Summary
Beauty is a burden. Duty is a sentence.
Gao Tu is a nineteen-year-old omega, the rarest and most reclusive "Ice Lotus" in the Empire.
His life, dedicated to books and tranquility, crumbles when an imperial scroll seals his fate: he has been selected as one of the consorts for the feared and ruthless Emperor Shen Wenlang.Known for his calculating coolness and overwhelming alpha dominance, Emperor Wenlang embodies everything Gao Tu most despises: absolute power and lack of emotion. Dragged into the Viper's Nest of the Forbidden Palace, Gao Tu becomes a bargaining chip, an ornament in a gilded cage.
While his heart closes off in a silent revolt, he receives his father's warning: "Be the Ice Lotus that freezes the water, not the one that sinks."Will Gao Tu's ethereal beauty and intelligence be enough to navigate the cruel rules and envious concubines? Or will Emperor Wenlang, who sees him only as a beautiful possession, manage to break the last resistance of the omega he never even asked for?
The Palace awaits. Gao Tu's journey to his forced marriage has just begun.
