Only I Am A Reader

“Don’t make a scene, Marcus.” Sophia’s eyes, always so cold, flicked over him as if he were an unwanted stain. “A Saintess can’t be sullied by a man like you. Keep your distance.” For three years, Marcus Steel was a ghost in his own marriage. His wife, worshipped for her holy power, never let him near—not even a touch, not a night together. Yet every gathering, she let Alexander—her so-called ‘brother,’ his former best friend—rest his head in her lap, her hand stroking his hair, their laughter intimate and careless for the world to see. “Does it ever bother you?” Marcus whispered one night, desperation thick in his voice. “That you give him what you never gave me?” Sophia only smiled, distant as ever. “Alexander needs me. You… you’re just my duty.” When the earthquake shattered the banquet hall, Marcus reached for her through the falling debris. “Sophia! Please! Just take my hand—help me!” But her golden barrier was already around Alexander. She didn’t even look at Marcus as he screamed, “I’m your husband! Don’t leave me—” “I can’t save everyone,” she said, voice like ice. “Alex is injured. I promised to protect him.” As rubble crushed his body and hope faded, something ancient awoke in Marcus. Flames danced in his blood, power surging from the pain, the betrayal. From the ashes of humiliation and heartbreak, a dragon roared to life. Marcus Steel is dead. The Dragon King rises—and the Saintess will beg for mercy she never showed.

I wasn’t reborn pure. I wasn’t reborn righteous. I was reborn unfinished. In a fractured fantasy world where cultivation advances through Marital Arts, power is forged through soul-bonds—vows that can elevate partners together or enslave them forever. Strength is no longer solitary. Love, betrayal, and shared destiny decide who ascends. Aren Valen awakens as the weakest outer disciple of the Azure Pact, carrying memories that should have died with him. In a past life, he was the Dragon Sovereign, erased at the brink of ascension by those he trusted most. Now, his Dragon Core is shattered and sealed, immune to orthodox cultivation. It awakens only through bonds freely chosen—not forced, not stolen. As ancient Dragon Veins stir, cultivation laws begin to collapse. Sects fall overnight. Empires rise on corrupted Marital Arrays that chain partners instead of empowering them. Defying all doctrine, Aren unlocks the forbidden Dragon Marital Codex, a path where power is shared without submission. Each bond awakens a Dragon aspect—Wrath, Wisdom, Dominion, Mercy—at a cost paid in trust and blood. Fate draws powerful women into his orbit: a sword cultivator haunted by memories of loving a Dragon, a rogue spirit alchemist hungry for forbidden truth, a fallen imperial princess seeking control, and a beast-blood warrior torn between instinct and reason. They are allies, rivals, and potential betrayers. But the past has returned. Aren’s former betrayers have reincarnated too, now ruling the new era—and they intend to erase him again by turning his own bonds against him. The Dragon needed a harem. The world is about to learn why.

"Daddy?" The small voice stopped Logan Hayes in his tracks, and his heart skipped a beat. He turned to face the boy staring up at him with wide eyes, eyes that reflected his own. "What did you call me?" Logan asked, his voice thick with disbelief and surprise, he has been waiting all his life for someone to call him a dad. "You're back?" Maya Dawson’s voice cut through the air, tense with shock and an unmistakable hint of anger. Logan turned slowly, meeting the gaze of the woman he had spent five years dreaming of. "I never wanted to leave." His words came out as a plea, filled with emotion. Maya shook her head, with a cold tone. "You didn't just leave, Logan. You disappeared." Logan stepped closer, narrowing his eyes. "You think I abandoned you? It was your family, Maya. They forced me out. I fought my way back for you only to find you married to someone else." Her voice wavered as she whispered, "You have no right to come back and disrupt my life now. Richard is my husband." Logan's voice dropped to a low, intense whisper. "Is he my son?" Maya’s silence told him everything. Five years ago, Logan Hayes was forced out of Maya Dawson’s life, pressured by her powerful family into walking away from their marriage. Once a struggling dock worker and the illegitimate son of the Carlton family, Logan left without a word, leaving Maya heartbroken and convinced he had abandoned her.

They call me Julian Mercer and I keep my head down because I learned the hard way that a name can be a target. I answered an ad for a rental and signed a paper I promised myself I’d never sign: a marriage contract. The job was simple — be the son-in-law for thirty days, take the money, be gone. The family needs a “son” to secure a heritage grant and I need the cash to buy a clean slate. What I didn’t plan for was the way Lila Ardmore looked at me like she already knew what I was hiding. Another thing I didn’t plan for was the ledger in an old piano and the way a neighbor called my mother’s name, and the knot in my gut that felt like an alarm the night someone tried to burn the past into ash. I came to act. I stayed to fix what I broke, and the longer I stayed the more I realized the man I was taught to be will not survive who I have to become. If you want my story, read it from where the dark starts.

If the world can't control itself, then I'll conquer it and lead us to survival.
