Introduction
二十六歳の魂が別の十七歳少女の身体に入り込んだとき、すべては雲想の思い描いていたものとは違っていた。
未来のボス様である墨星澤が彼女の家に強引に居候することになったのだ。
そうして、てんやわんやの同居生活が始まった。
一年後。
思いもよらぬ交通事故が、雲想をふたたび二十六歳の時間へと連れ戻した。
彼女はそれを一場の夢と思い込み、目覚めれば元の世界だと考えた。
しかし、彼女が再び墨星澤の前に姿を現したとき。
すべてが違っていた。
彼女にとってはたった一年の出来事だったが、墨星澤にとっては九年もの間、執念を燃やし続けた人だった。
彼が彼女を自分の世界から再び逃がすわけがなかった。
墨星澤は立ち去ろうとする彼女の腕を掴み、歯を食いしばって言った。「雲想、俺はお前を九年も待った。九分だけ待つことさえできないのか?」
雲想は涙を流した。「もう私のことを望んでいないと思った」
墨星澤は焦りに駆られていた。あらゆる手段を尽くしたのは、彼女を一生そばに縛り付けておきたかっただけなのに。

Chapter 1
b市のあるオフィスビル、最上階。
都会のネオンが輝く夜景を前に、一人の女性が屋上のバルコニーの手すりに腰掛けていた。片足は空中に投げ出され、危うげな姿勢。彼女の前には六、七本の缶ビールが並び、いくつかはすでに空になっていた。
「ふっ…」
風が髪を乱す中、小さな自嘲の笑いが漏れた。
バルコニーに置かれたスマホからは着信音が鳴り続け、WeChat(微信)に次々と届くメッセージを見つめる彼女の表情には、苦さしか浮かんでいなかった。
他の人にとっては喜ばしいはずの出来事が、彼女にとってはまさに皮肉以外の何物でもなかった。
本来なら今夜も残業中だったはずの彼女は、スマホの通知音が鳴り止まないことに好奇心を抱き、開いてみた。
メッセージが届いていたのは、彼女と夏君辰(シャ・ジュンチェン)の大学時代の同級生たちが集まるグループだった。
多くの人が盛り上がり、写真や動画が次々と投稿されていた。
ピンク色の結婚式の装飾を見て、彼女は気分よく眉を上げ、動画を再生した。大学時代の誰が結婚するのだろうと思いながら。
ピンク色のユリの花の下、スーツを着た男性が愛らしい女性を抱き寄せて微笑んでいた。女性は恥ずかしそうに、何度も顔を男性の胸に埋めている。動画からは冗談を言い合う声が聞こえ、その中には彼女が聞き覚えのある声もあった。
金縁の眼鏡をかけた男性は、非常に穏やかな笑みを浮かべ、その口元の弧は彼の上機嫌を物語っていた。
しかし、そのスーツ姿の男性の顔を見た瞬間、雲想(ユン・シアン)はスマホを落としそうになった。
七年間の恋愛関係—彼女は目を閉じても彼の眉目を描けるほどだった。そんな彼が結婚するというのだ。
一週間前、彼が決然と別れを告げた理由がようやく分かった。
男というものは、心変わりしたら、誰よりも早く身を引くものなのだ。
雲想は缶ビールをもう一本開け、一気に飲み干した。目の隅に、向かいの広場の大型スクリーンが目に入った。そこでは豪華な授賞式の生中継が行われており、MYグループの総裁が謎の女性を伴って出席している様子が映し出されていた。
誰もが知るMYグループの総裁・墨星泽(モー・シンザー)は典型的なイケメン富豪で、様々な分野に事業を展開し、若くして資産は百億を超えていた。
雲想が勤める服飾会社もMYグループ傘下の子会社の一つだった。
多くの女性が墨星泽を憧れの対象としていたが、彼は女性に興味を示さないことで知られていた。
メディアは遠回しに、墨星泽の性的嗜好は異なるのではないかと示唆したこともあった。
当人はそれを否定することもなかった。
まさか今回、女性を同伴するとは。一斉にスポットライトが墨星泽と彼の隣の女性に向けられ、記者たちは彼女が将来のMYグループの女主人になるのかと質問を投げかけていた。
雲想はビール缶を掲げ、スクリーンに向かって酔った目で叫んだ。「おめでとさん!みんな揃って私の傷口に塩塗りやがって。彼女がいるのがそんなに偉いかよ。独身万歳だ!」
そのとき、突然電話が鳴った。
「もしもし?」彼女が声を出した途端、電話の向こうから田小野(ティエン・シャオイエ)の焦った声が飛び込んできた。「雲想、どこにいるの?」
「ああ、会社だよ」
「また残業してるの?早く来て、私は四季ホテルにいるわ」田小野は不機嫌な様子で、目の前の新郎新婦を睨みながら言った。「誰を見たと思う?」
「夏君辰でしょ」雲想はとても冷静に答えた。
田小野は電話を持つ手を一瞬止め、慎重に尋ねた。「知ってたの?」
「うん」雲想は小さく答えた。その後何を言ったか覚えていない。気づいた時には、手元から携帯電話が消えていた。
最後の缶ビールを飲み干すと、向かいの生中継も終わっていた。
まさに曲終人散—全てが終わり、人々は散っていく。
彼女はふらつきながらバルコニーから降りた。どれほど悲しくても、生活のために動かなければならない。仕事はまだ終わっていなかった。今夜もまた徹夜になるだろう。
足が地面に着いた瞬間、ビール缶を踏んでしまい、バランスを崩した。彼女はコンクリートの床に真っ直ぐ倒れ込み、頭を強く打った。意識を失う直前、雲想は思わずこう考えた—もし最初から夏君辰に会わなければよかったのに。少なくとも、今こんなに心が痛むことはなかったのに。

My Marked Luna
"Yes,"
He exhales, raises his hand, and brings it down to slap my naked as again... harder than before. I gasp at the impact. It hurts, but it is so hot, and sexy.
"Will you do it again?"
"No,"
"No, what?"
"No, Sir,"
"Best girl," he brings his lips to kiss my behind while he caresses it softly.
"Now, I'm going to fck you," He sits me on his lap in a straddling position. We lock gazes. His long fingers find their way to my entrance and insert them.
"You're soaking for me, baby," he is pleased. He moves his fingers in and out, making me moan in pleasure.
"Hmm," But suddenly, they are gone. I cry as he leaves my body aching for him. He switches our position within a second, so I'm under him. My breath is shallow, and my senses are incoherent as I anticipate his hardness in me. The feeling is fantastic.
"Please," I beg. I want him. I need it so badly.
