One night, an assassin breaks into your home. After taking care of his enemies, you are next.

To stay alive, you pretend not to notice anything amiss, even though you are blind, and throw yourself at him, calling him "Honey."

Just as you are about to draw the villain to death, he drags you into the comic.

The settings you came up with become deadly traps, and he holds you as he smiles with chilling madness: "My divine one, if you die here with me, the one you loathe, would that count as a lovers' suicide?"

I Only Want Otome Stories, Not Original Female Leads! Make Them Easy to Self-Insert Into!

Looking for books like Yokohama Blind Spot Observation Log: Bungo Stray Dogs. Do not recommend anything unless the author has clearly stated that it is a female-oriented romance. Don't recommend stories disguised as female-oriented romance that actually feature an original female protagonist. If I see one, I'll block it and start a new thread. Also, don't recommend authors whose stance is questionable. Keep it safe for everyone, and don't leave anyone out.

I want to read something similar to "[Self-Insert] After Entering a Transmigrated Game, You Are Always Coveted by NPCs." Something along those lines. Don't recommend stories with a female lead. Otome stories should revolve around yn, too. No female lead, and nothing written in third or first person. Any genre is fine.

I've finished all four worlds! They were so good! All of them had happy endings and the male leads were completely innocent. 1️⃣ The first world was about non-humans, which was funny, heartwarming, and sweet! I declare that aliens like Heinz can come to Earth 🌍 A warm welcome 👏 2️⃣ The second world was about a modern Taoist priest.

This is so delicious! This author is simply divine. It's terrifying how well every story caters to my every whim, respecting my preferences so much. Every male lead in every world is so appealing and lovable. If there's any shortcoming, it's that the author can't update 10 chapters a day; it's just not enough!

It's so good! The writing and plot are top-notch! It's so enjoyable, so blissful! Tears are streaming down my face. Please, please, goddess! Just consider it feeding the chickens, cluck cluck cluck cluck. You win, sister! You've completely defeated me this time! You've shattered my mental defenses! I'm utterly broken! In front of you, I'm just a stray dog soaked in the rain.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ General MacArthur once said, "Teacher, your writing is truly amazing! The writing is superb!" This is the most emotionally resonant otome (adult) novel I've ever read. It's not the kind of story where you're just a character in a suit and it's all about lust and not genuine emotion. It truly evokes feelings.

Wow, this is awesome! The author doesn't even know how delicious their writing is! After reading it, my depression is cured, my child's dysregulation has disappeared, and I don't need to cut pig's trotters anymore. I want to read 200 copies of this every day! This is awesome!

Oh my god, doesn't anyone find this particularly scary? I'd never heard of this author before, but I love everything they write. When reading episodic stories, I usually remember the first story the most vividly and likes the most, which makes the later plots less memorable, and I might even drop it halfway through. But every single one of these stories is so delicious! Oh my god, I have no obligation to dislike them! Super, super, super good!

I like reading NP novels, so I scratched my head and skipped this book many times when it was first recommended. But yesterday, I don't know why, I suddenly clicked on it and started reading. The immersion is great. I rarely read this kind of story, but I've only read two worlds so far, and I really enjoyed it so much that I couldn't help but leave a comment.

The very first chapter was amazing! The writing is incredibly delicate, and I absolutely love the pacing. The later chapters, especially the part about the meaning of home, really elevated the story. I want more stories like this! I love you, author! Please update more often! 🥰🥰
