The Emperor and a Scholar: GB

“Smiling assassin, scheming emperor × tender and fragile cat-loving scholar” In the third year of Yannning, Emperor Yuan Yi was traveling south when a cat latched onto him. The cat’s owner was a gentle scholar who knelt at the captain of the guards’ feet, begging him to spare his cat. But anyone who offended the imperial procession was sure to die. The scholar even cursed aloud in front of the person in the palanquin. “Godlike flesh, bones of the dead. Fine carriages fill the vermin-strewn streets!” Later, Yuan Yi suddenly laughed inside the palanquin. When she stepped down, she saw the scholar holding his cat and weeping bitterly. She thought, How interesting… So she spared the cat and took the scholar away. * The palace library was packed from wall to wall with books. The scholar stared in amazement, then started begging Yuan Yi for one or two books, offering all sorts of things in exchange. On the first day, Yuan Yi had him grind ink for her; The next day, she had him make some pastries; In the end, she had him serve her in bed. The scholar refused, bundled up his clothes, and tried to run away. But then he heard a cat meow. Faced with the furball, full and content, he hurriedly came back. * Song Heng was a poor scholar who had never seen much of the world. He certainly never expected to meet Emperor Yuan Yi. His cat had offended the emperor, and the cat was about to die. He was willing to take its place and accept the punishment. After he was brought into the palace, Yuan Yi was perfect in every way, except for how stingy she was with the books in her cabinet. At first, he only had to grind ink every day to earn a book or two to read. Gradually, he had to cook for her in all sorts of ways to please her palate before he could even lay a finger on the classics. Then one day, Yuan Yi got drunk and insisted he serve her in bed before she’d let him so much as look at those treasures. Caught between embarrassment and feeling unworthy of her, he chose to bundle up the clothes on the bed and go outside to clear his head. But just as he was about to leave, he saw the cat he hadn’t seen in ages. She’d taken such good care of the little thing that he burst into tears of gratitude. At that moment, he didn’t care how lowly his status was or how shameless he might seem. He only knew he had to serve her well to repay her… for taking care of his cat? But it wasn’t the cat who gradually became unable to leave her. It was him. He carefully studied her preferences, and wrote down every moment when she made him ache and blush from head to toe. But who could have guessed she’d find it?! A cat-themed upcoming novel in the same series: Forcefully Claiming That Little White Flower Omega [GB]. Please add it to your collection! Violent, unruly Alpha × pure, frail Omega | Forced possession Si Yu is a low-ranking citizen of the Outer Zone. With both legs disabled, he depends on a black cat for company. To support himself and his cat, he works every day at a flower shop. But as the smoke of war spreads, the job is no longer enough to support them. Then his neighbor tells him that E Base has support positions for disabled Omegas. Si Yu doesn’t hesitate. He takes his resume to the agreed-upon location. Then the office door slams shut, and an S-rank Alpha in a confused state pins him to the desk and forcibly gives him a temporary mark. When the despairing Omega realizes his neighbor tricked him, he tells himself it was only a nightmare. But whenever the lights go out, the overpowering pheromones that suddenly flood his home and the fingers gripping his lower back constantly remind him that he won’t be able to escape from now on. Since he can’t run on his disabled legs, he can only tremble beneath the other person’s shadow and threaten to report her to the protection agency. But the moment he sees expensive cat food and cans mysteriously appearing on the floor, and his kitten eating its fill, he silently closes the open screen with tears in his eyes. * Fortunately, this life of enduring mistreatment doesn’t last long. Si Yu finds a new job and can finally get away from her. But on the day he starts at Wright Academy, he catches the scent of that same forceful pheromone in the classroom. He finishes the entire class with fear in his heart. As he turns to erase the notes from the display, the familiar person behind him presses close again. He hears someone call her… Principal Tan. The principal asks him, “How’s your cat doing lately?” * Tan Man is a young general in the WR Empire and the honorary principal of Wright Academy. Because she suffers from mania, she often loses control during her heat. A sycophantic subordinate arranged for a pretty Omega with disabled legs to comfort her. Those tearful eyes that inspired pity in the dark, that slender waist and long legs, and their perfect compatibility made Tan Man seek him out again and again. At first, he offered her pointless resistance. Later, he gradually gave in because of the cat. His stubborn yet timid demeanor always appealed to her. And while he thinks he’s escaping on his own, he’s actually falling deeper into her control. As long as he has that cat with him, a single word from her will make him tremble. All she has to do each day is feed the black cat, then keep the frail, helpless Omega in her arms and stroke his swollen belly after their overly intense encounters.
