Summary
Contrary to what everyone in the ton claimed, marriage was an ugly game and love was a fool’s deception used as a cover to hide that truth.
You could see it very clearly, even when those around you could not.
In your opinion, anyone who believed in the existence of love was either naïve or pitiful and you were neither of those. If this was indeed a game, you were going to win it, regardless of how many feelings were hurt in the process.
People called it heartless. You called it smart.
Love was a plague on people’s hearts, a lie at best and a trap at worst, and you were determined not to let it catch you off guard ever. Even the night before your debut to the society, you laid in bed wide awake, repeating your plan in your head over and over again until the shadows of the night were chased away by the first rays of the sunlight.
But the ironic thing about that perfect plan of yours?
Life had a different one in the works.

Summary
While trying to take down a drug cartel that deals with memory altering drugs, things go awry, and Batman wakes up with no recollection of the last five years.

Summary
You shoved the stack towards him, and when he reached out, your hands bumped.
How to describe it?
An electric shock.
And then, a cacophony of sensations.
You knew, right then, how it felt to be bare-skinned and in warm, firm arms – they were wrapping around you in your sleep, they were throwing you over his shoulder as you shrieked and beat your fists against his back. You heard the vibrating timbre of his voice against your ear, felt the taste of his lips crushing into yours and leaving soft, sweet nothings down your shoulder blades, to the base of your spine. You felt the ghost of him cupping your cheek, gripping your hips as you arched above his body.
He felt the same thing, you could tell, because he was staring at you like you were from Mars.
Those arctic eyes held yours. You didn’t say anything – just stared.

The law is clear: whoever correctly answers three riddles will marry the prince, while all who fail are to be executed. The people live in fear as more challengers try and fail, and the throne grows bloodier with every passing year. But a young prince, nameless and in exile from his home, believes there may be more to this brutal challenge than meets the eye.

Summary
"You never do anything to enjoy yourself, so I’m going to continue to make fun of you until you realise that life isn’t entirely about straight edges and neat shelves.”
“Life isn’t about dirty clothes on the floor or marijuana either.”
“I know.” Ten closes his magazine as an old woman enters the store, flashing her his signature, friendly yet suspicious smile. “Getting fucked in the ass and making people question their sexuality is what life is really about, and one day soon you’re gonna realise that.”
The woman turns on her heel and exits the store as swiftly as she had entered, and Ten sends her back a cute little wave. “You have a nice day now, Ma’am!”
“You’re fired,” Doyoung says, mortified for so many different reasons. “You’re so fired this time.”-
OR Doyoung meets Jaehyun and realises that sometimes deviation from routine can be something good.

Taeil tapped one of the chopsticks against his dewy glass. “Friday, though. Friday I have no classes, no plans...I’m free all day.”
Youngho gave a smile of his own. Just as slow. Just as automatic. “Even better. Less waiting.”
“Youngho.”
He laughed. “See, that’s what I’m talking about. That’s home.”
