I Pretended To Be Dead And Ran Away (22 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 30
Reniel froze completely the moment she heard those words.
She had assumed that, at worst, it would be something minor—like absentmindedly tugging his hair in her sleep (though truthfully, she occasionally felt the urge to yank it out and leave him bald).
But indecent assault?!
That someone as lowly as a mere deputy steward like herself…
Had dared commit such an outrageous act against someone whose whim could end her life at any moment—she simply couldn’t believe it.
The Felix before her eyes didn’t seem like the type to lie.

She looked back at Felix again, trying to gauge the mood.

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.

Poor Reniel, Felix’s teasing antics never failed to flustered and made her scared for her life. Meanwhile Felix found her fear as a delicious delicacy, the madman.
