   Reader note

   The female lead is a true world-destroying black dragon, capable of transforming into a dragon, possessing unparalleled combat power, and an insatiable possessiveness. The male lead, originally of noble birth, with an engagement, dignity, and a complete life of his own, is forcibly taken away by her. The more he resists, the more she wants to possess him. The early stages feature a strong female lead and a weak male lead, with intense possessiveness and oppressive tension; the later stages are a morbidly sweet romance. Those who enjoy mature women, queens, villainous women, female-dominated/GB (Gender-bending) stories, and possessive, yandere protagonists should check this out.
