[Male-male leads / fierce face-off / tragic fated romance / fantasy political intrigue]
Beneath a blood-red moon, Li Miao's silver chain strangled the last guardian butterfly. The youngest human regent strode over the butterfly-wing remains and entered the sacred grounds. With a pale fingertip, he lifted the cold chin of the Witch Clan's young heir. "A marriage pact or an edict to exterminate your clan. Which will it be, my butterfly beauty?"
Hilar, the thousand-year holy son of the Butterfly Witches, was forced to shed his silver-patterned sacrificial robes. The cursed butterfly mark at his neck trembled with the golden powder at the corners of his eyes. "You don't want a wife. What you want is a divine parasite that can control life and death." Kneeling amid shattered moonlight and scales of butterfly dust, he watched his nemesis press an icy-blue butterfly blade to his heart, only to hear the devil laugh softly in his ear. "I want to cut open a descendant of the gods and see if a butterfly's heart will beat for a mortal."
On the seventh day of the human army's siege, the young Witch Clan heir imprisoned in the regent's bedroom finally snapped his collar chain. When Li Miao kicked open the door, covered in blood, all he saw was the illusion of butterfly wings floating beneath the crystal chandelier. "A marriage vow woven from lies deserves the truth as its betrothal gift. For instance, the divine spark hidden in your heart, which should have belonged to my elder brother."
The board of power crashed down. Deep within the altar, the frozen truth of the god-slaying, entwined with the bones of the twin witch children sacrificed thirty years ago, slowly came to light. When Li Miao gripped the bloodstained marriage contract and shattered the cursed barrier, Hilar, imprisoned on the throne of thorns, finally revealed a bewitching smile. He let the chains coil around the regent's bleeding throat. "Now it's my turn to ask. Will you be an accomplice in slaying the gods, or... a co-conspirator who shares eternity with me?"
