Be Quiet Dont Cry

The chemistry between them is instantaneous. And not the slow-burn kind—no, it’s the crackling, high-voltage kind that leaves Zane more than a little… intrigued. Nyx, despite her best attempts to maintain her distance, is definitely intrigued by the brooding vampire bartender with the entirely too smooth charm and disarming sense of humor. The only problem? Nyx doesn’t believe in love (been there, done that, got the emotional scars), and Zane? He had loved her once—centuries ago, when he was still mortal. She had been his anchor, his heart, his reason for resisting the darkness that had already begun to consume him. But she had died, tragically, ripped away from him by time and fate. And now, she was back.

[THE COVER OF THE NOVEL ISN'T MINE IT IS CREATED AREKUSHISU_1 ] Adrian Cross never believed in justice—only in settling scores. When he returned home from years in the special forces, he found his adoptive father, John Rico, and his two younger brothers slaughtered in betrayal. Their killers walked free, shielded by power and corruption. Adrian didn’t mourn. He didn’t hesitate. He hunted them down, one by one, until there was no one left to kill. And when his revenge was complete, so was his purpose. He died that night, bleeding out with no regrets. But death wasn’t the end. He woke up in the body of Franz Kafka—a college student in a world he recognized. It was the setting of Requiem of Two Worlds, a novel he had read back in high school. A cliché power-fantasy story where the protagonist built a harem while rising to the top. But Franz Kafka wasn’t in the original story. He wasn’t a villain, a side character, or even a name mentioned in passing. He simply didn’t exist. None of it mattered. Nothing ever did. His past life was over, his revenge fulfilled. Now, he was just a man with no purpose, drifting in a world that wasn’t his own.

In the opulent confines of the Yin dynasty's Imperial court, a mysterious and cunning foreign assassin, Veda (Meixi), is secretly commissioned to eliminate Emperor Kang Xi. However, Meixi's plans are unexpectedly derailed when she is captured and forced to assume the role of a maid under the watchful eye of the Empress Dowager. Determined to fulfill her original mission, Meixi must carefully navigate the intricate web of palace politics to gain the Emperor's trust. Yet, as she expertly manipulates those around her, she finds herself entangled in a complicated dance of loyalty, deception, and forbidden emotions. When Emperor Kang Xi unexpectedly confesses his ardor for Meixi and declares his intention to elevate her to the position of Empress, should she bear him a son, Meixi's carefully constructed facade begins to crumble. As tensions escalate, Meixi becomes the target of Imperial Concubine Yuhua's ruthless machinations. Yuhua, fueled by her own ambition to claim the Empress title, forms a perilous alliance with Jian Wei, the Emperor's banished and malevolent uncle. Jian Wei, driven by a lust for power and a desire for vengeance, secretly manipulates Yuhua to further his own sinister agenda: to assassinate Emperor Kang Xi and install his own son as the rightful ruler. Torn between her loyalty to her original mission and her growing sense of duty to protect the Emperor, Meixi must now confront the treacherous undercurrents of the palace and confront the darkness within herself. Will Meixi find a way to reconcile her conflicting allegiances, or will the intricate web of palace intrigue ultimately prove to be her undoing? And now a shocking truth lurks in the shadows. The Emperor, who has publicly denounced and forbidden the practice of magic, harbors a secret: he possesses the ability to wield dark magic. But this newfound power comes with a shroud of mystery. How did the Emperor, a stalwart opponent of magic, come to possess this forbidden art? Is he the victim of a malevolent curse, or has he succumbed to the very darkness he once sought to eradicate?.

But for a heavy price, they did. God of Wonder, God of Light. Who is holier? Who is right? God of Darkness, God of Night. Too afraid to rebel... though he might.
