Synopsis

500,000 years ago, we already lost our chance to be together because of duty. "Misfortune shall fall on the ones who try to defy their fate." We are not destined to be together, that is what they told us. Even if we forgot our past, destiny still wanted us to meet again. This time, I am the princess of the Sky Clan, and he is the Demon Lord. Whose blood in the future will be on my hands. (Book cover done by me. Images from 616pic website)

Chapter 1Prologue

New Characters in this chapter:

Yu Hua

The reincarnation of the enigmatic Demon Princess Ruo Yin, Yu Hua is the Princess of the Sky Clan. With no memories of her former life, she radiates a serene grace mixed with an unintentional air of mystery. Her natural charisma and sense of justice make her beloved by her people, though her sharp wit and impulsive streak hint at her fiery past. Despite her amnesia, faint echoes of her former self occasionally surface, causing her to experience hauntingly vivid dreams and unexplainable bursts of power.

Lan Lan

Yu Hua's spirited best friend, Lan Lan, serves as the Flower Deity of the Flower Clan. Her playful nature and quick thinking often lead her and Yu Hua into mischief, though she always has her friend's best interests at heart. Beneath her lighthearted demeanor, Lan Lan hides a deep wisdom and an unshakable loyalty to Yu Hua, making her a steadfast ally. She wields her divine control over flora with elegance, often transforming the ordinary into breathtaking beauty.

Yue Feng

The noble and protective Crown Prince of the Sky Clan, Yue Feng is Yu Hua's devoted older brother. Known for his strong sense of duty and unwavering commitment to his family, Yue Feng is a natural leader who inspires respect and admiration. His love for Yu Hua is boundless, and he is fiercely protective of her, sometimes to the point of overbearing affection. 

Zhi Ge

The ambitious and vivacious Fifth Princess of the Southern Sea Lord, Zhi Ge is the soon-to-be Princess Consort of Yue Feng. Though her royal upbringing has made her graceful and charming, her longing for Yue Feng's attention drives her to extremes. Intelligent and strategic, she often devises clever schemes to win his heart. Despite her outward confidence, Zhi Ge wrestles with feelings of insecurity, particularly in the shadow of Yu Hua's bond with Yue Feng.

Sky Emperor Quan Liang

The austere and commanding Sky Emperor, Quan Liang rules the Sky Clan with an iron will. Ascending to the throne after a devastating war five hundred thousand years ago, he has grown colder and more calculating than his predecessor. He demands perfection from his children, particularly Yue Feng. He harbors some hidden dislike towards Yu Hua. His icy exterior masks a lingering sorrow for the loss of his father and a determination to prevent history from repeating itself. 

--------------------

"Hua Hua, slow down! I can't keep up with you!" Lan Lan called out, breathless as she chased after Yu Hua.

Lan Lan, the newly appointed Flower Deity, had been Yu Hua's best friend since they were children. Despite being the little princess of the Sky Clan, Yu Hua often escaped the confines of her palace to visit the Flower Clan, where they would spend their days laughing under the vast canopy of cherry blossoms. Those blossoms, always in full bloom, were Yu Hua's favorite part of the Flower Clan.

With a playful twirl, Yu Hua halted mid-run and turned back, her eyes alight with excitement. "Xiao Lan, the river is just up ahead! Run faster!" Her laughter filled the air as she spun around and darted forward again, her black, silky hair catching the breeze. Cherry blossom petals danced around her, tangling in her hair like an impromptu crown.

Known throughout the Immortal Realm as the most beautiful immortal, Yu Hua carried an air of effortless grace—until it came to magic. Her spells were infamous for their unintended consequences. Once, while trying to rescue a nine-tailed fox trapped in a tree, she had accidentally transformed it into a startled housecat. From that day forward, she was forbidden from using magic unsupervised.

"I… I can't run any faster!" Lan Lan gasped, struggling to catch her breath.

When they were younger, Yu Hua's elder brother, Yue Feng, would often join them on their adventures to the Flower Clan. But now, as the Crown Prince of the Sky Clan, Yue Feng's royal duties kept him tethered to the palace. Lan Lan, with her lighter responsibilities as Flower Deity—maintaining the balance of seasons in the Mortal Realm—still had time to indulge in these playful outings with Yu Hua.

Today, their destination was the legendary Thousand Tears River.

Nestled deep within the Flower Clan's borders, the river was one of its greatest marvels. Its tranquil waters shimmered with an otherworldly glow, and its beauty was rivaled only by the myth that surrounded it. It was said that long ago, a grief-stricken water immortal had wept here after the death of her lover, her endless tears forming the river. In despair, she cast herself into its depths, her spirit merging with the waters. The myth claimed the river now held the power to reveal glimpses of the person you loved most.

"Zhi Ge wasn't wrong—this place really is stunning," Yu Hua thought aloud as she neared the river's edge. She cupped her hands around her mouth to shout back at Lan Lan, "Wah! The river is so beautiful!"

Zhi Ge, Yue Feng's future Princess Consort, was the Fifth Princess of the Southern Sea Lord. Although Yue Feng was indifferent toward her, the marriage had been arranged by their father, Sky Emperor Quan Liang. Yue Feng had seized the opportunity to strike a deal with her father: if he was forced to marry Zhi Ge, then Yu Hua would be free to choose her own partner.

What Yu Hua didn't know was that Yue Feng had agreed to the marriage only to secure her happiness. Nor did she notice the simmering resentment that burned in Zhi Ge's eyes whenever they met.

Lan Lan, trailing behind, couldn't help but wonder why Zhi Ge had recommended the Thousand Tears River to Yu Hua. Though it seemed like a kind gesture, an unsettling feeling gnawed at her. Something about this didn't sit right.

Finally reaching the river, Lan Lan stopped, her breath catching—not from exertion, but from unease. Yu Hua, who had been so lively moments before, now stood still, her excitement extinguished.

"Hua Hua, are you okay?" Lan Lan asked, her voice tinged with concern.

Yu Hua didn't respond. Her gaze was fixed on the shimmering water, her expression unusually serious.

"Hua Hua, don't scare me like this!" Lan Lan cried, taking a hesitant step closer.

After a long pause, Yu Hua finally spoke, her voice soft and laden with an emotion Lan Lan couldn't quite place.

"Lan Lan," she asked, "why is fate stronger than love?"

Mated To An Enemy

Torn between the man she has loved for the past two years and the cold Alpha of an enemy pack, can Ashleigh figure out which of these men she truly wants to be mated to?

For two years she has eagerly awaited her eighteenth birthday so she can finally be married and mated to her love, Granger. But just before that magical day she runs into a significant problem: she finds herself bonded to another wolf. Her fated bond happens to be Alpha Caleb of Summer, the man whose father was supposedly murdered by one of her own. As if that wasn’t enough, every pack is suddenly reporting attacks from rogue wolves. Now Ashleigh is faced not only with a war in her heart, but one in real life. Will they be able to work together, putting aside all their heart ache and pain to keep their packs safe from the enemy that threatens them all? Or will this love eventually become their downfall? **Note from the author** 1. This is a slow burn for FL and ML 2. Trigger warnings all around. Abuse, trauma, gaslighting and manipulation. These themes are present all throughout the book in different ways. 3. This book is not just about the FL and ML, the cast of characters and side characters are full of rich backstories and their own chapters that play into the central plot of the story. 4. FL is young, she is flawed and she WILL piss you off. We all need time and experience to grow up. Join my discord server:

Defy The Alpha(s)

Two centuries after the Great War, peace between humans and werewolves was finally achieved, or so everyone believes. Werewolves reign like gods, and humans remain blissfully unaware of their true place in the new world order. To maintain this fragile balance, each year, a handful of "lucky" humans are selected from various districts to attend Lunaris Academy, a prestigious institution that promises glory, status, and a chance to mingle with the elite. Those chosen are hailed as the lucky few, destined to marry powerful alphas and rise as luna. This year, Violet Purple is among the chosen, much to everyone's surprise. For an orphaned girl adopted by a disgraced prostitute, this is a golden ticket to a better life or so she's told. But Lunaris Academy isn’t the paradise it’s painted to be. Everything Violet and her fellow humans have been taught is a lie. Humans are far from equal; they're pawns in a much larger game. The academy is nothing but a gilded cage, and the students are lambs led to slaughter, playthings for the alphas to toy with in their ruthless games. To make matters worse, Violet catches the attention of the most dangerous players in this game, the Terror Four: the Alpha of the North, Alpha of the South, Alpha of the East, and Alpha of the West. Each one is more dangerous, more twisted, and more powerful than the last. But even among themselves, the alphas are divided, each with their own deadly ambitions. Yet, they all have their eyes on her. They expect Violet to play along, to fall in line like the others who worship at their feet, to break under their games. But Violet isn’t like the others. She refuses to bow. She’ll defy them all. *********** With a grin that made her uneasy, he handed the application to her. “Approve this one.” Principal Jameson’s curiosity got the better of her as she took the paper from him, her eyes scanning the text. Almost immediately, her breath caught in her throat, her eyes widening in disbelief. “What the...?” “It’s perfect, isn’t it?” Asher’s voice was almost gleeful. Fucking psychopath! Jameson could hardly believe what she was reading. “Mr. Nightshade, with all due respect, this applicant….this girl just admitted to—” She couldn’t even finish the sentence, still horrified at the explicit nature of the application. Taking a deep breath, she continued, “I’m sorry, but I cannot approve this.” “She’s issued me a challenge,” Archer said, a dark gleam in his eyes. “What?” “‘Wait till you see me in bed,’” he repeated the bold line from the application, his grin widening. “And I can’t wait to find out.” “Mr. Nightshade—” He stood up, cutting off her protest as he fixed her with an intense stare. “Approve the application. I won’t ask again.” Without waiting for her response, Asher strode out of the office, confident she would follow his orders. He always got what he wanted. Archer Nightshade walked down the hall, a spring in his step. For the first time in a long while, he felt alive, his blood pulsing with excitement. The other Cardinal Alphas had no idea what he was up to, but it would soon hit them. He’d just set the game in motion. And the target was Violet Purple. It was game on. Note : This is not your average werewolf story. Eveything you think you know about werewolves would be challenged in this book. And yes, it is reverse harem. Do give the book a try.
