[An innocent, loyal, fierce dragon seme]
1.
When Xin Ying caught her fiance calling another woman "honey" behind her back, she completely broke down. She had spent more than twenty years being raised to fit the mold of a good wife and mother, and had never suffered such humiliation.
Fine, fine. So being a man is that great, is it?
She went to bars to drink with a bunch of young men, stared fixedly at handsome guys by the seaside, and flirted with her male subordinates at the office... Good heavens! Living like a man was so much fun!
So she took a plate of meat and coaxed the dragon she'd picked up into coming home with her. "If you want something to eat, live at my place and be my wife."
The dragon shook her head. "What's a wife?"
Xin Ying thought back to how she used to be. "It means you dress up beautifully every day and behave yourself."

Vilien could eat a lot, and as a result, she was larger than many male dragons her age. Having grown up among boys, she was an excellent fighter and was honored with the task of guarding the treasure.
But who would let a female take on such an important duty? In the tower, she heard the snide remarks day and night.
They called her ugly and inelegant, and said she ate like a messy male.
During a battle, Vilien fell into a deep ravine, and her massive body crashed through a doorway between worlds.
A tiny female tried hard to drag her into her nest, saying something about a "wife" over and over. Vilien couldn't understand a word.
But the meat in her hands smelled delicious.

The dragon was hopeless at all of it. She tried to cook some food, but set the kitchen on fire. She tried to clean the floor, but soaked the wooden furniture. She tried to do the laundry, but pulled so hard that she tore the poor fabric to shreds.
The cost of repairing the house nearly drove Xin Ying to bankruptcy. "I'll teach you!"
Watching Xin Ying expertly do the housework, Vilien suddenly understood.
"So you're the real wife!"
"You're amazing. I want to learn from you, wife!"
Xin Ying blushed and turned away. "Mind your place!"

To the dragon, Xin Ying was the perfect female.
She ate so little, her figure was so slender, her scales were smooth and tender, and she kept the nest clean and fragrant. When Xin Ying was taken for a little flight through the sky, she was so frightened she kept screaming. Her voice was like tiny claws scratching at Vilien's heart.
She wanted to stay with this female forever.
By the time Xin Ying realized something was wrong with Vilien, it seemed too late.
Dragon scales fallen in the bedding, loose threads scattered across the pillow, and soporific dragon blood mixed into the soup... When Xin Ying confronted the dragon with a pile of evidence, the other woman looked pitiful and placed her tail in Xin Ying's hands.
"I know what 'wife' means now."
"Please let me be your wife!"
