"In the world full of choices, I have only you!" *** Excerpt: “Marry me!” At the commanding voice, Yun Meiyi turned around with a scowl. And there he was with a face sculpted by the best artists in heaven and a body designed to torture the most defying soul in hell, he looked like any male, she had fantasized about, while reading the romantic novels. But there was something in his impeccable beauty that cautioned her against him. As if it was the call of heaven asking her to reject him straight away. “Look for someone else, I am not interested.” She said and then turned away, finding his words meaninglessly arrogant. But just as she turned, his warning came teasingly, “Are you sure you want to defy me?” Her frown deepened as she turned to ask, “What’s so special about defying you? Are you a lord of some kingdom whom one can’t defy?” The man’s lips curled up in a devilish smirk that looked like a part of his nature. “Even better. I am the Prince of Darkness. The Devil of this universe.” *** She was a human... He was the Devil of the Universe! She was betrayed... He could be called anything that meant deceit! She was poisoned ... While his existence was on stake! Without their knowledge, their fates were intertwined. Making her, his only Survival choice!! ______________ Update Schedule: Monday, Wednesday & Friday.

Yesterday, you were a legal shark in Saint Petersburg. A man who knew exactly what the law cost and how to move the pawns on the chessboard of power. Today, you are thirteen-year-old Alyosha Morozov. The son of a destitute nobleman, living in the attic of an old mill and falling asleep to the growl of your own empty stomach. You have no magic, no "system," and no powerful patrons. But what you do have is memories of the future, ice-cold calculation, and a crystal-clear understanding of how this damn Empire works. This is 19th-century Russia. A time when a single stroke of a pen can grind a man to dust, and rank means more than life itself. The local nobility treats you like trash, and distant relatives are already carving up the scraps of your inheritance. But they have one problem: they have no idea who they're dealing with. You won't be swinging a saber on the battlefield. Why bother, when you can command those who do? You won't become a mere merchant. Money without power is just a target on your back. You will choose the most dangerous and lucrative path of all. The path of a government official.
