Maine Capili is a hopeless romantic. She has this predisposed concept of an ideal man that serve as her basis for falling in love. But it seemed that she was born unlucky in love. She ended up having her heart broken numerous times that she vowed not to fall in love again.

Since she can't experience love in real life, Maine turns to writing romantic novels online under a pseudonym to create beautiful love stories where the male protagonists were based on her own idea of the perfect boyfriend. She became popular online through her novels and amassed a great following with her stories. 

Then one day, she met a handsome stranger who promised to make her believe in love again. He was everything that she ever wanted or dreamt of in a potential boyfriend and maybe more. He was almost perfect. As perfect as the male characters in her stories.

Did she really finally found the perfect boyfriend or is he just as real as the male leads in her novels?

Leo, your average young guy with too much free time. Reads way too many online novels and watches way too much anime.

So what happens when he has the usual cliche death and resurection, but with a twist?

There are a lot of network writers that started off writing simply because they loved to read network novels as well, but the original author wrote something they disliked, so they wrote another version of that novel according to the way they liked it, and it became a doujin instead.
Han Leng was not this type of network writers, he liked literature more than anybody. He hoped that he could be a poet, or even an essayist, but he realized that poem or prose were already dead in today's entertainment scene. Poetry had become something useless, unable to get a proper job with it. It only could be used to show off one's talent or teasing literary young women...
Han Leng discovered network literature, and he dived into the circle of commercialize network literature. He hoped he could earn some draft money to realize his dream to become a poet.
He planned to write something for him to earn infinite amount of money through web texts, so he continued to pursue his dream of becoming a poet or essayist. Every web text he wrote, was just to test his skill as a writer. His goal in life was probably to write something big enough for people to remember it forever.
Since he dived into the network of web writing, he would read other web novels as well. There were a minority of writers actually refer to another novel to produce more quality novels. Those who shut themselves in, they were destined to fail forever.
Most readers would know from "Fight Break Spheres" the iconic breaking off an engagement at the prologue, and the golden finger of grandpa's ring. But these scenes first appeared at "Sacred Grave" and "Coiling Dragon", a very good example of finding inspiration from another novel and make it more interesting yourself.
Han Leng's own web novel, "Dominating the World with Online Game", the novel title itself already giving a "Long Aotian[1]" vibe. He wrote all that himself, with an average subscription of 3,000, not bad for a high schooler. He was different than those authors who get 3,000 average subscriptions after failing for 7, 8 years...
He was able to write his novel because he loved to play online games too, the way he wrote made readers felt like as if they were sucked into the gaming world. His sentences were great, his female characters were lifelike, and all of them were dependant on the main protagonist, leaving lots of space for imagination, that was how he got all his subscriptions from.
Online games and Esports were in the same genre, Han Leng would spend his free time to read these popular novels in the same genre. He did not expect that he would get addicted to reading someone's Esports novel. This author was none other than Rosemary, the leading author in this genre.
Han Leng was reading the "The Strongest King" as well, he was one of the loyal fans of Rosemary, because he liked "LoL" very much. Rosemary's novel that described "LoL" was actually fascinating, except for a fact that he was bad at writing about female characters.
Han Leng thought that his ability to describe a female character, or a romantic scene could easily overtake Rosemary, not because he was full of self-confidence.
After he finished the latest update of "The Strongest King", he felt like that as if his eyes were being rubbed with poison, what the heck was this "Yu Shengfan"?
Is she the heroine of this novel?
He would abandon this book immediately if this turns out to be true!
Even Han Leng did not know how to describe a rich lady, but ever since he befriended Zhao Youyue, he had a rough idea about it.
There were a lot of women who liked to show off their wealth, whether it was from another man or sugar daddy. Once they were rich, they would not hesitate to let the whole world know about their wealth. While the real rich ladies were not that low standards, they did not have to show off their wealth purposely. Even though small minor details, it could show that they really simply did not bother about money. To describe a perfect image of a rich lady, it should start from details, not her appearance with all the branded items!
Han Leng could not take it anymore, he logged into his account as a reader, and complain at the comment section of "The Strongest King".
Usually network writers would not log into their own account to complain about another author, it would make them look like as if they were picking a fight, especially those who wrote in the same genre.
"I strongly recommend that Mr.Rosemary should not add in female character! Honestly, I was offended by this character 'Yu Shengfan'! I knew a rich lady in real life, and she's nothing like her. Which rich lady would go a dirty cyber cafe full of smokers with an extended version of a limo? I will definitely stop supporting this book if this continues, even though I never tip before, but I'm still a full-time subscriber with a lot of fan points!"
Han Leng emphasized his fan points because he was afraid that the author would ignore his suggestion, because he ignored all those pirated readers too. Pirated readers were not worthy of his attention, they should keep their suggestion to themselves.
After he posted his complaints on the comment section, he felt a little bit better. He hoped that Yu Shengfan did not appear anymore, he only wanted to see how the main protagonist would play his game, what were his newly gained abilities through the golden finger, and how he would go to the top.
At this point in the novel, Lin Feng was still a live-broadcast gamer, together with his best pal, Tang Yongkai, who was nicknamed "Hoodlum Tang", due to his frequent usage of "Hoodlum" in game. He looked kind and gentle, but in game, he would be very serious and able to execute Lin Feng's command perfectly.
Even though Lin Feng had retired, but he had not given up on creating his old team, he recognized Tang Yongkai as one of his teammates. He had the reputation and funds, the owner of this cyber cafe.
Why did Lin Feng fail to get the title as the "The Strongest King"? That was because his old team boss was not willing to invest more in their team, so they hired a so-called "genius" from the "Korea vessel state" into their team. This "genius" was usually seen flirting with girls, and would be useless at crucial moments.
Lin Feng's only chance to get the "Strongest" title was ruined by this "genius" from Korea. What made it interesting was, the title of the "Strongest" was taken by the player named "Demon King", obviously he was a fake in reality.
No matter in reality or novel, in ancient China or in "LoL", "Demon King" from Korea was in his peak form, suppressing Lin Feng in every other way.
Rosemary obviously wanted to write about Lin Feng to create his own team, to pursue his dream of being on the top, with the game changed into "Eternal War".
Han Leng realized that the comment section of "The Strongest King" was already full of heated and hatred comments…
Yu Shengfan, get out of "The Strongest King"!
We don't need a female gamer for Esports!
Translation Note:
[1]Long Aotian - usually used to refer an overpowered main protagonist.


An introverted girl has had enough of the isolation inadvertently formed by her solitary nature. Things changed when she discovers that she has the ability to transverse across the fabric of our universe into the dimensions of multiple storylines. Not only do these storylines leave her with invaluable lessons - they also impart a portion of their power - if she is deserving of it. The time has come for Zhao Youyue to change her fate. Never again, will she remain as a Side-Character!

 Today was the first day of my college as usual my day started with a peaceful  bath  thinking about how exciting my day would go whether my uncertain but scheduled problems which come unannounced will come or postponed blah blah blah .....
             As a serious introvert I preferred being alone talking to someone might not bring me comfort  so always cold and poker face was my appearance. The college PRESTIGE CRESCENT HIGH was one of the best colleges of the country  there were elites studying who turned out to be best in whichever field they were in . What fascinated me most was the infrastructure of the college campus which was perfect for me to be in the vicinity of 'SILENCE' . The most perfect day for me would be a day without violent loud music by the way listening to mild music with a 10% level is one of my hobbies and most important is the sound of tik-tok of of wall clock constantly reminding me that 'TIME THOUGH REVOLVES AROUND YOU BUT STOPS FOR NO ONE' .
           Hoping a problem free day I started my new journey by placing myself  on second bench by myself and as it was first day so me being introvert would definitely I won't go and talk to make friends so for the whole of first half my mouth was shut as soon as it was 12 pm I made my way towards canteen area because one of school's code of  conduct states that students and staff are not allowed to use campus premise for food and beverages except for cafeteria or food court. Then I hopped into cafeteria as soon as possible got my order for 1 Extra cheese sandwich and made my way to an empty table of maximum 5 chairs in middle of cafeteria. I was kind of surprised that why no one in such a rush hour place attempts to sit on this empty table with maximum chairs???
but then the thought of my hungry belly made me loose to my suspicions and in the end I opened my lunch box and started filling my appetite while reading digital book in other hand and stuffing food in mouth with other I had no time to look around . Reading online romantic novels and watching  TV series was one of my favorite time pass so whenever I got free time I would never fail to look in my cellphone for reading at least a page or chapter enjoying my company really made me energetic. In the process of hurriedly eating I had no look around me but suddenly the environment around me went silent from fish market and I started feeling cold chills behind me as if it was the silence before big storm.
          Soon I figured out that whole mob around me was looking at me as if I am a criminal who did a very serious crime then I heard a handsomely hoarse voice from my behind saying "Get lost.... junior  that's my spot"  looking at him I could see icy cold look in his eyes filled with anger but shiny enough to make someone fall for him . His attire clearly represented that he is a spoilt brat from a very rich family  as from tip to toe he was covered with branded clothes and accessories who definitely held his ego at priority. This type of person I hated the most so giving the same cold glare back to him I continued to eat waving my left hand towards other 4 empty chairs I said "All yours" . With no change in temper he replied back "that's my spot get looost" my mind was full of terror with his constant haunt of fiery eyes so in an attempt to shock him I suddenly stood up banging on the table  looking over and under the table as if searching something precious in 30 sec giving him same blow of words "I didn't find your precious name any where and I happen to come here first so currently that's my spot" without giving him a chance to utter another word I sat on chair and packed my empty lunch box took finished plate to put in bin and left that place giving that same fiery glare to him...

Upon hearing Shiroishi Kazuma's words, Ko Gohon's eyes instantly lit up and he anxiously said, "Uncle Kazuma, I've realized my mistakes. Quickly teach me, what do I have to do?!"
"Currently, the previous bet is already over. We'll just ignore it and not consider it any further." Shiroishi Kazuma slowly said, "So, now, we mainly have to focus on the online novel website.
"According to your bet with Hong Dali, the person with the most number of daily updated books two weeks later wins. If it's according to your idea to increase the flat fees of the authors at the novel website and find ghostwriters to increase the number of novels, all these can more or less be done, but it's still far from enough!
"In this day and age, channels are the king.
"Number one, get through all the possible channels of the novel website and liaise with our joint venture companies in Heavenly State. As long as they are enterprises related to the internet, they must all advertise on the novel website.
"Number two, liaise with the telecommunication companies in Heavenly State and get them to send messages to prompt people to read our novels!
"Number three, liaise with all the web portals in Heavenly State, including Weibo, and open all channels to read our novels.
"Number four, hold a free of charge reading day to attract those readers that are used to reading free of charge books.
"Number five, hype things up and expose our Feng Yun website's remunerations for our authors on all the websites related to novels!
"Number six, liaise with the TV stations to interview our authors and create more exposure for the website!" 
Upon hearing Shiroishi Kazuma's suggestions, Ko Gohon's face glowed as he firmly smacked his thigh. "Understood. I'll get these done right away!"
…
In the next few days, advertisements about Feng Yun website suddenly emerged everywhere. Advertisements for Feng Yun website were all over all the various websites in Heavenly State.
"Feng Yun website is the largest local reading base, free of charge reading and downloading of the novels. No pop-up ads, simple and clean webpage. Come to Feng Yun website to find good novels!"—Haoche Website. 
"Feng Yun website is an online novel website with no pop-up ads, providing the latest and best novels for all novel lovers. Come to Feng Yun website to read novels!"—Dream Paris.

Countless people throughout Heavenly State had received messages about Feng Yun website's novels.

"[Urban] Exceedingly Beautiful Superior: Pretty Tenant."
"[Fantasy] Wuzun Sword Slashes The Vault Of Heaven: Wudao Vault of Heaven."
Countless curious readers clicked on the advertisements, and after taking a few glances, they were satisfied with what they saw. "Mm, these book recommendations are not bad. It's quite good to kill time. This Feng Yun website is quite brilliant!"
Of course, there were those unimpressed as well. "Tsk, such a tacky way of promoting books. Now that there is the smartphone reading app produced by Young Master Hong Dali, who would still want to read these. Zhong Dian website is the king!"
…
On Xinhai Weibo—
Drunk and leaning on the fence of the pavilion, Meng Ziying Weibo Talent: "Feng Yun website's novel 'Yifan's trouble' is very well written. I like how Yifan bullies Shaowan, serves him right for bullying Xiaochao… Mm, amusing as usual, this work is quite good." 
Douban Doujiao Doubao Weibo Talent: "Feng Yun website's novels are quite good. I read novels there the whole day today. The books are not bad! Worth taking a look at them, I strongly recommend!

…
In the various readers' group chats.
"These two days, there are so many free books to read on Feng Yun website. I've discovered a few good ones."
"Really, then I'll go and take a look too."
"Of course it's true, it writes that the books are free of charge for a limited period of time!"
"Not bad, not bad. This website is doing pretty well!"
…
On the largest local online novel forum.
"Overwhelming amount of subscriptions! Feng Yun website with all kinds of awesomeness!"
"Zhong Dian or Feng Yun? A newbie feels that Feng Yun is still better!"
"Please help, a newcomer wanting to know whether it's better to go to Feng Yun or Zhong Dian? I personally feel that Feng Yun is better, I can earn quick money."
"Zhong Dian wants to defeat Feng Yun just by relying on a smartphone app, does Feng Yun know about this?"
…
At the TV station.
"Hello, hello, as a Great God-level author on Feng Yun website, may I know how much can your monthly earnings reach?"
"Earnings, this… Around 20 to 30 thousand per month is still fine."
"So much? Then you must be one of those people with the highest earnings on Feng Yun website, right?"
"No! How is it possible that my earnings are so high. My fingers are not nimble, so I type considerably slower. We have people who can type fast and are able to write 10 to 20 thousand words per day, and their remuneration is at least 50 thousand and above per month. There are even people earning 100 thousand!"
"So much?!"
"Yes, Feng Yun website's perks are very good."
…
In Tianjing City, the tallest television tower, in the top floor revolving restaurant.
"Young Master, Chief, the latest totaled reports of Feng Yun website are out!" The bodyguard was shivering with fear as he looked at Shiroishi Kazuma whose back was facing him and was standing in front of the window with his hands placed at his back. This time, he really saluted him. "According to the latest reports, currently, the site traffic of the website has already increased to 2.4 million and above for daily independent IPs. These two days, large batches of newcomers have started writing new books, and the number of updated books in three days have already reached 3,600 books!" 
"So fast!" Ko Gohon exclaimed, "Uncle Kazuma, your idea is really useful!"
"So-so." Shiroishi Kazuma's voice was very calm. "How many daily updated books does Zhong Dian website have now?"
"Chief," The bodyguard's expression and voice were filled with respect. "At the moment, there are approximately 4,500 newly updated books daily."
"Mm, we still lack 900 books." Shiroishi Kazuma said with satisfaction, "It's still within our control. If things continue progressing this way, probably in no time, we will be able to overtake Zhong Dian website. After all, the authors are after all the benefits and perks. As long as there is enough advertising, and the money is sufficient, it's not difficult to attract authors over."
Ko Gohon fully looked up to Shiroishi Kazuma now, as he anxiously asked, "Uncle Kazuma, then, do we continue like this? Why don't I get more ghostwriters to write more books? It's fine as long as it can surpass Hong Dali. I don't plan to earn much money from it."
Upon hearing Ko Gohon's words, Shiroishi Kazuma shook his head and slowly said, "No, if Hong Dali can earn money, why can't we?"
"Ah?" Ko Gohon said in surprise, "Uncle Kazuma, you're planning to… seriously run this Feng Yun website?"
"Yes." Shiroishi Kazuma nodded, yet he didn't continue talking about the novel website but instead looked out of the window, saying, "Young Master Gohon, look at the night view of Tianjing City. How beautiful is it? It's not lacking compared to Tokyo in our Jaban Empire, isn't it?" 
It was night right now. The night view of Tianjing City was extremely beautiful. Neon lights were flashing, and it was especially comfortable to stand from high up and look down, coupled with the gentle night breeze.
"It's very pretty." Ko Gohon agreed. "I haven't really noticed it previously."
"Yes, we haven't noticed it previously." Shiroishi Kazuma's voice was very calm, as he slowly stated, "It's the same for our Toyoda Conglomerate. As the top 16 in the world, the funds of our Toyoda Conglomerate are ample. You normally don't care about this, so you won't care about how much money you spend. You just feel that all the money is there for you to take it."
"I understand, Uncle Kazuma." Upon hearing this, Ko Gohon instantly understood what Shiroishi Kazuma meant.
Actually, he wasn't a stupid person. It was just that in the midst of fighting with Hong Dali, he had always been at the losing end, thus his conflicted mind.
Toyoda Conglomerate was indeed very rich. Just like the night view of Tianjing City, though it was pretty, one wouldn't notice it after looking at it for many times. But no matter how rich it was, after all, it had been built up bit by bit, and it didn't just drop down from the sky.
In that case, as long as they properly operated this Feng Yun website, then they could earn money. So why don't they do it properly and well?
"Uncle Kazuma, what should we do next?" Ko Gohon asked.
"Now since the popularity has already been increased, then next, we'll take in all the good ones and eliminate the bad ones." Shiroishi Kazuma slowly said, "Eliminate all those poor-quality books and get them to finish writing them as soon as possible. Secure those good-quality books and do your best in nurturing their authors. At the same time, slightly change the welfare benefits policy and slowly convert the severance method to giving out dividends. After the novel website has entered a stable phase of operation, it would then be a virtuous cycle." 
"Uncle Kazuma, you are brilliant!" Ko Gohon was elated. "Then, after the website has entered a virtuous cycle, we can earn quite a lot of money, right?"
"Yes." Shiroishi Kazuma smiled. "Don't belittle online novel websites. All the profits from the adaptations of films, online games, merchandises and so on are actually huge. I truly admire Hong Dali. The things started up by this lad truly have very big prospects!" 
"After hearing what Uncle Kazuma just said, I realized that this Hong Dali is very brilliant!" Now, Ko Gohon finally had to admit that Hong Dali was indeed brilliant. "I haven't thought about all this!"
Speaking up to this point, Ko Gohon recalled his bet with Hong Dali. "But Uncle Kazuma, my bet with Hong Dali…"
"Hehe, there's no hurry on that." Shiroishi Kazuma wasn't worried at all about the bet and insipidly said, "Since I've come, of course I have a way to help you win. Wait for a few more days, let's see first whether Hong Dali's side makes any moves."
Shiroishi Kazuma assured Ko Gohon, then instructed him, "Remember, leave your trump card for the last. Don't take them all out at once. Or else, what will you have left to fight him by then?"
"I understand!" This time, Ko Gohon was really convinced. "Thank you for your advice, Uncle Kazuma."


"I have to squander; otherwise, won't it be a waste of my parent's talent at earning money?" Hong Dali answers a reporter's question matter-of-factly. 

Just after the interview ends, Hong Dali opens the Great Prodigal System's interface and looks at the various good stuff displayed in it. Stroking his chin, he mumbles to himself, "I just need to squander 200 billion yuan more to exchange for the blueprint of the core technology, Engine Destruction, found in the strongest humanoid mecha weapon, Neo Granzon. Looks like I'll have to work harder!"

"I want to splurge! I want to squander!"




Frederic Commers, Mason Hillards, Grayson Hitch, Henric Coopers, Morals Mucks, Tobby Linderson, Cathy Coors—all notable names attending the Cassidy Wilfried Award Show. The Award Show was based on Cassidy Wilfried, author famous for her non-fiction novels where she elaborated on numerous obstacles she had to face such as mental health, suicidal preventions, physical and mental abuse, bullying and numerous other hardships that shaped her. It was an annual Award Show that many celebrity names attended, even from different industries, and it was always a success. 

Her palace was ginormous—her husband, Boris Wildfried, has been a national tennis player and known worldwide for being founder and CEO of a company named HeavyWays. It was an online merchandise similar to Amazon, and very successful around the entire world. Everyone that attended the palace was patted, and their invitation letters, which had an imprinted seal, were checked before they were allowed inside the home. The ceremony was in a gigantic magnificent hall, where chandeliers layered the ceiling, decorations covered the walls and hundreds of waiters travelled across the room with trays of wine and champagne for anyone to take. 

Draven H. Malcom had arrived at about eight o'clock. He was well-dressed; a navy suit with a bow tie around his neck, and brown pants that coloured nicely with his suit. His hair was gelled backwards with one strand over his eye, and he fixed his gold watch on his wrist. The moment he stepped down from his vehicle, he was ambushed by reporters. 

"Mr. Malcom, it is the first time you have shown yourself in public ever since the allegation of—" 

"How many times do we have to say, no questions!" 

Cassidy's security guards immediately came to the rescue, forming a pathway for Draven and the rest of his team to follow inside, and he thanked them. 

"Thank god there were security guards out there, I would've punched one of them in the face," Hector grumbled. 

Jason agreed, wrapping his arm around Rebecca's waist protectively, "No kidding. They were shoving too." 

"I'm excited to drink, that's all I care about," Draven admitted when they entered the hall. There was a stage at the front of the hall but it was barely visible from the back. It was humongous, and Draven was greeted by multiple people the moment he entered. 

Hela Monitt, author of The Exquisite Flames, a series of fantasy novels at its fourth book and ongoing. She changed the entire way people view the genre of fantasy, giving her own platform and creativity to the name. She was one of the firsts to greet Draven with such excitement in their tone, "You appear to be doing well!" 

"I am, thanks to my team. How have your writings been going?" 

"Pretty impressive, if I do say so myself. I've had writer's block for the past month, which made me revise other novels instead, and now that my writer's block has miraculously faded, I feel as if my mind wanders continuously." 

Draven engaged in short conversations, grabbing glasses of wine from walking waiters and finishing them rapidly. He had been feeling tense every since the allegations, as if too many eyes were watching him for a mistake that may prove the correct, and Draven believed getting drunk at this party would make him feel free. The team headed their separate ways, all talking to different people, and Draven eventually finishing his seventh glass, finally feeling a bit of wooziness to his mind. 

That was when the award show started. Cassidy Wilfried was the host, and she was applauded before she began introducing each award. Draven was nominated for four awards, the Love Scandal Award, which was the best fiction romantic comic, the Restless Award, the comic or novel that kept readers on their toes, the Spontaneous Award, the comic or novel that was successive from the start, and the Elite Award, comic or novels that are selected as must-reads. 

It was only when the award show started, that Draven's eyes finally found Eric and Kyle near the front. He noticed something was weird, since Kyle attempted to reach for Eric's hand and he pulled away. Then, Kyle leaned in aggressively, and they seemed to be hissing at one another in low whispers before Eric turned around and walked away from him. 

He merely ignored it, and returned his eyes on Cassidy who finally began reading the nominees for the Love Scandal Award. One of the nominees was Kyle Merchi, and merely hearing his name made Draven feel disgust in his mouth. He had nothing but hatred for Kyle, and all he wanted to give him a taste of his own medicine. But Draven kept his composure, and when the winner was announced, which was him, he headed onto the stage. 

He won all four awards, but since there were about twenty-five awards, he had to wait awhile. However, he noticed Eric returned during the readings of nominees, but Kyle was no longer at his previous spot. Eric seemed to be glancing around the room for him, and they made eye contact. Rapidly, Draven looked away and it was only a few seconds later that he looked again and Eric was gone. 

Eric had gone looked for Kyle; he had said some terrible things when Kyle was attempting to be friendly earlier, and he wanted to apologize instead of returning home hostile. That was why he returned from the bathroom, and when he couldn't find Kyle, he went on a search for him. There were doors that lead to the outside garden, and Eric, after roaming around the hall, decided to check outside. 

He followed the trail in between large cherry laurels, and the pathways separated into a few sections to continue along different parts of the garden. He heard voices in one direction, and followed that path. When the voices grew nearer, and he recognized Kyle, he quickened his pace. There was another separation of the trail, and he had to cut a corner this time. 

And when he did, he had not been predicting to witness such scene. 

Kyle had not heard him approaching, and his lips were still passionately placed on Rebecca's, who had her arms wrapped around his neck. She even tightened her grip, biting his bottom lip teasingly and Eric saw Kyle smile warmly against the kiss. It was only when Eric inhaled a sharp breath that he was heard, and both their heads turned to face him.

Eric Valence thought finding a job as an editor for a well-known author named Draven H. Malcolm was the beginning of his writing career. He had no idea that it would also be the beginning of his love story.

***

"You're so clueless, it bothers me."

He frowned, "What does that mean-"

"You never wondered why I gave you all the best things on my floor - the closest desk, drinks from my office, my newest project. I even went to your house and picked you up to make sure you weren't late."

"My portfoli-"

"There are twenty three others with the same experience as yours, that was an excuse," he admitted, peering into Eric's eyes and daring him to look away.

Eric didn't.

Draven sighed, "The reason I got mad that day..." he paused for a moment, hesitating again but deciding to let it all out, "the reason I got mad is because I heard you kissed Jason, which I wasn't too pleased about but then seeing you and Justin together..."

He never finished his sentence, and Eric raised an eyebrow, "What about Justin and I?"

"I feel like you're doing this on purpose," Draven chuckled, examining Eric's confused face.

"I'm not sure what you're talking about-"

"I like you," Draven said clearly with his entire diaphragm, expression it as loud as he could for Eric to understand.

Eric felt his throat squeeze itself shut, no oxygen coming in or out.

"I like you, a lot more than I thought, Eric," he breathed.

Eric was unable to believe it, shook his head and looked away for moment, before meeting his gaze again. 

"Why me?" he asked quietly.

Draven shrugged his shoulders, eyeing Eric with adoration and admiration, "I'm not sure either, but I want you to be mine."

Articles about sex scenes in books usually fail in one of 3 ways. They often:

Give such a short love scene that you're begging for more but can't find a longer excerpt online
Feature Romantic or Erotica novels with busty men or bodice-rippers on the cover
Offer sex passages from the classics (D.H. Lawrence, anyone?) that everyone knows and has already read (what's wrong with modern sex writing?)
The sex scenes below are literary fiction. But don't run away! They're really good sex and really good writing, and yes, those things can be combined. I'll prove it to you.

Just read the first couple of excerpts below and you'll find steamy, romantic, arousing sex writing. Writing that doesn't make you cringe from bad prose. Writing that offers a number of pleasures to be had — psychological, word-play, beautiful descriptions. These are some damn fine love scenes in books.

Before we get there, a quick quiz: What is the difference between erotica and sex in literary novels?

In erotica, the sex is never bad.

It's always vagina-blowing, cock-swelling fantastic. 

But in the excerpts below, sometimes the sex scenes don't go as planned, or one of the partners wants something he is not getting. It's not all roses and multiple orgasms. In short, it's more like the complexity of real life, which sometimes arouses you and sometimes depresses you.

Writers, read these sex scenes in books and learn! Don't fall into the trap of writing terrible sex scenes and earn yourself a nomination for the Bad Sex in Fiction award. Glean from this wisdom. Study and prove yourself approved. As Steve Almond has recommended, if you want more insight into how to write sex, there's no better text than the Song of Solomon.

I also have to make a pitch for a nonfiction work that features some of the sex scenes in books below: The Joy of Writing Sex. (For those of you who are old enough, that's a clever play on the famous 1972 book, The Joy of Sex).

And for those champions of diversity who are going to try to VIDA count these excerpts according to the diversity of sexual acts, please know that I tried my best to choose racy novel excerpts that illustrated a wide range of human sexuality. If I did not happen to hit upon your specific form of sexual entertainment, I humbly apologize in advance (but seriously — there must be something here that entertains you)

report this, please. I'm 12 and this is all porn

I squeezed my eyes shut preventing myself from crying as I finish the last chapter of the novel. 
During our clearing operation in an abandoned building that terrorists used as a hiding place, I found a flash drive on top of a deteriorating side drawer. I took it hoping it would serve as evidence and will help the progress of the investigation. After the operation, I immediately  scanned the files. The usb plug was a little bit rusty but it was still readable. To my surprise, the flash drive contained only one file. I immediately contacted the computer forensics division to check if there were any encrypted files but they found nothing. The only file in the flash drive was a PDF named "The Sun's Empress". I opened it. And ended up reading the whole thing. 

The novel revolves around a noble named Adelia Pennington. A bright and young girl who captured the heart of the Sunnivan prince, Alaric Soliel. It's mostly about how Alaric became the King of the Sunnivan Empire and how Adelia helped him to be one. Alaric is the sun that will bring light on the Sunnivan Empire and Adelia is his empress, the mother of his empire. 

After reading, I immediately researched about the novel. 

"The Sun's Empress" was a popular romantic-fantasy novel online before. It basically came out of nowhere, rose to the top and sat on the top spot of every popular reading sites. It was an online sensation and got people from around the globe hook to the storyline. 

However it was never published into a book. Apparently, the author declined all publishing offers for reasons no one knows. Then, after finishing "The Sun's Empress", she never wrote another story and vanished into thin air. She left the readers wanting for more. They bombarded her social media accounts which she deactivated later on. There were no other ways to find her because aside from her gender, she didn't reveal anything about her. Then, years passed and her novel was completely forgotten. Various novels of the same genre arised and completely burying the novel who paved the way.

Most of the articles on the internet were dated back 6 years ago. And the sites where one can read the novels already stopped functioning or those that are still present deleted the novel so there's no way for people to read it. And I am a lucky individual who happened to find this flash drive containing the full novel. 

I sighed and removed my glasses. I don't know if I'm feeling sad because the novel won't get a sequel or because I can't extend my gratitude to the author for writing a masterpiece or because I found a novel instead of an evidence. But, whatever the reason, one thing I know is I was amazed by the story. 

Iclosed my laptop and went to bed after. 

But little did I know that one day I will die and I will be transmigrated into the novel. Into the body of the a supporting character named Henrietta Lovell.

Diana Cruz, a military officer, after dying during a hostage-taking operation woke up in the body of Henrietta Eloise Lovell, a character from a novel she read one week ago. Henrietta is a supporting character and a villainess who has little appearance in the novel and is deemed insignificant and will die later on. Diana having the knowledge of the storyline is determined to change her fate and live this second life the way she wants it. 

But will defying fate be a wise decision?

Xu Baishan was feeling too sick to continue. After saying a few words, he dismissed everyone.

Late that night, Mu Mingcheng was given his room at the estate, so he decided to rest here instead of heading home.

"I never imagined that cousin would also have a romantic side," said Xu Jiaoyun, the youngest daughter of the Xu family's second elder sister-in-law. The girl's eyes sparkled as she stared at Mu Mingcheng's figure, with those wide shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs. She said with a sigh, "Cousin must have saved a nation in his previous life."

Xu Chenghui heard this sentence right when he entered. He scolded her with a frown, "You should go to sleep now that it's late."

Xu Jiaoyun didn't care for him. She mumbled a few words then stuck up her tongue at him before retreating to her room.

This girl has no idea what it entails to save a nation, and now she's even saying that Mingcheng is a soft romantic?

That's just ridiculous!

If one was trained to be a killing machine, how would that person have a shred of tenderness?

Xu Xhenghui sneered in malice.

Outside the window, the rain continued to pour. Gu Jin sat cross-legged on the sofa as she quickly browsed for information on her computer.

After some time, she set aside her laptop and did some stretches, then treated herself to some ginger tea and brown sugar on the table.

After her stomach was filled with warmth, she leisurely laid down on her bed.

Starting a business is difficult!

Ever since Tong Lin invited her to create a magazine together, Gu Jin's heart had been swayed by his proposal.

Why be a soldier when you can be a general? And which CEO would be willing to work under someone else?

Moreover…Gu Jin touched her face as if she were caressing a delicate flower. She had the looks. With a little more money, there would be no need to look for other small meat in the future ** and there is countless fresh meat flocking to her. [note] I think she means meat = men [/note]

As for Mu Mingcheng?

Surely, neither of them can satisfy the other's desires, so it's best to break up within three months.

Gu Jin spent an entire day in her apartment reading information about this world.

In general, the development of literature here is quite similar to that of her previous life. However, web novels were still in its infancy, and all of the romance stories online were filled with overbearing masochistic CEO's.

Gu Jin shuddered whenever she read those overdramatic plotlines. No wonder she couldn't find any interesting novel to read these days.

Fortunately, persistence pays off. With her hard work, she was finally able to find a small website with decent works.

Among the novels, several high-quality works were similar to the web novels she used to read in her previous life.

Gu Jin touched her chin thoughtfully. Since she was helping a friend open a magazine, will it be possible to publish her novel as well?

After this though, she opened her WeChat and sent a message to Tong Lin.

After all, starting a magazine as a business was Tong Lin's idea, so it's only polite to ask his opinion. If she published her novel under the magazine without his knowledge, he may be unhappy.

Anyways, if he doesn't agree with her idea, Gu Jin can only negotiate with another publisher by herself.

Soon enough, he replied.

[Good idea. I'll talk to Yang Zhe in a few days about it.]

A webpage link was also sent.

When Gu Jin opened it, she found that is linked to a novel targeted towards boys with about a million words. The story was quite popular, but there were no official contract or book signings.

How did Gu Jin not realize that a noble and benevolent young man like Tong Ling would read books like these on his past time!

She tried to tell him as delicately as possible, [President…I don't read…that kind of genre]

[It's not like that…]

[I promise, there's no overdramatic romance to it. You can check it out and see]

Tong Lin recognized her hesitation and had quickly explained to her.

Tong Lin was certainly a trustworthy character, which was why Gu Jin felt a little guilty. For some reason, she couldn't refuse Tong Lin.

[Alright, let me finish reading this first.]

[Yes, go ahead.]

Gu Jin crossed into a novel as the supporting character and best friend of the main female lead, Cheng Xin.

Cheng Xin was frequently surrounded by men of status and quality. As Gu Jin was the female lead’s dearest friend, she doesn’t mind settling for the leftover meager soup if the female lead chose to eat the meat. The two sisters believed they’d enjoy this friendship for a lifetime.

But just as she was ready to latch firmly unto Cheng Xin’s golden thigh, she discovered the body she crossed into had memories of future events beyond the novel’s plot, finding out that her marriage would end in utter failure.

The female lead, Cheng Xin who often quarreled with the male protagonist would head over to Shao Chong for comfort even though Shao Chong was married to Gu Jin. And after several incidences, Gu Jin advised Shao Chong to have a sense of propriety as her spouse but he told her not to think too much about it, claiming that he only maintained a pure friendship with Cheng Xin.

On the day Gu Jin was kidnapped, her good husband stayed by her cousin’s side and accompanied her to the hospital.

When Gu Jin transmigrated into this new world and learned of the truth, she did not wish to waste this new life as a supporting role for her cousin as the previous soul had done. She’d not live a life as a spectator in someone else’s love story. No. She would be the protagonist of her romance in this new life.

Hey there! So.. as you might've read, I planned on writing a chapter last month however I wasn't in a good... mental space is how I'd put it? Not to mention, I start online classes next week and life's been hectic with last minute registrations and such... ㅠㅠ

However, I still plan on keeping this updated as this is my only story that really popped off despite the terrible writing and minuscule planning involved...
＿|￣|○  

I'm not really used to romantic encounters personally but you'd think it'd be easier to write with all these romance novels and comics I read- 

Welp, hopefully I'll have something out this month or the next as my mental health slowly gets better. //sigh// it'd be easier if I had someone to write with me and give tips but I'm too embarrassed to ask my friends~ (ㅎㅁㅎ;) 

Anyway, see you when I have the balls to write again...

(Still alive, just on hiatus, sorry)
Jake was working at the convenience store when suddenly... one of the hottest guys from his college confesses to him? 

“Y-you don’t have to give me a reply right now, Ill see you at school tomorrow!” He rushed out with a bright red face.

“Is... is this a joke..?” Jake mumbled with a dazed look on his face.

(Slow updates)
(May be some frisky scenes in future uploads~)
