Cai Ruyi, the third daughter of the Cài family, has lived her life in the shadows of her father's household: branded sickly, insignificant, yet quietly enduring constant schemes and envy.
To survive, she learned to keep her head low, holding her secrets close and ambitions closer.
But when peace returns to the borders, survival in the capital becomes far more dangerous.
In the new dawn of the empire, every banquet is a battlefront, every proposal an hidden ambition, and unseen hands tighten their hold over the throne.
What began as family rivalries soon pulls Ruyi into a far larger game, one where the cost of a single misstep could be her freedom, her future, or her life.
And from the edge of the snowstorm comes an untouchable man whose quiet return is set to unsettle the court and stir up past secrets.
Ruyi must decide how far she will go to protect those she loves... and what part of herself she is willing to sacrifice.

The man stood beneath the trees-cloaked in black, the same mask covering half his face. But those eyes... dark, burning, unmistakable. "Yibo," Zhan whispered, like saying a prayer.

He slammed into Yibo's chest, arms wrapping tight, as if to anchor himself to something real. "I waited," Zhan choked. "I never stopped waiting." Yibo's mask hit the ground. His arms circled Zhan, trembling. "I never stopped loving you." There were no royal duties here. No lies. No blood. Just two men who had survived everything but each other. When they kissed, it tasted like everything they had lost-and everything they still had time to find.
