摘要

He's supposed to hate her. She's the daughter of the leader of the mafia group that took him captive. He's the son of a conglomerate president who's known for their royal blood lineage. Her clan, the Viatrix, kidnaps people with special traits and attractive features to sell them off. His family, the Allaric, is known for their 'jewel eyes' which serve as physical proof of their bloodline. One group hunts, the other's hunted - thus happens the fateful meeting of their heir and heiress. "Aww, do you really hate me that much, Allaric? I'm sure there's an alternate universe where you're madly in love with me." "Quit messing around. I'd rather get sold off right now than fall in love with a scum like you, Viatrix." To the naughty and mischievous mafia heiress, he's just a doll she can play with. To the apathetic and calculating child prodigy, she's a playmate he has to outwit in order to flee - Or at least, that's how they're supposed to be. "Well, I do hope that you won't fall for me after I do this, Allaric." She helped him escape. --- After helping Drystan Allaric break free, Ercilia Viatrix suffered a lot and sacrificed many things. She was forced to marry an abusive husband, got banished from her family, relinquished her inheritance, and was trained to be the mafia's human killing machine. For her betrayal, she's brutally punished, and for her help in the escape, she received nothing. She never saw nor heard from him again, but even then, she never regretted saving him. Thirteen years later, Ercilia met a young boy who has the same jewel eyes and the same cruel fate. Again, she found herself saving the child just like before - without really expecting that she'd cross paths with Drystan once more. "Uncle Drys, can we take Cil with us? I want a new mom," asked the young boy she saved. "I'm afraid you can't take her as your mom, nephew. How about an aunt?" answered the young man she also saved. This time around, the wretched Ercilia will be the one who'll get taken away by a hopeless romantic Drystan. --- [Warning: Mature Content] (Cover photo is not mine.

Chapter 1Excerpt

"It would be my honor to take you home tonight, my dearest Ercilia."

Ercilia frowns then. Drystan smiles.

In the span of thirteen years that she didn't get to see him, he seems to have gotten quite playful. He has become more roguish, and as though to make up for the trouble it brings to her, he has become more handsome too. She can't believe that she'll start living under the same roof as him from now on.

Both of them are at the airport at the moment.

Ercilia has just arrived with Ethan and Gunther escorting her. Drystan came to pick her up and take her home – 

To his home.

Everyone around them is staring at him, beholding the godly masterpiece that he is. Ladies are captivated by his looks. Men are drawn to his presence. As if catching attention like this isn't enough, he just also had to welcome her the way a lover would, thus making a scene.

He went ahead and swept her off of her feet, pulling out a princess carry.

"So, you're really going to act like we're engaged now?" she rasped dryly.

"That's the agreement," he replied, flashing her a smirk.

"Aren't you embarrassed? The reputable head of Claire de Lune carrying some woman no one had ever seen before. Doesn't it make you feel ashamed?"

"Of you, Ercilia? I can never be."

Now that he said and did the deed, he proceeded to carry her all the way out of the airport, heading to the parking lot where their service is. She remains quiet the whole time, waiting for him to break character and cut the lovey-dovey act. Yet he never did. He continues wearing that soft, gentle smile of his until the end – 

Treating her with warmth, kindness, and care. 

He seems to be serious about this. She may have to resort to her final option.

"Drystan Allaric, I think you're forgetting something."

Ercilia pulls out a revolver from her purse and aims straight at Drystan.

He stops in his tracks just as he realizes that he's being threatened with a gun at point-blank. His bodyguards, who've been following them from behind, have also taken out their firearms as soon as the scene dawns on them. Almost instantly, they encircle them and aim at her, demanding her to put down her weapon.

However, Ercilia isn't fazed at all. Neither is Drystan.

For a fraction of time, the two of them just keep staring at each other – her expression steely yet haughty, his perplexed yet calm. Eventually, she speaks up again and breaks the silence.

"Okay. Forget about being embarrassed or ashamed. But don't forget that I should've been the Viatrix crime family's ringleader. I'm capable of killing you however and whenever I want to," she taunted, not buying his act – not now, not ever, especially after thirteen whole years of waiting in vain.

Little does Ercilia know that Drystan can tell right away.

She is testing him. He can see that she is still doubting his good intentions. 

Skeptic and afraid. It makes sense. 

Even so, he knows that she will not pull the trigger. He's confident that she needs him even if it's not as much as he needs her.

With that in mind, Drystan only smiles again, much to Ercilia's surprise.

"Of course, I will never forget how fearsome and powerful you were back then, my lovely fiancée..." he quipped with a smirk on his face as he put her down and held both of her hands.

"I'm not sure why you're threatening me all of the sudden. But if I did do something wrong and I had to be punished, could you please wait until we're all alone in our room later? I promise I'll lock the door."

He then leans down and kisses the backs of her hands.

She has to take a moment to understand the dirty meaning behind his words. Once it finally registers, she can't help but turn bright red and shout at his face.

"You bloody pervert!"

Transmigrated Into The True Heiress

Eira Kingston, a feared assassin, never imagined that death would lead her to transmigrate into the body of Ephyra Allen, the disgraced first daughter of the once-powerful Allen family. But what shocked her even more was the soft mechanical voice in her mind, addressing her as "master" and informing her that her soul had returned to its original body. Eira dismissed the strange voice, thinking she was having a post-death hallucination. But waking up in a hospital, with memories that weren’t hers flooding back, she was forced to confront the truth. Ephyra’s life had been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite being the legitimate daughter, she was labeled a bastard, shunned by all, and overshadowed by her scheming stepsister, who had stolen the love of her father and her betrothed. To make matters worse, the wealth and status the Allen family enjoyed were all thanks to Ephyra’s late mother, and the only reason she hadn’t been discarded entirely was due to her mother’s inheritance, locked away until she turned eighteen. But Eira wasn’t one to be defeated by circumstances. If she was going to live Ephyra’s life, she would do so on her own terms. She would destroy those who had caused Ephyra pain, claim the inheritance that was rightfully hers, and find out who was behind her own death. Because if there was one thing Eira knew how to do well, it was to survive—and make her enemies pay. However, being a high-schooler with nothing to her name wasn’t enough. As Ephyra, she’s powerless, but as an assassin, she’s lethal. Still, even that wasn't enough until she became the contracted wife of Lyle Aelion—a powerful, enigmatic figure in the business world with a secret illness. And it turns out, the only thing that can relieve him is her scent.

Rebirth: Pampered by My Children and Husband

After Lin Xu died, she discovered that the world she was in was a novel. Her eldest son liked to imprison the female protagonist of the novel, engaging in sinister villainous acts with a dark room play. Her youngest son would unfailingly draw substitute's blood and snatch substitutes' kidneys for the female protagonist’s legal antagonist — his unrequited love. Her only daughter was the romantic fool forever revolving around the male protagonist of the novel. If children are not disciplined, the mother is to blame. After being reborn, Lin Xu felt she should step in and discipline her wayward children. However, before she could take action, her eldest son’s dark, handsome, and usually cold face blushed slightly as he asked in a low voice, “Can I touch my head?” The middle son snorted and turned his head, his tone petulant, “I... I don’t want to go home, but if you insist, I'll do it begrudgingly.” The youngest daughter rushed over, mercilessly pushing her brothers aside, “Mom, come and teach me how to solve this problem~” Latter, both sons fought over the bowl of noodles Lin Xu cooked. What was a novel’s female protagonist? Nothing compared to their mother. The daughter transformed herself, letting nothing from any novel’s male protagonist interfere with her studies! The family was blissfully happy. Latter, the revived, amnesiac husband suddenly appeared, cornering her against the wall, his eyes full of struggle, “Even if you're married, I still love you.” Lin Xu pretended to be serious, “Is that so, then what should we do?” He hugged her tightly, his voice muffled and pained, “Divorce him!” Lin Xu chuckled secretly, “I’ll divorce him right away.” Latter, after the husband regained his memory, he said through gritted teeth, “Over my dead body will we divorce!”
