But I see right through that mask, Zephyrine.”I held my ground, unwilling to let him see how much his presence was affecting me. “If you think you can intimidate me, you're mistaken. I've stood against worse than you.”His lips curved into a faint smile, but there was something deeper in his gaze now—something that felt like fire. “You feel it, don't you?” he murmured.I stiffened, my wolf practically clawing to get out. I did feel it—the pull, the undeniable connection that tied me to him. My mate. The realization hit me like a tidal wave, and I hated how vulnerable it made me feel.“You're wrong,” I said sharply, though my voice wavered. “Whatever this is, I don't want it.”Caden's eyes softened, but he didn't back down. Instead, he took another step forward, closing the distance between us until I could feel the heat radiating from him. He raised a hand, brushing his fingers lightly against my cheek.“Deny it all you want, Zephyrine,” he said softly, his touch sending sparks through my skin. “But your wolf doesn't lie. You can feel it, just like I do.”I shivered, hating how my body betrayed me. My breath hitched as his thumb gently traced along my jawline. “I've been waiting for you,” he continued. “And now that I've found you, I won't let you go.”I clenched my fists, forcing myself to stay firm. “I don't need a mate,” I whispered, though the words felt hollow.Caden's smile widened, but it wasn't mocking—it was warm, almost tender. “You may not think you require me,” he said, his voice steady, “but I promise you, Zephyrine, you'll want me. And when that time comes, you'll submit—not because I demand it, but because you'll choose to.”The way he said it made my heart stutter, and for a moment, I forgot how to breathe.Before I could respond, he leaned closer, his lips brushing against my ear as he whispered, “You'll see, my queen. You can try to fight it, but you'll be mine in the end.”He pulled back, his intense gaze locking with mine one last time before he turned and walked away, leaving me standing there, breathless and trembling.My wolf was practically purring, but I wasn't going to give in.Never.

This story tells the life of two people, a noble only in name and an older wife from the army, married through a tentative agreement. In the bone-chilling cold, they spend their time hunting, gutting, and cooking by the fireplace. Their daily life passes peacefully. This is the warm love story recounting their daily lives.

Lin Anan penetrated into the novels of the ABO entertainment circle and became a vicious cannon fodder of an 18th-tier weak A. Not only did he end up pitifully, but his abilities were weak like Beta.

Lin Anan immediately decided to bypass the protagonists and keep the plot low-key to the end.

However, while pretending to be a Beta to make a living, he accidentally marked Er Yu Nanxi, a vicious and drunken woman who was lost in love.

Thinking of Yu Nanxi’s methods, Lin Anan had no choice but to run away.

When encountering Yun Nanxi’s fever again, Lin Anan, who just wanted to take a detour, was found to have a very high pheromone fit with Yun Nanxi.

In order to save enough money to run away as soon as possible, she could only bite the bullet and stay behind, pretending that she didn’t know Yu Nanxi.

Just when Lin Anan was saving money and preparing to run away, he was recognized by Yu Nanxi and blocked in the dressing room. Yu Nanxi said coldly, “During this time, you can make me look good.”

Lin Anan was cowardly and weak: “Well, I actually don’t know what happened, but I can make it up, really!”

“Why don’t I wash it for you? I’ll go with you, but I don’t have enough money now…”

The corner of Yu Nanxi’s mouth twitched: “Want to wash it off? It’s beautiful!”

Lin Anan: ? ? ?

After becoming famous, Yu Nanxi, the actress who never took intimate scenes, actually took part in a Double O Lily movie with a kiss scene recently.
What’s shocking is that there are not only several kissing scenes with the second girl in this movie, but also many indescribable scenes with the third girl.
When the filming of the official film started, the kiss scenes of Yu Nanxi and the second female Tang Xin were all shot in dislocation.
Fans clapped their chests and said that Queen Yu Ying is still Queen Yu Ying, how could she film a kiss scene.
On the second day, it was Yu Nanxi’s turn to shoot a kiss scene with the third female Lin An’an.
Fans looked at Lin An’an, an eight hundred and eighty-eighth-line star profile, and ignored it at all, but saw Yu Nanxi holding each other’s face and kissing him.
