President Pei, You’ve Gotten Addicted to Keeping Me Captive. Could You Be Gentler?

Mutual firsts + powerful warlord + male lead takes her by force + cross-border romance + size difference + devoted husband + age gap + addictive plot + captivity romance Qian Ning travels far away to Country M to find her mother's keepsake, only to fall into a trap. Rescued by Pei Yan, a mixed-race business magnate and warlord, she is confined in his gilded cage. What begins as a game spirals into an obsessive fixation. By day, he is a devoted, possessive puppy; by night, he transforms into a ravenous wolf demanding her love... - “Don't bite your lip... Or perhaps you'd rather let me do it for you.” “You say no, but your body tells the truth, my little liar.” “The Bible says to love your neighbor as yourself... But I'd rather love you into becoming my 206th bone.” “Even your fear smells sweet. Are you some kind of poison made especially to undo me?” - “Everyone fears me. You're the only one who's ever made me taste fear for the first time: fear that you'll frown, fear that you'll cry, fear that the light will disappear from your eyes when you look at me.” “Qian Ning, I don't think... anyone ever taught me how to love someone normally. Will you teach me? I might be a slow learner.” “Have these lips” (he points to his own) “ever said they love me? Even... if it was a lie...” - “I'm not a good man, but loving you is the only thing I've ever done right.” “Letting you go isn't admitting defeat. It's because I've finally understood that loving you matters more than possessing you.” “I'll let you go, and I beg you... every now and then, let the madman who became someone else because he loved you go, too.” “Go somewhere I can never find you easily again. Look at the sunshine there for me, and see if it's warmer.” - Pei Yan, you asked me whether loving you was worth it. You should know that love doesn't ask whether it's worth it.
