A Love Story Entwined with Misunderstandings in a World of Chaos and Survival! What starts as an exciting trip to Paris quickly turns into a nightmare when Heesoo’s plane crash-lands, leaving her stranded in a zombie-infested parallel world. In this brutal realm, where outsiders like her are treated as slaves and violence reigns supreme, survival seems impossible—especially in a place where she can neither understand nor speak the language. Captured by ruthless men intent on enslaving her, Heesoo faces the horrifying prospect of being left to die at the hands of zombies. Just when all hope seems lost, a man with piercing emerald-green eyes miraculously saves her—a beacon of strength amidst the chaos. “Get lost, unless you’re looking for trouble.” Her savior, Calix Clovis, a holy knight and relentless zombie hunter, is the epitome of strength in this cruel world. With no other options, Heesoo clings to him as her only lifeline. Yet, as their journey unfolds, the language barrier between them breeds endless misunderstandings, while an unspoken tension of desire simmers beneath the surface, threatening to ignite. Heesoo finds herself falling for Calix, drawn to the man who saved her. Calix, too, feels a growing attraction to her, but as a holy knight, he views such desires as sinful temptations and fights to suppress his feelings. ‘What am I supposed to do with this woman?’ Helpless and unable to survive without him, Heesoo becomes his burden—one he knows he should abandon. Logic demands he leave her behind and continue his fight alone. Yet no matter how hard he tries, Calix cannot bring himself to let her go. “When we reach the city, we’ll never see each other again. Got it?” Calix tells himself she’s nothing more than a thorn—insignificant yet irritating. But the longer they travel together, the deeper she embeds herself in his soul, sharp and impossible to remove. Her presence unsettles him, forcing him to question everything he once believed, leaving him to wonder: would removing this thorn cause more pain than keeping it? Will Calix pull the thorn free and walk away? Or will he surrender to the feelings that pierce him deeper with every step they take together? #Romance #Sexual #Misunderstanding #Fantasy #Zombie #Obsessive Text copyright ⓒ 2024 by MaCherie All right reserved.

"I'm coming to cut out my baby from your stomach myself." They called me Rose, but they forgot one truth: every rose comes with thorns. I trusted my husband. I loved my best friend. They repaid me by poisoning my father, stealing my inheritance, and locking me in a basement to rot—six months pregnant. I died watching them wear my jewels and laugh at my misery. Then fate gave me a second chance. I woke up at my father's funeral, the taste of betrayal still fresh on my tongue. They think I'm still the same soft, grieving heiress they can drug and manipulate.

From the funeral podium to the boardroom, I'm reclaiming my power piece by piece. But as I rewrite my destiny, my enemies are evolving. Worse, the man who should be dead isn't staying buried. How far am I willing to go to win? And when the thorns I've grown finally draw blood—will I be the one holding the blade, or the one bleeding out?

A cursed grimoire, written in blood and ash, has survived the flames of its creator. Six centuries later, Professor Léandre Vauvert receives a forgotten fragment that leads him to a ruined abbey. There, he discovers that the Codex of Blackthorn is not a simple book... but a living organism, a labyrinth of ink and flesh that reads its readers as much as they try to read it. Each page demands a pact. Each pact demands a sacrifice. Arielle, the fallen medium; Yuri, the haunted monk; Milo, the occult hacker; and Sister Elora, the exorcist marked by inverted prayers, will have to choose between revelation and damnation. For the Codex awaits its true host. One goal: to write the Eighth Circle, a new Hell conceived by men themselves. And the last page, still blank, requires only one ink: theirs. > "Tell me what you desire... and I'll tell you what you're willing to lose."

In the ancient realm of Tianzhou, spiritual energy once flowed through the world like rivers in the sky. Great sects rose, immortal cultivators battled across mountains, and beasts guarded forgotten ruins. But after a catastrophe called The Shattering of Heaven’s Gate, most of the world’s spirit veins dried up, leaving cultivation to slowly die. In a poor mountain village lives Lin Yue, a quiet seventeen-year-old boy mocked for having a broken spiritual core, which means he can’t cultivate like everyone else. While working in the forest one night, he falls into a hidden cave beneath an ancient withered tree. There, he finds a black jade ring containing the soul of a long-dead cultivator known as Master Xuan, once feared as the “Heaven-Severing Sage.” Master Xuan reveals a secret: Lin Yue’s core is not broken—it is sealed. Inside him lies the Last Spirit Vein, a fragment of the world’s original heavenly energy. If awakened, it could restore cultivation to the realm… or destroy it completely. To unlock his power, Lin Yue must enter the cultivation world, join the Azure Cloud Sect, survive rival disciples, secret assassins, demon beasts, and ancient trials, and uncover who caused the fall of Heaven’s Gate. But the deeper he goes, the more he learns that the great sects are hiding the truth: the world’s spiritual energy did not vanish naturally—it was stolen. Now hunted by powerful elders, shadow clans, and a mysterious masked woman who seems to know his destiny, Lin Yue must choose whether to save the cultivation world… or burn it down and rebuild it from nothing.

And Lan Xiyue will break every rule to keep the omega who should never have entered the sect. A hidden identity. A dangerous fate. A bond even the heavens cannot stop.
