Bride To His Darkness - Chapter 1: Excerpt

In humanity’s final war against the Demon Lord, the strongest heroes fell—not by the enemy’s hand, but by their own, twisted into madness by a cruel illusion. Betrayal. Bloodshed. Despair… and then, silence.Only one person remained: Riley—the weakest warrior of them all. Powerless. Ignored. Forgotten.But he saw through the Demon Lord’s deception. The tyrant was on the brink of death—so weak even a fly could’ve finished him off.And Riley did just that, drawing every last ounce of strength to bite off the demon’s head.Victory? Not quite. A final, desperate strike from the Demon Lord pierced him from behind, killing him instantly.But fate wasn’t done with him yet.Riley awoke ten years in the past—when the online game [Apocalypse] was launched. Before demons descended. Before monsters overran the world.And this time, he wasn’t starting from nothing. He had a decade of experience—and a second chance.Even more shocking, he didn’t awaken his old D-rank Strength Boost talent. This time, he received something far more terrifying: an SSS-Rank Gluttony talent!He could now devour anything—monsters, items, talents, even traits—and gain their power.Ding![You have devoured: Iron Fang Wolf][Acquired: +4 Strength, +2 Agility, Skill: Bite (F-rank)][You have devoured: Goblin ShamanAcquired: +8 Intelligence, Skill: Mana Bolt (E-rank), Talent: Minor Spellcasting Efficiency][You have devoured: Flaming Salamander Drake][Acquired: +22 Endurance, Trait: Dragon’s Resilience, Skill: Flame Breath (C-rank)]Now, there is no demon, no god, no monster who will stand in his way. He will devour everything—and save the world.But the power of Gluttony was a double edged sword. If he wasn’t careful… he could be the one getting consumed.

In her previous life, she had given everything for him and helped him step by step to become a great minister, but she was not as good as her good sister who slept with him.

When the gentle and loving husband took her life, she realized that the love she thought was as deep as the sea was a joke.

To the end with hatred, Lu Xiang cursed angrily, wanting to let the person who wronged her and harmed her have a terrible death…

Opening her eyes again, she returned to the year she was fourteen years old. She had the same life, but she returned with hatred in her heart.

…

The night was dark and the wind was high, Lu Xiang picked up Chu Jinyan who was hunted down and seriously injured, his eyes sparkled.

“Hey, golden thighs!”

So without further ado, he dragged the person into his room to hide.

“As the saying goes, life-saving grace should be promised with your body… Ah, no, I will repay you with the spring, I saved your life today, and you have to promise me three requests in the future.”

Chu Jinyan: “???”

He doesn’t really want to be rescued…

Later, Chu Jinyan patted his thigh and hooked his fingers: “My concubine, come, I’ll give you my lonely thigh.”

She: insidious, deceitful!

Him: despicable, shameless!

Passerby A: So they are a match made in heaven?

Passer-by: Bah, that’s called working in collusion!

Shen Anan is wearing a book.
When someone else wears a book, they are either dressed as a domineering president, or they are the mother or daughter of a domineering president, and no matter how bad they are, they are the petite wife of a domineering president…
She is the only one who, in a false fairy tale, became the last mermaid on the verge of extinction.
In order to change the fate of the Little Mermaid’s complete extinction, the state encircled a small sea area for her and assigned her a national treasure-level scientist.
Ming is here to take care of her diet, but in fact, she is here to study how to breed her successfully.
Before the scientist came, Shen Anan swung the fish’s tail and vowed: “Mating? It doesn’t exist, I am a dignified human being. Even if I die, I can’t accept this kind of emotionless reproductive behavior.”
After the scientist came, Shen Anan: “I! Yes! Yes!”

Later, a group of photos was exposed on Weibo of the national treasure scientist Zhou Suiyu Wannian Changcao.
In the photo, Shen An’an swings a silver fish tail and frolics in the sunshine and blue waves. While licking the screen of Shen An’an’s prosperous beauty, netizens suddenly found that Shen An’an’s belly… It seems to be a drum?
For a while, the news of the successful breeding of the Little Mermaid quickly reached the top of the hot search.
Zhou Suiyu, the father of the child, posted a photo of the two and said, “What breeding? That is the crystallization of our love.”
Everyone: “…Excuse me, are such handsome scientists all assigned by the state? Where can I get them?”
