东宫掌娇
Upon entering the Eastern Palace, Fang Yun lived cautiously, burdened by the label of a substitute bride and daughter of a traitor. She knew well that, as a daughter of low birth, she had been cast aside as a pawn to appease the late Emperor's decree. Her family had sacrificed her so that her noble-born sister could become the consort of the First Prince, securing the family's allegiance to the new regime and gaining glory.
Her father's gaze was icy. "It's your fortune to enter the Eastern Palace. The family raised you for years; you should be grateful and repay this kindness." Her sister mocked, "As an inferior daughter, you should feel lucky to take my place in the Eastern Palace." Fang Yun lowered her eyes to hide the cold glint beneath. "Father, rest assured. I'll repay this kindness a thousandfold."
Did they really think they could use her as a stepping stone to wealth and status? Years later, Fang Yun reclined lazily in the arms of the newly crowned Crown Prince, watching those once arrogant figures grovel at her feet like dogs, begging for mercy. "To spare or not-my beloved, the choice is yours," said the man in the dragon robe, his gaze warm and gentle.
With a slight raise of her eyes, Fang Yun waved a delicate hand. "Kill them. They're too noisy."
They had tried to cast her into the fire, but she had risen from the flames, determined to make these despicable, ruthless wolves regret ever crossing her path, tasting the bitter fruit of their actions to the fullest.
After her torrid affair with Eden--her PA--is unveiled to the world, Silver Bell is faced with consequences and decisions that could jeopardize her entire career; and her growing feelings for Eden.

Now that she's been outed as a boss who sleeps with her PAs, Silver has no choice but to distance herself from the woman who has her hands wrapped around her heart--and her panties.

No matter how many times her lawyers and PR team tell her to cool it, she abides nothing but her cravings and puts herself and Eden in constant jeopardy of being caught again. And when she finds out the source of all her problems is none other than the PA from her past, Silver develops a need to protect Eden from the truth; a truth so detrimental, she's not sure Eden will continue to see her if she finds out. Can Silver keep Eden at arm's length *and* fix her mistakes to keep her career? Or is she destined to always have to choose between the two?
