Nameless

jNothel

A master potter of the Tang Dynasty accidentally falls into a well and time-travels to 2010, inhabiting the body of a young heir of a prestigious antique authentication clan — a man who has just taken his own life after a single misidentification brought his family to the brink of bankruptcy. Armed with a millennium of craft knowledge and a silent pact with the deceased's lingering memory, he rebuilds the clan's reputation through every auction he enters. But across twenty-six years, the man he once was fades quietly away — replaced by something neither Tang nor modern — while the woman who loves him watches the change from close enough to feel it but too far to stop it. The legacy he pours his entire second life into becomes the very spark that ignites a war among his children the moment he closes his eyes. A story about identity, blind love, and the price of legacy — when the thing we build to be remembered becomes the thing that destroys everything.

Breaking Fate

jNothel

Kenji Nishimura — a modern mechanical engineer — is reborn into Sengoku-era Japan in the body of Tsuchiya Sōma, a peasant boy with no status, no martial gift, and no right to become a shinobi. All he has is the knowledge of the twenty-first century. In a world where birthright determines every limit, Sōma uses physics and science to reverse-engineer ninja techniques one principle at a time — and begins climbing toward the summit of a world that was never meant to include him. But the man who understands the rules of a system does not simply learn to survive within it. He learns to break it.

The Ones Who Stay

Two PhD researchers at the University of Edinburgh — once close, separated by class divide and words never spoken — are forced to work together in opposing labs. Lin Sicheng, a fourth-year Taiwanese PhD student carrying his supervisor's legacy like armor, and Song Yutong, a brilliant first-year from mainland China proving she belongs in a world that doubts her, must navigate academic rivalry, cultural tension, and the wreckage of a past neither has fully faced. As Edinburgh's long winters close in, they discover that the wounds they built their ambitions around were never really about success — and that staying, this time, is a choice they have to make on purpose.

The Echo of Your Smile

In the neon-drenched, melancholic city of Oakhaven, Zackariel "Zack" Glintwolf is a man drowning in guilt after the death of his girlfriend, Ren. When a mysterious translucent blade appears at his doorstep — a relic with the power to pierce the veil between dimensions — Zack makes the desperate choice to enter the Static Void, a hostile purgatory where souls linger before fading forever. What he finds is not the peaceful memory he cherished, but a Ren trapped in the loop of her darkest moments: the hidden emotional wounds and deep worthlessness she concealed behind a fragile smile while she was alive. To bring her back, Zack cannot rely on his blade alone. He must confront the truth that he failed to truly see her when she was breathing — that he loved her in the way he thought was right, never in the way she needed. As the Void slowly strips away his humanity the longer he stays, and as Ren edges closer to accepting her own disappearance, their journey becomes a slow-burn romance of mutual healing. Ren must find the courage to believe she is worthy of being saved. Zack must learn to listen to the quiet cries beneath the smile. Together, fighting both literal shadows and psychological demons, they forge a path back — to the living world, and to each other.

The Frequency of You

Byullye

Aiden Cross is a reclusive college student haunted by the Soul-Echo — an involuntary ability to hear the raw, unfiltered inner cries of anyone experiencing extreme grief, fear, or loneliness. To survive the noise of a world in constant emotional agony, he hides behind matte-black headphones and a carefully maintained distance from everyone around him. He does not want to be needed. He especially does not want to be loved. Then he meets four girls whose silence is louder than anything he has ever heard. Evelyn, a blind piano prodigy whose inner world speaks in symphonies of grief. Lyra, a Siren pretending to be mute, whose true voice only Aiden can hear without being destroyed. Serena, an ice-cold heiress stalked by an ancestral shadow wraith that has been whispering darkness into her mind for years. And Iris, a girl trapped in a year-long coma whose astral projection wanders the campus, invisible to everyone — except him. When Aiden answers the silent cries each of them has given up on anyone ever hearing, something irreversible begins. For the first time, someone truly listens. And when four wounded souls find their only anchor in one person, the line between being needed and being loved becomes the most dangerous frequency of all. As a soul-devouring enemy closes in — one who engineered their wounds and now wants to harvest them — Aiden must choose between the distance that kept him safe and the love he never believed he deserved. Because the girls have already chosen. The only question is whether he will finally let himself be heard.

She lost her mother to a man like him. He lost his mother to a man like her father. Both swore they would never bleed for love. Now they have one year to play husband and wife before the Volkov-Sartori family swallows their territories whole — but the marriage they swore to fake is becoming the most dangerous thing either of them has ever felt. As bodies pile up and old wounds bleed open, Millicent and Costantino will have to decide whether love is the weakness that destroys empires — or the only thing strong enough to survive them.

When her best friend begs her to stand in at a blind date, Seo-yeon only wants the evening to collapse as quickly as possible. But the man across the table — cold, impossibly arrogant — turns out to be Cha Do-yoon, the newly appointed CEO of her own company. And he has a proposal: she plays his girlfriend to deflect his grandfather's relentless marriage pressure, in exchange for a sum that could save her mother's life. Now Seo-yeon must live two lives — the polished girlfriend of a chaebol heir in front of his family, and the invisible junior employee inside the very company he runs.

As they train together for the kingdom's Grand Tournament, every breakthrough Clara achieves pulls Ethan closer to the strength he never knew he had, and every quiet moment between them pulls them both toward a truth they're not yet brave enough to name.
