I Mistook the Hidden Identity of the Sub Male Lead
https://www.novelupdates.com/series/i-mistook-the-hidden-identity-of-the-sub-male-lead/ "Completed Season 1. Better than I thought, binge in one sitting. Art really improved, the story flow got a bit better (still weird asf pacings here and there) and they’re slowly revealing things. BUT THE CROWN PRINCE bro was a total red flag in the start with plans to put mc in a cage and all that crazy shit. I started rooting for her with the duke instead. And now that S1 has ended, he’s definitely toned down the obsession a bit. Anyway romance overall is on a slow burn." Also, he can read minds apparently and she doesn't know about it. I have seen that art before, but I don't remember the name. It was the story of a white-haired FL and her black-haired step-brother, then ended up together at the end. There were murders and even suspicions that the FL killed the ML's parents.
I Will Be Next to the Main Character
We follow our FL Elena starting the day Sirius Hyperion came to her duchy. He is a thorn to the Emperor since he is his younger brother and illegitimate. Both FL and ML were 10yo. The thing is, Sirius was born in the form of a wolf. It follows the legend of the imperial family but he is the 1st in over 300y. And the CP went mad and killed anyone who insisted that Sirius should the the rightful heir (even his own father!). But couldn't kill the divine legitimacy of his family aka Sirius so instead he locked him up in a cold palace and when he turned 10yo he exiled him. He was sent to the Rhodes Duchy far up in the North bc the Duke isn't known for being nice. The Rhodes Duchy used to have 7 children : the oldest went into the forest but never came back, the 2nd oldest died while trying to develop poison resistance, the 3rd killed herself bc of the pressure from the Duke (9yo), another one died while his sword test (10yo), and the 6th he died from a severe cold (5yo). Leaving behind, still alive, the 4th child Courtney, the 5th Joseph, and our FL the youngest. And the Duke didn't show any emotion besides annoyance so yeah, not nice. Oh and the Rhodes's pride are golden eyes and Elena is the only one to have them that bright (the Duke has gold in the middle but red around). Never seen that bright before so the Duke is extra pissed at her. They can read other people's emotions and the closer to gold they are, the stronger they are (so the Duke has the power but less powerful I suppose). Elena can even feel what they feel if someone touch her and the legend said she could also see the future (I guess it's the novel). At first, the Duke treated her well but one day he strangled her and was surprised that even though she has golden eyes, she didn't avoid him. Starting that point, he tested her to see if she has powers or not. She didn't know about the power back then (not understanding the mist she saw around people) so she just sucked it up and said nothing. Until at some point, he thought she was useless and then the other children started to bully her. NB : The Duke Hugo isn't her real father, he killed him, it was his older twin brother Linus (ref. ch19-20). Her mother was Stacey (also got killed) and they were the ones who chose her name. He killed him because he eloped with Stacey and he obviously wasn't allowed to do that, so he had to pay with his life. It was also bc since Elena had the perfect eyes, he wanted her for himself so the parents had to go. Oh and the mother of the other children died after giving birth to the 6th child. In the novel, Sirius managed to make anyone bow to him or kill them. Even killing 10 of his fiancées because it wasn't a romance novel but a fantasy one with a revenge plot. Bro was too cruel for that lmao. Elena planned to stay away from him but of course, that's not what happened. NB : Elena didn't read this novel in her past life but after she died ! She was like in an in-between dark place, floating with just this book, and before she could finish it, she got reincarnated. And there was no 7th child in the novel so Elena didn't existed.

Paradise Intruder
"A cool looking male lead with a personality, non generic fantasy world (at least at a first glance) and an interesting conflict of people who changed over time into completely different people (at least him) and YET, rape as the first fucking thing that happens… WHY CAN’T WE HAVE GOOD THINGS."
The Regressed Son of a Duke is an Assassin
We follow Cyan Vert (yeah I know, odd name) who got killed by his brother Aschel because he was afraid of him and called him a demon or wtv because he controls some dark fog and is an assassin. He was tasked by his father to be in Aschel's shadow and do wtv is needed for the clan. His father is the Duke Vert. Anyway, after dying, he went back in time 27y or so when he was 10yo, a year before he entered the academy. He woke up on the day of a duel with Cranz Vert, his half-brother who is the same age. His mother is Margaret Erzeth, the duke's wife. The first time, he got mocked bc of the fight and became a laughing stock to everyone and it was after that that his father stopped paying attention to him. Since Cranz bullied him even while in the academy, letting him go easily was a no-no and Cyan won the duel. Thanks to that his father noticed him and said he would become a great support for Aschel, his obsession with this son still the same as ever. So Cyan decided to ruin everything Aschel wants or tries to do or smth like that. As a reward, he asked to be sent to the battlefront (Lemea Valley). Since he had some time, he went to retrieve his demonic dagger hidden deep in a hidden temple that wasn't supposed to be found before 20y. And he took the end piece of the handle of the light sword that Aschel will own (the same that he used to kill Cyan). Anyway, he went to the frontline and used that to get plenty of hellhounds's blood to get stronger and more mana. EDIT !! Oh so I stopped because like I feared, this has romance. And of course, the worst kind : a harem (of 5!). And the loli dragon girl is part of it. HELL NAH. I'm out. I had a hunch because of the amount of women and how they are drawn (can we talk about how their boobs are sticking out so much?).
