“And you might also wish to stay in your room after dark,” he continued, his voice low. The king’s knee was wedged in between Acacia’s thighs, preventing them from shutting. However, he also didn’t position himself too closely to her. It was just there, reminding her that she was trapped. His face was so close, hovering mere inches away from her. If either Acacia or the king leaned forward, their lips would’ve ended up touching. If it stopped at mere lips touching, though, Acacia couldn’t be sure. “Monsters roam these corridors.” *** Acacia’s life is turned upside down when her lover suddenly abandons her in favor of a nobleman’s daughter. Unfortunately for Acacia, all single women at the age of 18 will be sent into the royal palace for the selection so as to join the king’s harem. Across the years, many women have been added as the king’s concubine. Half of them have died in the palace due to schemes and treachery and Acacia, who has been selected, will soon be next if she doesn’t find a way to escape. After all, rumors have spread far and wide that their king is a monster. Acacia’s town is one of the many human settlements ruled by the werewolves. Their king, King Tiberius Kilorn, is also known as the most fearsome one in battle― the Wolf of the North. So, when Acacia has caught the eye of King Tiberius, she naturally wishes to find a way out of the palace so as to ensure her own survival. For all the riches and comforts the palace can provide, Acacia is unwilling to sacrifice her life for a man she doesn’t love. However, what happens when Acacia finds out that Tiberius isn’t at all the monster others say that he is? And what will happen if, despite how ruthless and cruel he portrays himself, Acacia realizes that even so-called monsters like the king are capable of compassion? Capable of love? Will Acacia still wish to escape then? *** “And for what reasons were you sent here by your lover?” the king asked, making a completely wild guess. “Fame? Riches? Women?” Acacia’s eyes immediately shot up from the sheets to meet the king’s eyes. She hadn’t faced him head-on the entire time he was in her room but now that her wound had been torn open, her grief outweighed her fear. “Phineas didn’t―” She was immediately shushed when a hand pressed her two cheeks together firmly, disabling her from saying more than a few muffled and indistinguishable words. “And who said you’re allowed to utter another man’s name in front of me, your husband, your king?” He sneered. “Maybe you need to be taught a lesson to remember who exactly it is you belong to.” --- Image used in cover not mine.

Su Liang was the Bai family’s maid. As she was similar to the young lady, Bai Qing, in appearance, she was often used as a substitute. Bai Qing threatened Su Liang, saying that she would cure Su Liang’s mother if Su Liang agreed to take her place. That night, Bai Qing pushed Su Liang into a dark room. Su Liang heard the heavy pants of a man that sounded like a trapped beast. She was pressed down underneath the muscular man’s bare torso, and her legs helplessly wrapped around his waist. Like a wildflower swaying in a thunderstorm, she let the man ravage her. After the deed was done, Bai Qing gave her a debit card. “You better keep quiet about what happened tonight. If anyone finds out what happened, I’ll kill you.” So it seems that Bai Qing had always wanted to get close to Gu Han. But she wasn’t a virgin, and Gu Han was a germophobe, so Bai Qing was worried that Gu Han would scorn her tainted body. Hence, she was forced to have Su Liang sleep with him in her place. After Su Liang left, Bai Qing crept into Gu Han’s bed, pretending to be the woman whose virginity had just been taken by him. Su Liang didn’t care for any of this. She just wanted the money to save her mother’s life. The next day, news of the Bai family’s young lady, Bai Qing, sleeping with their city’s number one aristocrat, Gu Han, spread around Sea City. Socialites of the city were made with envy. But no one knew that after returning to Bai Manor, the real female lead had removed her expensive clothing, put on a mask, and transformed into a lowly maid. Everyone knew that Young Master Gu started doting on Miss Bai after that night. But one month later, someone saw Young Master Gu hugging a maid, and being intimate with her. Everyone waited for the Bai family to clear up this rumor. Yet, the Gu family made an announcement instead. Gu Han announced, “There is only one Mrs. Gu, and she is this person beside me!” Having said that, he looked at the woman dressed up as a maid. “Mrs. Gu, how long do you plan on pretending?”Vampires and werewolves have been at war for centuries. In an attempt to make peace, Alessandra, the vampire princess, is wed to the Alpha Emperor of the werewolves, Xavier.

When a cult started by an ancient vampire attempts to sow discord between two kingdoms, can Alessandra and Xavier maintain peace between both races? Or will their kingdoms fall into war and ruin, dragging their budding love down with it? — [Excerpt] When the guards declared the groom's entrance, everyone's attention turned to the door. I felt a hammer on my chest. Here comes the barbarian, I thought. I was looking away, lowering my gaze. The man entered the wedding hall. I felt like my intestine would come out of my mouth. The sudden gulps of the guests were not going unnoticed in my ears. What caused the guests to respond like that? Was the man that hideous? I lost my zeal to look at him. With a heavy heart, I kept looking away until he stood in front of me. Slowly, I glanced at the man standing in front of me. My heart was pounding so hard that I felt like it would burst. I gasped. There was no way he was the alpha lord and the groom of tonight's wedding. The phenomenally handsome man from earlier was standing right in front of me. Up close, he was multiple times more attractive. Barbaric man? Who? He was radiating such royal energy that even the noblest vampires were intimidated when he entered. My husband-to-be.
