Picked Up a Beast, Turns Out He's an Emperor (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 137
In an instant, Duchess Lecain was surrounded by imperial guards.
“How dare you do this? Drawing your swords against me, who holds the regency! It is not I who commits treason—it is you!”
The duchess’s sharp voice echoed throughout the office.
Her eyes wide open, she pointed directly at Deputy Commander Peter with her finger.
“What are you waiting for? Protect the imperial authority at once and arrest that man! Those who defy my orders will be dealt with severely!”
The duchess’s fierce threat dissipated uselessly into the air.
The guards who had taken control of the office neither arrested Sir Peter, who stood facing the duchess, nor lowered their swords toward her.
“Do you truly believe His Majesty will let you go unpunished when he returns? You’ll not end up in prison—you’ll have your heads chopped off and displayed atop the stone tower!”
Just moments ago, her lips had curled in a sly smile while plotting rebellion, yet now she invoked the Emperor’s name.
The ends of Sir Peter’s neatly trimmed mustache lifted upward.
Though his mouth held a gentle smile, his hawk-like eyes pierced straight into Duchess Lecain.
With a single nod of his head, the soldiers standing in the front row advanced toward the duchess.
She shuffled backward step by step until her back hit the wall, trapping her helplessly between the soldiers and the cold stone.
“I’ll spare your dignity—come along quietly.”
The duchess glared murderously at Sir Peter for omitting the honorifics due to a member of the imperial family.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
