In her past life, Giselle was betrayed by her husband and stepsister, who plotted to carve out her heart while she was still alive. But fate granted her a second chance. After being reborn, she returned from the countryside and, by chance, saved a mysterious man-only to steal his precious dagger and flee, completely unaware that he was the wealthiest man in all of Zephara. That very night, he caught up to her. "Little mouse, do you still think you can escape?" "I-I wasn't trying to...!" But no matter how she tried, there was no running away. She fell right into his trap-and into marriage with the overbearing man. Just when she feared she had made the same mistake again, he leaned in close and whispered, "Don't be afraid. As long as I'm here, no one in Zephara will dare disrespect you." When the richest man took Velmora City's so-called ugliest woman as his wife, everyone expected it to be a laughingstock. But when that so-called "ugly" woman unveiled her breathtaking beauty and astonishing skills, the world was left in shock. The countryside girl they had scorned was, in reality, an all-powerful goddess!
Dragon Blood

"It was the first thought she ever shared with me." Skylar pursed her lips. "She likes you very much." "What about you?" he teased gently. "How do you feel about me?" She set her jaw and once again managed to look down her nose at him while staring up at him. "Well... well, I'm rather fond of you, Orion." He let out a relieved laugh and pulled her into his chest again. "What a relief. I was worried it was just me." He nuzzled her temple, inhaling deeply, his dragon fully at peace.
