The Prisoner of Beauty《折腰》 / The Marquis is Innocent (君侯本无邪)
Author: Peng Lai Ke (蓬莱客)

In a time of war and ruin, Wei Shao, haunted by the fall of his city and the loss of his kin, rises from the ashes to restore the honor of the Wei clan. Feared on the battlefield, he turns from vengeance to peace-and proposes marriage to the Qiao family, once their greatest betrayers.

His bride, Qiao Man (Xiao Qiao), is sent into the union like a lamb to the slaughter. Rumors call Wei Shao a cruel warlord; she steps into his world with caution, knowing love has no place in such a match.

Yet beneath the cold walls of duty and pride, something unexpected blooms.
She is not what he assumed.
He is not what she feared.

As danger closes in, they begin to rely on each other-her quiet strength, his unspoken loyalty. When war returns to their gates, it is Xiao Qiao who stands firm, protecting a people not her own. And in her, Wei Shao sees the one person who might heal what bloodshed has broken.

of mist and power by nyxiekitsune

A PLOT, A COUNTESS AND AN HEIR Myrina Mai, Countess of Li Han, is in trouble. With her close friend and confidante Princess Irina now married in another country, all she wishes is to retire back to her own land and regain control of her own estate. However, her power-hungry uncles are doing all they could to block her return. With no one else to turn to, she asks superior and rival, Crown Prince Ryan Gu, for assistance. And who was Ryan to refuse? For the past decade of his life, he'd wondered what happened to the girl Myrina used to be. The girl she was before her father died and Myrina was forcefully kept in the Scarlet Palace, playing the games she never wanted to. She was free to go now, and he was not one to refuse her, even if he'd always secretly hoped she'd stay. Throw that in with an assassin after his life, his recent discovery that Myrina was secretly wiccai, and a traitor running amongst their midst-the two have plenty in their hands. And as the schemes stack up and the scent of treachery grows, Myrina wonders if leaving would be easy as she thought it was before. (book #4 of 4 in the court of bones series, the third instalment in the silk and steel chronicles can be read as a stand-alone)

Normally, they lived their lives separately, as if they were two strangers living under the same roof. But the peace was disrupted one morning. The night before, Wen Yifan was still sleeping in her room, but she found herself waking in Sang Yan's bed the next day. Aware that she sleepwalked from time to time, Wen Yifan could only apologize and put it away as her fault. However, when the situation repeated again and again, she tried to suggest locking his door before he heads to sleep... Sang Yan dismissed the idea, saying, "You'd just pick the lock." Wen Yifan tried her best to keep her composure. "Why in the world would I be able to do that?" "Well..." Sang Yan lifted his eyes and drawled, "is there anything you wouldn't do to climb onto my bed?" After an awkward pause, Wen Yifan smiled. "OK, then go ahead and try." Now that caught Sang Yan by surprise. Purposes: offline story only T/N: 92 Author: Zhu Yi Date: 04 /24 /24
