Shades Of The Exorcist's Smile

Lìngxiāo is the same boy Chóng Fēi believed he had killed indirectly by exposing him. Since the day Lìngxiāo was born, he has carried a strange condition that never lets him show pain or anger. As an independent exorcist with no controlling clan above him, he roams the land with three burning aims: to save the common people from darkness, to clear his own name—from his own father's murder—and to unravel the mystery behind the man who raised him before disappearing right after he learned to stand on his own. Was his father killed? Or was there something deeper than that? Who was that bloodless "uncle" who used to teach him what is distraction and what is destination? Were those teasing words—"A wave of pleasure"—something more than what he took too long to understand? Soon, his destiny took an unexpected turn. His hometown Yún Xi calls him back—not as who he used to be, but as a professional exorcist. A town haunted by a Red Robe Ghost, where no exorcist who answered the call has ever survived. When Lìngxiāo arrives, a silent surprise awaits him. Nineteen souls. Twenty deaths. But wasn't it supposed to be only one ghost—the one hunting the very heir of the clan in nightmares? That heir is Chóng Fēi. He has spent fifteen years carrying the weight of a death he believes he caused—the death of Xiǎo Lìng, the boy who once protected him from his father's cruelty. He has spent fifteen years loyal to a ghost. He has spent fifteen years trapped between his father's control and the skull mummy who haunts his every step. Now, Chóng Fēi finds himself drawn to the mysterious, perpetually smiling exorcist. Something about Lìngxiāo feels familiar. Something about him makes Chóng Fēi want to trust—and want to run. He doesn't know that the man he's falling for is the same boy he's been mourning. During the investigation—through a ballad of needles and fear, all for the sake of keeping the heir alive—Chóng Fēi's one-sided longing grows into deep love. It becomes his reason to walk slower. To share belongings. To share his trauma. And Lìngxiāo, who has been searching for answers about his father and his uncle, begins to realize that the demonic energy haunting Yún Xi isn't just around him. It's around Chóng Fēi too. The ghosts are not the villains. They are victims of someone else—a mastermind who has been watching, waiting, pulling the strings. And there is more than one. The unknown one seems to be above the other. Can someone who roots for power and legacy move for the songbird whose nature is flying around, searching for his origin? And who even bothered enough to raise a hopeless boy without purpose—only to leave just when he had started to fly high and wanted to hear that simple "Do not worry, boy"? Let's find out on the surface of tears and smiles—which is not even the start or the end, but the middle of something far more complicated but ends into someone else's epic—Black Peacock's Tearstone Cultivation. (will come soon : connects to all spin offs) Bonus book: For The Four Arms, One Soul [a book inspired by Chóng Fēi's shelf! say thanks to him for being such a story bug!]

I'm the only exception to Mr Dark heart's Demon.

Being framed for murder was bad, but marrying a demon to survive was downright terrifying. Han Raviel was a man with a heart that wasn't beating, having been reborn as a demon after dying in the hands of his lover. And so, he didn't love… didn't forgive. He was ruthless to men and even more to women. But An liyue needed to survive. And as though destiny had quietly pointed at her, Han Raviel suddenly needed a wife — definitely not out of love. A contract was tossed in front of her. one year. just one year to be a married couple. After that, they'd part ways. Han Raviel didn't need her more than that duration. However, to An liyue's detriment, the contract carried a demand tied to life and death. " You must provide a reason why I shouldn’t eliminate you… after the contract expires." Han Raviel said, a cold smirk tugging at his lips as a faint red flicker passed through his eyes. ___ ___ An Liyue stared at the door in front of her, the door that led to a completely different world inside Han Raviel's mansion. The door that only two people had the right to enter. Just then, she heard a frightened voice, “M-miss, how did you get here?” Truth was, she didn’t know how she got there herself. She just stood, staring blankly. " Miss," the servant's voice came again, more urgent, " The last person who attempted to go in... " the words died in his throat as he shaked his head, " Miss just leave now.. " However, it was too late. " what's going on here? " If the voice wasn't recognisable, then the red eyes were... An Liyue swallowed as the owner of the low, magnetic voice walked slowly towards her... she backed up until she came in contact with the wall. A smirk appeared on Han Raviel's lips as he got close to her... too close An liyue felt her chest might meet his if she breath harder. and then came his voice again, " Are you just being foolish...or playing ignorant... " he paused taking in the feminine features of her face, " ever since entering my world... when last did you ever see anything, just anything close to being a woman?...not even the cooks are... " he paused as he looked at her neck. An Liyue couldn't help it as her body trembled and her heart thumped wildly in her chest. And then, Han Raviel held her neck, tender at first but then he tightened his grip, causing An liyue to cough, " At times...I want to do this to you...I do it with any other that looks like her, all of you women...deceitful creatures! " he said with such rage evident in his eyes, but the next moment, they softened as he released his grip on her neck, " why can't i do it to you..." He said and with his closed, he ordered, " leave here...now! " Leave? How... Did he forget she was still trapped under him?

Top Assassins Call Me The Lady Boss

WARNING: MATURE CONTENT!Ahmet's laughter was like a slap in the face. "You think you're in a position to negotiate with me?" he sneered. "I don't think so, Asli. You'll do what I say, or suffer the consequences. Do you want more time to outsmart me? No.” She could play his game. She certainly could do that before she finally killed him. A mischievous grin formed on her lips. "What would you gain from sleeping with me?" she asked, trying to keep her tone neutral. "You're not exactly known for your romantic conquests. And we're rivals, not to mention the fact that our families would kill us if they found out." She paused, her eyes narrowing. "So, what's the real motive here? What could you possibly gain from this?" There was a pause on the other end of the line, and for a moment, Asli wondered if she had caught him off guard. But then, Ahmet's smooth voice came back, dripping with confidence. "I’m glad to know you are well-informed about my romantic conquests. Let's just say, Asli, that I have my reasons. And as for what I'd gain… well, that's for me to know and you to find out." His tone sent a shiver down her spine, and she knew she had to tread carefully. She wasn’t going to win this against him. “Show me what proof you have and I will give in to your demands.” With that, she hung up the call, feeling a small sense of satisfaction at being the one to end the conversation this time. She was the only woman in the male-dominated Mafia world. Did he think he could subdue her so easily?

"And trust me, Hellcat…" His orange eyes glowed faintly, his wolf shimmering beneath the surface, "…you will," Another Excerpt from the book: Something fluttered in her chest and she slowly looked up at him with trembling eyes.

I know I'm older—far older," he said, his voice low and steady, like he was confessing a sin he had no intention of repenting for, "but that changes nothing for me." Theo's heartbeat stuttered again. Sylas took one step and faced her properly, "When I'm with you," he continued, "The chaos stops. The noise stops and the world stops trying to tear itself apart," His eyes stared into hers, open and unflinchingly honest, "You are the first thing in a very long time that doesn't feel like a war," Theo's breath hitched, and his voice deepened with a quiet tremor beneath the calm, "Do you know what that means for a man like me?"
