A Prison of Passion: The Shadow That Never Saw the Light Has a Heartbeat!

Also known as "You Were a Startling Beauty, So Why Become a Shadow?" and "My Substitute Husband Is an Assassin"

- As the deadliest shadow assassin, I was ordered to get close to Lin Sijiao, the only daughter of Lin Bingren.

- I thought seducing a sheltered young lady would be easy, but the moment we met in the garden, she fell right into my arms.

- Her fingertips traced my Adam’s apple. “Cousin, why do your hands look so accustomed to wielding blades?”

- Breathing in the osmanthus scent in her hair, I forgot how to breathe for the first time in my life.

- By the bookshelf, she suddenly leaned close, her warm breath brushing my earlobe. “Cousin, your heart is beating so fast.”

- I froze like a stone, feeling the poison-coated dagger against my chest grow scorching hot

- It was supposed to pierce Lin Bingren’s heart, but now it was pressed against my own racing pulse.
