As Zhao Yunlan watched the black cloak move among the diverse forces, he could see why Hei Pao Shi had become revered.

And then he saw his lover. It was obvious that it was a trap, knew that the moment he stepped closer, he’d be trapped as well, foreign magic crackling through the air.

He didn’t need more than a second to think about it further.

“Yunlan!” He called out desperately as he rushed forwards, feeling a force field pull up around him, “Wake up! Yunlan!”

Dixing is one of the last States standing against Emperor Zhao Xinci’s attempt to conquer and unite all the lands. The Crown Prince, Zhao Yunlan, has been fighting at the front lines of the war against Dixing for years when his mother gifts him with a concubine. Shen Wei is beautiful and magnetic and Zhao Yunlan falls in love with him instantly. But Shen Wei isn’t just a concubine; he’s a Dixing spy who’s being embedded in Zhao Yunlan’s household to gather intel and potentially assassinate the prince. He doesn’t expect to fall in love.

And despite the fact they’d been on their way to an audience with the King, Shen Wei let him.
