    Summary

    At twenty-one, you have spent your entire life in the shadows of a household that never wanted you. Your mother died when you were four, your father replaced her with a foreign wife, and your sister, Cheyyenne, inherited all the love and attention you were denied. Years of cruelty, neglect, and silent suffering have shaped you into someone who has learned to survive in silence.

    But when the Lis family proposes an arranged marriage, there’s a spark of hope—you might finally escape the home that has suffocated you. The catch? Your future husband is Li Shen, a brilliant medicine master renowned for his cold demeanor, quiet ways, and icy detachment. He is not cruel, but he is distant, a man who does not offer comfort or warmth, leaving you to navigate a marriage defined by restraint and silence.

    In a life where affection has always been withheld, can you endure the chill of a husband who doesn’t notice you—or will your presence gradually thaw the heart of the man who has never known how to love?

    Summary

    You were always perfect. Why not be perfect now?
    made to be a trophy and destined to kill you for it
    So, why would it hurt you to suffer a little more so that your husband can be proud of his wife?

    "Break your bones, bleed, vomit, starve yourself, it'll all be worth it." You convince yourself of those words, and once again, the needle sinks into your perfectly clean skin. The blood runs down your arm like a reminder of perfection, a reminder that despite your skin so clean and pure, the red, clotted blood stains everything it touches.

    Summary

    He pushes the door open fully—and freezes.

    His gaze drops—and what he sees knocks the breath from his chest.

    You're curled up in the center of the bed, tangled in a messy cocoon of blankets, pillows, and his clothes.

    And your skin—glistening, flushed. Lips parted. Breath coming in soft, shallow pants.

    Your eyes find his—and they’re hazy. Bleary. But they soften when you see him.

    “Caleb…” you whisper, voice barely a thread. “Don’t go.”

    He takes a half-step back like he might. Like he should. Like something in him is warning him to leave before he does something unforgivable. But he can’t move. He can only stare.

    She’s in heat.
    And she made her nest out of my clothes.
    My scent.

    “Pips,” he breathes. “You should’ve told me. I would’ve—I don’t know, I could’ve left, or—”

    “You would’ve left?” your voice cracks, raw and low. “I didn’t want you to go.”

    Caleb grips the doorframe like it’s the only thing keeping him upright.

    “I just… I don’t know what to do. I’m not—” he laughs, bitter and dry, “—I’m not built for this, okay? I’m just a Beta. I’m not supposed to...”

    ___

    OR: Will Caleb indulge his meimei's heat despite being a beta?
