/ General / Jilted by Day, Cuddled by Night
Synopsis
In the Federal Empire, any woman who had reached twenty years of age must get married, or be randomly assigned a husband by the System.
Thus, on her wedding day, the eve of her 20th birthday, Valerie Sullivan waited anxiously for her betrothed, Isaac Holt, to show up—only to find out that he was not coming after all! Trapped in this desperate situation, she grabbed the first handsome stranger she bumped into and got him to be her stand-in groom.
It did not hurt that this mysterious Jonny was just her type—young and innocent-looking, with furry ears and a large fluffy tail. So, what if he seemed a little lost and confused?
The wedding went on as planned, and Valerie was saved from public humiliation but only for the moment. After all, her marriage to Isaac was supposed to solidify the business partnership between the Sullivans and the Holts. In addition, her sister, Madeline, did not seem too happy that things turned out well for Valerie. Worst of all, Valerie found out that Jonny was an important, influential figure—Jonathan Gunn—the first commander of the Empire and uncle to the current monarch!
Who had Valerie actually married—the sensitive, adorable Jonny, or the formidable, impassive Jonathan? Would this last-second pairing end in true love or divorce?

Write a reviewI love this story, it has everything I could‘ve wished for in a sci-fi romance plot! ❤️ The writing is flawless, I’m already deeply immersed in this universe and just cannot stop reading! The MC is great, she has guts, she is intelligent and resourceful without being OP, her backstory and family are interesting. The ML has cute and fierce sides, he is so mysterious that you just want to know more, and his fluffy tail is a massive bonus, omg, I look so forward to however things will be developing between them. Even though they had this last minute marriage, contrary to what I expected from this kind of story, it’s not cheesy at all, everyone is kinda lost as to how to deal with it! And the worldbuilding integrates so well into the flow of the story, I already feel the upcoming adventures, they both have unique pasts and there are battles mentioned, as well as funny AIs bickering - the potential of this story is immense, I cannot wait to dive deep into it. I really hope this will be continued! ❤️
This was translated with different character names in After the Groom Ran Off, I Convinced a Military Commander to Marry Me on WN before, as trial read (it’s soooo longgg ago lol). Glad it was picked up again with the original names as per the raw.
I did the reverse. I actually have the raws for this but I couldn’t remember WN title. So tonight I found it. Hahahaha!!!! So enjoy the raws. The names in WN are not the original, obviously since since in Western names. FL is Su Wan.😇 白天被逃婚晚上被奶凶指挥官求抱抱 (唐苏里)
