One-on-one, both devoted to each other: a dark, brooding ghost of a man vs. a gentle, resilient beauty
[An obsessive, lovesick tyrant who takes her by force]
Yu Manjiao is a distinguished young lady from Chayang County. She marries her childhood sweetheart, and on their wedding night, they enter the palace to search for his long-lost little brother.
Mistaking the seventh prince, who lives in the Cold Palace, for her brother-in-law because of a jade pendant, she personally saves him from the depths of despair.
She never imagined that this mistake would invite a wolf into her home and bring disaster upon herself.
He is sinister, possessive, and utterly mad.
After meticulously plotting his every move, he seizes power and ascends the throne, imprisoning her in the palace.
He destroys her marriage, takes away her freedom, and claims her body.
Yet in the end, he still foolishly hopes she will love him in return.
She asks for only two things:
First, for her parents to be reunited and stay together.
Second, to live in harmony with her husband, in peaceful days together.
Instead, her unhinged brother-in-law drags her into an obsessive love that will ruin them both.
Swearing an oath with blood and hatred, she declares, “I will never fall in love with a madman like you in this life!”
Jun Huaizhi, the little monster of the Cold Palace, has suffered humiliation and abuse since birth. He thought he would rot there for the rest of his life.
Then Yu Manjiao came into his life like a ray of light. Mistaking him for her husband’s little brother, she reached out and pulled him from endless darkness.
She was the only light he had ever known. From then on, his obsession grew unchecked. He would use any means necessary to keep her locked by his side.
He braced himself against the bed, iron chains coiling around his palms, winding tighter and tighter around her slender ankles.
“Sister-in-law, do you know how long I’ve wanted to do this?”
His eyes were red with obsession as he leaned toward the pale, terrified woman before him.
Desire surged wildly in his eyes…
