Two-faced princess x devoted, flirtatious puppy
*
Wei Zhuo plans for every contingency, but somehow he can never predict Teng Zhiwei.
A noblewoman of high standing gets swept into a perilous mission.
He thinks she’ll back down, but when danger strikes, she’s the first to step forward.
She works diligently and throws herself into the task, seeming utterly loyal.
But Wei Zhuo accidentally discovers her secret.
One night, Teng Zhiwei is working very hard to punch a hole in their ship.
Her expression is fierce.
Her strength is extraordinary.
And that ship... is the one they’re supposed to take across the river tomorrow!
Beneath the silvery moonlight, he looks at the dagger in Teng Zhiwei’s hand and the ferry sinking into the river.
He raises an eyebrow. “Your Highness, what are you...?”
Teng Zhiwei’s eyes dart around, and she puts on her usual sweet smile.
“Fengshi? You’re still awake?”
“Are you out here looking at the moon too?”
Wei Zhuo: ...
The ship behind them has completely sunk, and ripples spread across the calm water.
Wei Zhuo’s gaze falls on them.
Teng Zhiwei grips her dagger tightly and grits her teeth.
“...Please, don’t tell them, okay?”
After that night, Teng Zhiwei and Wei Zhuo suddenly grow close.
Whenever Wei Zhuo says he’s tired, she immediately brings him water.
Whenever Wei Zhuo is injured, she runs faster than anyone else.
She even takes meticulous care of Wei Zhuo’s pigeon.
One day, Wei Zhuo falls into the water and catches a chill.
In his delirium, he keeps murmuring, “Cold.”
She piles on clothes and blankets, but he seems to feel even colder and wraps an arm around her waist.
“...Your Highness, I’m cold.”
His warm breath brushes her waist. He sounds almost as if he’s whining, and Teng Zhiwei’s head goes fuzzy for a moment.
“Th-then what would make you feel warmer?”
“If you hold me, I won’t be cold.”
Teng Zhiwei hesitantly reaches out and lets him pull her into his arms.
“...Are you warm now?”
The man above her smiles, satisfied. “I’m not cold anymore.”
He’s been waiting for this day ever since the ship sank.

Plot-focused blurb:
A secret letter arrives at the imperial palace, sending the court into a panic.
It warns that the prince will be killed within twenty-four hours.
The letter was delivered outside the imperial bedchamber, and no one saw the sender.
The palace is no longer safe.
The emperor immediately orders the prince escorted south to a secure location.
But the three people assigned to protect him have nothing in common.
A commoner, a young lord, and a princess.
Their journey south is anything but smooth. It seems someone is constantly steering them in another direction.
And that person is hiding among the three of them.
Is it the frail, timid princess?
The carefree young lord?
Or the commoner, as blank as a sheet of paper?
In a perilous escape, they suspect one another and keep up a web of lies, playing out an ancient version of Werewolf.
