Excerpt

———The story is located in Shanghai during the time where opium worth as much as diamonds———

Her black hair slipped over her pale shoulders. She watched as his green eyes looked at her body and find it adorable how much he was smitten by her even though she hadn't done much to him. While she sat on the bed, he had sat down on his knees, like the good obedient boy the moment she ordered him to kneel.

"Come here, love," she whispered. Her long fingers curled when she called for Lev to come toward her.

Lev who had been told to sit on his knees moved forward without standing. His eyes were glued to her as it was difficult for him to try and pull his attraction away from her. His Adam apple bobbed the moment she ordered him to come nearer and slowly he crawled in front of her.

Gathering his courage, he spoke, "My name is Lev."

"I know," Ilyana whispered out seductively. She traced his neck and grabbed his chin gently. "But you also fit to be called as 'Love'; and I like calling you that better… Do you not like it?"

How could he not like it?

Lev had never felt such attraction to a person as he did when his eyes met with Ilyana. He could tell to her eyes he was simply a new dog to be tamed. Perhaps because she found him prettier than the others. Although he dislike always being called pretty, he couldn't say he hate it now when it had become the reason for Ilyana to take a liking to him.

When her hand reached toward his face, Lev rested his face toward her fingers as if he was expecting a praise from her lips, "I like it," he whispered.

Ilyana's red lips spread to a wicked smile. She cannot handle how adorable Lev is, finding this man in front of her to be so lovely that she would kill every single human on earth if they dared to touch him. Her fingernails gently swiped over his cheekbones and she whispered with much gentleness, "Lev, if you become such a good boy, I promise I will reward you."

"Reward..?"

Ilyana moved the thin cardigan that covered her sleeping gown and teasingly stepped on his knee with her bare feet. "Want to know what it is?"
