She was the young lord of the Sword Sect's fiancée, but before they could marry, he died. As she mourned him as a widow, tears in her eyes, she gathered his former followers around her.
Later, while still young, she united more than half the martial world, until even the emperor bowed to her and followed her commands.
It was said that many of the most extraordinary men in the land admired her and longed to be her lover, each becoming one of her wings.
But she never married again.
Every year, on a certain day, she shed tears for him. People said she never chose another in her entire life because she could not forget his melancholy eyes.
Then, years later, on a snowy night, he returned to the sect.
"Your wife is truly devoted to you..." An old acquaintance looked at him with envy.
"Is she?" the young, handsome man replied coldly. "I never knew I had a wife."
His acquaintance stared at him in shock. "Huh? The one seated at the head of the sect..."
"That bitch is the one who killed me."
He had come back with his sword to take revenge. After being trapped in the Abyss beneath the earth for so many years, he had reached the end of his patience.
.
But after he kicked the door open and held his sword to her throat, she actually tilted her neck and brushed her cheek against the edge of his blade. Her beautiful eyes were tender and innocent. "You're back."
Just like when they were young.
He suddenly changed his mind.
"I hear you're my wife, that you're madly in love with me and have kept yourself chaste all these years..."
He shifted his sword an inch and gritted his teeth. "Then you don't have to keep yourself chaste anymore."

[Notes]
1. Both leads have only ever been with each other. One-on-one romance, happy ending.
2. I'll add more if I think of anything.
3. I might change the protagonists' names if I think of better ones.
