A withering flower at devil's mercy

A withering flower at devil's mercy

Akira_Kanesada
“These bedchambers have missed your scent.” His voice, low and rough, made her pulse quicken. Her fear surged, boundless, as he closed the stained glass doors behind him. “Please… let me go,” she pleaded, trembling as he pulled her close, his touch burning against her skin. “You fled this place while carrying my child. Why did you come back?” he murmured, his lips trailing down her neck as they had so many times before. “I… don’t know,” she managed, her voice barely a whisper. Luciana Mircea de Amanécer, princess of the Holy Empire that ruled the skies, had once lived in a world of beauty and privilege—a devoted father, joyful sisters, wealth, and a loving fiancé. Yet that life shattered with a single conversation. One day, her father appeared in her chambers, eyes solemn, bearing news that upended her world. “You will be married,” he said, but the name wasn’t that of the man she cherished. Instead, she was to be wed to the ruthless crown prince of the rival Demon Empire, an alliance forged to quell the simmering tensions between their kingdoms. “Father, please…” she begged. “My child,” he murmured, his voice heavy with regret. “It is your duty as the firstborn princess. This marriage will protect the realm… and your little sisters.” For the first time in her life, Luciana saw him bow to her, his plea wordless but clear. Yielding to her father’s desperate request, she accepted her fate. In a single day, she went from princess to wife, her dreams abandoned and her future reshaped. But the white wedding gown was soon stained crimson, marking her descent into a life she could never have anticipated. Could she learn to accept a man for whom compassion was an unfamiliar luxury, or would the love she had left behind rise to rescue her?

There is no cheat, but fortunately there is a soul beast clone that can help the original body to practice… Becoming a god is not a delusion!

The clone is with the soul beasts, forming gangs and factions, driving the love-brained Silver Dragon King off the throne of the soul beast leader, becoming the boss of the soul beasts, and then leading a group of soul beasts to fight against the God Realm! The original body took advantage of this to make a profit. One person plays two roles, good and evil, working together inside and outside… becoming the final winner.

Raising My Trash Ability into a Broken SSS+ Rank Skill

Every hero starts with power. He started with dust. One moment, the classroom buzzed with teenage chatter. The next, silence fell. Students blinked—and opened their eyes in an ancient hall carved from gold and marble. The air shimmered with divine magic. And at its center stood a goddess—flawless, proud, unbelievably beautiful and wrapped in flowing white. It was a divine summoning performed by a divine goddess. Among them was Vritra… and his stunningly beautiful mother. While others received blessings, powerful physiques and grand titles, Vritra was given a skill so pathetic it made even the goddess wrinkle her nose. An ability—so pitifully weak that it drew laughter, scorn, and even disgust. But that wasn't the worst part. Betrayed and cornered inside the labyrinth, Vritra had two choices: die… or fall into the death trap. A death canopy with no exit and no chance of survival, the only option was to slaughter the demons endlessly for months. Finally!! He forced his dormant skill to awaken, after killing thousands and hundreds of thousands demons and devouring them, becoming a broken ability. ****** White robes. Cold arrogance A sinful revenge. White robes can stain. And in the dark, even divinity can moan. And then there was his mo— guilt in her breath, shame in her eyes, whispering apologies between gasps in her son's ear, doing what had to be done… for both their sakes. ________________ Absolutely no NTR, none at all!!! Extra chapters based on response I receive, that's all for now, peace out!!

Ashes of the Cultivation Era

From the ashes, the cultivators built a brutal order where their bloodlines reign supreme, and the filthy descendants of humans are shackled in chains. But deep within the dirt, something festers. The slaves—vile, bitter, and cunning—have not forgotten their pain. They do not seek justice. They want chaos. And one spark may be all it takes to burn their masters to the ground.

Reincarnated With a SSS-Rank Hypnosis Skill in Another World

Jake had spent his entire life buried in textbooks, chasing one exam after another — until he finally graduated from one of the world's top universities as a nuclear engineer. He thought the hard part was over. It wasn't. On the very first day of his new job, a speeding truck ended it all. But fate had other plans. Jake woke up in the arms of a stunning goddess who offered him a second chance — along with one extraordinary skill of his choosing. [Hypnosis (SSS-Rank): The power to control minds and issue irresistible commands.] Reborn as the bastard son of a noble house in a fantasy world, Jake quickly realized he held a power that could change everything. "Lady Aria," Jake said, his voice low and calm, "you'll find yourself wanting to obey me more than anything else." The cold, dignified head maid stiffened, her eyes clouding with confusion — then softening into eager submission. "Stepmother," Jake smiled lazily, "you've been working too hard. You need to let me take care of you... personally." The once-proud woman faltered, her cheeks flushing as she nodded without hesitation. "Miss Evelynn, heir of House Marlow," Jake said casually to the visiting noble, "you'll trust me more than anyone else in the world." With every whispered command, Jake planted a seed deep inside their minds — seeds that would soon blossom into absolute devotion. *** Check out my discord for character illustrations: https://discord.gg/Z9pY9tE9e8 (No Yuri/No NTR)

Afterlife wasn't something that he had thought about, or maybe he had, the downside of being thrust into a new world with your memories wiped and having no recollections of any dreams was disorienting. ...but then again he chose this path, now in a sexualized version of the original novel. How much can magic, which depends on strong emotions could be driven by Lust and Desire? Warning! The story contains and centers around Smut, there is plenty of plot to go around, but if you want to avoid the smut entirely, it might be a little difficult!! ---------------------------- Extra chapters and character photos on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/Light_novel_addict

Magic Overlord: The Last Arcane Sorcerer

Born with a rare albinism and cursed with crippling paralysis, Aethan Narok was destined to be nothing more than an extra in the grand household of the Narok family. While his elder siblings forged legacies as valiant Knights and esteemed scholars—serving the Kingdom and marrying into nobility—Aethan’s days passed in a constant repetition of feeding, cleaning, and silent resting. Yet fate has a strange way of revealing hidden power... Something long dormant was waiting to be awoken. On a particularly dark night, with the Blood Moon casting its crimson glow upon the world, a maid lunged at Aethan, her hands coiling around his neck with murderous intent.

Eternal Reverence -

Death is inevitable—unless you seize control of fate itself. Erasmus has never believed in gods. Faith is a tool, a system to manipulate, a currency to be spent.

But when the sky fractures and the world collapses into something unrecognizable, Erasmus finds himself trapped in a realm where logic is an illusion and the unknown is alive. Here, the ground murmurs secrets. The air devours memories. The trees do not sway—but they watch. Stranded in a land where identity itself is prey, Erasmus does what he has always done: observe, adapt, and take control. But in a world that feeds on the mind before the body, ambition alone may not be enough. Something in the dark is listening. And it does not forget.
