You, Liu Erlong, Are My Woman Now!

The next morning, at dawn.

As Liu Erlong slowly woke, the first thing she felt was an aching weakness throughout her body, as though she had been pulled apart. Especially around her waist and abdomen—it felt as if something heavy had crushed them, leaving behind a strange, unfamiliar fullness.

Then came the warmth against her skin!

Her eyes flew open!

What entered her sight was the rough stone texture of the secret chamber's ceiling, but that was unimportant.

At that moment, all her senses were consumed by the body pressed tightly against her!

She was lying on her side, a long, powerful arm possessively wrapped around her waist, its hand resting perfectly over her flat, taut abdomen.

Her back was pressed against a broad chest lined with defined muscle!

That steady, solid heartbeat pounded against her spine like a drum, sending shivers through her body.

One of her legs was pinned beneath another, stronger leg, without the slightest gap between them.

Xiao Yin!

Liu Erlong's mind went completely blank. Then, the chaotic scenes from last night surged back like a flood!

Mist, tearing, rhythm, her uncontrollable screams and his low roars...

"Boom!"

A tremendous wave of panic swept over her!

She, Liu Erlong! The headmistress of Blue Tyrant Academy! The Corner of Slaughter! She had actually been with a young man... in the academy's secret chamber...

She instinctively tried to break free, but her body, exhausted and sore to the marrow from last night's madness, would not move at all.

That movement only made the chest pressed against her back press closer, while the arm around her waist tightened further.

"Mm..."

A muffled groan heavy with sleepiness came from behind her. Warm breath brushed over her sensitive ear, making her tremble faintly.

Liu Erlong's body instantly stiffened, and she even held her breath.

She felt her heart pounding wildly in her chest, as though it were about to leap out.

She bit her lower lip hard, wishing she could immediately dig a hole and crawl into it—or simply burn this secret chamber, herself included, to ashes!

Let it all be destroyed!

Just then, the person behind her seemed to wake completely as well.

The arm around her waist stiffened slightly, and the palm on her abdomen unconsciously tightened before slowly relaxing.

The secret chamber fell into utter silence.

Only their mingled breathing could be heard clearly, carrying an awkward and... intimate air.

After a long while, Xiao Yin's deep voice sounded behind her. It was slightly hoarse from sleep, yet exceptionally calm.

"Awake?"

Liu Erlong did not answer. The tips of her ears had turned red enough to bleed.

Right now, she only wanted to be an ostrich.

Xiao Yin seemed to sigh softly.

He did not immediately move away. Instead, he buried his face in her loose hair and took a deep breath, the gesture carrying a natural intimacy and possessiveness.

Then his voice sounded again, steady and powerful, clearly reaching her ears.

"What happened has already happened. Regret it? Useless. Feel ashamed? That won't change anything either."

His fingers curled around a strand of her hair. "I know what you're thinking. Age? Status? Society's judgment? Heh..."

He gave a faint scoff.

"Back then, didn't you dare defy the world and disregard convention because you wanted to be with that Yu Xiaogang? At the time, did you care about the age gap? Did you care what others thought?"

At the mention of Yu Xiaogang's name, Liu Erlong's body trembled violently!

A bone-chilling disgust and contempt instantly washed away the shame in her heart!

That was right. For that coward, hadn't she once rushed headlong into disaster like a moth to a flame? When had she ever cared about worldly conventions?

But what had she gotten in return? Endless pain and deception!

"I am not Yu Xiaogang."

Xiao Yin's voice carried an unquestionable dominance. "I won't make those hypocritical promises. But I can tell you this: last night... was not an accident."

His arm tightened around her again, locking her firmly in his embrace. His lips nearly touched her ear, his voice carrying a possessiveness like a declaration.

"You, Liu Erlong, are my woman now. No one can change that."

That domineering declaration, almost savage in its force, struck Liu Erlong's chaotic heart like a thunderbolt!

There were no sweet words and no false promises—only a naked declaration and possession!

It was utterly unlike Yu Xiaogang's cowardice. It was the power of a strong male!

Embarrassment and anger, yet also a trace of stirring emotion, churned within her.

She abruptly turned her head, fury blazing in her phoenix eyes as she glared at the young, handsome face close at hand. "You little brat! You... mmph!"

Her angry rebuke was sealed by a sudden kiss!

The kiss was full of punishment and declaration, carrying an irresistible force that instantly seized Liu Erlong's thoughts!

She struggled instinctively, but the weakness in her body and his powerful arms made it impossible for her to break free.

"Mmph... mm..." Her resistant whimpers gradually turned into soft nasal sounds.

Liu Erlong felt the anger and shame she had only just managed to gather melt like ice and snow beneath Xiao Yin's kiss.

The Heart of the Dragon bond rooted deep in her bones seemed to become a lit fuse at that moment, detonating all her emotions completely!

Her stiff body gradually softened, and her taut nerves began to relax.

The faint concern she held over their age difference seemed so pale and powerless before Xiao Yin's dominance, so far beyond his age, and the special bond that had long existed between them.

That was right. Since when had Liu Erlong cared about such worldly rules?

She had once dared to love and hate without restraint. Now... why should she hesitate and hold herself back?

Since it had happened, and since it did not feel bad—indeed, she was even... sinking into it... then what was wrong with following her heart?

When the kiss ended, Liu Erlong panted softly, her phoenix eyes shimmering with moisture. The last traces of her anger had long since vanished.

In their place was a languid air of resignation mixed with a hint of indulgence.

She glared fiercely at Xiao Yin, but her gaze was more coquettish than angry. "All you know is how to bully me..."

Xiao Yin looked at her flushed cheeks and smiled, though his voice remained forceful and beyond dispute.

"From now on, in private, you are my woman. In public, you are still the headmistress of Blue Tyrant Academy and my teacher. Understand?"

Liu Erlong snorted and turned her face away, but did not argue.

This was probably the best way to handle it. She did not want this unconventional relationship exposed and subjected to gossip, either.

This secret relationship... seemed... not bad?

Feeling the body still pressed tightly against her back and the possessive arm around her waist, the last remnants of resistance deep in her heart finally faded away.

She even leaned back into him slightly, letting out a satisfied yet weary sigh.

"Got it... you little bastard... Let me sleep a little longer... My waist is about to break..."

Xiao Yin gave a low laugh and tightened his arms, holding the mature, voluptuous, fiery body in his embrace firmly against him.

A new relationship, transcending age and status and carrying the air of taboo, quietly took shape on that chaotic, sensuous morning.

Liu Erlong closed her eyes and felt the warm embrace behind her.

The hypocritical shadow of Yu Xiaogang seemed to be completely dispelled at that moment.

In its place was a brand-new bond, one filled with fierce possessiveness.

She was no longer alone, guarding that illusory affection. She had someone real now—a little man who made her angry and resentful, yet whom she could not resist...

What would the future bring?

She did not know, nor could she be bothered to think about it.

At least at this moment, this embrace was warm and reassuring.
