Second Flame Of Romance by ChocoLily

[The same world as 'The Dragon's Flower. Can be read as stand alone. This is not the FULL version!] The first man she fell in love with was one-sided on her part, and her insistence on pursuing her feelings ended up destroying her father's career. The second man she fell for saved her and her family from harm, but also the one she knew could not end up with. After her first heartbroken experience, Wan Ting was being extra careful with the second man that quickly occupied her heart without much warning. Not intending to confess her feelings like how she had to her first love, she decisively avoided Prince Heng to prevent her heart from being trampled again. No one in the Guilin Kingdom does not know that Prince Heng only loved the Empress Dowager and remained unmarried, not even taking in a concubine. But when the evil sect had their eyes on Wan Ting's Flame Spirit and planned to take it away from her even at the cost of her life, she could only rely on Prince Heng for her safety. While being rescued, with her chastity in danger, Wan Ting saw an opportunity to tie Prince Heng to her side. With trembling pupils and racing heart, she wondered if she should take the opportunity presented to her. She just hoped that she would not regret her decision.
