Everyone knows the chilly, aloof Princess Royal is the new emperor’s sharpest blade.
But they don’t know what happens at every palace banquet, in the shadows behind the imperial throne, when the young emperor grips her by the waist.
Amid the haze of wine, he kisses the old scar on her neck, his voice hoarse with laughter:
“When Royal Sister killed your brother for me all those years ago, did this spot turn red for him, too?”
Forced to tilt my head back and endure it, I still let my fingertips brush the lethal spot at the back of the emperor’s neck.
“If Your Majesty wishes to know...”
“Why not go ask your dear imperial brother in the underworld?”
The new emperor’s breathing grows ragged as he pins me against a cold, coiling dragon pillar.
“Then I’ll send Royal Sister... to ask him myself.”
His palm is warm, but pressed against the coldest dagger, which slowly slides in
Only when Prince Zhenbei’s cavalry reaches the border and the nine-tailed fox shadow that resonates with my blood soars into the sky does the young emperor finally learn that the Royal Sister he has feared day and night is the last descendant of the previous dynasty and a holy maiden of the fox clan.
This time, the demoness holding the strings will overturn the game herself!
