There's nothing more important than love, Mila always told herself. Even when her boyfriend cheated on her and accused her of stealing, leading to her being fired, Mila still held onto her belief. For a 24-year-old young woman to survive in a big city where she knew nobody but her cheating boyfriend, Mila had to look for work elsewhere not just anywhere, but The Montclair Club. For one night, she served as a salesperson for the launch of a new wine. As the saying goes, (In vino veritas) Truth in wine. Mila's truth was letting her hair down and having fun just for one night. The innocent woman had her own taste of a 'one wild night.' The result? A positive pregnancy test. Mila became pregnant by the hot-tempered, international playboy and heir of the Montclair Conglomerate, from a family of old money. Zyran Ciro Montclair is known to have a special hatred for the words family and poor. He only believes that the poor are leeches and liars. At the moment, the luxury of pride wasn't something Mila could afford. Jobless, pregnant, and left alone in the big city, Mila decided to go after her baby's daddy. Even if he might reject her, she had to try. And somehow, in her pursuit, she ended up on the early morning news: 'Noblesse Oblige: Montclair Heir to Marry an Unknown Poor Country Girl. It's giving Rich Prince and The Pauper. A 21st-century Fairytale.' What could possibly go wrong? you may ask. Stepping into the rarefied and unhinged world of the Montclairs, Mila realized that their realm wasn't the same as her world of black and white. Her perception of life was turned upside down, and she couldn't help but wonder. What could be so poisonous yet so good as power and money? Will Mila's love endure when faced with Zyran's 12 rules for their marriage, including the humiliating demand of: Rule No 6: “Submission is key: When I say kneel, you'll drop to all fours. Don't question it, just obey.” Will she allow herself to be consumed by the corruption that comes with wealth, or will she spread her innocence and show Zyran a world where people don't have to be used? Can their love survive the poisonous influences of power and money? . . . . . . Instagram account: Pluma_W143 Facebook page: Plumadidi Tiktok: @Plumadidi Cover belongs to me. Art by Kelveendraws

EXCERPT: As I walk out of the room, Thane stands by the door with a knowing smirk. He slowly turns to look at me and says "You always do have a way with words. Who knew my little bird was so sharp?" I raise an eyebrow and smile as I say "I don't know if that's a compliment or an insult." Thane's smile turns dark as he suddenly pushes away from the wall and blocks my path. He looks down at me as he slowly leans forward and whispers "For you? It's nothing but compliments." I slightly tilt my head to the side as I feel my smile growing. I take a step closer to him and reach out to his stomach. My fingertips slip under his black shirt as I slowly look up to him with a dark smile of my own. When my fingertips lightly flutter across his smooth skin, I feel his entire body shudder as his jaw tightens. His eyes darken as he stares down at me and says "Keep that up and we won't be going anywhere today..." I softly chuckle and watch as his breathing changes at the sound. I slowly brush my fingers along his muscles as I slowly slip them to his back. I lean up to his lips but stop just a few centimeters away before whispering "You started it.." I say with a growing smirk. Thane's entire body tenses as desire consumes his dark eyes. His breathing becomes uneven as he stares into my eyes and says "I think it's about time you realize there are consequences for what you do to me..." My smile grows wicked as I lean in and slowly kiss him. As soon as he tries to deepen the kiss, I break away and look up to him as I say "I look forward to it..." I pull my hands out from under his shirt and pat his chest before slipping under his arm and walking past him with a devious giggle. Thane licks his lips with a wicked smile of his own, liking everything that little hellion does to him. He slowly stands to his full height with dark, knowing eyes. Yes, he was looking forward to it as well. Wanna talk? Find me on Discord! Blissfullrage#3336 Or https://www.instagram.com/blissfullrage/ ___________________________________ Would like to donate?

Body-Swap Couple) (Man into Woman) (Woman into Man) Lily Snow took out the pair of jade pendants and asked softly, “Tom, people say men should wear Guanyin and women should wear Buddha charms. Is there really any meaning behind that? What happens if a woman wears Guanyin, or if a man wears the Buddha?” Tom grinned and teased, “How about we switch? In the next life, I’ll be your wife, raising our children. You’ll be my husband, holding up the sky for me.” Lily Snow laughed, nodding with delight. “Alright, honey, it’s settled then. In our next life, I’ll be the man, and you’ll be the woman!” “You’re amazing today, Rusty!” / Serena’s Lily blinked. Rusty? That was this body’s name? That sounded so plain… so awkward! Just then, a soft, childish voice echoed in her mind: > “Congratulations, Host! You’ve earned lots of praise today. Keep it up and you’ll soon unlock your powers! The world you’re in now is a small universe—a world created by an author’s story!” Tanner had only been joking earlier, but at that moment, he suddenly remembered his daughter’s nickname. “Honey,” he said to Hazel, “the strategist suggested the name Serena for our daughter. Let’s give her a nickname too!” Hazel nodded warmly. “Alright, something simple and easy to raise, then!” “How about… Rusty?” “I like it!” Hazel agreed again without hesitation. Tom and Lily’s eyes widened in shock. Rusty? What kind of nickname was that—so rough and unsophisticated! And from that day forward, she became known as Serena, the cherished daughter of two loving parents and the beloved little sister of eight twin brothers nicknamed Panmei’s brothers. As for whether there were others of their kin out there — who knew?

Reika was your typical high school girl—average grades, average looks, average everything. Nothing special, nothing dramatic. That is… until one strange day, she suddenly awakened two completely ridiculous powers: 1. The ability to stop time, 2. And the freedom to travel between her world and another fantasy-like world. No, she didn’t get hit by a truck. No gods showed up with a cheat menu. No handsome men declared her the chosen one. It just... happened. Now armed with powers she never asked for (but kind of enjoys), Reika tries to live her best life across both worlds. Of course, life is never that easy. Between culture shock, confused nobles, and the daily struggle of keeping her school attendance intact, Reika might be in for more trouble than she expected. Will her life go smoothly? Or will she discover that even time-stopping girls have to deal with paperwork and laundry? Let the not-so-epic, slightly absurd, and totally unplanned dual-world daily life begin! --- Author’s Rambling Hi there! Author here. This short story was born from a random thought and a lot of free time. I didn’t plan it. I didn’t outline anything. I just wanted to write something fun because, well… I felt like it. That’s all. If you enjoy this kind of laid-back, slightly chaotic story, I hope you’ll stick around. And if it’s not your thing, that’s okay too—I’m still going to keep writing it anyway. Thanks for reading!. Special thanks to my friend Aushi for her support, especially for helping with proofreading and editing. She liked my idea, which made working together even more enjoyable. The editing was done by Aushi—though she's not a writer herself, she’s actually a medical student!

[ Warning: Mature Contents — R18] Nicolas is a “geek” who is often bullied; they humiliated him, embarrassed him, and almost broke him. This continued until the day he was granted the ability to control things……… "Please forgive my manner of approach if I had frightened you," said Vage, her voice seemed to come from all around the room. "It is hard for me to speak your language, but hopefully this recording will help explain your situation afterwards". "Some centuries ago, our race reached for the stars, as yours is starting to do now. We traveled far and wide, and as we traveled we learned. We colonized other planets, and we were able to work within their ecosystems. We thought we were alone, as far as sentient beings were concerned, but we started to find others about two-hundred years after we first left our home soil. After that, we found others much faster, and we shared our knowledge with all we found." As the recording played, the room changed, and I watched as other pink creatures like herself, but both male and female, left a small planet, and grew their influence. I watched them meet interesting creatures, and learn from one another. "Almost every other sentient species we found descended from herbivores. They were peaceful and trusting." As she speaks on, the room showed them eating various plants together. "Then we came upon a primitive race that showed much promise for intelligence, but also seemed violent." The aliens that was now being showed now were small muscular things, red skinned, and covered with tufts of coarse black hair. They had tusks protruding from their snouts, but they didn't have pig noses. Their noses were more akin to a horse's. "We studied this new race for years, before approaching them. They ate meat exclusively, but didn't eat their own kind. We hoped this meant that they could be friendly towards us another sentient race, and in our innocence was our doom". "They treated us well, till we shared what we knew, and gave them our technology. They were quick to learn and ever hungry for it. They began to develop their own technology from what we taught them, and it was too late when we realized their intent." Silence fell in the room, but my mind seemed to supply the sound effects for the brutality that now surrounded me. This new race had taken the technology, and created weapons from it, attacking, and actually eating their teachers before taking to space, and doing it to other planets. The scene zoomed out, and I watched as this new carnivorous race attacked and devoured planet after planet. They were getting close to the home planet of the alien I was talking with, and I realized I no longer feared this alien, but the red ones now terrified me.….. Join Nicolas as he tries to take revenge on his bullies and also put an end to the alien invasion….
