Fear Loathing

"I want you to get married, Michael. I want you to find a suitable bride and settle down, and I want it done within the next 24 hours.” He is in search of a bride. He wants her in 24 hours. He could lose all he has if he doesn't. “You are crazy, this is just an act for the movie, 'Marry Me, Miss’.” She is a washed up actress. She has too many problems in her life. But she didn't expect to be married again. When Micheal Alista got an ultimatum to get married in 24 hours or lose all he had, he knew the only way to make that happen was to either kidnap a bride or force a bride to marry him. And this didn't sit right well with Alaina Green, especially after she realises she was going to have a baby for a man she totally loathes.

It's funny, isn't it? Nobody asks to be born... None of us choose the life we are forced to live....And yet, we are bound to it, trapped in a world where strength defines everything. People worship when you are strong. They loathe when you are weak. They worship the god. They fear the devil. But why? Was it righteousness that gave the god victory over the devil, or was it simply strength? Why must we fear one and worship the other? Is the god so righteous? Is the devil so weak? Would Wang Xiao still have everything if he were weak? Would they still worship him? Would those women have submitted so easily? No. It's always the strength. Power rules all. A man can own kingdoms, riches, even love—but lose his strength, and the world turns on him. His woman, the one who once looked at him with admiration, will crush him underfoot if she finds him unworthy. His own children, born of his blood, will stare at him with contempt, their eyes filled with disappointment. What is love if not submission to power? What is loyalty but the price of dominance? Wang Xiao has learned this bitter truth. The sacrifices he made, the pain he endured, meant nothing. Without strength, he was nothing. But no longer... He has seen the lie, the illusion of it all... And now, the ancient myths rise once more, the gods claw their way from forgotten graves, and Wang Xiao, mistaken for the 8th Prince, feared by gods and mortals alike, finds himself at the center of it all. Seven goddesses, each more beautiful, more dangerous than the last, now circle him, bound by fate. Their charm is powerful, their desires even more so. The guardian of the Atlantic tears apart nations to possess him. The Desert Princess offers her entire empire as a gift, yearning for his love... Even an ancient being, her power stripped away, bends her knee in submission, once feared, now powerless before him. But would they have bowed if he were weak? Would they have loved him, served him, feared him? No. It's always the strength. "He 'who' covers the sky with his hand," they whisper. "The gods who once played with universes like orbs... he'll make them swallow their own spit in fear." Wang Xiao's gaze hardens as he stares at his reflection. The weak are forgotten... Strength is all that matters. "The world doesn't care for the weak," Wang Xiao whispers to his reflection. "Your woman will turn her back, people will spit on your name... They'll forget you ever existed... everything you did for them would be insignificant and forgetten...Strength is all that truly matters." And so, Wang Xiao will take what's his. The gods, playing with the universe like toys, will fall. The devils, pulling at the strings of fate, will lose their grip. He will strip them of their power, their kingdoms, their very souls, if that's what it takes. He isn't their pawn. Not anymore. Would they have bowed if he were weak? Would they have given themselves so easily? Would they have even cared? No. It's always the strength. Wang Xiao is no longer the man he once was. No longer human. No longer weak. He is the deviant. And the world will soon know what that truly means. --------------- #NoYuri #NoNTR #Threesome #Harem #Strong to Stronger #Elf #Gore #Evil MC #Conquor #Action #Adventure #Imperial Harem #Revenge #Daughters #Fellatio #Supernatural #Urbanfantasy #Superpowers #Cultivation #Goddess #First-time Intercourse #Villain ---------------- Warning: The Novel is based upon a fictional Earth, and any resemblance is mere coincidence!

Agree, each of us is afraid of the darkness, or rather, of what hides there: under-the-bed monsters, ghosts, and forest creatures.

As he weaves his path through various worlds, leaving devastation in his wake, Silas becomes the embodiment of villainy—a being both feared and loathed, whose actions incite hatred from those who seek to stop him.

This secrecy only deepens the intrigue surrounding him, as he manipulates events from the shadows, forging alliances and betraying them at will. Each world he encounters serves as a pawn in his grand scheme, and as he obliterates entire realms, he poses a question that lingers in the minds of his enemies: what does he truly seek?

Driven by ambition and a thirst for power, he remains unforgiving to those who stand in his way, even as he grapples with the whispers of the sealed Void that echo in the recesses of his mind. As he carves a path through chaos, the true nature of his goals becomes a haunting mystery: are they aligned with the Void’s ultimate purpose, or is Silas pursuing a destiny all his own?
