Nightfall: The Devil'S Duality

The Devil's Thread

A smile that bled through kingdoms. A dot that hides a fate unknown. --- Some call him a devil. Others remember only the smile—calm, beautiful, and soaked in blood. Lucifer awakens in a quiet border village with fragments of a forgotten past, a bleeding dream, and powers he never asked for. On one arm, a mysterious glowing dot. On the other, a progress bar tied to a name in a language long lost. He doesn’t know what he is. But he knows one thing—he’s not normal. In a world divided by power and ranks, where kings wields power and gods are only myths, Lucifer is drawn to the Academy: the center of civilization, where monsters are raised as champions. His quest is simple: “Academy.” But fate is not. He isn’t here to survive. He’s here to unravel a thread that could tear reality apart. --- Author Notes: Hey everyone, I’m Author Zero. This story isn't just about power levels and flashy academies—though you’ll find plenty of that too. The Devil’s Thread dives deeper into themes of identity, buried memories, dark choices, and the lies we accept to survive. There will be thrill, suspense, subtle worldbuilding, and philosophical layers buried beneath action and charm. Romance might arrive, but it won’t define the story. Think of it like peeling an onion. Except every layer bleeds. This is my first time crafting something like this. If you enjoy dark protagonists, beautiful lies, academy arcs, and the unraveling of something ancient and forbidden—this is for you. Support, votes, and comments fuel the story (and the Devil’s Smile). Thanks for reading.

The Devil's Son and His Fated Bride

[Completed story] *Who would have thought a precious, legitimate princess was forced to secretly marry a predator in the middle of the night when the silver moon shone brightly in the middle of the starry sky? Warning: Epic fantasy ROMANCE+++ If you want to know how the animosity between vampires and werewolves had truly started, this is mandatory to read this story. The FMC is a beast tamer. The MMC is the Lord of Shadow. __ The night the prince arrived to claim her, Reneira braced herself for the inevitable circumstances. However, nothing could have prepared her for the truth that this wasn’t just a marriage. She was just a pawn to win yet another war, a cord to fasten an alliance. Her new husband was a sweet torment, an immortal, god-like bully disguised in an impossibly beautiful human form with no rival. His every gaze felt like a punishment, and his sinful aura tempted her in ways she never expected. This god of lust refused to touch her or accept her as his true wife. Believing that her dignity was lost forever, she resigned herself to her fate, hoping to make a home in the hell she’d been thrown into. But fate, as it often did play, had other plans. ~*~ “Don’t even think about seducing me by licking your lips like that, doe-eye!” He breathed in her ear as he joined her in bed, shirtless, his muscular abdomen rippling with each movement. “I… I’m not doing it on purpose!” she stammered, her breath catching in her chest when he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her body against him. His mouth hovered near her temple, his lips grazing her ear shell. “I’m going to make you forget what happened today. My body is yours as compensation, wife.” ~*~ Volume one: House of Poison and Bone. Completed. Volume Two: House of Fire and Wings. Completed.

A withering flower at devil's mercy

“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…don't do this,” 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. "But you chased me all the way back!" her lips met his crushing her mouth with a forceful kiss burning her up. She groaned trying to free herself but it was a futile attempt. Dragging her to bed as she tried another futile attempt to escape he stripped her with rough yet controlled hands. "You could've casted me out of there. Gotten married to your ex. You had a better choice given," he kissed her collarbone. " But here you are laying beneath me as it was that night. When you were just a clueless innocent virgin." he grinned sarcastically. “I… don’t know,” she managed, her voice barely a whisper still trying to move away from his touch. "It useless to defy me. Now this is the only place left for you." And he reclaimed her with burning passion rendering her attempts to refuse him and escape him futile. ----->>>>> 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 worse yet the man who she was supposed to be wedded was replaced by a more ruthless hound. A more agonizing revelation that he was a slave with empty title in name. 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?

Devil's Advocate: Angel on Trial

In the boundless realm of Heaven, where celestial order reigns supreme, one trial has the power to change everything. Devil’s Advocate: Angel on Trial is a sprawling epic that challenges the very foundations of divine law, plunging its readers into a courtroom saga that spans over a thousand chapters, filled with twists, revelations, and moral conflicts that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Seraphiel, once a shining beacon of Heaven’s grace, now stands accused of the greatest sin in the eyes of the divine: heresy. Her crime? Defying the doctrine that has governed the heavens since the dawn of time. Yet, the truth of her actions remains shrouded in mystery. Was she truly guilty, or is there a darker force at work one that will threaten not just her soul, but the very fabric of celestial law? At the heart of this monumental trial stands Lucien, a fallen angel who has spent centuries in the shadows, exiled for his own transgressions. Now, summoned from obscurity to serve as Seraphiel's defense, he must navigate a court where nothing is as it seems. The Court of Eternal Judgment, the highest authority in Heaven, has always been revered as infallible but Lucien’s return signals the beginning of a reckoning. As he delves deeper into the trial, he uncovers hidden truths and forbidden secrets, suggesting that Heaven’s unblemished image is a carefully crafted lie. Lucien’s journey is no longer just about defending Seraphiel it becomes a battle for the very soul of Heaven itself. For every piece of evidence uncovered, every forbidden truth revealed, more questions arise. Why have angels been silenced for centuries? What is the true cost of unquestioning obedience? And how far will the celestial beings go to protect their own corrupt order? As the trial unfolds, Lucien faces not only the wrath of the Celestial Judges—Metatron, Uriel, Raphael, and others but the unsettling revelations that challenge everything he once knew about Heaven, the angels, and himself. The law that once bound Heaven in harmony now feels like a cage, one that keeps its denizens imprisoned in a system of fear, manipulation, and conformity. But Lucien is no longer the obedient angel he once was. With each new discovery, his resolve hardens. He will not stand by while Heaven’s corruption is swept under the rug. But the battle grows more complex as the celestial realms themselves begin to fracture. Other factions, long hidden from mortal and divine eyes, start to make their presence known. Some seek to uphold the old laws, while others like the rebellious faction led by Aethon, the First Prosecutor hope to tear the system apart from within. As the trial enters its most dangerous phase, Lucien must confront the heart of the celestial order itself. The lines between right and wrong, angel and demon, justice and tyranny, blur beyond recognition. The stakes have never been higher. Heaven’s very foundation hangs in the balance. And Lucien’s role as both advocate and challenger forces him to grapple with his own place in this world and whether he’s ready to expose the truth, no matter the cost. Will Lucien succeed in his mission to expose Heaven’s corruption, or will the ancient forces of divine law crush him under their weight? Can he save Seraphiel from an unjust fate, or will he become a martyr to a system that no longer believes in mercy? This is no ordinary courtroom drama. This is a war for the heart of Heaven. Devil’s Advocate: Angel on Trial is a thousand-chapter epic that weaves together courtroom strategy, divine intrigue, philosophical dilemmas, and action-packed sequences in a tale of redemption, betrayal, and the quest for justice. With each chapter, the web of lies unravels, exposing dark secrets and moral ambiguities that challenge the very nature of good and evil. Will Lucien—and by extension, Heaven survive the trial, or will it collapse under the weight of its own corruption?

[Main Plot Completed] A love doomed from the start, a lost cause, a losing battle—and yet, neither hearts are willing to let go until the very end. ----- Arlan Cromwell, the epitome of the perfect Crown Prince. All he wants is to live a normal life of a human but the life of a dragon is anything but normal. He has but one goal—to find his runaway betrothed and behead her. What happens when he discovers that the woman who has snagged his heart is the one he vowed to kill? Oriana, a Black Witch, disguising herself as a man, has spent her entire life on the run without knowing what she is running away from. When the mysteries of her past slowly catch up to her, she has no one to turn to…except Arlan. But when she learns that the man she has given her heart to is the same man who wants to kill her, how can she accept the cruel card life dealt her? Two people with secrets to keep, identities to hide, and answers to find. When the certain darkness threatens to take Oriana away, will the Dragon be able to protect his mate? ----- Excerpt- “If I knew you were my betrothed, I would have killed you the very first moment we met." Arlan's gaze darkened with hatred. “If I knew I was betrothed to you, I would have killed myself before you even killed me!” Oriana mirrored the same emotions as him. He pulled out a dagger and offered it to her. “It’s not too late. Just slit your throat with this and you'll bleed out painlessly.” She accepted the knife, her fingers clutching its handle tightly. The next moment, he was pressed against the wall and the knife was on the right side of his neck. “How about I try it on you first, my betrothed?” “Feel free to try. But when you fail, this knife will first taste your grandpa's blood, then yours.” Anger rose in her eyes, and the next moment, blood was flowing through the right side of his neck. She cut deep enough to severe an important blood vessel. “You should not have challenged me,” she sneered and stepped back, waiting for him to collapse. He simply smirked and brushed his finger along the deep wound on his neck. “Seems like you failed.” She watched the wound on his neck heal on its own and felt shocked to her bones. “You.. what are you?” “Guess?” ----- Instagram- mynovel.20 Facebook- Author mynoveltwenty
