My name is Ivy Choi. I'm the girl who accidentally destroyed the star quarterback's reputation.

Then I became his babysitter.

And now I'm falling for the boy who swore he'd destroy me.

So I did the only thing I could think of.

I answered his babysitting ad.

Now I spend my nights drawing galaxies for his brother Leo while Beck watches me like I'm a bomb waiting to explode. He doesn't know I'm the one who ruined him. He doesn't know I'm the reason his family fell apart.

And he definitely doesn't know that my mother isn't just a monster—she's been hunting me my whole life.

She's the reason I learned to hide.

He's the reason I want to be seen.

But when the truth comes out, he'll hate me forever.

And my mother? She's just getting started.

Book One: The Romance Author's Matchmaking

Micaela Dawson was no stranger to the subtleties of the human mating call - if anything, she was an expert; after all, she built a long and successful career on them. When she agreed to meet her commitment-phobe godson/nephew, Chris Ericson after finding out he went through another one of Seattle's young ladies, she had every intention of sharing her scalding opinion of his lothario behavior by reminding him he wasn't getting any younger. However, as she approached the glass storefront of A Steamy Love Affair Coffee Shop, she noticed the hunt of the wild happening right before her eyes.

There was a moment, just a mere moment of fascination in this new young lady's eyes as she glanced up to see her nephew from the opposite side of the table. Unfortunately, Micaela quickly noticed the hideous hungry, wolfish grin on her godson's face. Lord knows what attracted women to that look when it was clear as day that look said nothing more than, 'You! Me! Bed! Now! Grr!'

Once she noticed the moment was not going to progress, she walked into the shop, going straight to the young woman that captured the attention of her wannabe playboy nephew. Her name was Persephone, like unwilling bride of Hades. The fact that she didn't hesitate to share her table in a crowded shop was a good sign. Mentioning that Micaela had been her favorite author once upon a time was good for the ego but hearing that she was not looking for a relationship - well, Micaela had yet to decide if that was good or bad.

When Persephone's early departure clearly put a kink in her godson's nefarious intentions toward his new potential victim, his disappointment was palpable. Micaela quickly began to plot like she did in when she was in front of her computer creating new worlds filled with love.

On one hand, there was a beautiful young woman not interested in love... and on the other, a handsome young man who desired her but was not considering settling down any time soon.

Her days of writing romance novels may be over, but her days of playing matchmaker may have just begun, as it seems nature just leveled up her tools and her arena in a most dramatic fashion!

What no one knew was that our reckless night had already sown its seed. I was pregnant.

“I, Alpha Taylor, reject you Juliana as my mate and the Luna of Moonlight Pack.”

My heart was broken into pieces when these words came out from Alpha Taylor. This is my third chance mate and he still rejected me.

"I won't accept your rejection!!" I cried out.

"I will banish you and turn you into a rogue if you refuse to accept this rejection now!!" walking with predatory steps he let out a low growl.

"Please, you can't reject me," with teary eyes I pleaded for him to pity me.

"We are enemies, remember...?" He asked reluctantly.

"Yes, but just give us a chance... I am damn sure that we could work things out," I desperately voiced.

"NEVER...!!" he snarled dangerously at me causing me to flinch back in fear.

"Plea... please, please..." With trembling lips, I pleaded as tears streamed down my face.

Smiling deadly, he strode toward me, "You are a curse, Juliana, remember..."

She was raised to believe she was a human being.
He was born to destroy what she truly is.

When twenty-year-old Aria Vale begins suffering from visions of silver moons and wolves howling beneath the city streets, she thinks she’s losing her mind. But the night she meets Kael Draven, everything changes. His eyes—mercurial and ancient—awaken something feral inside her, something her parents spent their lives hiding.

Kael is no ordinary man. He’s the Prince of the Lycan Dominion, an immortal realm built on blood pacts and moon magic. Cursed by the prophecy of the Crimson Bond, Kael carries a bloodline that dooms every soul he loves. He never expected his fated mate to be the last surviving heir of the rival D’Lupin line—the Lost Luna whose return could ignite war between realms.

But Aria’s awakening is more dangerous than either imagined. Her blood isn’t just royal—it’s cursed. The same curse that doomed Kael’s bloodline runs in her veins, linking them in a bond that could either save or consume both worlds.

As forbidden love burns between them, ancient powers stir, and Aria’s lost brother rises from the ashes of betrayal—reborn as the weapon of the very queen who destroyed their family.

To save the realms, Aria must embrace the monster within or lose everything to it.

"Do you know what happens to girls who invade my space uninvited?" His voice was low.
"I... I'm not..."
"I don't kiss," he said, his gaze never leaving hers. "Never saw the point of it."
Her heartbeat thundered in her ears.
"But for you..." His voice dropped to a whisper. "I'll make an exception."
The kiss stole the air from her lungs. She pushed against his chest, desperate to break free.
But then... two words shattered everything.
"Luca! Brother!"
Sofia thought returning to the Virelli mansion after years abroad would feel like coming home.
Instead, she walks straight back into the orbit of Luca Virelli, her cold, ruthless foster brother and the feared head of the Italian mafia.
The same man who spent years making her feel like she didn't belong.
But something has changed.
Because the moment Luca sees her again, his icy indifference shifts into something far more dangerous.
OBSESSION.

They call him a villain. I call him stepbrother.

My life was a pastel dream of university lectures and family inheritance—until my mother married Nikolai Volkov, a man whose wealth is shadowed by a dangerous, unseen empire. Overnight, I, Anya Petrova, am pulled into a world of cold luxury and deadly secrets.

Then I meet him: Dimitri Volkov.

My new stepbrother is a weapon in an Italian suit. Calculating, precise, and possessing sapphire eyes that hold the chilling emptiness of a man who has traded his soul for power. He doesn’t want me; he wants the assets my father left behind. He sees me as a pawn in his long-game plan for vengeance against his own father.

I should run. I should scream his secrets to the world. But Dima’s control is a gilded cage I find myself leaning into, and his ruthlessness mirrors the desperate loneliness in my own heart. He pushes boundaries until our quiet hostility combusts into a desperate, forbidden affair.
When the line between vengeance and obsession blurs, I discover a dangerous truth: Dima is not just planning his father's destruction—he's planning to claim the asset, the empire, and me, as his ultimate spoils.
In the dark game of forbidden desire, the price of control is absolute. And I am about to pay it.

Ten years ago, my parents sent me to the military. After countless battles, I became the country's youngest marshal. When I returned from retirement, I discovered that my parents had been brutally murdered — their heads cut off and taken as trophies.
Overnight, I summoned all my forces. Anyone who dares to harm my family will pay with their lives.

“We are not meant to do this…” I gasped, breathless under the heat of his kisses.

“It’s not part of the contract.”

“Screw the contract. I want you,” Ethan cut in, passion burning in his eyes. “Right now.”

Ariana Cruz never thought her life would fall apart so fast. Once a celebrated relationship therapist with millions of followers, she had built her career on giving people love advice. But everything came crashing down when her longtime boyfriend exposed her deepest insecurities during a live broadcast. The humiliation went viral. Overnight, Ariana lost her reputation, her career, and the fans who once adored her.

Broke, broken, and desperate to rebuild, she swore never to trust another man. Until Ethan Vale walked into her life.

Ethan wasn’t just any man. He was the billionaire CEO of Vale Resorts. Powerful, arrogant, and one of her harshest critics. Their paths should never have crossed again, but fate had other plans. One reckless night of drinks and pent-up anger led to a scandalous one-night stand. When the tabloids got wind of it, Ethan made her an offer she couldn’t refuse.

A contract marriage. One year. No strings attached.

Ariana knows she should walk away. Ethan is dangerous, unpredictable, and controlling. But she signs the deal, believing she can keep her heart out of it.

She was wrong.

Now she’s caught in a storm of jealousy, betrayal, and sabotage. An ex who won’t let go, a rival who wants her ruined, and a family secret that could shatter everything she thought she knew.

The biggest danger of all isn’t the contract or the enemies circling them. It’s the way her heart betrays her every time Ethan touches her.

Is he her captor… or the only man she has ever truly loved?

“He will kill us all if he finds me…” I muttered trying to hide the tears that threatened to fall.
Kit raised his hand running it over my cheek with a smile, “let him come…I’ll destroy him.”

She stepped back, curling her small fists of her gown. She looked beautiful, ethereal. Her big doe eyes blinked at his sudden arrival. Her breath hitched the moment he took steps towards her. "What are you doing here? Cavin?" She questioned stammering. 
"Say no to this engagement now!" He growled, pulling her by her waist. Her soft body crashed with hard one. Making her breath uneven. She tried to avoid his strong gaze. That was piercing her soul. 
"Why would I?" She questioned back confidently. Triggering his feelings. His wants. His desires. Without any second thought he crashed his lips on hers. Feeling her adopted uncles lips on hers, she shivered at the thought. Their forbidden desires would lead them to problems.

I never believed transmigration was possible because I have only witnessed it in movies or read it in fantasy novels.

And I, Isabella Red or should I call myself Scarlet Aubrielle Elvoi experienced the unknown phenomenon of transmigrating into another world - well not just into another world but into a game that I developed in my previous life!

It honestly took me a few days before I accepted my fate but now that I did, this is only the time that I realized who I have become after I transmigrated into this game that I developed myself.

Scarlet Aubrielle Elvoi, a woman who has silver hair and violet eyes. A perfect face that any man falls in love with, and a stable, powerful, and rich family background that makes them almost on par with the Imperial Family. She is literally a character that is born with a silver spoon in her mouth however the thing is that she is neither the female lead nor just a simple side character.

I cannot help but remember how I actually made the game an end. Again, the game will end when the main characters have already eliminated the final boss - Scarlet Aubrielle Elvoi and that is when they have already beheaded me and extracted all my magical powers, and make it a substance to create a barrier that will protect the whole kingdom from demons for the next five hundred years.

I cannot help but heave a sigh as I think about what will happen to me in four years.

Seriously, I have no issue in transmigrating into a new world because it is better than just dying and going to heaven or hell, and of course, I still want to live a long life because there are still a lot of things that I still want to do. But then again, why the hell have I become the villainess of the game that I created?! For heaven’s sake whoever is behind this should have just made me into the main character or if not just a simple side character that will live her life to the fullest!

And the worst case scenario is the fact that this is actually a romance game that has four routes - routes that are so hard to complete because I made it that way! Scarlet Aubrielle Elvoi - a woman who is literally hated by almost everyone the moment that she started bullying the female lead and was later beheaded by her and her chosen male lead: her entire family also met a tragic end due to the consequences of her actions.

The thing is I DON’T WANT TO DIE!

He pressed a finger against my lips.
"Hush."
His hair was still damp from his shower. Falling over his forehead like strands of gold.
He smelled amazing.
Clean skin, whiskey, and something that was uniquely him. Something musky with a hint of rain.
His lips trailed down my body, leaving kisses everywhere they touched. His tongue followed, dragging heat across my skin until he settled between my legs.
My breath caught.
He pressed soft kisses to my inner thighs.
For a moment he simply looked at me.
His gaze lingered over my body. His lips twitched at my shaved pussy.
His lips parted like he was about to say something.
Instead, he lowered his head.
The first touch of his tongue made my entire body jerk.
A helpless sound escaped me. His tongue thrust into me, hungry, needy.
My hips rolled against him automatically.
Like I had no control over my own body anymore.
