Luo Huian was the most beautiful, strong and narcissistic——- Cut! Cut! Cut! Take two, and do it over.
Luo Huian was the most beautiful, strong and wisest immortal in the realm of peace and harmony.
Her two fathers doted on her, and she had a generous supply of resources and pills.
Her life was perfect.
However, her perfect life came to an abrupt end when Luo Huian, an immortal whose responsibility was to bring peace to those who had reached their ends and had run out of faith——
Watched a man jump down a building.
Because of her inflexible beliefs and sense of justice, she did not save the bully. Unfortunately, that man was the son of the heavens.
The loss of his life brought infinite trouble in Luo Huian’s life and she was punished by the heavens.
She was sent to the world of humans where she had to rescue at least five hundred people by saving their lives when they were at the end of their wits.
For an immortal this was an easy job, right? Wrong.
Her grandmother sent Luo Huian to a world where Gloom Rocks had wrecked chaos. Beasts and monsters were given birth to by the Gloom Rocks that sucked every ounce of happiness from humans.
This world was dominated by hunters who could kill the beasts with the powers that they had awakened.
And in this cutthroat world, Luo Huian got the short end of the stick. She woke up in the body of an F-class hunter!
Dang it.
If that wasn’t worse enough, the previous owner had confessed to her cousin-in-law and was kicked out of the family.
Double frog in the hot crock.
With not a single penny in her pocket Luo Huian goes out to complete her mission.
But what would happen when Luo Huian who was an F-class hunter annihilated the Z-class Glooms and Hollows that even the S-class hunters could not?
Watch her fend against the dangers and at the same time save the lives of people. But in this small mission, there is a small obstruction ——
The three alluring temptations.
***********
Resisting the temptation take 1:
“MMPH,” Luo Huian pushed against the mer who had pushed her down on the bed while sitting on her waist. “Get off.”
“I can’t,” answered Qi Yongrui as he took off his shirt. “Daddy Shun said that he is envious of Uncle Wang. He also wants to hold a grandchild. So, wife let's work hard tonight alright?”
Luo Huian: Dear Heavens save me, I am a woman of no desire!
****
Resisting the temptation take 2:
“Do you think he is good looking?” Fan Meilin questioned the woman who stood next to him.
Even though he was the one who won the race and the trophy, his wife was looking at the other mer.
“Well yes,” Luo Huian, who was an appreciator of beauty, agreed at once. “Why are you asking this though?”
Fan Meilin’s eyes flashed as he smiled at her and leaned in closer to her body as he whispered in her ear, “He might be good looking but I am a better driver. Not only on the track but also in bed, do you want to try darling?”
Luo Huian: Resist the temptation! At all costs! I am an iron-hearted woman.
*****
Resisting the temptation take 3:
“Is this necessary?” Luo Huian questioned as she sat on the couch, watching the mer trace his fingers on her curves while she sat in nothing but modern swimwear.
The mer nodded as he wrote on his small notepad, “I need to trace every inch of your skin to create my finest creation, so don’t move.” After he finished writing, he handed the notepad to Luo Huian, his fingers brushing against the curve of her bosom, waist and ———
Luo Huian: My virtue is at extreme risk!

Fl who is trying to do everything to save her virtue from being taken as it would slow down her cultivation X Mls who are trying their best to snatch it from her.
***********
Trigger warning: though the book is set in a comedic setting, there might be some uneasy topics that would discuss depression and loneliness.
***********
“What the fuck? What is going on? Have I completely lost it?”
As I stare panicky at the dot unable to decide what to do, the white dot disappears and a line of text appears in its place.
[Installing files. 1% done…]
As I watch the text in shock, the percentage gradually increases. […2%...3%...4%...]
I move to the living room in a zombie-like manner, too shocked to think clearly and lie down on the couch.
“Something is wrong with me; I think I finally lost my sanity…”
[…12%...13%...14%...]
Unable to affect the situation in the least, I stare dejectedly at the percentage increase, while my mind starts exploring the possible explanations. In the end, as the percentage hits 90%, I narrow it down to three possibilities.
The first possibility is that I am in fact still unconscious and this is all a product of my mind. I pinch myself and whimper at the pain, as in my nervousness I used almost all my strength.
Nope, the first is out.
The second possibility is that I have completely lost my mind and am suffering from delusions. Hmm, I cannot exclude this, but while possible, I don’t think that this is it. The only thing out of the ordinary is that fucking line of text.
The third possibility …
[Installation successful!]
The text disappears and a new message appears in my eyes…
The third possibility … is that I gained a system. I read the message with my mouth agape at the implications.
[Welcome user, to the Perverted Daddy System!]
Fuck…

Amelia has slaved her whole life, working multiple jobs to help support her poor husband Caleb― only to discover he is a millionaire!
When confronted, Caleb feels no guilt. He divorces her immediately to pursue his true love, leaving her with nothing to her name.
“Kelsie is the woman that I love, the woman who truly deserves to be by my side,” Caleb said. “Now, sign the papers and I can end this farce of a marriage.”
But thankfully, fate has yet to close all its doors on her.
The messy breakup has led Amelia to meet the elusive Matteo Montgomery, the mysterious owner of X’el International Inc., and even though Amelia could have sworn that this is the first time they have ever met, Matteo seemed to hold more interest in her than ordinary.
With her divorce finalized, Matteo’s courtship quickly grows more extravagant. He offers her everything, from a job as his secretary, a new penthouse apartment, and a permanent home in his heart.
But just as Amelia’s heart begins to open up to Matteo’s sincerity, Caleb comes crawling back, determined to ruin her life.
***
【Excerpt】
“Oh?” Matteo asked, and Amelia caught a hint of amusement in his voice. “Then pray tell, what did we converse about?”
Amelia swallowed. Good heavens, he was so close. She could barely even breathe, afraid that every movement she made would just amplify how loud her heartbeat was. It was racing like a bullet train at this point, and she felt it clog at her throat, refusing her a chance to speak.
“I… I…I―”
“I have no girlfriend, Amelia,” Matteo said. “And before you overthink, I do not have a wife in secret either.”
His fingers didn’t let go of her wrist, and instead, it even tightened its grip. It wasn’t painful in the slightest, but it sent surges of electricity rushing through her body as though she had been struck by lightning in the most thrilling of ways.
A coy smile curved his lips, and he leaned in just the slightest. His lips were now a hair’s breadth away from hers, and Amelia instinctively held her breath.
“Unless, perhaps you would like to volunteer?”
He put one hand on the door beside her head before leaning forward. What was he doing? Trying to intimidate her again?
“Truth is…” He began to speak in a low voice and she strained her ears but all she could hear was her heartbeat. “I hate when you touch me because I like it so much.”
Her eyes widened in surprise and he leaned even closer before continuing to speak.
“I also hate the way you smell…” she could hear him inhale her scent “You smell delicious. And I hate your hair because it’s tempting. I want to run my fingers through it, pull it gently while I taste your lips and bite your neck.”
Angelica suddenly felt like there was no air left in the room.
“Your touch makes me unable to resist doing those things and all the other things I want to do to you.”
“Oth...other things.” She breathed not realizing she was thinking loudly.
One side of his lips curved into a smile.
“Imagine all the things a man would want to do to you. I want to do those things and much more.” He leaned closer bringing his lips next to her ear. “Because I am no man. I am a beast. A hungry one. So unless you want me to bite you, refrain from touching me.”
****************
A woman alone in a man’s world.
In a time and place where it’s difficult for a woman to live alone, protect and provide for herself, Angelica must find a provider and a protector after her father is accused of being a traitor and executed by the king. Now known as a traitor's daughter, she must survive in a cruel world ruled by men, and in order to do so she ends up seeking protection in a man feared by everyone. A man with many scars. Both physically and mentally.
A man punished for his pride.
Rayven is a man with many scars. They cover his face and punish his soul. He can never show himself without people recoiling at the sight of him. Except for one woman who willingly comes knocking on his door. Is she an additional punishment sent to him, or will she be his salvation?

Rowan sees beauty in death. The Order he has sworn to obey only sees defilement.
As the reviled Caretaker of the Order, Rowan has accepted his role as a dutiful outcast because he believes it is the only way to prove his worth to the man who holds his sisters’ souls as collateral.
With his magic and his voice, Rowan can absorb death and transform it, but only in ways the Order deems acceptable to maintain the stability of the reality it claims to protect
Order must subdue Disorder. Reality must triumph over illusion. He is tainted and always will be.
Rowan has never questioned those lessons, but that changes the night he harvests a crimson soul that is more than human and chooses to keep it a secret.
When Rowan’s song transforms that soul into a beautiful and mysterious man he names Wren, he is forced to accept that sometimes duty is a lie and illusion is the only thing you can trust.
As the fabric of the Order begins to unwind and a new kind of Disorder takes hold, Rowan will need to choose again, stand with the Order that held him down, or forge a new path with Wren at his side.
He may be the only one who can restore balance to the worlds, but only if he can find balance within himself first.

Updates 3-4 times per week.
Note: This story focuses on relationships. I promise an epic romance, lots of swoon-worthy moments, and a healthy amount of fluff.
When it does get steamy…you might get burned. Fair warning for explicit content. I don’t shy away from my spice.
There are lots of side characters and couples to fall in love with, in addition to the main couple. If you love the idea of found family, you will be happy.
This book is set in a non-heteronormative world, so you will see various gender identities/expressions and types of love.
*************************************
Excerpt (if you want the full steamy version, you will have to read the book!):
Still reeling from the new magic that coursed under his skin and unsure of how to react to the desire that threatened to take control of him, Rowan froze.
Wren's hot breath against his mouth sent a jolt of pleasure through his body, and he choked back a groan.
A different kind of panic flared in Rowan's chest, burning him as if he were the one on fire. This was what he wanted, what he'd thought about every night since Wren left.
But wanting more was one thing. Acting on it was another.
He'd spent so much of his life hiding, he didn't know how to do anything else.
One corner of Wren's mouth twitched as Rowan pulled away. When he attempted to free himself from Wren's grasp, Wren just hauled him closer.
Rowan liked that he didn't have to think about what to do next. His bare chest thudded against Wren's torso, and the heat from Wren's body merged with Rowan's skin, melting him from the inside out.
"What did you just do to me?" Wren's deep voice vibrated against Rowan's chest.
"The Disorder of your illusion was holding you captive. I…I absorbed it."
"Oh? Where did you learn to do that? Have I been gone that long?" Wren's grip loosened slightly on Rowan's wrists as if he was satisfied now that Rowan was practically sitting on top him.
Rowan stared at Wren's lips. He opened his mouth to protest, but immediately closed it again.
"I know you aren't going to say that I shouldn't touch you." Wren's free hand splayed over the small of Rowan's back. "Not when you started it."
Rowan's breath hitched. "No. I'm not going to say that anymore. Not to you."
"I thought you were afraid to be touched." Wren's fingers traced a circle over the curve of Rowan's spine as if testing for a reaction.
"I know that I'm not afraid of you." Rowan waited for the panic to set in, but all he felt was desire. "With you, I want…"
"You want what?"
"I want more."
Triumph flared in Wren's gaze before he narrowed his eyes. "Really? Then why are you still trying to get away from me?"
When the Wild Beast is Trapped in the Nightmare Cycle (BL)
After being confined in a mental asylum for years, Jin Jiuchi had just been released back to human habitation when he suddenly found himself trapped in a dangerous and thrilling survival game.
Wait, is there something wrong with you all? Why do you look so scared? This world is so… exciting!
For Jin Jiuchi, this beast in human clothing who was chained by society laws, the appearance of the Nightmare Cycle was akin to a dream come true!
Drinking tea with a dismembered bride in a haunted apartment, dancing tango with the evil spirit in the depths of suicide forest, skipping rope with the ancient god in a forgotten civilization…
Jin Jiuchi was so happy that he was going crazy! However, when he went crazy, all the players and NPCs in the cycle trembled in fear.
***
There was only a beautiful jade doll who had never been afraid of him.
Shen Nianzu called out softly, "Jin-ge."
Jin Jiuchi, who was happily digging through a rotten corpse's stomach, suddenly dropped everything and zoomed in front of Shen Nianzu with a speed invisible to naked eyes. His eyes were curved into crescents as he asked, "What's wrong, Nian'er? Do you want to join me too?"
Shen Nianzu was expressionless as he stared at the bloody man in front of him. Then he suddenly stretched out a hand, palm up. Confused, Jin Jiuchi placed his dirty paw in Shen Nianzu's hand and shook it.
Shen Nianzu: “Good boy.”
Jin Jiuchi: ?

A struggle to restore peace upon the world, dotted with forbidden romance between a vampire and a human being.
This story takes place in futuristic England where human beings, vampires, and werewolves co-existed on earth.
Aiden Thompson was just a regular human being who was trying to live his life as quietly as possible without any entanglements with the two superior races.
He had long forgotten a night twelve years ago, when he met a vampire and saved his life. Ryan Caldwell, the vampire, vowed to pick him up when he reached the age of eighteen.
Meanwhile, his grandmother's sickness led Aiden to the muddy, illegal world of blood transactions, where desperate human beings resorted to selling their precious, young blood for a huge sum of money.
And Ryan Caldwell.
The vampire had not forgotten his promise, but how come the person he accepted into his family was none other than Alain, Aiden's half-brother instead?
To make matters even worse, a new race emerged and threatened the facade of peace among the three races that populated the world.
It was by then too late for Aiden to withdraw from the center of the conflicts...
--------------------------
"Mr. Caldwell, please don't make me repeat myself," Aiden interjected. "It was my own fault. I... I just want to forget everything. Please stop reminding me of... of what happened last night."
Aiden grabbed into his quilt. He pressed his lips together and furrowed his brows in indignation.
He did not want to think about it.
He did not want to remember it.
He wanted time to make him forget, and heal the terrible heartache that plagued him.
Ryan heaved a sigh.
"Aiden, it was not your fault. We... I..."
And yet, the young man did not allow him to explain.
"There is no 'we'," Aiden corrected the vampire opposite him.
The young man lifted his head and glared at Ryan.
"I don't like men. Do you...?"
"..."

Su Qianqian, a kindergarten student, was unexpectedly chosen.
When Su Yang learned that his daughter was going to enter the dungeon world, he reminded her, "Don't play for too long. Come home on time for dinner."
Play? Did he think the dungeon world, which was like a human purgatory, was a playground?
Just when people all thought Su Qianqian was done for, they were surprised to find out she was really just playing around.
In various dungeon worlds, the divine beast Qilin served as her mount, a legendary demon lord begged to be her full-time nanny, a giant monster acted as her bodyguard, and flower fairy and ghost queen Xiaoqian even wanted to be her stepmother.

Sloth
noun
-reluctance to work or make an effort; laziness.
A lazy and casual life.
That was the only thing that Lyca Huang wanted after transmigrating into the body of a rich young miss. Tired of schemes and killing, the lazy elite assassin vowed to enjoy her second life and live a life of luxury while lazing around and bossing over her servants.
With her doting mother and loving father, Lyca thought that she could easily achieve this goal. Oh boy was she wrong... so wrong.
Who would have thought that her prominent grandfather would introduce her as the heiress to his security empire?
How could her lazy ass manage a conglomerate? She wanted to protest! She must decline the offer in front of the whole Huang Family!
However, at the time of the announcement she was so busy eating her freshly peeled grapes and could not find the time to just open her mouth to speak. Second, she was too lazy to argue or create a strain of conversation with anyone else at the party.
In the end, Lyca nodded at her grandfather’s words as she continued eating. Sometimes… food was more important than pointless arguments, ah.
Moreover an heiress sounded really interesting. That only meant... more food and servants, right?
……………………….
“Oi, Shen Qui, do you like me?” she leaned towards him, showing a little bit of her chest that was covered by her thin robe. She smiled and batted her eyelids.
“No,” he answered, his face stern. “That will never happen.”
“Good!” The smile on her face disappeared as she nodded, satisfied at the lack of emotion in his face. “Then… marry me.”
…………………………
"You stayed in your room for three days," he stated.
"So?"
"Without going out."
"Hm," she nodded.
"You just slept and ate all day."
"And?"
"Well… that's not very healthy, is it?" His lips curved into a wry smile.
"No. Not healthy."
"I don't want to become a widower at twenty-five."
Lyca's eyebrow lifted. "Are you cursing me?" She fought the urge to laugh. What widower? This man's honesty is sometimes infuriating. "I am tired," she said.
"From doing nothing?"
She nodded. "I am saving energy."
"To do nothing?"
She looked at him and didn't miss the concern in his eyes. "To do you." She uttered and immediately laughed when she saw his face reddened.
.........................................
One lazy heiress.
One hardworking illegitimate soldier.
Two opposite worlds.
Two different goals.

Sin of Sloth: Lazily Yours
Angelo Verde is a spy who investigates the Mafia's underground business. In the middle of an undercover operation, some unavoidable events leave him no choice but to serve Marvel Yerevan, the Mafia crime boss of one formidable Family.
The taste of horrible and peculiar experiences in the underworld does not stop him from stepping deeper into the Mafia's territory, all to gain Marvel's trust. Ready to submit, even become a plaything, he will act subservient while secretly taking advantage of his position for the investigation to complete the tasks he is given.
But, can he win the mission when he has never been victorious over a personal battle with the boss?
EXCERPT I:
"Sir, I think you need to change your clothes, or else you will catch a cold."
I suggested Marvel, using his half-wet suit of rain as an excuse to get to know him better.
The man in front of me was so tall and well-built, his physique exposed both strength and beauty. It wasn't out of curiosity that I patted his shoulder to sweep the wet dots away, but I wanted to create a connection with him.
"If you don't mind, let me help you," I smiled. "It's my responsibility to take care of your health and serve you, so let's go to your room and change-"
The coldness of fingers touching my cheek startled me, freezing up the rest of my words. Before I could develop a reaction, the artistic form of a man had turned blurry above my dilated eyes when Marvel reduced our distance. Seizing up the air I meant to breathe in, his lips contrived a way to communicate with mine without the need for words.
I always asked myself, what should I do to get closer to Marvel, to step into his territory, to make him trust me?
I think I know now.
EXCERPT II:
"It isn't that hard," Marvel convinced me, sure of it. His knuckles slithered above my cheek. "All you have to do is put it inside your mouth and just let it slide above your tongue."
His words were followed by a gesture of his thumb teasing my lips until I felt it in between my teeth. Demanding access, it started to push in deeper, stroking my tongue without any sign of reluctance. When his eyes slightly narrowed to hold a smile, the steel blue marbles glimmered, and I couldn't tear my gaze away from this handsome gent in front of me.
"You can do it, right?"
At first, I wanted to pretend I didn't understand what Marvel was talking about, but my attempt to be indifferent might not work against someone with a character like his, knowing how much power he had, and I realized what his true intention was.
I forced my mouth to open, only later did I know that those simple words would change my fate completely.
"Yes, Sir."
In the land of magic and beasts, Sylvia was betrayed by her family and sold off as a slave. She was expecting the worst, but fortunately, it was a handsome prince who had ‘bought’ her! Who doesn’t love a charming, benevolent, and kind prince, not to mention ridiculously handsome?
But, little did Sylvia know that the charming handsome prince was no angel but rather a devil in disguise!
The calm, kind and good-hearted Sylvia found herself slowly changing under the devil's influence but worst of all, she found herself becoming more and more addicted to the two-faced devil who harbored dark and dangerous secrets.
But could she ever fully trust the shameless devil? Or was he just one of the many who desired her hidden powers? Let the games begin!
.......................
Excerpt:
"Are you getting ready for your engagement, my sweet kitten?" The devil's familiar voice drawled, making Sylvia's entire body tingle with an unfathomable need.
She gazed into his dark coal black eyes, lost within them, as he rubbed her lips with his thumb. This man... This man in front of her alone had the power to make her knees weak and her heart crumble.
"Heh. Being silent, are we?" The devil chuckled, his hand moving away from her lips to the back of her head. He clutched a handful of her soft silver hair and pulled her closer to him, capturing her lips with his.
Sylvia snapped out of her trance and commanded her body to push the devil away but her traitorous body only yearned for him more and she wrapped her hands around his neck instead.
The devil's lips curved upwards, his grin widening in satisfaction. His hand then moved down to her gorgeous engagement gown laced with diamonds and rubies which came undone as soon as he touched.
The laces, the veil, the flowers, the jewelry, everything was ripped to shreds, leaving behind only herself. An entire morning spent on getting ready and dressing up gone to waste just like that!
"You!" Sylvia glared at the shameless devil angrily. She had given him an inch but he went for the mile!
She pushed him away with all the force that she could muster, pinning him against the wall, imprisoning his rude mannerless hands.
"Heh? Why are you angry, my darling? Aren't I helping you? Why waste your time attending the meaningless engagement, when you already know that you belong to me and me alone?"
"Go to hell! Who said I belong to you! I belong to no one."
"Is that so?" The devil leaned forward, gently knocking his forehead with hers. "Shall I leave then...?" He whispered, his warm breath caressing her cheeks.
Sylvia's face instantly reddened as she couldn't resist the devil's sweet temptations anymore...
She gave into the man's wicked allure and pressed her lips over his, stopping his mouth from taunting her and teasing her any further.

"I'll marry you if you promise to kiss me every day."
On the harrowing day she lost her family, out of all the men she knew, Marcella didn't expect those words from "Sweet Baby" Tony. She thought he was not interested in her.
She had to ask him for the marriage as she wanted to fulfil her sister's last wishes.
She got married the day she suffered a horrifying loss.
Don DeAngelo's youngest daughter became the wife of Antony Crawford.
She didn't wait to think why he wanted to marry her when every men she knew wanted her for who her father was. She trusted him that much.
But in a day, she learned that Tony was not so different from other men.
What choice can she make?
She can throw away the marriage and lose custody of her nephew, or...
She chose to be married to him. Their marriage can be a deal. She needed him, he needed her. It's all fine.
Except...
What does Tony feel? Is their marriage all but a business transaction for him? What is the secret he is hiding? Why can't he reveal it to her?

*Excerpt*
"We are each our own devil, and we make this world our hell," she said looking into his eyes. The alluring mystique behind those blue eyes made her heart skip a beat.
How can she hate and love someone this much? She must be missing a part of her brain.
In the silence of the dining room, the candle flickered. The curve of his lips widened and in the romantic ambiance, the thin lines around his eyes gave her a thrill.
"Quoting Oscar Wilde?" he chuckled comfortably, leaning forward.
"Isn't that true in our case?" she asked.
She observed him, trying to digest every single expression on his face.
He went silent. His lips pressed to a line. His pensive eyes never left hers except for the few seconds when he placed down his cutleries. She still couldn't guess what goes on in that smart brain of his.
It is this, she thought. I am a decently adventurous person. He's an adventure. Maybe that's his allure!
"Then, Birdie," he stood up and walked to her.
Marcella's back got stiff as she tried to figure out what he was going to do.
Also, is that a pet name? Birdie? It's nice. But that came out of nowhere...
She followed him with his eyes. He kneeled beside her and held her hand. Only when she felt the warmth of his big hand on hers did she realize that she had been holding her breath for a while.
This man is going to be the end of her. It sucks when he does not feel even half of what she feels.
"Let's be angels," he kissed her hand. With a smooth smile that reached his eyes, he looked at her. "Let's be each other's angels, and let's make this world our heaven."
"You are..."
Unable to find any words to say to him, she buried her face in her hand. Her chest was heaving as if she ran a marathon.
This man surely is going to be the end of her.
"What?" he chuckled while teasing her to show her face. "What am I?"
"You're a brute, Mr. Crawford. That's what you are," she said trying to hold her stoic expression to relay her "disapproval" of his methods. But in front of his goofy smile, she lost.
She lost, and she didn't feel defeated.
She felt delighted in his presence.
"Mark my words, Birdie. I am taking you to the White House," he said.
Marcella opened her mouth to speak but no words came out. The determination shining in his eyes...
He's not talking about a visit to the White House, is he?
No way! No f*cking way!
Her eyes widened. But he was smiling sweetly as always. He stood up and leaned to her ear.
"Let's have today's kiss on the bed," he said.
Before she could form a resistance, he picked her up and walked up the stairs.
Again, Marcell pondered the one question she's been asking a lot lately.
Whom did I marry?

‘You are not my craving my dear, you are my obsession.’
“ She was our light and we were her darkness—- and just like every opposites we were obsessed with the idea of having her.”
The Evil Empress, the one whose life was filled with debauchery and betrayal to her mates was supposed to die tonight. Being the Empress of the Dragniere Empire and the mother to all dragons, she was supposed to live a life where she lived for her people and the country, her exquisite powers were alone enough to make her the ruler of the entire continent and with her face that was as beautiful as a shining pearl in the moonlight, with hair as fine as Pima, and her curves so luscious that any man would have died of desire with just one glimpse.
With powers that were beyond humans, shrouded with the air of aristocracy and with a personality that was as cruel as Medusa, The Evil Empress continued to rule over the people of her Empire with her tyranny.
Brianna Cage, nicknamed ‘ Bree, The hellion’ for the convenience of her acquaintances was a rowdy young woman. She had a fierce sense of justice, she was dependable and despite not being the most beautiful woman in her department, she was sought out by a lot of men because of her alluring nature, she rejected them all because in truth she was in love with —— all the Daddies in the comic books she has read. Behind her aloof and dependable persona resided a Weeb who was always cheering on the characters of her favourite books.
One day she came upon the book ‘ The Maid’s route of survival of the fittest’ and decided to read it just for the heck of it since the Empress shared the same name as her. But soon Bree found out that the Empress was the Villainess, she even betrayed her mates one by one and what was even more gut-wrenching she was killed by her mates!
All for the sake of the maid who reincarnated into the book with a system to help her.
Bree though angry decided to throw the book at the back of her head but oddly enough the book vanished and Bree found herself waking up in the room of the Evil Empress just three weeks before she was executed by her mates!
Startled but not having the time to freak out, Bree started to take care of everything that the Evil Empress has done wrong. She thought that she would be able to live a peaceful life away from her bloodthirsty mates who didn’t seem too fond of her.
But unfortunately, things didn’t go as she planned as five sets of eyes fell on her despite all the precautions she has taken against them. And once those eyes locked on her, they refused to let go of their possessiveness.
The Evil Empress was theirs, to begin with who dares take her away?
