She is Bai Yin, the world’s leading heart surgeon.
By day, she wields the sharpest scalpel in the world, but only one kind of heart interests her: the unusual ones, the ones hiding secrets.
She is also Nightshade, the most mysterious madam in Haishi.
She owns Haishi’s most extravagant den of indulgence, where every light casts her in irresistible glamour.
Want to see her? Come up with ten million first. She captivates everyone, yet never stops for anyone.
The underworld and the legitimate world alike know her name, but no one has seen both sides of her face.
Until one rainy night, when she removed her mask to bandage a badly wounded man.
He remembered her face, and the beat of her heart.
And she remembered his body.
His body was perfection, every inch of muscle seemingly sculpted with care. She had seen hundreds of hearts, but for the first time, she discovered her own heart racing for someone.
Mu Ye, former international mercenary and the top-ranked assassin in the underground banking world. Cold-blooded, ruthless, and indifferent to women.
For her alone, he was willing to lower every defense and show her his softest side, even as he bared his sharpest fangs.
“I know who you are.” He pinned her against the operating table, dark obsession churning in his eyes. “Dr. Bai, Nightshade’s owner. I want every side of you.”
For the first time, her heart raced out of control for someone.
So there really was someone in this world who loved all of her, including the wounds she dared not show and the past she had buried with her own hands.
Behind their double masks lay unknown histories and pain. In their intense push and pull lay a redemption and devotion between equals.
This is probably life, you make choices just by pushing and pushing.
