Men of the Harem (137 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 397
Calain stared blankly at Anya Domis before repeating her question.
“That woman?”
Anya Domis replied coldly.
“The human woman you chose over me. Don’t pretend you don’t know who I mean.”
He glanced at the closed window behind Anya Domis. How long had she been here? Had she been sneaking in and waiting this whole time?
Then again, since she had taken over Domis’s body, slipping into the room unnoticed would be easy enough.
At that thought, Calain felt a bitter surge of anger rising in his chest. You’re not Domis! The words practically clawed up his throat.
But he swallowed them back. Denying that she was Domis while still staying by another woman’s side might make Anya Domis suspicious.
She might wonder, ‘Is it not that your heart changed, but that you’re staying near her because she’s Lord?’
Unawakened, La Til couldn’t stand against Anya Domis. To protect La Til—from people and especially from Anya Domis—he had to keep La Til’s identity as Lord a secret.
The moment that thought settled, Calain deliberately spoke with chilly indifference.
“I’d prefer it if you didn’t mock me. Five hundred years is more than enough time for hearts to change.”
At Calain’s words, Anya Domis narrowed her eyes sharply.
“True. Five hundred years—more than enough time for a heart to change.”
“Exactly.”

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.”
