Hi! Thanks for taking the time to check this out! I honestly just wanted to see how far I could get entering WSA since I've never tried joining before ^-^ 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! On the bright side, I do have a stockpile for this story, so look forward to double daily updates for the first week and then daily updates after that! Story Development: I tried to speed up the pacing for this story (so it will be faster than most of my other ones). However, I tend to pay more attention to detail than most, so just know that most words are intended to have a deeper meaning :D Character Design: The characters aren't perfect, and their choices are sometimes questionable. However, they're designed that way to be realistic. I want them to seem human, so they won't be the perfect FL/ML that you might find somewhere else. World Background: There are lots of hidden doors waiting to be opened :D

Hi Tangerqueen! Can I just say how much I hate your male lead 😂 I truly wish I transmigrated in your story just to punish him and take poor Daphne away. Okay, on serious note, the writing skill is amazing, I see no glaring flaws. Thre plots flow smoothly and the world description is just right. The poor MC is a princess who is left alone to defend her kingdom and is forced to marry a barbarian king that completely lives up to his title if not more. Unlike most forced marriage where the chemistry between the forced parties is apparent, in this story at least the female MC is clearly repulsed by the male lead. It will be interesting to know why the male lead is so weirdly wired. I suspect abuse and neglect. On the other side he tries so hard to conceal his liking for the MC, who is, let's be honest, an absolute dear! The road to happiness is long-winded, but I hope the male lead gets some logic smacked into his head, eventually. At this point he so doesn't deserve Daphne 😡😡😡 Very much recommended for kingdom stories fans who like to read about forced marriage, awesome female MC and insufferable ML who hopefully! One day! Becomes someone who deserves to kiss the MC's boots ❤❤❤

Author's Review 2.0 TLDR: Slowburn Strong and clever FL (from the start, Daphne's goal is clear... she wants to kill the Northern King --> seeing how hot and handsome he may be does not change that) Possessive ML with a dark past (he knows that her "love" is a trap, but he can't stop himself from jumping in) No glorification of r*pe or abuse --- I wanted to make clear that this will not be a novel where the FL immediately falls heads over heels for a ML who destroyed her kingdom and hurt her. If you are looking for a quick romance under the guise of princesses and demons, this story will not satisfy those expectations. Daphne will slowly understand the Northern King's dark past and discover what turned him into the demon he is today. But this pity does not necessarily directly translate into love. At the same time, just because the Northern King falls in love with Daphne does not justify the horrible actions he has already committed, and they are both aware of that. Possessiveness is not healthy for a relationship, and you are your own best savior. Love can complete and mend your life, but it cannot be your entire life. That is the purpose of this story, so if you are looking for a tale where romance is 100% of the chapters, please do not be disappointed when you find that it is not (a large part is exploring the danger of stereotypes and misunderstandings, tensions between kingdoms, and the sadness of court intrigues) Quoting Daphne: “Since you were truthful to me, I wanted to be honest with you as well. If you were hoping I would suddenly forgive you and love you after today, I don’t think I ever will be able to. No matter what you do, you will never be able to conquer me. You may break my physical body with force, but you will never ever own and possess my mind.” (Chapter 45) --- I just wanted to say thank you so much for anyone who has supported me so far. I've never finished a story here on Webnovel before, but I swear I will do everything to make this my first. A comment or vote really goes a long way, and they really do brighten up my day.

Okay hear me out, this story is really nice. I'm not sure if it was because I enjoy this genre or because of how the author introduces each character, but I was intrigued from the first chapter. I'm in love with Daphne! Also, the author's description of each scenario deserves special praise; it was so comprehensive that you could almost see what was unfolding. You really should keep writing!!! <333

While I haven't finished reading all the chapters yet, I believe this book deserves a review. Author writes in a very engaging way. The interactions between the Northern King and Eversun Princess are enthralling and intriguing. I'm really interested to find out what good secret is. I feel like there's something secret hidden behind that heartless chest👀 Not often I find a FL book that catches my attention with all the small, well done details and tiny actions that help develop the characters and make one not want to stop reading the book.

Discord: https://discord.gg/vrdTSkj8Va Author Notes: This is my third book, going to take what I learned from before to improve. This book will be focusing on plot, action, depths of character bonds and overall a darker tone/take on this cruel fantasy world I've cooked up for this book! If you give this book a try, I hope you enjoy! A very different experience and tone to Nanomancer Reborn.

The Crown's Seduction

[Warning: r18+/strong mature content] He is her salvation. She, his demise. Yet, he refuses to let her go… Mineah, the youngest Princess of Ebodia, was cursed at birth to remain untainted and bring misfortune to those around her. This prophecy looms over her like a dark cloud, growing bigger every year it does not come to pass. She exists in hushed rumors as a pitiful figure - fragile, meek, unwanted. Underneath that mask is a strong and feisty vixen worthy of being a queen. And this would-be queen has set her eyes on breaking her curse, even if that means tricking the most cunning vampire ever born. Nikolai, though reclusive and enigmatic, is revered by the Kingdom of Valcrez as a wise and powerful ruler. Unbeknownst to his loyal subjects, his image of perfection is a web of lies that if exposed can send their kingdom and everything they hold dear crumbling beneath their feet. When these two find their paths crossed in a marriage alliance, the game of Crown's Seduction begins. But just who is the hunter and who is the prey? ******** Excerpt: “Why are you stripping naked in front of me?” she questioned with a frown, doing little to hide the irritation in her voice. Her goal was to capture only his heart, not his whole body! “Am I not allowed to have a bath with my wife?” he remarked with a cold tone. “I purposely asked for a big tub to just make sure that the two of us will fit in it together.” She sighed, not tearing her gaze away from him as she regained her composure. Seeing him smirk she forced herself to get comfortable as he spoke. “That’s more like it. You said it yourself that no one forced you into marrying me. Instead, you offered and volunteered yourself willingly for it, so I expect that you’ll be confident enough to share a bath with your husband,” Nikolai confidently stated. “After all, we’ll do more than this soon enough.” Shameless… Preventing herself from rolling her eyes, she managed to give him a smile as she said, “Don’t blame me if you die on me then.” **** Note: Volume 1: Main Story Status - Completed (Chapters 1 to 403) Volume 2: Side Story Status - Completed (Chapters 404 to 472) Volume 3: Side Story Status - Completed (Chapters 473 to 491) **** PS: Commissioned Book Cover owned by the Author!

Will Zara fight the dangers that await or embrace her true destiny? **EXCERPT** "I... didn't want to be late for work. You seemed busy, so I thought I'd get a head start." Snow raised an eyebrow. "Really? Or is it because last night affected you so much that you couldn't stand being around me?" "Don't flatter yourself, Snow. You didn't affect me at all." He smirked, stepping closer. "Is that so?" His fingers brushed my chin, tilting my face up. My pulse quickened. "We're at work," I snapped, swatting his hand away. "This isn't professional." "You're my wife," he murmured. "You're supposed to obey me at all times." I bit back a retort, a hint of rebellion flaring within. Slowly, I stepped closer, letting my fingers graze his chest. His smirk wavered for a second when his wolf reacted and Snow bit his lips. "Careful, Boss," I purred seductively. "Don't hurt those lips. I'm sure plenty of girls would love to kiss them." Snow leaned down, his lips brushing my ear. "And you? Are you dying for a taste?" Caught off guard, I hesitated, then regained my composure as I looked him in the eyes. "Unlike other girls, I have strong resistance against—" I didn't get a chance to finish when Snow's lips crashed onto mine with a fierce kiss that left me breathless. *************** MATURE CONTENT Participating in the Viral Book Call Contest.
