This review is part of a review swap and is valid as of chapter 10. By chapter ten we're still experiencing the extreme beginning of a second chance story. At least that's what I believe. I can't know for certain, because it's that early in the story. There are a few minor language errors, and I mean minor. It's difficult to write a review when my only thought is: Wow! I'll give my impressions under the stars section, and here they come. Writing: Five stars. Close to flawless. Updates: I'll just write five stars. Ten chapters is honestly not enough for assessing the stability of updates. Story: Five stars. A minor hiccup during the first two chapters, and after that superb pacing. Characters: Five stars. The reader experience the characters. If not directly then from the eyes of others. This way they come to life, because other characters live their own surroundings. World: Five stars. Again the world is experienced by the characters. I could, possibly, nitpick about a few passages of exposition, but even the sun has dark spots. Lastly, I'm in awe. If you've read my other reviews you should know that I don't hand out all five star reviews very often. This goes directly into my library.

If you have read the author's other work "Mr. Tycoon's Daring Wife", then you know what you can expect from this novel. I have not read this novel before it went on hiatus and when the author decided to continue writing this story, we were informed that the plot was slightly revised. Perhaps for the first 50 or so chapters, there might be people who are able to provide some spoilers due to prior knowledge of the chapters before they were taken down for editing and revision. But as the story develops further, I can tell that the plot is not as predictable as it seems and would keep you guessing what's going to happen next. Now that makes an exciting and interesting read right? Writing quality: Great. 👍 Clear sentences, sound grammar. The author pays great attention to details and you would be able to find many examples of beautiful and vivid descriptions in the story—from the character's physique to their clothes, their emotions to their actions, and their surrounding environment adds so much depth to the story and makes it enjoyable to read. These details were so well-written that it allow readers to picture the entire scene in our minds. Updating stability: The author is working hard to give us daily updates. Creation is hard and given that the author is still schooling, I can't, in my good conscience, demand daily updates, more chapters or mass releases. I hope fellow readers could be understanding and be patient to wait for updates even when there might be no updates on some days or even over a period of time. Story development: The story is developing well in my opinion, not too fast, not too slow. This is a female lead story and the title of the novel couldn't be any clearer as to where this story is headed. There are lots of mysteries waiting to be unravelled and the biggest mystery of all at this point as I'm writing this review (as of ch86) is the identity of the male lead that still remains unknown. I can't wait to find out! Character design: There are many of characters in this story and I think the author is doing a good job in building her characters. They are not just names, but the author gives enough descriptions to give us an understanding of their personality, character and values. It makes you feel like you actually know the character as a person, forming a connection to the characters. My favourite characters in the story are the members of the Li Family and I can confidently say that they are the universal favourites. World background: This is the first novel I'm reading that is set in the historical period and it's refreshing, a break from all the modern romance novels that I've been reading. As I'm reading the story, I feel like I'm transported back to the past, no doubt because of the author's writing prowess. I think having watched Chinese period dramas before in the past helped me in my imagination of the story. In conclusion, this novel is definitely worth a read! 👍😁 I'm glad I picked this up and I'm enjoying the journey!

The Tyrant's Pet

Aries Aime Heathcliffe. A princess from the small kingdom of Rikhill was loved by all. With her beauty that was enchantingly demure and a wise mind, she had caught a lot of attention and captured the hearts of many. One of them was the dashing crown prince of the Maganti Empire. Overcome by the desire to have her and his interest in the land of the small kingdom, the crown prince of the said empire would stop at nothing. The knights from the Maganti Empire marched across the masses and seized the four-hundred-year-old kingdom of Rikhill. The kingdom of Rikhill fell into ruin overnight. The crown prince left no members of the royal family alive aside from his war trophy, Aries. After suffering in his hands, Aries found the perfect chance to escape. That was when he took her to the world summit. A gathering of each sovereign from each kingdom and empire for peace talks. There, she met the emperor of Haimirich, Eustass Silvestri Abel Bloodworth. Overwhelm by desperation, Aries begged him to take her in. It was too late when she realized that the man she asked for help was far more cruel, twisted, and downright diabolical than the crown prince for taking her as his… pet! EXCERPT: With a pair of crimson eyes hovering over her, Aries held her breath. When the corner of his lips curled up devilishly, she couldn’t react fast as he swiftly flipped their position. She only realized it when she was saddling him, gazing down at Abel, wide-eyed. “No one is above me in this empire and even out — not even the law, but look at you,” he intoned with a devilish smirk. “Staring down on me… so daunting.” Aries bit her lip, planting her palm on her inked chest. “Your Majesty…” “Do you now understand the power you hold, darling?” Abel carefully wrapped his fingers around her wrist, chuffed by her reaction. “Only you, Aries, may go above me and the only person in this world who can look down on me. No one else.” He raised an arm and ran his fingers through the side of her hair, settling his palm on the back of her head before he pulled her down until her face was a palm length away from him. “You better use this at your own disposal,” he whispered, tilting his head as he lifted it up to claim what’s his. HER. Meet Eustass Silvestri Abel Bloodworth, the sadistic tyrant, who reigned an empire with an iron fist. With his pet, Aries’ increasing presence in his boring, dark life, he was set to kill her. But alas, every time he thought of taking her life, he finds himself changing his mind. The more he kept her by his side, the more it got harder to dispose of her. And the more he yearned for something deeper and darker... it was driving him insane. With a secret he was keeping from her, what would Abel do if Aries found out about the rotting truth behind the empire and the emperor? Would he kill her? Or kiss her? Perhaps cage her? And if she found out that Abel wasn’t just a normal human, would she try to escape? Or would she accept that he wasn’t just a demon incarnate? In a complicated world that tainted them black, was love even possible to bloom between a pet and her master? Watch as these two play the dangerous and insane game of love and lust. Who would be the master and the pet? Who was the prey? Read to find out more. --------- Original Story by: alienfrommars FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM for original character arts: @authoralienfrommars Discord server: https://discord.gg/tbS4rKec3e Disclaimer: Cover not mine.
