Devon had always considered himself as a self-righteous and ethical person. To the extent that he wouldn't lay hands on any woman or else, she consented to his touch.
Over the years which he would be referred to as the number one most home-wrecking and wife snatcher man in the world, it was, however, completely oblivious to these people that it was their women who wanted to be embraced by him and not the other way around.
Regardless of how Devon assembled the matter to the world, there were only a few people who believed him because it got to a point whereby some years from now the Phoenix empress herself would elope with him on the day which she was supposed to wed the dragon emperor.
It was a day that struck the heart of millions as the dragon emperor brought upon chaos for the cuckolding that befall him… Well, that was a story for later.
