Zhan Xuan: Shadow's Claim on the Caged Princess

Zhan Xuan: Shadow's Claim on the Caged Princess

In the gilded cage of tyrant general Jahyeon, a princess becomes the obsession of Zhan Xuan—a being of dangerous duality, as sharp as 'Light & Shadow,' and twice as possessive. This is no tale of gentle protection, but of raw, unfiltered desire that erupts when he finally stops watching... and starts taking.

The chamber door splinters before her, wood shattering like bone under an invisible force. She spins, heart hammering, to find him leaning against the doorframe—Zhan Xuan, his presence filling the room with a tension thick enough to taste. Not Yato's gentle watcher, but a man unhinged by desire, his eyes raking over her as if she's already undressed.

Pain blooms where his fingers dig into her scalp, but it's nothing compared to the heat of his body pressing hers, the bulge in his trousers grinding against her stomach.

'You think that brute Jahyeon owns you?' His voice is a low growl, hot against her neck, teeth nipping at her pulse point until she gasps. 'He touches you, and I should what—thank him for keeping you warm?' His hand slides down to grip her jaw, forcing her to meet his eyes—dark, hungry, unapologetic. 'You're mine. Say it.'
