It never felt right to me until I got injured and was bedridden for a fair bit of time. After binging on k-dramas and anime I realized I was trying to shove a square peg through a round hole. I was trying to write a straight up urban fantasy story when what I needed was a romance that gets interrupted by an urban fantasy story. I'm a fan of the Isekai premise but I think the stories coming out nowadays are stale and and just cut and paste OP wish fulfillment. I wanted to do one that did something fresh with the premise. I've self-published on Amazon but it's hard to sell books without having fans. So I'm hoping to find readers by making the book available. WARNING: This story is intended for a mature audience. While a majority of it is about romance/drama/fluffy childhood friend tomboy flirting the story also features horror elements. There are depictions of graphic violence/attempted rape/gore. As well as characters using derogatory language involving sexual preference.

After serving five years in prison for her brother, she was released and arrived at a hotel, supposedly for a welcome-home celebration. Instead, it turned out to be her brother's and wife's wedding venue. Just as I thought the venue had made a mistake, my brother handed me a suit. I was overjoyed, thinking this was a surprise planned by my wife and brother. Putting on the suit, I discovered, to my shock, that the groom was actually my brother. "Thank you all for attending Serenity's and my wedding. Serenity and I will certainly grow old together." Everyone offered their congratulations, wishing them a lifetime of happiness. I wanted to angrily confront them, but my parents held me back. Afterwards, my wife and brother explained to me: "You just got out of jail and have a criminal record. We're only getting married for the kids' sake. It's a fake marriage. But in public, you can only call Serenity your sister-in-law." The next day, they were inseparable, even going on a honeymoon. Regaining my composure, I contacted their sworn enemy. "Alright, I accept. I'm in."
