After painstakingly growing up into a beautiful and graceful lady, nobody came to propose to her.

Synopsis
Princess Serene who belonged to Fae Realm had her life taken a 180-degree turn when she decided to join an institute full of vampires, werewolves, and witches. Being of Fae's kind, she attracted love and hatred from these creatures. But, the person who captured her heart was none of these three beings but an entirely different being.....
Her world was basically divided into six realms: Fae (where fairies dwelled)
Haxum (where witches and warlocks lived)
Lycanus ( abode of werewolves)
Wampir (where vampires were settled)
Folkshel (where common or non-magical people lived)
Dark ( where all kinds of mythical creatures and monsters lurked)
Centuries ago her forefathers formed an alliance to deal with the threats posed by the Dark Realm. It was a horrid place where all kinds of mythical creatures and monsters lurked. They kept invading other realms so it was barricaded using a powerful boundary spell.
But, after about 5 centuries of peace something evil was rising in the dark realm and everything in our world was about to change...

Excerpt
So, that's what you believe? That your existence pains me? And that you are using me? Tell me, did you ever ask me to do something for you?" His voice seemed to be on the edge of being hurtful.
I didn't know what to say to him and seemed tongue-tied. That feeling of hopelessness when you want to do something but you can't creep up on me.
"You spoke with each other, determined my fate and decided whom I was supposed to love. At least let me choose the person I want to love. Have I asked you to love me back?"
His words hit me like a tornado shattering my heart into millions of pieces. I couldn't understand why he wanted an unrequited love so much, which would only bring him heartbreak, over and over again.
"Answer me, please." His tone was playing on the border of hurt and endurance.
"No....you didn't." These were the only three words I could say to him, I wanted to say so much more but my whole body was trembling and my heart was racing so fast right now. I knew he could hear it.
"Then let me be Serene, please let me be. You don't want me to bother you? I won't. I already keep my distance as you made that abundantly clear the last time. But, please don't take my will. Let me decide whom I want to love. And, one last thing: your existence is not a source of pain for me. Don't ever think like that again and stop letting others put words into your mouth."
With these words, his gaze held mine for a brief moment. The agony in his eyes was indescribable, and then he swiftly turned around and left.

Excerpt
She was in deep thoughts when she heard shuffling sounds and her head quickly snapped to the direction of the man. He was on his feet now, his gaze not leaving them.
Charlotte and Aurora both scampered back in fear. He stared at them for some few seconds and wordlessly turned and walked towards the door.
Aurora's eyes widened a bit. Wait, was it...was it over? Had he agreed to her mother's pleas? Was he going to leave them alone now?
She was about to breathe when she heard a deep, gruff voice.
"Get the girl."

It was completely by accident that Su Li got pregnant. No one knew who the children's father was, not even herself.
The neighbours' gossip and the pervasive online jokes about the sextuplets made her a laughing stock overnight. Su Li fled to another village and returned with her six children five years later.
However, just as she was struggling to raise her children, a mysterious man approached her and claimed to be the father of the sextuplets.
"Woman, tell me honestly, who have you seduced these past four years?"
By chance, she found out that the father of her children was the most powerful man in the capital. He was decisive and cold-blooded, yet he doted on her so much—the only one he treated in such a manner.
The sextuplets were all geniuses, each more outstanding than the last.
The eldest son, "I want to study hard and buy a big villa for Mom in the future! Because our neighbor, Auntie Zhang, always brags that her son bought her a big villa!"
The second child, "I want to be a singer and sing for Mom every day in the future, because Mom laughs very happily every time she hears that song!"
The third child, "I want to learn how to cook well. In the future, I'm going to cook delicious food for Mom everyday. How dare Auntie Gu always say that Mom can't afford to eat in high-class restaurants."
…
The sixth child, "I want to join a triad. If anyone dares to bully Mom in the future, I'll kill them!"
Su Li looked worried. "Children, don't let your thoughts run wild. Study hard, and improve yourselves every day, alright!"
The story follows Lena as she commands a squad of drones called the 86
The Republic of San Magnolia.
For a long time, this country has been besieged by its neighbor, the Giadian Empire, which created a series of unmanned drones called the Legion. After years of painstaking research, the Republic finally developed autonomous drones of their own, turning the one-sided struggle into a war without casualties - or at least, that's what the government claims. In truth, there is no such thing as a bloodless war. Beyond the fortified walls protecting the eighty-five Republic territories lies the "nonexistent" Eighty-Sixth Sector. The young men
and women of this forsaken land are branded the Eighty-Six and, stripped of their humanity, pilot the "unmanned" weapons into battle. Shinn directs the actions of a detachment of the young Eighty-Sixers' squad known as the "Spearhead" while on the battlefield. Lena is a "handler" who commands the detachment from the remote rear with the help of special communication. The farewell story of the severe and sad struggle of these two begins!
