More completed matriarchal romance novels are available in my collection!

The day Prince Huai died, heir apparent Chu Yuqin inherited her mother’s title.

When she took charge of Prince Huai’s estate, she unexpectedly found a pretty young husband inside. His clothes didn’t look like a servant’s.

Chu Yuqin suddenly remembered that Prince Huai had died of illness, and had married someone to bring him good fortune shortly before his death. The timid-looking man before her was that very person, named Jun Wu.

She raised Jun Wu’s chin and asked, “How old are you?”

Terrified by her dark-jade eyes, the man looked away and dared not lie. “Twenty...”

Chu Yuqin clicked her tongue, put off by his age, and lost interest. She brushed him off: “You can stay. It’s not like I can’t spare you a meal.”

Jun Wu was already married and had nowhere else to go, so he thanked her profusely.

Chu Yuqin never took seriously this man who seemed neither particularly striking nor clever, and was boring to boot.

She called him in a cold voice, summoned him whenever she pleased and dismissed him just as readily. Only when she was in a good mood did she call him “Little Father.”

Yet in the middle of the night, as if possessed, she would lean against the quilt and pillow Jun Wu had slept on, imagining pulling him tight into her arms and leaving the mark of her presence on every inch of him.

Later, someone tried to send a man into Prince Huai’s estate and arranged to drug Chu Yuqin.

She didn’t even glance at the man who was sent to her. Instead, she turned and went into the quiet side courtyard.

Jun Wu was fast asleep when someone suddenly pulled the covers off him. He opened his eyes to find Chu Yuqin’s dark gaze. She smiled and stroked his face, her voice like a ghost’s: “I’ve kept you all this time. It’s about time you repaid me.”

Both protagonists are virgins. Gender-bender romance.

The heroine is cruel and lacks normal human emotions.

The protagonists are not related by blood.

Theme: Beautiful love makes people happy
