Divine Lord, Call Me Your Wife

Character dynamic: Tsundere, dignified god x resilient, stubborn mortal woman

[Blurb:]

"Yan Yi, stop..."

Yan Yi looks at the person trembling beneath her, trapped under her body. Once he was her master. Now he is her husband.

Her gaze is undisguisedly possessive as she bends down and whispers, "My lord, call me Your Ladyship."

Chu Junlan buries his face in the bedding, willing to endure every humiliation, driven to ecstasy and despair by her touch.

He no longer looks into Yan Yi's eyes. The hatred and resentment in them are more than he can bear.

**

To Yan Yi, the God Lord on Mount Kunlun is like a bright moon: pure and untarnished, lofty and beyond reach, not to be defiled.

To fit in at the divine palace, she, once called a "viper" by the outside world, pulls out her own fangs and restrains her vicious nature, trying to become a proper immortal attendant.

Hundreds of years of effort earn her only one remark: "Keep her around. She's useful, that's all."

Yan Yi's heart sinks. No matter how hard she tries, the lofty divine palace has never truly accepted someone like her, a woman from the lowest ranks.

Her mortal origins are a sin in this exalted palace.

A mortal and a god were never meant to be.

Seeing the truth at last, Yan Yi breaks free of her obsession and fakes her death to leave.

**

Everyone says the god of Kunlun is cold and aloof, with an air of noble dignity.

Yet this figure, so untouched by worldly affairs, vanishes after an ordinary immortal attendant disappears.

Chu Junlan searches for Yan Yi for three hundred years, but an accident causes the Heavenly Dao to seal his divine powers. Reduced to a sickly mortal body, he is sent off in a bridal sedan. When his veil is lifted, he freezes.

The person he has searched for day and night has become his wife...

After hundreds of years apart, she looks at him with nothing but distance and malice.

She leans over him, pinning him down. Her breath falls against his ear. "If the God Lord wants my protection, that can be arranged. You can pay with your body. How does that sound?"

It isn't a question she means to negotiate. He has no way to refuse.

**

At first, he resists her abuse with anger. Then he silently endures it, and eventually accepts it helplessly.

He remembers the stubborn girl from long ago, whose eyes would light up at the mere mention of him.

If enduring this humiliation can bring back the affection she once lost for him, then... he is willing to bear it.

[The groveling ex arc, an aloof beauty bending for love, 1v1, happy ending, both leads' first time]

1. There is a stretch of matriarchal-society content. Its length depends on the story.

2. This is a personal indulgence, written for myself. It may not be a typical groveling-ex story.

3. The male lead only shows his shy, frail side after entering the matriarchal world. He has only ever loved the female lead, and has done many things for her, but he is bad at expressing himself and has never told her.

"GB After Transmigrating into an Explicit Boys' Love Novel"

A cold-faced, sarcastic heroine who only wants to survive x a cool, aloof hero who pretends to seduce her in a desperate bid to change his fate

Chen Yin transmigrates into a minor character in an explicit novel she'd only skimmed. She tries to kill the male lead, but he's rescued at the last moment by Attacker 1, Yu Qing'an. Then she is killed.

Chen Yin doesn't want to die.

Facing the male lead, Chen Yin suppresses the murderous urge imposed on her by the plot and barely saves her own life. She figures she only needs to wait safely until Yu Qing'an comes to take him away, and then her death sentence will be lifted.

But one day passes, then two... and many more, yet Yu Qing'an doesn't show up.

Meanwhile, her seemingly helpless husband is either covered in blood after a rampaging monster slams into him, or suddenly collapses for no reason, hovering at death's door.

Every time it happens, she gets a terrifying premonition that she's about to die.

She can't help wondering:

...Is this story's plot really that single-minded?

And can someone explain why, every time Qin Yushu comes close to death, his gaze grows more intense and he acts even more... affected in front of her?

It seems like he's... trying to seduce her...

That can't be right... Isn't he into men?

In just three years,

a dazzling genius becomes a disgraced prisoner, then a useless cultivator.

When Qin Yushu became a prisoner, he had a nightmare. The worst part was that it kept coming true, step by step.

In the dream, the Ghost King was supposed to kill him. But when he saw the person before him stiffly lower the hand squeezing his throat, he felt hope for the first time.

Being the Ghost King's consort or a man's plaything? Qin Yushu decisively chooses the former.

To stay as a consort, he has to win the Ghost King's affection. The ghost clan knows nothing of love. She doesn't kill him, but she never gives him a second glance, either.

To escape the fate he saw in his dream, this usually cool and self-controlled man decides to seduce her, win her over, and make her his.

Theme: Love needs to be expressed bravely.
