After Becoming the Object of a Twisted Obsessive's Desire

Chu Yun was the legitimate daughter of a duke's household, charming and radiant, and had been doted on since childhood.

But after her mother died, her once-loving father revealed his true nature as a toady who fawned on the powerful. For the sake of securing a position for his illegitimate son, he ignored her desperate pleas and offered her as a second wife to the lecherous Old Prince Rui.

The night before she was to be sent to Prince Rui's residence, Chu Yun escaped the city from the duke's estate.

She gazed at the surging river beside her mother's grave, wiped her reddened eyes, bit down on her vermilion lips, and closed her tearful eyes, ready to leap.

Suddenly, an arm reached out from behind and clamped tightly around her waist, pulling her against a hard, scorching chest.

A man's voice, lazy with amusement, sounded beside her ear:

"Where do you think you're running, my... little stepmother?"

-

Everyone said Prince Rui's residence was a den of demons.

Besides the Old Prince Rui, a lecherous drunkard, there was also the heir, a man who struck fear into everyone's heart.

Zhou Tang was cruel, sinister, and unfathomable, with none of the emotions or feelings of a normal person.

Anyone connected to him met a terrible end.

The delicate young lady from the duke's household was sure to be bullied until not even her bones remained once she married into the family.

Yet one day, the bloodthirsty heir to Prince Rui's title led a massacre through the imperial palace. He personally escorted his "little stepmother" past the many people who had once mocked her and seated her on a throne cast from gold.

The Imperial Guard stood with drawn swords. The man forced those people to kneel before her, then knelt at her feet himself, his gaze feverish as he kissed the top of her embroidered shoe.

"Mother, I told you I'd make everyone kneel at your feet, including... me."

[Extra Scene]

In a room at Prince Rui's residence, the man's arm was draped around a pair of slender, pale legs.

Zhou Tang bit the back of Chu Yun's neck and looked at the young woman in the mirror, biting her lip and trying to endure. A sickly flush crept into the corners of his eyes.

"They say I'm bullying you, Mother. Be good and tell me, am I bullying you? Hmm?"

As if to threaten her, Zhou Tang pushed a bead inside her. When she trembled and shivered, his smile grew more delighted. He drawled as he moved his fingers:

"Say it."
