eighteen amethyst

"I've destroyed your face. Let's see how you'll seduce men now!" "I want to pluck all your hair too. Let's see how you'll seduce other married men!" The woman screamed while she cut off Mei Shu's hair. She then directly stabbed the scissors into her head and put an end to her pitiful life. Mei Shu had already been bedridden for over ten years. Her face was practically unrecognizable. Her four younger brothers were either injured, crippled, sick, or barely alive. This was all thanks to the woman next to her bed. Many years ago, Mei Shu's mother died in a car accident. Not long after that, her stepmother moved in with her stepsister, Mei Mu. Mei Shu's stepmother found a way to send Mei Shu to the countryside. After that, Mei Shu's stepmother and stepsister slowly took over all the Mei family's possessions. When Mei Shu was about to turn eighteen, they brought her home. The only reason they did that was to acquire the inheritance her mother left behind. After that, they kept plotting and scheming against her. They sowed discord between Mei Shu and her four younger brothers. Until the day Mei Shu died in the hospital, her brothers still had no idea she wasn't the one who started the fire that ruined their lives. After dying, Mei Shu refused to move on. She reincarnated to the time she was seventeen with her own system. She wanted to change her fate and rescue her brothers! In their previous lifetime, she and her brothers treated each other like enemies. In this lifetime... "Mei Shu, I'll do anything you tell me to," her first brother said. "Who dares to bully my sister?" Her second brother asked. "Mei Shu belongs to me!" Her third brother exclaimed. "Do you wish to marry my sister? Let's see if you have what it takes!" Her fourth brother uttered. [System: Quest completed! You'll be rewarded with a husband!"

In order to be loved, she changed her whole personality, but all she got in return was a cold husband and her unrequited feelings. Now that she lost her memories and went back to her old self, she's determined to never love again. She wouldn't let anyone trample on her anymore. But then, why is her husband coming back around again - turning over a new leaf and wanting to take her back so desperately? "You should know well by now, my beloved wife. Didn't you change yourself for love...?" he muttered vehemently, voice low and smoky. His unwavering eyes are blazing with passion and a deep sense of endearment that she'd never seen before. This isn't her husband at all - instead of cold, his gaze appears to be on fire. "The same goes for me... So, love me, love me not - you're going to take responsibility." --- Impassive, strait-laced, stiff and very compliant - that's how everyone sees Cassidy Eleanor. She's an underdog wife who's desperate to gain her husband's affection and would even sacrifice her own freedom. Coming from an unknown background, she was neglected by her spouse, persecuted by his family, and misjudged in her workplace. That's all until it came to a point when she already had enough. In an effort to flee from the clutches of a loveless marriage and all the obligations that were forced on her, she got herself a ticket and boarded a plane. Little did she know that a bombing incident would ultimately ruin her plan to start anew. Then, before she knew it, she woke up to find herself with a type of amnesia that caused her to forget everything that happened to her when she's past the age of eighteen-years-old. To be exact, Cassidy had gone back to her old self - right before she met her husband, Adrian Millicent. --- Cold, distant, steely and iron-willed - that's how everyone sees the owner of the country's richest conglomerate. Adrian is known to be a prodigious figure in a variety of fields and commerce, a prestigious individual with billions of assets, and a man of outstanding achievements overall. He used to be the most-sought-after bachelor of the country, but only to get in an arranged marriage by his grandparent - with a woman of unknown origin, to boot. He really couldn't care less, though. After all, he never needed love to begin with. That's all until Adrian found this reserved and amenable wife of his acting like a wild and boisterous teenage girl one day. -- WFP #23 Gold Tier Winner -- [Warning: Mature Content] (Cover Photo Not Mine: Credits to the original artist) - Follow me on Instagram (acieetin) - DM me on Discord (Aciee#1841)

Sebelumnya ia harus melewati padang salju dan lorong kecil yang gelap, jadi wajar kalau benaknya kini dipenuhi pertanyaan. “Grandpa, tempat apa ini?” Sang pria tua berlutut di hadapan cucunya sebelum dengan lembut ia menjawab. “Penduduk lokal menyebut tempat ini Benua Amstell.” “. . . Benua Amstell?” Sang anak perempuan memiringkan kepala mungilnya sementara kakeknya melanjutkan. “Delapan tahun yang lalu Grandma menemukan tempat ini secara tidak sengaja, sayangnya di tempat ini pula Grandma meninggal. Jadi, maukah kau membantu Grandpa menjaga tempat peristirahatan terakhir Grandma ini?” Sang anak perempuan mengangguk mantap sebelum menjawab. “Tentu saja, Claire akan menjaga tempat ini dengan sekuat tenaga.” Sang pria tua lalu menoleh ke arah pemuda di sampingnya sebelum berkata. “O’Neil, kau tahu aku dan Samantha memperlakukanmu seperti anak kami sendiri, dan kami tahu kau memutuskan masuk militer karena tidak mau bersaing dengan Robert dalam mengelola korporasi yang akan kami tinggalkan, meski bakatmu dalam berbisnis jauh lebih baik.” “. . .” “Tapi setidaknya berjanjilah kau akan membantu Claire menjaga tempat ini, karena begitu keberadaan Nouel diketahui, seluruh dunia akan memperebutkan tempat ini.” “Anggap sudah terlaksana.” Jawab Sang Pemuda dengan kasual, namun Sang Pria Tua seketika tersenyum karena ia tahu anak angkatnya tersebut tidak pernah mengingkari kata-kata yang ia ucapkan. *****

In a world where truth blurs with illusion, and glory is steeped in sin, Daniel is born a man unlike any other. He does not fully know who he is, yet in his blood flows the silence of kings and the cry of the slaughtered. He is the stranger among his own, the unknown feared by thrones, the heir unacknowledged by history. Amethyst of Eternity is a tale steeped in mystery, following a hero forged of contradictions: mercy that conceals a beast, and a beast that yearns for truth. It is not a classic tale of heroism, but a psychological journey through old wounds, blood, and tattoos that speak when all else falls silent. Here, enemies are not always clear, and allies never permanent. Everything is fragile—even identity itself. The novel weaves a dark, secret-laden world where power is not given but seized, and truth is not light, but a blade that cuts more than it reveals. As for Daniel, he is the question no one dares to ask… and the answer everyone fears. Amethyst of Eternity is not merely a novel . It is a broken prophecy of a lost identity, of merciless secrets, and a truth… that no one survives discovering. Read it if you dare to step into a maze with no exits. For not everything that gleams is amethyst... And not everyone who is silent has forgotten who they are.

Warning: This story features Sexual Content. For Adults only. A witch summons a Demoness to be her familiar. It doesn't go as planned, and all hell breaks loose. Inspired by the pulpy sword and sorcery of Robert E. Howard's Solomon Kane and the dark fantasy of Joe Abercrombie's The Blade Itself, this story is set in a rich, Holy Roman Empire-inspired world. The narrative primarily follows Jenny Nachtdorn, a novice witch driven by a quest for revenge against those who burned her mother for supposed witchcraft. This quest leads her to summon Dravisha, a baroness of hell, as her demonic familiar. At its heart, the story explores the complex, transactional relationship between Jenny and Dravisha. While Dravisha's ultimate goal is to fully possess her summoner, their dynamic constantly shifts between uneasy alliance and subtle antagonism, with Jenny making profound sacrifices for her revenge, even as Dravisha grapples with an unexpected attachment to her witch. The setting is the Ecclesiastical Domain of Hochwalden, a province within the Holy Imperium of Farugia. Ruled by Prince-Archbishop Heinrich von Falkenstein, the Domain is steeped in fear and religious zealotry, with the Inquisition wielding extensive power in its mission to eradicate witchcraft, heresy and demonic influence.

“You’re eighteen now?” he whispers, his fingers brushing her lips. “Then don’t run from me this time.” Elara thought the kiss was nothing serious, just a silly dare with a dangerously handsome stranger in a bar. One kiss. One moment. Yet neither of them could forget it. The next day, that same stranger walks into her house… His name is Anderson. Her stepbrother-to-be. Her new teacher. Her first mistake… and the one she wants to make again. He tells her to stay away. He tells her they crossed a line. He says it can never happen again. But the minute Elara turns eighteen, everything changes. His control cracks. His jealousy burns. And the boy who once told her “no”… starts kissing her like she already belongs in his bed. Dangerous. Forbidden. Addictive. Some lines aren’t meant to be crossed, but he’s ready to cross every single one for her.
