Summary
Paul froze. His lips paralysed against Feyd’s and the cold kiss of steel at his jugular.
"How fitting." He thought to himself, strangely distant from the events that were currently unfolding, "That I should end my first kiss with a knife to my throat."
“I did warn you.” Feyd breathed into his ear. It made every hair on Paul’s body stand on end. “Anything could happen.”
*
After Paul takes the Water of Life he can see the future of every person in the universe except for one - Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen. So when every path that he can see leads to billions of deaths, he takes the only one that he can't. In order to kill Muad'Dib, Paul offers himself up to his worst enemy.

Summary
Six months ago, a devastating qi deviation had ruined Shen Jiu's cultivation and with it, his chances of becoming peak lord. Now, his Shizun offered him an unexpected opportunity: Cang Qiong was seeking a marriage alliance with one of the sects of the other human realm, where Yunmeng Jiang's young sect leader was in dire straits and infamously unwed, to boot. As one last favor to repay Shen Jiu for years of service, he would ensure Shen Jiu was chosen as Cang Qiong's match.
Marrying a leader instead of becoming one wasn't what Shen Jiu had worked so hard for, but if this was his last, best chance at securing a future for himself, he would damn well fight tooth and nail for it (and maybe, just maybe, his cultivation wouldn't be so broken at all by the standards of a realm where nobody ascended and immortality was the stuff of legends.)
Jiang Cheng just wanted to get through one fucking date without fucking it up. Just once. Please.
