[A sweet-on-the-outside, dark-on-the-inside ghostly seme x a pure-hearted, tsundere uke who is dark on the outside and sweet within]
Xuan An had governed the dragon clan for many years. By chance, he rescued a white wyrm from his clanmates' claws and took him in as his younger brother.
His younger brother was gentle and obedient, always putting up with his moods. When danger came, he would silently step in front of him, and even tenderly helped him through his special periods.
As the sun rose and the moon set, Xuan An fell for him. It took everything he had to swallow his pride, but then he caught his younger brother using his position to secretly help the Heavenly Court, the dragons' enemy, hunt down the clan.
The brother who had been snuggling up to him just days ago seemed like a different person. When Xuan An reprimanded him, he didn't stop as he usually would.
Before losing consciousness, Xuan An remembered only his younger brother sighing and answering his question.
"Everything between us before was just an act I put on with you, Brother."

When he opened his eyes again, Xuan An had been reborn as a little dragon.
The good news: He still had the magic power from his previous life.
The bad news: He had become a spirit pet tamed by his dear younger brother.
After making some inquiries, Xuan An learned that his younger brother had earned great merit by infiltrating the dragon clan and was now the highest-ranking deity in the Heavenly Court.
Unacceptable!
Furious, Xuan An immediately began plotting his escape, making trouble wherever he went to vent his anger.
The strange thing was, no matter what trouble he caused, his younger brother would smile as he fixed it all, coddling him like an ancestor.
Then came the day Xuan An tried to run away. A cold golden chain wound around his ankle, and the man who had let himself be ordered around for two lifetimes finally dropped the act, revealing the cruelty in his nature.
"What kind of person does Brother like these days? I'll just pretend to be that again."
