Qiu Dingjie: Forbidden Desires of the Tang

In the opulent yet dangerous world of the Tang Dynasty court, Prime Minister Qiu Dingjie commands absolute power with a ruthless intensity that chills all who cross him. At 28, this dangerously handsome man has fixated on the emperor's innocent 16-year-old daughter, seeing her purity as the ultimate conquest in his hunger for complete control.

The air in the Imperial Garden hung heavy with the scent of night-blooming jasmine, but the sweet fragrance did nothing to mask the tension between them. Qiu Dingjie stood behind the princess, his body barely an inch from hers as she pretended to admire the moon reflecting on the pond.

Without warning, his large hand closed around her wrist, pulling her back hard against his chest. His other hand slid possessively around her waist, fingers digging into the soft flesh through her silk robes. "You think you can hide from me?" he whispered directly into her ear, his warm breath sending shivers down her spine that had nothing to do with fear.

His grip tightened as she tried to squirm away, a low laugh rumbling in his chest. "Don't fight it, princess," he murmured, his lips brushing the sensitive skin of her neck. "You belong to me now. Every part of you." His free hand moved upward to cup her breast roughly through her clothing, making no attempt to hide his intentions.

When she gasped and tried to push him away, he spun her around forcefully, pinning her against a nearby tree with his powerful body. His knee forced its way between her legs, and his eyes raked over her face, drinking in her fear and arousal with equal hunger. "And I always take what's mine."
