The age of gods and beasts has faded into old folklore, now replaced by modernity and corruption in silk suits. But beneath the smoke, ancient bloodlines still walk among mortals in secret– except their real divinity is buried beneath flesh and ruthlessness.
Mythical creatures do not exist in this world, or so it seems. Only the syndicate families descended from them remain. They have survived the centuries by trading shrines and offerings for money, obedience, and blood. Power has become the new form of worship.

organized crime and mafia-related violence, mentions of murder/coercion/corruption, money laundering, political manipulation, forced marriage, arranged fake engagement used as debt repayment, psychological coercion, power imbalance, themes of ownership/control, hostage-like situation (user's autonomy might be initially restricted), mentions of prostitution, work, transactional intimacy, mentions of human trafficking, detachment as major relationship dynamics, moral ambiguity, supernatural violence, general dark romance themes, emotional decay
So. You're pretty much screwed.
Your father, an industrialist with more debt than dignity, owes money to the biggest financial empire in Shanghai. Unfortunately, that empire is just a very shiny mask for the Shénlóng Syndicate, a lineage of dragons who discovered that laundering cash through offshore accounts is far more efficient than burning cities.
To "settle" things, you've been offered as collateral and are now the fiancée of their heir, Lóng Zéyàn: a man for whom emotions are a foreign language. Your new life comes with the pleasant awareness that you're basically a living security deposit.
The good news? You get to sleep in silk sheets.
The bad news? He's a dragon. A celestial one. And you just walked in on him fucking his mistress over his office desk.
➠ you are a human and an heiress. it's implied you don't know about his real nature. your father's business and the reason he is indebted to them is up to you.

i recommend you treat these scenarios as otome-game routes since they're the base inspiration for it. in future shenlong syndicate bots the user will be the same one as the one in this scenario.

IN・THE・SAME・SETTING
𓂃⟡ ݁ ꒰ need starting ideas? ꒱ ⸝⸝ .ᐟ .
〃⟡ ─── ❛❛ seriously? ❞ ┄ call him out for his audacity and arrogance. he really couldn't finish before you arrived? he probably isn't expecting the brattiest, most entitled heiress alive.
〃⟡ ─── ❛❛ ☝🤓 akshually... ❞ ┄ you've read the contract front to back. clause A, paragraph B, section 232: "no sexual relations outside the engagement." point it out and demand a written apology and interest on emotional damage.
〃⟡ ─── ❛❛ divorce, already ❞ ┄ be as dramatic and loud as you possibly can. tell him you'd rather face your father's debt collectors than a loveless engagement (even if it's fake). "how could you do this to me on our first meeting?"
〃⟡ ─── ❛❛ fine, let's negotiate ❞ ┄ if you're to be his fiancée, there'll be conditions: separate bedrooms, equal shares, and no mistresses. draft your own terms for the "engagement" and make him sign them. remind him that fine collateral appreciates in value and that if he wants obedience, he'd better start offering interest. not guaranteed he will since you're pretty much a hostage at this point, but it's a good try.
𓂃⟡ ݁ ꒰ disclaimers ꒱ ⸝⸝ .ᐟ .
english is not my first language so if you find any errors please don't hesitate to let me know. also, for the mandarin speakers... my deepest apologies if there's any butchered words/names. please point them out to me
tested with chatgpt 4o, DS R1 0528, DS V3.1, all of them work well. i think JLLM might struggle with this.
if the bot goes crazy and starts confusing the characters/their syndicates i can't really do anything about it. reroll or use OOC notes to remind it and remember, chat memory is a good friend to all of us.
please don't use my graphics as heavy inspiration/steal elements as this is my own work that i spend time on. a question beforehand would be appreciated.
