The King's Beloved

Hi Beloved Readers!

Welcome to another EXTRA chapter!!! And Happy 200 Chapters to us!!! <3

How are you all? Sorry for my slow updates but I'm currently stockpiling right now so I can go back to daily publishing for this book. Just a bit more and I'll get there. I'm planning on having the last 2 months or maybe three of "The King's Beloved" to have published chapters daily for you to enjoy. <3

Also, I would just like to thank each and everyone of you again for all the love and support you gave my very first book, TKB, from last year up to now. Because of all of you,  I won Nomination Awards at last year's AllNovelFull Spirity Awards Spring 2020!

Truly, it's all thanks to all of your love and support! T_T I couldn't have done it without you all. Thank you very, very much from the bottom of my heart! T_T

I'll be joining again this year and hopefully, I win again. I'm so shy but I'm gonna be shameless and ask all of your support once more. XD Please check out my new story by searching for it in the app.

Title: "A Beautiful Catastrophe"

Genre: Contemporary Romance

"Do you have regrets in life? As for me, of course I do. Lots of them in fact—my short life span, wasted youth, unfulfilled potential, and worse, no love life. If you're given a chance to live once more, will you take it? You bet I will! And this time… I'll make sure to do all the things I want! Live my dreams and fulfill my potential! This time… I'll make sure to be happy—and maybe, fall in love too."

- Senara Lee

Synopsis:

"You are the author of your life. It is your choice to either fill it with joy or tragedy."

A dying woman reminisces on her short life and comes to regret not doing the things she likes—always sacrificing her own happiness for her family. On her deathbed, she whispers her wishes to a friend.

"If only I could go back in time… I'll make sure to live my life for my sake and not somebody else's."

Little did she know that her impossible wish would come true with the help of a mysterious woman. And in her second chance at life, she meets a certain problematic person…

"Kaiden Ma." Both the goal and envy of many men around the world, this young and handsome genius, who is also the heir to "Red Dragon Holdings", has a little problem. One—he is way too grumpy; and two—he is mysophobic. With his family pushing him in a relationship, the problem escalated. For how can he possibly be in a relationship if he can't even touch anyone? Due to this, he is forced to look for a suitable "pretend" partner.

"Senara Lee. I'd like to offer you a deal."

"Hm? A deal? What deal?"

"I need a fake girlfriend and you're the only one who's trustworthy enough to assume the position. Be my girlfriend for a year and I'll make one of your books into a movie."

"For real?! You bet I'm in! Anything for my babies!" (babies—she's referring to her books, yes, she calls them her babies).

And so, their hilarious and catastrophic game begins… Well, at least until the "Guardians of Fate" comes in.

Here's a glimpse of Chapter 1 for ABC (A Beautiful Catastrophe)

"Take care of your brother for me."

That was what my mom always used to say to me. From when I was a mere kid, up until I grew to be a teenager, and even when I became an adult. She was kind and loving, though sickly. And my brother was too young—we had a big age gap of five years. As for my dad, well… don't ask.

Whenever she would say that, me who loves my mom so much, would always reply…

"Yes, mom."

"Of course."

"Anytime."

"Always."

Since my mom was sick, we had no Dad, and my brother was too young to take on work, the responsibility of upholding our family was left in my hands. "Bread-winner" was what they called people like me. It's very common in Asian countries—or maybe even in the western ones. Sounds nice yes, my relatives would always compliment how filial I was but nobody completely understood how "heavy" that burden really was, especially for the young me back then. I was merely sixteen, and I had to abandon college to work my ass off… in order to support our family.

Over the years of working, eating, sleeping, and repeating the same process with no goal in life, I would admit that... I began to question myself.

'If I keep on taking care of my brother… Who will take care of me?'

==============

This one is light and more of a romantic comedy, though it will be a bit dramatic in the beginning. There's a bit of fantasy in it since it's a reincarnation story but there's no major misunderstanding, ridiculous or unrealistic drama, or over the top villain/s with unreasonable demands and motivation of making the lead's life a hell. XD

If you're fans of "It's Okay Not to be Okay" kdrama, or "Kaichou wa Maid Sama" anime, or "A Beautiful Time With You" comic, this story is kind of a mixture of all those, but not entirely. It just has, hopefully, the same vibes as those things I mentioned. 

I have published 18 chapters since Monday so far and will maintain a 1 chapter per day schedule.

I hope you all help me VOTE with POWERSTONES on for my new novel. Leave reviews and comments, too, and let me know what you think of the book. This will be my first contemporary romance story and in first person POV as well. Any feedback will be highly appreciated. More PS, more chapter updates as well! I currently have 47 chapters stockpile on that one, all scheduled to publish one daily up to May. I hope you all enjoy it while I'm stockpiling for TKB. <3

For those who voted for "Something Indescribable" to be the story I write next, I actually started it but since it's like TKB, I need more time to prepare for the complex and unique story that you loved. It took me a whole year to conceptualize everything for TKB, but I started this idea way back last year so just a few more months and it will be ready. <3 Sorry for the delay. I thought it's better to give you a quality story than just the usual tropes and clichés. 

Also, my book cover for that one looks so cool so do look forward to it! XD Even their costumes are so pretty! Hopefully, I get richer and be able to hire an artist to draw it as a webtoon since I really want this one to be a comic, same with TKB. Unfortunately, I don't have the capability for that yet. XD

Once again, thank you all so much for everything! I hope you're all doing fine. Don't forget to love yourself, be safe, healthy, and happy. <3

Lots of Love,

Macy_Bae

PS. Tomorrow's chapter will be dope so make sure to stay tuned! (っ ͡❛ ᴗ ͡❛)っ
