CHAPTER 1

The royal castle stood tall

And proud inside the forest at the edge of the city ,

gloriously magnificent without compare. Furthermore, it carried a sense of mystery that drew people in. The castle turrets reached high up into the sky coming close to the horizon under the outline of dusk it appeared even more distant and unreachable.

Hot..

Very hot..So hot it made on breathless.

On the large, English-style bed , a young girl slept soundly. A luxurious white muslin was draped over her sylphlike, delicate body many fine droplets of sweat slowly dripped down her delicate and pretty face and settled in the corners of her thin lips.

The sweat on her arms had already soaked through the white muslin, forming a picture of temptation .

"" Nn so hot"

Shi xiaoNian made a sound of slight protest as she woke from her deep sleep in a daze.

Her eyes took in the luxurious yet.

Unfamiliar room a 14century oil painting on the wall swayed in her hazy vision .

Where was this?

She saw that there was a man sitting on the L-shaped sofa in the corner his fair , thin finger were just gracefully swirling a glass of red wine

Who are you ? Why is it so hot here? Can you shut off the heater?

Upon uttering her first sound shi xiaoNian discovered that her voice sounded very weak as it she'd just suffered from a bout of a severe illness.

It was too hot

"Women! If you still didn't wake up, i would have raised the temperature to 88 degrees

190F

and cook you alive!

A male voice echoed throughout the boiling hot room. His arrogant, urbane, and violent tone was terrifying.

Cook alive?

What did he mean Cooked alive?

Shi xiaoNian's mind was a mess.

The sweat ran into her eyes, muddling her vision.

She vision ,

She heard the sound of steady footsteps nearby. She lifted her hand to wipe off the sweat around her eyes, revealing a delicate collarbone. When she looked forward again, her eyes met a falcon like gaze.

The man stood in front of her bed, his legs long and straight. His spotlessly white shirt accentuated his tall and straight physique.

From his collar, two buttons had been loosened at the swell of his throat .

His face was so handsome that it could make people choke. His feature were carved like gems into his face with straight eyebrows and deep-set eyes. Under his straight, well defined nose, his thin lips were slightly apart. He was so sensual that it could kill.

The room was clearly hotter than hell, but there was not a trace of sweat on the man's graceful and calm face.
