After I Trained Him Into a Mad Emperor, He Forced Me to Love Him

[A brooding, unhinged, lovesick emperor x a lofty, cool-headed female Grand Tutor]

Dominance-and-submission romance | Intense push and pull | A brooding, obsessive male lead | Bringing him down from his pedestal

“Your hand has gone red from striking me again, Grand Tutor… It’s time I punished you instead.”

The eighteen-year-old emperor gripped the ruler that had disciplined him for six years, gazing at the female Grand Tutor before him with yearning surging in his eyes.

-

She was the only female Grand Tutor in the entire court, charged by the late empress with educating the gloomy, obsessive young prince, who was only twelve at the time.

The ruler in her hand had reddened his palm, and she had even struck his waist and buttocks. She thought it was all part of a strict teacher’s duty.

Little did she know that the boy’s feelings for her had changed over the years.

She punished him by making him kneel, but he craved the scent of her skirts and wanted to kneel at her feet.

She struck his palm, and he enjoyed it, fantasizing about her ruler falling somewhere even more forbidden.

Six years later

When she tried to strike his palm as usual, the young emperor caught her by the wrist. His gaze had grown unmistakably wrong.

He pinned her beneath him and rasped,

“For six years, Grand Tutor, you taught me. Now it’s time for your student to repay your kindness.”

“You taught me to master myself and observe propriety. So why are you trembling now, Grand Tutor?”

At twenty-four, the Grand Tutor was in the prime of her life, a perfect age to marry. But he tore her away from her husband and brought her into his harem…

[He had kept his feelings hidden for six years. For the sake of propriety between teacher and student, he had worn the mask of respectability in every unseen corner, until at last he ripped it away.]
