The Terminally-Ill Duke Clings to Me Every Night (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 87
Leah bit her lip hard, as if to hold back tears. She fully understood why Akia was avoiding her.
She knew he didn’t want to gain anything precious, having lived his entire life as the ill-fated prince under constant threat to his life. And she also knew he felt deep guilt for her having been injured in his place.
‘But…’
Leah’s tightly bitten lip trembled faintly.
‘All I know are the few facts the Duke has briefly shared with me.’
She knew things like the Empress Dowager being behind the Emperor, and that the Emperor wasn’t of imperial blood.
She only had fragmented pieces of Akia’s past, like scattered puzzle pieces.
Yet more than those facts, Leah longed to understand his innermost feelings—what pain he endured as a child, and with what state of mind he had survived by swallowing poison.
‘If only the Duke had leaned on me just a little more…’
She knew why he avoided her, but he was only pushing her away from danger—he didn’t rely on her at all.
That truth filled Leah with sorrow.
Her vision blurred hazily as she gazed at Akia. He was someone she loved so deeply it made her chest ache just thinking of him.
‘Yet I don’t know anything about you at all.’
She couldn’t forget the look on Akia’s face when she’d woken after being attacked.

Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
Intro
As an enchantress, Su Heng possesses captivating eyes and charming beauty, easily manipulating the joys and sorrows of living beings at her fingertips.
But to enchant a god, making him taste the bitterness of love’s separation, long-lasting resentment, unattainable desires, and inability to let go…
Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.
The once gentle and polite youth has transformed into someone she no longer recognizes.
