LOGINOne month later, Crystal's boyfriend became our third honey source.The process was similar to before. After he became completely controlled by Heart-Eroding Honey, he obediently followed Crystal to our shop. He was terrified to his core when he saw the beehive, but it was already too late."Please spare me..." he cried and pleaded, but the buzzing soon drowned out his voice.Crystal stood aside, looking coldly at her former boyfriend being drained dry. There was no pity on her face, only a content smirk. She murmured, "You wouldn't have deceived me if you knew this would happen to you."A new honey source was born. Crystal joined my mother and me in the shop. She began to lose her sense of taste, and a golden glow appeared in her eyes.She proposed, "I want to help you. I know there are still many scumbags like my ex in this world."My mother was very satisfied with Crystal's transformation. She taught Crystal how to identify suitable targets and use the allure of Heart-Eroding
Two months later, Dewy Honey Shop's business was only improving. More women kept coming in, and I became more and more proficient.Today, a new customer came in—a young girl no more than twenty years old. She timidly walked into the shop, her eyes red and swollen. She had clearly been crying."Do you really have that kind of honey here?" She asked in a low voice."What kind of honey?" I pretended not to know."The kind... that makes men obedient. " She blushed. "My friend introduced me to this place."I understood now. She was another girl who had been deceived and whose feelings had been toyed with by a player. "Yes, we do have it, but it's very expensive.""It doesn't matter. I have money." She took out a bank card. "My boyfriend cheated on me and used my money to support his mistress. I want him to pay the price."I had heard too many similar stories before. Men always did this—they sweet-talked women to gain trust and then turned their backs on them."Come with me." I led h
"Why do they fall for it so easily?" I turned my head to look at my mother beside the operating table. She used tweezers to pick up a thin needle that shone with a silvery glow. A glistening honey drop hung on the tip of the needle, refracting an eerie glow under the dim light. My mother's wrist trembled slightly, and the silver needle precisely pierced the pore of another beehive. She did not even look up. "Because of desire."Amid the soft clinking of metal, she slowly put away the silver needle, and the honey in the glass jar rippled with fine waves."The more greedy a person is, the more easily they are drawn to the scent of Heart-Eroding Honey. They always think they're the hunters, able to buy whatever they want. They're entirely unaware that from the moment they reach out their hand, they have already become prey in the honey pot."Jason was visibly shrinking, his skin collapsing layer by layer like his bones were being withdrawn.Finally, he shrank into a writhing, transl
I always fell into the same abyss at midnight.Distorted and agonized faces emerged like ghostly flames in the dark. Nicholas and the other men whose names I could no longer recall had their bodies pulled and squeezed by invisible threads. Their mouths were wide open, yet they could not utter a sound.That silent howling felt like the sharpest ice spikes piercing straight into my mind.Nicholas' face was the clearest. His once handsome features were squeezed together. His eyes were full of pleading and malice, as if accusing me of being heartless.Whenever the morning light seeped through the gaps in the curtains and woke me up, that sweet and sticky honey that had been lurking in the depths of my mouth and soul would surge up like a tide. It was rich and domineering, instantly washing away all the unease and chill the dream had brought.I extended my tongue and licked my plump and rosy lips. The flavor seemed to be the essence of Nicholas' soul's greed and corruption after being
"Nicholas, come closer." I extended my hand toward him, my fingertips gently brushing against his jaw.He obediently leaned closer, like a bewitched lamb, his eyes following me with a hazy gaze. "Rosalie, you smell so good today."I smiled, but there was no emotion in my eyes.I could feel tiny golden specks twinkling in my eyes. Every blink was like a honey-coated hook into his heart.My lips emitted a deadly sweet fragrance, and I knew it was the awakening of the Heart-Eroding Honey power within me."Is that so?" I whispered close to his ear, each word dripping with honey, sticky and alluring. "Do you want more?"He had completely lost the ability to think, leaving only instinctive desires. He mumbled incoherently in his throat as he nodded frantically.I held his hand and led him to the buzzing beehive in the backyard like a priest guiding a sacrifice towards the altar.My mother was already waiting there, holding several glimmering silver needles that I had never seen befor
What was even more terrifying was that countless translucent bees were buzzing within the containers. They had no wings or mouths, so they closer resembled wisps of distorted souls as they swirled rapidly around the blurry humanoid mass, greedily feeding on it.My mother's voice echoed behind me, cold and indifferent. "Heart-Eroding Honey is made by extracting the soul essence of the greediest and most corrupt men, brewed in the beehive using a special, secret method. When they were alive, they exploited others to the fullest. After they die, we transform their desires into the most powerful temptations. Their bodies will become eternal honey sources until they are completely drained dry."She pointed toward one of the honey sources that was twisting violently.Within that blurry humanoid mass, a face of extreme pain suddenly became clear. It was the husband of that wealthy lady I had seen!He was notoriously famous for his greed when he was alive, but now, he was silently roaring
