Di dunia Qingxia Realm, setiap manusia diwajibkan membangkitkan inti spiritual sebelum usia 18. Siapa pun yang gagal, terutama perempuan, akan dijadikan tumbal ritual atau dijual sebagai selir kelas bawah bagi bangsawan korup. Lian Yue, gadis dari Klan Lian, telah dicap sebagai “gadis tanpa bakat”. Sejak kecil dia dihina, disisihkan keluarga, dan dianggap tidak berguna. Malam sebelum ulang tahunnya yang ke-18—hari terakhir sebelum nasibnya ditentukan—dia menemukan lukisan kuno yang terlarang di gudang lama Klan Lian. Saat darahnya menetes pada lukisan itu, tersegel sebuah roh kuno pria muncul: Xuan Nightblade, Kaisar Iblis terakhir yang ribuan tahun lalu diberangus para dewa. Terikat oleh kutukan, ia menempati tubuh Lian Yue sebagai wadah sementara. Keduanya berbagi napas, emosi, bahkan desir halus hasrat yang tidak pernah Lian Yue pahami sebelumnya. Ikatan itu membuat tubuh Lian Yue dipenuhi energi gelap yang kuat—kekuatan yang dianggap terlarang oleh sekte-sekte besar. Dengan kekuatan itu, Lian Yue selamat dari “Upacara Penentuan Nasib” dan malah menarik perhatian banyak pihak: – Sekte Bintang Surya yang ingin menjadikannya murid – Klan Lian yang takut rahasianya terbongkar – Dewa-dewa yang ingin menyegel Xuan Nightblade untuk kedua kalinya – Dan para bangsawan yang menginginkan Lian Yue sebagai selir kontrak karena auranya yang berubah menjadi menggoda Di sisi lain, Xuan Nightblade mulai menguasai lebih banyak tubuh Lian Yue: dia bisa muncul ketika Yue ketakutan, marah, atau… terguncang secara emosional. Setiap kontak spiritual membuat keduanya semakin terikat—bahkan ketika Lian Yue ingin menjaga batas, tubuhnya bereaksi pada sentuhan roh itu. Ketika mereka akhirnya menemukan catatan kuno tentang cara mematahkan kutukan, Lian Yue menyadari sesuatu yang menakutkan: Semakin kuat dia, semakin kuat pula keinginan Xuan untuk menjadi manusia kembali—dan mengambil tubuhnya sepenuhnya. Di tengah cinta terlarang, bahaya yang mengintai, dan rahasia masa lalu yang perlahan terungkap… Lian Yue harus memilih: Membebaskan Xuan Nightblade dan mempertaruhkan tubuh serta jiwanya— atau menghancurkan.

At the engagement party, the champagne tower is only half-built when Marcus Harrison answers a phone call. He glances at me and says, "I have to go. Lily collapsed at the airport." I say, "If you leave, we're done." He leaves anyway, in front of 200 guests. He carries Lily Bardot in his arms, wearing the coat I gave him, as he drives away in my car. The next day, he sends me an email that reads, "Lily will be moving into my apartment. She needs me, and I hope you can understand. Once Lily gets better, we'll get married. Please trust me." I stare at the screen and suddenly laugh. So what he wants isn't someone who loves him. It's someone who needs him. And I'm too independent, so I don't make the cut. That evening, I scroll through my contacts and find a number I've never given a second glance to. It belongs to someone who's been waiting for me for 23 years. I dial it. "Tomorrow night, 7:00 pm. Meet me at the restaurant by the sea."

It took him three strokes until he was holding my neck, lifting me, and pinning me on the wall as he choked me. He breathes the smoke in my face but I was losing air in my lungs to inhale it. "I've searched for you and you're giving me this crap?" he hissed in my face. "Try something else, Alexa, or I'll bury you alive." He let go of my neck, I gasped for air as my lungs took all the air it needed. It's better if he ends my life anyway. I thought to myself. "Where is it?" he asked as he stood beside the table. "Where is what?" He lifts a tattered knife in his hand as he walks slowly to where I stood now. "I'll carve my name in your chest if you don't stop acting dumb, Alexa." He traced the neckline of my dress with his knife. The pointed cold blade sent shivers all over my being. "Where did you bury my father!?" ~~ [Mature Content] Photo credits to Nikola Jovanovic
