As the proprietor of its last functioning heritage weaving studio, every thread she spins is a desperate prayer. But when the formidable Rhys Kincaid, CEO of Kincaid Industries, descends upon Oakhaven, he isn't there for gentrification - he’s there for her.

Her only goal is to secure a safe life for her sickly younger brother, Alek. But the sprawling, isolated estate of Kresnik Spire holds dark secrets, and her new husband is a man of shadows and sorrow, kind one moment and terrifyingly distant the next. Danuta's kindness slowly chips away at Ziven's walls, revealing a gentle soul trapped by a horrifying curse: every full moon, he becomes a mindless, bloodthirsty beast.

When a former suitor, Baron Verian, arrives with the intent to expose Ziven and claim Danuta for himself, she must make an impossible choice: protect the man she loves by condemning him to a lifetime of monstrosity, or save his soul by surrendering her own life?

The Proxy Groom: A Hostile Matrimony

By @john1208

For twenty years, Rydan survived the brutal smog-slums of Zelrova, building a clandestine data-broker empire alongside his ruthless childhood friend, Zarys. When the ultra-wealthy Ghalvan Corporation suddenly claims Rydan as their long-lost son, it is no fairytale reunion. They only want him as a disposable pawn to marry the terrifying, famously disfigured heiress of the Vesperi Holdings - sparing their golden fake heir, Jorlan, from the political alliance. The Ghalvan elites sneer at Rydan's lack of etiquette, laughing as they send the 'gutter rat' to the monster's estate. They don't know that Zarys's 'disfigurement' is a carefully crafted media lie to avoid suitors, or that she is the shadow-CEO of Vesperi. By forcing this marriage, the arrogant elites haven't discarded a useless son; they have legally united the city’s two most dangerous underworld masterminds. As Jorlan parades his stolen wealth, Rydan and Zarys secretly prepare a devastating corporate ambush. When the wedding bells ring, will the Ghalvan family realize they just financed their own hostile takeover?

By @john1208

Lempi Isotalo, a botanical genius whose greatest talent is avoiding work, wants nothing more than a quiet life tending her plants. But when her family's fortunes crumble, she's forced into an arranged marriage with Lord Valo Koskinen, the reclusive master of the mist-shrouded Virela estate.

Lempi realizes that saving him might be the most challenging project she's ever faced. But with her trusted mentor guiding her from afar and the curse actively fighting her efforts, can this brilliant slacker cultivate a miracle before her husband becomes a permanent statue?
