Captured by the Desert Tyrant (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 47
– Thud, tap.
With the crisp sound of leather shoes striking the floor, a beautiful woman with reddish-brown hair—Amira—quickly stepped in front of Hades and Latifa.
Amira had the healthy-looking skin of a desert dweller, her lovely auburn hair flowing beautifully down her back, and wore a splendid kaftan (a woman’s robe) embroidered with bright yellow and cream-colored flowers.
Her earrings, resembling falling droplets, and the circlet on her forehead set with pretty red gems, both gleamed brilliantly.
‘She’s quite pretty. What’s her relationship with General Hades?’
Though not delicate, Amira’s voice—thick with nasal inflection—echoed loudly around them.
“Lord Hades!”
Yet Hades didn’t even turn his head at the sound. Silently, he yanked Latifa sharply and tried to climb the stairs.
“Huh? General Hades?”
“Don’t pay attention—just keep walking.”
Latifa staggered from Hades’s rough pull, and Amira seized the opening to approach him.
“Lord Hades! This is the first time I’ve seen you since you returned from the Empire! You didn’t invite me to the Fraü appointment ceremony, so I couldn’t see your face—I, Amira, was terribly disappointed. But now that I see you again, you’re as dashing and noble as ever!”
She offered a slight bow and clung to the opposite arm of General Hades, gazing up at him with an awkward intensity.
Her face was certainly pretty enough that one might glance back twice if passing her on the street—but Hades truly didn’t even turn his head.
“Lord Hades possesses a cold charm unlike any other desert man—that’s what makes you exceptional.”

After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
