[The author's page has completed stories and upcoming works in all sorts of flavors. Feel free to take a look, everyone (bows.jpg)] [It's not easy writing for niche kinks, so thank you all for supporting the official version] GB, puppy-boy literature, also known as #PutOnADifferentSecretIdentityAndForceYourLoyalDogToSubmit# Blurb: When Tao Jin transmigrated into the body of the Qingzhou Commandery Princess, a delicate, sickly girl who had grown up in the lap of luxury, she laughed herself awake in the middle of the night. At long last, this incredible fortune had finally fallen to her! Apart from being fated to die young, she was very satisfied with this life. After all, no life can be perfect. While the capital descended into chaos, she slept. While it burned, she listened to music. Her one priority was enjoying life. When the capital changed hands... she was in love. Tao Jin crooked a finger, and a man in black, with a narrow waist and long legs, appeared like a ghost. He restrained the murderous aura around him and knelt before her, eyes lowered. "Miss, your subordinate is here." Life was dull, but loyal dogs made it better. Huai Qi was the shadow guard she had personally chosen, and also her most faithful dog. Having been a loyal-dog enthusiast in her previous life, Tao Jin could say the experience was excellent! He was obedient, considerate, and vigorous, and could satisfy all her wicked kinks. He was practically a boyfriend who could do it all. But on the day she died, the usually taciturn and obedient man stood guard with his sword, and not a single person in the Princess's residence could get near her corpse. Tao Jin's spirit floated in a corner and watched in amazement. She'd never noticed before, but her loyal dog was actually a lunatic in private. She watched Huai Qi have the tendons in his hands severed and get thrown into the torture chamber. On the seventh day after her death, he crawled to her grave, leaning on a broken sword. Before she could figure out whether the liquid on his face was blood or tears, she lost consciousness. Rumor had it that the Grand Princess of the capital was stunningly beautiful and ruthlessly cunning, a venomous beauty no one dared touch. Even so, her bedchamber never lacked for guests, and the handsome men she kept all had their own unique charms. One day, the Grand Princess suddenly changed her tastes. She had someone dig up a man from a backwater village in Qingzhou. He was not only rather old, but had also lost all his martial arts. Apart from his face, he had no redeeming qualities. As night fell, Tao Jin sat in her seat of honor and looked at the man, who had been forced to drink a muscle-relaxing drug and tied up with red cord. He frowned with his eyes closed, yet could not suppress the effects of the drug. Tao Jin admitted that the scene of abducting a man by force thrilled her. He was hers anyway, so why not play along? She lifted his chin with a fingertip and smiled. "You're Huai Qi, right? I've had my eye on you for a long time. Cry for me." The man abruptly opened his eyes. His gaze held a cold hatred she had never seen before, and he rasped at her to get lost. Tao Jin immediately grinned. Well, now that's exciting. A little scene: Everyone at court knew that the General Who Aids the State was the Grand Princess's bedmate. He'd earned his current position by seducing her in bed, and, relying on her favor, he didn't even take the emperor seriously. The Grand Princess was fickle, and the officials all waited for the day the general would fall from grace. But they waited and waited, until they retired to their hometowns, and the general was still her favorite. Just what kind of bewitching potion had the general given the Grand Princess?! In the wavering candlelight, the stern-faced general of the day knelt beside the Grand Princess's bed. He remembered seeing the Second Young Master of the Chancellor's household feed her grapes earlier. Huai Qi drew the red curtains, met the woman's amused gaze, untied his sash, and bared his strong chest. His clumsy attempt at flattery: "The young masters of the capital are delicate. Your subordinate can endure more pain." [Important content warnings] 1. GB, male suffering, unequal status, unequal relationship, and a five-year gap between the timelines after the rebirth. 2. After she changes her secret identity, there are many scenes where she threatens the male lead into submission. Not suitable for fans of the male lead or pure romance. 3. This is a kink-focused story, not a power fantasy about a female protagonist. The heroine does not become emperor either. 4. For similar fare, see the author's Picked Up a Loyal Shadow Guard GB. There are also upcoming works featuring this kind of male suffering and puppy-boy GB. Look forward to them if you're interested. Weibo: @Jinjiang You Fengnian ------ Upcoming Work ------ The Previous Generation's Blade GB Blurb: The day the Liao Family Manor fell, only two figures, one large and one small, emerged from the sea of fire. A man in black held the child tightly as he fled with Liao Yu, the manor lord's only young daughter. To protect his young mistress, Renyi sent her to be raised by an old friend of the manor lord. For ten years, the young lady grew up carefree, while he moved through the night, cutting down his former master's enemies. Once all had returned to peace, Renyi sheathed his blade. He would remain incognito and follow behind the young lady, fulfilling the final wishes of the manor lord and his wife. He would watch over her as she grew up, married, and had children, then watch over the next generation as well. As for the young lady's teasing remarks, he would simply pretend not to hear them. Everything went smoothly, except that on the eve of the young lady's wedding, he opened his eyes to find himself naked on the bridal bed, surrounded by a crowd. * After transmigrating, Liao Yu had one calamity after another. As soon as she came of age, her adoptive parents arranged her marriage, eager for her to wed. The problem was that she didn't like the man she'd been betrothed to since childhood. The one who interested her was the shadow guard who came to visit her every year. Whenever he came back, he taught her martial arts and gave her money. He was like a father and an older brother in personality, and had a model's physique. He was her ideal boyfriend. The only problem was that he seemed a little deaf. Every time she said she wanted to date him, he pretended not to hear. On the eve of her wedding, she drank a cup of wine laced with drugs. Liao Yu looked at the man before her, the shadow guard who had carried her out of the fire ten years ago. Now he was bound to the bed, struggling in pain as he shook his head and begged her not to do this. When the scandal came to light, Renyi was bound and thrown into the torture chamber. Out of consideration for their past, they ultimately spared his life. The day Renyi was released from the torture chamber, Liao Yu watched as thousands pointed at him and cursed him as a beast who had ruined her reputation and future. Before Renyi could take his own life, she found the man in black, soaked in blood. She stroked his despairing brows and said with a beaming smile: "Have you forgotten what you promised my parents?" He wasn't allowed to die. He had to stay by her side for the rest of his life. [The sharpest blade of the previous generation is now her dog.] Theme: Strive for a better tomorrow
