Reborn as the Psycho Villainess Who Ate Her Slave Beasts’ Contracts

At twenty‑nine, she was the youngest CEO in the tech industry—NetVault Security had gone from small startup to Fortune 500 in just six years. The media called her a prodigy. Her board called her unstoppable. Her therapist called her alexithymic. Unable to understand or describe her own emotions. The elevator chimed. Elara didn’t look up. Only one person had after‑hours access. “You’re late,” she said. “The investor meeting is in twelve hours. Did you review the—” “I’m not here about the meeting.” … “Ugh.” Elara lost her life that day at the hands of her mentor and adoptive father. By the next morning, the same people who once called her a genius and praised her to the sky were calling her a coward who killed herself to escape scandal. Then Elara woke up. Not in her office. Not in a hospital. In a different world. In a different body. She was now Elara, the Fourth Princess of this so‑called great kingdom—only to find that this princess was an utter pushover, completely useless in everyone’s eyes. No one feared her. No one respected her. Even her own palace was full of other people’s spies. How is Elara supposed to survive this palace battle, when seven princesses fight in the shadows and she’s known as the weakest one? And can she ever escape this place… or will she decide to win instead? … … “Your Highness, please… ugh…” The leash of light around Mahir’s neck—the head of the knights—tightened with a soft pull. His face flushed red, and not from pain. “Princess, here.” Ken, the strongest beast knight, knelt closer and held out a small pill between his fingers, guiding it gently to Elara’s lips. “Swallow it,” he said quietly. “You used too much power today.” On the floor below the bed, three beastmen knelt in a row, broad shoulders tense, ears twitching, their eyes fixed on her with dazed focus. Thin, glowing leashes of magic ran from their collars to the bands at Elara’s wrists. “Please…” Ken’s voice dropped, rough and a little hoarse. “Put your foot here.” He touched his gloved hand to his chest. “On me.” Elara sighed, half annoyed, half amused, and rested her foot lightly on his armored chest. All three of them drew in a sharp breath at the same time, faces turning even redder as the magic between them flared. Their eyes—gold, amber, and deep brown—looked up at her with the same lost, devoted gaze.

[BL] DYNAMIC HEARTS: The Doctor and the Basket ball player

--------------------DROPPED---------------- In the bright lights and dark streets of Los Angeles, two men from different worlds are about to find the love they never knew they needed. Alejandro "Alex" Ramirez is a 25-year-old rising star for the California Suns basketball team. Tall, strong, and handsome, with warm brown skin and dark curly hair, Alex grew up in the tough neighborhoods of East LA. Basketball saved him from the gangs and danger around him. Now he's living his dream—scoring dunks, hearing fans scream his name, and winning big games. But even with all the fame and money, Alex feels lonely. No one truly understands him, and real love always seems out of reach. Dr. Ethan Hayes is 28 and already one of the best dentists in California. With light blond hair, bright blue eyes, and a kind smile that puts everyone at ease, Ethan owns a successful clinic in downtown LA. Patients love him because he fixes smiles perfectly—whether it's crowns, implants, veneers, or root canals. He works long hours and wins awards, but his personal life is empty. Past relationships didn't work out, and he fills the quiet nights with more work. One dangerous night changes everything. After a Suns game, Alex is heading to his car when a gang shootout erupts in the street. Bullets fly, people scream, and Alex spots a man trapped in his car right in the middle of the chaos—Ethan. Without thinking twice, Alex pulls him out and they speed away in Alex's SUV to safety. Shaken but alive, they park by a quiet beach under the moonlight to calm down. Talking turns into something more. A spark ignites. [Parked by the sea, Alex and Ethan laughed about the close call. "I can't believe we just escaped a shootout," Ethan said. Alex smiled. "Life in LA, man. But you're safe now." They got out and sat on the hood of the car. Stars shone above. Without words, Alex leaned in. Their lips met in a soft kiss. It was electric. Hands explored, hearts raced. Kisses grew deeper, bodies pressed close, and passion took over in the back of the SUV—intense, raw, and unforgettable. "I should go," Ethan said after, breathless. "Thanks for saving me." Alex nodded. "See you around?"] They didn't exchange numbers. It felt like a perfect moment that had to end. Three years pass. Alex becomes a superstar—league MVP, championship rings, and endless highlights with crossover dribbles, three-pointers, and powerful dunks. Ethan's clinic grows even bigger, treating celebrities and winning awards for his expert work. Then fate steps in again. During a tough game, Alex takes a hard elbow to the face and cracks a tooth. The team doctor sends him to the best dentist in town—Dr. Ethan Hayes. When their eyes meet in the exam room, shock turns to joy. Old memories flood back. Coffee after the appointment leads to dinner, then to passionate nights that pick up right where they left off—explicit, loving, and full of heat. This time, they don't let go. Love blooms fast and deep. They share mornings in bed, cheer at games, support each other through busy days, and build something real. But danger isn't finished with them... Alex's old life comes knocking—gang... taking notes
