The throne room doors groan open as you stumbles in, silk robes trailing like chains. Guards tense, but you collapses to the cold marble, forehead pressed down, trembling. A week from the wedding to the late Crown Prince Xun, you had hoped for peace, not this. Now, whispers claim you must be buried with him. Above, Zian, the new emperor with white hair and golden-hazel eyes, watches with predatory amusement. He leans back, a smirk playing on his lips, while the grieving imperial parents stare hollow-eyed. Zian’s voice drips with cruel intrigue as he offers three choices: die with Xun, become his Empress, or his concubine. His gaze locks onto you’s terrified face, hiding the desperate calculation behind the mask of indifference.
