Tame or Be Captured (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 087
Nia soon spoke with a serious expression.
“…Lady Banetsa, I will surely repay your kindness today.”
“Good. I’m the sort of person who enjoys goodwill, so I won’t refuse. Though I do detest mean-spirited pranks or being ostracized.”
Asha said this, straightened her back, and turned her gaze toward the noble young ladies.
Upon meeting her eyes, each of them visibly flinched and quickly looked away.
Asha gave them a gentle smile and said,
“Everyone, while I was fighting, I thought it over carefully—and I’ve decided I probably don’t need a handmaiden after all. Since I must care for His Majesty, having more handmaidens to look after would just tire me out.”
Asha finished speaking, stylishly slung her bow over her shoulder, and strode off confidently.
The noble young ladies, who had been staring blankly at her retreating figure, only now felt waves of embarrassment wash over them and awkwardly coughed, avoiding each other’s eyes.
Unlike Asha, they had pushed and shoved one another in their frantic scramble to escape the moment danger arrived, as if they’d never been on the same side.
Just then—
“…Banetsa!”
A loud shout echoed from afar, accompanied by a sudden, rich scent of roses.
Asha’s eyes widened as she watched a man rush toward her like a madman, drawing his sword.
He had heard rumors of an unknown monster appearing at the tea party and immediately brought the entire Cactus Knights with him, racing here as fast as he could.
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.
Intro
As an enchantress, Su Heng possesses captivating eyes and charming beauty, easily manipulating the joys and sorrows of living beings at her fingertips.
But to enchant a god, making him taste the bitterness of love’s separation, long-lasting resentment, unattainable desires, and inability to let go…
Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.
The once gentle and polite youth has transformed into someone she no longer recognizes.

What terrible phrasing. ‘He couldn’t possibly take her…’ She is the empress of the empire, Jackel needs to get with the program. She has shown herself to be stronger and more resilient than anyone else in this novel.
I’m getting the impression that the title of empress doesn’t count for as much as one might think in this empire.
