Chapter 1 Tonight, I Want You to Become Mine

I love you, like a tsunami rolling, like the wind rolling in the sand. I love you so much that I'm almost out of my mind. If you had known how much I love you, I would have saved all my love and devotion over the years and waited wholeheartedly, just for you to come by!

—James Lu

On the 27th floor of the Grand Dynasty Hotel.

With a room card in one hand, Elizabeth Liang tried to walk straight with the support of the wall. Then she staggered out of the elevator.

Her fair-skinned face was blushing from alcohol, yet it only makes her look innocent and lovely.

"This one?" Elizabeth finally walked to the room door. Looking at the gilded numbers on it, for a moment she couldn't be sure.

Big sis said the room number was 2703.

Or was it 2708? 2703? Then is it 8 or 3 on the door?

Elizabeth had drunk too much, and her head hurt. Her clear eyes were also a little blurred. She tilted her head and looked at it for a while but failed to distinguish the number.

She looked down at the room card in her hand, but why are the words on it blurring together and multiplying?

Forget it, forget it.

She shook her head, leaned against the door, took out the room card and began sloppily pressing it against the sensor.

"Beep—"

The door did not open.

She tried a few more times, but the results were the same. She slammed the door angrily then sighed heavily. "Guess it's the wrong one."

She was going to find another room, but when she turned around, the door, which she had failed to open after several attempts, was suddenly opened.

Then, her wrist was tied and she was dragged into the room.

There was no light on in the room. Although she was very drunk, she could feel that it was a man. As soon as she entered the door, she didn't even have time to make a sound before she was pushed against the wall by the man's big and powerful hands grabbing her shoulders.

"Didn't you leave?" The man asked fiercely.

Elizabeth was even dizzier after being hit in the head, and she couldn't hear what he said at all. She tried to make a sound, "Theodore?"

Big sis said that she would give her a surprise. Is Theodore back?

Although they had been engaged since they were young, wouldn't it be too hasty to do this now? She wanted to wait until they got married to...

"I gave you a chance..." The man was very close to her, Elizabeth could clearly smell the strong alcohol on him. It was so strong that even she, who had also drunk, could not help but frown.

"Since you have chosen to come back, I will never let you go again..."

With this, he held her little face, leaned down, and kissed her heavily.

Without any skill, his strength was terrifying. His hot tongue swept through every inch of her mouth as if he wanted to swallow her.

"Mmph..." Elizabeth felt that she could hardly breathe. Facing him like this, she was quite flustered. She shook her head hard and punched him with her small fists.

He did not seem to feel any pain. He stopped, but his lips were still attached to hers. He sneered and said, "You don't want to?"

"..." She didn't know why Theodore was acting so strange today. He was usually gentle, but now facing his scorn, she didn't know what to say.

Feeling her silence, he stared icily at her. He bent over and picked her up then walked towards the bed.

He forcefully threw down the woman from his hands, attached his body onto hers in an instant, then held her struggling hands over her head.

"No..." The light in the room was so dim that Elizabeth could not see his face clearly. But she felt that he seemed to have changed into another person tonight.

Theodore was always gentle and patient, not rude and rash-like he was today.

"I gave you so many chances... this time, don't leave again, okay?"

His actions were rough, but when he spoke, his tone was gentle and almost imploring. He lightly kissed her lips and earlobes, panting slightly.

Maybe it was because he sounded like a child begging for candy, her heart softened at his words. She whispered, "I've... been here all along..."

From the day Elizabeth knew that she would marry him one day, her heart's never had room for anyone else.

He seemed ecstatic, then kissed her lips again. "You're so sweet..."

"Tonight... I want you to become mine..."
