An ancient, dreadfully powerful entity that had once been sealed away to slowly fade into oblivion is revived by a chance encounter, though in a much reduced state. ... more>>

A temple monk on her way home for a vacation is distracted into exploring a newly formed Spiritual Nexus due to the cuteness of its rabbit monsters, leading to an entirely unexpected chain of events.

A kitsune whose death caused a goddess to pity her fate and revive her as a reincarnated Nexus Core, a land spirit of endless potential but whose life is tied to a crystal sphere that must be carefully guarded.

Thrown together by a twist of luck, these three navigate a complex relationship and build their own rules to live by. But there are those who are not pleased to see the return of this ancient being.

The primary romantic relationship is poly and mutual.

With his father dead and his brother inheriting the earldom, Braydon sets out to inherit the family’s neglected title, Viscount of Cliforge, the only land of the Kingdom on the other side of the Brimstone Mountains. ... more>>

His new lands are on the border that is held peaceful by an uneasy truce and the same lands that claimed his father’s life on the battlefield.

With no reputation in noble society and no military might to speak of he will be a long way from challenging his brother whose land is some of the most prosperous in the empire, and has the backing of their younger brother, who has the smarts to raise their position even further.

Will he become another casualty to the lands that have already claimed his father, or become something more as he climbs his way to prominence?

At least he can be sure that his brother would never see him rise peacefully, and the neighbouring Grand Duke desires the last territory of the kingdom on the eastern side of the mountains. His position is anything but stable, he will do anything to change that and build his realm.

Ann, a corporate slave in the modern life, suddenly couldn’t resist her body’s drowsiness and fell asleep after working non-stop for... who-knows-how-long. Her sleep wasn’t a good one as she was overly worried she wouldn’t be able to finish her work. When she finally woke up, she was greatly shocked. ... more>>

An unknown room, an unknown man with his icy expression, and moreover, the man addressed her as “Arlea”, and not “Ann”.
And then she finally realized. She somehow ended up in the body of “Arlea”—a villainess in the fantasy/romance otome game she had played in the past, when she still had free time to relax. To make things worse, she remembered that in the next one year, she—Arlea—was fated to die.

‘In such a situation, what should I do?’
‘Let’s think seriously of a way to overturn the situation?’
‘But hold on, what if I can’t change the scenario? Why bother?’

Having lived her days in the modern life as a serious and restrained woman who became a corporate slave to her death, Ann finally decided... to spend her additional 365 days to live well, and to cross out some of her bucket list that she could still do!

'If I can avoid my death, it's good. If not, at least I've enjoyed my additional time here in this fantasy world where magic and monsters exist, where I don't need to slave away my life ridiculously for the corporate!'

Little did she know that her decision would cause everyone who knew Arlea to be very surprised and alarmed with her change.
What happened to the villainous, hateful woman called Arlea? Why did she become like this? What is she scheming now??
Let's see how long she can keep up her pretense!

Can she avoid her death flag, or will she be able to survive more than the designed 365 days?

Imagine waking up in a stranger’s body, only to discover you’re married to a hot MILF who despises you. That’s Aric Lawson’s reality when he awakens as Vayne Arkwright—a disgraced noble whose sins have left Ashwick in ruins and his wife, Seraphina, seething with hatred. To make matters worse, Vayne’s memories are gone due to amnesia, leaving Aric clueless about this world of magic, betrayal, and debauchery. His sole guide is Ivy, a sarcastic, self-aware system who offers no quests or clear direction—just cryptic advice and sarcasm.

Trapped in a body tied to a legacy of cruelty, addiction, and corruption, Aric must navigate a broken marriage, treacherous politics, rebuild crumbling cities, and win back the trust of those Vayne wronged—all while grappling with the lingering guilt of inherited sins. With no easy answers, Aric faces an impossible journey: redeeming himself in a life not his own while resisting the darkness within Vayne’s essence. It’s a messy, infuriating start. <<less

Aria is deep in the closet that she could feel the icy winds of Narnia. She prefers that to the alternative of coming out. ... more>>

For her, visiting comicons, watching favourite girl ships was an outlet.
Getting into a LARP marriage with a beautiful girl was an indulgence.
Driving the girl home was impulsive.
Now, Aria's carefully crafted world is upside-down.

Her new girl has allure, and, devotion to coax her guarded heart to come out.

Forging a romantic bond with the girl should be easy, right? Except for the scorn from homophobes, and disapproval from her own family and finally, Aria's own mind.

How far could she trust a girl who claims to be an ACTUAL alien and that their LARP marriage to be real?

Threats both local and extra-terrestrial, keep piling up, but a year and a day, and Aria's life should be back to normal. Her new girl should be gone.

Except, Astra intends for more from the adorable human girl. She could never leave the side of her new wife. And she would do anything it takes to make her fall in love with her.

============================

Author Notes:

The story is set in contemporary, present-day world with slight elements of sci-fi, futuristic technology, even those are confined to space opera genre.

This story contains, elements of coming out, homophobia, transphobia, subtle misogyny, every day microagressions and the acceptance of self.

The MC is a dumbass and her struggles are, at times, adorable and at time cringeworthy with an equally baffled and hot roomate/wife. Her fears range from extemely valid to superficial ones. This is the story of an MC who knows what she is but lacks the courage to accept.

There is a transcharacter but the revelation and implication comes late in the story. Hence I have not added a trans-tag, so as to not mislead readers. <<less

Dago. A cynical descendant of wicked wizards with an insatiable appetite for women, power, and gold.

Hera. An empathetic healer whose impeccable reputation the reformed villain would like to borrow.

Upon hearing that a marriage could help him get a promotion to a government position, Dago doesn’t feel like laughing. But when a marriage candidate arrives at his flying castle and asks for help in breaking a curse, his draconic instinct tells him that her ability to change sugar into gold might be worth more than all his businesses combined. It doesn’t matter that the phoenix witch’s fiery gaze easily sees through his greed. What counts is that she is desperate enough to consider making a pact regardless.

Dago silences the whisper of remorse and from the icy depths of his soul, he summons his personal charm. But there is one thing he forgets to take into account.

He might not be the only one who knows how to intrigue.

Princess Vyshala lost her godking father,and her brothers, to the fury of the Red Empress. As the only marriage-eligible princess of the royal household, she has sworn to protect her thirteen-year old youngest brother from a similar fate. Even if it meant going against their culture, by accepting the proposal of the Red Empress to become her bride. ... more>>

She would forge peace, while invoking the ire of her people, while shunned and ostracised.

Isolated from all that she had known, from all whom she cared and cursed by her own people, she would attempt everything to form an everlasting peace. A laborious task , for within the walls of the imperial city, threat of a different sort lurks. From the machinations of the imperial high chancellor, legionary generals still seeking to open old wounds and petty dukes fueling their rivalry.

But the greatest challenge of them all, The Red Empresses herself. The diamond-hard gaze, the icy coldness of her exterior and finally, the self-erected iron wall guarding her impenetrable heart.

When seduction is not an option, it is comforting a cold dead heart that would pave her way to peace.

He was tired. He lived in a loop: same suffering, same hatred, same ending.
He was falling. He kept gaining and losing, gaining and losing: family, friends, love.
He was dying. He kept falling asleep, dreaming of never waking up.
What was the purpose of his existence? A mere observer of countless worlds, stories and people?
Voices whispered in his dreams.
“Wait for me.”
He was waiting. But for how long? For how long before he tired, fell, and died?
“Wait for me.”
He was waiting.

Or, in other words...
This is the story of a certain someone, who hopped from world to world, trying to return home. Until one day, the person who kept following him, caught him and locked him in her house.
The clever youth, finding the house comfy, decided to stay. But that night, she threw him on her bed and regardless of his attempts to escape, he ended up getting eaten cleanly, until nothing was left.
So, this is the story of a shy bunny being cooked into soup in different worlds.

This is a biography of once a naive-inexperienced prince, cloaked in the illusion of safety, and coming to power unprepared, unprotected, and surrounded by smiling faces concealing knives, the prince finds refuge in death. But fate isn't through with him, death was only a doorway, and beyond it lay a second chance in a world far darker than he’d ever known.... more>>

Now, reborn into a prehistoric world, he opens his eyes to the raw brutality of life in an isolated tribe, where survival is not a right but a constant struggle. The prince finds himself stripped of his throne and thrust into a Stone Age existence where cunning and resilience matter more than bloodlines.

Here, the night is a territory of fear and death, claimed by an ancient, nameless force that has stalked humanity to the brink. Once, they lived freely under the stars—now, they cower in the dark, their lives dictated by the need to survive the horrors that emerge when the sun fades.

Armed with memories of a past life, an empire’s worth of arcane knowledge, and a sharpened edge from betrayal, The prince must learn to wield magic in a world where survival skills and political maneuvering are just as vital. His journey isn't simply about survival; it's about power, about becoming more than a boy or a prince. It’s about forging a destiny carved out of fire and stone.

What to Expect:
- An anti-hero torn between the princely ambitions of a past life and the raw survival instincts of a primitive existence.
- A blend of political intrigue, dark fantasy, and horror as the prince maneuvers through tribal dynamics, supernatural threats, and the ruthless lessons of betrayal.
- Progression fantasy elements where magic must be cultivated, hard-won, and carefully controlled in a world where even the shadows can kill.

What Not to Expect:
- A savior or selfless hero. 
  Prince Rokan is willing to use everything—and everyone—to survive, conquer, and protect his own. In this world, mercy is scarce, allies are temporary, and the power he seeks comes with a price.

What happens when a hopelessly lost, yet unwaveringly kind soul is surprisingly chosen by a hated, evil goddess in order to become both her champion and husband?... more>>

In a densely magical era, the gods themselves live in the world’s cities together with the ilk of mortal people — whether humans, fairies, elves, or any other races that lie in between. Great temples, schools, and industries to hundreds of different deities are maintained by their many followers as the countless faiths compete for power by gaining more worshipers through whatever means necessary. Adventuring deep into the hearts of dungeons, slaying dangerous and rare monsters, creating wondrous guilds, or crafting incredible things in honor of their patrons — no task is too much to ask for those people in service of the divine.

This great competition has brought about an age of prosperity and wealth to the world as the gods fight to out-compete each other in the race for followers.

— For most.

Others, however, who do not fall into the favoring eyes of any gods who would want them, for lack of power, talent, or social standing, find themselves abandoned by both Heaven and their fellow citizens.

One such unwanted wretch, the young, runty, mouse-human half-breed Majiko — a destitute orphaned survivor of the destroyed city of Souzerain — suddenly finds himself caught up in a chaotic situation five years after his traumatic past. Despite being rejected from every house and temple of the gods in the new city, he is taken by surprise to become the husband of the secretive, reviled crow goddess with one wing and one eye. However, she is the very same wanted person who has been accused of the heinous crime of destroying his home and killing his family.

But perhaps there is more to the situation than it first appears?

Denying responsibility and claiming that the two of them are now bound in a conspiracy four layers deep, she awakens Majiko to a secret world that has been around him all of his life. Strange happenings abruptly set in motion all around them, and he fights to understand the real nature of the grand conspiracy that he apparently has always unknowingly been in the very center of.

Taking on the mantle of the weakened goddess‘ protector, it is up to Majiko — marked for death — to not only care for the broken deity but also to find out what really happened to both of them five years ago, even if that means forsaking his sense of honor and justice along the way.

Can a kicked and beaten lowlife from the streets rise up to stand in the halls of champions amongst the greatest in the world, or will both he and his mischievous, strange wife-creature be crushed underfoot like vermin before they can reveal the truth? Is the strange crow really as innocent as she claims, or is this all another ruse in order for her to slip through the grasp of justice once more?
