“I see that you’re my host for the day, can I have the pleasure of knowing who you are?”

“Your mom.”

Taishin was a guy who had it all—a meticulously planned career, spotless academic track record, president of the prestigious Tenjou University, and ace of the class.

He was the man, the moment and the legend. His life was his own personal chessboard where he’d planned every little maneuver. He was a plus size hero with no minuses to his life at all. Mistakes? Taishin knew none of that.

Until he first met this asshole of a prince from the neighboring country who had him thinking that maybe jail time for murder wouldn’t be so bad.

“What,” the prince asked disbelievingly, “did you say?”

Taishin fired without hesitation, “That you’re a royal pain in the ass and a walking menace who needs good ass-beating.”

Modern, Modern Fantasy

“Business World” chronicles the Machiavellian rise of the Si family to supremacy in the business realm. Employing intricate schemes, they managed to overshadow their biggest adversary, Lu Huan. Employing a facade of matrimony, the Si family strategically wedded, designating their most compliant ‘black sheep’ as an expendable pawn.

In a stroke of literary dexterity, the formidable Lu family was irrevocably shattered by the machinations surrounding this ostensibly ‘insignificant’ member.

Lu Huan’s consciousness was abruptly rekindled before his fatal car accident, igniting a surge of pent-up resentment and granting him a second lease on life just before his nuptials.

Confronting the marriage certificate, Lu Huan’s lips curled into a sardonic grin, “Very well.”
