Beneath the Silk Moon

Morning_Dew1
In Ming Dynasty China, a poor poet and a noblewoman fall in forbidden love, risking exile and death as they defy a world ruled by power, class, and silence. In the heart of the Ming Dynasty, Liang Wenyan, a gifted but impoverished poet, meets Lady Zhao Lianhua, the daughter of a powerful court minister, during a spring festival. Bound by fate and a shared love of poetry, they fall in love in secret—defying rigid class divides and political scheming. As betrayal, exile, and war threaten to tear them apart, Wenyan and Lianhua must choose between duty and desire. Through whispered verses, stolen moments, and the courage to face an empire, their love blossoms like plum petals in winter—fragile, beautiful, and eternal. (Guys this is just a little love story I imagined when I started watching romance dramas.) Hope you guys like it. #ForbiddenLove #StarCrossedLovers #ClassDivide #CourtIntrigue #LoveAndHonor #ExiledLovers #SecretPoetry #PoliticalDrama #SlowBurnRomance #HistoricalFiction #HistoricalRomance

Chasing after the system rewards that promised a better life, Kazami Mei started the so-called “romance simulation” with a playful attitude.

The Divinery Rising

In a world where corruption hides beneath crowns and heroes are forged through tragedy, one boy’s pain will shape the future. Ryker Tensai was just a child when he lost everything—his heroic father vanished, his mother imprisoned, and his hands stained with blood. Branded a villain by the world, Ryker vanished into the shadows. But in a world ruled by false justice and a collapsing system, he rises again—not as a hero, but as a force meant to destroy and rebuild. From the haunted alleys of Japan to the sacred land of Tenjiku, from guild wars to godly clashes, Ryker manipulates nations, breaks fate, and shakes heaven itself. But the deeper he dives into the truth, the more he realizes—he is both the world's salvation and its greatest curse. This is a tale of evil god vs human. This is the rise of a broken hero… The rise of a god... The Divinery Rising.

My Supernatural Girlfriends Spoils Me Rotten

"Stop following me!" Asher yelled, his patience running thin. He had let it slide for too long because she had done a lot for him. But now she was everywhere, suffocating him. "I’m only trying to protect you," she responded. Asher sighed, running a hand through his hair. "I need some space, alright? I can take care of myself." She didn’t budge, and just kept staring at him with that same obsessive look, like she had no intention of leaving. "Is it because you’re strong now? Are you going to leave me because I'm no use to you anymore?” Her voice had turned cold, sharp enough to cut through the silence. “Of course not, you know that’s not the reason…” “Then why do you want me to stop following you?” “I’m just going to the restroom, for God’s sake!” He massaged his temple, clearly at his wit’s end. “Oh, you should have said that earlier.” She giggled, the earlier tension melting away. “I did,” he sighed in defeat.
