asia chinesehistory death destiny dynasty emperor empire empress fate hate historical love palace revenge sui throne tragedy tyrant war

"Let us meet again in hell." Before she became the infamous seductress. Before he was the most hated tyrant. Before it all fell apart...

Born a curse, she was cast away from the royal family. But when the kingdom needed an alliance, she was the one called upon to marry.

As the second son, he had no right to become heir. Yet in the face of war and politics, he was always the first commanded to fight for the country.

"Whoever is wedded to the princess is destined to become emperor." Somehow, fate brought them together, and the course of the empire thus changed forever.

She became known as the most shameful seductress, purposefully tempting six emperors in a wild bid to maintain her lavish lifestyle. She once dreamt of becoming the century's best medic; yet after a lifetime in the palace, she couldn't save her own children from slaughter.

He turned into the worst tyrant in Chinese history, knowingly sending millions to their graves in a blind attempt to pursue his frivolous dreams. He initially wanted to live a simple life; but under the pressure of power, he instead found himself using all those he loved as mere pawns.

She thought she was fighting against destiny, but it turned out to be the ones she most trusted. 

He believed he was the one pulling on the strings, but in reality, he was unknowingly playing his own part in the script. 

They were unwilling puppets, each trying to break free from the invisible strings of fate. Only when the stage finally fell, it was to chaos. At the end of it all, she no longer knew if her tears were for him or the irony of it all.

(Not) written in the stars! by GhostQueenTW

Find out what happens when fate makes the path of a warrior and the president of a famous MC collide. Alexia Wyatt My life hadn't been easy; in fact, I have secrets that I have hidden for years. People take my attitude as shy or stuck up, but they don't know what is under the surface. I honestly don't care what people think of me. I am content with my solitary life, helping those who need it. I never planned to meet a man who could awaken the woman in me, and for sure never expected that man to be as cruel as the man I escaped from so many years ago. If this is what fate wants for me, I am not OK with it. Ty Lombardi Some people believe in fate. They claim our paths are pre-written and that somehow, we eventually will bump into the love of our lives. I don't believe in any of that crap. I can't accept that some powerful being wrote that I would fall in love with the perfect woman to lose her only two years later during a stupid accident. And I am even more against the idea that suddenly fate decided to give me a second chance with an instant family that I wasn't expecting. I refuse to accept my future is written in the stars, and I won't welcome this new opportunity for love.

A Thousand Life Times by aerusaerus

She's lived as an Empress, Doctor, Noble lady, Assassin, Slave and even a Dancer. She had so many identities, so many faces and life times that she didn't even remember what her first life was about, nor could she remember her name. Yet now, having given all that she could, fighting through the night until her last breath surrounded by enemies on all sides. Even with her vision starting to blur, there was no hints of fear in her eyes. 'Please just let me die.' Praying to the Gods above, she only hoped that when she closed her eyes, this time, they would never open again. But it did. "FUCK!" She cursed at the Gods above! Reborn into the body of an orphaned daughter? No problem, what she had was wealth and honorary title that her father had left behind! Married into an infamous Generals' manor? Fine! As long as he doesn't disturb her, he is just another big money tree for her to take shelter under! This time she was determined to lead a lazy and peaceful life, taking a break from "living". But why does it seems that God had other plans for her. Things weren't as simple as they turned out to be.

Gladiator✔️ by EraRexon

His chest glistened with water droplets dribbling down the glowing bronze skin. Resting, his strong muscular back against the rocks on the lake side, head lulled backwards, onyx eyes closed in utter salvation. "Your spying on me is utterly useless young tulip." Ink eyes opened, resting upon my little frame making me freeze. "What are you thinking? You have got this one chance....run away." He offered his eyes watching my each and every movement like a hawk. "I am a prisoner sire, I have heard stories....tales of how war prisoners are mercilessly butchered if they are caught and I can't afford to die....not yet...I have someone to feed and I will do anything for them." "Anything?" He asked in eerily calm voice. I nodded slowly a lump forming in my throat as my eyes glistened with tears with the scenes of men using my eighteen year body flashed infront of me making me tremble. Water splashed around as he rose to his full height inside the lagoon, his eyes solely focused on me, his feet moving forward, closing our distance altogether. "Azarios" I stiffened, my eyes snapping to his in utter surprise as I heard the name leaving his plump lips. His identity, the name which echoed throughout the dynasty making every living soul shudder. Killer Commander Beast He was the commander of Gladiators. Azarios, the Gladiator of Ambrose. "You will be the bride of mine." "You are my enemy, my contender, the person I hate with everything....every fibre in my soul." she fumed. "Too bad then... you are the person I love with every cell in my body." *No toxic relationship*

A Dance in the Dark (Book 1) by JhulyxOliveira

[ magic, romance and madness. ] Everyone knew that a romance between a guardian and their protégé always ended in tragedy - yet they risked it. One day, I read that in real-life fairy tales, the princess sometimes needs to befriend the dragon and kill the prince, perhaps not to the most extreme extent, considering the prince's utility. (*Wink*). Twenty years had passed since the demise of the last living descendant bearing the bloodline of a potent family within the mystical realm. Individuals who possessed magic more formidable than anyone could have fathomed and that very magic could be pilfered if they were to meet an untimely end-a rumour ignited like wildfire. Word began to spread about the sole surviving member of the Lysion family, the last vestige of a lineage renowned for their blessings from the gods (or, as some argue, their curses), once no more than bedtime tales for children. Two decades earlier, a game of hide and seek unfolded that culminated in the death of the final Lysion at the hands of Oldo Blake, a formidable figure in the annals of history. Or so the story goes. An obscure girl. A concealed secret. A relentless pursuit. With a motley crew of bewildering Other Siders on her trail and an absolute dearth of knowledge on how to harness her precious magic, Rosélina Johnson's life transformed from that of an inconspicuous university student to that of a fugitive in the mystic realm, utterly unprepared for what lay ahead.

Mr. Tycoon's Daring Wife by xincerely_

In every love story, there's always a vengeful and venomous fiancée who was engaged to the rich and handsome CEO that fell for the poor, but gentle and innocent female lead. In his greed for her love, he broke his poor fiancée whose love drove her to the brink of insanity. No one ever cared about how the fiancée felt. Zhao Lifei was prepped her entire life to marry one man, but suddenly, his heart was captured by another. She was face-slapped, destroyed, and disowned for loving Zheng Tianyi. She was willing to sacrifice her youth, time, and heart for the man, but all she got was pain and despair. It took two harsh, but awakening years for Zhao Lifei to finally understand the mistakes she has made in the past. After her redemption, it was now Zhao Lifei's turn to experience a love grander than the female lead. Smarter, feistier, and wittier, Zhao Lifei knew how to survive the cruel, backstabbing, and harsh upper-class society was. "A cheating fiancé that broke my heart? Screw him, I'll find someone richer!" "All of my friends have abandoned me? Whatever, I'll find better ones!" "My parents disowned me? That's fine, my grandfather is wealthier and more powerful than both of them combined!" To the opposite of Zhao Lifei, was the incredibly wealthy and powerful, yet ruthlessly cold Yang Feng. Yang Feng, the King of the Business Empire, was a man to be feared. Heart of ice, eyes of stone, merciless but enticingly handsome, there was not a single person in this world that dared to offend him. Many have tried, but none had succeeded in garnering his attention. That is, until his path unexpectedly collides with Zhao Lifei. Challenges will arise, chaos will commence, and drama will ensue. But then again, what is a love story without disturbance? They say love without conflict is just a simple crush and the story of Zhao Lifei and Yang Feng was anything but that.
