new wife-a ruthless duchess from the village. The duchess brought with her four children of her own: one son and three daughters, all spoiled and cruel. They despised Eliana for her destitute roots, treating her as little more than a burden. Her father, once a loving man, turned a blind eye to her suffering at the hands of her stepfamily, becoming a mere shadow of the protector she once knew.
The years passed unforgivingly, and by eighteen, Eliana had been reduced to a servant in her own home, subject to the whims and cruelties of her stepmother and step-siblings. Seeing no further use for the girl, the duchess arranged a marriage to a reclusive duke from a neighboring town. The duke, an eccentric man needing a wife merely to uphold appearances, accepted the arrangement without a second thought.
Little did the scheming duchess know the dark truth behind the man she so eagerly married off her stepdaughter to. The so-called duke was no mere nobleman; he was the Demon God himself, a being of unimaginable power who ruled over all creation. Feared by mortals and deities alike, his true nature was hidden behind the guise of a simple lord, using his estate as a place of respite from the burdens of his eternal dominion.
The devil doesn't come dressed in a red cape and pointy horns. He comes as everything you've ever wished for.
Callum Facci hasn't always had it easy, but that's never stopped him from working hard for the life he wants. From the bastard son of a traitor to the candidate for the next prime minister, he had come a long way.
Just as he thought he would be the youngest prime minister of the country after winning the coming election in two months, a piece of news leaked out.
Apparently, the current Prime minister of the country was found dead with his balls crushed beyond recognition in his residence.
Callum's wish of becoming the next prime minister was soon replaced by another dire wish; to catch the murder of PM Joseph -- Duchess of Orin, Calliope Wilding.
Calliope Wilding, the rumoured cursed daughter of Late Duke of Orin didn't need an introduction. At birth, she lost her mother. At eighteen she was married off to a wealthy older man by her titled father. At nineteen, she lost her father. And at twenty, she lost her husband.
As if she couldn't be more cursed, Calliope Wilding is on run for more than a year now.
Her only wish-- to get her knight in shining armour.
Her wish came true.
Her knight appears not in shining armour but a black suit.
Then again, the devil also comes as everything you've ever wished for. And Callum Facci, the man with the face of an angel and demeanour that of a saint, is nothing but a devil appeared as a knight had come to drag her back to the fiery pits of hell.
But who had ever left unscathed from the sweet and sinful seduction of the devil? Especially the one with the face of an angel and the body of a knight?
......
Synopsis---2
Callum Facci's life motto used to become powerful, a little bit more powerful and all more powerful.
Then he, he met a beautiful and young painter (His greatest rival in disguise)
His life motto was quickly changed to:
Making Calliope Wilding his wife!
…
Callum Facci: Would you like to go out with me?
Calliope Wilding: What for?
Callum Facci: For coffee or a meal?
Calliope Wilding: Sorry, I like homemade food the best.
Dense Calliope– 1, All-wise Callum– 0
…
Even though Callum knew his Duchess was dense, but she was his, no objections allowed!

In the faithful day that Duchess Ilya von Bismarck had been waiting for her whole life, she had finally uncovered the identity of the lone culprit who made, not only the Empire, but the world suffer.
Not from a thorough investigation, not from a dedicated manhunt, but from a mere coincidence.
The time to capture the aid of the apocalypse -- the ring bearer of pandemics, the piper of the Bacharoths, the murdered, the warmonger -- was within her reach.
Or so she thought.
Perhaps, the schemes of time were in control.
Instead of seeing her sword impale the heart of the culprit, the Duchess suddenly opened her eyes to the grainy darkness of her room. Her makeshift bedroom -- the one she had used until she was fifteen years of age.
Ilya had gone back in time, gifted with the recollections of nearly all of the events in the first timeline.
But she wasn’t the only one.
The carriers of the truth, those who were aware of how bleak the future of the world was…
… They remembered almost everything. Regrettably, the only thing they had forgotten was the most important information -- The identity of the culprit and the circumstances surrounding them.
Faithful to their mission of stopping the perpetrator, the Duchess and the Time Criminals were on the move to search for the culprit.
Even if it meant that they had to go back in time over and over again.

“No matter where I am, even when there’s nothing left on this Earth, I’ll love you, everlastingly.”
___
She was a duchess of one of the most powerful kingdoms in the world, aka Sophia Windsor; he, a prince from a kingdom just as powerful and influential, the infamous Nicholas Ambrose. She, aromantic. He, cold and bitter.
He wanted to marry for his kingdom’s sake, whilst she had no intentions of marrying or falling in love, having seen how love destroyed the people she loved and cared about.
And yet, they crossed paths.
So when the two meet under such circumstances, will their love be restored? Would their spark overcome any decision of theirs they had made in the past?
____
[WARNING: MATURE CONTENT]
It was merely a few seconds later before Nicholas had kissed her, lips slamming against each other as Sophia deepened the kiss, sliding her tongue inside his mouth, only making the kiss all the more passionate as the room’s temperature became scorching hot.
Nicholas wrapped his muscular arm around Sophia’s waist, only successfully managing to weaken Sophia’s knees, ridding her of any other thoughts except how much she desired him at that very moment, how much she wanted him, just him.
The next things that were said and done seemed a huge blur as the next thing she remembered seemed to be the unbuckling of his belt, and the unbuttoning of his shirt; the unzipping of her gown - not that it was of value to either of them when they tore their clothes apart in a mad rush.
