Wesley's Lover

The public always believed that the White Dwarf Emperor and Marshal Wesley were a legendary ruler and minister, each the other's one and only.

But Marshal Wesley himself has something to say.

Dear Your Majesty,

I've worked myself to the bone as your subordinate, but after we got out of bed, you went and insisted on treating me like your empress. That's one hell of a misunderstanding.

1. A completely tragic ending. No happy ending.

2. Maximum angst, both physical and emotional.

3. The shou is forced into sexual impurity; the gong is pure in body and mind.

4. The gong is a taciturn type who can't speak properly the whole time.

5. The unbridgeable gulf between the upper and lower classes.

6. Includes a technological childbirth plotline.

7. This has that old-school forced-love, melodramatic, toxic flavor. Please heed the warnings, heed the warnings, heed the warnings.
