Sold To The Beast

Darby_Cress
My family sold me to a monster to settle their debts. The whole country knows the rumors. Nicholas Sterling is a hideous, reclusive beast who shuns the light, a man whose face was ruined in a fire and whose heart was twisted by cruelty. They say he buys beautiful things—especially women—just to break them. I was delivered to his cliffside manor with nothing but the clothes on my back and a heart full of dread, a sacrificial lamb to keep my sister alive. I expected a grotesque tyrant. I was not prepared for him. A man with the face of a fallen angel and the presence of a king. His eyes aren't cruel; they're haunted by a grief so deep it steals my breath. His touch isn't violent; it’s a question that terrifies me even more. He calls me his wife. He gives me the run of his castle. But he also watches me with an intensity that feels like possession. And the one rule he gives me is the most chilling of all: Never go into the west wing. But in a house built on lies, how can I resist? The truth is waiting behind that door. And it’s more beautiful, and more terrible, than any beast.

The Dao of Thread and Root

###This is a slow pacing novel! [CONTENT WARNING: This work is intended for an adult audience (18+). Contains explicit sexual content, visceral violence and dark psychological dynamics.] MAIN TAGS: #DualCultivation #Smut #Yandere #Harem #OverpoweredProtagonist #Violence #ObsessiveRomance #WorldBuilding SYNOPSIS: The universe is not a cradle for enlightenment; it is a cosmic slaughterhouse. Immortality is no divine gift, but a ruthless theft against the laws of entropy. In an ecosystem where ancient sects operate as meat grinders and hypocritical heroes rule atop mountains of bones, Zhì Yuǎn is an anomaly. He does not cultivate the Dao to harmonize with the world—he cultivates to devour it. Carrying an insatiable Singularity within his chest, his mere existence warps the natural balance, drawing the scrutiny and fury of the heavens. To feed this inner abyss and force his ascension through the Three Thousand Worlds, he does not walk alone. By his side are his wives—cultivation partners and accomplices in his boundless ambition. They are not the fragile trophies so typical of this world, but the very foundation of his power, as pragmatic and dangerous as the man they follow. Together, they are not heroes seeking justice. There is no room for false morals, mercy toward enemies, or wasting time on the vanity of arrogant young masters. Transcendence demands resources, and they will take them all. The heavens may try to crush the anomaly, but Zhì Yuǎn sees only one thing in the Tribulations: more fuel for his ascension.
