The Hero's Obsessive Villain
By @Lira
Being the villain was supposed to be a temporary gig. My plan was simple: fight the hero, lose dramatically, and fade into a comfortable retirement. I performed my role perfectly, right up until the hero shattered the script. Instead of a final blow, she gave me a chilling smile. Now she keeps me by her side, her gaze a mixture of burning hatred and twisted affection. The world’s savior is obsessed with her greatest enemy, and I have no idea why. Her dangerous fixation might be more inescapable than destiny itself.

Professor, Undercover
By @Lira
They think I'm just a new professor at the famed Sören Academy. They're wrong. I'm an undercover agent from a secret society, planted to unravel the conspiracy rotting the empire from within. My only weapons are my modern knowledge and a sharp tongue in a world of stagnant magic. I must charm the heirs of the elite while digging for their parents' secrets. But the deeper I go, the deadlier the game becomes, and one wrong move means my next lecture will be from the gallows.
