Tame or Be Captured (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 089
The next morning, Karaf took one of his important daily routines—a half-body bath—at the imperial palace.
Naked under the sunlight in the outdoor bath, he idly twirled the sun catcher Asha had gifted him, wearing a slightly conflicted expression.
Sunlight filtered through the sun catcher, shattering into beautiful, intricate patterns across his face.
He sighed, recalling the conversation he’d had with the Chief Steward a few days prior.
The Chief Steward had hesitated briefly before asking him,
“Your Majesty, now that Lady Banetsa has officially become Empress, wouldn’t it be appropriate for the two of you to share chambers?”
“…What?”
Karaf froze mid-motion and stared at him with slightly widened eyes.
The Chief Steward spoke awkwardly,
“Well… It’s rather unseemly for an old man like me to say this, but since you’ve already held the Blooming Ceremony, rumors are circulating among the nobles about you two sleeping in separate rooms.”
Karaf scoffed at that.
“Everyone seems terribly interested in other people’s beds.”
The Chief Steward’s own face flushed red.
“They’re probably just waiting for news of Your Majesty’s blooming.”
Though too embarrassed to continue speaking himself, the Chief Steward quietly sighed once he’d turned away.
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.”

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.
