*Slow Burn Historical Fantasy Novel*Elise had about to change into the dress that was lying on the corner of her bed when she heard a knock lightly calling from her door. Curious, she turned the door knob only to have a tall man towering in front of her."Master Ian!" She called.Ian smiled with the usual mischievous smirk that he always used. His crimson eyes trailing a little over her room and spotted the black dress over her bed and shifted his eyes over to the woman in front of him. He stepped forward and spoke. "Where did you acquire that dress?""Mr. Harland gave it to me." Elise replied and strained her neck to see Ian's brows knitted in its elegance."Do you know why a man would love to give a woman a dress?" He gave the riddle that she always had to think twice before replying. But this time, she found no answer and instead shook her head. "I don't know."His grin grew bewitching as though something had stirred deep inside the scarlet eyes that he had. He slowly slid his hand over the collar of her dress, sending a cold shiver that startled her for a moment due to its freezing temperature. After unbuttoning the first two buttons on her collar, he tilted his head down, whispering to her ears. "Because they want to be the one to undress the cloth."He paused and kissed her neck, turning the pale skin to red before retracting his move to fix his eyes on her and leisurely replied. "Unfortunately, you can't wear the dress over there with this." He chuckled and passed a box over to her hand. "And the fortunate news is I prepared a dress for you."Elise was a cursed little girl who could see ghosts. Her family hated her and threw her from one adoptive family to another. However, misfortune didn't act alone. When she was brought up by her aunt, she was sold as a slave. When she had thought she would become nothing but a sacrifice to the sorcerer, she was saved by a man whose identity was far different than a normal mythical being.

It's a dark room. The man was tall and awe-inspiring, like an emperor. Every time their flesh met, it was as if he was carrying out a merciless punishment. They had a passionate night of sex, and their souls and bodies felt connected. Luna did not remember who the man was; she only had vague recollections of his extraordinary body and the long howl at the end of their love-making. It had sounded like a fierce wolf who had managed to let its soul free. Later on, the ugly and plump Luna discovered that she was pregnant on the eve of her wedding. Her fianc, who had always regarded her with disgust, coerced her to break off the engagement, while her family regarded her as their shame. Luna agreed to break off the engagement so that she could give birth to the baby. However, her firstborn baby boy was taken away by her stepmother and sold at a high price to the rich Julie, who was in urgent need of a baby. Luna risked her life to give birth to two other daughters. With her brother's help, she fled the hospital with her daughters. At that moment, Alpha, the heir of the richest financial group in Europe and who was rumored to be cruel, was in the hospital's lounge. He was waiting for the birth of his first child. Ten months ago, Alpha was set up, and he had sex with a woman after he was drugged. He did not remember who the woman was, but Alpha knew that they were soulmates ever since that night. Hence, he wanted to find that woman! Just then, the daughter of a tycoon, Julie, approached him and said that she was pregnant. It was only then that he learned that he was going to be a father, but what puzzled him was that he did not feel anything with Julie. Five years later, when Luna brought her daughters back, they met. Not only did Luna regain her health and beauty after giving birth, she even gained superhuman strength. Right then, Luna only wanted to find her son and expose her stepmother's scheme. But Alpha could not stop his heart from racing when he saw her. He could not stop himself from getting closer to Luna nor stop himself from doing the things he did around her. Even a simple smile from Luna was a sweet temptation for him. When someone hatched a scheme to kidnap Alpha's precious son, Luna saved him. But before she could see his face clearly, Alpha took his son away. With wary eyes, he warned her, "Don't even think about using the boy to seduce me." Luna thought that he must be sick in the head. Sometime later, during a banquet, Alpha grabbed Luna's arm and spoke gently to her, "I My son likes you quite a lot. I mean I like you too." Luna stared at his red ears and smiled coquettishly, "Don't even think about using your son to seduce me."
