No, the fault lies with me. I have yet to revise the earlier chapters and often overlook some errors. Thank you for pointing this out. I'll review this chapter and Iimprove its clarity.
Writing this novel is harder than writing the other books I'm writing. It consumes a lot of my time. I'm merely writing this book as a creative output, something I want to write for myself, not for Webnovel. I do not care if this book gets recognized by readers or generates income, as its purpose is solely for my selfish need to create a novel without restrictions from Webnovel or the influence of my readers.
I apologize if it takes me time to release the next chapters, but one thing is for sure: I won't drop it. It may take months or years to complete it, but I already have the ending in mind.
Thank you so much for picking up and liking this novel despite the conflicting reviews and feedback from the other readers. If you've reached this chapter and are waiting for the next ones, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I admit this book has a lot of flaws, and there are many things I need to improve, but I enjoyed creating this world and the characters, no matter how flawed they can be.
xoxo,
anjee
Is it? I didn't put a completed tag on it. No, I'm putting this on a long hiatus as I have yet to finish the complete outline of this story. I might pick it up again if I manage to get extra time to work on it.
Feng Suyin never thought she would lose her life and years of hard work on her wedding day. Adopted by the prestigious Feng family, she strived to prove herself a worthy member. However, who would have thought that her younger sister and her fiancé were secretly in love? It was only in the end that she realized that the person who truly loved her was the one she deemed as her academic rival for many years.
After dying miserably in their hands and waking up one hundred days before her death, Feng Suyin vowed to prevent it from happening again. With her newfound knowledge, she was determined to protect herself from the betrayal that had led to her demise.
As for Ji Yuzhe, who loved her secretly for many years…
"How about we marry?"
The blind man snapped his head towards Feng Suyin and glared at her, although he couldn't see her anymore. This woman had suddenly drunkenly barged into his home only to propose marriage.
"You must be out of your mind." He said coldly.
"Well, pardon me for asking. Your brother seems to like my sister more than me. He probably thinks I'm a potato." She shrugged.
Ji Yuzhe pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling a headache coming his way. It didn't occur to him that Feng Suyin moved to his side, her face inching closer towards his, catching him off-guard.
“I might be a potato, but at least I’ll be your sweet potato.”
Book 1 of the Brides of Darkness Series
For hundreds of years, Calaren Town had been offering virgin maidens to fulfill their part on the treaty they made with the Court of Shadows to keep their small town under their protection. To be chosen meant death to the townsfolk, as there was no turning back to becoming a human again.
Upon realizing that her younger sister was chosen as one of the maidens to be sacrificed by their impoverished town to the thirteen demon lords who once ruled their land, Iris Scarborough volunteered to take her place instead to save her.
There was nothing exceptional about Iris, except for the secret she was keeping from everyone. However, even before she was taken away, Iris had already caught the eye of one of the demon lords.
Rumors say that Lord Kieran Fleurnoir was the personification of death. His mere presence was enough to suck the life essence out of those around him. He was also known to be one of the strongest demons of all time, who possesses extremely dangerous and powerful magic.
Taken to Asnar, a place filled with magical beings and monsters, Iris found herself enthralled and captivated not only by the place and its residents, but also by the cold and enigmatic demon lord, Lord Kieran.
Once there, Iris realized that Asnar and Lord Kieran himself were different from what humans thought them to be.
Loosely based on the tales of ‘Hades and Persephone’ and ‘Beauty and the Beast’.

“Sis, I can’t marry him! Please help me convince Mom not to marry me off!” Melody cried helplessly in Penelope’s arms.
Penelope looked at her younger sister in distraught. She knew how much Melody was in love with her current boyfriend, but it would be difficult to disobey their mother, considering the massive debt their father left behind prior to his death.
However, on the day of the wedding day, Melody didn’t show up and ran away with her lover. In order to give her family some face, Penelope Dimitriou had no other choice but to step forward to fill her sister’s role.
“Mr. Hendrix, my sister ran away. Do you mind marrying me instead?”
The man lifted his dark eyes and stared at her for a long moment before his lips curled into a dashing smile.
“Sure,” he said with an amused laugh. “But you better not regret it.”
Penelope stiffened under his gaze but kept her expression neutral. Regret? That was the word she was trying to remove from her vocabulary, but if marrying this stranger could spare her sister from trouble, so be it.

In her previous life, Adrienne Jiang had used all means to save her mother’s life. Her father had neglected her after marrying his mistress, allowing the mother-and-daughter pair to bully her to no end. The older brother whom she thought she could rely on gave her a cold shoulder and chastised her instead for not cutting their mother’s life support.
In her despair, Adrienne almost fell into the trap set by her stepsister. In the end, she entered a contractual marriage with her best friend’s brother, Alistair Han, a man she’d been carrying a torch for from a young age.
Only then did she realize that the man was manipulative and obsessive, not wanting her out of sight. She had been treated like a bird trapped in a golden cage.
In the end, she met her demise at the betrayal of her brother and everything was lost in the fire. After being reborn, she was determined not to continue being a good-for-nothing person.
Lennox Qin, the vicious young master of the Qin family, was set to become the next head of their family. However, because of an incident, he was crippled and deemed unworthy. When he and Adrienne’s paths crossed, they came to an agreement.
“I’ll marry you to remove your bad luck and be your wife for two years. In return, allow me to use you to destroy the Han and Jiang families.”
The man seated in a wheelchair merely raised a brow at her declaration. His lips then curled into a dashing smile and he agreed without batting an eyelid. However, when the time was almost up, he rushed to convince her to stay in their marriage.
“Madam Qin deserves the best. If it’s the world you desire, I’ll bring it to you on a silver platter. You can have the entire world, but darling, do not forget that while everything belongs to you, you belong to me.”
Adrienne furrowed her brows.
“But you don’t even like me...” She reasoned out, thinking that her husband might have lost his mind.
“No, I didn’t, but I do love you now. In fact, you are the only one I think of these days.”
However, it seemed to her that not only her husband was trying to get her attention but her in-laws as well.

“You’re not taking me to bed. Ever.”
“Who said it had to be on the bed?”
“What?! You wouldn’t dare kick me off the bed, and I will not share it with you!”

“Contractor, what is marriage?” Shen Minyao asked innocently, making Zhao Yichen speechless by her sudden question. For someone who had lived for centuries, how can she not know a possible relationship between a man and a woman?
“It’s a life contract between a man and a woman.” He said after a long silence between them.
“So does this mean that I am your wife and you are my husband?” She grinned mischievously before pouncing on him.
“W-what are you doing?” Zhao Yichen was stunned to see her stripping her clothes as she straddled him.
“Performing my duties as your wife, what else?”
When the fourth young master of the Zhao family, Zhao Yichen was assassinated on the remote mountain range of Qingqiu, his blood awakened the nine-tailed fox, the mountain guardian who was sealed for centuries. In return, the newly awakened Su Daji, who possessed the dead body of Shen Minyao, made a life contract with him and saved his life.
Through ancient tales, the nine-tailed fox was an auspicious symbol and symbolizes peace and prosperity in the world. However, it has been gradually demonized. It was turned into a beauty who sought to bewitch humans and their souls.
However, as Zhao Yichen looked at the quintessential fox-like woman next to him, he realized that she was able to not only bewitch him, but also steal his heart. But no matter how close he was to the fox woman, he couldn’t seem to win her trust.
As Zhao Yichen participated in a power struggle against his cousins, he and Shen Minyao uncover the unknown side of the seemingly normal modern world.

“Feng Tianyi! Your brother destroyed my Tang family! Is there anything good about your family?”
“En. Can’t you see how our good looking genes are passed on to our children? As for the Feng family’s debt, I will pay you.” He said nonchalantly.
Tang Moyu scoffed and crossed her arms over her chest.
“How will you pay for it?”
“How about I repay you with my body?”
“...”
So shameless!
The man sitting on his wheelchair burst into a round of laughter seeing her ugly expression.
“Miss Tang, it’s no point pretending you haven’t seen it since you practically climbed on my bed and took advantage of me.”
Five years ago, Tang Moyu was the empress of the business world and was at the peak of her career before she was reduced to nothing when her fiance fell in love with another woman. That was okay since there was no love between her and Feng Tianhua, but who would have thought that this ‘Cinderella’ was a wolf in sheep’s clothing?
Then there’s Feng Tianyi, the infamous successor of the Feng family, a critically acclaimed author who constantly rocked the bestselling list with his books. Rumors say that he was hot-headed and temperamental. He was so ruthless, that neither men nor women wanted his company. The rumors even say that his face was so handsome and out of this world. He was practically a god amongst men. It was a pity that he was crippled.
The two were never meant to meet again, but a pair of sweet little buns intervened.
“Uncle, we don’t have money to pay you for damages.” The elder Little Bun said.
“My manuscripts are invaluable,” This handsome uncle replied with amusement.
“Uncle, if you don’t mind, can we pay with our Mommy? She’s also invaluable.”
And so the pair of sweet little buns and the handsome uncle entered an agreement but who would have thought that the woman in question was an ice-cold queen from hell who had a weird affinity with sweets?
