The Wolf Howls at the Moon

At first, he's domineering; later, he's a devoted puppy. A handsome, brave Wolf King × a clever, resilient noblewoman (abduction and mutual healing)

Yi Mingyue, the legitimate daughter of a Grand Tutor, is framed by her stepmother and stepsister and kidnapped by bandits into a remote forest.

Howls rise all around her. A swift black shadow rushes out of the depths of the woods and rescues her unconscious body from the bandits.

When Mingyue wakes, she finds that she has escaped the bandits but fallen into a wolf's den. A man stands before the pack.

He is tall and powerfully built, exceptionally handsome, dressed in animal skins and surrounded by a mysterious, untamed aura.

Mingyue looks at him in terror. "Who are you? Where am I?"

The man fixes her with a wolfish stare. "I am the Wolf King, and from this day on, you will be my queen."

Mingyue refuses to spend the rest of her life trapped in a wolf's den.

She is always plotting to escape the Wolf King's clutches. Though this fearsome king looks human, he was raised among wolves from infancy.

A wolf has only one mate in its lifetime, and he has chosen her.

After her countless escape attempts fail, the Wolf King corners her and holds her fast.

"You're my woman. You are not allowed to run!"

Mingyue won't be swayed by threats or entreaties. "I want to go home!"

The Wolf King gently pulls her into his arms despite her protests. "You are my queen. Wherever the pack is, that is your home!"

Unwilling to accept this fate, Mingyue gazes into his tender eyes and comes up with a plan.

From then on, she stops trying to escape and instead uses herself as bait, taming this vicious wolf bit by bit...

Several months later.

Yi Mingyue: "I want to go home."

The Wolf King bends down, like a tamed beast crouching at the hem of her skirt. He gazes up at her with pleading eyes, clutching her pinky finger.

"Take me with you... Wherever you are, that's my home."

[Bonus Scene]

Rumors spread through the capital that a mysterious man had arrived at the Grand Tutor's residence. He was extraordinarily handsome, dressed in animal skins, and his eyes were as cold as the Wolf Star in the night sky. He was ruthless and murderous toward everyone else, but obeyed the legitimate daughter of the Yi family in everything. Her father had never cared for her, and she had suffered under her stepmother and stepsister.

One day, the Wolf King showed no mercy as he threw the stepmother and stepsister who had hired men to harm Mingyue into a lake. His gaze was as vicious as a wolf's, but when he turned to Mingyue, his eyes softened like water.

Mingyue crooked a finger. "Little wolf, come into my arms~"

Upcoming novel: Transmigrated as a Sickly Princess, I Get Bound to a Divorce System

Blurb:

A frail body with a goofy soul: a little princess and overworked System employee × A cold-faced, battle-hardened yet bashful childhood friend: a general with a vivid imagination

(Chasing-his-wife-to-the-crematorium + System love-triangle chaos, ancient war god × modern goofball)

1. After working late into the night, young nurse Li Wushuang dies suddenly and transmigrates as Pei Jinqing, the little princess doted on by the old emperor.

That's right! The very princess who stood just below the emperor and above everyone else, and nearly forced the crown prince to his death before becoming crown princess herself.

The bad news is that the princess was born frail and often ill. Before she turned twenty, she'd already visited the King of Hell three times.

As Li Wushuang frets over how to turn things around and save herself, a line of text appears overhead.

[Ding! Host has been automatically bound to the divorce System. Initial life points: 2. Each completed divorce mission adds 1 life point. You must earn 10 points to be reborn.]

Li Wushuang: What kind of lousy System is this? She's never even held a man's hand, and it expects her to marry and divorce eight times?

To keep his precious daughter alive, the old emperor spends every day finding suitable husbands for her.

First husband: The accomplished son of the prime minister. A gentleman in public, but a creep who lays low in private. On their wedding night, he actually drugs the princess with a powerful aphrodisiac!

Li Wushuang: Get lost, you creep! Divorce!

[Ding! Host has completed the first divorce mission. Life points increased by 1. Beginner's package reward: "Scumbag-Spotting Eyes" skill.]

Second husband: The newly crowned top scholar. The old emperor thinks: A poor family has produced a fine son. Surely I got it right this time.

Li Wushuang's new skill immediately reveals that the new top scholar is a gold-digging opportunist.

Before marriage: "Your Highness, whatever you ask me to do, I will do. I would gladly give my life for you."

First year of marriage: "I have a younger brother who runs a pork business back in our village. Since he's practically a member of the imperial family, could Your Highness grant him a respectable official position?"

Second year of marriage: "I have a younger sister. Our family was poor, so we sold her to a local tyrant in the village. His second, third, and fourth wives are forcing my sister to her death. Since she's your sister-in-law, could Your Highness redeem her?"

Third year of marriage: "I have a..."

Li Wushuang kicks him away. "Am I here to do things for you, or are you here to do things for me? Did I owe your whole family something in my past life? Get lost, all of you! Divorce!"

[Ding! Host has completed another divorce mission. Life points increased by 1. Reward: birth control skill. Enjoy your married life to the fullest.]

Third husband: The third son of the Xie family, a distinguished military clan, and the childhood friend and general who has secretly loved Pei Jinqing.

Li Wushuang: This husband looks easy on the eyes. No, he's incredibly easy on the eyes! I love him! His tall frame, his broad chest, those sleek, defined muscles. He's the man of my dreams! I want to spend my whole life with him!

Just then, the System above her head lets out a shrill alarm...

[Beep beep beep! Divorce mission overdue. All Host skills revoked. Life points decreased by 1! Complete the mission immediately, or you will not be reborn into the real world!]

Li Wushuang bursts into tears. What kind of lousy System is this? Do I really have to divorce him this time?

2. Xie Heng, the third legitimate son of the Xie military family, became a close attendant to the emperor at a young age. Cold, resolute, and renowned, he is one day granted an imperial marriage to the emperor's beloved daughter, a princess who has already divorced two husbands.

The two had been childhood friends, and Xie Heng had long since fallen for her. He gladly accepts, even when others call him a fool for taking up someone else's cast-off shoes. His devotion to the princess never wavers.

Red candles burn bright, and the phoenix-patterned curtains hang low. The princess, who had always deliberately kept her distance, now reaches out to unfasten his jade belt. After their wedding, they are loving and sweet together, especially in bed!

Xie Heng: Could she be so good at this because she's been married before?

A year into their marriage, the princess suddenly contracts a terrible illness and is on the brink of death. A voice from beyond the heavens declares: [Attention, Host! Your mission is severely overdue! Divorce him immediately, or your rebirth will fail and you will be condemned to reincarnate as an animal!]

Hearing this, the princess jolts upright from her deathbed and flings divorce papers in his face.

"Your Highness and I are devoted to each other. Why do you want a divorce?"

"Are you divorcing me or not?"

"I refuse!"

"Fine! Then I'll divorce you!"

Heartbroken after being cast aside, Xie Heng receives the emperor's order to lead troops to the frontier less than a month after the divorce.

As he rides out through the pass, the princess races up on horseback with her glitching System and blocks his way. Her hairpin is loose, and the System screen before her eyes flickers like snow.

[Critical bug! Host's life points unstable... Bzzzt... Emotional module overloaded! Host's life points not detected... Bzzzt...]

She shouts at the rigid figure in black armor on horseback: "Xie San! Don't go! I love you!!"

Xie Heng: Hm? Who? Who do you love? And who's Xie San?
