My Lovely Cat Husband

Lady Maria, a young noblewoman, is forced to marry Arthur, the infamous "Mad Tiger Duke," in order to protect her family. Believing the rumors that he is a ruthless killer, she plans to assassinate him on their wedding night. Instead, she discovers his astonishing secret: beneath the moonlight, the terrifying duke transforms into a massive golden cat. As they spend more time together, Maria realizes that Arthur is no monster. His fearsome reputation was fabricated by the Holy Sun Church, which has spent years persecuting the descendants of the Tiger King. The Church not only hunts them down but also uses their blood for inhumane experiments in a desperate pursuit of power and immortality. Determined to protect Arthur, Maria joins forces with Anya to uncover the truth and expose the conspiracies of the Church and the corrupt nobility. As they fight side by side, the couple's relationship evolves from mutual suspicion into deep trust, and they become devoted partners both in marriage and on the battlefield. In the end, Maria and Arthur reveal the truth behind the slander against the Tiger King's bloodline, defeat the monstrous Lucien, and seal the Crimson Sun Gate. Arthur reclaims his rightful place as the Guardian of the North, and the descendants of the Tiger King are finally able to step back into the sunlight without fear.
