Jiao Yimo was one of the most powerful nobles in the realm.
By day, he was impeccably dressed. When his illness struck, he became a beast, and he nearly strangled the woman chosen for him in a political marriage.
Her family was not as powerful as the Jiao family, so they deliberately sent Ping Wan in another woman’s place to serve the dangerous, violent Jiao Yimo.
In the Jiao family residence,
Ping Wan was bent backward, pinned against a chair.
Her fair neck was only inches from his mouth,
and his teeth were about to tear into her throat.
As danger drew near,
Ping Wan’s lashes trembled, but she didn’t run.
Instead, she wrapped her arms around him and offered her neck, as if she welcomed it. “Bite me, just... bite gently.”
His wild eyes fixed on her in shock.
He bared his canine teeth and leaned in,
then gently licked the patch of skin.
Not long after Ping Wan tamed the beast,
the person whose place she had taken in the marriage began to regret it.
A beast who submitted to only one person,
handsome, wealthy, and gentle:
why should Ping Wan be the only one to have him?
Theme: I will always believe in love, and in you.
