Athens Lunatic Asylum

"I'll cut to the chase. I'm the villainess in this story." Everyone in this wealthy, elite family adored my poor, fragile adopted sister. My older brother Damien would snap, "Don't scare Bella. Her weak heart can't take it." My other brother, Magnus, would add, "Lend Bella your nightgown, all right? It's wasted on you." Even my fiancé said, "This is nothing more than a marriage of convenience. My true love has always been Bella." In my last life, I humbled myself endlessly to please them. What did I receive in return? They sent me to a mental asylum and I died in agony. Then I came back to life on the day of my engagement party. A voice echoed in my mind and made its announcement. [The Madness Reward System has chosen you, Marceline Blanc. Any unhinged behavior will earn rewards worth hundreds of millions of dollars.] I grinned and sent the pompous, ten-tier cake crashing to the floor. "I'm done with this shitty family. Goodbye, you miserable bastards."

Evelyn found herself seeking asylum under his umbrella after her Pack was destroyed by werewolf hunters, a human organization on a mission to eradicate all werewolves. All she wanted was a safe place to stay and Silvermoon Pack proved to be the perfect place as it was the strongest Pack in the region with a fearless Alpha who agreed to take her under his protection. However, fate had other things in plan for Evelyn as she discovered she was this fearless Alpha’s fated mate. He swore to himself never to love a woman and never to have a Luna by his side. To him, loving a woman was a weakness and as the fearless and powerful Alpha that he is, he doesn't want to give room for weakness. He's the most revered Alpha in his region and he saw women as betrayals who are worth nothing more than objects of pleasure! As if the Moon Goddess was on his side, there was no mate fated to him — until she arrived. Will he accept her as his mate or will he reject her? Will she be able to change his view on how he sees women? What other adversaries stand in their way?

The Garcia family's notorious illegitimate son — violent, obsessive, and dangerously unstable — had sent out a public marriage summons. One of us, my sister or I, was to become his bride. My father, with his career in ruins and his influence dwindling, had no choice but to agree. In desperation, I begged my boyfriend Eric Jordan to return home and make our engagement official. He did rush back, travel-worn and anxious — but only to ask for my sister's hand in marriage. Shattered, I demanded to know why. Eric frowned, his voice icy. "You're just a foster daughter of the Lynch family. You've eaten their food, lived under their roof for years. And if it weren't for Willa, you would've frozen to death on the street. Now's your chance to repay her. Don't be ungrateful." I refused to stay silent. He shoved me aside in frustration. "I told you — Willa and I are only pretending. Once she's out of danger and that lunatic forgets about the proposal, we'll divorce. I'll come back for you. However, stop embarrassing yourself like this — it's pathetic." What Eric did not know was… Willa Lynch escaped the marriage. However, I did not. Later, on the day of the wedding, as the bridal car passed the Jordan family estate, I looked out the window — and locked eyes with Eric. His face turned pale as a sheet.

🦋 Chlorothea has never believed in love, least of all marriage. To her, it is nothing more than a contract that destroys women and rewards endurance over happiness. She learned that truth watching her mother wither in a union that stole her dignity and left her to die forgotten. So when her family forces her into an arranged marriage with a powerful military general, Chlorothea vows she will never surrender her heart, no matter the cost. Lysander has lived his life by duty alone. As a man bound by honor, gratitude, and the law, he accepts an order he cannot refuse: to marry the granddaughter of his benefactor’s closest friend. He expects a quiet, manageable life, one where service comes first, and emotion stays firmly locked away. What he does not expect is Chlorothea. Unpredictable, sharp-tongued, and branded a “Little Lunatic” by those who cannot control her, she turns Lysander’s orderly world upside down. What begins as a union forged by obligation soon becomes a battleground of clashing wills, buried pain, and dangerous attraction. In a marriage neither of them wanted, can two broken beliefs collide without destroying them both or will love prove itself stronger than the scars they refuse to heal?

On the day the SAT results are revealed, the fake heiress, Layla Sanders, colluded with our homeroom teacher, Richard Hoffman, to report me for cheating during the exam. When I stared at both copies of the exam papers that showed the same steps and formulas, I couldn't defend myself at all. In order to preserve Layla's pride, my own parents actually forced me to admit to stealing the exam questions in advance. Then, they had me forcibly admitted into a mental asylum. The Sanders family claimed that I had gone crazy just so they could keep this particular skeleton sealed in the closet. They abandoned me, letting me be tormented endlessly in the asylum. When I finally escaped from the asylum, I died in a car crash that was meticulously staged by Layla. Only on the verge of my death did I finally realize that the so-called "blood is thicker than water" mentality was nothing compared to a tear shed by Layla. The moment I open my eyes again, I've gotten reborn in the exam hall. This time, I choose to submit my exam paper without anything scribbled on it. I'd like to see just how someone with a total of zero points can possibly copy off the so-called top scorer of SAT.

On the day my wife, Abigail Jefferson, and Dominic Gorman, the university student she has been sponsoring, post their pre-wedding photos on their social media feed, I don't lash out at them crazily as I usually do. Instead, I leave a like and a comment on their posts. "You two make a great couple. Everyone, let's give our blessings to the newlyweds." Everyone in elite society thinks of me as the most cowardly husband ever, who lets the side piece make a doormat out of him. One week later, Abigail comes home and explains, "This is just an act. Dominic's grandma is ill, and she wishes to see him get married before she passes away." I just nod calmly in return. "I didn't take it seriously. Of course, I believe you." In my previous life, I showed up at Abigail and Dominic's wedding to cause chaos for them. Naturally, their wedding couldn't go on because of me. Abigail began targeting my parents' company in order to punish me. My parents ended up going bankrupt and were forced to jump off a building. She had me admitted into a mental asylum, where I was tortured to insanity. Now that I'm given a second chance in life, I no longer yearn for Abigail's love. I just want her money this time. Every time she cheats on me, I'll transfer some of her assets to my name. Abigail now has three more chances before she ends up losing everything.
