Married To Void

Andy_Alice
[Content Notice: This novel contains mature themes] "You said you had someone else—you never told me you had interest in a man!" Rosamund’s voice cracked, tears streaking her cheeks as she backed away, the weight of betrayal crushing her breath. Harold’s gaze didn’t waver. "How much clearer did you need me to be?" He stepped closer, his hand brushing her face with a tenderness that now felt like a lie. "I told you I had no desire for you. That I only agreed to this marriage for an heir. Society demanded, that I must have a companion and an heir. I never promised you love." His hand fell, but his hazel eyes pinned her in place. "That secret was mine to bury. You walked into this marriage with your eyes open." --- Rosamund, the overlooked third daughter of the Earl of Warwick, thought she’d escaped her fate when the Duke of Somerset rescued her from ruin. After blinding the Marquess’s son, William, in defence for a maid, she became entangled in a scandal that left her parents with no choice but to accept his marriage proposal. But on the brink of being assaulted by her own betrothed, salvation came in the form of Harold—cold, calculating, and disarmingly honest. Their marriage was never meant to be a love story. Harold made his terms clear: a political alliance, an heir, and nothing more. Yet Rosamund, desperate for solace in her gilded cage, dared to hope for warmth. Until the truth shattered her—Harold’s heart belonged to another, and she was trapped in a marriage of devastating loneliness. Now, Rosamund must confront the bitter reality: will Harold ever let her past his walls, or is she doomed to a life of hollow duty, forever bound to a man who cannot love her, remain married to void?

Douluo Continent: Mirror Dance Across The Sky, Shattering The Gods

Unexpectedly transmigrating to the Douluo Continent, he became a newborn baby abandoned in the wild by his biological parents. Fortunately, a patrol of Spirit Hall soldiers passed by, and a couple in the patrol adopted the infant, naming him Dongfang Jing. Three years later, the couple had a daughter named Dongfang Yao. However, one day, their parents suddenly passed away, and from then on, the brother and sister depended on each other for survival. He was her support, the ray of light the girl longed for most. She was his little sun, the only warmth in the boy's cold world. At the age of six, Dongfang Jing awakened his Martial Soul Shattered Mirror and innate full soul power, and a 'mirror image' identical to his was born. In order to gain the power to protect his sister, the boy repeatedly broke the rules, cultivating the Shattered Mirror Martial Soul to its peak. From then on, in the Soul Master world, no one could help but tremble at the mention of that silver-haired boy. Dai Mubai: "Impossible! He's the same age as me, so why is his soul power so much higher than mine?!" Ma Hongjun: "Ugh~ My Demon Orb!!! He was clearly hundreds of meters away from me, how did he attack me?" Tang San: "I can't tell, I really can't tell! Which one is his true form?" Grandmaster: "My theory is never wrong! This must be an illusion, hahahahaha!" Qian Renxue: "Such a genius must be used by me!" Tang Hao: "You hindered Xiao San's growth, so I must kill... Hmm? How did Ah Yin end up in your hands?" Dongfang Yao: "Brother is mighty(??????)??" (This story involves torturing Tang San and Ma Hongjun, without forcibly vilifying any factions or having them join any sects, but there will be some plot development.)
