Under His Unyielding Roof
By @john1208
Elara Thorne's family legacy, a beloved but crumbling antique bookstore, teeters on the brink of ruin, threatened by merciless debt collectors and a looming eviction. Her desperate plea for a loan leads her unexpectedly to the doorstep of Atlas Kincaid, the elusive, ruthless billionaire known as the 'Ice Prince' of real estate. He offers an unconventional, almost cruel, solution: a substantial investment to save her business, but only if she agrees to live in his secluded, impenetrable penthouse for six months as his 'personal assistant,' bound by an ironclad contract. Every shared glance, every brush of his tailored sleeve, sends a cold shiver down Elara's spine, yet her breath catches with an undeniable, dangerous pull. If she fails to adhere to his every command, not only will her family lose everything, but she'll discover the terrifying truth behind Atlas's shadowed eyes, risking her heart to a man who might be incapable of warmth.

The Chibi CEO's Secret Wife
By @john1208
CEO Gu Chenzhou, known for his icy demeanor and the ruthless expansion of the Gu Group's tech empire, needs a temporary wife to secure a crucial legacy project. Lin Wei, a struggling animator with a vibrant imagination, accidentally captures his attention when she's trying to save her family's traditional puppet theater from demolition by his company. He sees a unique "chibi" spark in her work, a creative energy he needs to counter a competitor's AI-driven marketing campaign. Their contract: she pretends to be his devoted wife, and he saves her theater. But Gu Chenzhou is a man of logic, not emotion, and Lin Wei finds herself navigating opulent penthouses and ruthless boardrooms, all while his domineering gaze, softened only by his chibi design, starts to stir something unexpected within her. As the line between pretense and reality blurs, a rival CEO, Su Mochen, emerges, not just for business, but for Lin Wei's heart, threatening to expose their charade and dismantle everything they've built.
