Overnight, she went from an ordinary woman to a caged bird in a gilded prison.
Thin black chains wound around her wrists and neck, locking her beside a cold seven-string zither. Flickering candlelight revealed a man who seemed both godlike and demonic: the Marquis of Zhenbei. His dark crimson eyes looked down at her as though appraising a piece of exquisite merchandise.
“After passing three rounds of selection, you’ll do, barely.” He pronounced her fate. “From now on, I am your master, your heaven.”
She scoffed, pride burning through her humiliation. She was no “concubine to bear an heir.” This was an absurd mistake. Yet in this isolated villa on the lake, no one would listen to her protests. Every attempt to struggle brought only a sharper clink of chains and an even tighter hold over her.
As hatred grew, she vowed to escape. But his fingers brushed her chin, and he murmured in a voice like poison, “I’ve always enjoyed taming the wild and unruly.”
A tale of possessive love born of a mistake, a long struggle for dignity. She is an unexpected variable on his chessboard, and he is the “heaven” she is destined to topple.
