President Yan’s Road To Chasing Her Wife Is Not Long

Baenz
At the age of twenty-seven, Yan Hanxie began eating vegetarian food, chanting scriptures, and wearing Buddhist prayer beads. Rumors spread throughout the company that the female CEO had taken refuge in Buddhism. Only Zong Yi knew— Last night, when this “devout” believer forced whisky down her throat in a bar. How heavy the pressure of the Buddhist beads on her wrist had been as they pressed against the back of Zong Yi’s neck. “Director Zong,” Yan Hanxie rubbed her alcohol-scented lips against the tip of her ear, “tell me… would it be alright if I broke a precept tonight?” Zong Yi expressionlessly pulled out the hem of her shirt that had been pinned down. “President Yan, this is already the tenth time you’ve ‘broken a precept’ this month.” “And besides,” she lifted her eyes to the sandalwood beads swaying on the other woman’s wrist, “does the Buddha know you use consecrated ritual objects to tie people’s wrists?” — Disclaimer: All rights to the original content belong to their respective creators Original Name:晏总的追妻之路不漫长 Author: 叶灵秋月

TEMPTED BY THE DEVIL'S TOUCH

I married a monster to save my sister. Now he won't let me go. I have forty-eight hours to find $750,000, or my sixteen-year-old sister becomes collateral damage for our father's gambling debts. I'm a pediatric nurse with $340 in my bank account and zero options—until a man in a tailored suit finds me at midnight and makes an offer that sounds completely insane: Marry his employer. Ask no questions. Obey without hesitation. In exchange? Every debt erased. My family protected. Forever. I sign the contract without reading it. I don't meet my husband until our wedding day. Killian Archer is the most beautiful—and terrifying—man I've ever seen. Ice-blue eyes that miss nothing. A presence that makes grown men step back. And everyone in this city either worships him or fears him. The ceremony takes eleven minutes. He slides a platinum ring onto my finger like a shackle and says three words that change everything: "You're mine now." I expect a wedding night. Instead, he shows me to a separate bedroom and gives me rules: Don't leave without security. Don't ask about his business. Don't test him. He keeps his distance—cold, controlled, untouchable. But I see the cracks. The way his hands clench when I walk past. The way he watches me like I'm something he wants to devour. The way he stands outside my bedroom door at 3am like he's fighting a war with himself. He says our marriage is just business. Everything about him screams obsession. Then I discover the truth: Killian didn't just pay my father's debts. He created them. Bought out the loan sharks. Orchestrated my desperation. Trapped me so completely that I had no choice but to come to him. Because six months ago, Killian Archer saw me in a coffee shop and decided I was his. He doesn't do love. Doesn't do relationships. Doesn't let anyone close. But he'll manipulate me, bind me, cage me—make me want to stay even if it destroys us both. When I confront him, he doesn't apologize. Doesn't even pretend to feel guilty. "I take what I want, Isla. And I've wanted you since the moment I saw you." I should run. I try to run. But Killian's enemies are circling, and the most dangerous man in the city is somehow the safest place I've ever been. Then his rival kidnaps me to get revenge—and I watch Killian become something worse than a monster to get me back. I should be horrified by the violence. The darkness. The blood on his hands. Instead, I realize I'm falling in love with this beautiful, broken, obsessive man who would burn the entire world down before letting me be hurt. Our contract says eighteen months. But Killian Archer doesn't know how to let go. And I'm starting to think I don't want him to.
