Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot

When they first met, Tang Wan sighed, “The fifth young master of the Jiang family is just as the rumors said. He’s celibate, aloof, prideful, and is a man to be revered. Unfortunately, he’s so smart that he no longer has any will to live, which made him sickly, and he’s going to die soon… Later on, the fifth young master brought her into his room. When she came out, everyone stared at her in shock. Why was she crying? …… Later on, it was said that the fifth young master returned after he recovered from his illness, and he brought a girl back. She appeared pure and harmless, but underneath that harmless appearance, she was actually a spitfire that offended quite a number of people. But the fifth young master just said, “I brought her back, so I’ll let her do whatever she wants. If… anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.” His best friend gave him a reminder. “You’re going to be responsible for someone from the Tang family?” “Since she came back with me, she’s mine. She’s just a young girl and is spoilt. I have to take responsibility.” After Tang Wan married into the Jiang family, she only had one mission. She must give birth to his children before he died! Meanwhile, the fifth young master was puzzled. “You’re a gentle and shy girl during the day, so why are you so different during the night?” Tang Wan thought. ‘I have to make every second count. He won’t be able to live long.’ After she gave birth to his son and he became one year old, Tang Wan was prepared to become a widow. However… ‘Why isn’t he dead yet?’ Much later, the fifth master of the Jiang family asked her, “I heard that you’ve been looking for my death every day. Do you want to kill me by sucking me dry?”

Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

"Kiss me, Cole," I begged, my head sinking back into the seat. "I…" He leaned in just a little, his lips close enough for me to taste his breath, but then he stopped. "Not now, Mia," he said with that smug voice. His hand trailed lower, gliding over my belly, fingers slipping under the waistband of my trousers. He didn't even hesitate—his fingers dipped lower, brushing over the wetness soaking through my panties. "Damn," he groaned in my ear. "You're fucking soaked."

There are spaces for the grammar improvement, but the setting seems grand and interesting. I am touched by the romance, love and trust between Joyce and Alex. Alex is kind like a perfect boyfriend and partner. This novel is not a cliche billionaire or CEO or Mafia boss plotting. It is a proper well elaborated novel based on magic background. Although Joyce indeed is a prince, but the novel is more about Joyce's self-grow, training, and adventures with his knight. Keep up writer, [img=update][img=update][img=recommend][img=recommend]

After hugging someone's thigh, I went crazy in the survival variety show

[Shuang Jie, 1v1, Redemption, Giant Pet] Yun Xianghuan, the pitiful little girl who had been disfigured by the fate of being taken away by the book and the daughter. In order to defy the heavens and change his fate, he had staked everything on participating in a wilderness live broadcast variety show with the lowest survival rate in the world. She had thin arms and legs, and her chin was thin. One look and one could tell that she was malnourished and weak. Everyone unanimously thought that Yun Xianghuan was a cannon fodder who had eaten a box lunch on the first day. Even Yun Xianghuan felt the same way. However…banana leaves, bamboos, hatchets, fat fish…When these urgently needed supplies suddenly appeared in front of Yun Xianghuan, the atmosphere gradually became strange. Yun Xianghuan was speechless. Could it be that she had magic that could grant her wishes? Until one day, Yun Xianghuan suddenly bumped into a big black panther with wings, carefully placing a bunch of grapes in front of her house… Yun Xianghuan was speechless. Ah…Help! She…she seemed to be pampered by the Beast Deity! As time passed, Yun Xianghuan developed a strong affection for the big black panther. Yun Xianghuan pinched the little meat on her stomach and looked at her fair and chubby self. Not only was she not happy, but she was also crying her heart out. This was because the Leopard Lord's gaze on her had become more and more strange recently… As expected, she knew that the big black panther would not treat her well for no reason. It must have treated her as storage food. Now that she was well, she would definitely be eaten. Yun Xianghuan gritted her teeth and reached out her hand." You…you can eat me now!" Wuwuwu…" When a certain leopard heard this, he immediately transformed into a living person. He pulled his tie and approached. His eyes were filled with smiles. "QAQ!"
