The Mad Young Lord's Captive Darling

[Historical Romance] [Unhinged] [One-on-One Romance] [Completely Faithful] [Forced Love] [Sweet and Angsty] [Both Leads Are Chaste] [Mutual (Supposed) Redemption]

She is a gentle, talented young lady from a prominent family in the capital.

He is the capital's famously idle young heir, mild-mannered and courteous, and he dotes on her beyond measure, making everyone around them envious.

Until the day she catches him smiling as he flicks blood from his blade. Only then does she finally see him for what he is: a madman wearing human skin.

"H-Husband, why did you kill her?"

"She displeased Shu'er."

"I... I didn't!"

"You did." He grips her wrist and pulls her hand to his heart. "The slightest displeasure from Shu'er makes my heart feel as if it's being torn apart. So anyone who makes you suffer, I'll make disappear."
