Feign Compliance

Rae Bennett gave herself a birthday gift at her coming-of-age ceremony—a golden cage. Then she put the boy she loved into the cage. Friends said: We, girls, need to be gentle. So she painted the cage a powdery pink and studded it with glittering diamonds. He asked, "Why?" "Because I love you." She will do whatever it takes to make him hers, even if it means breaking him. What kind of person is Rae Bennett? Everyone would reply: She's a sunny girl who loves to laugh and brings warmth to the world. Wyatt Wright said: She's the moon on Halloween, capable of taking lives. Alternate title of the book: How the Scheming Little Witch Pretends to be Good (PS: The male protagonist is not weak. This is a sweet and healing story)

261: Achieve Perfection From Horizontal End (First Update)_1

The moon was hidden behind clouds, and it was late into the night.

Asher Harrington still hadn't returned, and Selena Flores was worried. She put on her clothes, ready to head out, but just as she reached the foyer, the door opened with a response.

Selena's face lit up with joy, "You're back."

Asher seemed to need a moment to react, holding a baseball bat in his hand, standing still, his eyes piercing. Suddenly, they locked onto Selena, filled with intensity.

"Why are you back so late?" Selena asked with worry, "Why didn't you answer your phone?"

He continued to stare at her.

As she approached, she caught a whiff of alcohol, "Have you been drinking?"

Suddenly, he let go of the bat. It clattered to the ground with a thud, but he didn't bother to pick it up. Instead, he opened his arms to embrace Selena, burying his head in her neck, then let out a heavy sigh, "Yeah, I have."

Selena steadied him with her hands, fearing he might not be able to stand straight, "Are you drunk?"
