Poison Mist Apocalypse: The Female Leader Insists Her Demon Child Is a Spirit Pearl
Ryu · Completed · 7.5k Words
Introduction
She announced that she carried the child of a god—a child who would bring hope to the entire base.
Only I knew that what she bore was no divine offspring, but a demon that would devour every soul in the base.
Because in my previous life, I was the one it had gnawed to death, alive...
Chapter 1
The gnawing pain still lingered when I opened my eyes.
Inside the conference hall, Lily sat at the head seat. Her long golden hair glinted under the candlelight as she gently stroked her swollen belly.
I froze for a second, realizing I had been reborn.
Memories of my past life flooded back—two months ago, Lily had returned suddenly pregnant after going out, claiming it was a "miracle", a Chosen One born from the toxic mist. Everyone had believed her.
A year later, the creature was born.
She called it the "Divine Child", but its eyes were pitch-black, its mouth lined with sharp fangs.
It needed to feed. At first, it preyed on ordinary people, then later on ability users.
That day, I had just returned from a mission, covered all over in wounds.
The moment I stepped through the base gates, a piercing whoosh cut through the air behind me.
Lily's personal guards ambushed me, broke my limbs, and dragged me into that room.
Lily stood in the doorway, holding the "Divine Child" in her arms.
"Chu Men," she said softly, "you always said you’d do anything for me, didn’t you?"
She set the creature down inside the room and closed the door.
The monster pounced, starting to gnaw at my legs, working its way up to my chest.
An ability user’s extraordinary vitality let me stay conscious long enough to watch it devour my heart.
Lily stood outside the reinforced glass window, watching with a gentle, resolute expression.
Amid the agony, the purple crystal core I’d accidentally obtained on this mission brushed against my blood, turning into a streak of violet light that burrowed into my forehead.
Then came a pain more agonizing than being torn apart, followed by endless darkness…
"Chu Men?"
Lily’s voice jolted me back from my thoughts.
She tilted her head. "What were you daydreaming about?"
In my past life, her soft, tender words would always make my heart race. Now they only filled me with revulsion.
"My apologies, Leader. I was distracted."
She smiled warmly, then glanced around the hall. "I’ve called everyone here with wonderful news—my child, the Chosen One, has entered a period of rapid growth!"
"But its growth requires massive resources." Lily’s voice turned delicate. "Deep within the Ten Thousand Poison Abyss grows a fifth-order spiritual grass, translucent white all over, capable of accelerating the divine fetus’s growth. Chu Men, would you go there for me?"
Here it comes.
In my past life, I’d agreed to this request. I’d ventured into the Ten Thousand Poison Abyss, returned grievously injured, my power greatly diminished—and in the end, I’d become the first third-order ability user to be sacrificed.
Every gaze in the conference hall locked onto me, filled with disdain and mockery.
I was about to refuse when a sudden hum echoed in my mind.
It was the purple crystal core!
It had come back with my rebirth, sending a stream of information—it was the World Purification Divine Core, able to absorb all toxic mist energy.
The more poisonous the place, the stronger the poisonous beasts I killed, the faster my power would rise!
The Ten Thousand Poison Abyss was no death trap for me. It was a treasure land.
"I would do anything for you, Leader!" I quickly changed my words.
The looks in everyone’s eyes instantly turned to contempt and sneers.
"Brother Chu Men is truly our base’s hero!" Johns, Lily’s favorite consort, spoke up abruptly. "The Ten Thousand Poison Abyss is a place where even fifth-order experts face certain death. For you to risk yourself for the Leader is truly admirable!"
His face wore a smile, yet his eyes brimmed with sarcasm, clearly waiting to relish my predicament.
"Thank you for your concern." My tone was calm. "I will come back alive."
Johns’s smile froze for a moment.
"I believe in you." Lily reached out and took my hand. "Chu Men, you’ve always been the one I trust most. When you return, I’ll hold a feast to honor you myself."
Her gaze was soft enough to melt water, but all I felt was the urge to retch.
"I understand."
I lowered my head, pulled my hand free, and turned to walk out of the conference room.
As I passed the personal guard unit that had killed me in my past life, my face remained impassive, yet I struggled to contain the killing intent raging in my heart.
I was only a third-order ability user. The base held three fourth-order users and ten third-order ones. Now was not the time to strike.
I had to grow stronger.
The Ten Thousand Poison Abyss lay thirty kilometers north of the base.
Beneath its entrance roiled thick purple toxic mist, dense as boiling liquid. Ordinary humans would mutate into venomous beasts within a second of stepping foot here, and even ability users had to exhaust great strength to resist the mist’s corrosion.
But the World Purification Divine Core in my mind grew warm.
It craved to absorb the toxic mist’s power.
I jumped down.
Purple mist surged over me in an instant, a stinging sensation spreading across my body—yet soon the sharp pain melted into coolness.
I could feel my strength rising, the bottleneck of the third-order weakening.
Three days passed.
By noon on the fourth day, I found the spiritual grass growing atop a cliff, guarded by a peak third-order giant scorpion.
After a brutal battle, I slew the scorpion and absorbed its energy.
Crack!
A cracking sound echoed inside me. I had broken through to the fourth-order!
The surging power within made me feel capable of defeating everyone in the base, yet I forced myself to stay calm. I carefully plucked the spiritual grass and left the abyss.
Rather than risk fighting the others here and now, it would be far sweeter revenge to level up alone, let Lily give birth to that monster, and watch my enemies—even Lily herself—be devoured by it.

Accardi
“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”

Moonfire: Betrayed By The Alpha
Alpha Caden Blackwell believed those words would break me. That after three years of marriage marked by silence, humiliation, and quiet rejection, I would fear a life without him.
I did once.
As the Luna of the Shadowcrest Pack, I gave everything to a man my wolf recognized as her mate, enduring whispers, cold stares, and a pack that never truly accepted me. I stayed because I believed love required endurance. Because I believed patience would one day be rewarded.
That belief shattered the night Caden welcomed his former lover back into our home, along with a child he claimed as his heir. It ended the moment his choices nearly cost me my life and the life of one of my unborn pups. Leaving was no longer a matter of pride. It was survival.
Caden does not know the woman who walked away. He still sees the Luna who waited, who forgave, who loved without limits. He does not see Nova Ashton, a woman capable of rebuilding her identity and claiming a future on her own terms.
I will never crawl back.
The CEO Above My Desk
“I know she does.”
“And what if she doesn’t want this kind of protection?”
“She will,” I say, my voice lowering slightly. “Because she needs a man who can give her the world.”
“And if the world burns?”
My hand tightens subtly at Violet’s waist.
“Then I’ll build her a new one,” I reply. “Even if I have to burn the old one down myself.”
I don’t work for Rowan Ashcroft.
I work beneath him.
From my desk, I decide who gets access to the most ruthless CEO in the city, and who never makes it past the lobby. I manage his time, his silence, his enemies. I keep his world running while my own quietly collapses under unpaid bills, a mother locked in rehab, and a brother who vanished without a goodbye.
Rowan Ashcroft is power wrapped in a tailored suit.
Cold. Untouchable. Merciless.
He doesn’t flirt. He doesn’t smile. He doesn’t see people, only usefulness.
And for a long time, I was just useful.
Until he started watching.
A shift in his attention is subtle at first. A pause too long. A look that lingers. Orders that pull me closer instead of pushing me away. The man who stands above my desk begins to control more than my schedule, and I realize too late that being noticed by Rowan Ashcroft is far more dangerous than being ignored.
Because men like him don’t crave affection.
They crave possession.
This was supposed to be a job.
Not a test of my limits.
Not a slow, deliberate descent into his authority.
But if Rowan Ashcroft decides I belong under his desk, then so be it.
Survival has a price, and the bills don’t care how I pay them.
Filled, Owned, and Fucked by My Best Friend’s Father
He was supposed to be off-limits. Untouchable. The kind of man you only fantasize about when you’re alone in the dark with your hand between your thighs.
But the night I caught him eating another woman alive by the pool, I couldn’t look away.
And he knew it.
The moment his dark eyes locked on mine through the glass, I became prey. His filthy smirk promised one thing—he saw me touching myself to him, and he wasn’t about to let me forget it.
Now, every time I’m in his house, I can’t breathe without thinking of his mouth between my legs.
I left my cheating boyfriend behind, only to fall into something even more dangerous:
a man who could ruin me, break me, and make me beg for his cock while his own daughter sleeps in the next room.
He’s too old. Too powerful. Too forbidden.
But Gianni doesn’t ask—he takes.
And I don’t want him to stop.

Instead, his dorm room sits directly across from hers, close enough that she can see his light go out at night. Some nights, he climbs the old maintenance trellis just to check on her. He teaches her chess. He shows up exactly when something's gone wrong—and never once asks to be thanked for it.

He doesn't answer.
So she asks: 'What are we?’
He told her not to fall in love with one piece.

The Mafia King's Unknown Doctor Wife
After Divorce，I Became His Only Love
Then, on their wedding anniversary, she walked into his private club and heard him whisper to another woman: "Take care of our baby."
The woman was his brother's wife.
Everything—the gentleness, the restraint, the so-called love—had been an elaborate performance. And when Serena demanded a divorce, Leo didn't beg. He didn't apologize. He smiled and said: "Your grandmother wouldn't want that."

And he has secrets of his own.
My Billionaire Husband's Secret
He was the CEO of the Blackwood Group — a man whose wealth and power eclipsed ninety-nine percent of the world.
He was gentle. Romantic. Attentive. I fell for him fast.
But a year into our marriage, I began to notice something — a pattern.
Lucas's sexual appetite was intense — he wanted me almost every night. Yet every single month, he arranged a solo trip to send me away. I told myself it was his way of spoiling me.
Then a message arrived from someone called Sweet An.
Do you really know your husband?
From that day on, my life filled with shadows.
I suspected my husband of having an affair.
When Lucas and I made love, something felt wrong — his body too large, too much, like something I couldn't explain.
I heard sounds during sex — animal sounds, like something feral had crawled into bed with us.
My best friend Mia said: "There are men sick enough to let dogs fuck their wives."
The family doctor, Daisy, told me: "You could never stay by Lucas's side forever. Your background doesn't make you worthy of being his wife. Do you understand?"
I went looking for whoever had been tearing my marriage apart. I fought to win my husband back.
But the deeper I searched, the larger the secret grew — something far darker hiding beneath this supposed betrayal.
Does Lucas truly love me?
And why, out of everyone in the world, did he choose to marry me?
