Rated 18 | Dark Romance | Mafia | Stalker Ariana Park's life shattered the night she caught her ex with her best friend. Since then, she’s rebuilt her world piece by piece—alone, guarded, and determined to never be vulnerable again. But someone’s been watching her. Studying her. Waiting. Brandon Marshall is ruthless, calculated, and feared by everyone in the criminal underworld. But nothing has ever consumed him like Ariana. From the shadows, he’s watched her every move, craving her like a man starved. And now, he’s done waiting. When their paths finally collide, Ariana is pulled into a world of danger, obsession, and forbidden passion. Brandon is possessive, relentless, and completely unhinged—but he swears he’d burn the world to protect her. Even from herself. Just as she begins to question everything she thought she knew about love and desire, the past comes knocking. Her ex, James, returns—remorseful, desperate, and ready to fight for her heart. But in a game where obsession cuts deeper than love, and secrets are more dangerous than lies… Who will Ariana choose? The man who broke her? Or the monster who never let her go?

Dual Cultivation God Returns

"Wu Long, the God of Pleasure, has fallen as he failed to breakthrough." This news have shocked all of the Seven Boundless Worlds. Meanwhile, a sixteen-year-old disciple of a dual cultivation sect was startled awake from a coma, and after some moments of calming down and gathering his thoughts, a dangerous light flickered deep in his eyes: "Jun Shaoshan, I will climb back to the top and make you pay for everything, no one has ever been safe after offending me, Wu Long!" -------------- Dual cultivation is a method of cultivation that can be seen described in a lot of cultivation novels where a man and a woman cultivates together by having sex. -------------- ***DIscord Link: https://discord.gg/JfSRtJVXTd The Image on the cover is AI-generated with some minor adjustments and text editing done over it. Please check the auxiliary chapter with Frequently Asked Questions since there may be some answers to the questions you might want to ask. If you want to ask questions regarding the novel before reading you can do so in the comment section of the said auxiliary chapter. If you have posted a review and it is not appearing on the novel page and not changing the novel score, it may have stuck in the system (happened in the past and occasionally happening now). Please comment under the FAQ auxiliary chapter mentioned above if you notice this happen. I can usually contact support in daytime on weekdays and the problem is fixed within days and the 'stuck' reviews appear on the page. Thank you XD -------------- ***The explicit chapters will be marked in the chapter name after the chapter number as (R18) and will contain no crucial plot, only explicit scene, so if you want to read it as a novel without explicit scenes you absolutely can by just skipping the explicit chapters. Though as a disclaimer: dual cultivation IS the theme of the novel so there will still be some provocative or slightly explicit content in the normal chapters, but not full-on long explicit scenes. ***Since it seems that there are a lot of people that are very particular about what they want I will put here some of the things to expect so that it is easier for people to decide if they want to read this or not: - NO yaoi, NO yuri, NO incest ; - NO rape ( it may be mentioned, but only as a thing that exists, not in relation to any particular character ); - MC's heroines will NEVER cheat on him; - MC's heroines will NOT ALWAYS have V cards (but there will be a lot of them who do); These are all non-negotiable so if you cannot tolerate a novel that adheres to any of the above sentences you should probably skip this one. !!! WARNING (ADVERTISEMENT) there will be MILFs. XD
