°MATURE AUDIENCES•

He carried me, my legs wrapped around his waist, while my back rested against the wall. I loved this position when he gave it to me.

I thought he was an ordinary man. I thought that since I had already tasted his touch, the dreams of our intimacy always haunting me, I could own him.

Finally, as a goddess, I believed I could enjoy myself freely this time, get lost in pleasure, which I could finally savor.

I wanted him for myself alone, my personal treasure. But then I began to fall for him. A treasure I thought I could use and discard at will became something I couldn't go a day without. His presence became my weak point, my doom and yet, I couldn't help but embrace him.

"They all deserve to die a terrible death."

These were the words of the goddess of revenge when the anguished cries of a woman, a victim of relentless domestic violence reached her divine ears.

Bound by her sacred duties and forced to wait for the souls of the guilty men to return for judgment, the goddess was patient. For thousands of years, she waited. And when the time came, she descended into the mortal world, inhabiting the body of a young billionaire to exact her divine punishment.

Victory was a certainty for her. She had always prevailed, delivering justice to those who deserved it. But this time, her task proved unexpectedly complex.

Living under the same roof with her husbands after signing a marriage deal, one of them proved to be no ordinary man.

Tristan D'Leon, a vampire, a creature born from the depths of hell, carrying his own mysterious burdens and duties.

Their fates intertwined, both driven by obligations they could not ignore.

Yet, as time passed, something unthinkable began to take root: love.

For Jade, whose purpose was to mete out divine punishment, falling for a millennia-old vampire was unthinkable. Why him? Why now? This was not her first time walking the earth, so why had the will of heaven suddenly shifted?

As Jade navigated the complexities of her mission and her growing feelings for Tristan, she couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss. The goddess of revenge, known for her unwavering dedication to justice, was now faced with a daunting question: could she truly fulfill her duty when her heart was no longer aligned with her purpose?

This novel is a dark romance and the more you read, the more darker it gets. Don't say I didn't warn ya. Hehehe

Despite having Jade beneath me last night, despite taking her in every way possible, my jade pendant still hadn't returned to me.


I should have felt it, should have sensed its energy returning the moment our bodies intertwined. Yet, even after leaving the hotel room this morning, giving it time while I had breakfast prepared, nothing changed.


The thought alone made my blood simmer, frustration creeping into my veins like wildfire. But I forced myself to remain calm. Perhaps it would take time perhaps I had to earn it back, reclaim it through sheer persistence.


And so here I was, once again buried deep inside her, her body writhing beneath me, her moans sending jolts of raw need through me.


Maybe once wasn't enough. Maybe I needed to take her two, three, four times matching the number of days the pendant had been inside her. Maybe only then would it return to me.
