Matriarchy: I Became the Female Emperor's Bedside Jade Rabbit

Shen Jingmian, a university student in the biology department, woke up to find he had been reincarnated as the weakest species in the demon realm: a snow-white rabbit.

Before he could even figure out what was happening, he was offered up as a “sacrifice” to the legendary Snake Empress, Yu Yuan, infamous for her brutality and cold-blooded nature.

Rumor had it the empress was icy and cruel, and delighted in torturing her prey. Just as Shen Jingmian thought he was about to become a spicy rabbit head, the breathtakingly beautiful empress picked him up, frowned, and studied him for a long time. Then, expressionless, she tucked him into her cold, coiling tail.

“You’re so warm,” she said concisely, in a tone that left no room for argument. “From now on, you’re in charge of warming my bed.”

Shen Jingmian: “???”

He fought back with all his might, only for the empress to carry him, nest and all, back to her chambers and wrap him up in layer upon layer of her tail.

“Run again, and I’ll confiscate all your carrots.”

Looking at the single carrot left in her arms, Shen Jingmian was furious but didn’t dare say a word. Eyes reddening and fur standing on end, he curled up into an angry little ball.

Everyone thought the poor little rabbit wouldn’t last three days.

Until one winter, they saw the usually unsmiling empress tuck the rabbit into the scales over her heart and softly coax him, “There, don’t be mad. Tonight, you can be on top.”

The demons: ...We can’t believe our eyes!
