The Beast's Black Rose

Dear little angels, I've been looking for a job lately, so updates will be delayed. But I promise I'll do my best to make up for it once I have more time.

Also, after I find a job, I may revise all the earlier chapters. The general story won't change, so if you don't mind, little angels, you can read them again from the beginning.

Please wait for me, little angels! Thank you for understanding! Muah!

After a life full of hardship, Aiden is weary deep down from all that life has put him through. Given a second chance at life, all he wants is to live peacefully until he dies.

But somewhere he cannot see,

A beast guards the treasure in its heart, watching it every moment. It longs for him without end: Hurry up, just a little faster. I have to hold back every single day, crushing my feelings for you and swallowing them down. Destroying your sense of self and making you unable to live without me would be so easy.

So please hurry and build up a resistance to my poison. Become someone who can keep living inside me, even after I swallow you whole.

Aiden: I don't know what I want, but I know I can get it from you.

Charles: I lived this life to meet you, and in the end, to die with you.

You are a flower seed, planted in my heart.

I long for it to send out shoots and sprout in my chest. I long for it to blossom in my heart.

The six meanings of the black rose:

① Tender sincerity

② One of a kind

③ You are a demon, and you belong to me

④ Loyalty and longing

⑤ A secret affair

⑥ I love you and would give everything for you

There may be many illogical parts in this novel. Although it's set in modern times, the author has never been abroad, so to keep the story from falling apart, I made the setting fictional. Many things in the story may be made up, so I hope readers who notice every little detail won't take them too seriously.

Finally! Thank you to every little angel willing to read my story!
