I Held the Leash of a Blind Beast (1 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 55
“You’re awfully good at daydreaming right in front of me.”
Elicia hid her guilt and cupped Illeon’s cheek with the hand that had been propping up her chin.
The man who’d thrust his handsome face toward her with narrowed, disgruntled eyes slowly lifted the corners of his mouth, his expression softening like melting butter. Watching it happen so close at hand made her wonder if her hand held some hidden power to bring him joy.
No, that wasn’t it. It was simply because he liked her so much. That’s why.
Realizing it anew made her heart flutter for no good reason.
“What could I possibly be thinking about?”
When Elicia, inexplicably cheerful, asked him, Illeon answered her question with another, not bothering to hide his excitement.
“If I guess right, will you give me a prize?”
“I don’t have anything worthy enough to give as a prize. I’ve already given you everything I have.”
“How strange. Now that you mention it, I feel like I’ve only received your words—not the real thing yet.”
In that brief moment, Illeon had already finished preparing dinner with the barbecue ingredients the butler had brought. Elicia sat comfortably a short distance away, watching him work.
Illeon tied an apron around his waist and, with practiced ease, placed a large chunk of meat onto the grill.
Sssss.
He seared one side in an instant and flipped the meat skillfully, prompting Elicia to clap like a seal without even realizing it.
“Wow! That’s amazing!”
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
Trigger warning: All men in this novel are yandere style.
