Lady Devil - Chapter 64
#64
“…..”
I did not respond further. My chest felt heavy as if a pile of stones had been placed on it, and I no longer wanted to continue the conversation. Since I couldn’t continue eating anyway, I gathered my skirt in the center to ask for my husband’s permission. Meanwhile, I consistently ignored Henrik’s gaze as he stared at me intently.
I adjusted my clothes and pushed my chair back. When I hastily stood up, my intoxicated feet slipped, and I plopped back down. And then.
Screech.
“I still remember the day I first met you in Gustavus.”
Henrik grabbed the leg of my chair and pulled it closer to him.
“A rare innocent and beautiful widow. Standing precariously in the middle of that dark and vast hall, with visibly trembling eyelashes that were pitiful at first glance.”
My neck stiffened without me realizing it. It was because Henrik had placed his hand on my thigh. Sparks seemed to fly before my eyes. I couldn’t even bring myself to look at that hand.
“You have a talent for melting men’s hearts. Like a lily in the darkness. Perhaps it’s a skill you honed while locked away in a tower, or better yet, if it’s your innate nature.”
“You, you’re just like your father, spouting nonsense that doesn’t even qualify as poetry… I wasn’t trembling because I was afraid of you.”
However, my voice came out trembling. Henrik laughed silently.
“…All talk and no action.”
Heat.
The heat of his hand slowly gripping the soft flesh deep in the upper part of my thigh, as if burrowing between my legs, could be felt even through the thick fabric. I froze in place, paradoxically, because of that warmth.
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.”
