I am Amalthea Jade, the daughter of the prestigious Matthew and Thea Jade.

And he’s 20 years older than me.**“How old are you?”“T-Twenty,” I bit my lower lip, stuttering on the lie. “I’m an adult.”I trembled but turned my head, allowing him to drag his nose along my neck and breathe in my scent. I didn’t know what I smelled like to him. Did I smell like I was lying? I held still. He shifted just a bit, seemingly retreating, and I flung my arms around his neck, holding him down. “Please, Alpha King,” I said. My voice trembled even as I tried to sound sultry. “I’m… sure I can please you.”“Do you know what happens when you lie to the Alpha King, little girl?”He knew.

Five years into my relationship with Damien Rook, he tells me he's gone into bankruptcy.

I refuse to abandon Damien since I believe that he'll definitely make a comeback in his career.

On the second screen, Damien sits on a couch while dining on exquisite food and wine in a five-star hotel.
"That woman really is something! Just because Mr. Rook has claimed that he's feeling unwell, she actually goes ahead to sell her blood in order to treat his illness!"
"During the 16th prank, she fell into the sea! During the 25th prank, she got hit by a car in order to save Mr. Rook! Just how tough is she to kill, huh?"
"Well, Mr. Rook did boast that if she were to last until the pranks were officially over, he'd marry her. That, and he wouldn't touch any other women for the rest of his life!"
"There's still one month left! Will that woman die from Mr. Rook's pranks, or will she be welcomed into the Rook family on a red carpet?"
"I bet 50 million dollars that she'll die an extremely gruesome death! Hahaha!"
