Rebirth of the Wolfish Silkpants Bottom - Chapter 5

The engagement of the most adored daughter of the Li Family was broken off. Her furious family members railed against the heartless man and vowed to make him pay the price. * Later on, Li Qiao met her ex-fiancé’s big brother by chance. Some said he was the most mysterious man in Nanyang and his name was Shang Yu, aka Shang Shaoyan. While some others called him the overbearing and obsessive underground Overlord of Nanyang from whom everyone should stay away. Standing in the misty rain, Li Qiao gazed at the ruthless and untamed man with a shallow smile, said, “Hello, I’m Li Qiao.” She would become her ex-fiancé’s sister-in-law, if not wife. * Li Qiao and her ex-fiancé met again on the street several months later when he sneered at her, “Are you following me? Haven’t you given up hope yet?” A harsh voice berated him from behind, “Show some respect to your sister-in-law!” From now on, only one rumor was circulating in Nanyang City – The merciless Overlord of Nanyang had one woman he uncritically doted on. Her name was Li Qiao.

A conversation with a handsome stranger leaves Ariane chained in a cellar with a strange affliction. She soon discovers that the darkness of the nineteenth century’s Deep South hides many dangers. Mages, wolf shifters and the humans who hunt them play a risky game where to stumble is to die, all under the amused gaze of the apex predators of the supernatural world: vampires.

It is never healthy to attract the gaze of the aristocracy of the night. It takes much to survive in this merciless world, but Ariane will not let that deter her. The southern belle has a bite, and she is willing to learn and to grow in this hostile new world. She will use whatever means necessary to reclaim her freedom, be it guile, charm, or those intriguing new instincts that make blood so delectable.

This is a story of vampires as I believe they should be, with their strengths and weaknesses, with their remnants of humanity and the beast inside. Updates every Friday. Mind the tags.

The story probably exists in your local marketplace as well of I can tempt you.

The Republic of San Magnolia.

Traversing directly into the bridal chamber, the object turned out to be a princess!
A woman disguised as a man? The crime of bullying!
To be nice to the princess, but not to have too much contact with the princess?
You can’t be indifferent to the princess, and you have to keep a distance from the princess?
So, Tang Yunian spent every day like this…
daytime:
“His Royal Highness, the cakes made by my husband, would you like to try them?”
“Princess, this is the jade bracelet that my husband just bought today. Does the princess like it?”
“Princess, you like this flower, and I will plant a full garden for you!”
“…”
night:
“His Royal Highness, my husband is busy with official business today, so I can’t accompany the princess.”
“His Royal Highness, the husband is taking care of the mother today, so I can’t accompany the princess.”
“Princess, my husband is not feeling well today, so I won’t accompany the princess.”
“…”
One day and night it was dark and windy, and Tang Yunian started a familiar beginning again, “Your Highness Princess, for the husband…”
Her Royal Highness looked at her with burning eyes.
Swallowing his saliva and taking a deep breath, Tang Yunian told himself that beauty is important, life is more important, “For my husband…”
“Consort, do you have a hidden illness?” the princess asked.
I am not, I am not!
The princess pressed step by step, smiling brightly, “Actually, it doesn’t matter…”
“what?”
