Forced to Become the Heir’s Concubine, We Fall in Love After Marriage

A woman disguised as a man, married first and falling in love later, with sweet everyday romance. (Side couple: commandery princess x sister-in-law, forbidden love) To protect my grandmother, I was forced to marry the heir I despised as his concubine. I had seen them galloping down the main street, overturning my medicine stall and treating human lives like weeds. I had also seen her lounging against a painted pleasure boat in disheveled clothes, the very picture of a carefree playboy. But I never expected that, though I could avoid the disgust of our first meeting, I could not escape the narrow path fate had laid out for me. The heir of Prince Jing'an threatened my grandmother's life and tried to take me by force as his concubine. Just when I was at my wits' end, the person I despised just as much came to my rescue. To put an end to the heir of Prince Jing'an's hopes, and to keep my grandmother safe, I knelt before her and offered the only bargaining chip I had: “Please take me as your concubine, Your Highness, and give me somewhere to take shelter.” As the days passed after our wedding, my wariness gradually melted away. That initial dislike slowly turned to dependence, and before long, affection quietly took root. But my questions only grew: Why did this heir never truly touch her? Why did she look at her with a feeling that was so hard to describe? It was only when I tore open her bloodstained sleeve with my own hands to tend her wound that I saw it: not a man's body, but a woman's delicate form, just like mine. “I've got your secret now.” It turned out the marriage I had chosen for myself had long been destined to become the prelude to a love story that began after the wedding.
