   Summary

   Meanwhile, in the Jade Palace, Shen Wenlang works late into the night, forcing himself to calm the burning hatred in his chest at the thought of his new wife, lest he do something hasty and kill him without caring about the repercussions. He has fulfilled every ritual obligation, yet each omission—each missing banner, each undrunk sip of wine—whispered his contempt clearly to the entire court. History may record this day as the dragon emperor taking an empress, but it will forever be known how unwanted the union was.

   Or,

   Through Gao Ming’s schemes, Emperor Shen Wenlang’s soul is bound not to his destined mate but to Gao Tu—the Gao family’s illegitimate omega son. Betrayed and furious, Shen Wenlang vows revenge, starting with humiliating and tormenting Gao Tu as his unwanted empress.
