"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.

Yun Meiyi didn't know why but at his words like that, her heart beat hard and fast within her chest. Something was there in his words, his tone, and the intensity with which he was looking at her that made her feel nervous. As if she was guilty of something that she knew she wasn't responsible for.
"But I am a human?" She tried her best to not stutter. But her breath hitched when with the same swiftness as her words, Lu Xifu slid closer to her. Enough for them to fight for breathing the same air.
"And that's the mystery that I am trying to solve?"
"You mean …?"
His hands came up to cup her jaw on one side, "Why are you like this? Why do you affect me like this? Why being just a human, unknown to the mystical world, why do you possess such a power over me?"
