Mercy Mastery

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… 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?

The Twelve Shadows

In the bustling, drama-filled hallways of Rosewood High, 16-year-old Ethan Park is the textbook definition of an underdog. Bullied, ignored, and struggling to find his place, Ethan's days are marked by humiliation and his nights filled with lonely dreams of becoming someone stronger. But life takes an unexpected turn when a mysterious jade pendant, inherited from his late grandfather, unlocks the spirits of 12 ancient kung fu masters from a forgotten era. The masters, each a legend in their own right, inhabit Ethan's body, granting him the knowledge, reflexes, and mastery of martial arts they spent lifetimes perfecting. With their guidance, Ethan transforms from a clumsy, timid teen into a skilled martial artist capable of astonishing feats. But this gift comes with a price. The masters warn Ethan that their spirits have been awakened for a reason: a shadowy organization known as the Black Lotus, intent on reviving ancient, forbidden martial techniques to take control of the modern world. Ethan must rise to become the new guardian of the martial arts legacy, a role his grandfather once held. As Ethan battles not only the Black Lotus but also his own insecurities, he learns to embrace the power within and the wisdom of his spectral mentors. Along the way, he forms bonds with unlikely allies, confronts his bullies with newfound confidence, and even discovers the beginnings of young love. But can a once-bullied boy truly live up to the expectations of 12 legendary warriors? The journey to mastery isn't just about technique; it's about courage, heart, and finding one’s true strength.
