Only when Zhao Yuhuan huddled with Qi Yu in the lightless dungeon did she understand how laughable this thing called love was.
The dignified eldest princess of Zhao was forced into a distant marriage, left alone in an empty chamber, and thrown from her horse. The young general she had believed to be pure as a fresh breeze and bright as a clear sky was simply cold by nature.
And the only one who followed her all this way was her personal guard, Qi Yu.
Qi Yu was a slave she had rescued from the fighting pits.
Savage, fierce, and untamed, he was a wolf who devoured marrow from the bones, and an excellent sword besides.
He shouldn't have been left to waste away there. Zhao Yuhuan took him in, and he gave her a lifetime of loyalty.
