Rather Than Be Taken, I Will Take (12 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 89
Aden couldn’t possibly fail to understand what I meant, even without me spelling it out.
Benjamin hoped Aden would grasp his words.
“Lend me your horse. I can’t take mine—it’s tied up at the imperial palace.”
“Aden.”
“Also, prepare some food and water for me. Three days’ worth should be enough.”
…What a fool I was to expect anything else. Benjamin sighed, resting a hand on his hip. So this is how it was always going to end.
Brushing back his loose hair, Benjamin stared listlessly at Aden lounging on the sofa, then let out a laugh that bordered on madness.
“I might as well quit as deputy minister and find another position somewhere.”
Recalling the day he first met Ludmila in the Black Barrier and his conversation with Aden on the plateau, Benjamin gave a lopsided smirk.
“See? It turned out exactly as I said it would.”
At this point, he wished his old friend—and leader—would finally understand that listening to him was the right choice.
To throw away clan and kin alike, blinded by infatuation with a woman—what utter foolishness.
It was so absurd, yet Benjamin found himself understanding all too well, which only made him feel more hollow.
Benjamin no longer knew how far things might spiral.
He could only hope that Aden’s flight with Ludmila was nothing more than a reckless, impulsive act with no real plan behind it.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
