Oh No, a Green-Eyed Incubus!

What is a succubus?

First, they have to be good-looking.

Second, they have to know how to make use of their looks.

And finally, they have to be as greedy as a demon.

Quinn Emerson comes from a tiny, nowhere town in Wyoming. He's shallow and unruly, fierce as a stray dog, and yet undeniably beautiful. His green eyes, set beneath a high nose and deep-set brows, are clear and dreamy, like Narcissus from myth, whose beauty made even the gods sigh.

Cheng Sushang loves his pretty face. Fortunately, when they first met, he was down on his luck, while she had money to spare. At her side, he is the very definition of someone who gets away with anything on the strength of his looks, spending her kindness without a care.

Sushang thought their time together was nothing more than a willing arrangement between a rich girl and a poor boy. Unfortunately, after her family fell on hard times, she could no longer afford the price of keeping him.

When they meet again, he has become Hollywood's hottest leading man. With his exceptional looks and successful investments, he has amassed his initial fortune at a remarkably young age. Sushang, meanwhile, is just an ordinary real estate agent in Manhattan, rushing around every day to make ends meet.

Quinn keeps reminding himself that he never fell for Cheng Sushang in the past, doesn't love her now, and never will.

And yet, even while insisting he could never like her, people have seen him pin Sushang in a corner of the pool and kiss her. She is trapped in his arms, kissed until she can hardly breathe. When she can't take it anymore and tries to push him away, he only loosens his arms a little, his lips still lingering over her cheeks and forehead.

Those with demonic beauty and bottomless greed are never satisfied.

He thinks that no matter how many times he pushes Sushang away, he can always find a way to make her come back.

Note:

1. Place names, buildings, and brands in the story are based on real ones, but have been substantially altered.

2. At its heart, this is a romance about the male and female leads drawing close while pushing each other away.

3. Neither lead is perfect. If you want a couple who share their feelings from the start and have a completely smooth romance, please turn back now.

4. The heroine is enrolled in a three-year master's program in fine arts, by design and not a plot hole. This gives her time to obtain legal work status, since her profession makes the traditional H-1B-to-green-card route difficult.
