[Excerpt] "You must be the Director," the five-year-old boy said, looking Bastian St. Yves up and down. "I am," Bastian replied coldly. "And you are late." "And you have dark circles under your eyes," the boy countered. "My mommy says men who frown too much end up lonely. Is that why you live in a big castle all alone?" [Synopsis] Everyone knows that Bastian St. Yves, the cold-hearted movie emperor, has only loved one woman: his late wife, Anaïs. For five years, the world believes he has mourned her, refusing to let another woman into his heart. But Anaïs isn't dead. She is hiding in plain sight as Agent Eve, a ruthless talent manager who has sworn to never let Bastian control her again. When Bastian unknowingly casts his own son, who is a rude, genius five-year-old, as the lead in his new tragedy, he finds himself dangerously drawn to the boy's mysterious mother. She smells like his supposedly dead wife. She trembles when he touches her. And she hates him with a passion he doesn't understand. Bastian is determined to uncover Eve's secret. But Anaïs is determined to protect her lies. Because she knows the truth: if the Tyrant of Cinema finds out the boy is his, he won't just want forgiveness...he’ll declare war for custody.

Hi! My name is [Redacted], but most people just call me Focaccia Bread — or Foca. I’m writing this mostly for fun, but also to share my stories, my questionable life choices, and the music that somehow came out of them. Come along for the ride as I recount how I accidentally built a successful entertainment company and somehow helped create actual music legends. Fair warning: I do not tell stories in order. My brain jumps timelines like a fever dream, so expect chaos, time skips, and zero apologies. I’m weird. I’m quirky. I embrace it with both arms and half a bagel. I know — I’m cringe. But at least I’m free. XD If you wanna listen to the Jams (Music) appearing here, you can go listen to them in YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@FocacciaBread-Music) or Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/artist/0ecDiwv85yqoktTR4h569L?si=CHJzNohaTwiTgukcKickMQ) and other streaming platforms.

In order to repay the Chihaya family for the kindness of raising him, Chihaya Tetsuya has always been striving to become a "top-tier fashion designer." However, what Chihaya Tetsuya fears even more than the treacherous and cruel fashion industry ahead is, surprisingly, the several girls behind him who have always supported him— Togawa Sakiko: "Tetsuya-kun, please entrust your life to me." Hoshino Ai: "I'm willing to be your one and only dress-up doll forever." Nagasaki Soyo: "Having lost once before, I will never let go again." …………………… "Tell me... what in the world am I supposed to do, Anon?" "It's okay, Brother. You don't need to pay them any mind at all." Facing the helpless Chihaya Tetsuya, a faint smile appeared on Chihaya Anon's face. "Because I'll take care of you for the rest of my life, Brother." "...Eh?" In this world, Chihaya Tetsuya, today as well, is struggling desperately. …………………… MyGO!!!!! + Oshi no Ko Worldview --- Cover belongs to jiawenqing03 Reupload..

Elara’s first life crashed hard. Cruel tricks ruined her name, broke her dreams, and turned the whole entertainment world against her. Friends betrayed her. Lovers sold her out. Everyone she trusted stabbed her in the back. The pain piled up until she felt trapped with no way out. One night, she couldn’t take it anymore. She walked to a river and ended it all in the cold, quiet water. Later, proof came out. Messages. Recordings. Everything showed she had been framed. People posted apologies online. But it was too late. She was already gone. The universe, though, clearly has a twisted sense of humor. Because somehow, Elara came back. She woke up in her own past, every awful memory still sharp in her head. Right then she made a promise she would never break: protect her grandfather no matter what, and never let anyone push her to that dark place again. This time she steps into the entertainment world with her head high. She trains harder, sings better, fights smarter. The same people who once crushed her? Now they get to feel the pressure. Love? Not happening. Her heart is locked tight. But why is it that as she rises and shines brighter, handsome, powerful men start circling her—guys who never even glanced at her in her previous life. The actor smiled at her during a press interview, leaned closer, and said softly, “We should have dinner sometime.” The footballer sent flowers so big they blocked her room door. The surgeon she met at a charity event checked her pulse and then forgot to let go of her wrist. The singer she collaborated with kept calling her name during rehearsals, as if the mic could not hear him well enough. Elara stared at the ceiling one night and sighed. She only wanted to sing. Why did everyone look like they wanted to adopt her, date her, or both? But the worst one came after a concert. The lights had just gone off. Her ears were still ringing. Sweat clung to her neck. She had barely stepped backstage when a shadow blocked her path. She looked up. The CEO of the greatest company in Aurelia stood there. The same man who once said her voice was “not worth investing in.” The same man who had made her life a living hell. Now he held her wrist gently, but firmly. “Let’s talk,” he said. Elara blinked. “About… sponsorship?” “No,” he replied calmly. “About marriage.” Her brain froze. “…What?” “I will give you everything,” he continued, as if asking for a glass of water. “Resources. Protection. Freedom to sing. Become my wife.” Elara stared at him, her mouth open, her thoughts running in circles. This was not how it was supposed to be. Why was the world now skipping steps? NB: This story is set in a fictional world. Aurelia is a country. Solmere, Veston, and Starfall City are the three capital cities of Aurelia. Other cities, such as Lorien and Crelou, are smaller cities. * * * * * Contains few queer characters, messy relationships, slow-burn romance, and some dark themes.

Charles Kosonen walked into a hidden bar one night expecting nothing but a good drink. He had only visited on one of his random whims, something to spice up his endlessly boring days as a man born with everything, yet utterly dissatisfied with everything. He quickly found a seat at the bar. Then he noticed a beautiful girl lingering by the stage, chatting with the band like she was their singer. Beautiful, she was, with those brilliant blue eyes, deep as sapphire, and her long black hair flowing carelessly down her back. But in the world he lived in, beauty was always in abundance, and for a pair of eyes so used to gems, even a shining jewel could start to lose its luster. The corner of his mouth lifted into a faint smirk. He'd come for the drinks, as one of his business partners had praised when recommending this place. The singing was merely an extra. Or so he thought. The moment the liquid in his crystal-clear glass touched his lips was when the girl took the stage. The moment the cold sip slid down his throat was when her lips parted. And then she sang. The glass froze in his hand. If an angel could sing, why would she choose to descend into this hidden bar, of all places? The song wasn't a particularly popular one. The band behind her was just C-class amateur. And yet, with her voice alone, she took the song, polished it into a gemstone, and made it hers. He looked around the room. It wasn't just him, but every single man present there that night had their eyes glued to her, their face a mesmerized expression. A decision was made. He would have her under his wing, no matter what it cost.
