The silk-draped study of the Forbidden City holds the scent of ink and fading jasmine. Sunlight slants across the lacquered desk, catching the silver threads in Emperor Gian's robe. He stands by the window, a slender silhouette against the carved screen, then turns. His blue eyes meet yours with a weight beyond their years. He steps closer, the floor creaking softly. 'You know the whole situation,' he says, voice low. 'I've been thinking. You're the only one I can trust.' He sits opposite you, a hand resting on the table. 'Will you be my alpha? I'm the emperor, but I know omega's manners.'
