“Th-then there’s no helping it.” For a moment, my stepmother’s face stiffened, but only for a second. She quickly laughed it off and smoothed things over like it was no big deal. Even if she was my stepmother, she couldn’t push things in front of Baek Mugyeong. When she heard that neither Baek Jinseok nor Baek Jaehan had come, my father clicked his tongue lightly, showing his displeasure. But most of all, the one who held absolute power at this event was Baek Mugyeong. Since he had openly…- 281.3 K • Completed
Khalid didn’t explain any further and gently ushered Yudit into the bath. Inside, the attendants were already waiting. Recalling the ordeal of the previous bath, Yudit looked at them with a sour expression. Fortunately, they seemed to mean it when they’d said it would be quick today. Though he’d soaked in hot water and had a grain-based facial paste applied, it hadn’t taken long enough to make him sleepy. From start to finish, it hadn’t even taken thirty minutes. That was a win in Yudit’s…- 396.9 K • Completed
Dohee suddenly turned to look at Moonhyuk without meaning to, then quickly shifted his gaze back forward. His head filled with question marks. You’ve never been to the Han River? Not even once? Why? Sure, it was a bit of a distance from their school, but it was still within easy reach by public transportation if you really wanted to go. Back in his college days, Dohee himself had been dragged along by his classmates a few times to drink by the river. Once you’re there, students from all sorts of…- 239.0 K • Completed
Lin Wei had already recalled this period from his previous life. Back then, he was part of the Empire's Mage Corps and, alongside the Tidis family, had aligned himself early with the Gregory faction. This had led to frequent interactions with that Highness. Although he rarely moved around the Imperial Capital due to his magic studies, he had never missed any major news from the city. During this time, in his memory, it was indeed uneventful—nothing particularly noteworthy. The old Emperor had…- 224.9 K • Completed
The man briefly lost consciousness from the impact with the ground.Not long after, he opened his eyes and felt a dull, aching pain spread throughout his body, especially his back. It seemed his leg was dislocated and several of his ribs were cracked. However, since his spine remained uninjured, he was still able to move.Even as his mind cursed him and screamed for him to just die already.He stood up, counted the number of wolves swarming from all directions, and, with his body broken and battered,…- 183.7 K • Completed
- Kim Jaewon and Jo Seontae were criminals who would do anything as long as they were paid. They were especially notorious for filming sexual assaults to blackmail victims for money. They claimed they didn’t know who had hired them, only that they’d received my name, photo, and address from a private detective agency director and had followed me around for over a week. My routine was fairly simple: home, school, and cram school. Since I moved around by car and always went to crowded places with…

Huo Yinshi hadn’t expected to run into Wen Chi here. Haining wasn’t a small city, so to randomly end up at the same sushi restaurant, this had to be fate. He glanced around and, not seeing any camera crew, he asked, “Aren’t you filming a show?” “Yeah,” Wen Chi replied cheerfully. Seeing a good friend unexpectedly like this made him genuinely happy. “Then what about...” Huo Yinshi paused, “...the cameramen and stuff?” “We’re eating out, so it’s inconvenient to have a…- 257.5 K • Completed
Seo Yakrin merely circled in wide arcs across the sky, reluctant to attack outright. Judging by the movement of her enormous right pupil, larger than Yohan’s head, she seemed to be gauging Lee Hyunmook’s reactions. Yet her other eye, the left one, rolled restlessly as it persistently tracked Yoon Seungryong. “Hey! Old hag! Come here! Let’s make it a fair four-on-one fight!” Though Yoon Seungryong’s taunt was downright shameless, the situation itself wasn’t. It was a testament to how…- 297.5 K • Completed
- The flurry of hands packing the bag was frantic. Normally, Moonhyuk would stack his workbooks neatly in size order, but today they were all jumbled together. His mechanical pencil and pen, which had been resting on top of the books, rolled into the bag without making it into the pencil case. His heart raced. If he said he wasn’t flustered by Dohee’s message, that he was already waiting in front of the main gate, it would be a lie. – Hurry up, hyung. I missed you. That quiet voice, tinged…

The spacious warehouse echoed with music that kept starting and stopping. Every time it played a few lines, it would cut off, only to start again from the beginning less than a minute later. “Fuck!” Completely fed up, Shi Yi finally cursed out loud and reluctantly crawled over Ying Ming’s body to search for the phone they had apparently tossed somewhere the night before. Without his glasses, his vision was a blur. He nearly tripped and fell several times. After finally fishing the phone out…- 283.2 K • Completed
