Three years of devotion. Three years of loving Julian with everything she had. Only to be framed for a divorce and personally sent to prison by him. "I didn't kill her," Evelyn begged. "I didn't kill the woman you love." "I don't believe you." Facing a death sentence with no one to turn to, Evelyn made the most desperate choice of her life — she threw herself at the one person Julian would never forgive. His younger brother. "Get me pregnant. Please. It's the only way I survive." Because pregnant women are not subject to the death penalty. By the time the truth surfaced and Julian realized the woman he destroyed was innocent, it was already too late. He dropped to his knees. "Eve, I was wrong. Give me one more chance." A hand caught his wrist before he could touch her. "She's already my wife, brother."

Her first time carrying out a system mission was to win the heart of Xie Jinbai. To teach him to understand love and affection, Cui Lingyao married him. After two full years of marriage, she finally completed the mission and chose to leave the world, but the system informed her that Xie Jinbai's Love Value was full, passively triggering a one-year cool-down period.

I walked the edge of the road from school with my best friend one day. I turned my head in my right side and then I caught a glimpse of something. There I saw a handsome man across the road with his house clothes and a woman jogged before him- trying to synchronize them both. I smiled at the romantic view I was seeing. "Daddy!" I called my father out. He turned to me and smiled as soon as he realized the caller. "Oh! My princess!" he called back right to me. I opened my arms running, ready to hug him but a second was passed by, I felt myself in the middle of the road slowly falling. I think I ran by a fast vehicle. It felt like the earth was in slow motion. "What happened?!" my mother exclaimed from afar. I saw both my parents and my best friend were running toward me. I saw the terrified and worried looks of them. Thinking though, I just realized that life isn't that predictable. Earlier today, my bestfriend and I were so happy about the results of our grades but at this moment, tears of sadness overtook everyone. If I shouldn't had walked the road since we had a car to ride home. If I could think wisely earlier, I shouldn't had stepped the road without looking around and ran basically without thinking that it was a road where fast vehicles run through. If I could go back in time, I won't do such things that can let me down. It can't be helped though, there's nothing much of time to atone for the wrong movement I did because it had already happened: a past; but the past I could rely on as moral lessons today and forth. Thud! Ouch! This hurts much! I fell down on this filthy road with the faint sound of the vehicle who ran into me and the screams of the people who cared for me. I felt and tasted the blood which came out from my mouth and my sight went black. In conclusion before losing consciousness, I should be thankful of the life that God given to me; that I get to experience being alive than those who couldn't make it unfortunately.

“She was death, and he was life. They were never meant to collide—let alone fall for each other.” Mellisent grew up believing she was nothing more than the daughter of a great soldier. Her father taught her to fight, to survive, and never to depend on anyone. Now, with his death behind her, she has one goal—to become a warrior worthy of his legacy and forge a destiny of her own. Determined to rise beyond the life she was born into, she enters Vaelora Academy, a prestigious institution where humans and other supernatural bloodlines train side by side. There, she meets a man who seems to embody everything she despises—power, arrogance, and divine blood. The son of a god. What begins as rivalry soon turns into something neither of them can control. But the closer they grow, the more the truth threatens to tear them apart. Because Mellisent is not who she believes herself to be. Born beneath a Blood Moon, she is the child at the heart of an ancient prophecy—one that foretold the end of a king’s reign, his death, and a threat that would one day reach all of Aelyrith. And the bloodline sleeping within her belongs to something far older—and far more dangerous—than she could ever imagine. He is the son of the very power that stands against everything she was born to become. As ancient bloodlines awaken and buried truths begin to surface, Mellisent and Valerian will have to confront the destiny written long before they ever met—and the love they never meant to have. _ _ _ _ _ “You don’t know what you’re getting yourself into, Valerian,” Mellisent warned as a pair of strong arms pressed her against the cold wall. “I know exactly what I’m getting myself into.” His voice dropped to a whisper as he leaned closer, their breaths mingling. “I’m like a moth drawn to a flame.” Mellisent’s breath came in small, uneven puffs. “I’m not a flame.” Her eyes held his. “I’m an abyss. And an abyss leaves nothing behind but ashes.” A slow, knowing smile touched Valerian’s lips. “Then I’ll gladly burn.” And his lips descended onto hers.
