His appearance ruined her wedding, and his words made her father changed his mind. He became her bridegroom in the end and had her been his prisoner. The only reason why he married her was to avenge his family. When she finally learned the truth, she broke down and began planning to run away. She succeeded and disappeared in his world. As she came back eight years later, she swore to make the man pay the price. This time, she was the only one who controlled her destiny.
It all started with a wedding.
The bride looked mighty unhappy but everyone else were having the time of their lives.
"Do you, Neil, take Bonnie to be your lawfully wedded wife?" the priest asked seriously.
Bonnie Meng tightened her grip on her bouquet. Shortly after, she heard Neil Xia's determined answer.
"I do."
'But I do not, '
Bonnie thought to herself. She lowered her head and kept her thoughts to herself.
This wedding came quicker than she expected. She wasn't able to do anything to stop it. It was a shotgun wedding. Three days after they got engaged, they were already pushed to walk to the altar. The marriage was between the Xia family and the Meng family.
The purpose of the marriage was to give the Meng family a chance to breathe while they were embroiled in a critical situation.
"Do you, Bonnie, take Neil to be your lawfully wedded husband?" the priest continued, unaware of the turmoil inside Bonnie's head.
Everyone's eyes turned to Bonnie, which made her uncomfortable.
"I..." She glanced at her mother's pleading eyes and her father's sweating face. Inwardly, she sighed dejectedly. "I do."
From his seat, the head of the Meng family, Talon Meng, breathed a sigh of relief. Their family was now saved. Over the pews of the church, Talon smiled at Mr. and Mrs. Xia. His daughter was finally useful.
Unfortunately, all bad things happened when one thought it was safe.
"You can't get married!"
A clear voice sounded from the church's double doors. Bonnie didn't even finish saying her vows when the voice cut in. Everyone turned to the intruder.
Her eyes met the man's and she felt as if she had crashed into an iceberg.
She felt cold all over.
The man's eyes were narrowed in murderous intent.
"Who are you?" Talon rose from his seat and shouted at the intruder.
He had placed all his hopes on this wedding. He couldn't allow anyone to destroy his family's only saving grace.
"Uncle Talon, don't you remember me?" The man began to walk slowly towards Talon.
His long strides ate up the distance as he walked inside in a well-tailored suit. The guests couldn't see his face clearly as it was against the light.
Finally, when they could see clearly, Talon's face immediately changed.
It wasn't because the man was too ugly. On the contrary, he was too handsome.
He had thick eyebrows that framed a pair of slightly sunken eyes. His face gave off a Western aura. His high nose and thin, upturned lips made him look fierce and sneering all the time.
It was the first time Bonnie thought the word 'unruly' could perfectly describe the man. He looked charmingly unruly.
"Atlas Zhuo? Is that you?" Talon finally recognized the man. He stepped back unsteadily and fell down in his seat.
Her father's reaction confused Bonnie. Who was this Atlas Zhuo? And why was her father acting like he had seen a ghost?
"So you still remember my father?" Atlas crouched down to Talon's level and sighed. "Uncle Talon, you should also remember that my parents died twenty years ago."
Atlas patted Talon, which made the older man jump in shock. The intruder's eyes twinkled in mischief.
"So you are Atlas's son? Gavin Zhuo?" Talon squeezed out in a trembling voice. The muscles on his face twisted into an ugly smile as he tried to keep his calm.
This was all very funny for Gavin. "That's right," Gavin said as he nodded happily.
Talon stared at Gavin in awe. The man in front of him was intimidating beyond belief. Fear clutched Talon's heart the more he stared at the young man.
"Oh, it's you! It's been a long time." Talon chuckled as he tried to pretend he was familiar with Gavin. He nervously glanced at Mr. and Mrs. Xia who looked very puzzled before he turned his attention back to Gavin. "I'm so happy you could make it to Bonnie's wedding. I won't blame you for coming in late."
For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
