Summary
Hua Cheng is the young lord of the Ning Clan, which presides over the famous merchant port, Silver City. When he was 15, the responsibility of a lord was dropped into his lap on the same night that his mother passed away, his father ran off with a concubine, and his two older brothers disappeared. Over the past 4 years, Hua Cheng has become respected and feared, due to his misunderstood mannerisms, as well as his one crimson eye, said to have demonic origins.
Xie Lian was adopted by Jun Wu and raised as his son. Nobody knows that Xie Lian descended from the Xianle royal family, nor should they. Otherwise, he would be hunted down and viciously killed, meeting the same fate as his family had, nearly 21 years ago. Because of this, the prince keeps his true identity a complete secret.
These two have been betrothed since they were children. From the night that their engagement is officially announced, the mystery of Xie Lian's complicated past seems to slowly unfold piece by piece.
Can they survive the trials of secrecy and prejudice, or will their love crumble to ash?

Summary
A moment later, there was a short rustling before it went quiet.
Hua Cheng's demeanor was more upsetting than the rustling leaves. The sound could have come from anything, but Hua Cheng had a very blank expression on his face. The oppressive weight that Xie Lian had so briefly felt began to creep over the forest floor. It rose up like water, wading up their knees, torsos, and up to their heads.
Xie Lian stepped toward Hua Cheng, reaching out a hand to touch his arm. For some reason, he felt like he had to stop him from going after that feeling, or maybe it was an urge to keep him nearby.
When Xie Lian’s fingers touched the skin of Hua Cheng's wrist, he turned to look down at him. His eyes most certainly were red.
_____

Seeking new lands to run to, Xie Lian begins a small village in the woods, hoping to prepare to move his people away from the dreaded forest outside of their walls.

“My A-die is not a liar.” The fists clenched into tight balls, the beet red face turned down to the floor. “But maybe you are, and you lied to him.”

“Maybe you are the liar, father.”

Summary
He’d once tasted a similar pain long ago, but this blade had only grazed him then, and never once desired to leave its mark. It had sulked and begged forgiveness for its transgression, which Xie Lian had freely given. It had, after all, been an accident. Xie Lian hadn’t been its rightful target, and the blade’s killing aura had been tamed just before it struck, leaving him with no lasting effects. That day, there had truly been no harm done.
This time, however, Eming seemed to have driven itself into him entirely on purpose.
Gasping for breath amidst a sea of his own blood, Xie Lian struggles to remember what happened to him—and why Hua Cheng isn't there with him.
