Growing up poor, I had always thought I was unfortunate. My parents eventually died, and I had no choice but to give my dog up to the adoption center. I searched for food for hours, days even, and to no avail. I went to sleep one night and didn't wake up the next- I had died of starvation. Actually, I'm lying, sort of. It's true I didn't wake up, but that was in my old body. After I had died of starvation, it seems I was reincarnated into a cultivation world where power and influence meant everything. I was blessed with insane luck, as I start out right away with being the young master of the Shi family. Then I suddenly had a few high-level manuals, and one thing led to the next. But don't confuse it, even though I had luck, I still had plenty of problems, and I was more interested in becoming the most powerful figure in the world, a seemingly distant yet close dream. Oddly, as I grew older and the more powerful I became, I seemingly became even more lucky. It’s almost as if the universe itself is working overtime to spoil me… a little too much?

MATURE CONTENT WARNING!!: These people be getting freaky in the sheets! "You think I haven’t noticed your eyes on me?" Kai En's voice was dangerously low, his lips curled into a cruel smile. "The way they linger— you can’t decide whether to kill me or kiss me. Am I right, little alpha?" ... For as long as Jun could remember, vengeance had been his only purpose. The last survivor of a disgraced family, he vowed to tear down the empire that destroyed his life, starting with its most prized jewel—Prince Feng Kai En.  Now, under the guise of Xiao Liu, a lowly servant in the prince’s retinue, he plans his revenge. But nothing could have prepared him for what awaited within the palace walls. Neither Xiao Liu’s sharp blades nor detailed plans were good enough to fall the man behind the title. Every failed assassination attempt and heated exchange left him more entangled with the man he was meant to destroy. Kai En—ruthless, untouchable, and powerful. An alpha in the eyes of all. Xiao Liu uncovered the prince’s greatest secret—beneath the façade lay something far more dangerous and vulnerable. Something Xiao Liu intended to exploit. Duty had always been Kai En’s burden. Yet Xiao Liu’s presence stirred emotions long buried—desires with no place in his world. Every attempt on his life only deepened the prince’s fascination, pulling him into the chaos Xiao Liu brought. As war looms and enemies close in, their dangerous dance intensifies. Desire grows where hate once ruled, pulling them into a storm of violence, lust, and something deeper. “You’ll never belong to anyone else,” Xiao Liu snarled, his lips finding Kai En’s neck again, biting down hard. “Not her. Not anyone. You belong to me.” Xiao Liu knows Kai En is the key to his revenge, but the more their lives tangle, the harder it becomes to tell if it’s vengeance he craves… or the prince himself. And Kai En must face the ultimate test that could break his kingdom and heart. Can Xiao Liu destroy the man he’s come to obsess over, or will he fall first?
