Taming Dragons Across the Nine Heavens

Xizhen was a pearl formed when a grain of sand wrapped around a tear of compassion shed by the goddess Nuwa as she mended the sky. She had slept for countless millennia in the depths of a frozen wasteland. At long last, she saw the light of day and took human form, only to suffer the slaughter of her entire clan.

After narrowly surviving, she met her master, who sealed away her memories. Even when her enemies stood right before her, she didn't recognize them.

It wasn't until her master suddenly told her to marry the Dragon Lord who had come to propose that she learned the truth: the handsome Dragon Lord, admired by countless celestial maidens, was the culprit behind the slaughter of her people. He was on the verge of becoming a demon, and the most powerful being in the Six Realms.

To avenge her people, she obeyed her master's orders and married the Dragon Lord, acting as a spy to help the Celestial Court eliminate a hidden threat. But instead of keeping his guard up around her, the Dragon Lord constantly took her side and protected her. He even saved her from an evil demon.

She was so angry she could hardly contain herself. He knew she was a spy and still acted like this. Was he looking down on her? Did he even know what being a spy meant? He was showing his spy no respect at all.

"Just because you saved me, you think I won't take revenge? I'll take you down with me if I have to!" she glared at him furiously.

He lowered his eyes calmly, concealing the tenderness in their corners. "I told you, I'm not your enemy."

(A friendly reminder:

1. One-on-one romance, both leads are each other's only partners, happy ending.

2. An original xianxia setting with many author-created details. Please don't nitpick. Thanks!)

My ongoing contemporary romance, Crimson Flame in the Heart, is also available. Feel free to visit my author page and add it to your collection!

Blurb:

**On the night Tong Ying broke up with her boyfriend, she accidentally stumbled upon a powerful CEO's secret. From then on, their paths kept crossing, tying them together in an inescapable "ill-fated relationship."

Fang Lingyuan, head of the top wealthy family in the Qiantan region, is handsome and fit. Most women can't help but be captivated by him.

But one day, he met an "exception" who couldn't care less about him: a female translator named Tong Ying.

He sneered. "I've seen plenty of people try to play hard to get."

Tong Ying was exasperated. "Has anyone ever told you how conceited you are?"

Fang Lingyuan had moved among countless women and never believed in love, but he never expected to lose his heart to this "exception."

One night, after drinking, he held her with his handsome face flushed and his eyes hazy. "Tong the Tease."

"Who are you talking about?" Tong Ying frowned.

"Tong Ying." He leaned closer, his warm lips brushing the corner of hers. "Your little mouth... is so sweet."

(A friendly reminder:

1. One-on-one romance, both leads are each other's only partners. The heroine is frank and spirited, and she'll fire back at anyone who crosses her. She doesn't hold back with the hero either.

2. The hero is sharp-tongued and conceited, and he's not a perfect character. Due to the influence of his family background, he has some prejudices against women early on and treats love and marriage like a game. His views gradually change after he meets the heroine. He has plenty of women around him and may seem like a playboy, so please proceed with caution if that's not your thing!)
