[Satisfying and empowering | Over-the-top fighting skills | Sharp-tongued, calculating older woman | Younger devoted powerhouse | Evenly matched tension | Thrilling twists]
Pei Mi is carefree, unruly, and crazy, with top-notch fighting skills. She's calculating, holds grudges, and never lets anyone get the better of her.
By chance, she picked up a well-behaved, gentle “homeless boy.” Softheartedly, she took him in, thinking she'd adopted an obedient little cat.
Day by day, the pretense of gentleness was torn away.
What she'd raised wasn't a cat at all, but a hungry wolf, fangs hidden, possessive and deranged.
Lu Jin is a young man in power who can turn the tides with a wave of his hand and strike fear into everyone's heart.
To the outside world, he's ruthless and cold, with no regard for others. Everyone fears his brutal methods.
Only before Pei Mi does he rein in all his sharp edges. His obsession grows addictive, his possessiveness runs wild, and he tightens his hold on her bit by bit, binding her heart inch by inch.
The world laughs that Pei Mi is reaching above her station by pursuing a powerful man. Only Lu Jin knows that he willingly bowed his head, surrendered himself, and clung to her, refusing to let go.
He always wants to clear away every obstacle for her, but every time, the crazy, sharp-tongued woman stops him cold.
“My affairs are none of your business.”
The young man lowers his eyes, taming his viciousness as he obediently steps back behind her, but his gaze remains filled with a bone-deep obsession.
His gentleness is a disguise; his submission is indulgence.
Neither can tame the other, and neither can live without the other.
