While on the run from her abusive older brother, her only remaining family, Adalie comes across a severely injured forest spirit named Koa, who begs Adalie for help. Adalie takes them to nearby ruins of a grand old manor, where the spirit explains that they were attacked by a dangerous creature known as The Hybrid, a minion of the Dark Emperor Kaldareth. He rules over the Isen forest with an iron fist, so when he heard the locals whispering about a secret prophecy, one that speaks of a human girl leading to his downfall, he sent out his minions on a relentless search, attacking innocent spirits and animals, questioning them on whether they've seen her, and then killing them, so the girl won't know of her destiny should she come across one of his victims. Luckily, the Hybrid was sloppy, and Koa is still alive... but barely. They strike a deal with Adalie. I exchange for her help in collecting the ingredients required to make a potion which will save them, Koa will free her from living her brother. So Adalie sets out on a dangerous quest, aided by a mysterious yet strikingly handsome river spirit, Zyair. Thrown into a dark new fantasy world crawling with watchful eyes and lingering threats, will Adalie succeed and save Koa? Or will she be captured by the cruel Emperor whose only goal is to kill her?

Yan Niyu has always lived within carefully drawn lines; her days filled with poetry, embroidery, and the quiet expectations of a lady of her standing. When a broken engagement fractures that fragile peace, she is left marked by scandal and whispers behind silk fans. Once admired, Niyu finds her future narrowing with every polite smile. When her mother's desperate prayers give way to a proposal few would envy, the life she has known begins to crumble. ... Niyu lowered herself onto a nearby stool, not trusting her knees. Her eyes widened in disbelief as her mother's words echoed in her mind. Military. How could they dare to ask her hand for marriage? She stared at her ink-stained hands, still carrying the faint scent of musk. Would these hands hold ones calloused from swords? Like the warlords in her most treasured plays-men she had only read about. ... A Ming dynasty inspired romance where Wen meets Wu; two young strangers, bound by duty, forced to confront prejudice, pride, and the hard work of building a life together.
