Spiritual Doll

I was scheduled to die in less than 24hrs from now. And the person who conspires to put me out of my miserable life is the one who put me through hell. His hell. My husband. I didn't mind dying. I was rather happy to finally get this thing over with. You know, get over life. But just when I was ready to rest in peace, I met her. Her beautiful blue eyes glittered with tears bringing light to this moonless night. The cold breeze brought a shiver to her fragile tiny body. She looked nothing less than a porcelain doll, delicate and clean. But she scared me when she looked at me with hope. Hope to save her. I laughed at this naive little girl. How was I to save her when I couldn't save myself? Nevertheless, I extended my hand for her to take, and with some hesitation, she wrapped her whole hand around my one finger. First time in my meaningless life I felt a spark. Spark of life enlightened in me with her one innocent touch. She made me want to live a little while longer with a small innocent promise, holding me tight to live with her, for her. Cover by @Aphroditelivid

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.

The boy, George Larson, whom I once saved as a child, when he was struggling with asthma, repaid my kindness by imprisoning me for seven long years. "Luna, you're my everything. I won’t let you out of my sight," he said, his voice filled with obsession. He tied my hands and feet, keeping me bound to the bed like a helpless doll, but I did not love him; I wanted to escape. In his madness, he set fire to my family’s ancestral home. The last traces of the Sachs burned to ashes, disappearing into the wind. He said that since my home was gone, I could just live with him and that it would be my new home. However, because I refused to let him touch me, he found someone else—a girl with a beauty mark under her eye, just like mine. The girl, drunk on his affection, thought I was trying to imitate her by faking the same tear-shaped mark. In a fit of jealousy, she gouged out my eyes. My face was covered with tiny, bleeding holes, blood streaming down my body. When George came home, the girl gleefully stuffed me into a trash bag, proud of her handiwork. “George, look! I caught some trash that broke into the house!” George did not even glance at me. He just loosened his tie, his voice calm and detached. “Just toss it where trash belongs.”
