Sweet Villainy is Sweet Escape
By @Yoon Min
After a sudden fatal accident, Sarang wakes up inside the body of her namesake—the notoriously ruthless villainess of her favorite dark-fantasy novel. In the original timeline, this villainess met a brutal execution after desperately plotting to murder the holy heroine and possess the seven supreme sorcerer-lords of the kingdom, collectively known as the Bangtan. Armed with rare summoning and transmutation magic, the transmigrated Sarang wants absolutely nothing to do with her predecessor's toxic obsession or grim fate. She plans to use her magic to build a quiet life far away from the court. Yet, the more she plays dumb, acts clumsy, and reveals her genuine, cheerful nature to avoid them, the more the seven suspicious lords find themselves drawn to her. Fate refuses to let her slip away, dragging her back into a web of dark politics and dangerous infatuation, forcing her to choose between running or conquering the very men who once sought her head.

The Newt Age
By @Book Fanfic
Maléfi Beast, a nascent witch with a shadowy lineage linked to a cursed sleeping spell, finds herself an outcast in the gleaming spires of Auradon. While others celebrate their fairytale endings, Maléfi grapples with uncontrollable magic and a gnawing fear of mirroring her infamous ancestor's villainy. When an ancient, creeping blight begins to steal the joy and vibrant colors from Auradon's storybook lands, suspicion falls heavily on her. Maléfi must master her volatile powers and navigate the treacherous court intrigues to prove her innocence. But the blight isn't just a natural disaster; it's a sentient hunger, twisting the very fabric of happy endings into despair, and Maléfi's unique magic might be the only thing capable of feeding it—or stopping it. Can she rewrite her own destiny without succumbing to the darkness she so desperately fears?
