Chapter 1
To see Phil one last time, I gave up my Demon Spirit.
After enduring countless hardships, I finally met him.
The first thing he said to me was, "Get out!"
Not long after, I transcended the mortal world and became an immortal.
But he, unable to love me, was trapped in place.
I advised him to let go of his obsession.
[1]
I am a fox demoness who has undergone a thousand years of spiritual training.
I searched for Phil for five hundred years, but he avoided me.
However, my days are numbered. To see Phil one last time, I crossed Flame Mountain and Ice Blade, and finally found the god who roamed outside the Three Realms: Nolan!
"Why can't I find Phil?" Nolan, dressed in a long purple robe, stood atop the icy peak, smiling slightly as if he had anticipated my arrival.
"He has the Lapis Mirror, which can hide his presence within the Three Realms."
"Can you help me?"
"Hahaha, how amusing. Since you came to me, you must have known I have the power to help you. I am not bound by the Three Realms; what can a mere Lapis Mirror do to me?" He floated down from the icy peak, his purple robe fluttering. He took out a black fan and lifted my chin.
"But what can you offer me?"
Despite my thousand years of spiritual training and unparalleled beauty, I was battered and exhausted from crossing Flame Mountain and Ice Blade. At this moment, I was kneeling at his feet, probably worthless in his eyes.
"You can take my life!" A few days ago, I was attacked by a spider spirit. I managed to defeat her with my cultivation, but with her last breath, she released her venom.
I didn't have long to live, maybe another hundred years. I just wanted to see Phil one last time. There were too many misunderstandings between us. I just wanted to see him again and explain the truth from back then.
Nolan laughed again, "What use is your life to me?" He leaned down to look at me. "I'm only interested in one thing."
"What? As long as I can do it, I will get it for you!"
"Love! The love that exists in all realms. I want to know if human love can pass my test. If you love Phil, then give me your Demon Spirit."
"Alright, I agree!"
"Hahaha, I don't need your Demon Spirit. Let's make a bet!"
His eyes were full of mockery. "I will let you find your beloved, but once you find him, you cannot explain the misunderstandings from back then unless he asks you. You cannot tell him you are poisoned, and you cannot tell him you are making a bet with me. If he sees your love for him, forgives you, and falls in love with you again within a year, I will return your Demon Spirit and remove the spider venom. Do you agree?"
This god outside the Three Realms wanted to amuse himself with me, to play games with the mortal world through me. The conditions he offered were so tempting, how could I refuse?
"I agree! What if he doesn't love me?"
"Then you will be shattered into pieces, your form and spirit destroyed, disappearing forever."
I spat out my Demon Spirit. "Deal!"
He gave me his fan, the Abyssal Bone Fan, which could protect me, temporarily delay the poison, and provide me with a continuous supply of spirit power since I no longer had my Demon Spirit.

I was too happy too soon, thinking that meeting Nolan was my opportunity. Not only did he help me see Phil again, but he also gave me hope to continue living. Little did I know that seeing Phil again was the beginning of my nightmare...
The next time I saw Phil was at the Mountain of Illusions.
I attended a grand assembly in the Demon Realm, mingling among the bustling crowd of demons.
He sat on the Demon King's throne, looking majestic, with a look of pride on his face.
Gone was the spirited youth from back then. Five hundred years had passed, and he had become the king of the Demon Realm.
He was a wolf demon and possessed the mystical Lapis Mirror. Everything seemed to fall into place; it was his destiny.
Finally, you and I met here.
I recalled our first meeting five hundred years ago, in the eye of a formation. He was trapped by a Taoist priest's formation, unable to move. He couldn't match my five hundred years of cultivation.
In the formation, he was in excruciating pain. When he saw me passing by, hope flashed in his eyes. "Fox Immortal sister! Save me."
I looked at this wolf demon with only three hundred years of cultivation with amusement. "Oh, save you? What benefit can I get?"
"My father is the Demon King. Our home has many rare treasures."
I teased, "You look good. How about I take you as my husband?"
He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. "Alright, I agree. If you save me, I will do as you say."
A small formation was naturally no challenge for me. I didn't intend to marry a wolf demon; I was just teasing him.
But unexpectedly, the formation was strong on the inside and weak on the outside. To save him, I expended a lot of energy and even lost a tail.
From then on, my nine tails became eight. I was injured and needed someone by my side. He took my joke seriously and stayed by my side, tending to my wounds and finding food for me, being caring and thoughtful, like a devoted husband.
I didn't think much of it. But when I recovered, I couldn't get rid of him.
He held my hand. "Why do you want to drive me away, my lady? Is it because I'm not doing well enough?"

"You're mine, little puppy," Kylan growled against my neck. A soft gasp escaped my lips as his lips brushed my skin. My mind screamed at me to push him away-the Lycan Prince who had humiliated me again and again, but my body betrayed me, leaning into him before I could stop myself. He pressed his lips against mine, and his kiss grew more aggressive, more possessive as I felt my legs weaken. What was I doing? In a split-second, I pulled away and slapped him hard across the face. Kylan's eyes darkened, but the smirk on his lips exposed his amusement. "You and I both know we can't fight this, Violet," he said, gripping my wrist. "You're my mate." "And yet you don't want me," I replied. "You told me you were ashamed of me, that l'd never be your queen, that you'd never love me. So please, accept my rejection and let me go." "Never," he whispered, his grip tightening as he pulled me closer. "Soon enough, you'll be begging for me. and when you do-I'll use you as I see fit and then I'll reject you."
"I've warned you from the beginning. Don't marry him, but you won't listen." She stood close to me and smiled with concern. "You are not a woman worthy of a man as handsome, rich, smart, and virile as Blaze." My whole body trembled at her words. "Have you no shame?" I asked in a quivering voice. "Take a good look at yourself, Heather." She looked at me in the mirror. "You can't even look at your ugly face. Do you think Blaze can endure a lifetime of looking at that face?" Heather Bailey had a surprise from her husband that night: a divorce agreement. After a year of marriage and facing ups and downs, she couldn't believe Blaze intended to divorce her. But she was devastated when she saw him gazing lovingly at another woman because that person was closest to her. Shortly after she put her signature on their divorce papers, shock waves caught her up. Her flower shop was severely burnt, beyond repair. Her father's company collapsed, and her parents blamed her. She struggled to rebuild her life from the ground up and became more successful than ever. Having many customers who came from influential families, she started her action against Blaze. She won the very thing he wanted. But that was just the beginning.
In her previous life, Kimberly endured the betrayal of her husband, the cruel machinations of an evil woman, and the endless tyranny of her in-laws. It culminated in the bankruptcy of her family, and ultimately, her death. After being reborn, she resolved to seek retribution against those who had wronged her, and ensure her family's prosperity. To her shock, the most unattainable man from her past suddenly set his sights on her. "You may have overlooked me before, but I shall capture your heart this time around."
"I, Riccardo Saviano, future Alpha of the Grey Shadow Moon Pack, reject you, Artemisia Guerrieri, Daughter of Alpha Franco of the Blood Moon Pack, as my mate and future Luna." One single sentence. One stupid single sentence was all it took to disintegrate my life. And the day of my birthday, on which this sentence was audaciously uttered to me, I lost the love of my life, my future mate, and my wolf, all at once. As I'm still assembling the pieces of my shattered heart years later, there they come. Like lightning out of a crystal blue sky. My Mates. But wait... If I am mated to triplets, how come I'm about to be mated to 5 gorgeous men? *** TW: explicit and foul language; spicy content; explicit sex scenes ***
Belinda thought after divorce, they would part ways for good - he could live his life on his own terms, while she could indulge in the rest of hers. However, fate had other plans in store. "My darling, I was wrong. Would you please come back to me?" The man, whom she once loved deeply, lowered his once proud head humbly. "I beg you to return to me." Belinda coldly pushed away the bouquet of flowers he had offered her and coolly replied, "It's too late. The bridge has been burned, and the ashes have long since scattered to the wind!"
