Blurb
Though she was a princess of the empire, she poured her heart and soul into a bastard son of a concubine whose mother was unknown and whose origins were a mystery, giving him everything she had. She helped him rise to prominence until he became a young prince everyone envied, but in the end, he met a miserable fate. If she could be reborn and live her life over, she would never again let her eyes deceive her heart, mistaking a jackal for a good man.
Born of dubious origins, he was more hungry for power than most. He used her until there was nothing left to take, and even watched her die a horrific death to prove his loyalty to the throne. In the end, he set her body ablaze, leaving not a bone behind. Once he became the regent who held all the power in the world, he thought he had everything under control and would live happily ever after. He never imagined that she was the deepest obsession in his heart, that he would yearn for her madly year after year. He sought immortals and the Way, praying for a chance to start over. If he had that chance...
He watched her pour her heart and soul into a bastard son of a prince's household, only to be treated cruelly and lie awake night after night. He broke into the prince's residence alone to save her, but was beaten to death beneath a flurry of clubs. Even with his dying breath, his eyes remained fixed on her courtyard. He would search for her in the underworld and beyond, wishing only to find her, protect her, and have the chance to love her...
